We'll check in with Tim Neverd and 0:01:49.600 --> 0:01:53.320 Rick Monday out the galpin Ford Broadcast booth. Well last night, 0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:56.920 Roki Sisaki got the start for the Dodgers. 0:01:57.000 --> 0:01:58.520 After a shaky spring. 0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:01.320 He was pretty good live last night's Walking the tight 0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:04.400 rope for four innings. Gave up one run on four 0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:07.960 hits while striking out four throwing seventy eight pitches, gave 0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:10.320 up an RBI double to Stephen Kuan in the third, 0:02:10.360 --> 0:02:13.680 the only damage done. He turned it over to Tanner Scott, 0:02:13.800 --> 0:02:16.440 who would pitch an inning of relief, striking out a pair. 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:19.240 He's looked good at his first couple of outings out 0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:22.360 of the Dodger bullpen. Justin Robleski came in after that 0:02:22.480 --> 0:02:25.079 and got into destroy trouble. In the seventh inning, loaded 0:02:25.120 --> 0:02:28.000 the bases. Reese Hoskins, a pinch hitter, walked with the 0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:30.560 bases loaded. That brought in a run and put the 0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:33.799 Guardians up two to nothing. And then up came Daniel Schneeman. 0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:39.400 Roblusky throws home, swung online the left. That's a base hit. 0:02:39.480 --> 0:02:43.320 This's we'll get two in. Martinez comes in, Here comes Kwan. 0:02:44.200 --> 0:02:50.120 Crow goes into second base, and now Cleveland has opened 0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:53.200 things up. They leaded Ford to nothing. 0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:57.440 Daniel Schneeman with a two run double dissenter as the 0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:01.040 Guardians up four to nothing. The Dodgers bats finally woke 0:03:01.160 --> 0:03:05.240 up in the ninth inning against Cleveland closer Cade Smith 0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:07.840 as Mookie Betts got the Dodgers on the board. 0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:11.440 There's two games going on right now. Mookie swings lines 0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:13.320 up to the cap and left center field, that's down 0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:16.680 for a hit. Tucker will score, ball splits the outfielders 0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:19.080 and goes to the wall around first and of the 0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:25.400 second standing is Mookie Betts and it's four to one. 0:03:26.040 --> 0:03:29.040 First double of the season for Bets and his fifth run. 0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:32.280 Batted in Dodgers on the board with an RBI double 0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:34.480 from Mookie Betts, and that is the top tier to 0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:36.720 play of the game, brought to you by Argo Quality, 0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:38.240 top tier gas for Less. 0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:39.480 Dodgers would tack. 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:43.119 On one more Freddie Freeman and RBI ground out scoring 0:03:43.200 --> 0:03:46.960 Mookie Bets. Dodgers were down four to two. Unfortunately, they 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:50.800 would get no closer as the Cleveland Guardians take this 0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:54.680 series opener. Parker Messek, the twenty five year old left 0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:58.560 hander six shutout innings, struck out five. 0:03:58.400 --> 0:03:59.160 Along the way. 0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:02.480 Rookies Zaki gets tagged with the loss after going to 0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:06.120 four plau sinnings. Justin Robleski would give up three runs 0:04:06.440 --> 0:04:08.800 in his relief last night as the Dodgers, for the 0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:12.600 first time this year, lose after a three game sweep 0:04:12.600 --> 0:04:15.160 of the Diamondbacks. Dodgers lose the series opener last night, 0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:18.120 but looking to get back on track tonight as show 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.800 Hey Otani goes for the blue first pitch at seven 0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:22.360 to ten, and with more we head out to the 0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:25.200 galloping four broadcast booth as we say hello to Tim 0:04:25.240 --> 0:04:26.440 Nevertt and Rick Monday. 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:28.240 Guys, thank you very much. 0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:28.520 Tim. 0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:32.320 Very overcast here over Dodgers Stadium as the Dodgers and 0:04:32.440 --> 0:04:35.839 the Cleveland Guardians gets set to play Game two of 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:38.760 this three game series, Cleveland winning last night by a 0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:41.600 four to two score of the bats just didn't seem 0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:44.160 to work very well for the Dodgers, in spite of 0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:47.400 the fact that they equalled the Guardians and hits with nine. 0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:49.680 It was just when they got the hits and they 0:04:49.720 --> 0:04:51.480 didn't put a run on the board until the bottom 0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:53.520 of the ninth inning when they played it two. But 0:04:53.600 --> 0:04:55.640 it just wasn't enough to get it done. The first 0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:57.640 loss of the season for the Dodgers and they look 0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:02.119 to recover here tonight against Tanner Biby, the right hander 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:04.640 makes his second start per start didn't go that great 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:07.760 form against Seattle on opening Day and show hey Otani 0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:11.760 will make his season debut. Otani feels healthy, he's ready 0:05:11.760 --> 0:05:13.839 to go, and he has a sight set on a 0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:18.640 Cy Young Award. But boll tonight the Dodgers will put 0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:22.240 Freddy Freeman back in the cleanup spot and Alex Freelan, 0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:23.760 the switch hitter, will be back in there at a 0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:26.320 bat left handed against the right hander Biby. What do 0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:27.640 they need to do to get the bats go? I 0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:28.560 get some tinly hits. 0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:28.760 Well. 0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:32.279 One good thing is reviewing last night's bowl game, it 0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:35.440 was not as if the Dodgers expanded the strike zone 0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:39.200 and we're swinging wildly at pitches that were not strikes. 0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:40.400 That was not the case. 0:05:40.480 --> 0:05:42.680 And if we look at Freddy Freeman, he's really, to 0:05:42.760 --> 0:05:45.520 this particular point, the poster child for hanging with him. 0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:48.280 He's hitting the ball relatively hard, no question about that, 0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:51.600 but just three for sixteen. And this is a ball 0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:53.800 club that normally we see a lot of runners on base. 0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:56.719 Not the case last night. Although the Dodgers, they were 0:05:56.760 --> 0:05:59.800 just three for thirteen with runners on base, two for 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:03.599 with runners in scoring position. And it is probably going 0:06:03.640 --> 0:06:05.880 to be changing with this lineup, no question about it. 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:08.920 But you know, so far, Dodgers are done a very 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:09.440 good job. 0:06:09.760 --> 0:06:11.159 Over the first. 0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:13.480 Four games with runners in scoring positions, They've hit three 0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:17.080 sixty four. The pitching has done a relatively good job 0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:19.719 two eighty six average against. I expect that to go 0:06:19.800 --> 0:06:22.719 down a little bit more, but you know you're going 0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:25.479 to have games like last night. And it wasn't like 0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:28.480 Cleveland just knocked the cover off the ball the entirety 0:06:28.520 --> 0:06:29.000 of the game. 0:06:29.240 --> 0:06:30.240 It was just a four to. 0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:32.720 Two loss, and the Dodgers hoping that they're going to 0:06:32.760 --> 0:06:35.800 rebound and wind up with a victory tonight so early. 0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:37.440 But you look at some of the guys, the big 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:40.520 bats on the Dodger club, and they just haven't gotten 0:06:40.520 --> 0:06:43.520 going yet. Otani two for twelve, Tuner three for fifteen, 0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:47.520 Bets three for fifteen, Freeman three for sixteen. Smith is 0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:49.400 three for twelve, but two of those are home runs, 0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:50.279 one of them a game winner. 0:06:50.360 --> 0:06:52.279 Yeah, and you can I get to Will Smith to 0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:54.880 home plate often enough right now to get him advanced. 0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:57.960 But yes, Otani, Tucker, and Freeman combine that. That's four 0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:01.920 for forty three, eight six average combined. On that end 0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:04.040 of it. That's going to change because those guys are 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:06.760 much better hitters. And you know, we're not even scratching 0:07:06.800 --> 0:07:09.000 the surface of the season. This is Game five and 0:07:09.000 --> 0:07:11.520 everybody's said, oh my goodness, the Dodgers lost last night. 0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:13.680 There's gonna be a few of them. It comes down 0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:17.440 to which teams. You figure you're going to win sixty, 0:07:17.640 --> 0:07:20.680 you're going to lose sixty. Well, what happens with the 0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:23.320 rest of the games. Those are the games that are 0:07:23.360 --> 0:07:26.400 captured by the good teams that go on to maybe 0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:27.360 win a World Series. 0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:30.240 It's one loss, No panic in the streets, please, It's 0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:32.480 the way baseball goes. You're gonna lose a game every 0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:35.000 now and then hoping to tie the series. Tonight are 0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:38.119 the Dodgers behind the right arm and the bat of show. 0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:41.280 Hey Otani is he will pitch, and he will lead off. 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:45.600 It'll be his one hundred first career start tonight. Tanner 0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:48.720 Bybee has the ball for Cleveland ten. 0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:51.000 All right, thank you guys, as we cut you down 0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:54.080 to first pitch.

But on the Mound show, Hey Otani. 0:10:13.800 --> 0:10:16.160 Last time out against the Angels in the Freeway series, 0:10:16.400 --> 0:10:18.040 four Innians, eleven strikeouts. 0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:18.720 He's ready to go. 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:22.520 Oh it's he is beyond ready to go. When you 0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:25.360 look at this guy, he only had two starts of 0:10:25.360 --> 0:10:27.679 course as a pitcher this spring because most of his 0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:30.040 time he is away from the team with Team Japan 0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:32.680 in the World Baseball Classic. And Andrew Friedman and the 0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:36.240 organization were very transparent when it came to show Hayes 0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:39.200 build up. They did not want him pitching with Team Japan. 0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:41.480 He of course continued with his build up, but there 0:10:41.520 --> 0:10:43.720 was a question mark as to what position he was 0:10:43.760 --> 0:10:45.320 going to be, how built up he was going to 0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:47.679 be by the time he returned back to camel Back 0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:51.280 Ranch to join the Dodgers, and he was so intentional 0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:53.920 in regard to his build up he was. He showed urgency, 0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:56.080 He did exactly what he needs to do, so he's 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.559 in an incredible spot. Even coming into today, the stuff 0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:01.880 looks fantastic. Dave Roberts said they feel comfortable with him 0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:04.920 getting through six innings of work. Obviously, if he's very efficient, 0:11:05.200 --> 0:11:08.000 that could be more. But just when it comes to 0:11:08.080 --> 0:11:10.640 who he is on the mound this year, he has 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:13.320 set big goals. He wants to post. He wants to 0:11:13.320 --> 0:11:16.200 be available every five to six days whenever he has 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:19.000 called upon. He wants efficient numbers, he wants a high 0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:21.560 strikeout rate, he wants to be in the conversation to 0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:23.880 win a cy young and so when you look at 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:26.360 all of these things he's putting his mind to this season, 0:11:26.720 --> 0:11:29.679 he is someone who has always expected just greatness. He 0:11:29.679 --> 0:11:32.080 has high expectations of himself, and for him to be 0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:35.120 verbalizing these things, it just shares that or it just shows. 0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:37.400 I should say that's it should be a special year. 0:11:37.720 --> 0:11:40.360 Every a special year for Soho Tani. But the goals 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:42.000 he wants and what he wants to do in Dodger 0:11:42.040 --> 0:11:45.760 Blue this year, I mean expect it truly on both 0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:46.440 sides of the ball. 0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:49.480 Speaking of aspecting the last year, we expected Tanner Scott 0:11:49.600 --> 0:11:51.480 signed a four year deal with the Dodgers and free 0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:54.520 agency to come out and be dominant. Unfortunately, he didn't 0:11:54.520 --> 0:11:56.880 have a really great twenty twenty five, But so far 0:11:56.920 --> 0:11:59.880 in twenty twenty six, Tanner Scott looked really good. 0:12:00.559 --> 0:12:02.640 Yeah, you know, this is the Tanner I think, like 0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:04.880 you said, we were hoping to see last year. He's 0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:09.000 had three appearances, three shutout appearances this season and even 0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:13.520 you know how this stuff looks last year. Dave Roberts 0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:16.160 talked about how he felt like Tanner was being a 0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:19.240 bit predictable this off season and even during spring he 0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:22.600 was working really closely with Connor McGinnis and Mark Pryor 0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:25.600 just when it comes to his delivery, making sure he's 0:12:25.640 --> 0:12:29.600 not giving anything away. So the results have been showing 0:12:29.679 --> 0:12:31.440 right now. It's even funny like I was supposed to 0:12:31.520 --> 0:12:35.320 have a conversation with Tanner this afternoon and he was like, 0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:37.440 you know, I would want to talk to you, but 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:38.960 I don't want to mess with the vibes right now. 0:12:39.000 --> 0:12:39.960 And so that's how you. 0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:42.840 Know he's feeling really good as well. He is looking 0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:45.120 to continue writing this hot he feels like the stuff 0:12:45.160 --> 0:12:47.400 isn't a really good spot, and so I told him, 0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:48.880 I said, listen, I don't want to mess with the 0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:50.880 vibes either. So if you're feeling good and you're telling 0:12:50.920 --> 0:12:53.160 me that, that is a very good sign. Because of 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:56.280 course he's executing his pitches. Even yesterday to see him 0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:58.559 in a situation to kind of help get Roki out 0:12:58.600 --> 0:13:02.600 of that inning, having guys on and executing against the lefties. 0:13:02.640 --> 0:13:05.400 Even Dave today was saying how he now can put 0:13:05.480 --> 0:13:07.720 him in positions and truly and put him in runway 0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:10.840 where he can be extremely successful. Something we've seen him 0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:12.959 do you know, he was the lefty killer or I 0:13:13.000 --> 0:13:15.960 should say lefty attacker, probably inside of the left of killer. 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:18.520 But how he was able to get lefties out, we're 0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:20.480 seeing that right now, and just kind of how it 0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:22.599 continues to set up the bullpen. So Tanner is in 0:13:22.640 --> 0:13:25.480 an excellent position. The bullpen in general isn't a really 0:13:25.520 --> 0:13:28.280 good spot as well. And so yeah, today we've got 0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:32.280 a lot of going on. Yoshi Yoshi's Yoshi bobblehead, which 0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:35.640 is iconic, and then Shoh having his first start of 0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:38.480 the regular season. Feels like a lot of good things 0:13:38.480 --> 0:13:39.640 are coming together right now. 0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:43.000 Baseball players are very superstitious all about routine. If it's 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:45.439 going right, let's not mess with it with Tanner stuff, 0:13:46.000 --> 0:13:48.679 right exactly? All right, here's so let's check with you 0:13:48.760 --> 0:13:50.640 after the game. Still they come here on Wrongo Casino 0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:53.120 Dodgers on deck. We'll dive deeper into this pitchy matchup. 0:13:53.200 --> 0:13:56.280 David Veasse goes one on one with Max Monti. But 0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:59.880 I'm nextull here from the manager Dave Roberts, Dodgers and 0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:01.920 Guardians on this Tuesday night. 0:14:01.960 --> 0:14:04.120 First pitch is seven ten. I'm Tim Kates is the 0:14:04.160 --> 0:14:06.760 back to back world champion Dodgers audio Network. 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:15.360 This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck on your home 0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:18.360 for the blue All season Law. 0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:23.240 Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck continues on this gloomy Tuesday 0:14:23.360 --> 0:14:26.040 night as we lead you up to first pitch. Dodgers 0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:29.520 and the Guardians Morongo Casino Resort and Spa a grand 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:32.360 slam for good time show. Hey Otani on the mat. 0:14:32.360 --> 0:14:34.160 First pitch coming up at seven ten. 0:14:35.680 --> 0:14:39.080 It's the La Dodgers Injury. 0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:41.960 Report, presented by our friends at UCLA Healthy official medical 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:44.400 partner of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Tommy Evan on the 0:14:44.480 --> 0:14:47.440 IEL to start the season, recovering from off season ankle surgery. 0:14:47.600 --> 0:14:49.640 Blake Snell is starting the year on the IEL the 0:14:49.640 --> 0:14:52.120 sore left shoulder. Brock Steer working his way back from 0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:55.280 off season shoulder surgery. Bruce dark gratterol slow to get 0:14:55.280 --> 0:14:58.520 going this spring because of this shoulder. Keik Aarnanda is 0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:00.680 starting the year on the sixty day i L. But 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:03.480 the good news is Dave Roberts seems pretty optimistic the 0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:05.920 way he's trending right now. He should be good to 0:15:06.000 --> 0:15:09.480 go once the sixty days is expired. Landing neck on 0:15:09.520 --> 0:15:13.080 the IEL at the inner costal strength Gavin Stone shoulder 0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:13.680 on the eel. 0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:15.080 Good news Dave Roberts. 0:15:15.120 --> 0:15:17.480 Last night you're saying the Gavin Stone is pain free 0:15:17.480 --> 0:15:21.240 in the shoulder, so he will again start a throwing program. 0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:23.560 Let's head back out to Dodger Stadium and check out 0:15:23.560 --> 0:15:24.320 with the Dodgers skipper. 0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:28.080 Anything else with the questions for Dave? Dave, can you 0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:32.000 just describe Dave? Can you talk about the pressure in. 0:15:32.040 --> 0:15:38.120 The dugouts with Dave Roberts, what I've learned about him, 0:15:38.240 --> 0:15:43.400 very focused, very determined, very doesn't get distracted, and you know, 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:47.240 when he sets his mind on something he wants to, 0:15:47.440 --> 0:15:48.280 you know, see it happen. 0:15:49.680 --> 0:15:52.400 So, yeah, he's planning on going wire to wire as 0:15:52.440 --> 0:15:55.520 far as the pitching side, and obviously doesn't want to 0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:57.720 take any days off as a designated hitter. And then 0:15:57.800 --> 0:16:00.640 you just layering on if he's there, you know, the 0:16:00.720 --> 0:16:04.640 expectation to perform. 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:07.640 My unlimited palings what we saw, But just what kind 0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:11.240 of were your takeaways from, whether it's performance on the mound, 0:16:11.320 --> 0:16:12.800 how the stuff was looking. 0:16:12.680 --> 0:16:13.880 For those different things. 0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:17.240 I think that the thing that stood out most was 0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:20.920 he had two starts with us, and he realized that 0:16:21.720 --> 0:16:26.800 and so there was an urgency, but overtly you couldn't 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:30.120 see it, but there was real intention to make sure 0:16:30.120 --> 0:16:33.480 he was dialed in in both starts and he was 0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:36.720 very good. 0:16:37.680 --> 0:16:38.440 Secutors. 0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:41.400 Yeah, yeah, it does, it does. I think the feel 0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:45.400 for the breaking balls is much better. I think last 0:16:45.480 --> 0:16:49.160 year he was trying to introduce, you know, a slider 0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:52.760 with maybe a little bit more depth and just trying 0:16:52.800 --> 0:16:58.120 to get a handle on that. But now the ability 0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:00.280 to strike it shortened it to make it get a 0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:04.080 little bit bigger, you know, all the while still having 0:17:04.880 --> 0:17:07.480 you know, ninety seven ninety eight in the tank when 0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:11.520 he needs it. So fastball command last year was was 0:17:11.560 --> 0:17:18.080 interestingly commanded really well given his surgery. But I think 0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:20.520 the feel for the breaking ball was a work in progress. 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:22.760 But he's got a pretty good handle on it right now. 0:17:22.880 --> 0:17:26.000 All right, there's the manager, Dave Roberts getting his pregame thoughts. 0:17:26.359 --> 0:17:29.040 When we continue here on Marago Casino Dodgers on deck, 0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:31.720 we'll get the thoughts of the David vaz Say, who 0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:34.600 I'm sure is very happy about the Yoshi bobblehead night 0:17:34.640 --> 0:17:38.480 tonight he sellout crowd expected at Dodger Stadium for Yeah, 0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:41.440 Yoshi first forty thou and attendant get. 0:17:41.160 --> 0:17:44.919 That elusive Yoshi bobble ahead. 0:17:45.720 --> 0:17:49.200 He leads out to first pitch, Dodgers and Guardians first pitcher, 0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:51.560 Uniclo Field the Dodgers Staium at seven ten. I'm Tim 0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:54.119 Kates is the back to back world champion Dodgers Audio Network. 0:17:57.400 --> 0:18:02.600 As we were saying this Wrongo Casino Dodgers on Tech 0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:06.200 on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball. 0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:11.280 It's the Dodgers and the Cleveland Guardians, Game two of 0:18:11.320 --> 0:18:14.080 this three game set, first homestand of the season show. 0:18:14.080 --> 0:18:16.200 HEO Tani Tanner byby the pitching matchup. 0:18:16.320 --> 0:18:19.160 Dodgers Baseball's brought to you Alpoto, born in La and 0:18:19.240 --> 0:18:22.600 made for your game day. El Poto brings authentic Mexican 0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:26.879 style tomato sauces, salsas and hot sauces, El Poto Gourmet 0:18:27.280 --> 0:18:27.879 and a can. 0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:32.480 Joining Tim Kats on Dodgers on Tech. 0:18:32.400 --> 0:18:34.160 I accept everybody for who they are. 0:18:34.240 --> 0:18:37.439 This is Dodger insider David Basse. 0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:41.320 All right, DV a lot of buzz in the stadium tonight. 0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:43.280 We'll get to that in a second, but the Dodger 0:18:43.320 --> 0:18:46.320 bullpens certainly buzzing for what they've done. The first couple 0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:48.040 of games of this season, right. 0:18:48.880 --> 0:18:52.679 Yeah, outside of Justin Robleski giving up three runs last 0:18:52.760 --> 0:18:55.560 night in the seventh inning, the rest of the bullpen 0:18:55.720 --> 0:18:58.840 still has not allowed to run. And how about Tanner Scott, 0:18:58.880 --> 0:19:02.560 who had a reason to forget last year. He's come 0:19:02.600 --> 0:19:06.440 in in two separate games inheriting runners and he has 0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:10.920 stranded all three runners that he has inherited. So that's 0:19:10.960 --> 0:19:13.800 a much different Tanor Scott from a year ago. And 0:19:13.840 --> 0:19:17.800 that is a huge boost for this bullpen. And it 0:19:17.880 --> 0:19:22.000 all starts, obviously with Edwin Dias, a bona fide closer, 0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:25.639 something the Dodgers have not had in the last five 0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:30.520 years since Kenniley Jansen was closing out games to California. 0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:31.320 Love out here. 0:19:31.720 --> 0:19:35.960 And Blake Trinin even looks pretty good tim the velosities up. 0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:39.960 He's been able to get hitters to chase that sweeper 0:19:40.080 --> 0:19:43.360 that was so dominant for him a couple of years ago. 0:19:43.600 --> 0:19:46.600 So right now, and you had Alex Vesia back to 0:19:46.640 --> 0:19:50.520 the mix. Right now, the Dodger bullpen high leverage relievers 0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:51.520 are looking pretty good. 0:19:51.760 --> 0:19:54.639 Last year, David, it was a slow rollout for Showy 0:19:54.720 --> 0:19:57.920 Otani didn't get that first start till about June. Here 0:19:57.960 --> 0:19:59.960 he is first week of the season and he's often 0:20:00.080 --> 0:20:02.960
