Well yesterday at Dodger 0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:12.040 Stadium in Colorado, excuse me. The Dodgers jumped out to 0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:14.480 a big lead, a three to nothing lead, thinks to 0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:18.239 Alex Freelan's RBI single to right, scoring Heis and Kim 0:02:18.240 --> 0:02:20.200 and the Dodgers were up one to nothing. Then showey 0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:23.200 Otani followed that up with an RBI double. The Dodgers 0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:26.120 had a two to nothing lead on Michael Lorenzen. Then 0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:29.040 in the fourth, the Dodgers, still facing Lorenzen the pride 0:02:29.080 --> 0:02:33.160 of cal State Fullerton, when Ryan Award had a base. 0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:37.560 Knock swings there. It is base hit right field, first 0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:38.440 major league. 0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:41.359 Hit for ward by his rounding third, he'll score. 0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:46.119 It's three nothing. Get that man, the baseball. You'll get 0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:51.840 the baseball. Get a souvenir in a moment of a lifetime. 0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:55.120 Ryan Award had been waiting in the minor leagues for 0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:58.320 like seven plus season. Scott the call up, got the start, 0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:01.160 and he gets his first base hit, an RBI single 0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:03.720 to right score and Andy Pajez and the Dodgers had 0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:07.480 a three to nothing lead. However, Roki Sasaki walk the 0:03:07.520 --> 0:03:10.960 tight rope, could not get anybody out. In the fourth, 0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:13.080 runs Field single to right. It was a three to 0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:15.639 one game. Then in the fifth, Kyle Carrol's homer to 0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:17.640 Love center field. That made it a three to two game. 0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:21.120 Julian single to center, and just like that, the Dodgers 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:24.280 and Rockies were all tied up at three. Top of 0:03:24.320 --> 0:03:26.560 the sixth inning, Dodgers got some traffic on the base 0:03:26.639 --> 0:03:28.359 pass for Alex Freeland. 0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:30.200 You know what's also going to be on display at 0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:34.000 the Hall of Fame is the first written rules of Baseball. 0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:36.240 Really looking forward to seeing that. 0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:38.400 Are you going to get to go? 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:39.000 Yes? 0:03:39.680 --> 0:03:41.800 One to oh pitch in the right field of base 0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:45.880 hit for Freeland. Dodgers retake the lead, Paul Scores rounding 0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:48.800 second and pulling into third, standing up as he Son 0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:52.400 Kim second run batted in this afternoon for Alex Freeland 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:54.240 and the Dodgers lead at four to three. 0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:57.480 Dodgers retake the lead in the top of the six. However, 0:03:57.680 --> 0:03:59.960 the bottom of the seventh in Hean proved to be 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:04.360 disaster for Blake Trining and the Dodgers' bullpen. After that 0:04:04.440 --> 0:04:08.280 got shelled, Dodgers found themselves down nine to four going 0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:11.360 to the ninth inning. Will Smith and RBI single, Dalton 0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:14.040 rushing and RBI ground out. Dodgers made it a nine 0:04:14.080 --> 0:04:16.479 to six game, but that's as close as they would 0:04:16.560 --> 0:04:20.479 get as the Rockies get a win nine to six 0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:23.800 over the Dodgers, as the loss goes to Blake Trining, 0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:28.240 who gave up three runs on four hits a home run, 0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:31.039 could not record it out as the Dodgers now have 0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:34.080 lost back to back games. So the Rockies tonight fourth 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.279 and final set from Corus Field as they look to 0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:38.920 get a split of this four game series. Justin Robleski 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.160 on the mound, first pitch at five forty and with more, 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:43.440 let's head out to the gallopin Ford broadcast with as 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:45.520 we welcome in Tim Neverett and Rick Monday. 0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:49.480 Guys, Thank you Tim. Beautiful weather here in Denver, Colorado. 0:04:49.480 --> 0:04:51.760 We couldn't say that a few nights ago when the 0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:54.480 snow came and the field was covered by a couple 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:57.640 of inches of it. But tonight a totally different deal. 0:04:58.040 --> 0:05:01.360 Temperatures expected to get as high as a before they'll 0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:05.400 start going back downhill, and just an absolutely picture perfect 0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:08.840 weather night for a ballgame here in Denver, Colorado. The 0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:11.880 final game of this four game wrap round series the 0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:15.359 Rockies nine and thirteen, they'll send left hander Jose Quintana 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:18.359 to the Hill. The veteran last faced the Dodgers in 0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:21.920 the postseason last year with the Brewers. Meantime, the Dodgers 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:24.880 fifteen and six will have lefty Justin Robluski on the hill, 0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:29.080 coming off his best outing as a Dodger. As far 0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:31.960 as the news of the day goes, Edwin Diaz going 0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:34.960 on the injured list. The Dodgers closer didn't look quite 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:38.280 right yesterday and after looking at him today, it's been 0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:42.160 determined he has loose bodies in his right pitching elbow, 0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:45.120 so he's going to go on the injured list. Jake Eder, 0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:48.279 another lefty, has been called up from Triple A, to 0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:52.760 take his spot, but right now the Dodgers say it's 0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:54.880 going to be closer by committee. They're not ready to 0:05:54.960 --> 0:05:57.200 name anybody to come in and finish up games here. 0:05:57.400 --> 0:05:59.640 Hopefully the surgery goes well and hopefully there's no other 0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:02.640 surprise is other than just the loose bodies that's enough 0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:05.800 to put him on the sidelines. For the Dodgers' bak club, 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:09.600 it's been kind of a strange offensively in this series. 0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:12.040 It's not that they have been stemmy. I mean they 0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:14.760 lose last night even though they had fifteen days hits. 0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:17.520 And the Dodgers with that loss back to back losses, 0:06:17.560 --> 0:06:21.599 the first team in baseball to have avoided losing back 0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:23.640 to back, and now they joined the group. How about 0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:29.000 very busy southern California city. The La Kings are here. 0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:31.520 They came out for batting practice to see what was happening. 0:06:31.960 --> 0:06:35.200 The Sandego Padres came into the Dodgers same hotel last night. 0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:36.920 They have an off day to day. They're back and 0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:39.800 harness tomorrow against the Rockies. And by the way, the 0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:42.200 Padres knocking in the doors, winners of nine of the 0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:45.000 last ten starting today, just a half game out of 0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:46.159 first behind the Dodgers. 0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:48.159 So they've been hot lately and the Dodgers have not. 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:50.799 They've lost two of the first three to the Rockies, 0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:54.520 and the Rockies trying to win this series tonight, the 0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:55.600 Dodgers hoping. 0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:56.800 For a series split. 0:06:57.320 --> 0:06:59.040 Sho hail Tani will still be at the top of 0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:02.039 the order, but number two, who Kyle Tucker, will take 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:05.279 the night off and Alex called a right handed bat 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:08.160 against the left he start Jose Kittana, we'll get the call. 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:11.680 And the other part too, is with Freddy Freeman on 0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:14.760 the paternity list. We saw last night Ryan Ward make 0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:17.520 his major league debut play at first base, had a 0:07:17.560 --> 0:07:21.120 couple of base hits, including an RBI single, knocked in 0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:24.080 his first run of the big leagues in his second 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:27.320 at bat. Made it look relatively easy. And tonight we 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:29.720 see Dalton Rushing, who's going to bat in the ninth 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:31.600 spot and he'll be at first base. 0:07:31.920 --> 0:07:36.160 So the Dodgers taking on the Rockies. The Rockies Troy Johnston, 0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:39.160 Now he's not a household name. I don't think any 0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:42.080 Dodger fans ever heard of Troy Johnston before this series, 0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:45.640 but he has been on fire. He's five for seven 0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:48.480 in the last two games with three doubles and a 0:07:48.520 --> 0:07:52.080 couple of RBIs. The left handed batter has had such 0:07:52.120 --> 0:07:55.320 a good game that Warren Schaffer, the manager of the Rockies, 0:07:55.400 --> 0:07:57.080 is going to keep him in the lineup against the 0:07:57.120 --> 0:07:57.960 left e er Bluskin. 0:07:58.040 --> 0:08:00.600 And why not, especially at Homer He's hitting over three 0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:03.280 point eighty and at home six extra base since he's 0:08:03.320 --> 0:08:07.320 knocked in six runs. He's enjoyed the high elevation the 0:08:07.360 --> 0:08:08.280 Coors Field. 0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:12.480 Robuski against Kintana. It's the Dodgers against the Rockies' final 0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:14.640 game of this four game series. 0:08:14.680 --> 0:08:16.480 Tim all right, thank you guys as we cut you 0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:19.000 down to first pitch.

There had been 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:02.360 a week in between those two outings, the first one 0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:06.160 in which he gave up his first blown save against 0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:08.720 the Rangers. When he was talking to just some of 0:11:08.760 --> 0:11:11.200 the media afterwards, he was saying he had felt like 0:11:11.280 --> 0:11:13.920 he just felt like he wasn't right in that outing. 0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:16.320 And obviously he had knee surgery back in twenty and 0:11:16.320 --> 0:11:18.280 twenty three, and he thought maybe that was kind of 0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:21.160 contributing to a little bit of a slower start earlier 0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:24.400 in the year. But after his outing yesterday, Dave Roberts, 0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:25.839 even when he was talking to the media, he made 0:11:25.840 --> 0:11:29.560 it clear that just something didn't seem right. Obviously just 0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:34.560 the velocity wasn't just doing a bad place, but location 0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:37.760 just wasn't there. And so afterward, when we spoke to 0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:39.560 the training staff, I do want had shared that he 0:11:39.600 --> 0:11:42.120 had some elbow discomfort. They decided send him in to 0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:46.360 have some imaging and that's what has now exposed these 0:11:46.400 --> 0:11:48.600 loose bodies that he's dealing with in his right elbow. 0:11:48.679 --> 0:11:51.280 So he is going to have surgery. The hope is 0:11:51.320 --> 0:11:53.040 that he will be ready to go by the second 0:11:53.040 --> 0:11:56.040 half of the season. Obviously it's very early, so finding 0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:59.680 out this news now is a good thing, but still 0:11:59.679 --> 0:12:00.880 a blow for edwin ds. 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:03.840 What is the plan now as far as the Dodgers' 0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:05.640 bullpen and a closer. 0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:07.719 So they're not going to go with a closer for now. 0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:10.240 Obviously they've got guys like Tanner, Scott, Alex Setia has 0:12:10.240 --> 0:12:13.520 been performing really well, but they've decided that for now 0:12:13.600 --> 0:12:16.319 they're not going to have a true closer. They just 0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:18.360 kind of have guys that are going to be available 0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:20.239 in key situations. 0:12:20.280 --> 0:12:22.480 Being around this team the last couple of hours since 0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:24.079 the news came out, what has been the vibe? What 0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:26.400 have you noticed about everybody else in that locker room? 0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:28.720 You know what I think. Obviously it's tough news, but 0:12:28.760 --> 0:12:30.320 they know how to show up for each other. It's 0:12:30.360 --> 0:12:32.360 not the first star that's gone down on this team, 0:12:32.400 --> 0:12:34.200 and so they are just going to continue, especially the 0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:36.320 guys in the bullpens, continue to step up for each 0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:39.439 other and obviously, you know, find ways to still be competitive, 0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:41.720 and they've been performing really well outside of these last 0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:44.960 two games, but looking to compete in when Edwin returns 0:12:44.960 --> 0:12:47.200 and it's healthy, just kind of have me putting him 0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:48.559 in a position where you can slot. 0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:50.360 Right back in no doubt all right here, So we 0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:52.439 appreciate it coming up here on WRONGO because you know, 0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:54.679 Dodgers on deck will dive deeper to this pitching matchup. 0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:58.280 David Sin's going to go one on one with Dalton Rushing. 0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:00.160 But up next, we'll get you an injury report and 0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:03.200 we'll hear from the manager himself, Dave Roberts.

We're looking 0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:55.320 at about a three month timetable for him to return. 0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:58.280 More on that coming up with Dave Roberts, the manager. 0:13:58.320 --> 0:14:01.560 In just a minute.

All right, 0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:21.160 let's head back to Denver. We promised you an update. 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:26.520 Let's hear from the manager himself. The questions for Dave. 0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:28.680 Dave, can you just describe Dave? 0:14:28.760 --> 0:14:32.240 Can you talk about the pressure in the dugouts with 0:14:32.440 --> 0:14:33.560 Dave Robberts. 0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:38.560 Yeah, well, obviously we all saw you know, the stuff 0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:41.960 last night and it was set up, you know, red flags, 0:14:42.960 --> 0:14:47.120 and so after the game, he had a conversation with 0:14:47.360 --> 0:14:51.840 our training staff and thought that he had some elbow 0:14:51.920 --> 0:14:57.240 discomfort and kind of looking at you know, what was 0:14:57.280 --> 0:14:59.520 going on last night. So we just wanted to be 0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:02.280 prac diff and felt that it was smart to get 0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:06.440 an MRI, get imma jinging, which we did do, and 0:15:06.960 --> 0:15:11.120 it showed loose bodies and so it happens with players, 0:15:11.160 --> 0:15:12.880 and so it just kind of came to a head 0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:17.200 last night, and so we felt get the surgery scheduled 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:21.200 and expect a second half return. 0:15:21.480 --> 0:15:23.720 Considering it is so early in the season. Does this 0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:27.400 at least feel somewhat like best case scenario of finding 0:15:27.440 --> 0:15:30.520 out this now being able to schedule surgery and putting 0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:32.320 him in a position which she could be available as 0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:32.840 I can have it. 0:15:33.200 --> 0:15:37.080 Yes, yeah, I think given you know, you losing your 0:15:37.120 --> 0:15:40.600 starter to a surgery, this is I would say best 0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:41.320 case scenario. 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:44.360 Just guesstory, was the first time you mentioned anything at 0:15:44.360 --> 0:15:44.760 the elbow? 0:15:44.920 --> 0:15:45.960 Yeah, yep. 0:15:46.440 --> 0:15:48.560 Did did he say if it had been bothering him 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:50.880 before the first time he felt it? 0:15:51.000 --> 0:15:55.200 First time he felt it, and so not to make 0:15:55.200 --> 0:15:58.320 it about myself is but I had that same surgery 0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:01.280 at the end of my and it's something that just 0:16:01.880 --> 0:16:04.760 you have loose bodies and they're asymptomatic until they're not, 0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:07.840 and so so I can actually can kind of relate to, 0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:10.760 you know, what he was going through. So it just 0:16:10.800 --> 0:16:12.880 happened last night, and it's unfortunate. 0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:13.520 All right. 0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:16.960 There's the manager Dave Roberts on Edwin Diaz MRIs shows 0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:21.160 bodies in the elbow surgery Wednesday out three months. So 0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:24.080 we continue here on Marogo Casino Dodgers on Deck. We'll 0:16:24.080 --> 0:16:27.200 get more from David Vesey.

We'll 0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:34.480 get that from David as we lead you up to 0:16:34.520 --> 0:16:38.440 first pitch. Dodgers and Rockies from Denver.

This injury to Edwin Diaz, this is 0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:35.359 gonna affect the Dodgers' bullpen there rolls down there more. 0:17:35.400 --> 0:17:37.320 But give it kind of give us what you know now. 0:17:38.520 --> 0:17:41.080 Well, what we know now is it's not his knee. 0:17:41.119 --> 0:17:43.639 It's his right elbow. Right, I mean, we heard about 0:17:43.640 --> 0:17:46.800 his knee. Uh, this is not his knee, it is 0:17:46.920 --> 0:17:49.920 his right elbow. He is going to miss the rest 0:17:49.920 --> 0:17:52.760 of the first half. Dave Roberts did not have any 0:17:52.920 --> 0:17:57.280 certain month or day when Edwin Diaz was going to return. 0:17:57.400 --> 0:18:02.080 But after Dave Roberts spoken after thes just completed batting practice, 0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:04.879 I had a chance to catch up with Dodgers GM 0:18:04.920 --> 0:18:08.080 Brandon Gomes to get more clarity on the injury to 0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:09.040 Edwin Diaz. 0:18:09.600 --> 0:18:13.200 When performance has been a little fluctuating the way we see, 0:18:13.240 --> 0:18:16.600 it's like, it makes sense that there's stuff going on. 0:18:16.800 --> 0:18:20.080 So yeah, I think it'll create opportunities for other guys. 0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:23.280 The good news is that we expect them back in 0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:27.040 the second half, and this shouldn't, you know, change anything 0:18:27.320 --> 0:18:29.720 going towards the end of the season and into October 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:33.160 when we'll need him and he'll be fresh. 0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:36.480 Yeah, I guess that's a positive way to look at it. 0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:39.720 When Edwin Diaz does return sometime in the second half, 0:18:39.760 --> 0:18:42.919 they will have a fresh Edwin Diaz. They should have 0:18:43.000 --> 0:18:47.479 a fresh Evan Phillips when the Dodgers go down the stretch. 0:18:47.520 --> 0:18:47.760 Run. 0:18:48.080 --> 0:18:50.320 David is brought to by the Ford Maverick Motor Trends 0:18:50.320 --> 0:18:52.640 in North American Truck of the Year. The Ford Maverick 0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:55.040 everything you need in the most innovative truck with forty 0:18:55.080 --> 0:18:58.159 two miles per gallon at the best mr MSRP of 0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:00.800 its category. It's time to see four in a new light. 0:19:01.000 --> 0:19:04.240 Go to your Southern California at four dealers today. All right, David, 0:19:04.359 --> 0:19:06.120 how does this affect the bullpen? 0:19:06.119 --> 0:19:06.239 Now? 0:19:06.240 --> 0:19:08.919 As far as roles are there identified roles? Is it 0:19:09.000 --> 0:19:10.560 closer by committee? What are they gonna do? 0:19:11.720 --> 0:19:11.920 Well? 0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:14.320 The first guy I look for today when I heard 0:19:14.359 --> 0:19:18.639 the news about Edwin Diaz undergoing right elbow surgery was 0:19:18.680 --> 0:19:21.400 Tanner Scott. He was signed to be the Dodger closer 0:19:21.600 --> 0:19:23.639 a year ago, and I asked him what does this 0:19:23.760 --> 0:19:26.560 mean for you? And he said, whenever the phone rings, 0:19:26.600 --> 0:19:29.280 I'll answer it. But nobody has told me that I'm 0:19:29.320 --> 0:19:32.480 the closer or I'm any sort of new defined role. 0:19:32.880 --> 0:19:35.919 So I asked Brandon Gomes as well, whether or not 0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:38.880 he believes the ninth inning is made for everybody. 0:19:39.280 --> 0:19:40.960 I think we have a lot of guys capable of 0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:43.840 pitching in the ninth inning, so I think it is 0:19:44.040 --> 0:19:46.480 I think it is a different three outs, but we 0:19:46.560 --> 0:19:48.840 also have multiple guys that have done it at a 0:19:48.880 --> 0:19:52.000
