Speaker 1: For the back to back World Champions of Baseball.
Speaker 2: One of the greatest runs in the history of baseball.
Speaker 1: Immortality is within their reach. Incredible and while others make excuses.
Speaker 3: The only reason the Dodgers are doing this because they
Speaker 3: can they print money.
Speaker 1: The Dodgers just can't continue.
Speaker 4: It's not fair.
Speaker 1: Are making plans.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a singular focus on controlling what they can control.
Speaker 1: This is Morongo Casino Dodgers on Dad.
Speaker 4: You have to fight off being satisfied.
Speaker 1: Your free game look at the back to back World
Speaker 1: Champion Dodgers is brought to you by Alignment Health Plan.
Speaker 1: Welcome to a new era of AG spectrum and by

Speaker 4: Hi everybody, and good morning.
Speaker 6: Welcome in to Morongo Casino Dodgers on deck on this Wednesday,
Speaker 6: May six, twenty six, as you're back to back World
Speaker 6: Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers wrap up this road trip
Speaker 6: in Houston after dropping two of three in Saint Louis
Speaker 6: over the weekend. The Dodgers now play in the rubber
Speaker 6: game with this three game series against the Astros. Dodgers
Speaker 6: won the series opener on Monday, fell last night to
Speaker 6: the Houston Astros, and today back at it, looking to
Speaker 6: head home on a winning note. Tyler Glass now on
Speaker 6: the mount, first pitch coming up at eleven to ten.
Speaker 6: Between then and now, we got a lot to get
Speaker 6: to and not a lot of times, So we're gonna
Speaker 6: be off and running here on Morongo Casino, Dodgers on deck,
Speaker 6: where we're gonna hear from the manager, Dave Roberts. We
Speaker 6: also here from Dodger catcher Will Smith. David vas Say,
Speaker 6: our Dodger insider joins us throughout the hour. Kirston Watson
Speaker 6: from Sports and at LA will join us. In just
Speaker 6: a little bit, we'll hear from Charlie Steiner. We got
Speaker 6: your Dodgers magical moment. In a few minutes, we will
Speaker 6: head out to the gallupin Ford Broadcast booth and check
Speaker 6: in with Tim Neverett and Rick Monday. Well, yesterday was
Speaker 6: Otani day, but just O'tani the pitcher. He did not
Speaker 6: serve as a hitter. Instead, Dalton Russian was a designated
Speaker 6: hitter as Dave Robert to let to go with shoey
Speaker 6: Otani as just the pitcher on the mount, and he
Speaker 6: was really good pitch deep into the game longest outing
Speaker 6: as a Dodger seven innings. He allowed two runs on
Speaker 6: four hits, struck out eight, did not walk a batter.
Speaker 6: His sweeper was nasty. Yesterday he threw eighty nine pitches.
Speaker 6: His era still sub one on this season, but got
Speaker 6: himself into a little trouble against Dodger Killer.
Speaker 2: Christian Walker has twenty nine career home runs against Los Angeles,
Speaker 2: most of those, if not all of them, coming when
Speaker 2: he was with the Diamondbacks. But he's got another one
Speaker 2: here as he just absolutely unloads on a Soheil Tani fastball.
Speaker 2: He ambushes him, hits it out of the back end
Speaker 2: of the Crawford Boxers. It's one nothing.
Speaker 4: Houston.
Speaker 2: His thirtieth home run in his career against the Dodgers,
Speaker 2: the most he's had against any other.
Speaker 6: Team, whether as a Diamondbacker now as an Astro, Christian
Speaker 6: Walker loves seeing Dodger Blue. Thirtieth career home run against
Speaker 6: the Dodgers a solo shot in the second. The Astros
Speaker 6: went deep again off Otani in the bottom half of
Speaker 6: the third inning, but that was it. Damage limited just
Speaker 6: to the two runs. He struck out eight over seven innings. Meanwhile,
Speaker 6: the Dodgers offense just couldn't together any back to back hits.
Speaker 6: There were one for eight with runners in scoring position.
Speaker 6: They stranded eight runners in the game. The long run
Speaker 6: they scored came in the eighth from former aster Kyle Tucker.
Speaker 2: One ball, two strikes to the Dodger right fielder. With
Speaker 2: pitch these wings lines up to right field toward the corner.
Speaker 2: Kyle's gonna round third, He'll score, and Kyle Tucker with
Speaker 2: a two out run scoring single Dodgers on the board.
Speaker 4: It's two to one.
Speaker 6: Kyle Tucker delivers with the RBI singled to right. Kyle
Speaker 6: Tucker having himself a nice little road trip, he had
Speaker 6: the only Dodger RBI of the game yesterday, as the
Speaker 6: Dodgers again had traffic on the base, bats six hits,
Speaker 6: four walks, zero for or one for eight with runners
Speaker 6: in scoring position. As showy Otani the victim of zero
Speaker 6: run supportay as he gets tagged with the loss. He
Speaker 6: is now two and two on this season. The ERRA
Speaker 6: still sub one is zero point nine to seven. Dodgers
Speaker 6: fall to twenty two and fourteen overall of this season
Speaker 6: and today a much needed win in Houston to win
Speaker 6: this series and to come back on a five hundred
Speaker 6: road trip before starting a homestown on Friday. Tyler Glass
Speaker 6: now just demand to be on the mound first pitch
Speaker 6: at eleven ten and with more we head out to
Speaker 6: the gaalpin Ford broadcast booth as we say good morning
Speaker 6: to Tim Nevertt and Rick Monday.
Speaker 4: Guys, Tim, thank you very much.
Speaker 2: Rufe closed again for the third straight day as the
Speaker 2: Dodgers and Astros get set for the rubber game of
Speaker 2: this three game series. Astros fifteen and twenty two after
Speaker 2: last night's two to one victory over the Dodgers. Dodgers
Speaker 2: twenty two and fourteen, still sitting on top of the
Speaker 2: National League Western Division by half a game over the Padres,
Speaker 2: who came back and beat the Giants last night. Dodgers
Speaker 2: have lost five of the last seven. They are homerless
Speaker 2: in six of their last seven games. They hope to
Speaker 2: turn things around today. Hey, yesterday, No, they just didn't
Speaker 2: hit the fastball. Dave Roberts talked about a little while ago,
Speaker 2: and when you have a pitcher throwing a fastball, it's
Speaker 2: not getting hit. He's not afraid to keep throwing more fastball.
Speaker 7: No, And if you're looking at the pitches, if you're
Speaker 7: gonna diagram, which is the easiest to hit? Nothing is
Speaker 7: easy here, but which is easier because it's not moving
Speaker 7: all that much? He doesn't have that spin would be
Speaker 7: the fastball, but not the case. Andy Biz was.
Speaker 8: Three for four.
Speaker 7: The rest of the team combined just three for twenty eight.
Speaker 7: That's a one oh seven average. And here's the other
Speaker 7: caveat The Dodgers have to break the habit that they've
Speaker 7: had now on this road trip in the five games,
Speaker 7: taking themselves out of innings and opportunities, they've hit into
Speaker 7: eleven double plays in the last five games.
Speaker 2: Showy Otani back in the lineup at the top of
Speaker 2: the order. Dave Roberts said he wasn't going to give
Speaker 2: him two straight days off with the day off tomorrow,
Speaker 2: but with Otani at the top of the order, he
Speaker 2: feels they have a much better lineup. And Otani pitched
Speaker 2: extremely well last night. Dodgers didn't get him and he
Speaker 2: runs and he suffered his second straight loss. But today
Speaker 2: he is trying to break out of an zero for
Speaker 2: seventeen skit. He does not have a hit on this road.
Speaker 7: Trip, but I think the swings have gotten a little
Speaker 7: bit better over each the last two games. Who've seen
Speaker 7: him as a hitter. One of the things that we're
Speaker 7: pointing out is that he's been pulling off the ball.
Speaker 7: His weight has been on his right heel, that's his
Speaker 7: front foot, and if he goes up the middle bit
Speaker 7: more often, he's staying on the ball much much better.
Speaker 7: So hopefully it's.
Speaker 8: Going to be a turnaround.
Speaker 7: Freddie Freeman batting right behind him, five game hitting streak
Speaker 7: in on this road trip. Freeman really starting to kind
Speaker 7: of balloon up. He is hitting over three point sixty
Speaker 7: on this trip, but the rest of the club is
Speaker 7: kind of hit and miss other than Freeman and Piez.
Speaker 2: For the Astros, they got terrible news today is they're
Speaker 2: starting short stuff. Carlos Correa will have to undergo surgery.
Speaker 2: A left ankle tendon tear happened in the batting cage yesterday.
Speaker 2: He said he heard something pop on a swing. He
Speaker 2: was in the lineup yesterday and right before the game
Speaker 2: the Astros had to make a lineup change. He was
Speaker 2: out and now he's going to be out for the
Speaker 2: remainder of the season.
Speaker 7: Well, what's the count now? Fifteen on the injured list
Speaker 7: for the Houston Astros. I mean they cannot catch a
Speaker 7: break at all. And meanwhile, they're fifteen and twenty two.
Speaker 7: They're a five hundred team at home. The Dodgers have
Speaker 7: to take care of their own business, and it's the
Speaker 7: old story. The Dodgers would love to have a happy
Speaker 7: flight back to Los Angeles.
Speaker 2: So the Astros and the Dodgers getting set for this
Speaker 2: final game of this three game set, in the last
Speaker 2: game of this six game road trip, will you send
Speaker 2: it back to you Tim?
Speaker 6: All right, thank you guys, as we count you down
Speaker 6: to first pitch. Dodger fans, what are you doing for lunch?
Speaker 6: How about getting your game day meal on at Shaky's
Speaker 6: Pizza Parlor. Sounds pretty good, Huh. Order your Shaky's Pizza
Speaker 6: shackin emojos at Shakys dot com. Coming up here on
Speaker 6: Marago Casino, Dodgers on Deck, you're gonna hear from manager
Speaker 6: Dave Robert David Vase goes one on one with Dodger
Speaker 6: catcher Will Smith has got a very funny event coming
Speaker 6: up tomorrow night in Beverly Hills.
Speaker 4: Deeper into this pitching matchup.
Speaker 6: But up next your Otani rewind ann we visit with
Speaker 6: sports and at LA's Kirsten Watson. That's all coming up
Speaker 6: as we lead you up to first pitch from Houston
Speaker 6: on this Wednesday Dodgers and Astros.
Speaker 4: I'm Tim Kates.
Speaker 6: Is the back to back World Series champion Dodgers audio nowhere.
Speaker 1: This is Morongo Casino Dodgers Hunting game on your home
Speaker 1: for LA Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: Leading you up to Dodgers and Astros on this Wednesday
Speaker 6: rubber game of this three game Saturday is but the
Speaker 6: first two Tyler Glass Now Lance McCullers Junior. The pitching matchup,
Speaker 6: first pitching Houston coming up at eleven ten.
Speaker 2: This is the Otani Rewinde Well two days, never shy
Speaker 2: about swinging the back, but he has missed time to fastballs.
Speaker 2: Now the next pitch, swing on it man strike three,
Speaker 2: got him with another fastball, tripled up on it. R
Speaker 2: Don Alvarez on deck one, two pitch waving on men,
Speaker 2: strike three on a ball that was four feet outside.
Speaker 2: Thank you very much to Jose al Twove for guest hitting,
Speaker 2: and he strikes out for the second time on a
Speaker 2: sweeper that.
Speaker 4: Was way off the plate.
Speaker 1: He had no chance.
Speaker 6: Yeah, show hey Otani yesterday the picture absolutely getting after
Speaker 6: Jose All two ve yesterday, striking him out a couple
Speaker 6: of times. That sweeper was nowhere near the strike zone
Speaker 6: and he had all two v absolutely fooled with the strikeout. Unfortunately,
Speaker 6: show hey Otani would go the seven innings, two runs,
Speaker 6: four hits, strikeout eight, no walks, but the two solo
Speaker 6: home runs enough damage against the Dodgers right hander as
Speaker 6: the Dodgers offense just couldn't get anything going except for
Speaker 6: the Kyle Tucker RBI single in the eighth as the
Speaker 6: Astros winning two to one.
Speaker 1: This is Kirston's corner with Kirston Watson.
Speaker 6: Hen Kerson now joins this line from Houston, brought to
Speaker 6: you by Cars for Kids. The easiest way to get
Speaker 6: rid of that old car. Donating today and your car
Speaker 6: can be picked up tomorrow. That easy donat now at
Speaker 6: Carsfrokids dot org.
Speaker 4: That's cars with a K.
Speaker 6: Well last night, after going seven innings, striking out eight,
Speaker 6: but getting tagged with the laws, show hey Otani, the
Speaker 6: hitter back in the lineup.
Speaker 9: Today, back in the lineup, and look, obviously he didn't
Speaker 9: hit yesterday, and the doctors have made it clear that
Speaker 9: they are trying to find ways to manage him early.
Speaker 9: They do believe that some of these offensive struggles he's
Speaker 9: been dealing with. Look, he's in his last five games,
Speaker 9: he is zero for seventeen, and so he obviously took
Speaker 9: VP when the team first got here, did some early work.
Speaker 9: So it's clear he's working through a few things at
Speaker 9: the plate. He even shared last night he believes that
Speaker 9: it's something that has to do with his posture.
Speaker 1: He believes that that's if.
Speaker 9: He can kind of get his upper half in a
Speaker 9: good spot, then he should be able to get.
Speaker 1: Back on track.
Speaker 9: And so he's actively working through that. But you know,
Speaker 9: with trying to manage what Dave Roberts has shared as
Speaker 9: could be early fatigue just with him getting back to
Speaker 9: his two way. He had brought up that, you know,
Speaker 9: everything's on the table. That's you know what we saw yesterday,
Speaker 9: having him not hit while he's pitching. That's potentially giving
Speaker 9: him the off day a day after he starts. Obviously,
Speaker 9: when you look at what the schedule is for this team,
Speaker 9: whether it's today moving forward, they have an early game today,
Speaker 9: there's a team off day tomorrow and then they have
Speaker 9: a three game series with the Braves. So the question was,
Speaker 9: you know, was it under consideration to have him not
Speaker 9: in the lineup, and he said, you know, there's off
Speaker 9: day tomorrow and obviously, you know show Hey, he's an
Speaker 9: MVP player. He is so talented and ultimately this team
Speaker 9: is better when he is in the lineup. So they
Speaker 9: are in a situation they do want to end not
Speaker 9: only the series with a win, but en this road
Speaker 9: trip with a high note in which they could go
Speaker 9: three and three if they could pick up the win today.
Speaker 9: So it's really just more of where's his lineup when
Speaker 9: it's at its best, and if they can have him
Speaker 9: out there, he feels good, he feels ready, and hopefully
Speaker 9: he can you know, set the tone and see some
Speaker 9: results from what he's been working looking on, because I
Speaker 9: know that would feel good for him as well.
Speaker 6: One positive is reinforcements are coming. In the case of
Speaker 6: Brock Stewart, he's there.
Speaker 9: Yeah, So Brock was activated this morning, so he is
Speaker 9: here and he's been here the last few days just
Speaker 9: kind of being around the clubhouse. But for Brock, he
Speaker 9: told us obviously when he came over at the trade
Speaker 9: deadline last year. He wanted to be that guy who
Speaker 9: could go in and be support. Obviously, the team brought
Speaker 9: him here for a reason. When he started feeling kind
Speaker 9: of some irritation inflemation and his shoulder, realized he needed surgery,
Speaker 9: immediately had it and now he feels like he's in
Speaker 9: a really good spot this year. And you know what,
Speaker 9: he's going to be the first of a few guys
Speaker 9: to be returning. So we've got two others who were
Speaker 9: actually three others I should say that are on their
Speaker 9: rehab assignments right now. Blake Snell only has one more outing,
Speaker 9: which is going to be this weekend, and then his
Speaker 9: next one we'll be back with the team. So then
Speaker 9: you've got Key k Hernandez he started his rehab assignment
Speaker 9: and Bruce Dark Graderle is on his rehab assignment. For
Speaker 9: Bruce ar he's still got a couple more weeks, say,
Speaker 9: with Kei k they want to get him built up
Speaker 9: into a position where you know, he can be playing
Speaker 9: full game things like that. But you've got other guys,
Speaker 9: whether it's Spooky Betts taking part in a live BP
Speaker 9: that's going to be on Thursday back at Dodger stadium.
Speaker 9: So guys are working their way back, and even Brock
Speaker 9: was telling me, you know, there's a lot of excitement
Speaker 9: and there's a lot of energy because there's so much
Speaker 9: talent that's not only already here, but so much talent
Speaker 9: that's on the way. And they have big goals for
Speaker 9: twenty twenty six, and so it's all starting to really
Speaker 9: come together for them.
Speaker 6: Well, hopefully the Dodgers can get together today and win
Speaker 6: this series in Houston.
Speaker 4: Kirston, we appreciate it.
Speaker 6: We'll check with you after the game is still they
Speaker 6: come here on Dodgers on Deck, we'll dive deeper into
Speaker 6: this pitching matchup. We'll check it with David vast Day.
Speaker 6: Of course, throughout the hour we'll hear from Charlie Steiner
Speaker 6: as well. But up next we'll hear from the manager,
Speaker 6: Dave Roberts. Leading up to Dodgers and Astros on this
Speaker 6: Wednesday first pitch at eleven ten. I'm Tim Kase's the
Speaker 6: back to back world champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck on your home
Speaker 1: for the Blue.
Speaker 6: All season logo Casino Dodgers on Decontinius on the Wednesday morning.
Speaker 6: Thanks for being with us as we leads up to
Speaker 6: Dodgers and Astros from Houston, Texas, Morongo Casino Resort and
Speaker 6: spat Grand Slam for good times. Tyler Glass now the
Speaker 6: big right hander on the mound for the Blue. Lance
Speaker 6: mccullors Junior. We'll go for the Astros. First pitch coming
Speaker 6: up at eleven ten.
Speaker 1: He's the LA Dodgers.
Speaker 6: Injury report presented by UCLA Healthy, official medical partner of
Speaker 6: the Los Angeles Dodgers. Finally some good news on the
Speaker 6: injury front. Brock Stewart activated off the IL. He'll be
Speaker 6: in the Dodgers' bullpen and available. Could come out and
Speaker 6: help out. Dave Roberts today. Bruce Dargraderolt trending in the
Speaker 6: right direction. He's in Triple A on a minor league rehabit.
Speaker 6: Sigmon Key k Hernandez was in Oklahoma City last night
Speaker 6: with the Triple A team getting some action. Finally some
Speaker 6: baseball activities. Mookie Betts training in the right direction. As
Speaker 6: you heard from Kirston Edwin Diaz recovering from elbow surgery.
Speaker 6: Tommy Edmund a little bit longer than expected as a
Speaker 6: recovery coming back from that off season ankle surgery. Let's
Speaker 6: head back out to Houston and get the pregame thought
Speaker 6: to the Dodger skipper.
Speaker 8: Questions for Dave, Dave, can you just describe Dave? Can
Speaker 8: you talk about the pressure in.
Speaker 1: The dugouts with Dave Roberts.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think obviously it starts with Tyler to go
Speaker 10: out there and do what he's been doing. Us to
Speaker 10: play good defense behind him, and I think it's, uh,
Speaker 10: we'll shoot me. I think it's more of like with
Speaker 10: the offensive side, it's you know, mccollor's is heavy spin. Uh,
Speaker 10: you know, the curveball is his pitch. He's a guy
Speaker 10: that can strike it, shortened it, and it's imperative for
Speaker 10: us to stay in.
Speaker 8: The hitting zone.
Speaker 10: He's a guy that doesn't give in, and uh, it's
Speaker 10: gonna be a little bit of a challenge, but I
Speaker 10: think that we just gotta for me, it's just kind
Speaker 10: of get the ball up and wait for some mistakes.
Speaker 10: But veteran pitcher, we've seen him a lot of guys
Speaker 10: that these guys have seen them, so we just got
Speaker 10: to have good at bats against him.
Speaker 6: Yes, all right, there's the man Dave Roberts talking about
Speaker 6: Lance mcauller's junior who they're facing today and the Dodgers
Speaker 6: offense needing to string together batter at bats today in
Speaker 6: this series finale. Well, we continue here on Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 6: We check in with the David Vans as we lead
Speaker 6: you up to first pitch from Houston Dodgers and Astros.
Speaker 4: I'm Tim Kates'. Is the back to back World Series
Speaker 4: champion Dodgers Audio Nework.
Speaker 1: As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino Dodgers on
Speaker 1: Deck on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: It's the Dodgers and the Astros on this Wednesday, final
Speaker 6: game in this three games, head final game of this
Speaker 6: road trip for the Dodgers head home this weekend Tyler
Speaker 6: Glass down the Mountain. Dodgers Baseball is brought to by Alpoto,
Speaker 6: born in LA and made for your game day. Al
Speaker 6: Poto brings authentic Mexican styles, tomato sauces, sauces and hot sauces.
Speaker 4: Right to your plate, El Poto Gourmet and the.
Speaker 1: Can joining Tim Cake Son Dodgers on Tech.
Speaker 5: I accept everybody for who they are.
Speaker 1: This is Dodger insider David Basse.
Speaker 4: All right, DV here we are final game of this
Speaker 4: three game set.
Speaker 6: How badly do you think the Dodgers need Mooky Betts
Speaker 6: back right now?
Speaker 4: Maybe just for the offense. I guess right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know it's interesting, Tim, nobody has brought up
Speaker 5: Mooky Bets, and I think we've all forgotten how good
Speaker 5: Mooki Bets can be when he is the guy that
Speaker 5: we have seen be one of the best leadoff hitters
Speaker 5: in the game of baseball. I know last year was
Speaker 5: an anomaly, he was not Mooky Betts, but the year
Speaker 5: before he was on his way to winning the MVP
Speaker 5: before a pitch broke his hand. And the Dodgers' right
Speaker 5: handed hitters Tim have been struggling mightily against left handed pitching.
Speaker 5: And we're talking about guys named Taoskar, Hernandez and Will
Speaker 5: Smith who traditionally have murdered left handed pitching. Taoscar last year,
Speaker 5: for some reason, was not goodgainst left handed pitching, and
Speaker 5: that's the original reason why the Dodgers signed him before
Speaker 5: the twenty fourth season, when he mashed against left handed pitching.
Speaker 5: But if you look at right handers, Dodger right handers
Speaker 5: this year against left handed pitching, they have a seven
Speaker 5: to forty ops and have only hit two home runs,
Speaker 5: and that's come from Andy Pajez and Miguel Rojas. The
Speaker 5: Dodgers need Mookie Betts back, if not just for that
Speaker 5: threat against left handed pitching. And by the way, Mooki
Speaker 5: wasn't that great against lefties last year either, and that's
Speaker 5: part of the reason why the Dodgers don't really care
Speaker 5: if it's Kyle Tucker or Freddie Freeman hitting behind Otani.
Speaker 5: But Freeman and Tucker have been awful against left handed
Speaker 5: pitching this year. Tucker's hitting two thirty three, Freeman's hitting
Speaker 5: two twenty two. So that's a big issue, not just
Speaker 5: against starting pitching. But like last night, the Astros deployed
Speaker 5: a guy by the name of Brian King out of
Speaker 5: their bull pen and he pitched two scoreless innings to
Speaker 5: end the game. He got six outs a left handed reliever,
Speaker 5: a fellow by the name of Brian King.
Speaker 6: David is brought to by the Ford Maverick Motor Trends
Speaker 6: in North American Truck of the Year. The Ford Maverick
Speaker 6: everything you need in the most innovative truck with forty
Speaker 6: two miles per gallon at the best MSRP if it's category,
Speaker 6: it's time to see Ford in a new light. Go
Speaker 6: to your Southern California four Dealers today last night show,
Speaker 6: Hey Otani seven Indians, eight strikeouts. He was pretty good
Speaker 6: on the mound. Now he's back in the lineup today, David,
Speaker 6: Is there any way they can ease the load on him?
Speaker 5: There is a way, but they would have to change
Speaker 5: the days that he pitches. Hear me out. Here's my theory.
Speaker 5: Otani's start day should be Sundays. And consider this. The
Speaker 5: Dodgers are the premier franchise in the sport, so they
Speaker 5: would have a lot of evening games, but a lot
Speaker 5: of them would be during the day. So if he
Speaker 5: starts on Sundays, give him Monday off. And Monday sometimes
Speaker 5: are travel day, but give him Monday off as a hitter,
Speaker 5: and he wouldn't have to throw his bullpen until Wednesday.
Speaker 5: So that basically gives him two and a half days
Speaker 5: of recovery time. So if there is a way for
Speaker 5: the Dodgers to reset today that he pitches from Wednesday
Speaker 5: to Sunday, I personally believe it would make things a
Speaker 5: little bit more streamlined for him to get the rest
Speaker 5: and recovery that he needs to be the dh that
Speaker 5: we know he can be.
Speaker 6: Just had the injury report a couple of minutes ago.
Speaker 6: There's a lot of Dodger arms on the injured list.
Speaker 6: Brock Stewart comes back today. But overall, with all these
Speaker 6: injuries considered, David, this Dodgers bullpen's been pretty good.
Speaker 5: And especially the injury to the most important reliever in
Speaker 5: Edwin Diaz, who's not coming back until the second half
Speaker 5: of the season. Guys like Tanner, Scott, Will kleinb Alex
Speaker 5: Vesia of course, have all been stall warts in that
Speaker 5: Dodger bullpen, and now Kyle Hurt has emerged as a
Speaker 5: guy that the Dodgers may give more high leverage opportun
Speaker 5: tunities too. So the pitching has been outstanding from the
Speaker 5: starters to the bullpen. Now the offense, with all stars
Speaker 5: up and down this lineup, have got to find a
Speaker 5: way to be more decisive and score some runs.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I need to get this offense going, all right, David,
Speaker 6: great stuff. I'll check back you with you in just
Speaker 6: a little bit. Dodgers Baseball is brought to by Santa

Speaker 2: Was an easy thing to say, but you hadn't go
Speaker 2: out and do it well that call on Friday in
Speaker 2: the meeting. I believe that we were going to beat
Speaker 2: them more than I believed anything in my life.
Speaker 9: But I said, all I want you guys to go
Speaker 9: is believe the same thing they did.
Speaker 3: They did a great job.
Speaker 8: And what a vicory.
Speaker 4: I don't want to thank God for giving all of
Speaker 4: us for wonderful opportunity.
Speaker 8: It was really great.
Speaker 6: The great Tommy Lesordo with Tony Kubeck. There After, the
Speaker 6: Dodgers comeback in the NLDS in nineteen eighty one to
Speaker 6: defeat the Astros in five games. This Hafey magical moment
Speaker 6: brought to by Hofey hot Dogs, Hoffey so Cow's local
Speaker 6: treasure for nearly one hundred years.
Speaker 4: Hafey hot Dogs, local and so great. So when we.
Speaker 6: Continue here on Dodgers on Deck, we'll check in with
Speaker 6: Charlie Steiner as we leads up to first pitch, Dodgers
Speaker 6: and Astros, final game of this series, final game of
Speaker 6: this road trip. I'm Tim kateson the back to back
Speaker 6: World Series champion Dodgers audio.
Speaker 1: Nowhere, this is Morongo Casino Dodgers Hunting Game on your
Speaker 1: home for La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: Lenia to Dodgers and Astros from Houston on this Wednesday morning.
Speaker 4: Thanks for being with us, Tyler Glass. Now Lance McCullers Junior.
Speaker 6: The pitching matchup, first pitch of Houston's coming up at
Speaker 6: eleven ten time. Now for the Verzon startup, as we
Speaker 6: are thirty five minutes away from the start of the game. Now, Verizon,
Speaker 6: you can lock in your low price for three years
Speaker 6: so you can save big. Visit the Verizon store today.
Speaker 6: We say hello to Charlie Steiner.
Speaker 3: All right, Tim, it's getaway day for the Dodgers. They
Speaker 3: have split the first two, with the Astros losing last
Speaker 3: night two to one, Dodgers twenty two and fourteen, first
Speaker 3: place in the West to half a game in front
Speaker 3: of the Padres, who are in San Francisco this afternoon.
Speaker 3: Astros fifteen and twenty two, fourth place, four behind the
Speaker 3: Athletics in the American League West, one game over the
Speaker 3: last place Angels in the Western Division. Interesting pitching matchup today.
Speaker 3: Glass Now and mccullor's but Mo, the story seems to
Speaker 3: be Otani. Whatever he does, he's right in the mi
Speaker 3: He was terrific last night on the hill, finally gave
Speaker 3: up his first two home runs of the year. That
Speaker 3: would be the game difference. He's not hitting very much,
Speaker 3: neither are the Dodgers. He seems to be the bell
Speaker 3: weather for this team, one way.
Speaker 8: Or the other.
Speaker 7: I think there's any question about that, and they deserved
Speaker 7: better than be tagged with the loss last night with
Speaker 7: very little run support. That's kind of the theme song.
Speaker 7: Unfortunately on this road trip, including last night, opportunities to
Speaker 7: score another double play ball the Dodgers, said Charlie. In
Speaker 7: the last five games all on this road trip have
Speaker 7: hit into eleven double plays. You talk about exiting innings,
Speaker 7: that's exactly what they have been doing. And last night
Speaker 7: they had eight opportunities with runners in scoring position. The
Speaker 7: Astros who won the game had exactly one at bat
Speaker 7: during the entire game with a runner in scoring position.
Speaker 7: The hitting has been hit and miss, mostly miss on
Speaker 7: that end of it. And for Otani, you can look
Speaker 7: at his record, Yes, the era is below one, but
Speaker 7: he should actually if you're looking at how well he
Speaker 7: has pitched, is a chance to be four and one
Speaker 7: on the record. It's not that way. It's now two
Speaker 7: and two.
Speaker 3: He ain't getting no support no how. Since July thirtieth
Speaker 3: of last season, Otani is three and three in a
Speaker 3: two point one three er in fourteen starts. And in
Speaker 3: those fourteen starts he's three and three. The Dodgers are
Speaker 3: three and eleven. So he's not getting any offensive support.
Speaker 3: But he is pitching great and continues to pitch great.
Speaker 3: All he needs is a little help from his friend.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and I think if you look at last night too,
Speaker 7: you know he goes seven innings and he threw only
Speaker 7: eighty nine pitches. Here's a couple of numbers that I
Speaker 7: ran across yesterday morning getting ready for the ballgame. You know,
Speaker 7: when he's been ahead in the count this year, coming
Speaker 7: into last night's game is just a one to oh
Speaker 7: two batting average against. When he's had two strikes on
Speaker 7: hitters coming into last night's game, just four hits in
Speaker 7: sixty eight batch. That's an sixty seven average. What he
Speaker 7: does on the mound is is absolutely off the charts
Speaker 7: because now you turn around the next day, now he's
Speaker 7: leading off and hopefully he can get the bat going.
Speaker 7: Because Otani as a hitter now is in an zero
Speaker 7: for seventeen streak. But every time he comes to home plate,
Speaker 7: people don't dare leave their seats because they're likely to
Speaker 7: see something they've never seen before.
Speaker 3: You know, O'tani when he has hit and pitched in
Speaker 3: the same game only one out of ten, which is
Speaker 3: another reason why he did not hit last night. Otani's
Speaker 3: offensive numbers are down in every category this year, especially
Speaker 3: the power numbers. So far this year, he's hitting two
Speaker 3: forty this time last year to ninety six year before that,
Speaker 3: twenty twenty four. Thirty three games into the season, he's
Speaker 3: hitting three sixty four. So his offensive numbers are down,
Speaker 3: and you and I were talking just before he went
Speaker 3: on the air. I wonder if the absence of Mookie
Speaker 3: Betts behind him in the lineup to what extent that
Speaker 3: is impacting on him at the play.
Speaker 7: I think it's an excellent point because the doctors have
Speaker 7: not really found that number two guy behind Otani. Freddie
Speaker 7: Freeman's in there again today as the number two hitter.
Speaker 7: In fact, it'll be Otani, Freeman and then ti Oscar
Speaker 7: Hernanez the first three at the top of the lineup.
Speaker 7: It's been the bottom part of the lineup that has
Speaker 7: really been kind of setting the table for the top
Speaker 7: of the lineup, and the lineup that follows the runners
Speaker 7: on base has not been producing on a constant basis.
Speaker 7: And yet in spite of all that we talked about,
Speaker 7: well they're not hitting, they're not doing this, they're still
Speaker 7: in first place in Ashley Western Division, and we are
Speaker 7: approaching now we've just gone over twenty percent of the
Speaker 7: season has already been played. So this is a ball
Speaker 7: club I think can even get better than what it
Speaker 7: is at the present time.
Speaker 3: Right now, Charlie so Otani is back in the lineup
Speaker 3: again today and it's going to be a glass now
Speaker 3: going Otani, of course, has been great. Glass now has
Speaker 3: been equally great. Three and zero two fifty six er
Speaker 3: and his next strikeout will be his one thousandth in
Speaker 3: his career. Going against Lance McCullers, and the Astros have
Speaker 3: been hemorrhaging and they lost another key piece in their lineup.
Speaker 3: Carlos Correa is out for the season. He's going to
Speaker 3: have surgery on his ankle, and so they've gone from
Speaker 3: bad to worst and they're in trouble at this point
Speaker 3: in the season, they're fifteen to twenty two. So the Dodgers,
Speaker 3: you would hope, will be able to win the rubber
Speaker 3: game of this three game series. Getaway Day off day tomorrow.
Speaker 3: Lineups in first pitch coming up, Tim.
Speaker 4: All right, thank you, Charlie.
Speaker 6: Dodgers Baseball presented by Unicloe Field at Dodgers Stadium, uniclode

Speaker 6: to this pitching match up with Tyler Glastow going up
Speaker 6: against Lance McCullers Junior, Tim and Rick.
Speaker 4: We have the keys to the game.
Speaker 6: But up next we go high and tight with Dodger
Speaker 6: catcher Will Smith. It's the Dodgers and Astros, final game
Speaker 6: of this three game set, final game of the six

Speaker 6: AND's the Dodgers in Houston as they take on the
Speaker 6: Astros on this Wednesday morning. Tyler Glass now on the mound.
Speaker 6: First pitch coming up at eleven ten. Times Baseball is
Speaker 6: brought to you by Shaky's Pizza Parlor. We're getting closer
Speaker 6: to lunchtime. The official pizza partner of the Dodgers audio
Speaker 6: broadcast is Shaky's. When it's game day, it's groove day
Speaker 6: at Shaky's dot Com.
Speaker 1: And now what will likely be vast a fielding insults
Speaker 1: from a Dodger player.
Speaker 4: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 1: This is high and tight, all right.
Speaker 5: Coming up tomorrow, Will Smith is going to have his
Speaker 5: Netflix comedy show. If you want tickets, go to his
Speaker 5: Instagram page. But we had a chance to catch up
Speaker 5: with the Dodger catcher who was not in the mood
Speaker 5: for any laughs.
Speaker 8: Yeah, of course, nice and earlier this morning.
Speaker 5: When you look at the beginning of this season, for you,
Speaker 5: you did go play in the World Baseball Classic. There's
Speaker 5: a lot of guys that played in that tournament that
Speaker 5: didn't get a lot of at bats. Seems like you're
Speaker 5: starting to get a rhythm at the plate. Did not
Speaker 5: getting as many at bats during that tournament. Do you
Speaker 5: think it affected some guys.
Speaker 8: I'm sure it could have affected some guys.
Speaker 11: I know some guys were talking about that, you know,
Speaker 11: not not worried about it, but making sure they got
Speaker 11: a bats once they got back to spring training after it.
Speaker 11: For me, I feel like I've got plenty of bats.
Speaker 11: I was ready to go. Yeah, I know, haven't been great,
Speaker 11: say it Rolf not being bad, but just kind of surviving.
Speaker 8: Just one of those months for me.
Speaker 11: I mean, that's more to some mechanical stuff swing wise,
Speaker 11: just cleaning some things up as opposed to timing or
Speaker 11: anything like that.
Speaker 8: But that's that's our job. Continue to work.
Speaker 5: And you know on Hitzel Com the Dodgers have preached
Speaker 5: having this overarching big picture while also trying to win
Speaker 5: each and every day at this stage of your career.
Speaker 8: It's hard to believe.
Speaker 5: That you broke in in twenty nineteen, But how do
Speaker 5: you manage at this stage of your career trying to
Speaker 5: be ready every day but also understanding it's about October two?
Speaker 8: For me?
Speaker 11: I let the you know, doc handle that big picture stuff.
Speaker 11: When he approaches me, it comes up. I usually have
Speaker 11: to agree with them, just because you know he's thinking
Speaker 11: about everything. But now I'm going one day at a time.
Speaker 11: I want to be in there every day. I want
Speaker 11: to try to win every game. That's our job, and
Speaker 11: kind of let them handle that part.
Speaker 8: Have you.
Speaker 5: I know you're a guy that once the season was over,
Speaker 5: you didn't take any victory labs.
Speaker 8: That's just who you are.
Speaker 5: But I don't feel like people appreciate the fact that
Speaker 5: you caught every single inning of the World Series, including
Speaker 5: eighteen innings. How long did it take you during the
Speaker 5: off season to recover through all that?
Speaker 11: A while, I was pretty sore for a good month
Speaker 11: or so, you know, starting to work out or definitely
Speaker 11: didn't have my legs under me. But this is part
Speaker 11: of it, It's part of It's all worth it. I
Speaker 11: celebrate a little bit. That wasn't not taking laughs, but
Speaker 11: I had a good time.
Speaker 5: Did you just keep it tight circle with the Smith family?
Speaker 11: No, I was saying out the guys, I just don't
Speaker 11: plaster all over social media.
Speaker 8: I just keep it to myself.
Speaker 5: Nobody's asked you this. So you hit the go ahead,
Speaker 5: eventual winning home run in Game seven last year. What
Speaker 5: did you keep from that moment? Do you have the baseball?
Speaker 5: Do you have the bat that you hit the home
Speaker 5: run with?
Speaker 11: I wish, honestly, don't know where the bat went. I'm
Speaker 11: sure it got authenticated, but I don't remember which one
Speaker 11: it was or anything like that. But no, I just
Speaker 11: got just the memories, that's all I've got.
Speaker 5: Yeah, pretty good memories for Will Smith and the Dodgers.
Speaker 5: Here's something else that I wonder if you ever have
Speaker 5: a chance to sit back and reflect on the fact
Speaker 5: that you're catching one of, if not the greatest player
Speaker 5: in the history of the game, like last night in Otani.
Speaker 5: What's it like catching him now since he's back to
Speaker 5: being a full time pitcher.
Speaker 11: Yeah, it's fun. Obviously, he's the best player ever. You know,
Speaker 11: he's super talented, goes out there every day, competes, gives
Speaker 11: it everything he's got. You just got a good feel
Speaker 11: for the game, you know, last night we had a
Speaker 11: good feel what they're trying to do or just counterating it,
Speaker 11: and he's out there just executing.
Speaker 8: But uh, you know, we get along great. But it's
Speaker 8: fun to work with.
Speaker 5: Has he ever opened your eyes to something now that
Speaker 5: he's pitching to maybe point out some of the nuances
Speaker 5: of attacking hitters or the game itself. As far as
Speaker 5: the dialogue you have with each other, yeah, all the time.
Speaker 8: I think all the pictures do that. You know.
Speaker 11: If I see something, I tell them, If they see something,
Speaker 11: they tell me, and it's just a conversation. You know,
Speaker 11: what we're seeing, how they're trying to attack us, or
Speaker 11: the patient or the aggressive or where they're looking, you know,
Speaker 11: whatever they're.
Speaker 8: Trying to do.
Speaker 11: Are they had a team approach or not a team approach?
Speaker 8: You know.
Speaker 11: So sometimes I'm wrong, sometimes the picture's wrong. Sometimes they're
Speaker 11: both right or both wrong, and then that's when Mark's
Speaker 11: got to step in or something. But no, I think
Speaker 11: I think it's just a conversation. It's good. We trust
Speaker 11: each other. I think all the pictures pretty much trust me.
Speaker 11: So it's been good.
Speaker 5: Before I let you go the ABS system. We're a
Speaker 5: month in. I know we've talked about the strategy of
Speaker 5: the team. They're trying to leave as many challenges for
Speaker 5: you to be able to have in your back pocket.
Speaker 5: Is the overarching strategy to use as many as you can,
Speaker 5: similar to the way you guys implemented your strategy for
Speaker 5: the instant replay challenges.
Speaker 8: Uh, no, it's not used as many as you can.
Speaker 11: I think it's you know, I know the situation, No,
Speaker 11: the count, you know, kind of where we're at in
Speaker 11: the game when anywhere at was to score, you know,
Speaker 11: I think offensively, we've we've talked about trying to be
Speaker 11: a little more aggressive with it, firing a few more
Speaker 11: bullets at times instead of just leaving it to you know,
Speaker 11: Dalton and I. So let's just reading the game. You know,
Speaker 11: if you're right, If you know you're right, call it.
Speaker 11: But other than that, I kind of know.
Speaker 8: The situation, but also don't be afraid to fire a bullet.
Speaker 5: Have you noticed some homeplate umpires embrace it more than
Speaker 5: the others?
Speaker 8: Uh?
Speaker 11: Just to know, I think overall they've been really good. Actually,
Speaker 11: I think it kind of holds an accountable, you know,
Speaker 11: pitch to pitch, they got to be really locked in
Speaker 11: or else they're gonna get kind of embarrassed. They don't
Speaker 11: want to be embarrassed, you know, they're They're all trying
Speaker 11: to do a really good job, and I think it
Speaker 11: just helps, you know.
Speaker 8: Help them.
Speaker 5: Thanks for the time, Will appreciate it.
Speaker 8: Thanks all right, Tim.
Speaker 5: There is Will Smith, and like I said, tickets are
Speaker 5: still available for his comedy show which is happening tomorrow
Speaker 5: night in Beverly Hills.

Speaker 6: Tomorrow Night's gonna be a fun night out there with
Speaker 6: a lot of great money being raised.
Speaker 4: As we lead you up to first pitch.
Speaker 6: Dodgers and Astros up next, we'll dive deeper in to
Speaker 6: this pitching matchup.
Speaker 4: Don't you go anywhere. I'm Tim Kates. Is the back
Speaker 4: to back World Series Champion Dodgers Audio Nowhere.
Speaker 1: As we were saying yes, is Marongo Casino Dodgers on
Speaker 1: Jack on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: Kiss the Dodgers and the Astros. First Bencham Houston's coming

Speaker 1: And now before the Dodgers hit the din neck, we
Speaker 1: look at the pitching.
Speaker 4: Matchups brought to you by your Toyota dealers. We make
Speaker 4: it easy.
Speaker 6: Lancemoccullers Junior on the mound of for the Astros, thirty
Speaker 6: two year old right hander, twelve season, the big league's
Speaker 6: finally healthy, missed two years because of arm injuries. He's
Speaker 6: two and two of the six thirty two Era. Throws
Speaker 6: the cutter, the sinker, the sweeper, the knuckle kerby throws
Speaker 6: it all at you. Making his six start this season
Speaker 6: last time out, six innings, three runs, two hits, nine
Speaker 6: strikeouts in a win over the Orioles. Dodger fans may
Speaker 6: remember him from the twenty seventeen World Series, in which
Speaker 6: the Astros cheated their way to a title. He pitched
Speaker 6: Game seven against the Dodgers, and he's actually had a
Speaker 6: pretty successful career against the Blue.
Speaker 4: Two and zero with a one fourteen RARA, two to.
Speaker 6: Seventeen opponent's batting average, and four career regular season starts,
Speaker 6: including three quality wins Dodgers on last year at Dodger
Speaker 6: Stadium on July fifth, he went six innings at one
Speaker 6: run on four hits while striking out of four. Tyler
Speaker 6: Glass now on the mound he's been really good for
Speaker 6: the Dodgers. Thirty two year old right henders three to
Speaker 6: zero with the two to fifty six ERA, his third
Speaker 6: season with the Dodgers, making his seventh start, his ERA
Speaker 6: top ten in the National League, his whip best in
Speaker 6: the major leagues.
Speaker 4: We're currently right now.
Speaker 6: Last time out, five and two third innings, two runs,
Speaker 6: three hits, nine strikeouts, but got a no decision against
Speaker 6: the Marlins. This is his second career start against the Astros.
Speaker 6: The only time he faced him. Well, he went five innings,
Speaker 6: he allowed one run, six hits, struck out four, and
Speaker 6: got the win. Hope you're listening early. Tyler Glass now
Speaker 6: nine hundred and ninety nine career strikeouts. Yes, he is
Speaker 6: one strikeout away from one thousand in his career. Tyler
Speaker 6: Glass now Lance McCullers Junior. It's the Dodgers and Astros
Speaker 6: were fifteen minutes away from first pitch.
Speaker 4: Keys to the game are next.
Speaker 6: I'm Tim Kass, the back to back World Series champion
Speaker 6: Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Tap on your home
Speaker 1: for all season long.
Speaker 6: Leading up to Dodgers and Astros on this Wednesday morning
Speaker 6: final game of this three game set as the Dodgers
Speaker 6: look to get the series win. Tyler Glass now Lance
Speaker 6: mccullo's junior the pitching matchup. As we get you ready
Speaker 6: for the start of the game with the Sepporos. Start
Speaker 6: great moments. Start with Sapporo beer. Yeah, whatever your taste
Speaker 6: preference to. Poro has you covered with a variety of
Speaker 6: crisp and refreshing loggers, including light and non alcoholic beers. Sopporo,
Speaker 6: good with sushi, great with baseball. It's head back out
Speaker 6: to the booth one final time before first pitch. Tim
Speaker 6: never Rick Monday.
Speaker 2: Guys, Tim, thanks again very much, as we get you
Speaker 2: ready for this one Here in Houston. The roof has closed.
Speaker 2: These skys outside a little bit threatening and they are
Speaker 2: expecting some rainstorms a little bit later today, but we'll
Speaker 2: be dry and comfortable indoors for the third straight day
Speaker 2: here in Houston, Texas. Tyler glasnow gets the start. He's
Speaker 2: three and oh. He'll make his first regular season start
Speaker 2: here in Houston. He has pitched three games here in
Speaker 2: the post season, but he'll get the start this afternoon.
Speaker 2: Three and zero his record. All three wins for Tyler
Speaker 2: glassnow have come on the road.
Speaker 7: Well, the last outing, which was a week ago today
Speaker 7: it was against the Marlows at Dodger Stadium, is the
Speaker 7: first time he did not go at least six innings.
Speaker 7: And the numbers for Glass now are rather impressive. When
Speaker 7: you look at the batting average against the last two years,
Speaker 7: it's the lowest of any starting pitcher that qualifies one
Speaker 7: sixty eight average. And now we're seeing the breaking ball
Speaker 7: between the curve boll and the slider. The last two
Speaker 7: years just a one twenty six average against something with
Speaker 7: a lot of movements. So for glass now also searching
Speaker 7: for a career strikeout number one thousand as he takes
Speaker 7: the mound today for the Dodgers.
Speaker 2: Shouldn't take him very long to get that. Interesting About
Speaker 2: his batting average against this year, his splits are identical.
Speaker 2: Right handed hitters are seven for forty eight. They're hitting
Speaker 2: one forty six against him. Lefties are twelve for eighty two.
Speaker 2: They're hitting one forty six against him.
Speaker 7: Yeah, let me do the math for you. That's a
Speaker 7: one forty six batting average against for this it's really good.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, that was an easy one.
Speaker 2: For Lance mccullor's junior, the veteran will get the start
Speaker 2: for the Astros. He has a six to zero record
Speaker 2: against the Dodgers in his career, including in games even
Speaker 2: of the twenty seventeen World Series.
Speaker 7: He got the victory there And for the Dodgers couldn't
Speaker 7: hit the fast ball last night consistently today, they're gonna
Speaker 7: have to hit the off speed pitch because mccullors will
Speaker 7: throw off speed pitches a lot. The last two years,
Speaker 7: almost sixty percent of his pitches have been non fastballs.
Speaker 2: The Astros have the worst team of era in Major
Speaker 2: League Baseball at five sixty five. They've walked the most
Speaker 2: hitters one hundred and ninety six, they've hit the most
Speaker 2: batters twenty four, and mccullor's VRA six thirty two the
Speaker 2: fifth worst in the American League. Dodgers need to take
Speaker 2: advantage Tyler glasnow against Lance mccullor's junior in the rubber
Speaker 2: game of this three game set ten.
Speaker 6: All right, first pitch, will we come back? Nothing like
Speaker 6: a happy flight back for the Dodgers to la day
Speaker 6: off tomorrow. But take care of business first. Get to
Speaker 6: win and win this series in Houston. Don't forgetting this
Speaker 6: game is over. David Vassie's got your cover with all
Speaker 6: the postgame highlights reaction, of course Dodger talk as well.
Speaker 4: First pitch though, is next, Lance.
Speaker 6: McCullers, Junior Tyler glassnow Dodgers as Jos enjoyed everybody. I'm
Speaker 6: Tim Kates. This is the back to back World Series
