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't they.
Speaker 3: Printing money, The Dodgers continue, it's not fair.
Speaker 1: Are making plans.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a singular focus on controlling what they can control.
Speaker 3: Now your pregame host of the world champion La Dodgers,
Speaker 3: Tamle Cats.
Speaker 6: Hi, everybody, and good afternoon.
Speaker 4: Welcome to Bo Wrongo Casino.
Speaker 6: Dodgers on deck on this Tuesday, June twenty third, as
Speaker 6: your back to back world serious champions are on the
Speaker 6: road in rainy Minneapolis as they take on the Twins.
Speaker 6: Dodgers fifty and twenty nine on this season, the first
Speaker 6: team in baseball to the fifty win mark, first place
Speaker 6: atop of the NL West, they are running away with
Speaker 6: the division. After a serious opening over the Twins yesterday,
Speaker 6: the Dodgers look to do it again with Justin Robleski
Speaker 6: on the mound. First pitch and target field in Minneapolis
Speaker 6: is scheduled for four forty pm Pacific, but most likely
Speaker 6: we will start in a rain delay as the tarp
Speaker 6: is on the field and the rain is coming down.
Speaker 4: But we got you covered.
Speaker 6: No pun intended between now and then Here on Morongo Casino,
Speaker 6: Dodgers on deck, you're gonna hear from the manager, Dave Roberts,
Speaker 6: get his pregame thoughts before this game eventually gets under away,
Speaker 6: we'll dive deeper into what this pitching matchup is gonna
Speaker 6: look like. David Vassa joins us throughout the hour and
Speaker 6: coming up in forty five minutes.
Speaker 4: Not gonna miss it.
Speaker 6: David Vassie is gonna go one on one with Kyle Tucker.
Speaker 6: Certainly has not had the start of the season he
Speaker 6: had hoped since signing as a free agent. But we're
Speaker 6: gonna hear from the Dodger right fielder not in the
Speaker 6: lineup today, still bothered by the sore back. But you're
Speaker 6: gonna hear from Kyle Tucker one on one with David
Speaker 6: Vassi coming up again in forty five minutes.
Speaker 4: We got your Dodgers magical moment.
Speaker 6: Shortly, we'll visit with Kirsten Watson from Sports and at
Speaker 6: LA and just a few minutes we head out to
Speaker 6: the Galloping Ford broadcast booth with Tim Neverett and Rick Monday. Well,
Speaker 6: yesterday the Dodgers went with the opener and Will kleinb
Speaker 6: trying to get the right handers out. He struck out
Speaker 6: the first battery faced, but then the second batter old
Speaker 6: Byron Buxton, got the best of them.
Speaker 2: So even though they're productive, not as productive as they
Speaker 2: could have been. He's got forty runs batted him and
Speaker 2: a two to one he swings and hammers one deep
Speaker 2: left center field back toward the Wallpie has gone.
Speaker 1: Tie game.
Speaker 2: Buxton's twenty fifth home run of the season.
Speaker 1: It is one to one.
Speaker 4: Byron Buckston went the solo home run again.
Speaker 6: This came after show Hey Otani led off the game
Speaker 6: in the top of the first with a solo blast,
Speaker 6: his seventeenth of the year. The one nothing Dodgers lead
Speaker 6: gone just like that to Byron Buxton, and we were
Speaker 6: tied at one. Will Klein would go just the one inning.
Speaker 6: In came Eric Lauer as the bulk inning pitcher, a
Speaker 6: guy who probably should have got the start. He went
Speaker 6: six shutout innings. In fact, he didn't give up a
Speaker 6: hit over the six innings, walk three, but struck out two,
Speaker 6: threw eighty four pitches and cruised over his six innings
Speaker 6: of work. Meanwhile, the Dodgers offense struggled against Zebbie Matthews.
Speaker 6: After the leadoff home run for show Hey o'tani, the game,
Speaker 6: remind remained tied at one all the way until the
Speaker 6: top half of the sixth inning, when the Dodgers unbroke
Speaker 6: the tie with the leadoff batter Freddy Freeman.
Speaker 2: I gotta have the feelings something's got to give here
Speaker 2: pretty soon for the Dodger offense.
Speaker 7: Yep, I have the feeling is gonna be a loud
Speaker 7: sound sometime soon.
Speaker 2: Freeman swings hits a high drive center field. Buxton looking
Speaker 2: up and this ball is gone A oh run right on,
Speaker 2: cue Freddy Freeman.
Speaker 7: I rest my case.
Speaker 2: Freeman gives the Dodgers a two to one lead, and
Speaker 2: Freddie with his three one hundred and eightieth career home run.
Speaker 6: Freddie Freeman goes deep. How did they know that was
Speaker 6: gonna happen?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 6: That untied the game, Dodgers with a two to one lead.
Speaker 6: Mention Eric Lawer, he went really well over six innings.
Speaker 6: In fact, the Twins win hitless between Royce Lewis's two
Speaker 6: out single the first and then an Austin Martin leadoff
Speaker 6: single in the eighth inning.
Speaker 4: That was it. Eric Lower struck out two along the way.
Speaker 6: Lower would exit after six innings of where Kyle Hurt
Speaker 6: got the eighth inning. Tanner Scott came in, pitched the
Speaker 6: ninth inning and put up a zero.
Speaker 4: Dodgers hang on for a two to one win.
Speaker 6: Eric Lower, good for him, gets the win, his third
Speaker 6: of the season, second as a member of the Dodgers.
Speaker 6: Tanner Scott picks up his tenth save of the season.
Speaker 6: Dodgers with the win, first team to fifty wins now
Speaker 6: fifty to twenty nine, best record in baseball, first place
Speaker 6: atop the NL West, and today, barring the rain, Dodgers
Speaker 6: look to do it again with Justin Robleski on the mound.
Speaker 6: First pitch schedule for four forty, but we're most likely
Speaker 6: going to be in a rain delay. Let's head out
Speaker 6: though to the gallop before broadcast booth as we say
Speaker 6: hello to Tidon Everdeen Rick Monday.
Speaker 2: Guys, Tim, thanks very much. It's the opposite weather today
Speaker 2: that we had for last night's game here in Minneapolis.
Speaker 2: Last night beautiful tonight not so beautiful and very wet.
Speaker 2: It's been raining since this afternoon, clouds and fog all
Speaker 2: downtown really obscuring the view of some of the buildings
Speaker 2: that are just beyond Target Field here as we get
Speaker 2: set for Game two of this three game series between
Speaker 2: the Dodgers and the Minnesota Twins. Dodgers winning two to
Speaker 2: one last night. Three home runs accounted for all the scoring.
Speaker 2: Byron Buxton had a first inning home run for the Twins,
Speaker 2: but Otani a leadoff home run, the thirtieth of his
Speaker 2: career career home run number two ninety seven, and Freddie
Speaker 2: Freeman hit his thirteenth of the year in his three
Speaker 2: hundred and eightieth of his career. Tonight, Kenry Rojas will
Speaker 2: start the game for the Twins. He is a left
Speaker 2: Handry not expected to go very far in the game,
Speaker 2: maybe a few winnings. Joe Ryan was supposed to start,
Speaker 2: but he came down ill, so he is out and
Speaker 2: Kendrey Rojas will get the start. He's one to zero
Speaker 2: the one two six era. Justin Robluski has been very,
Speaker 2: very good for the Dodgers this year, really a bright
Speaker 2: surprise at eight and two in a two seven to
Speaker 2: two era. Per Roblusky. He will face a Twins lineup
Speaker 2: of pretty much all right handers. There are three switch
Speaker 2: hitters in there, but one through nine they bat right
Speaker 2: handed against them.
Speaker 7: The Dodgers have to get the offense going a little
Speaker 7: bit better than what they were able to do actually,
Speaker 7: not only last night, but of recent games. On top
Speaker 7: of it, another one run decision, this one a two
Speaker 7: to one, But the Dodgers they had plenty of pitching,
Speaker 7: allowed his three hints, but from an offensive standpoint, zero
Speaker 7: for seven with runners in scoring position. Thanks for a
Speaker 7: couple of big home runs you were alluding to, but
Speaker 7: did they need to get that going a little bit more?
Speaker 7: And they're going to be playing underhanded a little bit
Speaker 7: more tonight because Kyle Tucker is not going to be
Speaker 7: available in any stretching to imagination lower back spasms a
Speaker 7: tightness that he experienced last night, and also with Dalton
Speaker 7: Rushing had to leave last night's ball game, ironic did
Speaker 7: in the first inning, Rushing took a foul ball off
Speaker 7: the mask and eventually had to leave the ballgame. So
Speaker 7: he's still under concussion protocol and probably not available the
Speaker 7: entire game tonight.
Speaker 2: Well, they did not taxi a catcher from the minor leagues,
Speaker 2: so the emergency catcher, I'm told will be Alex Call,
Speaker 2: and if not Alex call, it'll be Max Munson. So
Speaker 2: let's hope we don't get to the emergency catcher portion
Speaker 2: of the game.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and especially since Al's call is going to start
Speaker 7: in right field tonight and Max Buonci of course, will
Speaker 7: be at third base on top of it, so we're
Speaker 7: going to be able to see what happens. One thing
Speaker 7: that happens also in the catching corps. This is kind
Speaker 7: of interesting too. The Dodger catching corps in the month
Speaker 7: of June has a mask a total of just eleven hits,
Speaker 7: so they have been a few and far between as
Speaker 7: far as opportunities to get on base.
Speaker 2: And for chuck You Robinson, he has not had a
Speaker 2: hit in the big leagues since September of twenty twenty four.
Speaker 2: That's OH for twenty one in the big league since then,
Speaker 2: he's OH for his last eleven with the Dodgers. So
Speaker 2: it's about time Chuckie Robinson can get a hit and
Speaker 2: contribute offensively. Dodgers' first team in Major League Baseball to
Speaker 2: fifty wins fifty to twenty nine. The last time they
Speaker 2: were first to fifty was twenty twenty two. That year
Speaker 2: they also started fifty and twenty nine. They finished one
Speaker 2: to eleven and fifty one. Game two tonight, will tell
Speaker 2: you when it gets started. Just before it gets started,
Speaker 2: rain's still coming down here in Minneapolis. Dodgers and Twins
Speaker 2: coming up, Tim.
Speaker 4: All right, thank you very much.
Speaker 6: Hope to have an update on first pitch. The weather
Speaker 6: coming up in either about ten or fifteen minutes. As
Speaker 6: we cut you down, though, Dodger fans get a game
Speaker 6: day meal on nothing better than some Shaky's pizza.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can order right.
Speaker 6: Now shakys dot com. You can get that Shaky's pizza,
Speaker 6: that chicken, the mojos. I'm thinking we may do that.
Speaker 4: There's a little rain delay here in the studio.
Speaker 6: How about that Colin he's gonna pay coming up here.
Speaker 6: I'm Morago Casino, Dodgers on deck. You're gonna hear from
Speaker 6: the manager, Dave Roberts. We will check you in, of
Speaker 6: course with David VESSI don't forget. He's gonna go one
Speaker 6: on one with Kyle Tucker. That's coming up in about
Speaker 6: thirty five minutes. We got your Otani rewind though next
Speaker 6: and we'll check you in with Kirsten Watson in rainy Minneapolis.
Speaker 4: So he leads up to Dodgers and Twins on this Tuesday.
Speaker 4: Thanks for being with us. I'm Tim kays is the
Speaker 4: back to back World Series champion Dodgers. Oh you that one.
Speaker 1: This is Lorongo Casino.
Speaker 3: Dodgers Hunting game on your home for La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: He's the Dodgers and the Twins from rainy Minneapolis. Justin
Speaker 6: Robluski and Kinji Rojas will be the pitching matchup Game
Speaker 6: two of the three game sets.
Speaker 1: This is the Otani rewinde.
Speaker 2: First pitch came it six forty one Central time, seventy
Speaker 2: six degree the game time. Temp Otani swings Hammers want
Speaker 2: Deep Rey Field gone, leadoff home run number thirty in
Speaker 2: the career of show Hey O'tani his sixth this year.
Speaker 2: Instant offense and the Dodgers lead at one nothing.
Speaker 7: I'm not sure the balls even come down yet.
Speaker 1: What a blast.
Speaker 4: What a blast?
Speaker 6: Indeed, Show Hey Otani didn't tank long to get that
Speaker 6: home run out of the ballpark. The second pitch of
Speaker 6: the game, he took Deep into the plaza and right
Speaker 6: field at an eighty seven mile an hour change up
Speaker 6: in the middle of the zone from zeb Matthews and
Speaker 6: O'tani hit it out at one hundred and twelve miles
Speaker 6: per hour, clearing the right field seats at Target Field.
Speaker 6: Otani certainly likes playing there. He has four home runs
Speaker 6: and ten ribies in thirteen career games played at that ballpark.
Speaker 6: He was his sixth leadoff home run this season and
Speaker 6: his seventh in seventeen games in the month of June.
Speaker 1: It is Kirston's Corner with Kirston Watson.
Speaker 6: Hey, Kirsten now joins us from Minneapolis.
Speaker 4: Before the game brought to you by.
Speaker 6: Cars for Kids donat now Carsfrokids dot org. That's Cars
Speaker 6: with the k All right, Kirsten, what is the latest
Speaker 6: with the weather.
Speaker 8: Oh, Tim, it is rain, rain, and some more rain.
Speaker 8: But you know what, the hope is that they want
Speaker 8: to get this game in tonight. So what does that
Speaker 8: mean to be determined? It is seem likely that they
Speaker 8: could be starting in a delay. Nothing official at this moment,
Speaker 8: but yeah, there's a lot of rain in the forecast.
Speaker 8: It's really not supposed to open up until maybe like nine,
Speaker 8: nine thirty, and even at that point it may just
Speaker 8: be a lighter rain. It's come in spurts. We've had heavy,
Speaker 8: we've had drizzled, but it's been very steady, and we're
Speaker 8: talking to just some of the guys it's more of
Speaker 8: it's some type of rain that proves to be more
Speaker 8: of an annoyance than anything. So the hope is that
Speaker 8: they can get this game started though, and just have
Speaker 8: to battle through it tonight.
Speaker 6: What's the latest on the injuries, Kirston, Because yesterday we
Speaker 6: saw two Dodgers go out of the game.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and they came out of the game early.
Speaker 8: So first let's start with Kyle Tucker. So when we
Speaker 8: spoke to him after the game last night, he was
Speaker 8: sharing that early in the game he felt basically his
Speaker 8: lower back kind of tightened up and then that led
Speaker 8: to a spasm. It was something he felt in the
Speaker 8: at bad and he wasn't really in both of his
Speaker 8: at bats, i should say, and he wasn't really sure
Speaker 8: kind of what the result was going to be. But
Speaker 8: once he got on base, pay the walk and then
Speaker 8: ran over a second with Tommy Edmund getting his hit,
Speaker 8: that's when he really felt it. And so Dave Roberts
Speaker 8: was aware that his back had been bothering him, so
Speaker 8: that was why he immediately took him out of the game.
Speaker 8: He had shared that he has experienced this backspasm in
Speaker 8: the past before last time, he said it felt like
Speaker 8: it was a little bit worse than this one that
Speaker 8: he's currently experiencing. Dave Roberts did confirm that he's unavailable today,
Speaker 8: likely just going to be unavailable the rest of this
Speaker 8: series and then they'll hopefully get him back out there
Speaker 8: on Friday in San Diego, but they just kind of
Speaker 8: want to give him a moment to reset, allow that
Speaker 8: back to feel better, but they are going to truly
Speaker 8: stay away from him, especially.
Speaker 1: Tonight and likely tomorrow.
Speaker 4: Then you've got Dalton Rushing.
Speaker 8: So Dalton Rushing to the foul tip off of his mask,
Speaker 8: went into concussion protocols and testing, so he's not in
Speaker 8: the lineup either today and they are gonna undergo one
Speaker 8: more round of testing with him, so that'll be at
Speaker 8: six pm local. Dalton came in today feeling that he's
Speaker 8: saying that he does feel a lot better and that
Speaker 8: he could be out there in the lineup, But Dave said,
Speaker 8: you know, especially when you have these young players, one like.
Speaker 4: Dalton Rushing, where he will go out there even if.
Speaker 8: It's probably against what the training stuff was saying. They
Speaker 8: were saying they're gonna wait to hear what the trainers
Speaker 8: have to say confirm that he's in the clear, but
Speaker 8: they don't expect he to be on a concussion all
Speaker 8: or anything either. And the hope is that not only
Speaker 8: could he be available off the bench tonight, but be
Speaker 8: back in the lineup tomorrow. So guys are feeling better,
Speaker 8: which is a good thing. We're grateful to be saying
Speaker 8: that no one is going on the il at this moment.
Speaker 8: But it definitely was a bit scary yesterday, or not
Speaker 8: even scary, but just concerning when you have two key
Speaker 8: guys coming out of the game.
Speaker 4: So early, no doubt about it. You hear the rain
Speaker 4: in the background.
Speaker 6: Stage Ry Kirsten, and hopefully this game gets in eventually.
Speaker 4: We'll check in with you after it's all done. Still
Speaker 4: to come here.
Speaker 6: I'm Marongo Casino Dodgers on deck, will dive deeper of
Speaker 6: this injury report, and we'll hear from the manager, Dave Roberts.
Speaker 6: It's the Dodgers and Twins from rainy Minneapolis. I'm Tim Kass,
Speaker 6: the back to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck on your home
Speaker 1: for the blue all season long.
Speaker 6: Brogo Casino Dodgers on Deck continues on this Tuesday afternoon,
Speaker 6: beautiful here in Southern California, raining in Minneapolis, as we
Speaker 6: lead you up to Dodgers and Twins Maronggo Casino Resort
Speaker 6: and spy a Grand Slam for good times. Justin Robleski
Speaker 6: and Kendri Rojas the scheduled pitching matchup from Minnesota. This
Speaker 6: game will not start on time, so we'll see what
Speaker 6: time first pitch eventually is. As the Dodgers get ready
Speaker 6: for their to get to fifty one wins on the season.
Speaker 6: First team to fifty wins this year is the Dodgers
Speaker 6: cruising in the NL West.
Speaker 1: He's the LA Dodgers Injury Report.
Speaker 6: Presented by UCLA Healthy official medical partner the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Speaker 4: Here's an update.
Speaker 6: Will Smith on the IL with the next inflammation, ta
Speaker 6: Oskar Hernandez on the IL with the left hamstring strain.
Speaker 4: No Dalton rushing in the game.
Speaker 6: Still still okay from last night leaving the game with
Speaker 6: concussion like symptoms but checked out no concussion after the game,
Speaker 6: but just for precautionary reasons, not in the lineup today, so.
Speaker 4: That is certainly good news.
Speaker 6: Also, no Kyle Tucker still bothered by the backspasses, but
Speaker 6: you're gonna hear from Kyle Tucker coming up. In less
Speaker 6: than twenty minutes. We got Tyler Glassdow on the IL,
Speaker 6: Blake Snell on the IL. Edwin Diaz is starting the
Speaker 6: throwing program. That is good news. Looks like Evan Phillips,
Speaker 6: out of all the Dodger relievers, is the closest to
Speaker 6: returning sometime next month. Let's head back out to rainy
Speaker 6: Minneapolis and check out with the Dodger Skipper.
Speaker 7: Anything else with.
Speaker 1: Questions for Dave, Dave, can you just describe Dave?
Speaker 3: Can you talk about the pressure in the dugouts with
Speaker 3: Dave Robberts.
Speaker 9: Well, we have a call in about forty minutes with
Speaker 9: Major League Baseball the Twins, and then hopefully we'll know
Speaker 9: a little bit more. You know, as it stands now,
Speaker 9: you know, guys would cancel bat and practice. Guys are
Speaker 9: getting cranked up indoors. But like I said, we'll know
Speaker 9: more about forty minutes, but hopefully there's not too much
Speaker 9: of a delay.
Speaker 8: You've got Justin Robleski starting today. When you think about
Speaker 8: just a player who has to pitch through whether it's rain,
Speaker 8: other things like that, I mean, how has he prepared
Speaker 8: himself for these moments that can pose different challenges.
Speaker 9: Justin's good in the sense that I don't think that,
Speaker 9: you know, circumstances conditions affect him. He's a very focused ballplayer,
Speaker 9: and so you know, once we have some clarity on
Speaker 9: what we're going to do, he'll be ready to go.
Speaker 9: And I don't think that you know, any type of
Speaker 9: weather conditions are going to affect him tonight today it's
Speaker 9: at six o'clock. But from what I hear, he said
Speaker 9: he's good to go. So that doesn't carry too much
Speaker 9: weight until I hear from the medical staff, but it
Speaker 9: is good to know that he said he's good to go.
Speaker 9: My hope is that he'll be available off the bench,
Speaker 9: you know, in some capacity. Tucker unavailable, so feeling better,
Speaker 9: but yeah, unavailable tonight.
Speaker 1: With the ils.
Speaker 7: That's sort of how you're feeling as well.
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, I think most likely will probably stay away
Speaker 9: from him this series and then you know, with hopes
Speaker 9: of getting him back in line up on Friday.
Speaker 1: I mean that given the way things about him that,
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, if you're already going to miss
Speaker 1: a few days anyway, that he's kind of give him
Speaker 1: the ten days is kind of I don't know.
Speaker 9: If being compressed, he said, you know, you know, I haven't.
Speaker 9: I don't think we've thought about that, but I do
Speaker 9: think that, you know, the four days might be with
Speaker 9: the off day would be a middle to that. And
Speaker 9: so hopefully that he has taken advantage of, you know
Speaker 9: this obviously to get right, but also kind of a
Speaker 9: mental reset. Hopefully the four days will suffice.
Speaker 6: All right, there's the manager, Dave Roberts talking about no
Speaker 6: Kyle Tucker available tonight, by Dalton Russian is available if
Speaker 6: needed off the bench. So that is certainly good news
Speaker 6: for the Dodger catcher, as the Dodgers already without Will
Speaker 6: Smith on the injured list.
Speaker 4: So we continue here on Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 6: We will check in with David Vase get the latest
Speaker 6: from rainy Minneapolis.
Speaker 4: Also, how about.
Speaker 6: Them Dodger all stars who could be going to Philadelphia
Speaker 6: for the Midsummer Classic.
Speaker 4: He's got the latest. As we lead you up to.
Speaker 6: Dodgers and Twins, I'm Tim Kason is the back to
Speaker 6: back World Series champion.
Speaker 4: Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: As we were saying, yes, is Marongo Casino. Dodgers on
Speaker 3: Jack On, the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: It's a Dodgers and the Minnesota Twins from rainy Minneapolis.
Speaker 4: The game expected to start in a rain delay.
Speaker 6: Dodgers Baseball brought to you by Alpato, born in La
Speaker 6: and made for your game day. Alpato brings authentic Mexican
Speaker 6: style tomato sauces, salsas and hot sauces right to your plate.
Speaker 4: Helpato Gourmet and a can.
Speaker 1: Joining Tim Cats on Dodgers on Tech.
Speaker 5: I accept everybody for who they are.
Speaker 1: This is Dodger Insider David Basse.
Speaker 6: All right, DV, what is the latest from Rainy target Field.
Speaker 5: Well, you just said we are expected to start the
Speaker 5: game in a delay. I got news for you, Tim.
Speaker 5: We are starting this game in a delay. That's official.
Speaker 5: We just don't know when this game will start. Effort
Speaker 5: everything from ten o'clock Central time to eight o'clock Central time.
Speaker 5: But the rain is still coming down pretty heavy right now.
Speaker 5: The tarp is on the field, the ground screw is
Speaker 5: trying to manage the tarf so when they do take
Speaker 5: the tarp off, it's not flooded with water. And one
Speaker 5: thing about target field, they may not have put a
Speaker 5: retractable roof on it, but they do have a pretty
Speaker 5: good drainage system on the warning track. And they just
Speaker 5: let the fans in the stadium about twenty minutes ago,
Speaker 5: So they have every intent on playing this game, even
Speaker 5: if it means starting it at ten o'clock Central time.
Speaker 6: That is a late start time for a game ten
Speaker 6: o'clock at night. All right, David's brought to you by
Speaker 6: Ford here for those.
Speaker 7: Eight o'clock your time.
Speaker 4: I'm sticking to you, David.
Speaker 6: You know your sleep habits brought to you by Ford,
Speaker 6: of course, and you're Southern California.
Speaker 4: Ford Dealers. Visit by Ford now dot com.
Speaker 6: They got a ployee pricing for everyone who walks in
Speaker 6: the door as we speak.
Speaker 4: All right, Dodgers all Star voting.
Speaker 6: David, what's the lightest as we get ready for the
Speaker 6: Midsummer Classic? What are we look at as far as
Speaker 6: guys going to Philadelphia?
Speaker 5: Well, I think like the biggest surprised him is that
Speaker 5: Freddy is leading all first basemen in the National League,
Speaker 5: and he's ahead of current Atlanta Bray first baseman Matt Olson,
Speaker 5: who you could argue is an MVP candidate this year.
Speaker 5: Freddy's ops is eight thirty eight. He hit his five
Speaker 5: hundred or three hundred and eightieth career home run last night.
Speaker 5: He's having a very fine season. But yeah, he's among
Speaker 5: the Dodgers that are leading the votes in the National League.
Speaker 5: Max Munsey, who hands down should be the starter at
Speaker 5: third base and the fans are getting that right. Andy
Speaker 5: Pat has same thing. He is leading all National League outfielders.
Speaker 5: Shoe hay O Tommi is leading all vote getters in
Speaker 5: both leagues with two point one million votes.
Speaker 1: The one also.
Speaker 5: Surprises that Will Smith is second, so he'll be going
Speaker 5: on to Phase two likely. So the Dodgers have a
Speaker 5: strong contingent of position players that are getting a lot
Speaker 5: of votes, and you would have to venture to say
Speaker 5: they're getting a lot of international votes these days.
Speaker 6: So doubt about that, David. What's the light with the twins?
Speaker 6: Joe Ryan, the All Star argue their best pitcher. Are
Speaker 6: the Dodgers going to see him in the next couple
Speaker 6: of days?
Speaker 5: Here we'll get this, tim Joe Ryan was supposed to
Speaker 5: start tonight and then obviously with the rain and everything
Speaker 5: that has come with it, all of a sudden, Joe
Speaker 5: Ryan was scratched for an illness. His illness was so
Speaker 5: bad tim that he was throwing in the bullpen when
Speaker 5: the rain was coming down. And tomorrow Joe Ryan and
Speaker 5: shoe Hey Otani will square off, and not coincidentally, about
Speaker 5: an hour ago, the Twins' Twitter account put out that
Speaker 5: marquee matchup Otani versus Joe Ryan with a link to
Speaker 5: buy tickets to Tomorrow's game. And the expectation is that
Speaker 5: they are going to have the largest crowd of the
Speaker 5: season at Target Field tomorrow night. Thirty five thousand plus
Speaker 5: are expected now, and my understanding talking to some of
Speaker 5: the Twins media members, they are going to open the
Speaker 5: gates thirty minutes earlier before tomorrow night's game. So Joe
Speaker 5: Ryan push back a day. With the rain, Otani and
Speaker 5: an illness, that's.
Speaker 4: Probably why they don't want to do a doubleheader tomorrow.
Speaker 6: Also, David, but yeah, great pitching matchup on paper with
Speaker 6: Joe Ryan and show Heltani.
Speaker 4: David, great stuff. Looking forward to your conversation with Kyle Tucker.

Speaker 3: It's time for the Hawfey Magical Moment Ditch Magical presented
Speaker 3: by Hawkeey hotails Ah.
Speaker 6: We go back to April thirtieth, two thousand and fourteen, Yes,
Speaker 6: sixteen years ago. The Dodgers in Minneapoli has taken on
Speaker 6: the Twins, a record day for the franchise.
Speaker 7: And here's Colobelo, the one one ground ball to short stop.
Speaker 7: Uh boy, that is Handler Ramirez. He will throw over
Speaker 7: the first base and that will close it out and
Speaker 7: the Dodgers become one of just four franchises in Major
Speaker 7: League Baseball history to reach ten thousand victories in their
Speaker 7: storied history.
Speaker 6: Yes, the Dodgers beat the Twins fourteen years ago, not
Speaker 6: sixteen years ago, twelve years ago, but I'm not wasn't
Speaker 6: a math major right? Twelve years ago twenty fourteen, Dodgers
Speaker 6: beat the Twins six to four for their ten thousand
Speaker 6: career franchise win. Congratulations to the Dodgers way back in
Speaker 6: twenty fourteen. This Hofey magical moment brought to you by
Speaker 6: a Hoffey hot Dogs, Haffey so Cow's local treasure for
Speaker 6: nearly one hundred years.
Speaker 4: Hoffey hot Dogs local and so great. That's one guy
Speaker 4: calling you here as my math major, helping me out.
Speaker 6: When we continue here on Wrongo Casino, Dodgers on deck,
Speaker 6: we'll hear from Kyle Tucker. But also next Rick Monday,
Speaker 6: it's the Dodgers and Twins. We're starting in the Raindola, folks.
Speaker 6: I'm Tim Kateson's the back to back World Series champion
Speaker 6: Dodgers audio Network.
Speaker 3: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 1: On your home for the Blue all season long.
Speaker 6: It's the Dodgers and the Twins. This game will start
Speaker 6: in a rain. Dela pitching match was pretty good one.
Speaker 6: Justin Robleski, Kendree Rojas, it's time now for the Rizon startup. Now, Verizon,
Speaker 6: you can lock in that low price for three years
Speaker 6: so you can save big. Visit your so Cow Verizon
Speaker 6: store today.
Speaker 3: And now joined by David Bassey, Here's La Dodgers broadcast
Speaker 3: and World Series Champion Dodger Rick Monday.
Speaker 2: Rick.
Speaker 5: Once this rain ends, a lot of people are talking
Speaker 5: about the All Star Game for Justin Robleski. And if
Speaker 5: we get this game underway at whatever time and Robleski
Speaker 5: pitches the way he's pitched all year, I'm not sure
Speaker 5: how you leave him out of that conversation.
Speaker 7: I'm glad that you brought that up because for those
Speaker 7: that have not been keeping abreast of what's going on,
Speaker 7: Justin Robleski has made twelve stars plus one relief appearance.
Speaker 7: His record is eight and two, his er is under
Speaker 7: two and three quarters. Why would he not be in
Speaker 7: the thoughts and in the mix?
Speaker 5: Dave Roberts actually drew the parallel of a few years
Speaker 5: ago when Tony Gonsolin had his best year in baseball
Speaker 5: at the end of the year one eighteen games and
Speaker 5: just was one of those seasons, And it feels like
Speaker 5: that's what the All Star Game is.
Speaker 7: Some other numbers that we will talk about when Tim
Speaker 7: and I are doing the pregame show, I'm certain and
Speaker 7: it will enter into the ballgame as well. First of all,
Speaker 7: the banning average against it just two fifteen runners in
Speaker 7: scoring position, which to me tells a whole lot about
Speaker 7: when the game's on the line really important. Just a
Speaker 7: one ninety six banning average, so below the Mendoza lines.
Speaker 7: We referred to it as the Bob Yucker line because
Speaker 7: Bob Yucker's career batting average is a two hundred, ranted
Speaker 7: by Bob and Bill Walking number of years ago. Because
Speaker 7: I would be honored if you use my name as
Speaker 7: the Bob Bucker line. So that in itself, I mean,
Speaker 7: very good, very good point did you bring up here
Speaker 7: in particular home, I started to look at some numbers today.
Speaker 7: Ribleski's four and one both at home and on the road.
Speaker 7: But at home he's only allowed a one to fifty
Speaker 7: one banning average against. I mean, he basically has owned
Speaker 7: the home turf.
Speaker 2: Rick.
Speaker 5: Last night, the Dodgers and Twins combined to score three runs.
Speaker 5: They were all hit by home runs. Does it feel
Speaker 5: like at this point of the season that teams have
Speaker 5: built their identity, and the Dodgers' identity is if they
Speaker 5: hit home runs, they usually win well.
Speaker 7: That and if you make a mistake against the Dodgers'
Speaker 7: ball club, they will win a high percentage of the games.
Speaker 7: That's why you just cannot afford to make a mistake,
Speaker 7: a mistake against good teams, whether it be the Dodgers
Speaker 7: or anybody else. I look at the standings around Major
Speaker 7: League Baseball, I'm still kind of puzzled as to why
Speaker 7: there are only X number of teams that are even
Speaker 7: about five hundred. You know, is it parody?
Speaker 1: Is it what?
Speaker 7: Is it?
Speaker 1: Is it bad years?
Speaker 7: Don't really know, but it is nice to see a
Speaker 7: couple of different teams are you know, kind of up there?
Speaker 7: For example, who would have thought on the twenty third
Speaker 7: of June. Coming into today's action in the America League
Speaker 7: Central Division, the Chicago White Sox will be tied for
Speaker 7: first place in the division.
Speaker 4: Yeah, nobody thought that would happen.
Speaker 5: But I will say this, it's been four or five
Speaker 5: years where they've had the first pick in the draft,
Speaker 5: so at some point you got to get some good
Speaker 5: players in the system.
Speaker 7: You think, yeah, it would be nice to be able
Speaker 7: to do that. There's no question the Dodgers start with
Speaker 7: a nine game lead over the San Diego Padres and
Speaker 7: the Nashley Western Division that a couple of different things
Speaker 7: have to take place. First of all, we're not going
Speaker 7: to see Kyle Tucker availability tonight. You heard that from
Speaker 7: Dave Roberts downstairs. But you're also going to be talking
Speaker 7: to mister Tucker a little bit later on on the pregame.
Speaker 5: Show, and I gave him some advice. I said, Hey,
Speaker 5: Friday in San Diego is a great day to start
Speaker 5: playing again.
Speaker 7: Okay, takes a good time. Okay, So now you're his
Speaker 7: playing managers, and.
Speaker 5: I'm his life coach, I'm his manager, back therapist, all
Speaker 5: of these things.
Speaker 7: Rick, Well, tomorrow is a showed Hey, Otan, he's going
Speaker 7: to be pitching correct. Yes, well, let me bring back
Speaker 7: another pitcher that turned into a hitter, and boy what
Speaker 7: a hitter he did. Because on his date We'll go
Speaker 7: back to nineteen seventeen with the Boston Red Sox. At
Speaker 7: the time, olboy Dabe Ruth walked the leadoff man, Ray
Speaker 7: Morgan was his name. On four pitches, he argued with
Speaker 7: the homeplate umpire named Brick Owens, and he was ejected
Speaker 7: one batter into the ball game. Babe Ruce ejected, so
Speaker 7: what happened? Well, I'm the name of Ernie Shores came
Speaker 7: into the contest. He retired twenty six consecutive batters, and
Speaker 7: then Morgan was thrown out trying to steal second on
Speaker 7: the really re first delivery. So you know, as it
Speaker 7: turns out baseball's first combined no hitter with Babe Ruce
Speaker 7: the starting pitcher thrown out of the game after facing
Speaker 7: one batter, and he walked and argued on the call.
Speaker 5: I wonder if the Babe went to the local tavern.
Speaker 5: Did he ever see the end of the game.
Speaker 7: He probably started to think. He probably did not wait
Speaker 7: till the ninth in he was over before going out there.
Speaker 7: He was a robust in his celebration of life.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's another difference between him and Otani Clean
Speaker 5: living for show. Hey, While Babe chose other ways to
Speaker 5: get ready for games.
Speaker 7: I'm about Otani last night, I mean he launched one.
Speaker 7: I saw the replay today and there were some people
Speaker 7: sitting in the front row behind home plate that I
Speaker 7: was amazed. What happened was as soon as the ball
Speaker 7: left the bat, you saw the heads of the people
Speaker 7: the fans in this turned to their right as they're
Speaker 7: behind home and watching it, and then one, two, three,
Speaker 7: four almost gone cue their jaws dropped. Well, we experienced
Speaker 7: that a lot when we see him come to home play.
Speaker 5: You say this all the time, Rick, do not take
Speaker 5: your eyes.
Speaker 7: Take your eyes off of him, because you're liable to
Speaker 7: see something that is very very special.
Speaker 5: Whenever this game gets started, be in your seats and
Speaker 5: be ready.
Speaker 7: It's like tuning on the radio when David Vase is
Speaker 7: going to be present, because you never know. You don't
Speaker 7: want to miss it.
Speaker 5: Hey, Tim, that's a great endorsement. All back out of
Speaker 5: here before things change. We'll send it back to you
Speaker 5: in the studio.
Speaker 6: Yeah, good time to back out the DV Dodgers Baseballtiperson
Speaker 6: of our Uniclow Field at Dodger Stadium. Visit Uniclow dot com,
Speaker 6: slash us. While this game will start in a rain,
Speaker 6: delay as the Dodgers and Twins both await the weather
Speaker 6: to blow through. When it does, we'll find out together.
Speaker 6: So we lead you up to Dodgers and Twins from Minneapolis.
Speaker 6: I'm Tim Kates is the back to back World Series
Speaker 6: champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino Dodgers an
Speaker 3: jack on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: Dodgers and Twins. Jess Robleski Kendre Rojas. The pitching matchup
Speaker 6: first pitch from target Field was scheduled for four forty Pacific,
Speaker 6: but the rain is causing that to be delayed. But
Speaker 6: first pitch now officially scheduled for five oh five Pacific
Speaker 6: seven oh five Central time in Minneapolis.
Speaker 4: So that is good news, not too long of a
Speaker 4: rain to delay about twenty five minutes.
Speaker 6: Dodgers Baseball brought to you by Shakey's Pizza Parlor, the
Speaker 6: official pizza partner of the Dodgers Audio broadcast. Win It's
Speaker 6: game day, It's group day at shakeys dot com.
Speaker 3: And now what will likely be Vess fielding insults from
Speaker 3: a Dodger player.
Speaker 4: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 1: This is high and tugged.
Speaker 5: Well, I finally cornered Kyle Tucker. He's got nowhere to
Speaker 5: go because he's on a mischine right now. That's given
Speaker 5: his back some sort of therapy. Kyle, thanks a lot
Speaker 5: for the time.
Speaker 8: I appreciate it.
Speaker 10: Yep, thanks for cordering me.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know right, you're buckled in. They you can't
Speaker 5: go anywhere. You're stuck talking to me.
Speaker 10: Oh perfect, right where I want to be.
Speaker 5: So what's this machine doing for your back? Right now?
Speaker 10: It's just like a PMF machine. It just kind of
Speaker 10: just pulses. So there's like a couple of different like
Speaker 10: attachments that you can do to it, and a couple
Speaker 10: guy like a couple of guys mostly pictures kind of
Speaker 10: use it. But it's just kind of like the electromagnetic
Speaker 10: waves and pulses through you. So I just came came here,
Speaker 10: sat down for a little bit to use it, and.
Speaker 5: Then I saw you, and then I saw Tommy Edmund
Speaker 5: doing this yesterday.
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's not bad. I mean you just kind of
Speaker 10: sit down, hang out and let it, let it do
Speaker 10: his thing.
Speaker 5: How's the bag feeling today? You're not in the starting lineup.
Speaker 5: Good day to choose not to be in the starting
Speaker 5: lineup with this rain. But how's the bag feeling.
Speaker 10: It feels better. Kind of locked up yesterday and was
Speaker 10: kind of tight and sore. Today it's better, uh so,
Speaker 10: kind of sore and bothers to kind of rotate a
Speaker 10: little bit, but it's better than yesterday. So that's that's
Speaker 10: good improvement.
Speaker 2: Kyle.
Speaker 5: Okay, A lot of people have asked you a lot
Speaker 5: of different questions that I'm not sure I would ask
Speaker 5: as far as your hitting goes. But I do have
Speaker 5: specific questions to ask you that nobody's asked. Number One,
Speaker 5: you're swinging at the first pitch more than you ever
Speaker 5: have in your career. Why do you think that is?
Speaker 10: I was I think at the beginning of the season.
Speaker 10: I mean, it kind of just depends. I mean, if
Speaker 10: sometimes that's the best pitch you're going to get in
Speaker 10: that bat, I mean, if they're throwing it in the
Speaker 10: middle ish part of the zone, like I might as
Speaker 10: well swing at that, then take that and then have
Speaker 10: to swing at pitches on the corner. So I just
Speaker 10: gotta probably do a little bit petter job at not
Speaker 10: missing those ones.
Speaker 5: I guess. Dave Roberts said yesterday, you're a guy that
Speaker 5: would run counts deep, you know, be very selective. Do
Speaker 5: you feel like if you get back to doing that
Speaker 5: and maybe going back to who Kyle Tucker was swinging
Speaker 5: at the first pitch thirty four percent of the time,
Speaker 5: that could help you moving forward.
Speaker 10: I mean it just depends. I mean, if you get
Speaker 10: first pitched fastball in the middle, I mean that, like
Speaker 10: I said, that could be the best pitch that you're
Speaker 10: gonna see that at bat, So you just take your
Speaker 10: chances of that, and you know, if they throw something
Speaker 10: out of the zone, then you can work deeper into accounts.
Speaker 10: So it kind of just depends on the ad bat
Speaker 10: and how it goes. I mean, if you have four
Speaker 10: bats and the first pitch is all you know, fastball
Speaker 10: or something right down the middle, and you see four pitches,
Speaker 10: like I mean, you at least swung at the ones
Speaker 10: you wanted to swing at. It just kind of as
Speaker 10: a matter of fact of putting the barrel to the
Speaker 10: ball a little bit better and making things happen.
Speaker 5: Do you feel like pitchers are pitching you differently this
Speaker 5: year because it feels like those first pitches are a
Speaker 5: lot more spin than they were fastballs in years past.
Speaker 10: I think it just depends. I mean, I'm sure teams
Speaker 10: look at how other teams fitch me and see whatever
Speaker 10: success that someone's had or what worked, so kind kind
Speaker 10: of just depends on the pitcher or the catcher and
Speaker 10: like the team and their game plan and stuff. So
Speaker 10: I remember, regardless, I can got to hit it either way.
Speaker 5: All right, here's a right, Hey, Miguel Rojas endorsing this
Speaker 5: interview right now in the rain delay with Kyle Tucker. Okay,
Speaker 5: so here's another one everybody trying to diagnose. Be Kyle
Speaker 5: Tucker's number one hitting coach no more. Garcia Para did
Speaker 5: a whole thing on TV about just the way that
Speaker 5: your stride seems to be more than it has been
Speaker 5: in years past. Is that something that you're conscious of,
Speaker 5: Is it something that you're trying to shorten up? What
Speaker 5: do you say about the stride being too big this year?
Speaker 10: I mean, I'm sure it has, I mean has varied
Speaker 10: throughout my career. And sometimes I'm taller, sometimes I'm more
Speaker 10: closed or open. Sometimes its strides a little bit bigger, shorter.
Speaker 10: Kind of just depends, and honestly, whatever's feeling right that
Speaker 10: day or whatever's working at the time. I just kind
Speaker 10: of ride with it. But this year I've kind of
Speaker 10: been searching for what's worked and trying to make that
Speaker 10: consistent every single time. So it's kind of just been
Speaker 10: trying to find something that's that's working and just trying
Speaker 10: and hold on to it.
Speaker 5: The last day at home, I thought it was amazing.
Speaker 5: I was waiting for you, Tucker, in front of your locker,
Speaker 5: and I was told that right after the final out
Speaker 5: of the game, you went into the cage to work
Speaker 5: to try to figure out whatever You're trying to figure out.
Speaker 5: Where does that come from? And do you believe too
Speaker 5: many swings can be counterproductive?
Speaker 10: I mean maybe at times.
Speaker 7: I mean.
Speaker 10: I mean I've hit after the game a couple of times,
Speaker 10: just trying to figure it out or hoping that something
Speaker 10: clicks so I go into the next day feeling better.
Speaker 10: So I mean, I mean hittings that constantly trying to
Speaker 10: get better. You're never gonna be perfect, but I'm just
Speaker 10: trying to find something that helps.
Speaker 5: I feel like All Star Break could help you reset,
Speaker 5: clear your mind, not have to talk to people like
Speaker 5: David Vass saying come back Yankee Stadium and be Kyle Tucker.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean Obviously, I'd like to not have the
Speaker 10: time off there an ulcer break, because that means you
Speaker 10: played pretty well in the first half and you get the
Speaker 10: opportunity to play in the Oscar game. But She's kind
Speaker 10: of most important thing is just trying to play better
Speaker 10: throughout the year, get to the playoffs and really take
Speaker 10: off from there.
Speaker 5: It feels like your teammates have continued to support you,
Speaker 5: love on you. How much has that meant?
Speaker 4: That's awesome.
Speaker 10: I mean this team is full of great talent and
Speaker 10: great people, so I mean everyone's here to try and
Speaker 10: one in another world's series and get back to the
Speaker 10: highest point in baseball. So I mean everyone's here to
Speaker 10: support each other and get better individually and as a
Speaker 10: group overall.
Speaker 5: Thanks a lot for the time. Great to share you
Speaker 5: with Dodger fans. It's not all about baseball. Tucker's a
Speaker 5: well rounded man right here. Hope the back feels better
Speaker 5: and I feel like, definitely this is going to help
