Speaker 3: an absolute great day of celebration for your Dodgers. From

10
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 3: the parade, all the way up and down Grand Figueroa,

11
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 3: seventh Street temple where it all started, a temple on Broadway,

12
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 3: and then coming back here to Dodger Stadium, the double

13
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 3: decker buses unloading with Dodger players, coaches, their families. They

14
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 3: were all introduced onto the center field stage. And what

15
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 3: a celebration here in front of a sold out Dodger

16
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 3: Stadium crowd. And looking around right now, the field level

17
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 3: still pretty much filled with Dodger fans who have made

18
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 3: their way down there, as Dodger players are still mingling

19
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 3: around on the field. Clayton Kershaw right now is talking

20
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 3: to the MLB Network down their third base line in

21
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 3: front of their dugout and different players are coming out

22
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 3: talking to beat riders. There's still a couple of other

23
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 3: players mingling around with their families. But Dodger fans, players

24
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 3: just don't want this to end. And what a magical

25
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,759
Speaker 3: ride it was to get all the way to Game seven,

26
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 3: to win it in eleven innings, and to come back

27
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 3: home as defending World Series champions yet again, just a

28
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 3: magical run here in the month of October now November.

29
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 4: Crazy to think. Steve Sacks reminded.

30
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 3: Me of this earlier today scam which kicked off October

31
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 3: baseball coverage here on a five seventy with me and

32
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 3: Steve Sacks, started on September thirtieth, went through all of

33
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 3: October and now here the championship parade.

34
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 4: On Monday Nova. So it is a long run.

35
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 3: It can just imagine these Dodger players starting the season

36
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 3: as early as they did.

37
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 4: I went back and looked it up.

38
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 3: The Dodgers went to Tokyo and that first game of the

39
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 3: season was back on March eighteenth. March eighteenth, You gotta

40
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 3: go all the way back to Tuesday, March eighteenth, the

41
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,679
Speaker 3: Dodgers in Tokyo, Japan, playing the first of two games.

42
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 4: Against the Chicago Cubs.

43
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 3: I don't know about you that that feels like a

44
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 3: lifetime ago. When they squared off against the Cubs in

45
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 3: Tokyo and we saw Roki Sasaki and Yabamoda on the mound.

46
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 4: I mean, now you.

47
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 3: Fast forward to hear November three, and these guys are

48
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 3: World Series champions.

49
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 5: It is.

50
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 4: It has been a long ride, and.

51
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 3: Freddie Freeman said it there just a little while ago

52
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 3: with David Dad. They're about one hundred days away from

53
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 3: pitchers and catchers reporting and the start of spring training,

54
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 3: which is amazing to me because the Dodgers just won

55
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,519
Speaker 3: and there's teams around baseball, all but two of them

56
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 3: that have been sitting around for three to four weeks,

57
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 3: just waiting for this season to be over. And now

58
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 3: the Dodgers have a chance to rest in an exhale

59
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 3: and there'll be a chance to look at this roster

60
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 3: coming up in the next week's here. Free agency starts

61
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 3: in a few days officially, and the Dodgers will have

62
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 3: some players that go into free agency and they hope

63
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 3: to bring back, and some players they probably won't.

64
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,399
Speaker 4: Bring back next year. In twenty twenty six.

65
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 3: And maybe they'll bring in different players, but that'll certainly

66
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 3: be a big discussion here on an five seventy all

67
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 3: offseason long, it'll be an abbreviated offseason, certainly as the

68
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 3: shortened offseason with the Dodgers making it this deep into

69
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,839
Speaker 3: the World Series eight six six nine eight seven two

70
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 3: five seventy. We did it last year after this parade

71
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 3: covers in the celebration at Dodgers Stadium, David Vass and

72
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 3: I just took calls and wanted to hear from you

73
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 3: Dodger fans and just your your thoughts about the team

74
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 3: and the celebration. And we're doing it again today all

75
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 3: the way up until three o'clock.

76
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 4: And we had hand things over to Petro.

77
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 3: Some money eight sixty six nine eighty seven two five

78
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 3: seventy as we celebrate this Dodgers championship. And it's now

79
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 3: starting to file out the crowd, slowly but surely here

80
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 3: at Dodger Stadium, as the ushers are asking everybody to

81
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 3: leave down along the field level onlong the first and

82
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 3: third base lines. But uh, let's go out to the

83
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 3: phones if we can. Who do you want to go

84
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 3: do first? Guys, who's the first up, Juliet, Julian R.

85
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 3: Kady is our first call.

86
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 6: Go ahead, Hi, Julia sended On and Jdi loger F

87
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 6: and Sherman Oaks And we have a question.

88
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 7: Do you think k k will come back next season?

89
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 3: Oh, it's a great question from the both of you.

90
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 3: Thank you very much. Key k Hernandez in free agency,

91
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 3: will he come back? We'll find out. He certainly wants

92
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 3: to be back. He uh, he is a Dodger. I'd

93
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 3: find it hard to believe they don't find some way

94
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 3: to bring Key k Hernandez back. Now, the last time

95
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 3: he entered free agency, he left and went to the

96
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 3: Boston Red Sox and the Dodgers reacquired him after it

97
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 3: didn't work out in Boston. Now, if he's willing to

98
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 3: take for whatever money they have available, and certainly for

99
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 3: as many years as they're willing to offer, that's all

100
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 3: going to be figured out.

101
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,280
Speaker 4: And that's all something Andrew Freeman.

102
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 3: And Brandon Gomes and you know, Keiky Hernandez are gonna

103
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 3: have to figure out as far as negotiations. But certainly

104
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 3: you want to have a glue guy like that back.

105
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 3: And I say especially because you're losing Clayton Kershaw, who

106
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 3: is one of the heartbeats of this Dodger's team, and

107
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 3: if you lose him, you need to start making sure

108
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 3: you keep guys who are our culture clubhouse. You know,

109
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 3: guys that you can count on type of players. Then

110
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 3: you want to make sure that Keiky Hernandez is around

111
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 3: as long as possible, and that means bringing him back.

112
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 3: And hear the round of applause here at Dodger Stadium,

113
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 3: that is for Clayton Kershaw, who is saluting the fans

114
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 3: one final time. He just got done talking to the

115
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 3: beat writers and now he got done talking to MLB Network,

116
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 3: And it looks like Clayton Kershaw is making his way

117
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 3: back out onto the field and now back into the

118
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 3: dugout one final time year at Dodger Stadium. Oh, he's

119
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 3: actually making his way over to Sports in LA to

120
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 3: join the oral Hirscheiser and John hartsung a crew over there.

Speaker 9: I was just still trying to recover on the voice there,

127
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,279
Speaker 9: because I lost it somewhere between six and seven and

128

133
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:31,840
Speaker 3: was compared.

134
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 4: Maybe to a year ago?

135
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 3: It seemed like it was insanely crowded and full of

136
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:37,520

Speaker 7: How he did?

211
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 6: I remember, like five years ago, the conversation was, Oh,

212
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 6: it's he's baseball Dan Marino. You know here he is,

213
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 6: and it's pretty great. I just want to say I

214
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 6: came here from Buffalo, so everyone knows my teams haven't won.

215
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 6: Do not take this for granted.

216
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:51,719
Speaker 5: La.

217
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 6: Next year, everyone's got to show up the same way,

218
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 6: same fire, same energy. Don't get lazy as a fan.

219
00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 6: Do not take this for granted.

220
00:09:59,360 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 4: Do not.

221
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,079
Speaker 6: Oh a lot of people I've watched, my mother died,

222
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 6: my family died. The Bilgie Sabers have never won. We've

223
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 6: got three. Don't take it for granted.

224
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 3: So Dodgers, all right, Andy appreciate the phone call. Wells said,

225
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 3: you come from Buffalo, where you know about heartbreak, you

226
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 3: know about coming so close to winning a championship, and

227
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 3: being from Buffalo.

228
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 4: Toronto is close to Buffalo.

229
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 3: So I can only imagine what they're feeling there as

230
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 3: well as they were two outs away from a World

231
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,040

232
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 3: are on the replay in the dugout holding up to

233
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,360

234
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 3: World Series championship.

235
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:34,040

Speaker 5: I got two, I got two points. I want to say,

248
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,040

249
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,719

252
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 5: He got all the all the pictures in the pitch

253
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 5: and and Dave and mister Robertson pushed all the right buttons.

254
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 5: Yes the other day, it was two days ago, and

255
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,800

256
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 5: gratification from anybody.

257
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 13: Now everybody's talking about Dave Roberts. Now you got to

258
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 13: get that respect.

259
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 5: I'll tell you what I know about him. You know

260
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 5: what I know about him is my son and him

261
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 5: played room together in the minor leagues. My son and

262
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 5: Dave Roberts say, pray for Vice Tellia Oats and they

263
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:43,640

Speaker 4: Very cool, Charles, Yeah, very cool.

265
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 5: My son says. That's all they ever do is talk baseball.

266
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 5: And one last thing, let's get my boy Bellinger back

267
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 5: this year.

268
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 12: I like that.

269
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 13: I'm all in with Cody Bellinger. If I had a

270
00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 13: pick between Kyle Tucker and Cody Bellinger, bring back Belly, Charles.

271
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 4: We appreciate the phone call.

272
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 3: I mean it's enough right Dave Roberts talk about he

273
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 3: hasn't done this, haven't done that. Three World Series rings

274
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 3: as a manager ten seasons now nine in l West, titles,

275
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 3: five trips to the World Series, three World Series championships.

276
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 3: He said a Baseball's the greatest game enver invented. And

277
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 3: now he's up there with Joe tory Tonyo LaRussa as

278
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 3: the most career postseason wins as a manager.

279
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 13: I mean he is on a Hall of Fame trajectory

280
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,719
Speaker 13: right now. There's no doubt about that. He's a Hall

281
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 13: of Famer, no doubt. And he managed the last two

282
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 13: playoffs the best I've ever seen him manage. You always

283
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 13: talk about players developing into the players they eventually become.

284
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 13: This is not a slide at Dave Roberts. But when

285
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 13: he took over the Dodgers, who are ready to win,

286
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 13: he was a rookie manager in twenty sixteen. We have

287
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,679
Speaker 13: seen him get better and take more chances on his

288
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 13: players than we saw early on in his career. The

289
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 13: last two years he has managed flawlessly, and at some point,

290
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 13: if you're going to point the finger on Dodger talk

291
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 13: when things don't go right, you got to give this

292
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 13: guy his due, because now he's a three time World

293
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 13: Series champion. I feel like he in twenty twenty. I

294
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 13: know we weren't there. I was, but very high. Twenty

295
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 13: twenty was the year that he really came into his

296
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 13: own as a manager.

297
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,679
Speaker 3: Do you think he turned from being a manager that

298
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 3: maybe followed the book a little closer to now managing

299
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 3: more with his gut feel, so to speak, and all right,

300
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 3: I get this, I'm in the moment of the game,

301
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 3: and I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna do that, and

302
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 3: I'm gonna manage a little bit differently then I started

303
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 3: as a manager in twenty thirteen or fourteen, whatever it was.

304
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 13: Well, I think a couple of things happened. Danny Lehman

305
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 13: becoming a real voice next to him in the dugout,

306
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 13: that stringy haired bench coach. He understands the game plan

307
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 13: really well. Mark Pryor has helped him out a lot

308
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 13: as well. You see him discussing what he's going to

309
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 13: do with both those guys before anything happens.

310
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 12: So I think it's Dave Roberts.

311
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 13: But Dave Roberts is such a great manager that he

312
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 13: understands you have to get out of the ways sometimes,

313
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 13: and he's a great delegator of responsibilities to his coaches

314
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,439
Speaker 13: and he trusts his coaches to steer him in the

315
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 13: right direction along with you know, before the game. Every hour, Yeah,

316
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 13: there's a game plan meeting because the Dodgers are the

317
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 13: most prepared team in baseball. I'm not taking a shot

318
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 13: at the Blue Jays, but they have a knack of

319
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 13: being able to filter information to the players and to

320
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 13: Dave Roberts to simplify things and get the job done.

321
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,520

Speaker 3: Our coverage continues live a Dodgers Stadium. Tim Kaits along

343
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 3: with David Vasse. A great day here at Dodger Stadium

344
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 3: as we watch Clayton Kershaw walk off the field, hands

345
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 3: up in the air, and the remaining fancier at Dodger

346
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 3: Stadium saluting the future Hall of Famer as he makes

347
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 3: his way into the Dodger dug out one final time here.

348
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 4: David Besse, Yeah, that was surreal.

349
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 13: You know, I've been with Kershaw every single day since

350
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 13: twenty twelve. I've seen how much he puts into each

351
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 13: and every start and into his teammates, and that's why

352
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 13: everybody loves him and respects him. I think that's why

353
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 13: everybody gets emotional, because he doesn't just show up play

354
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 13: with the bad shoulder, a bad back. Over the years,

355
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 13: you think back to when the Dodgers started the year

356
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 13: in Australia. I mean, that's when he heard the back

357
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 13: of his shoulder kept pitching six weeks later, when the

358
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 13: cy Young and MVP in twenty fourteen. Was at the

359
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 13: top of his game. From twenty ten to twenty twenty, yeah,

360
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 13: I would say, yeah, I mean was he was the

361
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 13: best pitcher in baseball between those ten years.

362
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 3: It's kind of cool to see him understand the moments

363
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 3: and be in the moment and absorb the moment. I

364
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 3: feel like this year he knew he was going to

365
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 3: go into this in retirement, right, and so he absorbed

366
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 3: every single start, single day out here with his kids,

367
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,399
Speaker 3: with his family, with his teammates, with the media. It

368
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 3: was kind of cool to see that not a guy

369
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 3: just grinding every single day like you did for a

370
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 3: lot of his career, but at least kind of maybe

371
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 3: step back a little bit and soak it all in.

372
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, I would say the last two years,

373
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 13: he's enjoyed the moments more than he ever has before.

374
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:22,959
Speaker 4: That's for certain.

375
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,920
Speaker 13: He has enjoyed the moments more than ever before these

376
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 13: last two years. And yeah, it's just one of those

377
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 13: things that he he's meant so much to this organization

378
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 13: and I think the things that will stand out to

379
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 13: me are those things. Tim It's not the starts that

380
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 13: he made, but just seeing how he would be the

381
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 13: first one out here before everybody else. He would be

382
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 13: the guy that would you know, be there for teammates.

383
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 13: He would wash away starts, even after his no hitter,

384
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 13: he would start the next five day routine. He was

385
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,399
Speaker 13: so routine oriented. That's what will stick out to me.

386
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 13: And I've never been around a guy more prepared or

387
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:08,159
Speaker 13: works harder than Clayton Kershaw this side of Kobe Bryant,

388
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 13: because I was around him a lot, and those two

389
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 13: guys had the best work ethic as far as the

390
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 13: greatest talent to go along with it.

391
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 4: This clubhouse is going to feel a little different moving forward.

392
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 4: This team's going to.

393
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 3: Feel a little different moving forward without number twenty two there.

394
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 4: Every single day.

395
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,880
Speaker 3: I wonder how it looks, how how the leadership differs,

396
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 3: if it does it all with Freddie Freeman, Mookie Betts

397
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 3: maybe taking more of a role.

398
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 4: Or is it just stay the same.

399
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 12: Yeah, that's a great question.

400
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,199
Speaker 13: I really do believe that Blake Snell has to be

401
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 13: that guy in his own way. When you look at

402
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 13: the starting staff, Yamamoto obviously a language barrier, but after

403
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 13: what he did this year, there's a lot of respect

404
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 13: for him. But to me, Blake Snell needs to take

405
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 13: another leap of growth next year to kind of not

406
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 13: feil Kershaw's voice or shoes. Because Kershaw wasn't or isn't

407
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 13: really a bit big raw ross speech guy.

408
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 12: He isn't. Yeah, he led by example.

409
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:08,360
Speaker 13: That's put pressure on everybody else to work as hard

410
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 13: as he did. So Blake Snell has got to lead

411
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 13: by example in that way, and quite honestly, I think

412
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 13: we're forgetting about show Heyo Tani. He's that guy as

413
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 13: well that can lead by example. If he's going to

414
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 13: be a two way player, people are going to look

415
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 13: to him to lead. I think at some point now

416
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 13: you start to look at Freddy Freeman, show Heo Tani

417
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 13: as leaders on this team, and Mookie Betts isn't a

418
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 13: vocal leader either.

419
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 12: He does his own thing in some ways.

420
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 13: But those two guys have led in a lot of

421
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,360
Speaker 13: different ways. Freddie's organized team Dinners on the Road. He

422
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 13: was one of the guys that thought flying on their

423
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 13: own was a big h was advantageous, which it turned

424
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 13: out to be the Dodgers only lost one road game

425
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 13: in the playoffs this year. So Freddie Freeman and show

426
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 13: heo Tani to me? Will that void eight.

427
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 3: Six six eight seven two five seventy is our number.

428
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 4: We're live at.

429
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 3: Dodgers Stadium as the party wraps up, but we continue

430
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:11,200

Speaker 13: get this type of coverage. Tim Kates, you want to

444
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 13: talk about a guy that needs a nap show. Hal

445
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 13: Tani loves to sleep. Tim Kates has not slept since

446
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,320

447

448
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,320

Speaker 10: You know, everything stood out And I was just I

453
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 10: was reflected with my son on the way to school

454
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 10: this morning. He's eight years old. I told him I

455

Speaker 10: was eight years old when the Dodgers won in nineteen

456
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,880
Speaker 10: eighty eight, and just that we're living in a golden

457
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 10: era of Dodger baseball and just to really consider how

458
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 10: lucky he is and that we don't have to wait

00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 10: another how many years before we get to the next championship.

473
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 6: I was there for that game.

474
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 7: It was a great experience here with my goddaughter.

475
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 12: That's awesome. Ray, thank you for the phone call.

476
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 13: That was a great recorded call and your god daughter

477
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:09,439
Speaker 13: will appreciate that.

478
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 4: Keep that forever you know, it was it.

479
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 13: I got a little fun fact since we're reflecting on Kershaw,

480
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 13: because eighteen years is a long time. Where were you

481
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 13: in two thousand and eight? Tim, What were you doing?

482
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 13: How many kids did you have in oaight?

483
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 3: I had two kids at that time, and when Kershaw

484
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 3: made his debut, we were expecting our third. And as

485
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,360
Speaker 3: my daughter, Sadie, who's seventeen years old, said Clayton Kershaw,

486
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 3: that's all she knows is him as a Dodger, and

487
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 3: his career is longer than she's been alive, and so

488
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 3: she's sad to see him not be here next year.

489
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 4: And it's kind of.

490
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 3: Reflective for me because you see guys come and go,

491
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 3: You see guys you know, play long times for different teams,

492
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 3: short times for different teams. But when your kid is

493
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:55,919
Speaker 3: born and all of a sudden, this player retires and

494
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 3: that's all they know, it's kind of weird.

495
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 13: Exactly a lot can happen between now and eighteen years ago.

496
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 13: Kids were barely in grade school that are now in college.

497
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 13: Eighteen years ago, I actually set up my first date

498
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 13: with my wife at Kershaw's major league debut in two

499
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 13: thousand and eight. I was with big Head James Kelly

500
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 13: at the time. We came to the game because we

501
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 13: both wanted to see Kershaw make his major league debut.

502
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 13: We both went down to the bullpen there to watch

503
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 13: him warm up wearing number fifty four. My wife, who

504
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,199
Speaker 13: was not my wife at the time, was coincidentally at

505
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 13: the same game and we had organized for her to

506
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 13: come meet.

507
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:41,679
Speaker 12: Me at the stadium club.

508
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:42,360
Speaker 4: How about that?

509
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 13: And James Kelly luckily did not swoop me because he

510
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 13: had a reputation at the time. He tried, Yeah, I

511
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 13: boxed him out and at that point in time, we

512
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 13: set up our first date and the rest is history.

513
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 13: How about that first date at shaj in Santa Monica,

514
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 13: Another legendary spot in LA.

515
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 4: Eighteen years it go? When you met your wife? Yes,

516
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 4: how about that, David, I never knew that we're.

517
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 12: Still married too.

518
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 4: Does she know that?

519
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 2: Uh?

520
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 13: Well, I think I remember Charlie Manuel telling me, who

521
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 13: was the manager of the Phillies at the time, Stay

522
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 13: with this job and you'll stay married longer because she'll

523
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 13: miss you for those two weeks at a time that

524
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:21,360
Speaker 13: you leave for the road trip.

525
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 4: That's good advice. Yeah, that's great advice.

526
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 13: She gave me a free pass for tonight too, so

527
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,120
Speaker 13: uh Daddy daycare starts tomorrow.

528
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 3: Hello Jeff in Thousand Oaks. Next up here on a

529
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 3: FI seventy LA Sports David vass a tim Case live

530
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 3: at Dodger Stadium. Is the cleanup now starts here at

531
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:43,880
Speaker 3: Dodger Stadium.

532
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 4: Jeff Yellow.

533
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, hey, guys, Hey, thanks taking my call. First of all,

534
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 7: shout out to you guys, k LAC. Every time I

535
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 7: was on the road and I could not be in

536
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 7: front of a television, the next best thing on the radio.

537
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,679
Speaker 7: I loved it. Yeah, yeah, really really helped.

538
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 8: You know. I loved it.

539
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 7: It was a great Game seven. My stomach was not,

540
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 7: of course, like everybody else. And about the temph inning,

541
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:17,400
Speaker 7: I'm starting to starting to worry. I'm concerned, and I'm

542
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 7: thinking how many times could the Dodgers have lost this.

543
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,680
Speaker 7: They could have lost it in Game six, they could

544
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 7: have lost it a couple of times in Game seven.

545
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:31,360
Speaker 7: At some point, I'm not really superstitious, not that kind

546
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 7: of guy. I had this epiphany and I'm thinking, the

547
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 7: Dodgers are meant to win this. I know it sounds

548
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:42,439
Speaker 7: a little hokey, but I immediately relaxed, my stomach got better,

549
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 7: and I just said, they've got this. It's in the card.

550
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 7: Not taking anything away with their tenacity and their stick

551
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 7: to itiveness. Anyway, that's my story. I'm sticking to it.

552
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 7: It was meant to be. It was one for the ages,

553
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 7: and I'm still living and breathing it as long as

554
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,920
Speaker 7: I can until it's time to move on to the Lakers.

555
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 7: I guess the Lakers.

556
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 12: You don't want to move on to them, trust me.

557
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 13: But Mark Walter will change that narrative pretty soon here

558
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,640
Speaker 13: in the next year. Thank you for the phone call,

559
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 13: thanks to hearing what you had to say there. And look, Tim,

560
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 13: there's so many different moments from this postseason, not just

561
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,199
Speaker 13: the World Series, but a few of the things that

562
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 13: stick out to me.

563
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 12: We talked about this earlier today. Game six.

564
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 13: There is no Game seven without the Dodgers holding on

565
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 13: some miracle way in Game six, because if you're thinking

566
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 13: to yourself like we all are. How the heck did

567
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:41,439
Speaker 13: the Dodgers pull out Game seven being two outs away

568
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 13: from losing, and this parade being in Canada today?

569
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 12: How about Game six?

570
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 13: They were hanging on by a thread, the ball getting stuck.

571
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 12: In the wall. How lucky is that? I mean that

572
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,159
Speaker 12: a million, one in a million.

573
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:03,679
Speaker 13: And then Tyler Glass now gets Ernie Clement, who is

574
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 13: the best two strike hitter on the Blue Jays, to

575
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,679
Speaker 13: pop up to Freddie Freeman for the first out of

576
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 13: that inning with runners at second and third.

577
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,719
Speaker 12: And then keik A Hernandez.

578
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 13: Going against what the scouting report said on his own,

579
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 13: his own baseball savvy, moving in to be more shallow

580
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,120
Speaker 13: to allow him not only to catch the ball, but

581
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 13: to throw it to Miguel Rojas, who did not make

582
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 13: a routine catch on a bounce. And he told me,

583
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 13: actually after we were after we got off the bus,

584
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 13: I told you this morning that he was playing hurt

585
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 13: that injury that he sustained by trying to tag third

586
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 13: base in the NLDS when Alex Boehm and him were

587
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 13: racing to third base, that's where he injured his left

588
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,199
Speaker 13: He said, it's not his shoulder was somewhere like his

589
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 13: rib because it was hard for him to get ring.

590
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 3: Costal strain is what I think they that it was,

591
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 3: which is like underneath your armpit.

592
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:03,399
Speaker 4: Here we go along your side.

593
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 13: And he reaggravated it when he was celebrating Game six

594
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,920
Speaker 13: and he was so emotional. That's where he reaggravated it.

595
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 13: And you know he's playing hurt. He hits the game

596
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,119
Speaker 13: tying home run with two outs to send it to

597
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,199
Speaker 13: extra innings. I think about all of that, and I

598
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:27,719
Speaker 13: think about the new mister November Will freaking Smith unbelie

599
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 13: by the way, that makes two number sixteens that are

600
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 13: not welcoming Canada anymore because of Blue Monday. In nineteen

601
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 13: eighty one, our very own Rick Monday ended the Montreal

602
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 13: exposseason in Game five of that year's NLCS to send

603
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 13: the Dodgers to the World Series. And how about this,

604
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 13: another clutch sixteen sends the Dodgers to a World championship

605
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 13: in Game seven.

606
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 3: The word luck or unlucky has been thrown around a

607
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 3: lot in the last week or so. David I didn't

608
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 3: belie it as far as baseball is concerned. You hear

609
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 3: about the baseball gods and was it in the cards

610
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 3: for the team to win or lose, or this play

611
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 3: to happen or that play happened. But after what we

612
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 3: saw in Game six, the ball getting stuck, the keyk play,

613
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 3: the pick by Miguel Rojas' second, then all the stuff

614
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 3: that happened in Game seven, you have to start to

615
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 3: believe that there's something about lucky or unlucky in baseball.

616
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 4: It just really is you.

617
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 12: Make your own luck.

618
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 13: True, I would say the only luck was the ball

619
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 13: getting stuck. That's the only lucky part about it.

620
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 12: What else is lucky? That would be the one lucky thing.

621
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was it.

622
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 13: I mean, Isaiah Connor Fileffa not getting a big secondary

623
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,120
Speaker 13: lead off at third base is not it. I mean,

624
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 13: I guess in some ways the Dodgers are lucky that

625
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 13: Will Smith put his foot back down on home plate

626
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 13: on that force play, or the game's over, world series

627
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 13: is over. But that's not really luck. That's him having

628
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 13: the field awareness to know where he's at. Yeah, honestly,

629
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 13: the only thing that stands out to me as luck

630
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 13: is the ball getting stuck in Game six.

631
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 12: And here's the thing.

632
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 13: I talked to a couple of the Dodgers advance scouts

633
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 13: and Bob Garran, the Dodgers bench coach. They do not

634
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 13: teach and they did not tell their players if the

635
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 13: ball gets stuck in the wall to just hold up

636
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 13: your hands and stop playing.

637
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 4: They don't teach that.

638
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 13: They told him to play it through and then be

639
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 13: able to replay.

640
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 12: We'll be able to review it.

641
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 13: Play it through, grab the ball, get it back to

642
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 13: the infield, raise your hands, and then from there Dave

643
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 13: Roberts could review it and the umpires would have made

644
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 13: that decision. But what Justin Dean did was not follow

645
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 13: what they told him by just stopping and staring at

646
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 13: the ball. It was keyk a Hernandez who had his

647
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 13: arms up. We see that in the replay, but it

648
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 13: was Key a Hernandez screaming at Justin Dean to grab

649
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 13: the ball, throw it back in. He knew the scouting report,

650
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 13: he knew the rules. People don't know that.

651
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 8: Wow.

652
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 3: As it turns out, it was ruled ball stuck ground

653
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,959
Speaker 3: rule double runner who scored has to go back runners

654
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 3: on second to third, A huge, huge moment in that game,

655
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 3: and again that goes back to David. Everybody on this

656
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 3: team contributing from Dean to Will Klein, who will always

657
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 3: be remembered for what he did in Game three.

658
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 4: Everybody had a little piece.

659
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 3: Even Clayton Kershaw had a huge part in that eighteen

660
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 3: inning Game three, coming out and getting a huge out

661
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 3: in late in the extra inning time.

662
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 13: Yeah, every Lucas. He got Lucas. That was the game

663
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 13: on the line. That wasn't a ceremonial like, hey, let's

664
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 13: bring in Kershaw right in the twelfth inning to get

665
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 13: this guy, let him face this guy. No, the game

666
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 13: was on the line. It was a full count. If

667
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 13: he walks Lucas, the Dodgers are in real trouble. And

668
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 13: Kershaw told me, I'm not sure if you noticed this

669
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 13: on TV or if Rick Monday and Stephen Nelson mentioned this,

670
00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 13: but Clayton Kershaw was worn up the batter that Yamamoto

671
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 13: face that grounded into the game ending double play.

672
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 9: Mm hmm.

673
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 13: If he gets on or even if there's just a

674
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 13: fly ball out, there's two outs left in the game.

675
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,719
Speaker 13: In the eleventh inning, Clayton Kershaw was getting ready to

676
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 13: come in to face Dalton varshow whoa in the eleventh inning.

677
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 13: He told me that when we got off the bus,

678
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 13: he said, I never saw Will Smith's home run. I

679
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 13: never saw how Isaiah kna Fileffo got to third base

680
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 13: because I was locked in warming up, getting ready to

681
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 13: come in to face Dalton Varshow.

682
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 4: How about that?

683
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 13: And then when the it happened, the game ending double play,

684
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 13: he didn't know the game was over. He told me

685
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 13: he thought he was coming in. He had no idea

686
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 13: what was taking place because he was so focused on

687
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 13: warming up to come into the game. Kershaw was next

688
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 13: if there were two outs in the eleventh inning of

689
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 13: Game seven, to face the lefty Dalton Varshow.

690
00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 3: It explains why he was a little late to the party,

691
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 3: so to speak. Yeah, winning out on the field out

692
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 3: of the Dodgers' bullpen.

693
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 13: He literally told me that once the buses parked at

694
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 13: Dodgers Stadium.

695
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 4: That is awesome. That is David Vasse. I'm Tim Kase.

696
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,680

712
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:18,800

00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,799
Speaker 3: way back up Figaro to Fifth Street. David, we've seen

744
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:01,400

00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 4: Back of the day to today.

748
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,280
Speaker 3: I honestly believe this year's parade was bigger size wise

749
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 3: with people than last year's parade.

750
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 13: Great job by the Dodgers and the city to coordinate

751
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 13: the path and the route to make it longer and

752
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,799
Speaker 13: for more fans to be able to be on the

753
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 13: parade route to get a glimpse of their back to

754
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,400
Speaker 13: back World Series champion Dodgers.

755
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 12: And being on the.

756

Speaker 13: last year, Will Smith, Tommy Edmund Tyler Glass, now they

758
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,680
Speaker 13: were blown away by the enormity of.

759
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:42,399
Speaker 4: You could tell the size. You could tell.

760
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 13: We were talking about it and I would say, hey,

761
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,399
Speaker 13: is this bigger or better than last year? They said,

762
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:51,399
Speaker 13: I wouldn't say it's better, it's just bigger. And we

763
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,280
Speaker 13: love that it was longer. They loved that it was longer.

764
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 13: And they never took a break from giving back to

765

768
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:10,040

Speaker 4: Oh We're back. The party continues.

798
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,280
Speaker 13: We were just talking about the best speeches on stage.

799
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 13: I would say, hands down, Yamamoto was the winner.

800
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a Freddie Freeman who made a comment

801
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:58,440
Speaker 3: about twenty twenty four, done, twenty twenty five, done, twenty

802
00:38:58,440 --> 00:38:59,280
Speaker 3: twenty six.

803
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:02,800
Speaker 13: Starts now love it. I love that too. And Mark Walter,

804
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 13: the owners set the tone because he said we're back.

805
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,840
Speaker 13: He said that at the beginning. Yeah, Dave Roberts, Andrew

806
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 13: Freeman doubled down than Dave Roberts.

807
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 12: So when the owner, see, that's the thing.

808
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,759
Speaker 13: When you have an owner like that that has invested

809
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:21,440
Speaker 13: and given Andrew Friedman the resources to build this and

810
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 13: he says we're going to be back next year, that

811
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 13: sets the tone for everybody else. Means that he wants

812
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 13: more too, and that trickles down.

813
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 3: How about shoey Otani saying let's do it again, Yeah

814
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 3: next year.

815
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,080
Speaker 4: I would I like to speech more last year.

816
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 13: I thought Yamamoto was the winner this year because I

817
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 13: think we talked about this as well this morning. Not

818
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 13: only did he pitch the day after, but he also

819
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 13: warmed up for a possible nineteenth inning in Game three.

820
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,839
Speaker 13: So what this guy did to push himself where no

821
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 13: other pitcher has ever pit done before. You could talk

822
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 13: about Oral Hirsch, and yes, what he did was extraordinary,

823
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 13: But did he come into essentially three games, four games?

824
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 13: He came in in relief the day after for one out.

825
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,239
Speaker 13: He said that on Rogan and Rodney. What Yamamoto did

826
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 13: was pitch a complete game in Game two, then in

827
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 13: Game three warm up as he was going to come

828
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:26,200
Speaker 13: in for a nineteenth inning, then pitches in Game six,

829
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:30,880
Speaker 13: six innings, and then in Game seven comes in and

830
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:34,319
Speaker 13: pitches two plus innings to end the game. Nobody in

831
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 13: the history of baseball has ever done that. Nobody, I'll

832
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 13: say it right now, nobody has ever done that.

833
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,520
Speaker 3: Probably will never do it again because of the way

834
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 3: the game is structuring away guys. Hey, the way the

835
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:47,799
Speaker 3: guys just don't want to go out and do that.

836
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 13: And it goes back to mechanics, right, Pitching mechanics Yama Moto,

837
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 13: you know the javelin throws that's all focused and centered

838
00:40:56,160 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 13: about his lower half and oral Herscheizer explained that really, well, well,

839
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 13: the reason why he was able to do what he

840
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 13: did is because the arm is coming along for the

841
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 13: ride with his lower half generating all the power.

842
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 3: Let's hear real quick what Yama had to say on

843
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 3: the stage today earlier here at Dodger Stadium.

844
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:22,759
Speaker 13: The winner, Yeah, I love it than that.

845
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:24,440
Speaker 4: He cave Los Angeles right away.

846
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 13: He came on stage and said losing is not an

847
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 13: option because he told his teammates that during the NLCS.

848
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:34,720
Speaker 4: How much have you seen him grow?

849
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:38,440
Speaker 3: Dave in the last two seasons from a maybe a

850
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 3: quiet shy guy, battle through the injuries that rookie season

851
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 3: and then really had that coming out party in Game

852
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,719
Speaker 3: five here of the NLDS against the Padres. That to

853
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 3: me was that moment where all right, he felt like

854
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:51,920
Speaker 3: I'm here now, I'm at the big leagues.

855
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 13: Well, Key Ky Hernandez had a lot to do with

856
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:57,759
Speaker 13: that as well. It's true there's that famous meeting they

857
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 13: had after his first start against the pod and he

858
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 13: was getting ready to make another start and Keicky Hernandez

859
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 13: famously took him out to coffee without Hero his interpreter,

860
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 13: and just fired him up and reassured him, reinforced self confidence.

861
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 12: And be ready to go. Wait, we got the bulldog.

862
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 13: The nineteen eighty eight What World Series MVP, the Cy

863
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 13: Young Award winner, Sports Illustrated's Man of the Year nineteen

864
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:28,840
Speaker 13: eighty eight, the only pitcher to win the ALCS and

865
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:34,439
Speaker 13: NLCS MVP, and a guy that knows everything about being

866
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,920
Speaker 13: a bulldog and leaving his shoulder on the mound here

867
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:41,120
Speaker 13: at Dodgers Stadium, and now he does a great job

868
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:46,359
Speaker 13: on sports net LA. The one and only Oral Hersheizer Bulldog.

869
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 13: You heard me talking about you, Gill.

870
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,400
Speaker 11: I was getting a believe it or not, I was

871
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 11: getting a police escort out of Dodger Stadium. I mind

872
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:57,359
Speaker 11: down on sunset now, working my way to the one

873
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:00,200
Speaker 11: ten to get back to Pasadena, and I heard you

874
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,479
Speaker 11: and Katseie talking about it, and I'm like, I want

875
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:07,480
Speaker 11: to reiterate. What Yamamoto did might not ever be done again,

876
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,320
Speaker 11: but it'll have to be done with somebody that's his

877
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:14,360
Speaker 11: precise and well trained and understands how to use his

878
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 11: bones so that the muscles can just take it long

879
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:21,759
Speaker 11: for the ride, So it was very very special. I

880
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 11: brought one of my jerseys and signed it to him,

881
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:27,880
Speaker 11: from one MVP to another. I've got my Yamamoto jersey

882
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 11: here in the car with me, and hopefully next year

883
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 11: he'll sign it for me. But I am so have

884
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 11: so much admiration for that young man and what he

885
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 11: did for this ball club, what he did for this city, or.

886
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,239
Speaker 13: How did he do it? You talked about the mechanics

887
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,759
Speaker 13: this morning. You just mentioned the bones, the alignment, the mechanics,

888
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:49,399
Speaker 13: but it's extraordinary that his body responded.

889
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 12: I heard.

890
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 13: I was told by Mark Prior that when he was

891
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,799
Speaker 13: warming up for coming in for the ninth inning, they said,

892
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:58,800
Speaker 13: let's see how you feel, and he dotted ninety seven

893
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 13: in the bullpen for his first real throw.

894
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 12: How does he do that?

895
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:05,720
Speaker 2: Yeah?

896
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 11: You know, I learned an awful lot from Sandy Kofax,

897
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,440
Speaker 11: and I know you know Yoshinobu has learned a lot

898
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 11: from his throwing coaches, and Dave Wallace was part of

899
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 11: my crew, and Rick Honeycutt and Ron Peranowski, And it's

900
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 11: just really paying great attention to detail and understanding that

901
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 11: if you build a foundation. There's no sense for you

902
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 11: to really get tired if you can put the bones

903
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:30,960
Speaker 11: in the right order and you've got a chance to

904
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:34,640
Speaker 11: reach your full potential. And so the only thing that

905
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 11: was strong in my body, in my upper body was

906
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:40,879
Speaker 11: the grip on the ball. Is just to make sure

907
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 11: that the grip on the ball was firm enough to

908
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,359
Speaker 11: hold it as you create the arm speed after that,

909
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,319
Speaker 11: from my wrist to my elbow, from my elbow to

910
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 11: my shoulder.

911
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,520
Speaker 13: Oh, I know where he is. He's an echo park somewhere. Well,

912
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 13: there we go. You drop for a second orl yeah,

913
00:44:58,560 --> 00:44:59,080
Speaker 13: we got you.

914
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:03,879
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, I'm just clearing over the bridge here to Chinatown.

915
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 11: But you just get the bones in the right order

916
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,640
Speaker 11: and leverage the ball and you're you can. I've threw

917
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 11: many a pitch where my arm was just like jello

918
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 11: and just like a catapult.

919
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:16,480
Speaker 5: Right.

920
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 11: You just leverage the ball, keep going downhill in the

921
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:22,560
Speaker 11: right direction, get your hips in the right thing, have

922
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:26,400
Speaker 11: the right X factor between your hips and your shoulders,

923
00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:29,760
Speaker 11: and just let it happen. And just like in golf,

924
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 11: any of our listeners that are listening and you you

925
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,120
Speaker 11: do something in sports that you go, wow, I didn't

926
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:38,160
Speaker 11: feel a thing and that was my best. That's what

927
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,399
Speaker 11: you're looking for when you're throwing an object. And he

928
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,440
Speaker 11: can throw a javelin, he can throw a baseball, you

929
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 11: can throw whatever you want. You can be a quarterback.

930
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:51,120
Speaker 11: It's about getting it all in order. And once you

931
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 11: get it in order, it's a lot easier and a

932
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:54,479
Speaker 11: lot less wear and tear.

933
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 13: Okay, Oral, you name the bulldog because Tommy Losorda want

934
00:45:59,960 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 13: to bring something out of you. You maintained that nickname

935
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 13: not only because of everything that you detailed as far

936
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 13: as great pitching mechanics and you know everything you described,

937
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:16,520
Speaker 13: but your heart was a heart that nobody else had

938
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 13: to do what you did in nineteen eighty eight and

939
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 13: in other parts of your career, to do what you

940
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,880
Speaker 13: did with the Indians when people thought your career was over,

941
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:31,000
Speaker 13: what about you know the testicular fortitude that Yamamoto showed.

942
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 12: You can't do it without that, right.

943
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:37,840
Speaker 11: No, you can't, and you know there's a lack of fear.

944
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 11: But the fear comes into play. Then you use that

945
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:43,839
Speaker 11: energy in the right way. I mean, I always think

946
00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:47,239
Speaker 11: about heroes, and these guys are all heroes. The accumulation

947
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,319
Speaker 11: of all their heartbeats and all their hearts. I think

948
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:54,520
Speaker 11: about a hero is in the midst of tremendous trouble,

949
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:58,399
Speaker 11: and especially if you're thinking with the war example, there's adrenaline,

950
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 11: there's bullets firing everywhere, there's mortar fire, there's everything going on.

951
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:06,839
Speaker 11: But a hero doesn't give up, and a hero doesn't quit,

952
00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 11: and a hero feels the fear, but he functions within it.

953
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:13,440
Speaker 11: And that's what you have to do. You have to

954
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 11: learn to channel that energy. And when you've got a

955
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:19,760
Speaker 11: manager like Tommylsorda, or you got a manager like Dave Roberts,

956
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:23,880
Speaker 11: you pick up the heart of the lion from the

957
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:27,440
Speaker 11: leadership and then you just magnify it and you just

958
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,879
Speaker 11: keep going from what Dave Roberts is saying all year

959
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,239
Speaker 11: to these guys is that I trust you. And in

960
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,480
Speaker 11: the midst of him pulling him out of the lineup

961
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 11: or pinch hitting for them, or taking a guy out

962
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 11: of the game and bringing in a reliever, in the

963
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,800
Speaker 11: midst of that, he's built relationships at such a level

964
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 11: that they still know that they are trusted in a

965
00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:49,080
Speaker 11: big part of the team. And that is huge from

966
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:49,880
Speaker 11: your leadership.

967
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:54,720
Speaker 3: Speaking of leadership, oral from Mark Walter to the front office,

968
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:57,839
Speaker 3: to the star players, all of them today saying let's

969
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,200
Speaker 3: do it again next year in twenty twenty six. What

970
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:02,880
Speaker 3: is to stop this team? I mean, Clayton Kershaw won't

971
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 3: be back. But you look on that stage, you see

972
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,480
Speaker 3: all the talent that'll be back in twenty twenty six.

973
00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:09,880
Speaker 3: You see the leadership, and you see the love of

974
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:12,839
Speaker 3: this city to this team. This could be a run

975
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:14,799
Speaker 3: that we can see for a long time here.

976
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:18,680
Speaker 11: Well it really could. And you know, and then hook

977
00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:21,480
Speaker 11: in the Laker ownership now and what could happen to

978
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 11: the Los Angeles Lakers. This city could be in for

979
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 11: a huge run as the sports capital of the world.

980
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:31,879
Speaker 11: So our ownership group and especially Mark at the top,

981
00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:33,719
Speaker 11: but all the others, you know, you have Billy, Jean

982
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 11: King and Magic Johnson. You got champions throughout here, from

983
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,960
Speaker 11: the business world to the sports world to whatever you

984
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,879
Speaker 11: want to name. And they all get hungrier when they win,

985
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:45,719
Speaker 11: they all get hungrier when they lose. It's never going

986
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:48,319
Speaker 11: to leave them. It's part of their DNA. And it's

987
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,600
Speaker 11: so exciting to work for an organization like that, to

988
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 11: be around people like that, because it brings out the

989
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:57,240
Speaker 11: best in you, and you want to give your best

990
00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,920
Speaker 11: every day because the people around you are given their best.

991
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:05,200
Speaker 11: Eight type personalities don't enjoy b's and c's, and so

992
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 11: you have an organization that is all a and they're

993
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:10,759
Speaker 11: like A pluses. And I don't mean as far as

994
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,279
Speaker 11: grading them like in school. I mean like grading their

995
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:17,000
Speaker 11: passion and their execution of what they want to do

996
00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:21,239
Speaker 11: and their detail oriented. They are all about people. And

997
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:23,719
Speaker 11: when I think when this ownership took over and when

998
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:27,600
Speaker 11: Ned stepped aside and Andrew cook over, you know, everybody

999
00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:29,640
Speaker 11: labeled them as, oh, this is going to be data

1000
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:31,400
Speaker 11: and we're not going to have hard and they're not

1001
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,240
Speaker 11: going to know how to recognize real players that are gritty.

1002
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:36,600
Speaker 10: It's like it is the complete opposite.

1003
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:40,400
Speaker 11: They have been supplied the money that the fans have

1004
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:44,919
Speaker 11: provided by drawn four million people. They have then supplied expertise,

1005
00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:49,920
Speaker 11: and they have supplied data, and they have supplied just crazy,

1006
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:55,120
Speaker 11: crazy amounts of emotional skills of what as a champion

1007
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,160
Speaker 11: and what type of player do we want? And they

1008
00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:00,319
Speaker 11: add it all together and you get back to back champion.

1009
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 12: Or I'll come clean with you this morning.

1010
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:07,400
Speaker 13: I'm not sure if you heard driving in but Kate's

1011
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:10,240
Speaker 13: and Sax and myself were doing the first two hours,

1012
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:13,600
Speaker 13: and I asked Steve about the difference or what it

1013
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:17,560
Speaker 13: was like for the eighty eight parade compared to you know,

1014
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:21,319
Speaker 13: twenty twenty four and twenty twenty five, and he immediately

1015
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:26,400
Speaker 13: mentioned your sweater, your ugly sweater from the eighty eight parade,

1016
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:28,600
Speaker 13: and I told him, you still have that sweater?

1017
00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:30,600
Speaker 10: I still do.

1018
00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:34,439
Speaker 11: Yeah, And a fan actually sent me an extra one

1019
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 11: because at Kooji from back in the eighties, you know,

1020
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,359
Speaker 11: they're probably a little bit harder to find now, and

1021
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:42,120
Speaker 11: there's actually two of them. I have the original and

1022
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:43,919
Speaker 11: I think Joe Davis has the other one.

1023
00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:47,240
Speaker 13: What about what can you say about why Sax wore

1024
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:50,239
Speaker 13: a full suit to the parade on a parade flow,

1025
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:52,200
Speaker 13: we've never seen that before.

1026
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:56,120
Speaker 11: Yeah, I you know, I don't remember if it was

1027
00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:58,280
Speaker 11: a chilly day and that's why I picked a sweater,

1028
00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 11: or I was just the Johnny Carson Show.

1029
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:06,560
Speaker 12: So I was wearing a full suit. He told us

1030
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 12: he wear a full suit.

1031
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 11: Yeah, I don't know why he would do that, because

1032
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:12,239
Speaker 11: if you were going to look at that roster and say,

1033
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:14,760
Speaker 11: who would be the last guy to wear a full suit.

1034
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:18,840
Speaker 11: Number one probably would be Mickey Hatcher. I'm about to

1035
00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:21,040
Speaker 11: go through the tunnels. I'm about to throw through the

1036
00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:22,880
Speaker 11: tunnels on the one ten, so you might have to

1037
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:26,360
Speaker 11: fill so uh, I would say saxtually be in the

1038
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 11: top five of guys who wouldn't have a suit.

1039
00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:34,720
Speaker 13: Hey, I told Steve this this morning. This Dodger team

1040
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:38,520
Speaker 13: back to back World Series championships will go down as

1041
00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:41,480
Speaker 13: the greatest because nobody has ever done this before.

1042
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 12: But the most magical team.

1043
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:47,520
Speaker 13: In Dodger history was the eighty eight Dodgers, the greatest

1044
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:51,880
Speaker 13: underdogs in baseball history this side of the sixty nine Mets.

1045
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 4: And you were such a big part of it.

1046
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:54,000
Speaker 12: Oral.

1047
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 13: So for me personally, that has grown up in Los

1048
00:51:57,040 --> 00:52:01,239
Speaker 13: Angeles in my life. You know, I wasn't old enough

1049
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:03,960
Speaker 13: to recognize what the eighty one guys did. But in

1050
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,640
Speaker 13: my lifetime, the eighty eight Dodgers and these back to

1051
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:11,320
Speaker 13: back World Series champions are you know, are on another

1052
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:12,799
Speaker 13: level for me personally.

1053
00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:14,399
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1054
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:17,839
Speaker 11: I joined the Dodger organization as a seventeenth round draft

1055
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 11: pick in nineteen seventy nine, and I was a suspect,

1056
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 11: not a prospect, and all you wanted to do was

1057
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:25,920
Speaker 11: to have a shot, and then all you want to

1058
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,279
Speaker 11: do is you go up to the miners, is maybe

1059
00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 11: I can make it to the big leagues. And once

1060
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 11: you get to the big leagues and you get to contribute,

1061
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:36,719
Speaker 11: and then you'd become a champion. You're still feel humbled

1062
00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:39,840
Speaker 11: by the people that came before you, the Cofaxes and

1063
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:43,040
Speaker 11: the Drysdals and the Campanellas and the Jackie Robinson's and

1064
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:46,680
Speaker 11: the Tomulas Sordas and the Fernando Avenezuelas and all the guys.

1065
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:50,880
Speaker 11: And now it's it's great to stay humble and to

1066
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:52,800
Speaker 11: be just want to be a part of a great

1067
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:58,759
Speaker 11: organization because this generation might surpass every generation that has

1068
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 11: ever put a Dodger uniform, and we will just be

1069
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:05,800
Speaker 11: glad to say that we were there once. But wow,

1070
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,640
Speaker 11: what a run these guys are having. And these guys

1071
00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 11: are the best of the best of the best.

1072
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:16,800
Speaker 13: Perfectly said, love that you were listening the bulldog Oral Herscheizer.

1073
00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:20,319
Speaker 13: Your voice means so much to the city of Los

1074
00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:24,160
Speaker 13: Angeles calling these games oral. Your voice carries so much weight.

1075
00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:27,120
Speaker 13: It was a great season for you and I can't

1076
00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:29,279
Speaker 13: wait to hear you again next year.

1077
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:31,799
Speaker 10: You do a great job.

1078
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:34,320
Speaker 11: And I think with fans if they watched our broadcast

1079
00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:37,439
Speaker 11: today as you toddled over to TV and you see

1080
00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:39,920
Speaker 11: the hugs and the love that the players give you

1081
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:44,200
Speaker 11: after the interviews and as saying the goodbyes. They know

1082
00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:46,520
Speaker 11: you're a straight shooter, they know you're honest. They know

1083
00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:49,399
Speaker 11: you will you tell them like it is, but you'll

1084
00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:51,799
Speaker 11: also have fun with them and they respect you the

Speaker 11: next day and they absolutely loved you, loved the station.

Speaker 10: All right, let's do it.

00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:21,160
Speaker 4: All right?

1097
00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:24,319
Speaker 13: There he goes Oral Hersheizer. You'll see him in Pasadena.

1098
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:26,839
Speaker 13: He might see him at a steakhouse. You never know,

1099
00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:30,680
Speaker 13: but probably will. I don't know Tim oral Herscheizer. People

1100
00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:33,720
Speaker 13: always ask me, don't you get nervous talking to Freddie

1101
00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:38,240
Speaker 13: Freeman or Clayton Kershaw? I can honestly say I don't

1102
00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:40,880
Speaker 13: get nervous, but I have a lot of reverence for

1103
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:45,239
Speaker 13: their place and history. But I still get butterflies when

1104
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:47,520
Speaker 13: I speak to Oral Herscheizer, or I go into the

1105
00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:50,040
Speaker 13: booth and he's there and we're talking. I still get

1106
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:55,000
Speaker 13: butterflies whenever Mike Soshia is around, or Mickey Hatcher or

1107
00:54:55,160 --> 00:54:58,239
Speaker 13: Magic Johnson, who is my all time idol growing up.

1108
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:02,160
Speaker 13: That's who I still get nerve for. Yeah, and you know,

1109
00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:04,680
Speaker 13: I know these guys are on a different level now.

1110
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:08,200
Speaker 13: The team has gone to a different level. Three World

1111
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:11,400
Speaker 13: Series in the last six years, back to back championships.

1112
00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:14,520
Speaker 13: But the little kid and me will always hold the

01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:15,080

Speaker 13: cared about me more than just you know, a radio guy.

1219
01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:38,120
Speaker 12: He cared about my career.

1220
01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:41,600
Speaker 3: The relationship David, that you have with the players, the

1221
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:45,080
Speaker 3: coaching staff in the front office is not like anybody

1222
01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:49,200
Speaker 3: else in town or quite frankly around professional sports. Being

1223
01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:51,440
Speaker 3: somebody who travels with the team. As you said, you

1224
01:00:51,480 --> 01:00:55,240

1225
01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:58,200
Speaker 3: they need to know, giving your opinion, but also making

1226
01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:00,920
Speaker 3: sure you don't cross the line and the information you

1227
01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:03,080
Speaker 3: get and the people you talk to. It's a hard

1228
01:01:03,120 --> 01:01:05,280
Speaker 3: line to walk. You do it great, you have for

1229
01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:09,000
