Speaker 4: Much less than yesterday though. Man, Yeah, you know what
Speaker 4: it is, pe They aren't.
Speaker 3: They are not acquainted with the onset of Santa Anna's
Speaker 3: and the high temperatures that come prior to those winds
Speaker 3: blowing through. So they have sought shelter in the dodger, dugout.
Speaker 1: Shelter from the storm.
Speaker 3: Yes, they are sheltering from the sun and sitting in
Speaker 3: the shade. I'm looking at a number of different shows
Speaker 3: microphones in front of them getting after it. Our friend
Speaker 3: Jim Bowden, who's in there chatting for MLB Radio. I
Speaker 3: see the ESPN crew all taking shelter from the beating
Speaker 3: hot sun.
Speaker 2: Bowden's partner, Well, I understand he's got that two toned
Speaker 2: hair because he doesn't want to upset.
Speaker 1: I got to protect that floor. Sweatsuit gets a little hot.
Speaker 4: I think he took exception to your calling it. Are
Speaker 4: he might have, but you know, I took exception of
Speaker 4: Roman and Rodney going late. So there's a lot of
Speaker 4: people that have but heard around town. I take exception
Speaker 4: to your exception.
Speaker 2: Tim Kates had Bowden's partner on, the guy that used
Speaker 2: to play for the Giants, the radio guy, I forget
Speaker 2: his name, but yeah, Kevin Friends and he came on
Speaker 2: with Tim Katz and he did say as a guy
Speaker 2: that covers a lot of baseball and a guy who's
Speaker 2: been at Dodger Stadium for a bunch of playoff games.
Speaker 2: As we saw Bowden earlier in his Belore a couple
Speaker 2: series ago, he said that it's the most chaotic last
Speaker 2: night that he ever saw Dodger Stadium. And you and
Speaker 2: I were commenting on it. The people that we know
Speaker 2: that were at the game, people that get tired, people
Speaker 2: that get old, people that get a little bit bickery
Speaker 2: late at night, they all stayed for the whole game.
Speaker 1: He was a podcast spread Rogan. It was impressive. Stayed
Speaker 1: for the whole game.
Speaker 2: Everybody glued to their seat, realizing that they were witnessing
Speaker 2: something special, even when the evening wore thin.
Speaker 3: Matt and it did wear thin. Indeed, it did and whatever.
Speaker 3: I'll find a different number of the day. But I
Speaker 3: was gonna point out that even the oft sided celebrity
Speaker 3: fans and the negativit that has sent their direction, they
Speaker 3: all stayed Magic Johnson, Bateman, all them dudes were here
Speaker 3: through all eighteen innings. I saw Dan Henley posting videos
Speaker 3: of himself right behind the Dodger dugout.
Speaker 2: And did you see what social media Matt dugout? Social
Speaker 2: media Matt like blew up on all the gossip sites,
Speaker 2: blew up and everything because he had Justin Bieber walking
Speaker 2: through the dugout club area with his Toronto Blue Jay's
Speaker 2: shirt and then our jersey, and he went and sat
Speaker 2: right down next to Madison Beer and Justin Herbert and
Speaker 2: dapped him up and watched a bunch of the game
Speaker 2: and clandestinely from the AM five to seventy LA Sports
Speaker 2: Ben Scully Sweet brought to you by Strauss, our guy.
Speaker 2: Social media Matt had eyes on his super strong iPhone
Speaker 2: camera on that and it blew up everywhere. He sent
Speaker 2: it to kiss FM. He sent it and then kiss
Speaker 2: FM blew it up everywhere. And how much credit is
Speaker 2: he going to get from the powers that be?
Speaker 3: Will say be in a very baseball white fashion. He
Speaker 3: did get a smack on his ass and a good
Speaker 3: job buddy, Oh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, had a boy. Yeah we'll take that.
Speaker 5: Actually he got he got a chance to be in
Speaker 5: a raffle the gift card.
Speaker 1: He got two extra entries to win a gift card.
Speaker 1: That's what he ended up.
Speaker 2: But I was, I was up, as you know. Yeah,
Speaker 2: the level Up sticker is awesome. That makes me feel
Speaker 2: like I'm really doing a great job. Hey, we got
Speaker 2: more than forty thousand views on this thing, level Up,
Speaker 2: level Up. But overall, Matt, I have to say, I
Speaker 2: took to heart what what's that guy's name, Kevin Franzia, Yeah, Franzia,
Speaker 2: exactly the box wine, the box of wine, exactly right.
Speaker 2: And I took to heart what he said this morning.
Speaker 2: As a baseball guy who played for the Giants, who's
Speaker 2: been here a thousand times, he said that it was
Speaker 2: the craziest he's ever seen Dodger Stadium. And Matt, we've
Speaker 2: been through a lot of World Series now, and it's
Speaker 2: when we were talking to Brad Paisley yesterday, it's hard
Speaker 2: not to take it for granted how good this baseball
Speaker 2: franchise is how high performing they are and how much
Speaker 2: they expect to be in these situations, right, But I
Speaker 2: have to say it was I think and we remember
Speaker 2: the grabbing hands when the Dodgers were first in the
Speaker 2: World Series.
Speaker 1: What was that twenty seventeen eighteen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, everybody's freaking out about the apparel and have something
Speaker 2: that said the World Series on it.
Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, that's right. There were fights and I remember, yeah,
Speaker 4: the clubhouse and not the clubhouse stores, right, And I
Speaker 4: don't know.
Speaker 1: If that's happening this time around.
Speaker 2: I can only assume you very adroitly pointed out back
Speaker 2: then eight years ago that you could buy all of
Speaker 2: this stuff on loss log on you're good and you
Speaker 2: don't have to wait in line and fight with somebody
Speaker 2: from La Crasenna. But either way, we remember that, and
Speaker 2: that was back when we were set up in a
Speaker 2: different place. But just to get out of the stadium,
Speaker 2: to walk out of the stadium with the human traffic
Speaker 2: just up on the top deck and in the reserve
Speaker 2: level was absolutely I mean, it was just.
Speaker 1: That was mayhem nostrils to rear end.
Speaker 6: Well.
Speaker 3: I was talking to social Matt before we hit the air,
Speaker 3: and obviously he had to post all the videos post games.
Speaker 3: So game ends just shy of midnight, right like eleven
Speaker 3: fifty six or something like that.
Speaker 1: Before the clock strikes ridden up.
Speaker 3: By the time he was done with all of that,
Speaker 3: it was one thirty PM or one thirty am, pardon me,
Speaker 3: one thirty am. So he does not walk out of
Speaker 3: Dodger Stadium until one thirty am.
Speaker 1: He said.
Speaker 3: It took him an hour to get out of the
Speaker 3: parking lot. Still, that's how many people stayed.
Speaker 2: Yeah, everybody had hung around. Everybody felt the given a
Speaker 2: cup to them. Impact of the moment, and last night
Speaker 2: was certainly a moment. And even if there are people
Speaker 2: Matt hiding in the dugout down there from the merciless
Speaker 2: sheltered from the sun, merciless rays of the pre Santa
Speaker 2: Anna sunlight.
Speaker 1: They can't take what we can take. It's still you have.
Speaker 2: To admit, and I have a no leg to stand
Speaker 2: on because I'm standing up here, but you have to admit, Matt,
Speaker 2: that it is more subdued yesterday. At this time yesterday,
Speaker 2: it was a much different vibe down there, a much
Speaker 2: different media scrum down there. And as always, the Dodgers
Speaker 2: are out early, working out despite the late nature of
Speaker 2: the evening. Mookie Betts is back out there on his
Speaker 2: hands and knees. Here he comes doing his shortstop drills.
Speaker 2: And guess who's coming over here. He's a tall drink
Speaker 2: of water pee his rabbinical beer. Oh, it's a beautiful beard.
Speaker 2: He's a tall drink of water. He's like six four,
Speaker 2: he's a very large individual. Yeah, I'm up here because
Speaker 2: we didn't know when you were gonna come over. Straight
Speaker 2: out of Eastern Illinois, out of Bloomington, Indiana, Matt a
Speaker 2: place you know, well, oh exactly. We saw him earlier
Speaker 2: in the season. He's been on three different teams this
Speaker 2: season and waking up yesterday morning. Who knows if he
Speaker 2: knew that he would end up being a World Series
Speaker 2: hero for these Los Angeles Dodgers. It is joining us
Speaker 2: on your Southern California Toyota Dealers celebrity hotline, Will Klin
Speaker 2: on the Petros and Money Show. What's cracking?
Speaker 4: Will?
Speaker 1: How are you? I'm good?
Speaker 7: How are you guys?
Speaker 3: Thanks for having me kidding me. We're talking to Will Klin.
Speaker 3: We're freaking great. How we are now?
Speaker 2: Did that bearded head hit the pillow at all last
Speaker 2: night or did you just stay up answering texts? What
Speaker 2: a wonderful night for you and your family. Congratulations, thank you,
Speaker 2: thank you.
Speaker 1: So what did you do? Did you stay up all night?
Speaker 7: I think I ended up falling asleep maybe around three o'clock.
Speaker 6: I had like five hundred plus messages to go through,
Speaker 6: and I tried to get through as many as I
Speaker 6: could and respond to friends and family and stuff. But
Speaker 6: I went through him and my wife kind of sat
Speaker 6: there trying to take it in after. And I don't
Speaker 6: think the drones worn off yet.
Speaker 1: I mean, you're on the roster.
Speaker 2: I mean you know that at a certain point you're
Speaker 2: probably going to appear in World Series games and you're
Speaker 2: with this team. But when you envisions off as an athlete,
Speaker 2: you envisioned something good happening for yourself. Could you have
Speaker 2: ever imagined what unfurled last night was gonna unfurl for
Speaker 2: you and this team?
Speaker 7: No, not at all, I said, Yesterda.
Speaker 6: I don't think I could have, you know, had a
Speaker 6: better dream or pictured a better outcome for at any
Speaker 6: point in my career, really, you know, and so just
Speaker 6: being able to go out there and you know, do
Speaker 6: do I didn't give our team that chance get Fred
Speaker 6: of that chance, like I think we all knew he would.
Speaker 7: Was just absolutely amazing.
Speaker 1: When's the last time you threw seventy pitches in a game?
Speaker 7: Think I think it was my junior year of college
Speaker 7: in twenty twenty.
Speaker 3: So what did what did it feel like? Like what
Speaker 3: you know, because you're a dude that throws gas, so
Speaker 3: I would assume that's going to affect But lastly, it
Speaker 3: didn't seem like it. But kind of what does it
Speaker 3: feel like when you're when you're taking up and you're
Speaker 3: going back out there for a fourth?
Speaker 6: Any Yeah, I just think the adrenaline helped me stay
Speaker 6: in it. You know, I got a little more out
Speaker 6: of myself there, but just being able to find, you know,
Speaker 6: that that last little uh bit of energy in myself
Speaker 6: and you know, stay in it, keep going, not not
Speaker 6: let us slip away there, And like I think you
Speaker 6: see it with with those last two pitches, uh yeah,
Speaker 6: you know, and Will call that last curve ball kind
Speaker 6: of like really gave me the energy I needed there.
Speaker 6: So I couldn't tell you, but it just kind of happened.
Speaker 2: Speaking of energy, was Will Smith looking like he was
Speaker 2: gonna fall over when when he came up to congratulate.
Speaker 2: I mean, it had to not be an easy situation
Speaker 2: of catching eighteen innings.
Speaker 1: What were those guys looking like?
Speaker 2: And when you looked in their eyes when you kept
Speaker 2: coming into the dugout, what did you see.
Speaker 6: I've never I've never seen a catcher go eighteen innings
Speaker 6: and and look as energized as as he was, you know,
Speaker 6: like I mean that that's why he's the starting catcher
Speaker 6: for Los Angeles Daughters. Like no one else could have
Speaker 6: could have done what he did yesterday, and just he's
Speaker 6: gonna go out and do it again today, you know,
Speaker 6: hopefully it's not eighteen innings. But you know, everyone like
Speaker 6: I don't know, I don't know. Everyone just stayed in
Speaker 6: it yesterday. Like you could hear the energy from our
Speaker 6: dugout every yet bad, every pitch, you know, second of
Speaker 6: the game, like they were in it.
Speaker 7: And I think that helps the guys on the field
Speaker 7: stay in it too.
Speaker 3: Will when you when you get the strikeout, you know,
Speaker 3: anybody in the stadium can't hear you because they're all yelling.
Speaker 3: We can't hear you on TV. You're not miked up,
Speaker 3: but it looked like you really gave out a primal scream. Now,
Speaker 3: if it is your everyday voice, it's a beautiful voice.
Speaker 3: Did you blow out your voice when you signed a
Speaker 3: little bit horse? Right now as we're talking to you.
Speaker 7: I think I blew up my voice Before I even
Speaker 7: started pitching, I was.
Speaker 6: I mean we hit we hit what two or three
Speaker 6: home runs before every time we scored a run, I
Speaker 6: was yelling and jumping around, and you know, and so
Speaker 6: even before I went out there is getting scratchy. And
Speaker 6: then yeah, each I think I yelled at every inning,
Speaker 6: you know, because I didn't know when it would when
Speaker 6: it would be the last one, and just like getting
Speaker 6: the zero and giving our chance to go back out
Speaker 6: and win the game the next like that was just
Speaker 6: such a great feeling that you know, you have to
Speaker 6: let something out each time, and the last one definitely
Speaker 6: like did some.
Speaker 1: Damage that looked like it?
Speaker 3: When did you start getting loose? Like what what was
Speaker 3: your are you doing it in the eighth and he not?
Speaker 3: Like when do you start kind of moving around? And
Speaker 3: how often did you have to get up and start
Speaker 3: moving around?
Speaker 6: I think I started doing like my normal stuff like
Speaker 6: round the you know, the fifth or sixth, just you
Speaker 6: never know what will happen. Obviously, it took a couple
Speaker 6: more innings to get there, but every couple innings or
Speaker 6: so do it again.
Speaker 7: Did bands probably four times yesterday through some plios.
Speaker 6: But just like whatever I could do to like stay
Speaker 6: in it and stay like ready and loose. I think
Speaker 6: I had, you know, two energy drinks, so yeah, the
Speaker 6: big ones, I think theyre reach like two hundred plus,
Speaker 6: But you know that that helped, and just yeah, just
Speaker 6: moving around pretty much the whole game.
Speaker 2: We know a little bit about your history because we
Speaker 2: have a former intern on this show that used to
Speaker 2: coach at Eastern Illinois, and we heard, just like Kenley Jansen,
Speaker 2: you started out your amateur career as a catcher.
Speaker 1: Why'd they move you to pitcher? And now look at you? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was.
Speaker 7: I was a catcher in high school.
Speaker 6: I was varsity catcher parts of sophomore and then junior year,
Speaker 6: and then my senior or actually broke my right thumb,
Speaker 6: so I couldn't I was pretty useless as a catch
Speaker 6: or that point, and I could still like try to throw.
Speaker 6: So I moved more so to like d H and
Speaker 6: like sometimes outfield it's the worst outfield you've ever seen.
Speaker 6: But then as that healed and I hadn't been catching,
Speaker 6: I moved like focused more on pitching, and then I
Speaker 6: was mainly a pitcher and summer ball stuf because I
Speaker 6: knew that's where I would go to college because I
Speaker 6: was not a good hitter. But yeah, I just made
Speaker 6: that made that transition a little easier, just having gotten
Speaker 6: the experience and in summer ball and stuff. And then you know,
Speaker 6: Eastern Illinois reached out as a pitcher I think after
Speaker 6: my junior like during my junior summer, and so that
Speaker 6: that kind of made the decision really easy.
Speaker 3: What what's the conversation like after two innings, after three innings?
Speaker 3: Like what are are you taking? Are you telling Doc
Speaker 3: you're fine? Is he asking you?
Speaker 4: Like?
Speaker 1: What is that? What's going on there?
Speaker 7: The conversation is keep going, keep going.
Speaker 3: Because we saw Yamamoto warming in the pan for for
Speaker 3: potential any nineteen? Were you gonna go back out different nineteen?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 7: No, I think I think that was Yama's game from
Speaker 7: then on.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I was.
Speaker 6: I was told I was done, and I think he
Speaker 6: would have been in the game, which would have been
Speaker 6: terrifying but really.
Speaker 7: Cool to see. That's I mean he's a different beast.
Speaker 2: Well, you've been a few different places. I mean you've
Speaker 2: been three different places this year. Well, and it's so
Speaker 2: cool to see this happen for you and your family
Speaker 2: and for the organization to have you there in that
Speaker 2: moment and all the stars aligned.
Speaker 1: How different is this Dodger.
Speaker 2: Team compared to some other organizations that you've been with.
Speaker 2: Is it different? Is it special? Or is it a
Speaker 2: plug in play? How does it work?
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I think you can see, especially with
Speaker 6: how everyone grinded out yesterday's it's a special team.
Speaker 7: And I mean I enjoyed my time with the Royals.
Speaker 6: They drafted me, and I spent a lot of time
Speaker 6: with the guys in that organization, and you know, a
Speaker 6: lot of good people over there, and I love the
Speaker 6: guys there. And then you know, I spent some I
Speaker 6: spent less time with Days and the Maryors obviously, but
Speaker 6: there are a lot of good people on those guys
Speaker 6: and on those teams and good players. But I think
Speaker 6: you just just see it when you have when you
Speaker 6: intentionally walk show. Hey, and now you have to face
Speaker 6: former VP Mookie Betts or he E's out, and then
Speaker 6: you gotta face former world Series and would be Freddy
Speaker 6: Freeman or then Will Smith or tayl or Max Mounts.
Speaker 6: You're however, many like other guys you want to name
Speaker 6: that can go and win the game for themselves. It's
Speaker 6: just like there's never a free out with this team,
Speaker 6: you know, and so it's and then same thing with
Speaker 6: the pitching staff. I could you could say we have
Speaker 6: five asses on the team and then like there's been
Speaker 6: talks about the bullpend whole year, but I think you
Speaker 6: saw yesterday what it's really about when you know, when
Speaker 6: when it's needed, and just every one of this team
Speaker 6: is willing to win, to grind their butts off to
Speaker 6: get a win.
Speaker 3: You know, we're on the field, it's game for the
Speaker 3: World Series. And we know you've been asked a lot
Speaker 3: of these same questions, and so we appreciate you entertaining us.
Speaker 1: That's why his voice is so blown out right.
Speaker 3: One thing that the Petrosen Money Show does better than
Speaker 3: anybody else just talk directional university sports. So if we
Speaker 3: may engage here a little Panthers, leathernecks, Selukis Huskies, those
Speaker 3: evil cardinals of Illinois State.
Speaker 1: Like what was the great rivalry?
Speaker 3: Was it? Where the Sycamores involved at all. Like, let's
Speaker 3: take us through your amateur career and who was the
Speaker 3: most Was it the LEATHERNX who was the most hated
Speaker 3: of all the directional universities that you took on?
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't think we ever played the leather Neck. No,
Speaker 6: I don't think we played the Huskies up. Oh no, No,
Speaker 6: I think we obviously we played the Seluki's. Probably played
Speaker 6: SIUV as well, but SIUI was the only one of
Speaker 6: those that were in our conference, okay, because I think
Speaker 6: we were the further northernmost team in our conference. So yeah, SIU.
Speaker 6: E didn't really like them very much. Played Illinois State.
Speaker 1: You just don't like.
Speaker 6: Anybody you play against, you know, exactly right. I didn't
Speaker 6: like Tennessee Tech very much.
Speaker 4: It was you know, nobody likes Tennessee Tech.
Speaker 7: Exactly ever heard of them?
Speaker 6: They won sixty games though in twenty nineteen twenty they
Speaker 6: made it to the.
Speaker 7: Super Regional that year.
Speaker 1: Yeah they were at that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think they lost to Texas text saying I'm aware,
Speaker 6: but yeah, that was a team that was terrible play against.
Speaker 6: But that's s IU is probably at least favorite out
Speaker 6: of the.
Speaker 4: Directional and he was in the Quad Cities too.
Speaker 1: Well, come on, and we love the question so import forever.
Speaker 4: Gotta know there wasn't There was a Dodger reliever many
Speaker 4: years ago named Eric Ganie who also had a very
Speaker 4: very distinctive beard, and they used to sell shirts here
Speaker 4: with like the beard coming out of the chin, like
Speaker 4: like like you know, I'm sure that something like that
Speaker 4: is going to happen. I hope great things we all have,
Speaker 4: great things are in the future for you. Will.
Speaker 2: What a great night and what a special special thing
Speaker 2: to watch for all of the Dodger fans and baseball
Speaker 2: fans everywhere. Congratulations on your success. And here's the success
Speaker 2: the rest of the World Series.
Speaker 7: Yeah, let's let's finish this thing off. Thank you guys.
Speaker 1: There we go. Appreciate it.
Speaker 4: Will all right, big dude pee, Yeah, he's big, I
Speaker 4: can see.
Speaker 3: And he's rocking the the Otani Goat shirt. I think
Speaker 3: Rode Aware needs to get something going for Will climb right.
Speaker 3: Just a beard, yeah, beard, the rabbinical beard.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know he used to be a catcher,
Speaker 2: but towers over former catcher Tim Kats Indeed. Yeah, yes,
Speaker 2: I'll see if baseball in ninety six.
Speaker 3: The TMS photoshop banded doing a bang up job of
Speaker 3: throwing Kate's face on the five foot seven, two hundred
Speaker 3: and thirty pound Alejandro Kirk. Oh No, that was one
Speaker 3: of the better photos that I mean, you know.
Speaker 2: The one thing that kind of bugs me about the
Speaker 2: Kirk thing, it's like every single time anybody talks to
Speaker 2: him on scam or about him in the in the booth,
Speaker 2: John Smoltz, Joe Davis, they every single time, Yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: he just he doesn't look the part. Uh yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: look at that body. I mean, he's two hundred and thirty.
Speaker 2: He's only five. So it's like, can you not mention
Speaker 2: how fatt he is every single time? Can we just
Speaker 2: skip one over and then bring I mean, because guy's
Speaker 2: obviously pretty great?
Speaker 1: So what do we want to do next?
Speaker 3: Should I take the break and then Dave's going to

Speaker 2: an unlikely hero of Game three, Well climb.
Speaker 1: It is the one and only.
Speaker 2: David vass Our Dodger reporter, the tireless David Vassy from
Speaker 2: Spectrum Sports Net from MLB Network, and of course right
Speaker 2: here one.
Speaker 4: Off with an inside look at the Dodgers.
Speaker 1: This is the Vass Report with David Vasse.
Speaker 2: David Vass is here, brought to you by Service Titan
Speaker 2: dot Com. Dave, what's cracking?
Speaker 1: How are you? I'm feeling good.
Speaker 8: I was just telling Matt we had a full border
Speaker 8: calls until two am on Dodger Talk. I was thinking
Speaker 8: about taking it all the way to five point fifty
Speaker 8: five am and tossing it to Sax and Kate's this
Speaker 8: morning because there was a lot of people.
Speaker 1: A latch handoff, my man, what a great handoff. Stay
Speaker 1: on all day.
Speaker 2: Nobody needs to hear the overnight forget about coast to coast.
Speaker 8: You know who had Fomo That player hater himself been
Speaker 8: a text to me. He's like, oh, you're taking my
Speaker 8: airtime away, overnight airtime.
Speaker 2: Poor Mallard. It's like once in a lifetime game dead Ben.
Speaker 1: Just take it easy.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Sorry.
Speaker 8: You could talk about the commanders and chiefs tonight and
Speaker 8: everybody in La Care.
Speaker 1: So you've done a lot of these, Dave.
Speaker 2: I mean dating all the way back to twenty seventeen
Speaker 2: when way we were here and it was all new
Speaker 2: and everybody was scrambling over the apparel. Where does last
Speaker 2: night rank? I mean last series? Otani has the greatest
Speaker 2: performance individually of any baseball player in a playoff game.
Speaker 2: And now what we're watching is just crazy. I mean,
Speaker 2: how does this keep on happening, these reoccurring historic events.
Speaker 8: Well, I never thought I would live through another eighteen
Speaker 8: inning World Series game. I literally never thought that would
Speaker 8: happen again. Maximunthsy ended that one against the Red Sox,
Speaker 8: and it was different circumstances.
Speaker 1: I agree that one. I was like, just get this
Speaker 1: over with. Yeah, there was.
Speaker 8: A little bit more traffic, but it comes down to
Speaker 8: the same thing.
Speaker 1: If you want to be real about it.
Speaker 8: Why it goes eighteen innings Because guys now are built
Speaker 8: to try to swing for home runs. Nobody needed to
Speaker 8: do that. That game could have ended a lot sooner
Speaker 8: than it did. Everybody was trying to be a hero.
Speaker 2: Now, does somebody say something because I heard that on
Speaker 2: the radio broadcast being said like all these guys are
Speaker 2: just swinging. Well, it's true, and they were saying it
Speaker 2: on the TV broadcast Joe Davis and Smaltz.
Speaker 1: Does does Dave.
Speaker 4: Roberts like like one of those guys say dies like
Speaker 4: a football.
Speaker 2: Game, Like we get everybody together and say, hey, guys,
Speaker 2: shorten the swings. Does that happen in baseball? Or they
Speaker 2: just keep sending everybody out there.
Speaker 8: That would have been a great game plan to huddle
Speaker 8: everybody in the dugout. I know Nomar would have led
Speaker 8: that huddle to try not to swing for the fences.
Speaker 2: I hate to bring football references into every single interview reference.
Speaker 4: He's stupid though I can't really do anything. I don't
Speaker 4: as a kicker. He could appreciate that. At Bosco True
Speaker 4: Story and Georgia Tech wanted his.
Speaker 1: Like did they? Yeah, we did?
Speaker 2: Sponsored by the varsity. Nomarciaparts he doesn't do kickoffs. He
Speaker 2: does extra points and short field goals. We got a
Speaker 2: long guy that does the kickoffs, and we got a
Speaker 2: long field goal guy.
Speaker 8: But that's the reason why in twenty eighteen, in Game three,
Speaker 8: it took eighteen innings. That's why it took eighteen innings
Speaker 8: last night because somebody eventually was going to hit a
Speaker 8: home run. The mere fact is the Dodgers had more
Speaker 8: guys in their line up capable of being the hero,
Speaker 8: and of course Freddie Freeman, one of the best, if
Speaker 8: not the best hitter fundamentally sound in the game today,
Speaker 8: was not trying to hit a home run. His swing
Speaker 8: was getting better each of his last two at bats,
Speaker 8: and that was the result of him just being a
Speaker 8: good hitter.
Speaker 3: That the you know, I guess if you want to
Speaker 3: call it a negative side of it, positive side is
Speaker 3: it's the most impattive President.
Speaker 1: Of the Hall of Fame wants a little snick long
Speaker 1: good list game over here. He wants to stick that.
Speaker 8: Hey, what did you grab from Freddy Freeman last night,
Speaker 8: Josh raw Which what's going to Cooperstown tomorrow?
Speaker 1: We've got a lot of things that were working on.
Speaker 1: Nothing finalized. Yeah, okay, some seeds.
Speaker 8: We might have to get David Vessey's shirt from last
Speaker 8: night's game.
Speaker 1: Not a bad idea. Don't look for Maithsonian already came
Speaker 1: and took it.
Speaker 8: Don't look for any photos Johnson, who took all of
Speaker 8: them of Lauren Shahati and Freddie Hay.
Speaker 1: But Dave.
Speaker 3: The positive is, I don't think there's a more embattled
Speaker 3: unit in the postseason of any team than the Dodger
Speaker 3: bolpe and they're the star of the show. They're the
Speaker 3: ones that kept this thing scoreless after glass now left,
Speaker 3: or I guess the one run from trinin that put
Speaker 3: him in a position to win. I would assume, even
Speaker 3: though they're dead ass tired, that's got to be pretty
Speaker 3: damn good for a team that's just heard about how
Speaker 3: bad they are.
Speaker 8: Yeah, and look, Blake Trinon is the guy that Dave
Speaker 8: Roberts still remembers last year being a hero. But in
Speaker 8: the here and now he's been redline going back to
Speaker 8: last year and he just hasn't been the same guy.
Speaker 8: So it's ironic that the one guy that kind of
Speaker 8: had a hiccup was Blake Trianon. But the no names
Speaker 8: of Justin Robleski and Will Kliney. When I say no
Speaker 8: names across America, nobody knows who Justin Robert I didn't
Speaker 8: know who Will klein was. Yeah, so you know that's
Speaker 8: the ironic part of this. And the first guy I
Speaker 8: saw when I went back up to the booth to
Speaker 8: host the postgame show Dodger Talk was John Smoltz and
Speaker 8: immediately told me I was so happy for Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 8: That's the guy I wanted to get out of that
Speaker 8: bass's loaded jam. Nathan Lucas basses loaded. They bring him
Speaker 8: in to face him because of the false narrative to
Speaker 8: a certain extent of his postseason resume, and he would
Speaker 8: have heard it, and this is his last dance.
Speaker 1: It would have.
Speaker 8: Really crushed and took a lot out of this whole
Speaker 8: season if Kershaw doesn't find a way to get the
Speaker 8: Dodgers out of that twelve inning jam. But you know,
Speaker 8: it says a lot that a Hall of Famer like
Speaker 8: John Smoltz is thinking about that one guy, considering everything
Speaker 8: that happened eighteen innings.
Speaker 1: We just talked to him. How much interaction have you
Speaker 1: had with Will Klein? A lot.
Speaker 8: That's why you invest in everybody, not just Mookie Beds
Speaker 8: and Freddie Freeman. This guy has had a long road
Speaker 8: to get to where he's at right now. He had
Speaker 8: a live arm in spring training. The skinner report on
Speaker 8: him was he had a hard time throwing stre which
Speaker 8: he did and that's the reason why he got sent
Speaker 8: down during the season. But he put in a lot
Speaker 8: of work and found a way to throw hard but
Speaker 8: also throw strikes. And I know coming into the postseason,
Speaker 8: there were a lot of coaches, including Connor McGuinness the
Speaker 8: assistant pitching coach that was pushing for Will Klein to
Speaker 8: be on the postseason roster. And the reality is, unfortunately,
Speaker 8: if Alex Vessia doesn't have his family situation, we very
Speaker 8: well may not have seen Will Klein last night. He's
Speaker 8: on this roster because Alex Vesia is off it. She
Speaker 8: likes to interrupt, you know, she doesn't like people getting attention.
Speaker 3: Dave the going back to going back to Kershaw, and
Speaker 3: you know what you said about Smoltz, And I'm sure
Speaker 3: you had a feed of the TV broadcast. They had
Speaker 3: cameras obviously trained on his wife, Allen, and you could
Speaker 3: see just how emotional she was, completely overcome with emotion,
Speaker 3: did it? It felt like that wasn't just Smoltz and her,
Speaker 3: that was the all of Dodger's datum, Like, if we
Speaker 3: can only have one thing, can it please be this
Speaker 3: guy getting miss out?
Speaker 8: One hundred matt fifty thousand fans had the same feelings,
Speaker 8: maybe not to that extreme of Ellen Kershaw, because you
Speaker 8: don't want to see a Larry Holmes's type of situation, right,
Speaker 8: You want to see a guy go out and do
Speaker 8: well and look, the reality is you may see Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 8: There's a very good chance actually that you are going
Speaker 8: to see Kershaw in this game tonight, because Shoe heotni
Speaker 8: when he stole second base and was thrown out. From
Speaker 8: what I was told, that's when he started to feel cramps.
Speaker 8: And look, it's a warm day. The Dodger training staff
Speaker 8: started the hydration process.
Speaker 1: Last night on his way home.
Speaker 8: Yeah, so he's starting game four, seventeen hours after the
Speaker 8: final out last night, and he's got to go out there.
Speaker 1: So that's the reason why.
Speaker 8: With a thin bullpen and Kershaw only having faced one guy,
Speaker 8: one guy.
Speaker 4: What.
Speaker 1: He's going to eat Dallas. Oh yeah, you'll see twenty
Speaker 1: two on the Mounta today. Oh no, that is amazing.
Speaker 1: That's my prediction. Well, what are you think about the
Speaker 1: lineup being the same day? I hate it. I hate it.
Speaker 1: On call.
Speaker 8: Look, if Tommy Edmond can play six innings of extra
Speaker 8: innings in center field, there's no reason why he can't
Speaker 8: play center field today at Dodgers Stadium. From what I
Speaker 8: was told, he came in and he's feeling good. That
Speaker 8: right ankle, that right foot's feeling good. Look, Andy pa
Speaker 8: haz was on base or had four innings where he
Speaker 8: led off. He continued his postseason struggles where he still
Speaker 8: hasn't drawn a walk. He has four hits and almost
Speaker 8: fifty at bats. That's not what you want out of
Speaker 8: your ninth spot. Miguel Rojas at second base, Tommy Edmond
Speaker 8: in center field is what I was looking at today.
Speaker 1: But obviously Dave Roberts feels differently.
Speaker 3: What about just afe you and I'm just playing Devil's
Speaker 3: advocate here, did you feel like the at bats got
Speaker 3: better at least, you know, in that two hole he
Speaker 3: fights back to three and two like that. I'm trying
Speaker 3: to figure out what they're thinking and what the takeaway is.
Speaker 3: Did they see something in the at bats where they're like,
Speaker 3: you know what, maybe he saw it a little bit
Speaker 3: better as the game went on, and that's why they're
Speaker 3: putting him back out there, because I'm I thought the
Speaker 3: same thing last night halfway through the game, like, can
Speaker 3: you get someone on base in front of Otani so
Speaker 3: they can't intentionally walk them all over and over and
Speaker 3: over again.
Speaker 8: Well, even in the first nine innings, the two doubles,
Speaker 8: the two home runs, they wouldn't have been game tying,
Speaker 8: they would have been two run go ahead doubles.
Speaker 1: Yeah, two run home runs.
Speaker 8: And remember last year in the World Series, it was
Speaker 8: Gavin Lux hitting ninth that turned the lineup over to
Speaker 8: allow Freddy Freeman to come up with the bases loaded
Speaker 8: in Game five to allow the Dodgers to come back
Speaker 8: against the Yankees. That's what they need out of that
Speaker 8: ninth spot, and Andy pa has not only has not
Speaker 8: given it to them in the first three games of
Speaker 8: the World Series, he hasn't given it to the Dodgers.
Speaker 1: All postseason long.
Speaker 8: And the only thing I could think of is Dave
Speaker 8: Roberts wants better defense in center field and he still
Speaker 8: feels that Tommy Edmond may be a little limited in center.
Speaker 8: That's the only thing I could think of. But midway
Speaker 8: through this game, there's no reason why if Paz is
Speaker 8: not doing well, he should be out of this game.
Speaker 8: But you know, I'm a big advocate for Miguel Roja
Speaker 8: sitting ninth and Tommy Edmund playing center field.
Speaker 2: Dave, it's hot, but you're in black jeans. You're not
Speaker 2: even flustered. You were up all night last night and
Speaker 2: you seem as fresh as a rose. What's your secret
Speaker 2: this time of year?
Speaker 4: Dave?
Speaker 1: You had a delay in Toronto, coming home. The hell's
Speaker 1: going on?
Speaker 8: Love of the game, Petros, It's the World Series. This
Speaker 8: is what's what I lack. Yeah, five hours of sleep.
Speaker 8: Had to get on with kelvin Washington. Spectrum one News.
Speaker 8: You can find that and I believe it's free. Oh
Speaker 8: let me pick that up. Yeah, Spectrum one News. Anyway,
Speaker 8: uh so five hours of sleep, I went double okay,
Speaker 8: k dub that's right.
Speaker 1: So cole Brew.
Speaker 8: Phil's was out of my col Brew mission cole Brew,
Speaker 8: so I had to go to Blue Bottle cole Brew. Yeah,
Speaker 8: that's a real pick me up. And I might do
Speaker 8: an excel before first pitch today as well. You ain't
Speaker 8: messing around with the accelerator. Date, how much do you
Speaker 8: think they're going to be taken in the bullpen? As
Speaker 8: far as the energy goes?
Speaker 1: That's how much all of it? A lot of it.
Speaker 8: Somebody suggested maybe a talinol or in a leave as well,
Speaker 8: with an accelerator.
Speaker 4: Chase it with an accelerator. That's not a bad idea. Well,
Speaker 4: you know we used to say in that you know,
Speaker 4: he used to take two pills before football practice to
Speaker 4: bring back to football, and we'd say, why are you
Speaker 4: taking those two pills. We say, I got a Papa
Speaker 4: doucer to kill the chicken in my arm. Well, you
Speaker 4: went through a lot more pain than I ever did. Petron,
Speaker 4: I don't know, Dan. I couldn't man it last night.
Speaker 4: I couldn't have made it. I tapped out and went
Speaker 4: to sleep. Here walk up and looked at the score
Speaker 4: at five in the morning. Hey, you'll appreciate this. Kershaw
Speaker 4: on the third inning getting ready to pitch.
Speaker 8: At some point was doing his normal pregame rotation downward.
Speaker 1: Doggie like cetros. I saw him to a crow po Yeah,
Speaker 1: there we go.
Speaker 3: What about the uh Yama versus SNeW What? What was
Speaker 3: behind Yama instead of Blake?
Speaker 1: I got a great story for you. Here we go.
Speaker 8: I talked to Dodgers pitching coach Mark Pryor earlier this afternoon,
Speaker 8: snow trying to push to pitch last night, but they said,
Speaker 8: absolutely not.
Speaker 1: We need you for Game five, Mark Pryor told me.
Speaker 8: In the tenth inning, Yamamoto was staring Daggers at him
Speaker 8: from the far end of the dugout to the near
Speaker 8: side where he was standing next to Dave Roberts, and
Speaker 8: Prior's like, absolutely not, absolutely not, and will Ireton came
Speaker 8: over and was trying to talk to him, to convince him,
Speaker 8: relaying a message, and Prior's like, you know what, no, no,
Speaker 8: And then as it got closer to the eighteenth inning,
Speaker 8: they said, all right, go down there, get loose, see.
Speaker 1: What you got. And this is similar to the story
Speaker 1: of orrel.
Speaker 8: Herscheizer in Game four of the eighty eight NLCS, a
Speaker 8: day after pitching a complete game here at Dodger Stadium
Speaker 8: against the Mets. The parallels are eerily similar. Yamamoto, the
Speaker 8: last Dodger pitcher to pitch a complete game in the
Speaker 8: World Series, doing what the Bulldog did, or trying to
Speaker 8: do with the Bold forcing his way into that bullpen.
Speaker 8: And Prior told me he was throwing beebis down there,
Speaker 8: and he would have came in awesome in the nineteenth inning.
Speaker 8: So it was Yamamoto from the tenth inning on urging
Speaker 8: Mark Pryor and Dave Roberts to give him the ball.
Speaker 8: I know there's a language barrier, but that just shows
Speaker 8: you why Yama Moto is so beloved by his teammates,
Speaker 8: and that's why Otani and Roki Sasaki had their own
Speaker 8: celebration when Yama Moto came out of the bullpen after
Speaker 8: Freddy's walk off home run.
Speaker 1: They knew the sacrifice he was, they knew willing to make.
Speaker 3: I was thinking about it, and I was like, would
Speaker 3: have been awesome, would have been an incredible moment, but
Speaker 3: it would have completely overshadowed.
Speaker 1: Will Klein like it.
Speaker 3: Those four innings, I think if Yama Moto comes in,
Speaker 3: disappear because of that willingness, that worerior mentality, and it
Speaker 3: becomes a Yama Moto story. And I think those four
Speaker 3: the two innings from Enriquez, like, all of that kind
Speaker 3: of disappears because that becomes such a huge storyline.
Speaker 1: It does.
Speaker 8: And even with the Freddie Freeman walk off home run
Speaker 8: and everything Will Klein did, it wasn't lost on everybody
Speaker 8: what Yamamota wanted to do.
Speaker 1: All right, Dave, who are you looking at? I? Who
Speaker 1: are you eyeing? Eric Carross and his son Eric Carros.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks like Eric Carroll and Jared and Karen
Speaker 2: and Kyle, both of one of them just had Tommy John.
Speaker 1: I like both of.
Speaker 2: Them more than him. Well, you know that's fair. You
Speaker 2: got a terrible fight with him when we were hosting
Speaker 2: the show. Out of the day and there's still a
Speaker 2: steak hanging in the ballance. Dave, absolutely excellent work. I
Speaker 2: mean it feels redundant saying that to you. I love
Speaker 2: that you don't want to hear it. The only guys
Speaker 2: unbelievable John Guys. I here all night, last night, all
Speaker 2: day today.
Speaker 8: Part of the show gates all the mic Like the
Speaker 8: guy from Spectrum one News, did he grab it from
Speaker 8: you last night?
Speaker 1: Again?
Speaker 2: Dave Stave told me to get the guy a hard
Speaker 2: look because because the guy grabbed the mic.
Speaker 8: From Mondy to do a report, are you done? I
Speaker 8: was like, oh, Tommy, Edmond's coming right now.
Speaker 3: Okay, you almost punched Shaking in the face right there.
Speaker 3: You were trying to tap up one and Shakan was
Speaker 3: walking right by you and he had a duck out
Speaker 3: of your way.
Speaker 2: To send a message. Well, you know, it's a it's
Speaker 2: a low trajectory. That guy's like five to four exactly.
Speaker 2: Is the only guy here shorter than passing?
Speaker 1: How should you know that?
Speaker 4: Alejandro Kirkus two hundred and thirty fives.
Speaker 2: If they have to mention it every single time, I
Speaker 2: know he's a butterball. Would you leave the guy alone?
Speaker 2: For God's sakes, the one and only David vasse awesome.
Speaker 1: Work on FI seven LA Sports.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back with more great sports talk on
Speaker 2: You're Home of the Dodgers Live before Game four from
Speaker 2: the Dodger Dugout, it's Petrosen money. With the sun beating
Speaker 2: down and the East Coast media melting.
Speaker 3: Big thank you to David vass A, big thank you
Speaker 3: to Will Klein and our dear friend Juan in Dodgers
Speaker 3: PR back from the field in our iHeartRadio AM five
Speaker 3: seventy LA Sports Suite. Many of our VIPs have arrived early.
Speaker 3: The excitement is palpable.
Speaker 2: Oh it's great down there, but it's not like it
Speaker 2: was yesterday. It's filled in, there's no doubt. It looks
Speaker 2: a little bit more like it did yesterday. But I
Speaker 2: think people are a lot like the bats in the
Speaker 2: in the extra innings Conzado, Matt, A lot of.
Speaker 4: People are tired, dragging a little bit long last night,
Speaker 4: except for David Vassa.
Speaker 1: He's all led up.
Speaker 3: Like he said, he legitimately wanted to go another hour,
Speaker 3: but he felt bad for Colin Ye back at the
Speaker 3: station and being the team player that he is because
Speaker 3: they did have a full board of calls. Everyone was
Speaker 3: freaking out. Why not keep it going? It's the world series.
Speaker 3: There's only a maximum for more of these. But I
Speaker 3: think save David Bessay.
Speaker 1: You're right.
Speaker 3: Everybody dragging ass a little bit down there, and I
Speaker 3: would like to come in Producer Tim Kates and the
Speaker 3: Petrosen Money Show. Could we have banked and not bank?
Speaker 3: Could we have pulled another two to three guests? Absolutely
Speaker 3: everybody was looking at us like, I want to be
Speaker 3: part of the radio.
Speaker 4: You're right, but we said we'll be back tomorrow. I
Speaker 4: want to be part of this conversation.
Speaker 3: We'll be back tomorrow. Yeah, tomorrow, we'll have that conversation
Speaker 3: with you.
Speaker 5: One of the guys down there that we could have
Speaker 5: talked to if we wanted to, it will say for
Speaker 5: tomorrow is Cole Tucker.
Speaker 1: He had the curly hair. He's with Sirius XM Radio.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he is a former pirate, played with the Angels
Speaker 5: at the end of his career and he's married to
Speaker 5: Vanessa Hutchins.
Speaker 1: Is that right? Oh, that's that guy.
Speaker 3: Congratulations to the young couple. They just had a kid
Speaker 3: or something like that. Yeah, to go, So we'll get
Speaker 3: cold talk tomorrow, beautiful. We're so the young couple. Sadly
Speaker 3: they're both in their fifties now.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 2: Speaking of pop stars, last yesterday, part of our great
Speaker 2: battery of interviews, when we went down there was Brad
Speaker 2: Paisley and he sang the Dodgers anthem yesterday. And there's
Speaker 2: that weird stat where he sang the anthem in the
Speaker 2: Last Game three twenty eighteen eighteen in in game and
Speaker 2: that's pretty weird. And the Oak Canada guy, JP Sacks
Speaker 2: no relation to our own Steve Sacks Saxe?
Speaker 1: Is this guy different spelling?
Speaker 2: He messed up the words and the Canadians got mad
Speaker 2: as hell.
Speaker 4: I didn't know that it is Sacks a Canadian. No,
Speaker 4: oh that's not good.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Oh wait, Steve Sacks is from Sacramento.
Speaker 4: No, no Sacks Sax, JP Saxy.
Speaker 2: I have no idea if he is. But he screwed
Speaker 2: up the words. But one thing, he's from Toronto. There
Speaker 2: you go, so bab okay. So if he's from Toronto,
Speaker 2: he's one of their Yeah, he's one of their own.
Speaker 2: It's not our It's not like we had Snoop Dog
Speaker 2: sing Oh Canada.
Speaker 1: And he screwed it up, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: But what's interesting I heard Steve Sacks say the real
Speaker 2: ass Steve Sachs, not the not the one that screwed
Speaker 2: up the lyrics to Oh Canada. I heard Steve Sacks
Speaker 2: on Scam talk about how he well, you know, he's
Speaker 2: very patriotic. Steve Sachs is a real American. And he
Speaker 2: when it was a player, would get very very upset
Speaker 2: if and he said this word star search, if they
Speaker 2: would star search the anthem like no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: like sing it all wacky, like oh, do your own rendition.
Speaker 2: And Steve Sacks says, if you're not with Whitney Houston,
Speaker 2: we don't want to hear you star searching. And he
Speaker 2: relayed two stories that I thought you would find interesting.
Speaker 1: I heard this on Scam yesterday.
Speaker 4: He didn't like the Fergie national anthem. Well, he didn't
Speaker 4: even mention that one. He mentioned some from his time.
Speaker 4: He said, Kenny G.
Speaker 2: Petrosen money public public enemy number one, no doubt the
Speaker 2: genus he blew us off said he could do an
Speaker 2: interview for thirty sec.
Speaker 1: Thirty seconds, dude, so there's thirty seconds.
Speaker 2: There is nothing we want to do with you for
Speaker 2: thirty seconds, you curly haired idiot, get out of here.
Speaker 2: And he was star searching, as Steve Sack said, on
Speaker 2: his saxophone thing and making all kinds of notes that
Speaker 2: weren't supposed to be in there the way Francis Scott
Speaker 2: Key's attended intended, and Sacks threw a ball off his ankle.
Speaker 1: He fired one at his legs while he was playing
Speaker 1: the anthem correct or made right after.
Speaker 2: And then another time, Sack said, he was in the
Speaker 2: dugout and Donnie Osmond, of all people, was singing the anthem,
Speaker 2: and he was like five yards from.
Speaker 5: Sacks in Minnesota, there in Minneapolis, of the old Dome
Speaker 5: there in Minneapolis.
Speaker 1: And that's you're saying that.
Speaker 4: Donnie Osmond started to hot dog it a little bit,
Speaker 4: started to star search it a little bit, you know,
Speaker 4: rockets rid glu and he said, I turned right into
Speaker 4: his face and booed loudly, boo boo. And Kate was like,
Speaker 4: oh my god, what did Donny Osmond do? And and
Speaker 4: Sax was like, Donnie Osman ain't gonna do nothing. What's
Speaker 4: he gonna do? Donnie Osman ain't doing.
Speaker 3: As I just realized I thought, and I think obviously
Speaker 3: we're so far removed, and we have so many incarnations
Speaker 3: of America's Got Talent, American Idol, the.
Speaker 4: Voice, Star Search with star Starch with Eth ncmahon your yes, yeah,
Speaker 4: that our search that was that was the original.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And there's a lot of stars that came out
Speaker 1: of Star.
Speaker 4: Star Search was the original Gai.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we have so you think you can dance?
Speaker 2: But does anybody really remember solid Gold.
Speaker 4: Because sold Ontario dude forever he used to pop Area
Speaker 4: can Dance fever, Let's go solid Gold Dancer.
Speaker 5: Said that John Shelby and other teammates used to kind
Speaker 5: of give him the heads.
Speaker 4: Up who was thinking that they would hear the rehearsals yea,
Speaker 4: and who was gonna hot dog it? And they would
Speaker 4: tell him to not come out because Sacks would cause
Speaker 4: a problem like he did throwing the ball off of
Speaker 4: Kevg's leg or booing Donny Osmon right in his face.
Speaker 4: You gotta ask him about more examples, Kates.
Speaker 2: But tonight they have Tina see Tennische Tinache a pop star.
Speaker 2: He sounds right, he's gonna sing the national anthem.
Speaker 1: And Debbie Cox, Deborah.
Speaker 4: Cox, Debrah Cox is doing o Canada.
Speaker 2: She's gonna do oh Canada, and she is not a Canadian.
Speaker 2: So those are your two anthem singers tonight and it
Speaker 2: should be a lot of fun at Dodger Stadium, although,
Speaker 2: as you said, Matt, there is a little bit of
Speaker 2: ass dragon out there.
Speaker 1: It is wild that Brad Paisley.
Speaker 3: We asked him what his record was and he's only
Speaker 3: sung it three times. Last night was his fourth, I
Speaker 3: believe if I could remember, he said, I'm gonna go
Speaker 3: to and oh because I'm not counting twenty seventeen with
Speaker 3: the cheaters, right, so last night would be just his
Speaker 3: fourth time singing the anthem since twenty seventeen here who
Speaker 3: knows where, and we got two eighteen inning games out
Speaker 3: of it. Just how like the Quittci it is to
Speaker 3: have the same anthem singer.
Speaker 1: What about them?
Speaker 3: I mean, if it's the Lakers and it's Jeffrey Osbourne,
Speaker 3: because he's saying it nine thousand times for the Lakers,
Speaker 3: that's one thing.
Speaker 4: But four times when you get two eighteen inning games
Speaker 4: out of it, and they used to run Osborne's record
Speaker 4: up there too, Oh my god.
Speaker 1: But yeah, the.
Speaker 2: Paisley thing is crazy, and the baseball side of it,
Speaker 2: the eerily similar stuff between Oral Hirscheizer coming in and
Speaker 2: Yoshi Amamoto, pretty awesome warming up last night that we
Speaker 2: got from David Vasse. All of it piques the interest because,
Speaker 2: let's be honest, this is a historic time and if
Speaker 2: you're a Dodger fan or a fan of Dodger Radio,
Speaker 2: you really are a spoiled rat bastard. And we all
Speaker 2: are getting to be here being around all these people
Speaker 2: and the World Series being in Dodger Stadium with a
Speaker 2: guy like Shoe hal Tani performing and guy like Clayton
Speaker 2: Kershaw ending his career, Guys like Freddie Freeman and Bookie
Speaker 2: Bets running around out there, and then the wild card
Speaker 2: part where you get a guy like Will Klein and
Speaker 2: he makes an impact and he was on three different
Speaker 2: teams and playing had a seven era with the Reniers
Speaker 2: in Tacoma earlier in the year. I mean, it really
Speaker 2: makes for a special situation that we all get to
Speaker 2: be part of them because we're Dodger Radio.
Speaker 3: The one thing that threw me off last night on
Speaker 3: the national broadcast was.
Speaker 2: Joe Davis taking a pain pill and showing everybody that
Speaker 2: his voice was hurting.
Speaker 1: No I didn't notice that. I wish I had. I'm
Speaker 1: taking a pain pill and you see smokes like.
Speaker 3: Booh the when Kershaw gets hot, and as we said
Speaker 3: down there with Dave, yeah, it was incredibly emotional. It
Speaker 3: was a relief for all the Dodger fans. What a
Speaker 3: great season he's had to be able to get out
Speaker 3: of that.
Speaker 2: Nobody wants to see him get scooped anymore in the playoffs.
Speaker 1: Matt, especially the way it went with Philadelphia.
Speaker 2: It's like watching Rocky get punched in the face over
Speaker 2: and over by Drago.
Speaker 1: You just don't want to watch it anymore.
Speaker 3: But it was hot that Joe Davis would then announce
Speaker 3: and that's likely the last time we'll ever see Kershaw pitch,
Speaker 3: and it's like he got one out.
Speaker 1: He threw seven pitches. You do realize that.
Speaker 3: Every single one of these pictures in the bullpen were used.
Speaker 3: Joe Haletani was on base nine times and he's starting
Speaker 3: the game trying to me at night, I mean.
Speaker 1: Trying to be infiniti if you end up saying something wrong, Yeah.
Speaker 4: I'm guessing the said shots probably gonna pitch tonight.
Speaker 2: You could say it could be the last tight we
Speaker 2: ever see him. I mean, I know you've been talking
Speaker 2: for five hours and you're tired.
Speaker 4: Right, but it's just very odd to say, Okay, we're
Speaker 4: closing the book.
Speaker 3: That's the way we want it to end. That's the
Speaker 3: ending that I want. This is what I want, right,
Speaker 3: But no, I think they probably need him.
Speaker 2: And Vassa with a very good point that they are
Speaker 2: going to probably pitch him tonight. That's what he thought.
Speaker 2: So we will see how that plays out. And we
Speaker 2: have another hour a great sports talk live from the
Speaker 2: suite as the PA comes on and everybody becomes bludgeoned.
Speaker 4: So I'm going to go to the back of the room.
Speaker 4: I can't sit out here when the PA starts.
Speaker 1: It's unfortunate. It's all about us and what we need.
Speaker 1: Just play some yacht rock. There's brother how.
Speaker 3: He's not muffing with he's not messing with his hair
Speaker 3: like Kinny was. And that guy in between him is
Speaker 3: the real tall dude that's come on with us before.
Speaker 1: Very excitable.
Speaker 2: I'm got to tell you, Kates keeps a real good
Speaker 2: pipeline with MLB TV and MLB Radio.
Speaker 3: They do right by us hand scam, but you know what,
Speaker 3: why wouldn't they We're the Dodger station. I mean, what
Speaker 3: other local radio you're gonna give.
Speaker 2: With Rep says you are the best. We'll be back
Speaker 2: with more of the best. Petrosen money showing Amphire seventy
Speaker 2: l Squest.
Speaker 1: You're a home. We're gonna put your head in an
Speaker 1: effing
Speaker 4: Ratchet wrap a ratchet upside your head, but you're a
Speaker 4: home of the Dodgers.
