We have phone lines 0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:16.880 open at eight six six nine, eight seven two five 0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:20.200 seventy Coming up In our next segment, you'll hear part 0:01:20.200 --> 0:01:24.400 of my conversation with new special assistant for the Dodgers, 0:01:24.880 --> 0:01:28.880 Clayton Kershaw, and also coming up later in the show, 0:01:28.959 --> 0:01:32.040 Jose Moto will check in. But there's a few things 0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:35.120 about this game that we want to get into first 0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:38.760 and foremost. Okay, number one, we all know in the 0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:40.640 press box there's no cheering. 0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:41.559 But I can. 0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:44.120 Understand if you work for a team and you want 0:01:44.120 --> 0:01:49.200 to cheer, it's still a little unprofessional. I mean, we're 0:01:49.240 --> 0:01:52.280 not cheering here in the radio booth. Some might be 0:01:52.600 --> 0:01:56.000 cheering in different ways, but we're not clapping in this 0:01:56.160 --> 0:02:01.680 radio booth at all. Nobody in the oral Joe Davis 0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:06.400 broadcast booth is clapping. I don't believe anybody in the 0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:09.480 Spanish radio booth. I know for a fact nobody's clapping 0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:13.160 over there. So at the far end of the Dodger 0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:19.880 Stadium press box, here is where sometimes baseball operations of 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:25.080 visiting teams sit happens. They always have a booth reserve. 0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:28.400 Sometimes they choose to sit in there, sometimes they don't. Well, 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:32.080 the Diamondbacks chose to sit in there, and just to 0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:38.120 prove the point that the Dodgers are everybody else's World 0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:41.680 Series and mountain to climb. We're only two games in 0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:47.919 and down the hall after every play made by the Diamondbacks, 0:02:48.040 --> 0:02:53.640 virtually every walk, every hit, every anything that went well 0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:57.919 for the Diamondbacks, you hear a lot of applause coming 0:02:57.960 --> 0:03:00.400 from the far end of the hallway here in the 0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:06.320 press box, which was probably the Diamondbacks baseball operations department, 0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:11.400 no doubt it was their baseball operations department. So, I mean, 0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:15.160 it's fine, they're very invested in their team, but it 0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:19.359 just goes to prove the point that the Dodgers are 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:23.519 and obviously are the team that everybody wants to take down. 0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:26.760 It's only two games into the season and you got 0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:32.240 the opposing team's baseball operations department applauding for every walk, 0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:37.520 every take on a pitch. I mean, come on, really, anyway, 0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:39.960 that's the type of things that are going to go 0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:43.680 on this season between the Dodgers and teams in the NLST, 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:47.480 teams in the National League, and more importantly, across Major 0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:52.440 League Baseball. The Dodgers are everybody else's World Series, and 0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:57.600 tonight the Dodgers beat the Diamondbacks on a night that 0:03:57.680 --> 0:04:01.560 the Dodgers could have lost and were vulnerable to lose, 0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:05.800 especially after Emig Shehen only lasted three and a third innings, 0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:08.560 and the Dodgers had to go to their bullpen tonight 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:13.480 and use a few different relievers like Jack Dryer, Ben Casparius, 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:17.920 Tanner Scott, Alex Vesia and Gardo Enriquez and Edwin Diaz, 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:20.880 so they had to cover a lot of innings tonight 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:25.040 because she threw eighty three pitches with only one out 0:04:25.120 --> 0:04:28.320 in the fourth inning. Jack Dryer did a great job 0:04:28.400 --> 0:04:31.480 like he did last year. He went multiple innings tonight, 0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:34.640 did not give up a run. Ben Casparius, who was 0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:37.640 huge for the Dodgers the second half of or the 0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:41.240 first half of last year, was able to keep the 0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:42.840 Diamondbacks offense down. 0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:45.479 But I really thought there were a couple. 0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:51.160 Of key moments reliever wise in this game, specifically Tanner Scott, 0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:55.400 who came in after Casparius got into some trouble runners 0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:59.279 at first and second. Two outs and he's facing Alec 0:04:59.400 --> 0:05:02.719 Thomas in a tie game. And Alex Thomas, you might say, 0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:05.240 what's the big deal about that guy, Well, he's a 0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:07.919 lefty and he had a very good game tonight. So 0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:11.160 he was swinging the bat really well, and Tanner Scott 0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:13.520 was able to strike him out to end the inning. 0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:17.680 That was huge. That looked like the old Tanner Scott. 0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:21.560 And then it was special because Alex Vesia got to 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:25.160 take the mound tonight at Dodger Stadium and it was 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:29.400 emotionally charged and he was able to do Alex Vesia 0:05:29.520 --> 0:05:32.960 thanks and pitch a scoreless seventh inning. So all of 0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:35.880 those things were really good for the Dodgers tonight. And 0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:40.480 Edwin Diaz made his Dodger debut and recorded his first 0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:44.480 save as a Dodger, and we got to experience the 0:05:44.480 --> 0:05:50.200 theatrical experience of Edwin Diaz and Timmy Trumpet coming through 0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:54.480 the bullpen gates, and the Dodgers had a live trumpet 0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:59.480 player in the outfield on standby. I got word that 0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:04.359 she's Long Beach Tatiana Tait. She's the trumpet player from 0:06:04.520 --> 0:06:07.800 Long Beach who is out there on standby in case 0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:11.640 Edwin Diaz came into the game. So what did you 0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:16.120 think about the first Edwin Diaz Timmy Trumpet entrance? Was 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:20.279 it as electric? Did they give you chills like it 0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:22.560 did in City Field? If you are a Mets fan 0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:26.400 your thoughts on Edwin Diaz and his entrance tonight and 0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:28.880 if you liked it, if you feel like there could 0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:32.240 be more, let me know. Eight six six nine eight 0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:36.320 seven two five seventy is the phone number. Alex Freeland, 0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:40.360 he got the start tonight at second base, and he 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:43.000 delivered in his first start of the year Game two. 0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:46.800 He homered to start a four run rally in the 0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:51.320 Dodgers a third inning there, and also he was able 0:06:51.400 --> 0:06:53.960 to double and score the go ahead run in the 0:06:54.000 --> 0:06:57.159 bottom of the eighth inning. Let's head downstairs right now 0:06:57.240 --> 0:07:00.719 to hear from Young Freeland on sports at LA. 0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:02.920 I'm just happy that we're starting off on a good 0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:10.000 note and everybody feels like ward one and like it's 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:13.400 just exciting to play for this team and in front 0:07:13.400 --> 0:07:16.280 of all these fans. So I'm just enjoying it. 0:07:17.440 --> 0:07:18.080 When you like. 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:20.680 Win an opposition battle of the spring training does make 0:07:20.720 --> 0:07:23.480 a difference to kind of make an impact mesa bat. 0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:28.800 I mean, honestly, I wasn't thinking about any of the 0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:31.040 outside noise. I just tried to have a quality at bat, 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:35.320 like like I've been doing all spring, So nothing really changed, 0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:36.720 just trying to have a quality at that. 0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:38.720 And So is that kind of what you felt when 0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:40.680 you like to go down onto an account and say 0:07:40.760 --> 0:07:42.240 line and get a pitch you can do something with. 0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:44.200 Is that where like the quality at bat stuff kind 0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:44.600 of pays on? 0:07:44.960 --> 0:07:46.280 Yeah, yeah, definitely. 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:50.160 I mean Andy flew out on the first pitch, so 0:07:50.760 --> 0:07:52.600 auto take. So I mean I just tried to have 0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:55.040 a long at bat, you know, get some more pitches 0:07:55.640 --> 0:07:58.800 for that inning. And then it led to that, Well, what. 0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:00.680 Is kind of the mentality like you're in that ninth 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:02.680 spot and you have Show hate behind you, Like, is 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.080 that kind of where the importance of that comes in? 0:08:05.120 --> 0:08:07.320 And kind of yeah, I mean I think it's just 0:08:07.360 --> 0:08:10.840 having quality at bets and getting on base. I mean, Show, 0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:13.160 he's best hitter in all of the MLB, so I 0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:15.600 mean not trying to get on base because there's a 0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:17.840 high chance he's going to hit me in and we 0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:18.600 like runs. 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:21.080 How big is that double in the eighth field too? 0:08:21.120 --> 0:08:22.760 To kind of start that rally the end of the game. 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:24.880 I mean that felt good, but honestly the same thought 0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:26.760 processes just go up there and try and get on 0:08:26.800 --> 0:08:30.200 base for Show, have a quality at bet and try 0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:31.200 to win the game like that. 0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:34.880 Would you make a Edwins entrance with them, that was insane. 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:35.600 I loved it. 0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:36.200 I loved it. 0:08:36.240 --> 0:08:38.280 I mean I loved all the entrances that we've had, 0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:43.560 like Will Klein's on on Thursday. I love that one, 0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:48.080 but everybody's got super cool entrances. But that Edwins was like, oh, yeah, 0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:48.920 that was cool. 0:08:50.480 --> 0:08:53.319 Okay, thanks Alex Freeland. I'm glad you enjoyed it. 0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:56.280 Alex Freeland had a great game tonight, by the way, 0:08:56.559 --> 0:09:00.000 not only his two hits, scoring twice, including scoring himself 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:03.679 off a home run to start that four run third inning, 0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:07.280 but also the double. Like I said, leadoff double turned 0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:10.280 into be the go ahead and run and the run 0:09:10.320 --> 0:09:12.640 that made the difference in the game in the bottom 0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:15.400 of the eighth inning, the leadoff double him getting to 0:09:15.480 --> 0:09:19.160 third base and Kyle Tucker driving him in. But how 0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:24.559 about the defense by the Dodgers tonight, specifically Tucker and Freeland. 0:09:24.840 --> 0:09:27.680 There were a couple of balls hit to right field 0:09:27.760 --> 0:09:30.680 that Kyle Tucker had to hustle and pounce on, and 0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:34.720 he made perfect relay throws two different times to Alex Freeland, 0:09:34.920 --> 0:09:39.640 who also threw two perfect relays to cut down runners, 0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:41.920 the first one a big one at the plate in 0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.280 the second inning, getting Peven Smith and then in the 0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:48.800 fourth inning Alec Thomas trying to stretch a double into 0:09:48.840 --> 0:09:51.960 a triple. A great play by Tucker to Freeland to 0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:56.240 Max Munsey to cut him down as well to help 0:09:56.880 --> 0:10:00.840 manage that game and that inning specifically. So the Dodger 0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:04.480 defense in right field and the relay throws were exceptional tonight, 0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:07.920 from Tucker to Freeland, to Will Smith in the second 0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:10.280 inning and then to Max Munsey in. 0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:11.000 The fourth inning. 0:10:11.360 --> 0:10:15.280 Eight sixty six seven two five seventy is the phone number. 0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:19.320 Dodgers beat the Diamondbacks tonight five to four. Let's go 0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:22.200 out to Johnny. Johnny, you're on Dodger Talk. 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:26.000 How you doing, Hey, David Good I'm driving leaving the 0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:26.760 stadium just now. 0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:27.760 I just got to the freeway. 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:31.280 Uh, what you're Sayingbolt, Edwin Diaz.

So a very cool night all 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:27.040 around for Kerus Shaw, who I'm sure must have been 0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:30.000 feeling a little surreal the last two nights being back 0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:34.199 here at Dodger Stadium seeing all the old the faces 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:38.000 that he saw throughout his entire career, specifically as recently 0:12:38.559 --> 0:12:41.160 as last year. And now he's sitting up in a 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:44.960 suite with Brad Paisley watching the Dodgers. Let's go out 0:12:44.960 --> 0:12:47.680 to John who is at the ballpark tonight.

But she's basically 0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:07.240 I don't know what you would call it, but it's 0:13:07.320 --> 0:13:10.920 Timmy Trumpet that's playing it on the original song. And 0:13:11.280 --> 0:13:13.800 Timmy Trumpet's on tour right now, so he can't just 0:13:13.880 --> 0:13:16.959 be on standby for whenever Edwin Diaz is coming in. 0:13:17.080 --> 0:13:21.520 So the Dodgers found a local trumpet player in Tatiana 0:13:21.600 --> 0:13:25.160 tape and she did a great job playing along with 0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:28.439 Timmy Trumpet tonight, John, did. 0:13:28.240 --> 0:13:30.760 You like the light show?

But they had the lights of the stadium 0:13:55.800 --> 0:13:57.720 flickering and changing colors and all that. 0:13:57.760 --> 0:13:59.560 Oh yeah, yeah, I mean that that that's fun. 0:13:59.600 --> 0:14:01.400 But they need to get the whole LED thing around. 0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:03.120 I think they'll take it to a whole other level. 0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:06.200 All right, all right, I don't know the logistics about 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:08.680 where the LEDs are? All right, John, I mean that's 0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:11.360 two straight nights. Somebody brought that up. I don't know 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:14.160 where it is. I don't know if they're in route 0:14:14.280 --> 0:14:17.120 or not. So uh, they'll be here, trust me, sooner 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:20.960 rather than later. Thanks for the phone call. Geeesh, Nitpicky 0:14:21.040 --> 0:14:23.680 over here. I mean that's that's uh, yeah, when those 0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:27.440 LEDs are here, it'll be uh, it'll be even more 0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:31.800 light terrific at Dodger Stadium or should I say uniclo 0:14:31.960 --> 0:14:33.760 field at Dodger Stadium. 0:14:34.040 --> 0:14:36.440 Let's go out to JD. Who is here at the 0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:37.240 ballpark tonight? 0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:37.480 Hi? 0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:38.960 JD. You're on Dodger Talk. 0:14:40.600 --> 0:14:41.160 Hey Dave. 0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:45.360 That was an awesome night between the ring ceremony that 0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:50.480 started it off and kershawf finally getting his ring, although 0:14:50.520 --> 0:14:52.000 I thought they were just gonna give it to him 0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:53.480 when they had a night for him. So it was 0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:55.040 a nice touch for him to come in and throw 0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:58.160 the first ball out and then Timmy Trumpets was just 0:14:58.400 --> 0:15:02.320 freaking awesome. And I gotta say, if that's something to 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:04.920 look forward to in the ninth inning, that it's a 0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:07.840 tight game and Diaz is gonna close and if he 0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:11.640 has success as a closer after that lead in, and 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:14.000 that's gonna make the part jump, like you know, when 0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:17.320 Eric Ganye was the closer, Yeah, and. 0:15:17.320 --> 0:15:20.040 When Kenny Jansen was the closer California love. 0:15:22.080 --> 0:15:25.000 Yeah, although I think Jansen coming in made people more 0:15:25.000 --> 0:15:26.240 nervous than Kanye. 0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:27.040 Oh. 0:15:27.120 --> 0:15:30.640 Stop at three hundred and fifty saves, jd You stop 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:34.080 that right now. Speaking to Kennley Jansen. He closed out 0:15:34.120 --> 0:15:37.360 his first save for the Detroit Tigers tonight in San Diego. 0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:38.640 How do you feel about that? 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:39.120 John? 0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:42.360 He helped beat the Padres tonight five to two for 0:15:42.480 --> 0:15:46.160 his four hundred and seventy seventh career save. He's just 0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:51.080 two saves away from passing Lee Smith for third all 0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:55.640 time in saves in baseball history. So Edwin Diaz gets 0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:58.800 his first save as a Dodger. Kenley Jansen gets his 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:02.200 first save as a tight her down south in San Diego. 0:16:02.680 --> 0:16:05.600 Let's go out to the OC. Brandon. You're on Dodger Talk. 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:08.800 Can you believe that Brandon John taking a cheap shot 0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:09.840 at Kenley Janssen? 0:16:12.760 --> 0:16:14.240 Yeah, Now that's not good man. 0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:18.120 Kenley's been awesome for us, and I just want. 0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:20.000 To just kind of like say, you know, as far 0:16:20.000 --> 0:16:21.800 as Jimmy trumpets. 0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:25.960 I think that in La and Hollywood that we should have. 0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:30.880 Mariacci's played big time. Mariacci's like six to eight trump 0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:33.480 It's playing while he comes out. And I'd like to 0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:36.200 see the the lights go out a little sooner, and 0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:38.520 i'd like to see the music starts sooner too. 0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:40.080 But other than. 0:16:39.960 --> 0:16:43.280 That, Yeah, you know the song, the song, it starts 0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:46.560 out low with a little drum beat, right, a bass drum, 0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:49.720 So you really got to I can't believe I'm saying 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:53.440 this make it louder when the song first starts, or 0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:56.600 you just got to hit it running. But yeah, uh 0:16:56.640 --> 0:16:59.200 that's the way the song starts. Now you want the 0:16:59.240 --> 0:17:02.800 mariachi said Dodger Stadium, So you want these trumpet players 0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:06.439 on standby just in case Edwin Diaz does come in. 0:17:06.520 --> 0:17:09.760 I mean that's not going to happen every night. So 0:17:09.920 --> 0:17:15.200 you want mariachi bands on stand by every Dodger home game. 0:17:15.280 --> 0:17:16.280 Is that what you're asking for? 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:16.760 Brandon? 0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:19.560 Yes, yes, only because. 0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:22.000 Kind of brought it together. 0:17:22.600 --> 0:17:25.560 And I think Fernando Mania is like coming back, and 0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:26.679 I just love. 0:17:26.560 --> 0:17:26.960 To see it. 0:17:27.040 --> 0:17:27.960 I'd love to see it. 0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:31.760 Okay, I don't think Fernando media is coming back, Brandon. 0:17:31.840 --> 0:17:34.239 But yeah, I get what you're saying. You know what 0:17:34.280 --> 0:17:34.720 I would do. 0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:37.600 I would find a way to get Timmy Trumpet to 0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:40.840 get on camera, do his thing on the trumpet, play 0:17:40.840 --> 0:17:42.800 it up on the video boards like you see these 0:17:42.840 --> 0:17:46.439 other celebs. I would have Timmy Trumpet, you know, a 0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:50.159 close one shot with the trumpet in the foreground and 0:17:50.320 --> 0:17:53.600 him playing it.
