Yeah, 11 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:43,520 Speaker 1: that's where my life is right now. Tonight I took 12 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 1: two just to be careful the way this Dodger bullpen 13 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: has been pitching. And a good thing I did is 14 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: the Dodgers tonight almost gave it away in the ninth Inny, 15 00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,040 Speaker 1: but almost as good for darts and horseshoes because the 16 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: Dodgers win it four to three over the Phillies day 17 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 1: hang on for the win to take a two to 18 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: zero series lead. What a game, nine innings of thrilling baseball. 19 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: He had a great pitchers duel between Blake Snell and 20 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 1: Hayes SEUs Lozardo. Lozardo one point retired seventeen Dodgers in 21 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: a row after they gave up, almost gave up a 22 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: run in the first inning. He threw twenty four pitches, 23 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: but bounce back and shut down the Dodgers through the sixth. Meanwhile, 24 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 1: Blake Snell was fantastic for six shutout innings, just the 25 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: one hit, nine strikeouts through ninety nine pitches. He held on 26 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: long enough until the Dodgers offense was able to get 27 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: to hay sus Lozardo. In the seventh inning, Tascar Hernandez 28 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: starting it off with the single. He would score on 29 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: a fielder's choice to run single for Will Smith and 30 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: showey Otani the RBI single a four spot for the Dodgers, 31 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: and the seventh should have been enough. And you know 32 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: what happened the seventh and eighth Imachian He gives up 33 00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: one run. The ninth inning, Dave Roberts goes to Blake 34 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: and oh boy buckle up for Blake. Trying in the 35 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: ninth inning because it was almost disaster. A leadoff single, 36 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: a double, and then a two run double from Nick Costianos. 37 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: He was the tying run standing at second base. And 38 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: then what a great defensive play by the Dodgers infield, 39 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: started by Max Muntsey, finished off by Mookie Betts on 40 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: the wheel play on the bunt attempt by Stotts, they 41 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: get Costiano said third. I cannot underestimate or I cannot 42 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: tell you how big that play was to get Costiano 43 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: said third. Because the next batter, Harrison Vader singled to left, 44 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: that would have tied the game. You had the tying 45 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 1: run ninety feet away. Instead, you get the first out 46 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: of the inning. Fast forward, a couple at batters. Vessie 47 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: comes on relief, first and third. Still now the tye 48 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: run at third base and Roki Sasaki comes in to 49 00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: get the ground ball out of Trey Turner ends the game. Well, 50 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: if that weren't enough, how about the throw from Tommy 51 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: Edmond to get Trey Turner at first, a one hop 52 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: that Freddie Freeman saves. I mean, you talk about the dramatics. 53 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: It had it all tonight in this Dodgers win, and 54 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 1: it was an all around really good win for this 55 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: Dodgers team, a must win game that in my opinion, 56 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: now you have a huge advantage over Philadelphia going into 57 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 1: Game three on Wednesday night, flying across the country, coming 58 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,399 Speaker 1: back home, hanging on for that win. You held off 59 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: any momentum that they possibly could have brought with them 60 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: they left it in Philadelphia. They were starting to get 61 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: mo on their side. They were starting to feel themselves 62 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: standing up on the top step of the dugout, hanging 63 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: over the railing, banging the top of the railing. The 64 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: crowd was back into it. At the bank in Philadelphia. 65 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: You had runners on base, you had traffic, you had hits, 66 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: you had the time run ninety feet away. It was 67 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: getting very interesting. And if the Dodgers don't win this 68 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: game and it comes back tied to one to one, 69 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: the momentum is all Philadelphia. You have them confident, you 70 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: have them feeling good, and you have them having positive 71 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,799 Speaker 1: thoughts now coming back to Dodger Stadium for Game three instead, 72 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: you basically cut them off at the knees. By getting 73 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: this win, you chop down any momentum they had in 74 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: that ninth inning. By coming back with a two to 75 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: oh series lead. It was a huge win for the 76 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: Dodgers tonight. Cannot say it enough. A huge win for 77 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: the Dodgers to come back two to oh in this series. 78 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: Let's get out to the phones. We'll be here till 79 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,119 Speaker 1: the top of the hour. We'll hear from tai Oscar 80 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: Hernandez and we'll hear from Mookie Betts coming up throughout 81 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 1: Dodger talk. But what a night for the Dodgers. And 82 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: I know, just based on social media, and that's how 83 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: we gauge everything in life right now, social media, right 84 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 1: but based on the reaction on social media, I got 85 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,119 Speaker 1: a feeling, I know what everybody wants to talk about. 86 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: Logan Actually at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, Logan, how 87 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: was it experience it in person tonight as a Dodger fan? 88 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 4: It was electric, absolutely electric atmosphere, crazy volume them fans, 89 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 4: There's something else. 90 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 5: It's true. 91 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 6: Philly fans are just different. It was a battle for 92 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 6: me in the stands, and I can only imagine what 93 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 6: it's like up in the dish. Oh my lord, it 94 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 6: was insane. 95 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 1: What about the momentum of this game? Could you feel 96 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 1: it there in the ninth inning? Going back to Philadelphia 97 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: and the Philly is starting to feel pretty confident in 98 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: the fans back in this game. 99 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 6: I gotta tell you, I was sitting and this one 100 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 6: I liked about Dodgers fans in general. 101 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 5: You ride it out. 102 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 6: You don't start booing your players. You don't start, you know, 103 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 6: booing your closers when the game is still within reach. Baseball, 104 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 6: it's a funny game. But tonight Philadeli had kind of 105 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 6: turned on their team and going forward in this playoff, 106 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 6: the Dodgers, they're not going to win every game. Us 107 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 6: as fans, we gotta know this, and the Dodgers also 108 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 6: got to know his players. 109 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 7: They can't win it all. 110 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 6: So you just got to ride it out. You know, 111 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 6: it was tough trying it in there. It was tough 112 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 6: in the moment. I was really heated about it. Give 113 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 6: them back out there in LA in a friendly spot. 114 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 7: It's it's tough dial out here. 115 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 6: But as fans, I felt like I was remaining holding 116 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 6: strong with LA. 117 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 5: Billy gave up. 118 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 6: Billy gave up on their team. 119 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see if they show up for 120 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: Game three. You know they're not going to go down 121 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: without a fight. A lot of tough guys on that team, 122 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: a lot of pride on that team, and this is 123 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: the last goal round for this group in Philadelphia. Logan, 124 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 1: glad you made it out of there, Okay, as a 125 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: Dodger fan, and I know the Dodger nation is happy 126 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: to be up to own this series against Philadelphia. Thanks 127 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: a lot Logan, appreciate you checking in here on Dodger 128 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: Talk eight sixty six nine eight seven two five seventy 129 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 1: Solomon in long beat your next up here you're on 130 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: postgame dodg you talk. Oh sorry about that, Solomon? Go ahead, 131 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: how you doing any buddy? Good to hear voice. 132 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 8: I'm good, Thank you man. I appreciate it. You know, 133 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 8: a little too close for comfort tonight. Thank god they 134 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 8: won because, like you said, if they had not won 135 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 8: tonight and Philly comes back to La, all they need 136 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 8: is to split and then they're going home feeling good. 137 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 8: So you've just about put the dagger in them with 138 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 8: this one. But don't expect necessarily the doctors will wrap 139 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 8: it up Wednesday, because Phillip's got some fight in them 140 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 8: and they may have one win. They may have one 141 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 8: win left. But I did want to mention about Dave Roberts. 142 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 8: You know you went to Sasaki anyway, right, So don't 143 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 8: play with your food. You know, Blake trying to God 144 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 8: bless him. It's not the picture that he was last season. 145 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 8: He's just not so you can't put him in those 146 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 8: high loveing situations. As much as Dave wanted to, he 147 00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 8: said he trust them. Well, you know, we'll see going forward. 148 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 8: You know. That's all I got to say about that. 149 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 8: To me, it's just just just as the ninth inning 150 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 8: it gets to Sasaki and you know the game is good, 151 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 8: but just get me to the ninth inning, no doubt. 152 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: Salmon. Great to hear your voice. I hope you're doing well, 153 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: my friend. It was a decision that I know Dave 154 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: Roberts is going to get second guests on all night, 155 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: all day leading up to Game three and until the 156 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: Dodgers finished off this series. I understand the move because 157 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: Roki Sasaki is not pitched two times in three days. 158 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: But with that being said, you know the schedule, you 159 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: know what's ahead of you. You know what it takes 160 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: to win a best of five series. You know how 161 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: it all lays out. You know you're off days, you 162 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: know the days you're playing. You have to have known 163 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: that he'd either he's available or he's not. And the 164 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 1: fact that you did go to him in that crunch 165 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: time in the ninth inning means he was available and 166 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: maybe you wanted to stay away from him. Okay, all right, 167 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: we don't really want to go to him. It's a 168 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: four to one lead. We like trying it. I get it. 169 00:08:56,280 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: Play tryning was nails for you last October. Trying it 170 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: still one of the really good closers, back end bullpen 171 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: guys in baseball. He's had an up and down season. 172 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: He's had a rocky twenty twenty five. There is no 173 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: arguing that. But I see where Dave goes to him. 174 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: In the ninth inning, he had one of the I 175 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: think one or two of the three hits that he 176 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: gave up, flared out to the left, kind of an 177 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: office away, just making contact, punched it into left field 178 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: for a base hit. Good piece of hitting. I think 179 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: one of the three balls was actually hit hard against it. 180 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: But hey, nonetheless, he gave up hits and he gave 181 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: up at Harbi double, And with that being said, he 182 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: got himself into trouble and he had to get bailed 183 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: out by some great defense Alex Vesia and then rookie Sasaki. 184 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: But again, I understand where Dodger fans you're gonna come with. 185 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: If Sazaki wasn't available, then why did you go to 186 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: him in that emergence situation. Should have just gone to 187 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: him to start off the ninth inning. I get it now, 188 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 1: how many of you are with me because I know 189 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: Colin ee and social media. Matt were in here, Tim 190 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: Conway Junior from kfive, I was in here and we 191 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: were all talking about this and kind of, you know, 192 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: dissecting it. In the moment, you had runners on first 193 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: and third and you have Trey Turner coming up as 194 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: the lineup flipped over for Philadelphia. How many of you thought, Okay, great, 195 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 1: Rokie Susaki is coming in. But rookie Susaki has never 196 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: been in this situation. Rookie Sasaki has never been under 197 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: this much pressure in the major leagues. I don't want 198 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: to hear from you that are going after comments on 199 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: social media. Well you pushing in the world Baseball class. Okay, 200 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: it's different. This is a playoff game, sold out, crowded 201 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: Philadelphia RB, one of the toughest places to play, and 202 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 1: it's a ninth inning time run ninety feet away and 203 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: you have to come into this mess. You inherit this mess, 204 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: but you got to get out of it. And he 205 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 1: did to his credit. But how many in the back 206 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: of your mind were thinking, we've never seen him do 207 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 1: it before. We kind of in the back of our 208 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,839 Speaker 1: mind know the Rokie Susaki at the beginning of part 209 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: of the season that you know was emotional out there. 210 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: I mean it's it came into my mind, it came 211 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: into several of ours mind talking about, Okay, how's he 212 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: getting ahead of the pressure. All right, if you're gonna 213 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: give the ball, and you guys are all wanting Sasaki. Here, 214 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 1: here's Sasaki. Two outs, first and third, get it out, 215 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: and he did. He was great at sawing off Trey Turner, 216 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 1: who hit a three hopper at a second base to 217 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: Tommy Edmond. Under pressure. He showed poise, he showed control, 218 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: and he was able to do it in two pitches 219 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: and get the Dodgers a win. Huge, huge performance from 220 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: Roki Sasaki. In my mind, not any more questions. I 221 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: have no problem putting him in in any situation, home 222 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: or road. He just checked all the boxes and in 223 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: my mind, in my mind, he is good to go. 224 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: I have no problems of putting him into a situation. 225 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: Whether he inherits a mess or he goes in for 226 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: a clean inning, he goes in a blowout, or goes 227 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: in a one run game, doesn't matter to me. I've 228 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: seen enough out of rookie Sasaki. He's it. He's the guy. 229 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: He's the guy. Now. Can you use him every single game? No, 230 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,959 Speaker 1: but it'll be interesting to see how he's deployed now 231 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: moving forward, and certainly at the day off on Tuesday, 232 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: he should be good to go since he only threw 233 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: two pitches, should be good to go for Wednesday. And 234 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,320 Speaker 1: think about who the Dodgers then will have on Wednesday. 235 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: Yoshinobu Yamamoto good to go, and pretty much Clayton Kershaw 236 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,559 Speaker 1: and who else is down there? You use she in 237 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: So you've got Jack Dryer, You've got Anthony Banda that 238 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: you can go do down the bullpen. You know, if 239 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: it's a game once the Dodgers are up with Dave 240 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: roberts have the you know what to go to Tyler 241 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: Glass now to try to close it out. 242 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:53,319 Speaker 8: I don't know. 243 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: I mean, you want to keep your starter for the 244 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:56,839 Speaker 1: next day in your back pocket. But if it's a 245 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: close out, oh about this close out situation? Show Hey 246 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: o Tani, I know Dave Robertson in his pregame today, 247 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: they're not using show he out of the bullpen. He's 248 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: a game five starter. But what if? What if? Let's 249 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: play the what if game? What if the Dodgers are leading, 250 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: and then Dodgers need just a couple outs late in 251 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 1: the game, close it out, finish off the series, put 252 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: the final nail in the coffin on the series in 253 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 1: the season for Philadelphia, why not? There won't be a 254 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: game five anyways, Finish it off in three. I'm just 255 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: playing the what if game. We all love to play it. 256 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: What if We'll find out? On Wednesday with Yoshinoba Yamamoto 257 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: on the Mound, George in La is next up on 258 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: Dodger Talk. Dodgers a two zero series lead after a 259 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 1: four to three win over the Phillies. What's going on, George? 260 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,079 Speaker 5: Well, just like you said that, you know this is 261 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:47,959 Speaker 5: a huge win, but it could have been a huge 262 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 5: blunder very easily. I mean roberts Man, I mean god, 263 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 5: sometimes I feel he's like he's part of the opposition. 264 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 5: I mean, to overthink this thing. We know what Blake 265 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 5: Trenton has been like this year. Okay, And I don't 266 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 5: understand when you have Sasaki and why would you even 267 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 5: do this. There should be a rule that if you're 268 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 5: gonna bring in trying and it can't be in a 269 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 5: clean any there's got to be at least one out, 270 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 5: because the psychological edge between a clean enning and just 271 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 5: meeting two outs with someone who's struggling, like trying to 272 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 5: even Vesia. Sometimes, like, I don't understand why they would 273 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 5: make it this close. There was no reason for it. 274 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 5: I mean, Susaki it was clear to me already. I mean, 275 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 5: he's our really only option where you make do with 276 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 5: what you have, and the guy's like been nails for us, 277 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 5: at least for us small sample size. Yes, but my god, 278 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 5: look what Trinin's been doing. So I'm glad we want 279 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 5: but you know, like, let's stop coddling these guys with 280 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 5: Susaki's in great shape. You haven't played the whole year 281 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 5: he's lasted. He's twenty three years old. He's in better 282 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 5: shape than anyone listening to this show right now. So 283 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 5: I don't understand. I hope we've learned our lessons, But 284 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 5: with just Roberts, sometimes, my god, I feel like like 285 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 5: we were back to square one sometimes. So I just 286 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 5: hope he learned from this and just really plays it 287 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 5: like it should be played. It's don't overthink it, he says. 288 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 5: That's what the playoffs sometimes can make a manager do. 289 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 5: That's my only comment, right. 290 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: George, I appreciate the phone call Eather in Utah checking 291 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: in on Dodger Talk after a Dodgers four to three 292 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: win over the Phillies and a two to oher series lead. 293 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: Now in this NLD is how you do it?

It helped Freddy skips that up, Like 302 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 9: who is Freddy? Like he's insane? We need to retire 303 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 9: his jersey.

It was a 307 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 9: great he win. And I hope, I hope Mickey Roond's 308 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 9: okay diving at third.

How you doing Colin, Hey, I'm 337 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:39,360 Speaker 1: doing great. 338 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 10: Thanks for taking my call. 339 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 8: Guys. 340 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 10: Obviously quite obviously the biggest win of the season for 341 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 10: the Dodgers. As you spoke about the momentum, they can't 342 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 10: they can't lose that game being up like that. And 343 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 10: Dave Roberts is an excellent manager. He's got a World 344 00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 10: Series ring, well two if you count twenty twenty. He 345 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 10: uh just plays the fire. He really plays the fire 346 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,880 Speaker 10: at the end in the bullpen. Roki showed us enough 347 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 10: in the first game when he closed it out. Period. 348 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 10: He's the closer. 349 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 8: He's the closer. 350 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 10: And I can't say enough about the defense. As Heather said, 351 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,679 Speaker 10: we hope Miggy's okay. But that dive into third the 352 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 10: wheel play Freddie's pick. That's why those guys get paid 353 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,120 Speaker 10: big bucks. It's not just the bat, and they haven't 354 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 10: had to necessarily flash the glove as much, but they 355 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 10: did tonight, and you know, it was just fantastic pitching 356 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 10: Lizardo and Snow. I mean, that's that's about as efficient 357 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 10: as you'll ever see two starters pitch, and really two 358 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 10: of the best teams. It's not the best teams in baseball, so. 359 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: Tonight and the offense taken over late in the game 360 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: call and I appreciate the phone call. It was certainly 361 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: great postseason back and forth baseball between these two teams 362 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: who are both really good teams, and two teams that, 363 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 1: over the course of one hundred and sixty two games, 364 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: won a lot of games, won their division. And we 365 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 1: knew this was going to be a battle in the NLTS. 366 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,159 Speaker 1: That's why so many baseball people wanted to see this 367 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: series in a best of seven series in the NLCS, 368 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: because these are just two good teams. But you know 369 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: what if the best of five and the Dodgers had 370 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 1: to go into Philadelphia for the first two and they 371 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: get great pitching performances from Blake Snell and show Hey 372 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: Otani and the bullpen. Well, they walk that tightrope oh 373 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: so high tonight, and as it is, Rookie Sasaki brings 374 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 1: them home with a two out ground ball out to 375 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 1: get Trey Turner to grind out to second and end 376 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: the game in the Dodgers hang on, hang on for 377 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: a four to three win. Let's head back out to Philadelphia. 378 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,959 Speaker 1: Mookie Betts, who was a part of that great wheel 379 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 1: play in the ninth inning to tag out Costianos at 380 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,239 Speaker 1: third on the attempted bun attempt from Bryson Stott. Here 381 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: from Mooki after the win. 382 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 2: Mukie, obviously the play in the ninth inning was huge 383 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 2: to get Castianos out. Max months he said during the 384 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 2: pitching change, it was your idea, your insistence to go 385 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:14,719 Speaker 2: to the wheel play. Where did that come from? And 386 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 2: where were those instincts to know that was the play. 387 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 11: It's just another learned behavior. I got to give that 388 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 11: credit to Mickey Rojas. 389 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: We I think we did it. 390 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 11: We did it earlier in the year in Anahei, and 391 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 11: I remember asking him, like, you know, when's a good 392 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 11: time to do it, he said, in a door die situation. 393 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 11: And he's really been him and what have really helped 394 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,159 Speaker 11: me a lot just learning situations, and I hadn't been 395 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 11: in that situation in a game like this, so I 396 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 11: just trusted it and made a decision and they worked. 397 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 2: Does that just showed the growth that you've had at 398 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 2: that position because it is a take charge kind of 399 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 2: captain position For you to feel that comfortable to insist 400 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 2: on it, I mean that kind of shows where you're at. 401 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, I guess, you know, I don't know 402 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 11: if it was very comfortable, but somebody's got to do it. 403 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: And I figured that if. 404 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 11: There was ever a good time to make a decision 405 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 11: and roll with it, that was the time. 406 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 10: I'm I'm a wheel play. 407 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 12: The short stop typically isn't as close to second as 408 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 12: your positioned. 409 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 1: It looked like you just dead sprinted toward third base. 410 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 11: Uh increased the degree of difficulty there. I don't know, 411 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 11: just God blessed me with some athleticism so I was 412 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 11: able to, Uh, you just kind of put it on 413 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 11: display there. 414 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 7: You're talking the other day about like you just don't 415 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 7: have to think through things that shorts off as much 416 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 7: shoting or was that one of those examples where like 417 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 7: it instinctually kind of kicked out. 418 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 8: Feel like this is the right. 419 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:38,679 Speaker 3: Thing to do. 420 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 11: Yeah, Like I said, MIGGI told me, and all you 421 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 11: had to do was tell me once and I just 422 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 11: remembered and that was to me, that was like a 423 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 11: do a dye situation. Now, I thank for them. Tying 424 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 11: the game up turns off the momentum there, so for 425 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 11: the final way to stop it, we can't. That would 426 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 11: be great, And like I said, I just made a 427 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 11: decision and roll with it. 428 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 8: Rookie. 429 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 2: You guys took their best shot. It was somewhat of 430 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 2: a desperation game for them. They're down oh two, Now, 431 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 2: how good do you feel about where you're at going 432 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 2: back home? 433 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 11: Feel all right? But you know them boys are They're hungry. 434 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 11: They're hungry, and they're gonna come. They're gonna come ready 435 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 11: to go back in La. So we can't let our 436 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,719 Speaker 11: guard down at all because if so, they'll run right 437 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 11: through it. And uh, we'll be coming back here for 438 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 11: game five. So but make sure we stay ready and 439 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:22,919 Speaker 11: stay hungry. 440 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 5: I bet Davids when William and not just like let 441 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 5: you sort of call that play, but also like pushing forward, 442 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 5: that's what say that that the trust that he kind 443 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 5: of has to be that spot. 444 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 11: Yeah, he trust trustes guys. Man, he trustes guys. We've 445 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 11: been together for I don't even know how many years, 446 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 11: but so we we have an idea of what each 447 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,679 Speaker 11: other can do. We are we do a pretty good 448 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 11: job of putting each other in the good spots to 449 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 11: be successful. And that was one of those times where 450 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,360 Speaker 11: Doc kind of just called on us and said, you guys, 451 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 11: figure it out, and in a in a very positive way, 452 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 11: like he trusts us. 453 00:22:55,680 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: And we did leave it to the Dodgers leadership to 454 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,639 Speaker 1: get it done there. In the ninth Inny Mookie Betts, 455 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: Max Munsei and a great defensive play on the wheel 456 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,120 Speaker 1: play on the Bunn attempt from Bryson Stotts to get 457 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: Castianos in third. It was a huge momentum shift for 458 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: the Dodgers to get back in front of this game 459 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,400 Speaker 1: against the Philadelphia Phillies, get that time run away from 460 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: third base for at least a few at bats, and 461 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: then finally with runners on first and third and two outs, 462 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: they go to Roki Sasaki. Is there any question out 463 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: that Sasaki is the guy? Is there any question that 464 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: the rest of this postseason in a closeout game situation, 465 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: it's got to be Roki Sasaki, and somebody's got to 466 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: translate to him. Somebody's got to tell Dave Roberts, somebody's 467 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: got to let everybody know the schedule is what it 468 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 1: is and buckle up, because if he's got to pitch 469 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 1: two days in two games in three days, or pitch 470 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:53,919 Speaker 1: and close out games and back to back nights with 471 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,199 Speaker 1: a day off after that, then so be it. But 472 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: there's got to be that plan in place, and there's 473 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,199 Speaker 1: got to be that accepted in place from Roki Susaki 474 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 1: that that is the plan moving forward. There's no more 475 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: testing it out, there's no more let's see if he 476 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: can do this two games in three days. The training 477 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:15,360 Speaker 1: wheels are off and he is now full go. As 478 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 1: far as the Dodger closer, at least for the rest 479 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: of this postseason. He is missed right now for the Dodgers' 480 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 1: bullpen and to close out games eight six, six, nine, 481 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: eight seven, two, five to seventy.

They execute the play to perfection. 502 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 3: Rick Mundane Salute Gutsy played by Max Munsey. 503 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 1: Wanta play by the Dodgers infield. The wheel play done 504 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: to perfection. You practice it, You do it growing up 505 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: in baseball when you're practice fielding bunts and wanna play 506 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 1: work to perfection. Mookie Bett's putting the tag on Costianos 507 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: at third, getting him out of scoring position, and the 508 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: Dodgers come back with four runs in the seventh they 509 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: take the lead, and they go on to win a 510 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: four to three and they hang on for the victory 511 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 1: after the Dodgers' bullpen again a little dice in the 512 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: ninth inning, Blake trying in first three batters he faced, 513 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: all reached, he comes out, Alex Vesi comes in. The 514 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 1: first batter he faced, was that fielder's choice on the 515 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 1: wheel play base hit another fielder's choice, runners on first 516 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: and third, and Roki Sasaki finally comes in and gets 517 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 1: the final out of the game, not before Freddie Freeman, though, 518 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: had to make a great pick at first base. And 519 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: I'll keep saying it until as long as I'm here. 520 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: Freddie Freeman deserves a Gold Glove. Get him another gold glove. 521 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: He won one in Atlanta. The fact that he has 522 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 1: been at Dodger now since twenty twenty two and he 523 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: still has not won a Gold Glove. For all the 524 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 1: plays he makes at first base, all the throws he 525 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:55,120 Speaker 1: saves from Dodger and infielders, and tonight a big one, 526 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: a backhanded pick stretched out like a goaltender in hockey, 527 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,919 Speaker 1: the throw from Tommy Edmond for the final out of 528 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,479 Speaker 1: the game, and the Dodgers ken Helm now with a 529 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 1: two to zero series lead in this best of five 530 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 1: and LCS Leo and Pasadena your next up on Dodger 531 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: Talk on a five seventy. How you doing Leo? 532 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 8: I'm doing really good. How are you? 533 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:18,679 Speaker 1: I'm doing good. I'm starting to lose my voice with 534 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 1: all this talking and yelling and screaming, but certainly it 535 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: makes it all feel good with the Dodger win. 536 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,880 Speaker 12: I was trying to work because I was watching the game. 537 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: That was painful. 538 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 12: But I have to say I don't want to be 539 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 12: I don't want the Dodgers Stiles to be like the 540 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 12: Kibi Bans. I don't really think there's a reason to 541 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 12: trast rowerds for this game. I think that he needed 542 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 12: to try our other relievers because as rochesters, I agree 543 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 12: with you is for sure closer moving forward. We have 544 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 12: a lot of games ahead of us, hopefully, so we 545 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 12: need to have other alternatives in this game. If you 546 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 12: look at the matchups, it look perfect for trying and 547 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,239 Speaker 12: it didn't work. And one of the main things that 548 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 12: showed that Roberts have changed his own completely in the 549 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 12: past few years. Keep pulling at the right time. Brought Denis, Yeah, 550 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 12: leave him in only for the pitches that made sense, 551 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 12: and then brought Sasaki. 552 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 8: The way he managed the. 553 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 1: Last inning was masterful. 554 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 8: It's easy to. 555 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 12: Just go with, oh, Turner is not that good whatever. Yeah, 556 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 12: he hasn't been great, but the matchup made sense, and 557 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,919 Speaker 12: we as we said, we need to let the players 558 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 12: play for them to improve. I think the new Roberts, yeah, 559 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 12: pull them on time anyway. 560 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: And with jo on the fact that I didn't have 561 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,679 Speaker 1: a problem with him going to Blake Trining in the 562 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: ninth inning, because you're gonna have to go to him 563 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: at some point. You're gonna have to use him throughout 564 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: the rest of this postseason. You're just gonna have to. 565 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: And with that being said, he's been there, done that. 566 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 1: He's gotten you out of big situations, he saved games, 567 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: he's been a high leverage reliever for you, and you 568 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: have trust in him. Now this three battered minimum, keep 569 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: in mind, that's why he had to be out there 570 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: for three batters, and all three batters reached base, including 571 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 1: the Nick Castianos to run double. If he's out there 572 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: and there's no three batter men them, I'm telling you 573 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 1: he's not getting to batter three because he's out of 574 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: there before that. But he has to face three batters, 575 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 1: and then at the soonest point, he could Dave Roberts 576 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: goes out there and brings in Alex Vessius. Certainly, with 577 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: the left handers coming up after that, it made sense 578 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: as well to bring a left handed reliever in. But 579 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with it. But if your 580 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: issue was we don't know if Sasaki can pitch two 581 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: games in three days, well clearly you thought he could 582 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: because you brought him in with two outs in a 583 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 1: high leverage situation with the tye run ninety feet away. 584 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: Why not just go to him to start the ninth 585 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: if that's the situation. I mean, I understand going to 586 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: trin it. I would have understand Sasaki as well, but 587 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: the whole we didn't know if he can go two 588 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: games in three days. Well what changed, certainly was the 589 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 1: sense of urgency in that ninth Inny, with some guys 590 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: getting on base and traffic on the bass pass the 591 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 1: tying run it on base, and all of a sudden 592 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: and the sense of urgency and panic kind of set in. 593 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: And that's my word panic. They're not panicking, but the 594 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 1: sense of urgency is through the roof. So you yogas 595 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: you go to Sasaki. So he can't pitch two games 596 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 1: in three days, and he only needed two pitches to 597 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: get Trey Turner and get the win for you, And 598 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 1: now you're heading home with a two O series lead. 599 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 1: Daniel's Jewelers presents the home run for cast. Go to 600 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: Anti seventy la sports dot com keyword home run for 601 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: your chance to win a fifty dollars Daniel Jeweler's gift 602 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: card just for predicting the number of home runs to 603 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: the next game. Daniels Jewelers own the Dream Doris and 604 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: Lahabra THEYKT for to be Impatient. You're on Dodger Talk. 605 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: How you doing, Doris? 606 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 11: I'm good? 607 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 13: How are you? 608 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: I'm doing good now. The Dodgers got that win tonight 609 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 1: and have a two O series lead. I'm feeling really 610 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: good about them coming back home. 611 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 14: I know, I was on my way home and I 612 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 14: you know, I was like, oh four, there are four 613 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:50,719 Speaker 14: and nothing and I was say, they had a good 614 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 14: lead going and then I heard Who's coming in and 615 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 14: everything just kind of think a little bit. But you know, 616 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 14: the nerves definitely came back from when you know, the 617 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 14: dog were in Baltimore and he came in, and you know, 618 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 14: we had that heartbreak of a game, and that's all 619 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 14: I could think about when this happened. But you know, 620 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 14: he does have a good record trendon with being good 621 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 14: in the past. But I just don't think a playoff 622 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 14: game should be a confidence, you know, seeking opportunity to 623 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 14: see if he's going to maybe achieve what they want 624 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 14: him to, you know, and so I really think that 625 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 14: they could have cost us a game tonight. 626 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I appreciate the phone call. I don't think it 627 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: was to see if he's okay and can get out 628 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: of whatever he's been in, because he's been good the 629 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 1: last few times out. In fact, the last three outings 630 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: for Blake Trin and he has not given up a run. 631 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: You go back to that Saturday game against the Seattle Mariners, 632 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: comes in, pitches an any, strikes out, three, gives up 633 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: a hit. He pitched the two games against the Cincinnati 634 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: Reds a total of an inning in a third, no runs, 635 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: just one hit in those two outings, struck out two, 636 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 1: pitched well. Even go back before the Seattle outing. In 637 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: what it says, four the last five times he's been 638 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: out on the mountain he has not given up a run. 639 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 1: So he has done well the last week plus of 640 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 1: the season, including the two games against the Cincinnati Reds. 641 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: So you're not experimenting, you're not trying to see if 642 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 1: he's back to the form that Blake Tryon had a 643 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 1: year ago. You've got confidence in him. In fact, you're 644 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: not putting somebody in a postseason game right now if 645 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 1: you don't have confidence in him. If there's any wavering 646 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 1: possibilities that this guy may or may not get an out, 647 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: then he shouldn't be on the roster. Then he shouldn't 648 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: certainly not be going into a game. And they have 649 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 1: all the confidence in Blake trying And again I just 650 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 1: rattled off the numbers, no runs and two appearances against 651 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: the Reds. Four out of the last five outings. He's 652 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 1: only give up one run in all those innings of work. 653 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: So you got to feel good about the way he 654 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: was going into the night's game. Certainly, the outcome and 655 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: the results weren't there for Blake trying, but the guys 656 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: behind him picked him up, and boy did the defense 657 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 1: pick him up. And then Roki Sasaki coming in to 658 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: get the final outs. Able in LA. Thanks for being 659 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 1: Paci to your next up on Dodger Talk, Hi doing able? 660 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 8: How you doing? 661 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 7: Long time listener and longtime Dodger fans. What a game did? 662 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 7: But you know what, let's keep away from what Dave 663 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 7: did at the end. What about himy? I mean, he 664 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 7: did great. He those two innings that he pitched. I mean, 665 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 7: those are big endings for him because we had just 666 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 7: scored the four runs. I know he gave up a run, 667 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 7: but you know he pitched a great two innings coming 668 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 7: off of Blake's now start, and you got to give 669 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 7: him credit to I mean, or we're bashing here at 670 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 7: Blake tried it. But you know what Blake did for 671 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 7: us last year. Look what he did for us in 672 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 7: the World Series. Do not forget that, guys, everybody's forget 673 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 7: And I know it's a different year, it's a different Blake. 674 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 7: He's been to a lot this year. Blake tried and 675 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 7: through some nasty stuff last year in the World Series 676 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 7: for us and we can't forget about him. And that's 677 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 7: all I'd like to say. Thank you for getting my call, Tim, 678 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 7: and go Dodgers. 679 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: All right, Abel, I appreciate thanks for checking in, Ken 680 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: and Newport Beach. Ken, Welcome to Dodger Talk. How you 681 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: doing on this Monday night. Certainly feel a lot better 682 00:33:56,040 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: after escaping that ninth inning, right, I have no. 683 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 15: Idea, you know, Tim, you said the exact thing. 684 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 8: I was thinking. 685 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 15: They lost that game because they put trying it in 686 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 15: for one thing, you know, two and seven record with 687 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 15: a five forty era this year. I don't think I 688 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 15: could have accepted that. But the momentum would have changed team. 689 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 15: Look at fans were booing their team. If they won 690 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 15: that game, they would have had all the momentum coming back. 691 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,280 Speaker 15: And now that yeah, we've got our best pictures pitching next. 692 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 15: But still you said it. I agree, that was momentum 693 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 15: and it was the best win I've seen in a 694 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 15: long time. And by the way, Freddie Freeman grand Slam 695 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 15: home run last year to win everything. That catch, which 696 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 15: was really tough, was right there with that Grand Slam. 697 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 15: Amazing and phenomenal, and thank you Freddie Freeman. 698 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: No doubt he was fantastic tonight defensively, and he has 699 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,280 Speaker 1: been all season long, and he has been the last 700 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 1: three years in dodge of uniform. And I'm just watching 701 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: the replay of the wheel play in the ninth inning 702 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:07,439 Speaker 1: with nobody out and Costianos at second, Bryson Stotts lays 703 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 1: down a bunt and you run a wheel play. But 704 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 1: you're taught as a hitter that if you see the 705 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 1: third baseman crashing and you see the shortstop running the third, 706 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: you are to slash or you're to pull the bunt 707 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 1: back and hit. You're not supposed to go through with 708 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: the bunt. But it was a late release for Max 709 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: Mounsey and an even later release from Mookie Betts from 710 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,359 Speaker 1: going to the shortstop position to cover third. And the 711 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 1: speed as you heard Max or Rookie Bets say that 712 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 1: God given speed that he was given to get over 713 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 1: to third base before Costianos to get there, turn his 714 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 1: body straddle third base, and the throw from Max Mounsey 715 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: had to be perfect, high, throw, a pick, a throw 716 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: behind Mookie Bets, a throw out in front of him 717 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 1: that he's got a stretch and go out and get 718 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 1: Costianos slides in safe at third but a perfectly thrown 719 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 1: gets it, spins throws right to the glove that's going 720 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 1: down towards the bag to tag Costianos, who sliding in 721 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:14,759 Speaker 1: a bang bang play worked to perfection for the Dodgers 722 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: and Max Munsey and Mookie Betts. Great fielding, great throw, 723 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 1: great job staying in there like a quarterback about to 724 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,840 Speaker 1: take a hit. He stayed in there while Costianos slid 725 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 1: it and took him out at third, held onto the 726 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 1: ball for the out. It was a huge play and 727 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 1: it stopped, my opinion, it stopped the momentum and it 728 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: allowed the Dodgers to catch their breath and regroup with 729 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 1: Alex Vessi on the mound. It did. It stopped that 730 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 1: train of momentum that the Phillies were building and building, 731 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 1: and you felt like, oh no, there's no way the 732 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 1: Dodgers can stop it. And that play at third on 733 00:36:55,920 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: the bunch to get Costianos out was huge. Blake, my guy, 734 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:05,280 Speaker 1: Blake and Colorado's late night for you, buddy, but certainly 735 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 1: worth the wait. As the Dodgers come back home with 736 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:08,879 Speaker 1: a two oh series lead. 737 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 16: My man, yeah, I'm really glad that dodgis won today. 738 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 16: I mean I'm see him was amazing, but Blake trying in. 739 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:22,320 Speaker 16: We have to stop putting him in these situations. We 740 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 16: got to stop putting them. We have to have Welcome 741 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 16: to SHAKEI Pismo and great place by everyone today, and 742 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,840 Speaker 16: I'm really glad that Dodges has have then today. 743 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm excited for the Dodgers. That was a huge 744 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: win on the road in a two oh series. Lead Blake, 745 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,359 Speaker 1: We'll check back with you a couple of days, all right. 746 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:47,439 Speaker 8: Buddy, we're not going to be back. 747 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:51,240 Speaker 1: I don't know.
