Speaker 6: sweep of the Angels, and they got exactly that. Roki
Speaker 6: Sasaki his best start with the Dodgers. Seven innings, one run,
Speaker 6: four hits, eight strikeouts, did not walk a batter. He
Speaker 6: threw ninety one pitches, a career high in strikeouts, his

Speaker 8: O'tani barely got out of the way as he's leading

Speaker 6: games set. As the Dodgers, now twenty nine and eighteen overall,
Speaker 6: head to San Diego, where they go into action tonight.
Speaker 6: One game, make that a half game up on San
Speaker 6: Diego in the NL West. Great pitching match up with
Speaker 6: Yoshinobu Yamamoto going.
Speaker 4: For the Dodgers.
Speaker 6: First pitch is six forty. With more we head out
Speaker 6: to the galpin Ford broadcast. But with this we say
Speaker 6: hello to Steven Nelson and Rick Monday guys.
Speaker 4: Thanks so much, Tim.
Speaker 9: It is a gorgeous Monday evening here in San Diego
Speaker 9: Petco Park. The Dodgers and Padres for the very first
Speaker 9: time in twenty twenty six, just a half game separating
Speaker 9: these two teams in the National League West standings. Both
Speaker 9: teams on winning streaks, the Dodgers with five in a
Speaker 9: row after sweeping and dominating the Halos. The Padres just
Speaker 9: swept the Mariners in Seattle. So all that the same
Speaker 9: mod this should be another terrific showdown.
Speaker 8: I agree, and quite frankly, I think we're putting in
Speaker 8: perspective other than the series against the Atlanta Brays, this
Speaker 8: is probably the most difficult matchup as far as team
Speaker 8: wise the Dodgers have seen this year some other teams
Speaker 8: that they played. Not to say that they're not good teams,
Speaker 8: but they were not playing well at that particular time
Speaker 8: San Diego comes in. As you mentioned, they swept Seattle
Speaker 8: for the Dodgers had a very easy time against the
Speaker 8: Angels in Anaheim, so this is not going to be
Speaker 8: an easy trip from this point on. And then Milwaukee too,
Speaker 8: and Milwaukee is the ball club that kind of rises
Speaker 8: to the occasion. But for this Dodger ball club, I mean,
Speaker 8: they were so dominant in all kinds of areas. They
Speaker 8: hit very well in the last not just the last
Speaker 8: three games, really the last five games. They've hit well,
Speaker 8: they have pitched well. And the other thing that gets overlooked,
Speaker 8: but it's so important. The defense has been spectacular.
Speaker 9: To use a word that you just throw out their
Speaker 9: overlook the fact that the Dodgers did not overlook a
Speaker 9: last place team in the Angels and took care of
Speaker 9: business in a series on paper they were supposed to
Speaker 9: do just that.
Speaker 4: I think that's the.
Speaker 9: Sign of an experienced team, a veteran team, and a
Speaker 9: focus team.
Speaker 8: And focus because you're not okay, fine, so many times
Speaker 8: to say, well, a team will play up to its
Speaker 8: competition if they're not really really playing too well, well,
Speaker 8: then there's the also the other side, root team will
Speaker 8: play down to the competition. And then there's the third part,
Speaker 8: and that's looking ahead to the next series. The Dodgers
Speaker 8: did not look ahead to the next series. They took
Speaker 8: care of business when they had opportunities, not only getting
Speaker 8: runners on base in the first thing. Said, well, yeah, fine,
Speaker 8: but the Dogs had a lot of walks issued to
Speaker 8: them in that series. But some of those walks that
Speaker 8: were issued is because the Doctors were very selective in
Speaker 8: pitches that they were offering. At swinging to.
Speaker 9: Thirty one to three, they outscore the Angels in terms
Speaker 9: of run differential. One of the more dominant three game
Speaker 9: series we have seen. The Dodgers have on twenty nine hits,
Speaker 9: they scored at least six runs in all three games.
Speaker 9: That being said, this series is going to be different
Speaker 9: because the Padres can pitch.
Speaker 4: They can pitch the lights out.
Speaker 9: The fact that they are just a half game back
Speaker 9: of the Dodgers with really nothing from Fernando Tatties Junior,
Speaker 9: nothing from Manny Machado, and nothing from Jackson Merrill is
Speaker 9: remarkable because and how's that happening, you might be asking.
Speaker 9: That's because if they have the lead in the sixth
Speaker 9: or seventh inning, more often than not, it's.
Speaker 8: Game over, and it depends on who they're going to
Speaker 8: in the different bullpens. Because we look at the eras,
Speaker 8: the Dodgers have the second lowest ERA and for the
Speaker 8: Padres they're in the middle of the pack that's number sixteen.
Speaker 8: But they rise to the occasion when they have the
Speaker 8: opportunities to close games out.
Speaker 9: Terrific starting pitching matchup as well. Yoshinobu Yamamoto against Michael King,
Speaker 9: two guys who can empathize with a lack of run support.
Speaker 9: We'll see who gets more in this series opener for
Speaker 9: the Dodgers than Padres. Will send it back to.
Speaker 6: You, Tim, all right, thanks a lot and Elliot, So
Speaker 6: we cut you down to first pitch. Dodger fans, get

Speaker 7: Basic.

Speaker 7: Runs batted in.
Speaker 2: It's four nothing Dodgers, but two two pitch to Otani
Speaker 2: and he swings and lanes. It's a left a base
Speaker 2: hic opposite field single for Show Hey Otani. He has
Speaker 2: three hits this afternoon.
Speaker 6: Show Hey Otani, three hits, including the two run single
Speaker 6: to start a five run fourth Indian for the Dodgers.
Speaker 6: RBIs number twenty three and twenty four as Show Hey Otani.
Speaker 6: After a couple of days off, including one to pitch
Speaker 6: only and then a full night off against the Giants,
Speaker 6: starting to heat up since coming back in the designated
Speaker 6: hitter role as the Dodgers beat up on the Angels
Speaker 6: yesterday ten to one.
Speaker 1: This is Kirston's Corner with Kirston Watson.
Speaker 6: Hey Kirson al joins us from Petco Park as we
Speaker 6: get ready for the starts of this big three game
Speaker 6: series brought to you by Cars for Kids Dot Org.
Speaker 6: All right, Kirson, Big series, Dodgers and Padres a half
Speaker 6: game between them in the standings and both teams coming
Speaker 6: into this series at Petcock Park on a little bit
Speaker 6: of a roll.
Speaker 4: They are.
Speaker 10: The Dodgers are on a five game win streak. The
Speaker 10: Padres are coming into this one and you know they
Speaker 10: had a big series against the Mariners, they're able to
Speaker 10: beat up on them. So you've got two teams that
Speaker 10: it seems like this is going to be a division
Speaker 10: battle when it comes to the NL West. As you mentioned,
Speaker 10: right now, the Padres are only a half game back.
Speaker 10: But you know, when I was talking to some of
Speaker 10: the guys today just as to how they feel coming
Speaker 10: into this one one, there's the positive just mindset of
Speaker 10: energy of their coming into this one. As I mentioned
Speaker 10: on a five game win streak, but they're coming into
Speaker 10: this one and they feel like they're clicking on all
Speaker 10: cylinders right now. The pitching has been excellent as of late. Yes,
Speaker 10: the depth has been tested with some injuries, whether it's
Speaker 10: to Blake Snow or even somewhere like Tyler Glass now
Speaker 10: Tyler working his way back, Blake having surgery tomorrow. But
Speaker 10: you're seeing the offensively take off right now, and so
Speaker 10: you're feeling a little bit of the different And so
Speaker 10: the hope is not only it's not just is this
Speaker 10: a measuring stick going up against the projects as to
Speaker 10: where this team is at right now, it's more of
Speaker 10: how do we maintain.
Speaker 11: This consistency that we're seeing amongst.
Speaker 10: The group because it has been a bit of an
Speaker 10: up and down season for the team, and they just
Speaker 10: want to kind of get back on track as to
Speaker 10: who they truly are as a group and continue to
Speaker 10: show that.
Speaker 11: So that's really how they're approaching this series.
Speaker 7: Now.
Speaker 4: This is a San Diego team.
Speaker 6: They've been playing really well, the offense is clicking, the
Speaker 6: starting pitching has been pretty good for them, But it's
Speaker 6: their bulpen.
Speaker 4: That they hang their head on.
Speaker 6: And I know a lot of times Garrison the Dodgers
Speaker 6: want to get to that starter and knock them out
Speaker 6: of the game as early as possible to get to
Speaker 6: their team's bullpen. But oh, this is a pretty good
Speaker 6: bullpen they're gonna go up against.
Speaker 10: Yeah, no, that's It's kind of fun that you mentioned
Speaker 10: this because I was talking to Taoskar Hernandez just in
Speaker 10: regard to does the approach or the plan for the
Speaker 10: offense change when you are going up against a team
Speaker 10: and they're facing Michael King today.
Speaker 11: He is their ace for the for the Padres.
Speaker 10: But as you mentioned, they have a very talented bullpen,
Speaker 10: one of the best is in the league, and how
Speaker 10: do you then manage that? And they were saying, ultimately,
Speaker 10: when it comes to this one, you want to find
Speaker 10: a take.
Speaker 11: You want to try to take advantage.
Speaker 10: Of the mistakes that King might have if you can
Speaker 10: find ways to get to him, But ultimately you want
Speaker 10: to try to build innings on him. So then you're
Speaker 10: not seeing the highest leverage of arms. If it's a
Speaker 10: two run game and they're going to the bullpen, then
Speaker 10: you're gonna see a those high leverage arms, and you
Speaker 10: don't want to put themselves. The office does not want
Speaker 10: to put themselves in that situation. So the hope is,
Speaker 10: how do they stick to themselves? How do they find
Speaker 10: ways to kind of build innings early against King or
Speaker 10: on the flip side, If you do see the high
Speaker 10: leverage arms early, how can you take in that information
Speaker 10: to kind of use to their benefit as the series
Speaker 10: keeps going, So.
Speaker 11: They feel like they have a good plan of attack.
Speaker 10: Ultimately, guys just feel like their quality of at bats
Speaker 10: have been better. The results have been there. Specifically for
Speaker 10: someone like Tao. He was saying that, you know, as
Speaker 10: much as he was moved in the order, and you know,
Speaker 10: if you look at like three four weeks ago, the
Speaker 10: results weren't really there.
Speaker 11: He still felt like he was in a good spot.
Speaker 10: He just was hitting the ball on the ground and
Speaker 10: not in the air, and he feels like now.
Speaker 11: That part has shifted. So the hope is really for
Speaker 11: them just to keep it going. They're feeling good.
Speaker 10: It seems like the Blue jerseys are working out really
Speaker 10: well for the group.
Speaker 4: And I don't know if.
Speaker 10: There's something a little superstitious about it, but the guys
Speaker 10: like it, and if it's.
Speaker 11: Putting runs on the board, then we accept it, you know.
Speaker 4: Yep.
Speaker 6: If it's working, keep it going. And the Dodgers are
Speaker 6: rolling right now going to this series against the Pod Jays, Kirsten,
Speaker 6: we appreciate it's gonna be a sold out crowd at
Speaker 6: pet Go Park tonight. It's certainly going to be a

Speaker 5: Five game winning streak, the offensive scored forty runs. Does
Speaker 5: it feel like you guys are starting to come together?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, you know, we've been playing great ball lately.
Speaker 12: I mean, our pitching staff's on a great job all year,
Speaker 12: and they did another great job.
Speaker 4: Here today in the series.
Speaker 12: And our you know, offense has just done really good

Speaker 12: line moving, leaving it up to the next guy and
Speaker 12: just trying to put as much pressure on the opposing
Speaker 12: you know pitching staff, So we just continue to do
Speaker 12: that playing good baseball, it'll be all right.
Speaker 5: Can you appreciate the fact when you guys put up
Speaker 5: crooked numbers early in the game, a guy like Roki
Speaker 5: Sasaki can throw more strikes and feel more free and
Speaker 5: easy out there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think.
Speaker 12: I mean, you know, obviously we try and put a
Speaker 12: runds every inning. I mean, I think it just makes
Speaker 12: it easier overall for us. You know, it's not gonna
Speaker 12: happen every day, every single ending, every single game, but
Speaker 12: I mean, if you can just continue putting up good
Speaker 12: at bats and trying to make a little easier on
Speaker 12: the pitching staff who's held it down for us all
Speaker 12: year long, it's it makes a little bit easier.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Do you feel like you're getting into a rhythm yourself?
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, uh, just trying to have good at
Speaker 12: bats and just keep the line moving. You know, guys

Speaker 6: and Padres. I'm Tim Kates. Is the back to back
Speaker 6: World Series champion Dodgers Audio.
Speaker 7: Now, as we were saying.
Speaker 1: Yes, is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Jack on the official
Speaker 1: home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: It's the Dodgers and the Padres on this Monday night.
Speaker 6: Yoshinobu Yamamo on the mount. First pitch coming up at
Speaker 6: six forty. Dodgers Baseball brought to you by Alpoto.
Speaker 4: Born in La and made for your game day.
Speaker 6: El Pato brings authentic Mexican style tomato, sauces, sausas and
Speaker 6: hot sauces right to your table. El Poto, gourmee and
Speaker 6: a can.
Speaker 1: Joining Tim Kats on Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 5: I accept everybody for who they are.
Speaker 1: This is Dodger insider David Basse.
Speaker 6: All right, David, it's gonna be a fun couple of
Speaker 6: nights in San Diego fighting for first place between the
Speaker 6: Dodgers and Padres.
Speaker 4: Here in late May. But the Dodgers.
Speaker 6: Yesterday made an interesting move acquiring veteran Eric Lauer from
Speaker 6: the Blue Jays.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's because the Dodgers have had a lot of
Speaker 5: injuries to their pitchers and right now their pitching depth
Speaker 5: is very thin. River Ryan just came back after missing
Speaker 5: a month with a left hamstring strain, so Tyler Glassnell
Speaker 5: probably not going to pitch for another month. Blake Snell
Speaker 5: undergoing left elbow surgery tomorrow, So the Dodgers need a
Speaker 5: pitcher if they're going to keep this six man rotation
Speaker 5: and not compromise any of their other pitchers to injury
Speaker 5: or fatigue. So Eric Lower, who had a very good
Speaker 5: year with the Blue Jays last year, got off to
Speaker 5: a rough start this season with an e l over six,
Speaker 5: but the Dodgers believe they can get him back on track.
Speaker 5: We actually just had a chance to talk to Dodgers
Speaker 5: GM Brandon Gomes. Here's what he said about the thinking
Speaker 5: behind trading for Eric Lower.
Speaker 7: Brandon, what can you.
Speaker 5: Tell us about the Eric Lower trade and how he
Speaker 5: fits in?
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, obviously Eric's coming off a great year
Speaker 13: last year this year showing signs of being effective, but
Speaker 13: not quite.
Speaker 4: To the level of last year. So as you.
Speaker 13: Know, we're dealing with some pitching injuries and wanting to
Speaker 13: have guys available to come in and take down starts
Speaker 13: or you know, go deeper into games.
Speaker 4: Eric fits into that.
Speaker 5: Do you feel like he's gonna help out in bullpen
Speaker 5: game situations or be a starter?
Speaker 4: We're leaning more starter as of now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's to keep He hasn't been such a nice
Speaker 1: job keeping that six time rotation for reasons.
Speaker 4: We talked about.
Speaker 11: Is that it's kind of just make sure that that
Speaker 11: can stay on track.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, the biggest thing is to make sure that,
Speaker 13: you know, we're balancing winning as many games as possible,
Speaker 13: but not you know, now panic and panicking and throwing
Speaker 13: our process out of whack here, So trying to balance
Speaker 13: the short and long term. And you know, this is
Speaker 13: a guy that's had a lot of success in the
Speaker 13: big leagues and somebody that we feel like we can
Speaker 13: get back to what.
Speaker 1: He was last year.
Speaker 5: Eric Lower has not joined the Dodgers yet, tim but
Speaker 5: he is expected to join the club before they leave
Speaker 5: for Milwaukee. So he does have a window of time
Speaker 5: to kind of make a transition when you get traded
Speaker 5: this early in the season, So the Dodgers are expecting
Speaker 5: him to be here in San Diego before they head
Speaker 5: to Milwaukee. Brandon Gomes was asked whether or not Lower
Speaker 5: would make his first start with the Dodgers during that
Speaker 5: three game weekend series against the Brewers, and he said
Speaker 5: the Dodgers are still talking through that.
Speaker 6: David is brought to by the Fort and Maverick Motor
Speaker 6: Trends in North American Truck of the Year. It's innovative
Speaker 6: with forty two miles per gallon at the best msrp F.
Speaker 6: It's category time to see Ford in a new light.
Speaker 6: Do so at your Southern California four dealers today. Dave
Speaker 6: Real quickly Blake Snell. What's the latest on the elbow
Speaker 6: surgery tomorrow?
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Brandon Gomes also informed us that he is going to
Speaker 5: undergo a scope tomorrow to remove those loose bodies in
Speaker 5: his left elbow.
Speaker 7: Here's the good news.
Speaker 5: He said, he is going to undergo that nanoscope procedure
Speaker 5: that Trek Scouble underwent at the hands of doctor Neil Ellachosh,

Speaker 6: Haffy hot Dogs Local and the So Great Way. We
Speaker 6: continue here on Wrongo Casino Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 4: We will check in with.
Speaker 6: Charlie Steiner, so we head up the first pitch Dodgers
Speaker 6: m Padres from San Diego. Oh, the fight for first
Speaker 6: in the NL West begins tonight. Tim Keats is the
Speaker 6: back to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on tap on your home
Speaker 1: for the Blue all season long.
Speaker 6: Law Dodgers and Padre is getting ready to start a
Speaker 6: three game series from Petco Park in San Diego.
Speaker 4: Yoshinobu Yamamoto gets the start time.
Speaker 6: Now for the Verizon startup, as we're thirty minutes away
Speaker 6: from the start of the game. Now, Verizon, you can
Speaker 6: lock in your low prize for three years so you
Speaker 6: can save big. Visit your SoCal Verizon store today. We
Speaker 6: say hello to Charlie Stunner.
Speaker 14: All right, Tim, Now it's the Dodgers and the Padres,
Speaker 14: the first of three at Petco Park. And here are
Speaker 14: the Dodgers with a half a game lead on the
Speaker 14: Padres Dodgers twenty nine and eighteen, a season high eleven
Speaker 14: games over five hundred, a half game in front of
Speaker 14: the Padres Padres to twenty eight and eighteen, they too
Speaker 14: are at a season high ten games over five hundred
Speaker 14: after the Dodgers just demolished the Angels all weekend, and
Speaker 14: so now certainly stiffer competition. So let's talk about first, Sasaki,
Speaker 14: who was one of the headline stories yesterday, and he
Speaker 14: was terrific. There are no quipples there, seven innings, a
Speaker 14: run for hit, eight strikeass, no walks, ninety one pitches,
Speaker 14: his best start of his Dodger career. But how much
Speaker 14: of an asterisk do you put on that low because
Speaker 14: we're talking about an Angels team that is just dreadful,
Speaker 14: hitting two twenty eight, the lowest team batting average in baseball,
Speaker 14: and with their record being what it is the worst
Speaker 14: in baseball?
Speaker 7: How do you play into that when you look at
Speaker 7: those numbers.
Speaker 8: I think it's a very legal question to be asking,
Speaker 8: because if you put it in perspective of teams that
Speaker 8: Dodgers have played, the Angels came in with less firepower
Speaker 8: than what any other team has done. I mean that
Speaker 8: was the thirty first loss of the season. The Dodgers
Speaker 8: want to get yesterday by a score of ten to one.
Speaker 8: The other part two is Dodgers had twenty nine hits,
Speaker 8: Angels had fifteen. So put it in perspective, I think
Speaker 8: the biggest thing that I drew out of the outing
Speaker 8: by a Sasaki. He looked a more comfortable and B
Speaker 8: he challenged hitters to swing the bats regardless of their
Speaker 8: batting average. He challenged him to swing the bats instead
Speaker 8: of looking like he was trying to pitch around hitters
Speaker 8: even making contact.
Speaker 14: Terrific Patching matchup tonight Now, I'm Amoto making his ninth
Speaker 14: start of the year three and three, a three point
Speaker 14: six er, Michael King three and two, and he's got
Speaker 14: an the RAF two and two thirds. Let's talk about
Speaker 14: Andy pas a little bit. I mean he he was
Speaker 14: a defensive wizard out there all weekend. I mean there
Speaker 14: was nothing that was going to get past him or
Speaker 14: around him.
Speaker 7: It was remarkable performance.
Speaker 8: Yeah, and I think if you look at three years ago,
Speaker 8: we saw Andy Piez. I talked to some coaches when
Speaker 8: Pies first came up, and I said, look, there's an issue.
Speaker 8: As a former center fielder, I said, when the ball
Speaker 8: across his home plate, you need to have both feet
Speaker 8: on the ground. Why, well, you're gonna have to move
Speaker 8: in one of four different directions. You go in, you
Speaker 8: go back, you go left, or right. You cannot do
Speaker 8: that if you have one foot in the air. And
Speaker 8: that's exactly what he was doing because he was taking
Speaker 8: a step forward. The right foot was still in the
Speaker 8: air when the ball crossed the home plate area. Well,
Speaker 8: something I talked with Dino Evil for a couple of
Speaker 8: years about, and then Dino this year is in charge
Speaker 8: of the outfielders. And with Dino working with Andy Pahz
Speaker 8: pa haz Now and I said this twice in a
Speaker 8: series in Anaheim, pa haz to me plays center field
Speaker 8: like he is daring you, absolutely daring you to hit
Speaker 8: the ball anywhere close to him, because he's just flat
Speaker 8: out told everybody I own this area, don't dare enter
Speaker 8: it with a baseball.
Speaker 14: So now we're talking about him as an elite defensive
Speaker 14: center fielder. He leads the National League with forty one
Speaker 14: runs batted in fifth and the Leaion hits.
Speaker 7: Yes. All Star Game is two months away. Got it?
Speaker 14: But has there been a better center fielder in the
Speaker 14: National League so far this year that certainly we've seen.
Speaker 8: Well both sides of the baseball. Here's another area too.
Speaker 8: His base running has really improved if we look at
Speaker 8: this year really I think the second half of last
Speaker 8: year too. And by improving, I'm talking about awareness, anticipation,
Speaker 8: and also he has learned now ahead of time. Oh yes,
Speaker 8: you're relying upon the third base coach, that being dinu Ebel.
Speaker 8: If you're at first base and to make the round
Speaker 8: at second base, before you get to the second base bag,
Speaker 8: you're picking up the third base coach understanding. Look is
Speaker 8: he calling you over or is he telling you to
Speaker 8: hold up? But Bajes now has a better idea of
Speaker 8: which outfielders can a get to the baseball very quickly,
Speaker 8: b which ones decide, well, I'm not going to run
Speaker 8: that hard to get the baseball, and then see who
Speaker 8: has really good throwing arms, and you mix that all
Speaker 8: into one area. He has been much much better in
Speaker 8: running the bases.
Speaker 14: How As he get ready for those game, as we
Speaker 14: often do, we go over to the stats and explain
Speaker 14: to me, if you can bo here are the Padres
Speaker 14: eleventh in the National League in runs scored, dead last
Speaker 14: with a two to twenty four batting average. They're ninth
Speaker 14: in the league in home runs on base percentagear. The
Speaker 14: bottom ops near the bottom, and the starting rotation ain't bad.
Speaker 7: This has been the bullpen. But how are they able
Speaker 7: to do this?
Speaker 8: It's a good question do they win games when they
Speaker 8: have to win them? The Diners are twenty nine victories
Speaker 8: and San Diego in spite of the numbers you're just reciting. Yeah,
Speaker 8: last in the hitting area, sixteenth in ERA overall, but
Speaker 8: they have twenty eight wins and knocking on the door
Speaker 8: in first place. It's a ball club that wants to win.
Speaker 8: It's had success. It has had three consecutive appearances in
Speaker 8: the postseason. They've been there five for the last seven years,
Speaker 8: and when you come down into this ballpark, they feel
Speaker 8: they have a big advantage, although this year they're just
Speaker 8: thirteen and ten at home, three games above the five
Speaker 8: hundred mark.
Speaker 7: Oh, it's the first of three? Is Yamamoto and King
Speaker 7: coming up? Tim?
Speaker 6: All right, thank you, Charlie. The Big Series starts tonight
Speaker 6: in San Diego. Dodgers Baseball's presented by Uniclo Field at

Speaker 6: Steven and Rake will have those keys.
Speaker 1: To the game.
Speaker 6: But up next we go high and tie with the
Speaker 6: manager Dave Roberts. Get his thoughts going to this series.
Speaker 6: Dodgers right in a five game winning streak head in
Speaker 6: San Diego. First pitch of six forty I have Tim
Speaker 6: Katz is the back to back World Series champion Dodgers
Speaker 6: Audio Network.
Speaker 1: As we were saying yes, is Morongo Casino Dodgers on
Speaker 1: Deck on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: It's the Dodgers and the Padres, first of three from
Speaker 6: Petco Park. A half game separates La and San Diego.
Speaker 6: Yoshinobu Yamamoto Michael King the pitching matchup of the series opener.
Speaker 6: Dodgers Baseball's brought to you by Shaky's Pizza Parler, the
Speaker 6: official pizza partner of the Dodgers Audio broadcast. Whin It's
Speaker 6: game night, It's group night at Shaky's dot Com.
Speaker 1: And now what will likely be vast fielding insults from
Speaker 1: a Dodger player.
Speaker 4: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 1: This is high and tight.
Speaker 5: It's the Dodgers and Padres. That's enough said right there,
Speaker 5: and we're with three time World Series winning manager Dave
Speaker 5: Roberts in the office. Dave, thanks a lot for the time,
Speaker 5: and this is going to be exciting.
Speaker 15: It's gonna be fun. You know, these guys obviously a
Speaker 15: lot a lot of talent over there, and geography lends
Speaker 15: yourself to a rivalry. Certainly their play, our play lends
Speaker 15: yourself to a rivalry in the last handful of year.
Speaker 15: So it's gonna be a fun, hopefully not too eventful series,
Speaker 15: but it's gonna be good baseball.
Speaker 5: You were asked yesterday whether or not the Padres being
Speaker 5: as good as they've been has helped push you guys
Speaker 5: during the regular season. Do you feel like every great
Speaker 5: team needs that The Yankees had the Red Sox over
Speaker 5: the course of time. Do you feel like the Padres
Speaker 5: are that for the Dodgers.
Speaker 15: Well, I think if you look at recent history, yes,
Speaker 15: you know, you know, you're talking about rivalries and what fans,
Speaker 15: what media look towards. And yeah, I do think that
Speaker 15: good teams make you better, and so, you know, not
Speaker 15: even close to comparing it to the Lakers Celtics. But
Speaker 15: when you have a team that is a rival, a nemesis,
Speaker 15: whatever you want to kind of say, it does bring
Speaker 15: out the best in you.
Speaker 5: Do you get excited for these type of series?
Speaker 1: I do.
Speaker 15: I do, but you know, I also try to manage
Speaker 15: my emotions a little bit more going into it. It
Speaker 15: always hasn't played out on the field, but I think
Speaker 15: that I know that the intensity is going to be
Speaker 15: there organically, so I try not to get too hyped up.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Dave Roberts says sur by what seven padres managers
Speaker 5: over the course of your time managing the Dodgers.
Speaker 15: Yeah, it's crazy, you know, but they still got their
Speaker 15: core of you know, their position players. But there's been
Speaker 15: some turnover over there and now new ownership. But it's
Speaker 15: a fun place to come play a ball game, certainly
Speaker 15: if you're the Dodgers, and you know, they do everything
Speaker 15: they can to kind of keep our fans from attending
Speaker 15: down here because it is and has been pet Coo
Speaker 15: South or Dodgers Stadium South, but we still get represented
Speaker 15: pretty well down here.
Speaker 5: What's it like for Dave Roberts in your neighborhood. I know,
Speaker 5: whenever the Padres are that one time the Padres beat
Speaker 5: the Dodgers in the postseason, you would get stop walking
Speaker 5: your dog? Do you do you get left alone these days?
Speaker 15: Yeah, it's dissipated recently, which is great for me. It's
Speaker 15: tough living down here in the offseason, and I take
Speaker 15: my fair share of riving, but it's quieted down, which
Speaker 15: is a good thing for me.
Speaker 5: Five game winning streak. You guys have scored forty runs
Speaker 5: during that those five wins. What stood out to you
Speaker 5: the most about your offense during this winning streak?
Speaker 15: I think at bad quality and I know I say
Speaker 15: that a lot and just kind of really it's it
Speaker 15: really is, you know, the idea of really swinging it, strikes,
Speaker 15: moving the ball forward when you get that opportunity the
Speaker 15: ending the at bat, taking balls, you know, there's a
Speaker 15: lot of counts, pitches in counts that you know, it
Speaker 15: goes from a three to one count if you take
Speaker 15: a ball at ball versus swing at it and it's
Speaker 15: two to two count. And people remember the final you know,
Speaker 15: pitch of the at bat. But there's a lot of
Speaker 15: pitches in between that matter just as much. And so
Speaker 15: I think for me in the Angel Series, I thought
Speaker 15: that we valued every pitch within the at bat more
Speaker 15: and the walks will result and just again earning counts.
Speaker 15: You know, you don't get to three to one, three
Speaker 15: to zero. You earn those counts and then make the
Speaker 15: pitcher have to come to you. So that's for me,
Speaker 15: that mindset was better this last series.
Speaker 5: When you say that where you have to earn counts,
Speaker 5: what do you mean by that?
Speaker 15: Well, I think that you do that by not being
Speaker 15: stubborn in your zone. You know, when it's a one
Speaker 15: O pitch that's just off a breaking ball and you
Speaker 15: take it. You've earned that one oh count instead of
Speaker 15: swinging at it hyper aggressively to then being an O
Speaker 15: one count. You know, when it's a one to one
Speaker 15: pitch and it's a slider down in a way and
Speaker 15: you take it, you've earned that two to one count,
Speaker 15: you know. And you saw even in the Angels series
Speaker 15: there were some two oh sliders that they threw us
Speaker 15: and we got into two to one counts by swinging.
Speaker 15: But if we would have taken that slider off, we'd
Speaker 15: have earned a three zero count. So I think that
Speaker 15: for me, I liked the idea of earning something and
Speaker 15: if you put it in that mindset within your bat.
Speaker 15: I think it's more motivating.
Speaker 5: Does that create some accountability amongst the players themselves?
Speaker 7: I think so?
Speaker 15: And I also think that what it does is that
Speaker 15: it puts it into context for the player that you know,
Speaker 15: good counts don't just happen. You've got to put in
Speaker 15: your work or as I've just said, you've got to
Speaker 15: earn those counts.
Speaker 5: You were a leadoff hitter, very much different style of
Speaker 5: a lead offitter than show Heyo Tani. But how much
Speaker 5: does he make your offense go?
Speaker 15: He really makes it go. You can see this last
Speaker 15: series what he did because when he's touching it, when
Speaker 15: he's moving it forward, he's slugging. You know, he hasn't
Speaker 15: home in a while, but he did back home. But
Speaker 15: the doubles or the inside the park homer, I'm sorry, yeah,
Speaker 15: he had the inside the park Homer, but the doubles
Speaker 15: and the walks and then the stolen bases, and you know,
Speaker 15: guys just feed off of his energy. And if you
Speaker 15: look back at that last series against Andreels, again he
Speaker 15: did a good job of earning good counts.
Speaker 5: All Right, Dave, thanks a lot for the time. We're
Speaker 5: all excited for this series, but more excited about the
Speaker 5: way the Dodgers are starting to look like themselves again.
Speaker 5: Thanks a lot for the time and always great to
Speaker 5: catch up with you.
Speaker 15: Appreciate you, Dave, Talk to you next week.

Speaker 6: this series? Is Dodger team winning five in a row.
Speaker 6: Let's dive deeper into this pitching matchup when we return.
Speaker 4: I'm Tim Katson. Is the back to back World Series
Speaker 4: champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: Well, this is Morongo Casino Dodgers Hunters game on your
Speaker 1: home for La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: It's the Dodgers and the Padres going at a game
Speaker 6: one of this three game set from Petco Park.
Speaker 4: First pitch coming up at six forty.
Speaker 1: And now before the Dodgers hit the din neck, we
Speaker 1: look at the pitching matchup.
Speaker 4: Brought to you by your Toyota Dealers. We make it easy.
Speaker 6: Michael King on the mound for the Padres three and two,
Speaker 6: two sixty three e r thirty year old the right hander.
Speaker 6: It is eighth season now in the Big league's five
Speaker 6: seas as a reliever, primarily with the Yankees. Then he
Speaker 6: came to the Padres and he's been a starter now
Speaker 6: in three seasons. Change up sinker sweeper, making his tenth
Speaker 6: start last time out four or five and two third innings,
Speaker 6: one run, six hits, five strikeouts and a no decision
Speaker 6: against Milwaukee. He's limiting opponents to a one EIGHTEAM batting
Speaker 6: average in the first time through the lineup, and the
Speaker 6: second time through they're hitting one seventy four. The third
Speaker 6: time through, though, they're hitting three fifty, so you got
Speaker 6: to wait him out. He's two to zero with the
Speaker 6: two eighty two EERRA and a one to eighty eight
Speaker 6: batting average against against the Dodgers, with four of his
Speaker 6: five previous outings against them coming in twenty twenty four,
Speaker 6: he did not face him at all last year.
Speaker 4: Yoshinobu Yamamoto goes.
Speaker 6: For the Dodgers three and three three sixty ERA twenty
Speaker 6: seven year old right handed third season with the Dodgers,
Speaker 6: making his ninth start last time out, six and the
Speaker 6: third innings five runs, six hits, three home runs, eight
Speaker 6: strikeouts on the.
Speaker 4: Loss of the Giants. Looking to bounce back.
Speaker 6: He faced the Padres four times in his career, one
Speaker 6: in two of a erra that is about three seventy
Speaker 6: five eighteen in the third innings, nineteen strikeouts. He picked
Speaker 6: up the win last time out last September when he
Speaker 6: went six straw solid innings. Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Michael King. The
Speaker 6: pitching matchup. Dodgers and the Padres were fifteen minutes away
Speaker 6: from first pitch.
Speaker 4: Keys to the game are next.
Speaker 6: I'm Tim Kates is the back to back World Series
Speaker 6: champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on deck on your home
Speaker 1: for the Blue All season long.
Speaker 4: Dodgers and Padre is getting ready.
Speaker 6: To square off first of three from Petco Park. Yoshinobu Yamamoto,
Speaker 6: Michael King. The pitching matchup. A half game separates them
Speaker 6: in the standings in the NL West. As we get
Speaker 6: you ready for the start of the game with the
Speaker 6: Sapporo starts a great moments, start with Sapporo Beer. Whatever
Speaker 6: your taste preferences, Soporo has you covered with a variety
Speaker 6: of crisp and refreshing loggers, including the light and non
Speaker 6: alcoholic beers. Sapporo good with sushi, great with baseball. Let's
Speaker 6: head back out to the booth one final time before
Speaker 6: first pitch. Stephen Nelson and Rick Monday, guys, just a
Speaker 6: few minutes away from.
Speaker 9: My King's first pitch of the series, the Dodgers and
Speaker 9: Padres kicking off a three game set. As the Dodgers
Speaker 9: continued this nine game road trip coming off a series
Speaker 9: sweep of the Angels, They've won.
Speaker 4: Five in a row.
Speaker 9: Moe, what will be the key to win a sixth
Speaker 9: game in a row?
Speaker 8: Well, I think for the Dodgers again, it's going to
Speaker 8: be a situation from an offensive standpoint, pick up the
Speaker 8: baseball early because King will change speeds. Good change up.
Speaker 8: Also the breaking stuff. Here's the other thing about Michael King.
Speaker 8: When he gets ahead and counts, it's an eighty three
Speaker 8: batting average against. The reason I bring that up because
Speaker 8: now we're going to move over to Yashinobu Yamamoto. It's
Speaker 8: trying to win us fourth of the season. When he's
Speaker 8: ahead and account it's a one thirty nine average, that's
Speaker 8: the good point. When he's behind in the count, that
Speaker 8: batting average against goes up to three twenty seven. So
Speaker 8: for tonight, don't fall behind, and everybody keeps waiting for
Speaker 8: Fernando to tist Junior to explode. Hopefully that's not going
Speaker 8: to happen. Over the next three nights.
Speaker 9: Here, Yoshinoba Yamamoto gonna try and snap a trend that
Speaker 9: he does not like tim and that's the fact that
Speaker 9: he has given up at least three earned runs in
Speaker 9: four straight starts for the first time in the major leagues.
Speaker 9: He will start tonight against the Padres. Looking forward to
Speaker 9: this one will join you in just a few moments.
Speaker 4: All right, bucko up, Dodger fans.
Speaker 1: Here we go.
Speaker 6: Half game separates the Dodgers and Padres. Yoshinobu Yamamoto will.
Speaker 4: Go for the blue.
Speaker 6: Michael King takes the mountain next for the Padres.
