Speaker 1: For the back to back World Champions of Baseball.
Speaker 2: One of the greatest runs in the history of baseball.
Speaker 1: Immortality is within their reach.
Speaker 3: Incredible and while others make excuses.
Speaker 4: The only reason the Dodgers are doing this because they
Speaker 4: can they print money.
Speaker 1: The Dodgers just can't continue.
Speaker 5: It's not fair.
Speaker 6: Are making plans.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a singular focus on.
Speaker 6: Controlling what they can control.
Speaker 7: Now your pregame host of the World Champion La Todgers, Tam.
Speaker 3: Kats Hi, everybody, and welcome in to Morongo Casino. Dodgers
Speaker 3: on deck on this Tuesday afternoon, June the ninth, as
Speaker 3: you're back to back World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers
Speaker 3: are on the road in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, as they take
Speaker 3: on the Pirates. Dodgers forty two and twenty four on
Speaker 3: the season in the first place top the NL West,
Speaker 3: seven and a half games up on the Diamondbacks and
Speaker 3: the Padres in the division. After taking two or three
Speaker 3: over the weekend in the Freeway series against the Angels,
Speaker 3: the Dodgers now head east. First stop Pittsburgh, Eric Lower
Speaker 3: on the mound, first pitching p and C Park is
Speaker 3: coming up at three forty between that and now we
Speaker 3: got a lot to get to here on Marongo Casino
Speaker 3: Dodgers on deck, you're gonna hear from Image and who
Speaker 3: had a rough outing on Sunday at the Ravine. We'll
Speaker 3: check in with Kirsten Watson. Of course, we got your
Speaker 3: magical moment. Charlie Steiner stops by. We'll preview this pitching
Speaker 3: matchup David vat Sego's one on one with his weekly
Speaker 3: chat with the manager Dave Roberts. That's coming up in
Speaker 3: just a little bit, and we'll head out, of course
Speaker 3: to the Galloping Ford Broadcast booth with Tim Nevert and
Speaker 3: Rick Monday. Well, the Dodgers won on Friday against the
Speaker 3: Angels to make it four straight this season.
Speaker 5: Then they won on Saturday.
Speaker 3: They were a five zero series lead against the Angels
Speaker 3: with a chance to sweep the season series. On Sunday,
Speaker 3: Emmett she and got the ball and immediately ran into
Speaker 3: trouble as he lasted an inning in a third, giving
Speaker 3: up two runs on three hits while walking to the
Speaker 3: Angels jumped out to a two to nothing lead. Dodgers
Speaker 3: cut that in half in the bottom of the third.
Speaker 3: On Kyle Talker RBI Ground out that made it a
Speaker 3: two to one Halos lead. But then the Angels really
Speaker 3: pulled away. In the fourth Rivero a two run single
Speaker 3: made it four to one. Then the Angels tacked on
Speaker 3: more with two in the top half of the fifth inning.
Speaker 5: Dodgers down six to one.
Speaker 3: As they go to the bottom half of the sixth inning,
Speaker 3: when they finally cut into the offensive groove, Dalton rushing
Speaker 3: with a big blast.
Speaker 5: To make it a six to four game.
Speaker 4: The pitch rushing hangs back, lifts it in the ore
Speaker 4: to right field. The Dell is on the warning track.
Speaker 5: He's at the wall. Pits gone. Tolten rushing with a.
Speaker 4: Three run homer is a home run of the season,
Speaker 4: makes it six to four.
Speaker 6: And things just got interesting.
Speaker 5: Yes they did.
Speaker 3: Is a six to four Angels lead. Then Ward with
Speaker 3: a solo home run to right center field.
Speaker 5: That made it a one run game.
Speaker 3: On Ward's second home run of the season, Dodgers found
Speaker 3: themselves down six to five, right back in it. It
Speaker 3: was a bullpen gave the rest of the way. However,
Speaker 3: in the seventh the Angels erupted and Joe Adell got
Speaker 3: it started.
Speaker 4: So the kids are just gonna get a kick out
Speaker 4: of it. That's the major point. First pitch to Joe Adell,
Speaker 4: launched the left and halfway up to pavilion. Joe Adell,
Speaker 4: the number six hitter, with a two run bomb off
Speaker 4: Jonathan Hernandez and the Angels get some breathing room right back.
Speaker 5: It's now eight to five.
Speaker 6: This was not a squeaker out of the ballpark.
Speaker 5: Jo Adell.
Speaker 3: The two run home run made it a three run deficit.
Speaker 3: Had just got worse Sebastian Rivero. Then an RBI single
Speaker 3: made it a nine to five Angels lead. Then Zach
Speaker 3: Netto with a three run home run to make it
Speaker 3: a twelve to five Angels lead.
Speaker 5: That Halo scored six.
Speaker 3: Runs in the top half of the seventh and they
Speaker 3: go on and win it big, thirteen to five. Rivero,
Speaker 3: the backup catcher for the Angels, goes five for five
Speaker 3: with six hits in the game. Meanwhile, the Dodgers we
Speaker 3: ended up losing the game despite five runs on eleven
Speaker 3: hits and a couple of home runs from Ward and rushing.
Speaker 3: Dodgers dropped the finale of the three game set, but
Speaker 3: they still win the series, taking two of three at
Speaker 3: the Ravine. After a day off yesterday, Dodgers back at
Speaker 3: it at forty two and twenty four, first place atop
Speaker 3: the division, and now they head to Pittsburgh for a
Speaker 3: three game series against the Pirates.
Speaker 5: Eric Lower and Paul Schemes.
Speaker 3: The pitching matchup in the series opener, first pitch at
Speaker 3: three forty With more we head out to the galloping
Speaker 3: Ford broadcast booth as we welcome in Tim Neverett and
Speaker 3: Rick Monday.
Speaker 5: Guys, Thank you very much.
Speaker 6: Tim.
Speaker 2: A little bit overcast and humid here in Pittsburgh at
Speaker 2: PNC Park on a good night for baseball is the
Speaker 2: Dodgers take on the Pittsburgh Pirates for the first time
Speaker 2: this year. Left hander Eric Lower will make his third
Speaker 2: start with the Dodgers. Dodgers have won each of his
Speaker 2: first two starts. Overall between the Dodgers in Toronto, Lower's
Speaker 2: numbers two and five and a five to seven four
Speaker 2: earn run average. Paul Skins the right hander they're rainning
Speaker 2: Cy Young winner in the National League six and five
Speaker 2: with a two eighty three earn run average. His last
Speaker 2: four starts have not been very good. He's zero in
Speaker 2: three with an ERA of almost five, and he is
Speaker 2: looking to get off the Schneid here tonight, but the
Speaker 2: Dodgers are hoping to give him another loss in the
Speaker 2: first game of this three game set. And mo a
Speaker 2: day off yesterday for the Dodgers important they get the
Speaker 2: rest as they get set for this road trip game
Speaker 2: one tonight in Pittsburgh and then they'll be in Chicago
Speaker 2: against the White Sox over the weekend.
Speaker 8: Yeah, the Dodgers have been a very good team on
Speaker 8: the road. They're twenty and twelve, and if we look
Speaker 8: at their recent record, I mean he's looked back to
Speaker 8: the thirteenth of May. They've won eighteen to the last
Speaker 8: twenty four games, and in that period of time, they
Speaker 8: have scored one hundred and thirty seven runs. Now, what's
Speaker 8: significant about that. Only one team, that being Milwaukee Brewers,
Speaker 8: has scored more runs in that time. But if we
Speaker 8: talk about runs and we talk about teams that don't
Speaker 8: take them for granted, I think the Pittsburgh Pirates are
Speaker 8: that team. Oh, they're in third place in the Central
Speaker 8: Division of the National League. But tim when you look
Speaker 8: at the numbers, they're fifth in hitting, their fourth in runs.
Speaker 8: They would like to improve. In team Era, they're in
Speaker 8: the middle of the pack right there. But I'll say this,
Speaker 8: if you let them get on base, they're going to
Speaker 8: steal bases. They've already stolen sixty five bases.
Speaker 2: They've pirate at sixty five holes as if you will.
Speaker 2: And when you look at this team in the recent
Speaker 2: history with the Dodgers, they give the Dodgers fits. Pittsburgh
Speaker 2: plays the Dodgers tough. They've won a lot of games
Speaker 2: in the last couple of years against.
Speaker 8: La Yeah, the Pirates quite frankly, one of the things
Speaker 8: that they've improved upon they do not beat themselves as
Speaker 8: we saw there for a number of years.
Speaker 6: And the other part too, is they know full.
Speaker 8: Well you've got back to back world champions coming into town.
Speaker 8: They will elevate the competitive juices. There's no ifens and
Speaker 8: butts about it. There's going to be a bigger crowd
Speaker 8: because the Dodgers are in town as well. The Dodgers
Speaker 8: need to take care of business. They start seven and
Speaker 8: a half games in front of both Arizona and San
Speaker 8: Diego in the Western Division, and the Dodgers the only
Speaker 8: team in the West now that has a winning record
Speaker 8: in the last ten games they played.
Speaker 2: And the story of this afternoon Center is around catching.
Speaker 2: Will Smith not in the lineup. Dalton Rushing is again
Speaker 2: and he's batting eight and not sure if Smith is
Speaker 2: going to play at all in this series, still with
Speaker 2: a neck issue. The Dodgers haven't ruled out an il stint,
Speaker 2: but he is still active as of right now.
Speaker 8: Well, you know these are my words, not anybody with
Speaker 8: the Dodgers. This is becoming more and more of a concern,
Speaker 8: at least the way I look at it. If you're
Speaker 8: not planning on maybe even starting in this series, are
Speaker 8: you going to take a chance in running short?
Speaker 1: Now?
Speaker 8: What happens and we keep your fingers crossed it does
Speaker 8: not happen. But for Dalton Rushing, he's doing the catching tonight.
Speaker 8: He will bat eighth. He's been hot as far as
Speaker 8: overall average and the home runs. But if he gets
Speaker 8: nicked up, who's the backup guy? If Will Smith either
Speaker 8: cannot answer the bell or you don't want him back
Speaker 8: there very long at all, the Dodgers have some tough
Speaker 8: decisions and we hope that that Will Smith feels better
Speaker 8: in a hurry.
Speaker 2: Now Dodgers hope that's not an issue this series. But
Speaker 2: again Rushing, he's getting the start once again here tonight,
Speaker 2: Paul Skeen's Eric Lower that's the pitching matchup game one
Speaker 2: of the three game set here in Pittsburg.
Speaker 5: Jim, all right, thank you guys.
Speaker 3: As we counting down to first pitch, Dodger fans get

Speaker 3: Your Tawny Rewind coming up, and curios to Watson from
Speaker 3: Sports at LA. A lot to get to as we
Speaker 3: lead you up to Dodgers and Pirates on this Tuesday
Speaker 3: first pitch at three point forty. I'm Tim Kats's the
Speaker 3: back to back world champion Dodgers audio an hour.
Speaker 7: Yeah, this is Morongo Casino Dodgers Hunting game.
Speaker 1: On your home for La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 3: It's the Dodgers and the Pirates on this Tuesday afternoon.
Speaker 3: Eric Lower and Paul Schemes the pitching matchup. First pitch
Speaker 3: from P and C Park, coming up at three forty.
Speaker 1: This is the Otani rewhy.
Speaker 4: On one two. Otani will half swing roller diving stop
Speaker 4: at third but Oltani's gonna hustle out an indfield hit.
Speaker 4: Excellent effort at third base by magical to get there
Speaker 4: diving toward the.
Speaker 6: Line, but old Tani has his second hit of the day.
Speaker 5: Show Hey.
Speaker 3: Otani goes two for five with the run scored on Sunday,
Speaker 3: now hitting three to oh two on the season, four
Speaker 3: seventeen on base percentage. However, the Dodgers lost big to
Speaker 3: the Angels on Sunday at the Ravine, thirteen to five.
Speaker 7: This is Kirston's corner with Kirston Watson.
Speaker 3: Hey Kirson now joins us from Pittsburg before the Dodgers
Speaker 3: and brought to you by Cars Cars for Kids, Dot Org.
Speaker 3: All right, Currison, another day and another game with know
Speaker 3: Will Smith.
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is now three in a row.
Speaker 9: And then of course there was the off day yesterday.
Speaker 9: So for Will Smith, we know that the other day
Speaker 9: when he was scratched. He was dealing with some next stiffness,
Speaker 9: and Dave Roberts had said he thought it had maybe
Speaker 9: come from just how he slept, because it's still bothering him.
Speaker 9: They are now deciding if they want to have some imaging.
Speaker 9: There is the possibility that he could be placed on
Speaker 9: the IL and it would be backdated.
Speaker 1: He was able to.
Speaker 9: Take some swings as well as play catch this afternoon,
Speaker 9: but Dave shared with us that just something still doesn't
Speaker 9: feel right for will Smith. So you know, Dave said,
Speaker 9: for them to put him back in the lineup, they
Speaker 9: want him to have one full day in which he
Speaker 9: feels good. And so, because they're not there just yet,
Speaker 9: the earliest we likely will see him if they don't
Speaker 9: decide to put him on the IL, would then be
Speaker 9: in Game three of this series on Thursday. So then
Speaker 9: they could give him tomorrow to see how he feels,
Speaker 9: give him that full day to decide if he's ready
Speaker 9: to get back there.
Speaker 5: Dalt Russians then a nice job in his absence.
Speaker 3: But today, collectively, Kirston the Dodgers got a tough hole
Speaker 3: here against Paul Schemes.
Speaker 9: Yeah, you know what Paul is, He's a one of
Speaker 9: a kind talent for so many reasons, and even how
Speaker 9: I love what Dave Roberts was saying about him this afternoon,
Speaker 9: because obviously with him being having been a National League
Speaker 9: All Star and due to the success of the Dodgers
Speaker 9: and winning the World Series, that means the Dodgers coaching
Speaker 9: staff has been Dave Roberts has been the manager for
Speaker 9: the National League and the All Star Game, and so
Speaker 9: he's gotten the chance, obviously not too much, but he's
Speaker 9: gotten the chance to spend time with Paul's kens from
Speaker 9: that managerial experience of the All Star Game, and he
Speaker 9: said that what he's learned from him it's not only
Speaker 9: is the stuff. It's high octane, it's you know, he's
Speaker 9: lights out. He has such a massive stature on the mound.
Speaker 9: But he's also the ultimate competitor. And so when you're
Speaker 9: facing a guy like that, obviously you don't want to
Speaker 9: match his energy in the sense one, it is a
Speaker 9: control that he has, but like you don't want to
Speaker 9: match because you don't want to.
Speaker 5: Get out of yourself. But also you're gonna have to.
Speaker 9: Find ways to take advantage of the mistake if there
Speaker 9: are mistakes. So looking at this series. It is going
Speaker 9: to be, I should say, looking at this matchup tonight,
Speaker 9: is going to be a very tall task for the
Speaker 9: Dodgers offense. We've seen how the group is. You know,
Speaker 9: they're taking quality at bats, but there have been games
Speaker 9: where it's their lights out, and then there have been
Speaker 9: other games where it's either one inning they get going,
Speaker 9: maybe two innings, and then it can be a little
Speaker 9: bit quiet. So the hope is to find ways to
Speaker 9: build innings, but everyone has made it clear that that
Speaker 9: is going to be a challenging thing to do, especially
Speaker 9: in this one tonight.
Speaker 5: No doubt about it.
Speaker 3: Dodgers are up for the TASKO, Kirsten. We appreciate it.
Speaker 3: We'll check out with you after the game. Still they
Speaker 3: come here on Marongo Casino Dodgers on deck. We'll hear
Speaker 3: from the manager, Dave Roberts as David Vassego goes one

Speaker 9: When you look at did you find that that was
Speaker 9: stuff on your end? Was it something you were feeling?
Speaker 9: Just what do you think led to it?
Speaker 10: Probably more execution and stuff. Felt felt pretty good early,
Speaker 10: but yeah, just executing, especially with two strikes, just.
Speaker 6: Not very good.
Speaker 9: How frustrating was this one? Just considering you have been
Speaker 9: really trending in the right direction, even your last one,
Speaker 9: you felt like you, you know, we're back to where

Speaker 3: All right, DV Freddie Freeman closing in on a career milestone.
Speaker 11: Yeah, only two hits away.
Speaker 12: Tim from career number twenty five hundred in his career
Speaker 12: and there's only been a handful of players since two
Speaker 12: thousand to achieve twenty five hundred hits in their career.
Speaker 12: The fastest to do in the last twenty five years
Speaker 12: is Ichiro Suzuki, who reached twenty five hundred hits in
Speaker 12: eighteen one. Hundred and seventeen games. This will be Freddy
Speaker 12: Freeman's two thousand, two hundred and forty third career game.
Speaker 12: And let's not forget Freddy could have got to the
Speaker 12: s milestone a lot sooner if it wasn't for the
Speaker 12: twenty twenty pandemic season. Obviously, only sixty games. In sixty
Speaker 12: games that year, Freddy Freeman had seventy three hits, So
Speaker 12: around that time of his career, he was getting two
Speaker 12: hundred hits every season, so at least one hundred hits
Speaker 12: shy in that season that was only sixty games where
Speaker 12: he won the National League MVP. But yes, he needs
Speaker 12: two hits tonight to have twenty five hundred hits, which
Speaker 12: is certainly something special.
Speaker 3: Maybe he gets it done tonight, that'd be pretty cool.

Speaker 12: Yeah, he was our guest on Off Day Dodger Talk
Speaker 12: last night. Tim, and he finished his career playing for
Speaker 12: the Angels Triple A team in Salt Lake City, and
Speaker 12: he clarified the so called confusion about whether or not
Speaker 12: he retired, unretired, and then retired again.
Speaker 13: The way it all went down was kind of strange.
Speaker 13: I didn't I wasn't anticipating making it public, and then
Speaker 13: it ended up getting leaked, I guess, and then and
Speaker 13: then people thought I was unretiring and it was like
Speaker 13: kind of embarrassing. So then I was like, okay, now
Speaker 13: I have to say something. But no, it was all fine.
Speaker 13: It was It was cool after I'm made the post
Speaker 13: or after it came out, seeing all the support. I
Speaker 13: got a lot of very nice texts, and yeah, it's
Speaker 13: cool to to see all the love, especially from Dodgers fans.
Speaker 13: Obviously playing almost ten years with them and you know,
Speaker 13: still I still think they're the best fans in baseball.
Speaker 13: And yeah, it's it always feels good to know that
Speaker 13: you were appreciated.
Speaker 12: So no confusion on Chris Taylor's and Tim he was
Speaker 12: retiring after getting hit by a pitch and fracturing his
Speaker 12: left forearm. To hear the full conversation with Chris Taylor
Speaker 12: some official closure closure to his career, you can find
Speaker 12: it on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 6: All right, David.
Speaker 3: The pitching matchup today has Eric Lauer making his third
Speaker 3: start as a Dodger against Paul Schemes. Schemes has been
Speaker 3: struggling as of late, but he's still Paul ski.
Speaker 12: Yeah, he's winless in his last four starts. And I
Speaker 12: ran into one of the guys that he works with
Speaker 12: and he said, yes, Skeens needs a win tonight, and
Speaker 12: here's something to try to get the karma going in
Speaker 12: his way. Last night, Paul Skeenes was driving by a
Speaker 12: local Pittsburgh parking reck where they were having little leaguers practice,
Speaker 12: and he parked in the parking lot, called one of
Speaker 12: his managers and said, Hey, do you think it's okay
Speaker 12: if I go out and play catch with these kids?
Speaker 11: And the guy responded and said, yeah, of course. He
Speaker 11: goes out plays catch with these.
Speaker 12: Little leaguers that are practicing for two hours in some
Speaker 12: parking wreck at Pittsburgh. Signs autographs, takes a photo and
Speaker 12: it goes viral, so he's trying to get some good
Speaker 12: karma going his way facing the back to back champs.
Speaker 3: Well, hopefully that karma doesn't start until after tonight's start
Speaker 3: against the Dodger's great Stuff. Dave will check back in

Speaker 3: one hundred years. Hofey hot Dogs, local and so great.
Speaker 3: When we continue here on Dodgers on Deck, we will
Speaker 3: check in with Charlie Steiner, so he leads up to
Speaker 3: first pitch from Pittsburgh Dodgers and Pirates. I'm Tim Kates
Speaker 3: is the back to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 7: This is Marongo Casino, Dodgers.
Speaker 1: On Tap on your home for the blue all season long.
Speaker 3: HiT's the Dodgers and Pirates on this Tuesday afternoon, the
Speaker 3: start of a three game series from Pittsburgh. Eric Lower,
Speaker 3: the left hander, goes for the Dodgers. Paul Skeen's big
Speaker 3: right hander out Oltro. We'll go for the Pirates. Time
Speaker 3: now for the Verizon startup, as we are thirty five
Speaker 3: minutes away from the start of the game. Now, Verizon,
Speaker 3: you can lock in that low price for three years
Speaker 3: so you can save big. Visit your So Cal Verizon
Speaker 3: store today. We say hello to Charlie Steiner.
Speaker 14: All right, Tim, the road trip is underwey the first
Speaker 14: of a three game series with the Pirates, and then
Speaker 14: it's onto the South side of Chicago this weekend with
Speaker 14: the White Sox. The Dodgers begin tonight at forty two
Speaker 14: and twenty four first place in the National League West,
Speaker 14: seven and a half in front of Arizona and San Diego,
Speaker 14: and the Padres continue to get lost at sea, while
Speaker 14: the Pirates at thirty four and thirty two, they find
Speaker 14: themselves in third place in the National League Central, eight
Speaker 14: behind first place Milwaukee. And of course the Brewers have
Speaker 14: been hot all year. Well, your since the Dodgers now
Speaker 14: hitting the road, gonna see the Pirates for the first
Speaker 14: time where they're actually pretty good, and so too. Are
Speaker 14: the White Sox interesting road trip ahead?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 8: I think so, and do not discount to Pittsburgh Pirates.
Speaker 8: For example, the Dodgers, they have the best team batting average.
Speaker 6: In Major League Baseball. They hit two sixty two.
Speaker 8: Well, the Pirates, that you think about, maybe be in
Speaker 8: the bottom part, you know, their fifth best. They're also
Speaker 8: fourth best in run scores you were alluding to a
Speaker 8: moment ago. What they can improve upon is their earned
Speaker 8: run average. They're right in the middle of the back
Speaker 8: at fifteen. The Dodgers have the best era collectively, starters
Speaker 8: and relievers in Major League Baseball. So for the Pirates,
Speaker 8: I mean, they're looking at a wild card position if
Speaker 8: they can. They're drawing a few more fans this year.
Speaker 8: And this is a pall club. Do not take them
Speaker 8: for granted, especially in their home ballpark. They're three games
Speaker 8: above five hundred here at PNC. But this is a
Speaker 8: pall club that believes in themselves. And as we know,
Speaker 8: you bring a back to back world champion team into town,
Speaker 8: it is going to uplift the competitive balance and that
Speaker 8: other dugout over for the Pirates.
Speaker 14: Last year, the Pirates beat the Dodgers four out of six.
Speaker 14: So Eric lower is going to get the start tonight,
Speaker 14: his third with the Dodgers two and five, a five
Speaker 14: seventy four er. His last start last Tuesday, couple of
Speaker 14: earned runs and four and two thirds, didn't get a decision.
Speaker 14: And then there's Paul Schemes. Schemes six and five a
Speaker 14: three point zho nine er. But the Pirates have lost
Speaker 14: he should his last four starts, and in those four
Speaker 14: starts he's zero and three with an er if nearly five.
Speaker 6: What in the world has happened to Paul Steen?
Speaker 8: Yeah, and our people, Well, first, of all, the fastball
Speaker 8: is there. I mean he averages right at ninety seven
Speaker 8: point eight those ninety eight miles an hours what he
Speaker 8: averages on that end of it. He also uses the
Speaker 8: change up, and the change up has really been a big,
Speaker 8: big pitch. Now people starting to figure out maybe a
Speaker 8: pattern that he is pitching, because when he's a head
Speaker 8: in the count is just a one thirty eight batting
Speaker 8: average against. But when he's behind in the count now
Speaker 8: this year, it's two seventy, and those numbers just don't
Speaker 8: really correspond to what we've seen Paul Skans in the
Speaker 8: early going of his career, not that he's been here
Speaker 8: for a long time, but boys, he ever made an impression.
Speaker 14: He has been intimidating out on the hill. Hasten to
Speaker 14: shut myself up and say he's a young Nolan Ryan.
Speaker 6: He's not a young Nolan Ryan.
Speaker 14: But what he is is a power pitcher who certainly
Speaker 14: has his mark.
Speaker 8: Yeah he is, But if we look at the last
Speaker 8: four starts, he's starting to come down looks human because
Speaker 8: he's zero and three in that particular time as the
Speaker 8: Ras almost five given eleven runs last twenty innings, and
Speaker 8: opposing hitters are hitting two ninety one in the last
Speaker 8: four starts, and hopefully the Dodgers have a plan to
Speaker 8: be able to attack ball Skins, who's had good success
Speaker 8: against the Dodgers and every other team. Quite frankly, he's
Speaker 8: facing his young career.
Speaker 14: So the Dodger pitching has carried the freight to this
Speaker 14: point this year three seventeen RA, which is the lowest
Speaker 14: in Major League Baseball.
Speaker 6: The starter's collective.
Speaker 14: Eras two ninety best in baseball, and the relievers three
Speaker 14: sixty six er, and they've had thirty eight quality starts,
Speaker 14: so the pitching has been right on the mark all year.
Speaker 14: Pirate pitching is okay, middle of the pack of four
Speaker 14: to oh three earn run average. But what they are is,
Speaker 14: as you mentioned now, they're becoming interesting. They're becoming relevant,
Speaker 14: it seems like for the first time in a long time.
Speaker 8: Yeah, and they're also stopping some surges offensively of other
Speaker 8: teams because the batting average against is the eighth lowest
Speaker 8: in baseball to two thirty one. Who has the lowest. Well,
Speaker 8: they've got blue uniforms on at least trend in blue,
Speaker 8: that being the Dodgers, who've allowed opposing batters to hit
Speaker 8: just two toh eight to this particular points, there's I've
Speaker 8: been a whole lot of threat offensively. The Dodgers obviously
Speaker 8: like to continue to rule. They've been good on the road.
Speaker 8: They're twenty and twelve away from the West Coast and
Speaker 8: hopefully they can build upon that on this six game
Speaker 8: road trip.
Speaker 14: Dodgers have a pretty good starter tomorrow. Fellow named shoe
Speaker 14: Hee Otani. Since May twenty ninth is last nine games.
Speaker 14: All he's doing is hitting four to sixty two. He's
Speaker 14: eighteen out of his last thirty nine. And so while
Speaker 14: the Dodgers begin the first of three with the Pirates
Speaker 14: in Pittsburgh, Cincinnati is at San Diego.
Speaker 6: And the thing.
Speaker 14: About the Padres, they have fallen out of bed. Back
Speaker 14: on May eighteenth, they led the division by half a game.
Speaker 14: Since then, they've lost sixteen of their last nineteen. That's them,
Speaker 14: the Dodgers and the Pirates. They're getting ready for the
Speaker 14: first of this three game series coming up.
Speaker 5: Tim all right, thank you, Charlie.
Speaker 3: You're leaning you up to first pitch on this Tuesday afternoon.
Speaker 3: Dodgers Baseball presented by Uniclow Field at Dodgers Stadium. Visit
Speaker 3: Uniclow dot Com slash us still to come here on
Speaker 3: Dodgers on Deck, we'll preview this pitching matchup. Tim and
Speaker 3: Rick will have the keys to the game coming up shortly.
Speaker 3: But up next we go High and Tight, the weekly
Speaker 3: Conversation with the manager, Dave Roberts. That is next, leading
Speaker 3: up to Dodgers Empirates from Pittsburgh. I'm Tim Kates is
Speaker 3: the back to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 7: As we were saying, yes, it's Marongo Casino, Dodgers on
Speaker 7: Deck on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 3: It's the Dodgers and Pirates from Pittsburgh.
Speaker 5: Eric Lower Paul Skimes.
Speaker 3: The pitching matchup Dodgers Baseball, brought to you by Shaky's
Speaker 3: Pizza Parlor, the official pizza partner of the Dodgers Audio Broadcast.
Speaker 5: When it's game day, it's group day and sh.
Speaker 7: And now what will likely be vass a fielding insults
Speaker 7: from a Dodger player.
Speaker 5: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 12: This is High and Tight, the Dodgers kicking off a
Speaker 12: six game road trip, and we're joined right now by
Speaker 12: the manager. Our Managers Meeting brought to you by Downy
Speaker 12: Hunday and that's the one and only Dave Roberts.
Speaker 11: Dave, thanks again for the time.
Speaker 15: It's good to be with you, Dave. We've got a
Speaker 15: family trip here. So we've got Pittsburgh, we've got Chicago,
Speaker 15: the South Side, the White Sox, so it's gonna be
Speaker 15: a good road trip. It's gonna be a lot of fun.
Speaker 15: And yeah, we're playing good baseball.
Speaker 12: You are the guy that sets the tone for the
Speaker 12: family of the Dodgers, and you're gonna be really trying
Speaker 12: to focus on family and your job because you're flying
Speaker 12: back to be part of your daughter's graduation this weekend.
Speaker 6: I am. I am.
Speaker 15: So I've got three games here and then I'll get
Speaker 15: the first two in Chicago, and then I'll fly back
Speaker 15: to my daughter's graduation and on Saturday night, which is
Speaker 15: on Sunday, and she's graduating from Stanford. So I'm really proud.
Speaker 15: And it is weird though, because you never want to
Speaker 15: miss a game, but I think that this is a
Speaker 15: good reason.
Speaker 12: Hey, the Rangers manager Skip Schumacher left the team for
Speaker 12: a day to be at his son's high school graduation.
Speaker 12: What's the balance for you, because obviously you have a
Speaker 12: lot of responsibility, but also your family comes first.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 15: I think the one thing for me is that the
Speaker 15: world has evolved, and many can argue not in a
Speaker 15: good way, in some ways good, some ways bad. But
Speaker 15: I do think in a lot of ways from the
Speaker 15: workplace sense of things, it's more open to kind of
Speaker 15: people spending time with their families and knowing that those
Speaker 15: moments are important, they're fleeting and so you know the
Speaker 15: job is going to get done with or without you.
Speaker 15: And so for me, I encourage my coaches to enjoy,
Speaker 15: you know, graduations, things like that. One of our coaches
Speaker 15: had to leave for a surgery for their daughter, and
Speaker 15: I it certainly welcome that because there's nothing more important
Speaker 15: than family. And it also I think when you get
Speaker 15: to do moments with your family and other things that
Speaker 15: are really important, I think you do your job better
Speaker 15: and then you feel better about the people you work with.
Speaker 11: And for you've done this before with your son, Cole.
Speaker 12: I'm curious when you're at your daughter's graduation, will you
Speaker 12: be looking at your phone a lot? How are you
Speaker 12: able to be present.
Speaker 11: In the moment.
Speaker 15: That's a great question. So I don't know what I
Speaker 15: did for Cole's graduation. But Emmy, it is going to
Speaker 15: be a day game, and I think they are going
Speaker 15: to overlap, so I think I might just try to
Speaker 15: put my phone down be completely present.
Speaker 12: Dave Roberts is our guest in Pittsburgh. The Dodgers will
Speaker 12: have Shoey Otani on the mound again. He's coming off
Speaker 12: a really good start in Arizona, but obviously we started
Speaker 12: to see the blister that he'd been dealing with. Where's
Speaker 12: that at, David, is there any concern possum?
Speaker 15: Our trainer does a good job with the blisters, and
Speaker 15: he's been with the Dodger since I played for the Dodgers,
Speaker 15: and he is a clubhouse favorite, and he says that
Speaker 15: the blister is totally manageable, totally fine. Uh, you know,
Speaker 15: not a big deal at all. So I expect show
Speaker 15: Hay to be good on Wednesday.
Speaker 12: I have random thoughts and with the All Star Game
Speaker 12: and the voting going on right now, Showho Tani most
Speaker 12: certainly will be voted in and maybe the top vote getter.
Speaker 12: But since he is pitching again, I'm curious, with the
Speaker 12: game being in Philadelphia, Sanchez having such a great year,
Speaker 12: would you rule out completely Otani possibly being the starting
Speaker 12: pitcher for the National League or since you're the guy
Speaker 12: and the Dodgers have greater aspirations, that's not something you
Speaker 12: would you would venture into.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 15: Yeah, I don't know how. You know, obviously you're looking
Speaker 15: at you know Sanchez, You're looking at Miz, You're looking
Speaker 15: at Shoe.
Speaker 6: Who's my guy.
Speaker 15: I don't know the schedule for all the guys, but
Speaker 15: obviously I think that I know Show he's done it before,
Speaker 15: you know Sanchez at home? I think, you know, so,
Speaker 15: I haven't made that decision yet, but as we get closer,
Speaker 15: you know, things can change. But as we get closer,
Speaker 15: I'll put more thought into it.
Speaker 11: Yeah, that's the fun side of baseball.
Speaker 12: And you have a few players that maybe aren't number
Speaker 12: one as far as the popularity contest. But how much
Speaker 12: do you believe that Max month Se and Andy pa
Speaker 12: has have earned.
Speaker 11: To start at their respective positions.
Speaker 15: I think they've both earned it. And still we have
Speaker 15: a lot of baseball left for the first half. But
Speaker 15: as we kind of get kick off the fan voting
Speaker 15: for the All Star Game, I really hope that you know,
Speaker 15: Los Angeles Dodger fans and fans all over the country
Speaker 15: pitch in and support Max and Andy specifically because Andy
Speaker 15: lost out last year. Max has been I think a
Speaker 15: few years since he's been an All Star. But they're
Speaker 15: both having tremendous seasons, and you know, we draw more
Speaker 15: than anyone. We have the best fan base than anyone,
Speaker 15: so hopefully that be reflected in the voting for our guys.
Speaker 12: As far as the pitchers go, do you believe that
Speaker 12: it's out of the question or not the question that
Speaker 12: Justin Robleski could earn a spot.
Speaker 15: Well, I think that young Moto should certainly and will
Speaker 15: certainly be in the conversation. And I think Robo, you
Speaker 15: can't argue the numbers and the performance, so if he
Speaker 15: continues to do what he's doing, I hope that he
Speaker 15: certainly gets some consideration.
Speaker 12: It's always great catching up with you, and again another
Speaker 12: great week with you, and congratulations to you, your wife
Speaker 12: and your daughter for accomplishing something big graduating from Stanford.
Speaker 12: So congratulations to a great dad, a proud papa.
Speaker 15: Thanks Dave, I appreciate you, and let's win a ball
Speaker 15: game tonight.
Speaker 12: There is Dave Roberts has been our guest, and don't
Speaker 12: forget heading into summer without a medical emergency.

Speaker 5: Tim, all right, thanks a lot of DV Thank you
Speaker 5: to Dave Roberts.
Speaker 3: As we lead you up to first pitch from Pittsburgh
Speaker 3: Dodgers and the Pirates. Up next, we'll dive deeper in
Speaker 3: this pitching matchup. Don't you go anywhere. I'm Tim Katson
Speaker 3: is the back to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 7: This is Morongo Cassino Dodgers hunting on.
Speaker 1: Your home for La Dodgers.
Speaker 3: Faseball hits the Dodgers and the Pirates as they start
Speaker 3: a three game series from beautiful PMC Park along the
Speaker 3: three Rivers there in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 5: First pitch coming up at three forty.
Speaker 7: And now before the Dodgers hit the Dina, we look
Speaker 7: at the pitching matchups.
Speaker 3: Brought to you by your Toyota dealers. We make it easy, well,
Speaker 3: never easy. Facing Paul Schimes, the pride of Elatorial High School,
Speaker 3: the Air Force Academy LSU, the number one overall pick
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty three draft.
Speaker 5: The twenty four year old right hander is six and.
Speaker 3: Five with a three zho nine ERA in his third
Speaker 3: season now in the big League's got that overpowering fastball
Speaker 3: that averages ninety seven miles per hour, a devastating change up,
Speaker 3: a sweeper, a sinker, a splittery three all. Making his
Speaker 3: fourteenth start this season last time out four and two,
Speaker 3: third innings, three runs, six hits, seven strikeouts, and a
Speaker 3: no decision.
Speaker 5: Paul Skiings has been really good, but over his.
Speaker 3: Last four starts owen three with a four to ninety
Speaker 3: five r. Let's keep him down while he's not pitching well.
Speaker 3: He has three and one with a two seventy ERA
Speaker 3: with thirty three strikeouts. In four career starts against the Dodgers.
Speaker 3: He has pitched a combine twelve and a third scoreless
Speaker 3: innings over his last two starts against La Skiings is
Speaker 3: good to go in the first inning and good to
Speaker 3: get him.
Speaker 5: He's got a season high.
Speaker 3: Six thirty nine ERA with four home runs in the
Speaker 3: first inning. After that, though, the number drops as he
Speaker 3: gets into a rhythm. Eric Lower left hander veteran going
Speaker 3: for the Dodgers two and five overall this year at
Speaker 3: the five to seventy four ERA.
Speaker 5: Thirty one year old left hander has.
Speaker 3: Been in the Big league's part of eight season with
Speaker 3: the Padres, the Brewers, the Blue Jays, now the Dodgers. Fastball, cutter,
Speaker 3: change up, and a curveball. He was one five with
Speaker 3: a six sixty nine ERA in eight games with the
Speaker 3: Toronto Blue Jays this year. This is in comparison to
Speaker 3: last year, where he was really good during the regular season,
Speaker 3: going nine to two with a three to eighteen RA
Speaker 3: and a career best two point two WAR Well, this
Speaker 3: year has not been good for him, so bad that
Speaker 3: he was designated for assignment. The Dodgers acquired him in
Speaker 3: a trade. Now making his third start in a Dodger uniform,
Speaker 3: a one to zero record with a two to fifty
Speaker 3: three ERA, less timeout, four and two third innings, two runs,
Speaker 3: five hits, and no decision against the Diamondbacks in ten
Speaker 3: career games nine starts against the Pirates, Eric Lowers three
Speaker 3: and two with a two sixty one ER. So Eric Lower,
Speaker 3: the veteran left hander going for the Dodgers. Paul Schemes,
Speaker 3: the pride of Eltoral High School, going at for the Pirates,
Speaker 3: we are fifteen minutes away from first pitch. Keys to
Speaker 3: the game are coming up next. I'm Tim Katson's the
Speaker 3: back to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 7: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Tap.
Speaker 1: On your home for the Blue All Season Log.
Speaker 5: It's the Dodgers and the Pirates.
Speaker 3: Start up at a three game set part of a two
Speaker 3: city road trip for the Dodgers.
Speaker 5: Three against the Pirates.
Speaker 3: Then it's off to the South side of Chicago as
Speaker 3: they will have a weekend set against the Chicago White Sox.
Speaker 5: Eric Lower Paul Skens.
Speaker 3: The pitching matchup first pitch in PNC Park is coming
Speaker 3: up in about twelve minutes. As we get you ready
Speaker 3: for the start of the game with the Sapporo Start
Speaker 3: Great Moments. Start with Sapporo Beer, whatever your taste preference.
Speaker 3: Sapporo has you cover with the variety of crisp and
Speaker 3: refreshing Loggers Incleaning light and non alcoholic beers. Sapporo good
Speaker 3: with sushi, Great with baseball. One final time before first pitch,
Speaker 3: we head back out to the booth.
Speaker 5: Two guys on the call, Tim Never, Rick Monday.
Speaker 2: Tim, Thanks again, we're counting you down to the first
Speaker 2: pitch here in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on the banks of the
Speaker 2: Alleghany River as we look out over the Roberto Clemente
Speaker 2: Bridge with a lot of boat traffic on the Allegheny
Speaker 2: right underneath it. As the Dodgers get set to take
Speaker 2: on the Pirates here in game one of a three
Speaker 2: game set. Lefty Eric Lauer will be the seventeenth left
Speaker 2: handed starter against the Pirates this year. They don't see
Speaker 2: lefties all that often, but he's two and five. The
Speaker 2: last two starts he made for the Dodgers have been good.
Speaker 2: The Dodgers have won both of those games, and he
Speaker 2: comes off a two run performance over four and two
Speaker 2: thirds innings against Arizona last Tuesday.
Speaker 8: Yeah, he's been effective in throwing strengths and challenging and
Speaker 8: also he's had a lot of cold strike threes in
Speaker 8: a couple.
Speaker 6: Of starts he's had with the Dodgers. Flip side.
Speaker 8: Dodgers have to figure out Paul Skeens, and hopefully they
Speaker 8: can do it the way it's happened the last four
Speaker 8: starts where Skiens is a zero to three. He's allowed
Speaker 8: eleven earned runs in twenty innings of the last four starts.
Speaker 8: And opposing hitters believe it or not, or he hitting
Speaker 8: two to ninety one against him. Those are numbers you've
Speaker 8: never associated with Paul Skien so far in the early
Speaker 8: part of his career.
Speaker 2: Now in the early part of his career, he's got
Speaker 2: good numbers against the Dodgers. In his prior four starts.
Speaker 2: He only four starts against the Dodgers, He's three and
Speaker 2: one with an ERA of two seventy. So he's had success,
Speaker 2: including a twelve and a third innings pitched scoring streak
Speaker 2: last year against La So we'll see what happens with
Speaker 2: Paul Skeins. Does he get back on track or do
Speaker 2: the Dodgers send him to another loss. We'll have to
Speaker 2: find out. Dodgers have won eighteen of the last twenty
Speaker 2: four game one of a six game road trip to
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh and then to Chicago after that.
Speaker 3: Tim all right, Dodgers seven and a half games up
Speaker 3: of both the Diamondbacks and the Padres, both of those
Speaker 3: teams in action. Arizona is in Miami getting ready to
Speaker 3: start a game against the Marlins. Meanwhile, later on tonight
Speaker 3: down at Petco Park in San Diego, it'll be the
Speaker 3: Padres against Eli Deli Cruz and the Cincinnati Reds Dodgers
Speaker 3: pirates Paul Skeins takes the mountain decks.
Speaker 5: When we return, this has.
Speaker 3: Been Moroco Casino Dodgers on deck right here. You're back
Speaker 3: to back World Series Champion Dodgers Audio Network
