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't they printing money.
Speaker 1: The Dodgers just can't continue.
Speaker 4: It's not fair are making plans again.
Speaker 5: It's a singular focus on controlling what they can control.
Speaker 6: Now your pregame host of the World champion La Dodgers,
Speaker 6: Tama Cats.
Speaker 7: Hi, everybody, and welcome in two of my Wrongo Casino
Speaker 7: Dodgers on dech on this Friday afternoon, June the twelfth,
Speaker 7: as you're back to back World Series champion Los Angeles
Speaker 7: Dodgers forty four and twenty five on this season first
Speaker 7: place a top the National League West. There are eight
Speaker 7: games up in the division. After taking two or three
Speaker 7: in Pittsburgh, which could have been a sweep if not
Speaker 7: for a late inning collapse on Wednesday, the Dodgers roachup
Speaker 7: continues now with the start of a three game series
Speaker 7: in Chicago against the first place White Sox.
Speaker 4: Roki Sasaki on the mound.
Speaker 7: First pitch from Raitefield on the south side is coming
Speaker 7: up at four forty between then and now. We got
Speaker 7: a lot to get to here on Morongo Casino, Dodgers
Speaker 7: on Deck, you're gonna hear from the Dodger manager Dave Roberts.
Speaker 7: We'll dive deeper into this pitching matchup. David Vassi goes
Speaker 7: one on what with Aj Prizinski from Fox. We got
Speaker 7: your Dodgers' magical moment. Charlie Steiner will stop by. Kirsten
Speaker 7: Watson will be here in just a little bit. In
Speaker 7: a few minutes, we will head out to the gallpin
Speaker 7: Ford broadcast booth and check in with Tim Neverett and
Speaker 7: Rick Monday.
Speaker 8: Well.
Speaker 7: Last night in Pittsburgh Showhi Otani gave the Dodgers the
Speaker 7: early lead, and then Otani came out of the game. Well,
Speaker 7: Justin Robleski got the start on the mound. He'd pitched
Speaker 7: into the fifth inning, not before giving hip four runs
Speaker 7: on six hits and turning it over to the bullpen
Speaker 7: the rest of the way. Mentioned at Otanium the third inning,
Speaker 7: his second at bat, a solo home run to right
Speaker 7: center field that gave the Dodgers a one nothing lead.
Speaker 7: They weren't done a few batters later still, the third
Speaker 7: Kyle Tucker added to that lead.
Speaker 9: Piz a third Freeman at second once he can get
Speaker 9: a big lead at first, and Tucker lifts one of
Speaker 9: the ear to shadow left. That ball's gonna drop in
Speaker 9: for a hit. Pie Has comes into score Freeman, who
Speaker 9: is on the run on contact right behind him. It's
Speaker 9: a two out, two run single for Kyle Tucker and
Speaker 9: the Dodgers lead it three to nothing.
Speaker 10: You don't have to hit it hard all the time,
Speaker 10: man Tucker followed that lead. It's just a little flair.
Speaker 7: Yeah, Kyle Tucker with the two out flair, giving the
Speaker 7: Dodgers a three to nothing lead, and then the fourth
Speaker 7: Freddie Freeman added another well.
Speaker 9: During this series, the Dodgers have scored twenty three runs
Speaker 9: on twenty nine hits. They've had four home runs. Pitch
Speaker 9: to Freeman, he lines at to left field. That's a
Speaker 9: base hit. Otani will score rounding second on his way
Speaker 9: to third as Piez and Freeman with an RBI base
Speaker 9: hit makes it a four to nothing ball game.
Speaker 10: So we mentioned the said that Freddy Freeman, when he
Speaker 10: is faced killer is nine for eighteen. Will now make
Speaker 10: it ten for nineteen. He's been on base all three times.
Speaker 7: Well, the Dodgers adding one more in the fourth. After
Speaker 7: that Freddie Freeman RBI. That was a wild pitch that
Speaker 7: allowed Andy pott Has to score from third. This is
Speaker 7: the Dodgers scored three to third two more in the fourth.
Speaker 7: They were of five to nothing in cruising until well.
Speaker 7: The wheels fell off for Justin Robleski in that fifth
Speaker 7: inning as the Pirates put up at four spot to
Speaker 7: make it a five to four game. In the seventh,
Speaker 7: the Dodgers would tack on two more. An RBI ground out,
Speaker 7: a wild pitch gave the Dodgers some runs, and a
Speaker 7: satify in the eighth from Miguel Rojas put the Dodgers
Speaker 7: up on top of the Pittsburgh Pirates by a score
Speaker 7: of eight to four. But the Pirates wouldn't go away no.
Speaker 7: In the eighth inning, they tacked on two more in
Speaker 7: the bottom half of that inning to make it an
Speaker 7: eight to six game as the Dodgers, Tanner Scott would
Speaker 7: have to get the final four outs. Three strikeouns looked
Speaker 7: really good coming out of the bullpen as the Dodger
Speaker 7: close it down with an eight to six final. Justin
Speaker 7: Robleski had to leave the game after getting hit by
Speaker 7: a line drive and then an altercation at first base,
Speaker 7: and of course, show Hey Otani had to leave the
Speaker 7: game as well with left knee inflammation. More on that
Speaker 7: coming up here on Dodgers on Deck. He is not
Speaker 7: in the lineup tonight against the Chicago White Sox. Will
Speaker 7: have more coming up in just a couple of minutes.
Speaker 7: With the win, the Dodgers go to forty four and
Speaker 7: twenty five. They now have an eight game lead over
Speaker 7: San Diego and the NL West. And now the roachup
Speaker 7: continues to the south side of Chicago. Rookie Sasaki on
Speaker 7: the mound in the series opener against the first place
Speaker 7: Chicago White Sox. First pitch coming up at four forty
Speaker 7: and with more we head out to the galloping for
Speaker 7: broadcast booth this way, c Good afternoon to Tim Neverett
Speaker 7: and Rick Monday.
Speaker 8: Guys, Tim, thank you very much.
Speaker 9: Beautiful night here in Chicago on the South side at
Speaker 9: Rate Field, where tonight the White Sox will welcome the Dodgers.
Speaker 9: The White Sox have been one of the biggest surprises
Speaker 9: in all of Major League Baseball. They come in tonight
Speaker 9: in first place in them American League Central Division thirty
Speaker 9: six and thirty one, the third best record in.
Speaker 8: The American League.
Speaker 9: Meanwhile, the Dodgers are eight ahead of the San Diego
Speaker 9: Padres in the National League West, forty four and twenty
Speaker 9: five the overall record. The Dodgers have won seven straight
Speaker 9: against the White Sox, holding them to only fourteen runs
Speaker 9: in those seven games, an average of two runs a game.
Speaker 9: But this is a different White Sox team. Will venable
Speaker 9: managing them and they have found their way to the
Speaker 9: top of the standings in the American League Central Division
Speaker 9: more than the White Sox coming up. But the story
Speaker 9: of the day will show Hey Otani play. How is
Speaker 9: his left knee well? The update from the manager he
Speaker 9: says show Hey is fine ish and he will not
Speaker 9: be available tonight. He will not be able to pinch
Speaker 9: hit tonight. They did get some imaging on his left knee.
Speaker 8: It came back.
Speaker 9: Clean, and Dave said that as long as he's fine tomorrow,
Speaker 9: he'll be back in the lineup.
Speaker 10: Well, they're going to work at very cautious obviously, because
Speaker 10: they did not want to lose him for a long
Speaker 10: period of time. So in in his stead would be
Speaker 10: Santiago Espinal, who'll pinch hint for show Hey Otani. Yesterday
Speaker 10: over in Pittsburgh, and that may be the highlight as
Speaker 10: far as Hey, at one time, I actually pinch it
Speaker 10: for show, Hey Otani, So Espinol will be in there.
Speaker 10: The Dodgers kind of adjust their lineup and we see
Speaker 10: Chucky Robinson in the lineup. He will be behind the
Speaker 10: plate doing the catching and batting night for the Dodgers.
Speaker 9: Chucki's got plenty of big league experience. He was with
Speaker 9: the Angels for a little bit. But Robinson's going to
Speaker 9: make his first start this year. Last year came up,
Speaker 9: played in one game, got himself a World Series rank.
Speaker 8: So he's going to get that one game here tonight.
Speaker 10: At least absolutely. And Alice call will be the leadoff
Speaker 10: hitter tonight and the Hippie at the top of the
Speaker 10: order and play in left field. And for rookie Benz,
Speaker 10: you know, this is his thirty fifth game that he's played.
Speaker 10: Of course, missed a lot of time with the oblique.
Speaker 10: We're starting to see some better swings from rookie. It
Speaker 10: is not really translated to a lot of bass hints.
Speaker 10: He did have a bass hit in last Knight's Bowl game.
Speaker 10: Also was robbed of another base hit, which, by the way,
Speaker 10: there were some terrific defensive plays on both sides of
Speaker 10: the field. In that series in Pittsburgh, the Dodgers went
Speaker 10: two out of three, and one thing one advice I
Speaker 10: give don't take the White Sox for granted at all.
Speaker 10: They started off the season six and thirteen, but since
Speaker 10: that time, since the eighteenth of April, they've gone twenty
Speaker 10: nine and seventeen.
Speaker 9: They've had three straight one hundred lost seasons. No team
Speaker 9: has ever made it to the postseason coming off two straight,
Speaker 9: but this White Sox team is on a collision course.
Speaker 8: With the postseason, you know.
Speaker 10: And to somewhat like the Pittsburgh Bymers, they scored a
Speaker 10: lot of runs. They've scored over three hundred three eighteen
Speaker 10: to be exact, Dodgers are three hundred and seventy three
Speaker 10: and if we look at it recently, they've also had
Speaker 10: some pretty good pitching, both in the starters and out
Speaker 10: of the bullpen. So again, the Dodgers have to play
Speaker 10: very good baseball. It was a late arrival last night
Speaker 10: coming in with all the storms. O'Hare Field was actually
Speaker 10: closed down. Dodgers had to get a different airplane, one
Speaker 10: of the two that they flew into into Chicago, so
Speaker 10: didn't get to the hotel until about three o'clock local
Speaker 10: time this morning.
Speaker 8: Rokie Sasaki gets the start. He's three and three.
Speaker 9: Anthony Kay, who was going to pitch last night against Atlanta.
Speaker 8: They were rained out. He's been pushed to today.
Speaker 9: He is five and one, counting you down to the
Speaker 9: first pitch here in Chicago.
Speaker 7: Tim all right, thank you guys, as we count you
Speaker 7: down to first pitch. Dodger fans get that game day
Speaker 7: meal on at Shaky's Pizza Parlor. What are your Shaky Pizza,
Speaker 7: Chicken and Mojo's at Shakey's dot com. We're off and

Speaker 7: matchup in this series opener battle of first place teams.
Speaker 7: First pitch from the south side of Chicago's coming up
Speaker 7: at four to forty.
Speaker 1: This is the Otani rewide.
Speaker 9: Payoff pitch, and Otani swings hits the ball deep to
Speaker 9: right field, heading back toward the wall.
Speaker 1: It is gone right over the wall.
Speaker 4: In right center field.
Speaker 9: Show hey old Tani home run number thirteen and the
Speaker 9: Dodgers get on the board first. It's one nothing on
Speaker 9: a frozen rope. Home run to the right center field
Speaker 9: gap and just over the wall at the three seventy
Speaker 9: five mark.
Speaker 7: Show Hey Otani with his thirteenth home run of the season.
Speaker 7: That solo shot coming in the top half of the
Speaker 7: third inning, and Otani went two for two on base
Speaker 7: twice with a couple of walks. But of course I
Speaker 7: had to leave the game with the left knee inflammation.
Speaker 7: As the Dodgers held on to beat the Buckos yesterday
Speaker 7: and Pittsburgh eight to six.
Speaker 1: This is Kirsten's Corner with Kirston Watson.
Speaker 7: Hey Kirson now joins us from the South Side of Chicago.
Speaker 4: Brought to you by Cars for Kids.
Speaker 7: Dont now Cars for Kids dot org. All right, Kirsten,
Speaker 7: show Hey Otani not in the lineup?
Speaker 4: What is the latest? Yeah, So with shoe Heyotani.
Speaker 11: Last night after the game, Dave Roberts made it clear
Speaker 11: to us that, first of all, when it came to
Speaker 11: that left knee inflammation, he was feeling it more, a
Speaker 11: little bit more behind the knee. Dave had thought maybe
Speaker 11: more hamstring related, but he did have some imaging this
Speaker 11: morning here in Chicago, and that revealed that there's no
Speaker 11: there's nothing to report in regard to the imaging, just
Speaker 11: some more wear and tear on that left knee. Of course,
Speaker 11: that's the knee that he's landing on he's coming down
Speaker 11: the mound. Even when Dave was asked, can you point
Speaker 11: to anything that maybe led to this knee inflammation or
Speaker 11: to bothering him? And they literally they said, he said,
Speaker 11: he talked show Hey and there was nothing to point to.
Speaker 11: So it does it wasn't a move we thought potentially
Speaker 11: it was a move that he made when he was
Speaker 11: attempting to steal second. Obviously we saw him running the bases.
Speaker 11: He was a bit aggressive in the game yesterday, but
Speaker 11: they said it was nothing there. It just kind of
Speaker 11: started bothering him and due to how they were being
Speaker 11: a little bit more preventive and being one step ahead
Speaker 11: at deciding to remove him out of the game, he
Speaker 11: isn't a very good spot. Dave said that if this
Speaker 11: was a game not in the regular season early June
Speaker 11: in Chicago, then if it was a higher stakes game,
Speaker 11: then he would have been in the lineup. So they
Speaker 11: do feel good ultimately as to where he's at, but
Speaker 11: they're going to give him today. Potentially tomorrow that is
Speaker 11: on the table as well. He might be down tomorrow,
Speaker 11: but they're kind of just gonna read and react. But
Speaker 11: as of right now, he's continuing to feel better, which
Speaker 11: is a very good sign.
Speaker 7: That is a great sign, and again it's June the twelfth.
Speaker 7: There's no need to rush back and try to play
Speaker 7: a game tonight. If you're not one hundred percent or
Speaker 7: close to one hundred percent, this is a long season.
Speaker 7: If the Dodgers need to show Hey more than anyed
Speaker 7: anybody else.
Speaker 1: They do.
Speaker 11: And even with that, Dave was saying, you know, they
Speaker 11: feel good about him making his next start, which is
Speaker 11: going to be on Wednesday. And it did come up that,
Speaker 11: you know, shohe of Tani actually did have knee surgery
Speaker 11: back in twenty nineteen. So when he was born, he
Speaker 11: was essentially his kneecap and layman's terms, his kneecap is
Speaker 11: like in two essentially, so they cleaned it up a
Speaker 11: little bit and that is something that naturally could lead
Speaker 11: to wear and tear, that could lead to some inflammation.
Speaker 11: And so Dave he was asked about that and he
Speaker 11: was saying, you know, he didn't hear anything in regard
Speaker 11: pointing to that surgery back in twenty nineteen. So at
Speaker 11: this rate, they're very much just more of this might
Speaker 11: just be the natural wear and tear, and sometimes you
Speaker 11: feel a little inflammation. We all feel here and there.
Speaker 11: So they do feel that this is not something that's
Speaker 11: going to lead to a high concern or anything like that.
Speaker 11: But because like you mentioned, they're so focused on the
Speaker 11: long game that it's more of okay, if you feel something, now,
Speaker 11: let's give him a few days to then allow himself
Speaker 11: just to recover, get some treatment on it and feel better.
Speaker 11: And they have, you know, the opportunity in the depth
Speaker 11: with their lineup. Yes, of course they are down a
Speaker 11: couple of guys. No Will Smith, who's on the il
Speaker 11: A no show Hey. He did say that, if you know,
Speaker 11: for more of the cat and mouse game show Hey
Speaker 11: is technically available off the bench if need be. It
Speaker 11: sounds like they want to stay away from him, but
Speaker 11: they just are more you know, they've got the option.
Speaker 11: So Santiago is in as the DH and then Alex
Speaker 11: call is going to be batting lead off, and we
Speaker 11: know Alex Fall he will do anything in his power
Speaker 11: to get on base. So hopefully the guys behind him
Speaker 11: can help get the offense going.
Speaker 7: No doubt, different looking lineup, hopefully they can continue the
Speaker 7: winning for the Dodgers. Thank you, curious, we'll check out
Speaker 7: with you after the game. Still they come here on
Speaker 7: Moronggo Casino Dodgers on deck. We'll dive deeper into this
Speaker 7: pitching matchup. David Vastego's one on one with A. J.
Speaker 7: Perzenski from Fox, one of the good guys talking baseball
Speaker 7: on a national level will get you an update on
Speaker 7: the injury situation, and we'll hear from the manager himself,
Speaker 7: Dave Roberts. Leading up to Dodgers and White Sox from

Speaker 7: To back World Series Champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 6: This is my raw long Casino Dodgers on Deck on

Speaker 7: Long Long Brogo Casino Dodgers on Deck continues on this
Speaker 7: Friday afternoon as we lead up to Dodgers and White
Speaker 7: Sox from Chicago Morono Casino Resort.
Speaker 4: And in Spa.
Speaker 7: It's a Grand Slam for a good times. Rookie Sasaki
Speaker 7: on the mat, first pitch at four forty.
Speaker 1: It's the LA Dodgers Injury Report.
Speaker 7: Presented by UCLA Healthy, Official medical partner of the Los
Speaker 7: Angeles Dodgers. Showeo Tani not in the lineup with the
Speaker 7: left knee inflammation. We'll here for the managers coming up
Speaker 7: in just a second. Will Smith on the IL with
Speaker 7: the sore neck. Tascar Hernandez, Kiki Hernandez both on the IL.
Speaker 7: Tyler Glastow on the IL at the lower back spasms
Speaker 7: could start throwing soon. Blake Snell in the sixty day
Speaker 7: IL with the loose bodies removed from his elbow. He's
Speaker 7: continuing his throwing progression. Brock Stewart is actually in Ontario
Speaker 7: with the Tower Buzzards on a minor league rehab assignment. Tonight,
Speaker 7: he has scheduled to pitch out of the bullpen. Tommy
Speaker 7: Edmund is with Triple A Oklahoma City. He is on
Speaker 7: track to be activated and play for the first time
Speaker 7: this year on Tuesday when the Dodgers return home.
Speaker 4: All right, let's return to Chicago and check out with
Speaker 4: the Dodgers.
Speaker 7: Skipper questions for Dave Dave, can you just describe Dave?
Speaker 8: Can you talk about the pressure in.
Speaker 1: The dugouts with Dave Roberts.
Speaker 12: He is doing He's doing fine today. I think that
Speaker 12: we got we got some pictures. Uh, there was no findings.
Speaker 12: It's just the normal wear and tear. I thought initially
Speaker 12: it was a hamstring.
Speaker 2: It was the knee.
Speaker 12: So it just kind of got upset, swelled up a
Speaker 12: little bit, and so I think we were kind of
Speaker 12: getting ahead of it smart getting him.
Speaker 2: Out of the game, which I think was prudent.
Speaker 12: And then with the travel, it's just just to give
Speaker 12: him an extra day, and my hope is that he's
Speaker 12: in there tomorrow, but if not, he'll need another day.
Speaker 2: But it's something that I think that we can.
Speaker 12: Manage, uh not an eye situation, and just seeing him today,
Speaker 12: he feels fine ish. But again, just giving him extra
Speaker 12: day is the smart thing to do.
Speaker 11: Do you have a better idea as to when this happened?
Speaker 2: There is no incident, we don't know.
Speaker 12: He doesn't know, and I was like, I asked him
Speaker 12: if it was during the pitching, was it, you know,
Speaker 12: when he was hitting, when he was trying to steal
Speaker 12: a base, and there was no one, you know, incident,
Speaker 12: So I don't know.
Speaker 2: I think that's maybe a good thing.
Speaker 6: Would you say when you say the knee, like, is
Speaker 6: there a specific part of the knee?
Speaker 13: Is it something that is related to the twenty nineteen
Speaker 13: surgery that he had or he said that there.
Speaker 12: Was some soreness in the back and then that's where
Speaker 12: the swelling is at. But that's where a lot of
Speaker 12: the swelling with the knee kind of like builds. But again,
Speaker 12: his range of motion today is good and so if
Speaker 12: it was another you know, time in the season, he'd
Speaker 12: be in there tonight.
Speaker 4: All right, there's a manager, Dave Roberts.
Speaker 7: So it sounds like show hey, O, Tani is okay,
Speaker 7: and it's just now day to day moving forward with
Speaker 7: that inflammation in the left. When we continue here on
Speaker 7: Rogo Casino Dodgers on Deck, we'll get into more with
Speaker 7: David vas as we lead you up to first pitch
Speaker 7: from the South Side of Chicago, Dodgers and White Sox
Speaker 7: on this Friday. I'm Tim Kates is the back to
Speaker 7: back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 6: As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino Dodgers on
Speaker 6: Deck on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 7: Dodgers and White Sox Rookie Sasanki on the Mount Todgers
Speaker 7: Baseball brought to by al Ponto, born in La. Made
Speaker 7: for your game, Dale Poto brings authentic Mexican style tomato sauces,
Speaker 7: salsas and hot sauces.
Speaker 4: Right to your table al Poto Gourmet in a can.
Speaker 1: Joining Tim Kates on Dodgers on Deck, I accept everybody
Speaker 1: for who they are. This is Dodger insider David Basse.
Speaker 4: All right, DV.
Speaker 7: According to Dave Roberts, sounds like they avoided disaster or
Speaker 7: potential problem with his knee and Otawani.
Speaker 5: Yeah, And it seemed like Dave Roberts was unsure where
Speaker 5: the issue was Otani's left knee last night after the game,
Speaker 5: because he said it was in the back of the
Speaker 5: left knee. He thought it was a hamstring issue more
Speaker 5: than a left knee issue. But then again today, as
Speaker 5: you heard him say, now that's where you know, the
Speaker 5: swelling starts to really show itself in the back of
Speaker 5: the left knee. So it is Otani's left knee. And
Speaker 5: I did see video of Otani arriving at raid Field
Speaker 5: in Chicago today and he was not limping. He was
Speaker 5: carrying a carry on type of suitcase, so he was
Speaker 5: all smiles and that's a good sign. But like I
Speaker 5: said last night, Tim, this is the right move. You
Speaker 5: gotta protect O'tani from himself. He's gonna want to be
Speaker 5: in there. And after what we saw him do two
Speaker 5: nights ago, throw one hundred and two pitches, come out
Speaker 5: of the game last night with left knee inflammation, there's
Speaker 5: no reason for a team like the Dodgers that airs
Speaker 5: on the side of caution. With everybody less than Otani,
Speaker 5: don't need to push it with show. Hey, and in fact,
Speaker 5: you know, it might be the right decision not to
Speaker 5: have Otani play any of these games in Chicago, because
Speaker 5: you can't afford to lose Otani for four to six
Speaker 5: weeks for a left knee issue that that knee, his
Speaker 5: kneecap was operated on in twenty nineteen.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it just doesn't make sense. David is brought to
Speaker 7: you by a Ford. They got American values. For American values,
Speaker 7: go to your southern California Ford dealer today for offering
Speaker 7: employee pricing to everyone by for Now dot com.
Speaker 4: Dave Roberts is not going to be in Chicago all weekend.
Speaker 5: Huh, Dave, Yeah, he's not after tomorrow night's game. Tim
Speaker 5: remember earlier this week he told us that he will
Speaker 5: be flying to Palo Alto to attend hit graduation at Stamford,
Speaker 5: which has taking place on Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 12: You know, the job is going to get done with
Speaker 12: it without you, and so for me, I encourage my
Speaker 12: coaches to enjoy, you know, graduations, things like that. One
Speaker 12: of our coaches had to leave for a surgery for
Speaker 12: their daughter, and I it certainly welcome that because there's
Speaker 12: nothing more important than family, and it also I think
Speaker 12: when you get to do moments with your family and
Speaker 12: other things that are really important, I think you do
Speaker 12: your job better and then you feel better about the
Speaker 12: people you work with and.
Speaker 5: For You've done this before with your son, Cole. I'm curious,
Speaker 5: when you're at your daughter's graduation, will you be looking
Speaker 5: at your phone a lot? How are you able to
Speaker 5: be present in the moment.
Speaker 2: That's a great question.
Speaker 12: So I don't know what I did for Cole's graduation,
Speaker 12: but Emmy, it is going to be a day game,
Speaker 12: and I think they are going to overlap, so I
Speaker 12: think I might just try to put my phone down
Speaker 12: be completely present.
Speaker 5: So Dave Roberts will be there where he needs to
Speaker 5: be on Sunday, and he'll rejoin the Dodgers Monday at
Speaker 5: Dodgers Stadium after a Saturday night's game in Chicago.
Speaker 7: Love it all right, David, appreciate what check back you
Speaker 7: with you just a little bit. Coming up here on
Speaker 7: Dodgers on Deck, we'll hear from Charlie Steiner. But up

Speaker 7: Last year, Clayton Kershaw recording his three thousand career strikeout,
Speaker 7: getting White Sox their basement. Vinnie Capra to strike out
Speaker 7: in the top half of this sixth thingning this Hofey
Speaker 7: magical moment brought to by Hoffey hot Dogs, Hoffeye Sokow's
Speaker 7: local treasure for nearly one hundred years. Hofey hot Dogs
Speaker 7: Local and so great. Will we continue here on Dodgers
Speaker 7: on Deck. We want to hear from Charlie Steiner. It
Speaker 7: leads up to Dodgers and White Sox. I'm Tim Kasis,
Speaker 7: the back to back World Series champion Dodgers on you
Speaker 7: a network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino, Dodgers.
Speaker 2: On Tack.
Speaker 1: On your home for the blue all Season Law.
Speaker 7: Kiss the Dodgers and the White Sox from Chicago, Rookie Sasaki,
Speaker 7: Anthony Cather, pitching man Shiptime. Now for the Verizon startup
Speaker 7: is we are thirty five minutes away exactly from the
Speaker 7: start of the game. Now, Varians and you can lock
Speaker 7: in your low price for three years so you can
Speaker 7: save big. Visit your so Cal Verison store today. We
Speaker 7: say hello to Charlie Steiner.
Speaker 14: All right, tim after the Dodgers took two of three
Speaker 14: in Pittsburgh. Tonight is game seventy on the season, the
Speaker 14: first of three with the White Sox, the suddenly very
Speaker 14: good White Sox, the suddenly first place in the American
Speaker 14: League Central Division White Sox at thirty six and thirty one,
Speaker 14: Dodgers with an eight game lead on the Padres, nine and.
Speaker 8: A half over Arizona and Mope.
Speaker 14: I guess the headline story coming into the game, it's no.
Speaker 8: Show, no show, Hey O, Tommy.
Speaker 14: Today Alex call leading off in left field.
Speaker 10: And with the Otani it was the it was the
Speaker 10: hamstring that there was the issue, Dave Roberts saying that
Speaker 10: he didn't really know about it until the sixth inning
Speaker 10: and last night, and they believe it was when Otani
Speaker 10: was maybe trying to take off and steal second base
Speaker 10: in the fourth inning. But you know, they're really cautious
Speaker 10: about what's going to happen. Sotani not in the lineup.
Speaker 10: Alex carlb will be in in left field. He will
Speaker 10: lead things off, and it's going to be Santiago espinhom who,
Speaker 10: by the way, now can claim in his career. He
Speaker 10: actually pinch hit for sho Hey Otani and he'll also
Speaker 10: be the designated hitter tonight.
Speaker 14: So okay, no Otani.
Speaker 8: So what does that mean.
Speaker 14: He's homered in the last two games, in his last
Speaker 14: twenty six games, hitting four to twelve, seven home runs,
Speaker 14: twenty four RBI, is a five away on base percentage
Speaker 14: pitching on the season, he's six and two a one
Speaker 14: point six EER. So he's the most dangerous hitter they've
Speaker 14: got and at the moment, he's the best pitcher that
Speaker 14: they've got.
Speaker 8: Got to be really careful about.
Speaker 10: Him, absolutely, and you know, you bite the bullet on
Speaker 10: the on the cautious side to begin with, rather than
Speaker 10: to leave him in there, even if it's kind of
Speaker 10: iffy fifty to fifty, because if you re injured or
Speaker 10: injured even more now you're talking about a longer time
Speaker 10: span that you would be lost, and that the Dodgers
Speaker 10: obviously do not want to do that at all, don't
Speaker 10: even want to approach that subject. So they're going to
Speaker 10: be very very cautious about it, no reason not to be.
Speaker 10: And for this Dodger bone club, I'm going to take
Speaker 10: the same position here in Chicago as they did in
Speaker 10: Pittsburgh when I said, do not take the Pirates lightly.
Speaker 10: They score a lot of runs. Well, obviously with the
Speaker 10: numbers you're talking about. With the Chicago White Sox leading
Speaker 10: their division, do not take them lightly because right now
Speaker 10: they are feeling their roads and for very good reason,
Speaker 10: including the fact there's only one team in baseball that
Speaker 10: has a better home record than the Chicago White Sox.
Speaker 10: That's Tampa and the White Sox have gone twenty two
Speaker 10: at eleven here in their home ballpark.
Speaker 14: They're won seven in a row at home and eighteen
Speaker 14: of their last twenty one at home. You know, here
Speaker 14: are the White Sox thirty six and thirty one.
Speaker 8: They're no longer a pushover. They're a good young team.
Speaker 14: Very anxious to see how they play over this three
Speaker 14: game series.
Speaker 10: And Charlie, how about the fact they both trained in
Speaker 10: the same facilities in Glendale, Arizona. Came a back raune
Speaker 10: Glendale and for the White Sox trying to make Major
Speaker 10: League Baseball history. No team has ever made the postseason
Speaker 10: after even two consecutive one hundred plus lost seasons, and
Speaker 10: for the White Sox it's been the last three so
Speaker 10: as it stands, right now it's the first place White
Speaker 10: Sox against the first place Dodgers.
Speaker 14: And tonight's pitching matchup Roki Sasaki, who has turned things
Speaker 14: around his last couple of outings against Anthony K. Sasaki's
Speaker 14: last start last Friday, no runs two, hit the career
Speaker 14: high ten strikeouts.
Speaker 8: Down in Anaheim, and in his.
Speaker 14: Last four starts he's two to zero and a one
Speaker 14: forty eight er. He has found evidently what he had
Speaker 14: lost the early part of the season.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 10: Absolutely, I could be a soon to watch what happens
Speaker 10: tonight because with the rain and you know, O'Hare Field
Speaker 10: was closed trying to come into Chicago, so it was
Speaker 10: a late departure out of Pittsburgh, could not land. They
Speaker 10: had to get a different airplane because the plane they
Speaker 10: were going to fly on was going to leave from
Speaker 10: O'Hare field. Well, that didn't get airborne. They had so
Speaker 10: substitute that. So they didn't check into a hotel until
Speaker 10: about three am local time. And you know, this is
Speaker 10: a family trip, so we'll see how well rest of
Speaker 10: the troops are. They're raring to go, hopefully.
Speaker 14: Talk about the last three years. Over the last three years,
Speaker 14: the Dodgers won two hundred and ninety one and one
Speaker 14: hundred and ninety five, nearly one hundred games. Over five
Speaker 14: hundred in the last three years, the White Sox had
Speaker 14: found one hundred and sixty two and three hundred and
Speaker 14: twenty four.
Speaker 8: Yet here they are early in.
Speaker 14: The season, a little past a third of the way
Speaker 14: through it, and they're in first place, a half a
Speaker 14: game in front of the Cleveland Guardians. Anthony Cape five
Speaker 14: and one four point four to oho Era is going.
Speaker 2: For the White Sox tonight.
Speaker 10: We're gonna find out what happens. Because one of the
Speaker 10: things that Kay has been able to do, he's undefeated
Speaker 10: at home. We'll find out how he's going to work.
Speaker 10: Here's the thing that's really weird. Ka has hit ten
Speaker 10: batters already this season. Dodgers thinking about crowding the plate
Speaker 10: a little bit more. We'll find out.
Speaker 14: Puck a love So it's the Dodgers in the White Sox,
Speaker 14: a rematch of the nineteen fifty nine World Series, when
Speaker 14: the Dodgers, behind Larry Sherry, beat the White Sox to
Speaker 14: win the World Series.
Speaker 1: That was then.
Speaker 14: This is now game one of the three game series
Speaker 14: coming up.
Speaker 4: Tim all right, thank you, Charlie.

Speaker 7: former catcher now analysts for Fox.

Speaker 7: Dodgers and White Sox from the South Side of Chicago.
Speaker 7: I'm Tim Kass, the back to back World Series champion
Speaker 7: Dodgers Audio.
Speaker 10: Now.
Speaker 6: As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino, Dodgers on
Speaker 6: Deck on the official home of LA Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 7: Dodgers and White Sox from Chicago. Rookie Sasaki, Anthony k
Speaker 7: the pitching matchable dev deepen to the numbers coming up.
Speaker 7: Dodgers Baseball is brought to you by Shaky's Pizza Parlor,
Speaker 7: the official pizza partner of the Dodgers audio broadcast.
Speaker 4: When it's game night, it's Group Knight at Shakey's dot Com.
Speaker 1: And now what will likely be vast a fielding insults
Speaker 1: from a Dodger player it's an engagement of endearment. This
Speaker 1: is high and tight.
Speaker 5: We're joined right now by a man that you see
Speaker 5: on Fox Sports and you also see on foul Territory
Speaker 5: ten to noon Pacific time during the week days. He's
Speaker 5: a World Series catcher, and he certainly has a lot
Speaker 5: of experience with a few different teams during his nineteen
Speaker 5: Major League six And that's the one and only Aj Perzinski. AJ,
Speaker 5: thanks a lot for the time, appreciate it.
Speaker 13: No, probably happy to be on you know, since I
Speaker 13: saw you in Milwaukee. I hope you've gotten better because
Speaker 13: you really suck to doing poll tabs.
Speaker 8: I know, right Who know?
Speaker 5: Aj Prasinski and I could bond in Milwaukee just being
Speaker 5: able to try to get some poll tabs, which are
Speaker 5: essentially traps of baseball cards and lottery tickets combined into one, right, Aj.
Speaker 13: Exactly, I don't think you have to be from the Midwest,
Speaker 13: even though what a pull tab is, I think I
Speaker 13: think that might be the only place where we have them.
Speaker 13: But yeah, so basically, like an instant scratch off lottery
Speaker 13: ticket that you pay like a dollar for and you
Speaker 13: win nothing out of by like fifty of them, you
Speaker 13: win like zero dollars.
Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly, instead of looking at your phone, you're pulling
Speaker 5: these tabs and you're coming up with nothing.
Speaker 13: Exactly.
Speaker 1: But they're fun.
Speaker 13: They're fun. They are fun.
Speaker 5: I'll say that they were fun and you got you
Speaker 5: got to see the Dodgers in Milwaukee and obviously keep
Speaker 5: tabs on. Are the Braves the only team that could
Speaker 5: possibly stop the Dodgers at this point in October?
Speaker 1: No, I don't think so.
Speaker 13: I think most of the Dodgers are still the best
Speaker 13: seam going. But I think the Phillies now with their
Speaker 13: starting pitcher on Christopher Sanchez, Zach Wheeler, Aaron Nola, pass
Speaker 13: Soizardo and the back end of Duran and the rest
Speaker 13: of that back end Brad Keller, are healthy in their
Speaker 13: lineup because they can hit homers and they have guys
Speaker 13: that have been there. I think the Phillies are a threat.
Speaker 13: I think the Brewers are a threat. I think if
Speaker 13: the Brewers can go out and find one more pitcher. Listen,
Speaker 13: you have Mizz and Kyle Harrison going. That's pretty good
Speaker 13: one two punches. The back end of their bullpen with
Speaker 13: the Reve and McGill and some of their other guys,
Speaker 13: they mix the matches great, But if they can go
Speaker 13: out and find a hitter, a legitimate hitter. And this
Speaker 13: is not a knock on Bryce Terrang and Christian Yelich
Speaker 13: and some of the other guys that they have William Contreres.
Speaker 13: But if they can go out and find a hitter,
Speaker 13: and when I say hitter, I mean a guy that
Speaker 13: is a force, like I don't know who that could be,
Speaker 13: but if they could find a guy that is an
Speaker 13: absolute force where the Dodgers or any other team goes man,
Speaker 13: we got a really game plan for this guy because
Speaker 13: he could at any point can hit a homer against
Speaker 13: us and change his game. I think they could be
Speaker 13: dangerous just because Pat Murphy knows how to handle his team.
Speaker 13: He knows how to mix a match with the best
Speaker 13: of them. So there are other teams in the American
Speaker 13: in the National League that could derail the Dodgers. And
Speaker 13: let's not forget the Dodgers for the last few years
Speaker 13: have been considered the greatest team in history in there
Speaker 13: about four inches away from losing the World Series last year.
Speaker 13: So it is possible. Is it likely? I don't think so,
Speaker 13: but it is possible.
Speaker 5: AJ you had a lot of stops in your career.
Speaker 5: One of them was in Atlanta while Freddie Freeman was
Speaker 5: playing there. What was your experience as a teammate with
Speaker 5: Freddie Freeman and did you ever believe that he would
Speaker 5: be going strong at age thirty six? Did you see
Speaker 5: that when you were playing in Atlanta?
Speaker 13: Fredy Freeman was the monster back then and a great
Speaker 13: I mean you guys, Dodger fans have gotten to know
Speaker 13: what a great person. Pretty. Yes, there was never a
Speaker 13: doubt Freddy was always special. I mean every coach I
Speaker 13: talked to that knew Freddy. I knew the hitting coach
Speaker 13: for the Braves before I got there. He told me
Speaker 13: all about it.
Speaker 2: He's like, this guy's a monster.
Speaker 13: This is like two thousand, a couple of years before
Speaker 13: I even went and played there. He's like, you got
Speaker 13: to see this guy and what he can do with
Speaker 13: the bat. And then when I got to play with
Speaker 13: him and see it on the first hand basis, it
Speaker 13: only it only made it more. It just amplified it
Speaker 13: even more to a point where I'm like, man, this
Speaker 13: guy really is special. Getting to play with him for
Speaker 13: two years, seeing him on a daily basis, the way
Speaker 13: he goes about his work, it has not surprised me
Speaker 13: at all that he's got a chance to get three
Speaker 13: thousand hits. And you know, the one thing about Freddy
Speaker 13: that was so funny is that when I when I
Speaker 13: played with Freddy, all he cared about was he just said,
Speaker 13: I'm like, Freddie Man, you're going to go to the
Speaker 13: Hall of Fame probably one day with it you as
Speaker 13: good as you are.
Speaker 8: And he would laugh.
Speaker 13: He goes, you know what all I want is one ring.
Speaker 13: He's like, you have a ring. I don't have a ring.
Speaker 13: I haven't come closed at the time in Atlanta at
Speaker 13: getting a ring because we weren't very good. And now
Speaker 13: I look at Freddy and I'm like, Freddie, you got
Speaker 13: like ten rings.
Speaker 1: Dude.
Speaker 13: It feels like I feel like you're winning the ring
Speaker 13: every year. So one thing about Freddy is Freddie wanted
Speaker 13: to win all times and he's kind of proven out
Speaker 13: the way. He'll play through paying, he'll play injured, and
Speaker 13: it just shows up every day wanting to make his
Speaker 13: team better. And that is a big thing for Freddie Freeman.
Speaker 5: No doubt, and he always is. Aj Prasinski is our guest.
Speaker 5: All right, you have a strong connection to the White Sox.
Speaker 5: What can you tell us about the change in Miguel Vargas.
Speaker 5: Everybody knows about Miguel Vargas being one of those hyped
Speaker 5: up prospects. And the trade that the Dodgers made with
Speaker 5: the Cardinals and White Sox seem to have paid off
Speaker 5: for the Dodgers and White Sox more than the Cardinals.
Speaker 5: So it wasn't even trade. But how has Miguel Vargas
Speaker 5: come into his own? Did you see this coming?
Speaker 13: I don't know. I mean, I think the biggest thing
Speaker 13: that happened to Miguel Vargas is he went to a
Speaker 13: place in Chicago where he gets to play every day. Right,
Speaker 13: you got to find a place who can get to
Speaker 13: play and you get to develop In LA. That wasn't
Speaker 13: going to happen because they were trying to win World Series.
Speaker 13: They're trying to do all these special things, which obviously
Speaker 13: they're doing. But you got to trade into Chicago. Listen,
Speaker 13: say what you want about LA. There's a little more
Speaker 13: pressure on your trying to win, and there is in
Speaker 13: Chicago when you're losing one hundred and twenty games. So
Speaker 13: what it allowed for the Gov Martins to do is
Speaker 13: he made some adjustments in the swing He didn't have
Speaker 13: to go up there saying, man, I want to, I
Speaker 13: want to.
Speaker 2: I got to get a.
Speaker 13: Hit because I want to play tomorrow, right, So if
Speaker 13: I don't get a hit, that I'm not going to
Speaker 13: play and then I'm gonna get platoons and I'm gonna
Speaker 13: have to do this.
Speaker 8: I'm gonna to do that.
Speaker 13: Chicago, they're like, hey, just go out and play every day.
Speaker 13: It makes some adjustments and learn from it, and that's
Speaker 13: been a good thing. Some players need that and then
Speaker 13: they find themselves after a couple of years. Not everyone
Speaker 13: is ready the day they get to the big leagues.
Speaker 13: You have to make that adjustment. But go Martins has
Speaker 13: turned him into a heck of a player, and he's
Speaker 13: got a chance to do something that hasn't happened in
Speaker 13: like ninety years, and that to be a starting third
Speaker 13: baseman from the Chicago White Tux in an All Star Game.
Speaker 8: And if you would have told.
Speaker 13: Dodgers fans out a couple of years ago, they have
Speaker 13: said no chance. Even maybe White Tauks fans.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, Aj.
Speaker 5: And could you imagine Max Munsey's starting at third base
Speaker 5: for the National League and Vargas starting for the American
Speaker 5: League in the All Star Game.
Speaker 2: That would be pretty cool. Yeah.
Speaker 13: Well, I love Max, so I hope Max gets every
Speaker 13: everything he can get.
Speaker 8: He's one of my he's.
Speaker 13: One of our favorite guests on foul Territory. He's awesome.
Speaker 13: I love Max to death and I wanted to of
Speaker 13: course I want.
Speaker 2: Him to start.
Speaker 8: Of course you do.
Speaker 5: He's a connection to foul Territory. AJ Prasinski World Series Champion,
Speaker 5: All Star, nineteen year Major leaguer, and you could see
Speaker 5: that backwards hat in that beautiful beard. Tend to noon
Speaker 5: Monday through Friday on foul Territory.

Speaker 7: offseason with the White Sox.
Speaker 4: Has been really good.
Speaker 7: Making his twelve start this year, he throws a slurve,
Speaker 7: a forcing fastball, sinker, and occasional changeup. He has recorded
Speaker 7: a career high and wins this year start, strikeouts, innings
Speaker 7: pitched while posting a career best for forty erra this season,
Speaker 7: he is four to zero with a three twenty two
Speaker 7: ERRA and thirty one strikeouts. Over his last seven starts,
Speaker 7: he has held left handed hitters to a one to
Speaker 7: fifty five average compared to a three hundred average against
Speaker 7: right handed hitters. Tonight is his first career starts against
Speaker 7: the Dodgers. Rookie Sasaki on the mound for the Dodgers
Speaker 7: three in three to four h three ERA. Twenty four
Speaker 7: year old right hander making his twelve start this season.
Speaker 7: Last time out, Sasaki shut down the Angels last Friday
Speaker 7: in his first career scoreless start, delivering seven innings and
Speaker 7: giving hip just two hits while striking out a career
Speaker 7: high ten, but got a no decision out of that.
Speaker 7: Before that, outing five and a thirty innings, one run,
Speaker 7: three hits, seven strikeouts in a no decision against the Phillies.
Speaker 7: Rookie Sasaki the last month has been really good. His
Speaker 7: last four starts, Sasaki a one forty eight RA, twenty
Speaker 7: nine strikeouts, only five walks combined, and in a two
Speaker 7: to zero record while limiting the opposition to a one
Speaker 7: fifty three batting average. More of that police, He's facing

Speaker 4: Keys to the game are next.
Speaker 7: I'm Tim Kason's the back to back World Series champion
Speaker 7: Dogers your network.
Speaker 6: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on tack.
Speaker 1: On your home for the blue All season.
Speaker 4: Long Dodgers Road Chick continues.
Speaker 7: After taking two of three in Pittsburgh against the Pirates,
Speaker 7: the Dodgers now head to the south side of Chicago
Speaker 7: for a three game interleague series against the White Sox.
Speaker 7: As the Dodgers going to action tonight first place stop
Speaker 7: the NL West White Sox going to play first place
Speaker 7: atop the Al Central. As we get you ready for
Speaker 7: the start of the game. Brought to you by Sapporo Beer.
Speaker 7: Great Moments start with Sapporo Beer. Whatever your taste preference,

Speaker 7: Good Wi Sushi, Great with Baseball. Back out to the
Speaker 7: booth one final time, Tim never Rickmondy guys.
Speaker 9: Thanks again, Tim as we look forward to this ballgame
Speaker 9: here tonight at Rate Field in Chicago.
Speaker 8: It's going to be a beautiful night for a ballgame here.
Speaker 9: Roki Sasaki seems to have figured some things out, and
Speaker 9: his last four starts he's two and oh with a
Speaker 9: one forty eight ERA.
Speaker 8: He has been really really.
Speaker 10: Good lately, and the last start that was on Friday
Speaker 10: against the Angels, and that may be his best outing
Speaker 10: only two hit, seven scoreless innings, struck out a career
Speaker 10: high ten batters in for Rokie Sasaki, I think part
Speaker 10: of the puzzle, it looks like he's maybe sold. If
Speaker 10: he gets ahead in the count, it's a one thirty
Speaker 10: eight batting average against. That's what he did on Friday,
Speaker 10: That's what he's done the last four starts. But when
Speaker 10: he falls behind in the count, it's a three eighty
Speaker 10: one batting average against. So yeah, throw strikes, get ahead.
Speaker 9: Anthony Kay was supposed to pitch against the Braves last night,
Speaker 9: been pushed ahead today with the rainout that the White
Speaker 9: Sox had with Atlanta. Last pitched on Friday against Philadelphia,
Speaker 9: got a no decision. He allowed six runs in four innings.
Speaker 9: He's looking for a bit of a bounce back.
Speaker 10: Tim, He's kind of strange also from a standpoint runners
Speaker 10: in scoring position. He's really been good, only a one
Speaker 10: eighty two batting average against right handed hitters, have hit
Speaker 10: three hundred for the season. They've hit nine to the
Speaker 10: ten home runs off of off of k. But the
Speaker 10: thing that really sticks out for me is puzzling. He's
Speaker 10: already hit ten batters already, he's hit ten, So be
Speaker 10: careful in the batter's box that crowd the plate.
Speaker 8: Maybe not.
Speaker 9: It's a battle of two first place teams in the
Speaker 9: beginning of an interleague series here in Chicago, the Dodgers
Speaker 9: and White Sox coming right up, Tim.
Speaker 7: All right, Dodgers, as we said, going to play first
Speaker 7: place atop the nl wes. Dodgers start the night eight
Speaker 7: games up over the San Diego Padres, nine and a
Speaker 7: half games up over the Arizona Dimebacks. Diamondbacks in action
Speaker 7: right now in Cincinnati, taken on the Reds of that
