WEBVTT - Chris Taylor (6-8-26)

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Forget about the twenty six Dodgers. We care about a

0:00:03.080 --> 0:00:05.800
<v Speaker 1>man that left it all on the field for the

0:00:05.840 --> 0:00:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers from the moment he was traded here in June

0:00:08.960 --> 0:00:13.040
<v Speaker 1>of twenty sixteen until the night that the Dodgers say

0:00:13.119 --> 0:00:16.319
<v Speaker 1>goodbye to Chris Taylor in twenty twenty four. A man

0:00:16.360 --> 0:00:20.959
<v Speaker 1>that was the co NLCS MVP in twenty seventeen. A

0:00:21.120 --> 0:00:24.680
<v Speaker 1>man that made one of the greatest catches in NLCS

0:00:24.720 --> 0:00:28.200
<v Speaker 1>history in twenty eighteen. A man that was an All

0:00:28.240 --> 0:00:31.920
<v Speaker 1>Star in twenty twenty one and had a walk off

0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:35.800
<v Speaker 1>wild card home run for the Dodgers. That is the

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:40.879
<v Speaker 1>one and only fan favorite CT three, Chris Taylor. Chris,

0:00:41.200 --> 0:00:44.479
<v Speaker 1>thanks a lot for coming on the show and congratulations

0:00:44.479 --> 0:00:45.360
<v Speaker 1>on a great career.

0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:49.400
<v Speaker 2>Thanks Versa. That's a very nice intro. I appreciate it.

0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:52.200
<v Speaker 1>Hey, I wish I could go on and on, Chris,

0:00:52.240 --> 0:00:57.080
<v Speaker 1>But I mean, the fans certainly have showed their outpouring

0:00:57.120 --> 0:01:00.360
<v Speaker 1>of support for you. Were you surprised that you got

0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:06.559
<v Speaker 1>as much attention as you did about your retirement? Uh?

0:01:06.640 --> 0:01:11.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Honestly, the way it all went down was kind

0:01:11.040 --> 0:01:17.800
<v Speaker 2>of strange. I didn't I wasn't anticipating making it public,

0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:22.360
<v Speaker 2>and then it ended up getting leaked, I guess, and

0:01:23.720 --> 0:01:28.360
<v Speaker 2>then and then people thought I was unretiring, and it

0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:30.920
<v Speaker 2>was like kind of embarrassing. So then I was like, Okay,

0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:35.360
<v Speaker 2>now I have to say something. But no, it was

0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:40.280
<v Speaker 2>all fine. It was It was cool after I made

0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:44.480
<v Speaker 2>the post or after it came out, seeing all the support.

0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:49.240
<v Speaker 2>I got a lot of very nice texts, and yeah,

0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 2>it's cool to uh to see all the love, especially

0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:59.920
<v Speaker 2>from Dodgers stands obviously playing almost ten years with them

0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:03.240
<v Speaker 2>and you know, still I still think they're the best

0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 2>fans in baseball, and yeah, it's it always feels good

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:10.160
<v Speaker 2>to know that you were appreciated.

0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:15.520
<v Speaker 1>So there was no retiring unretiring. It was just some

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:18.840
<v Speaker 1>members of the media jumping the gun a little bit

0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:19.600
<v Speaker 1>too fast.

0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:25.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's kind of a weird way it happened. I mean,

0:02:25.720 --> 0:02:29.240
<v Speaker 2>long story short, I kind of told I was at

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:31.280
<v Speaker 2>the fault like these at the time, I kind of

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:33.920
<v Speaker 2>told them that I was done. I got hit by

0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:37.760
<v Speaker 2>a pitch and fractured my arm. First. I don't think

0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:40.799
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people know that, but I told them

0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:44.400
<v Speaker 2>that I was going to probably that's it for me.

0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:47.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to go home with my family and then

0:02:48.639 --> 0:02:55.079
<v Speaker 2>so I, you know, signed the papers and I think

0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:59.080
<v Speaker 2>it was voluntary retirement. And then so that was the transaction,

0:03:00.360 --> 0:03:06.480
<v Speaker 2>and that got released right away. And then when we

0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:12.799
<v Speaker 2>had it switched to the IL, you know, just to

0:03:12.880 --> 0:03:14.880
<v Speaker 2>try to keep it under wraps a little bit, but

0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:16.960
<v Speaker 2>it was too late at that point. And then when

0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:20.480
<v Speaker 2>I got switched, people thought I unretired and was coming back.

0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:23.320
<v Speaker 2>It was very strange.

0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Yes, and I know you don't love attention, and it's

0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:29.840
<v Speaker 1>never and it never has been about you, but I

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:33.120
<v Speaker 1>feel like you never really fully understood how much you

0:03:33.200 --> 0:03:36.560
<v Speaker 1>meant to your teammates into your fans. Do you understand

0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:39.720
<v Speaker 1>that a little bit more now? Yeah?

0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:45.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean I always knew the Dogger fans are always great.

0:03:45.480 --> 0:03:48.160
<v Speaker 2>They were always very supportive, and I always felt loved there.

0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:51.880
<v Speaker 2>You know, obviously I had some tough years towards the end,

0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 2>but you know, I always felt like the fans. You know,

0:03:59.040 --> 0:04:03.640
<v Speaker 2>there's always going to be some a mix of especially

0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:08.600
<v Speaker 2>when you're struggling, but I felt like the the there

0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:11.520
<v Speaker 2>was plenty of loyal doctor fans that still supported me

0:04:11.560 --> 0:04:13.920
<v Speaker 2>even through my struggles, and I really appreciated that.

0:04:14.920 --> 0:04:18.320
<v Speaker 1>No doubt, they always will when you look back at

0:04:18.360 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 1>your career. I don't know if you've had a chance

0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:23.000
<v Speaker 1>to reflect. Have you had a chance to reflect on

0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:24.760
<v Speaker 1>your career? Is it still too soon?

0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:30.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's still kind of like I don't think it's

0:04:30.480 --> 0:04:34.159
<v Speaker 2>fully hit me, you know. Right now, I'm just like

0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:37.039
<v Speaker 2>kind of enjoying being home. I was away from my

0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:41.479
<v Speaker 2>family for two months, you know, which was really tough

0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:45.360
<v Speaker 2>in and Salt Lake, Utah. And my family was here

0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:50.200
<v Speaker 2>in Manhattan Beach. I was flying back home every Sunday

0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:53.680
<v Speaker 2>night after our games for our off day on Monday,

0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:55.719
<v Speaker 2>and then meeting back up with a team on Tuesday,

0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:59.520
<v Speaker 2>and you know, just to try to be here as

0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:01.719
<v Speaker 2>much a I could with them while I was playing

0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:06.679
<v Speaker 2>in Triple A. And that was just a really tough

0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:11.719
<v Speaker 2>two months stretch. And for me obviously being away, and

0:05:11.760 --> 0:05:16.359
<v Speaker 2>then for my family and my wife kind of basically

0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:18.080
<v Speaker 2>be in a single mom for two months, I was

0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:24.400
<v Speaker 2>a grind. And so now I'm just kind of enjoying

0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:29.000
<v Speaker 2>being a full time dad, stay at home dad, spending

0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:31.440
<v Speaker 2>time with my family. We're going to do some things

0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:33.520
<v Speaker 2>we've never gotten an opportunity to do. We're going to

0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:40.159
<v Speaker 2>do some traveling and uh yeah, so I don't think

0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:45.440
<v Speaker 2>I've really fully reflected on it. But when the news

0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:48.039
<v Speaker 2>of the retirement came out, you know, I saw the

0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:49.719
<v Speaker 2>love and support, so that was really cool.

0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:53.600
<v Speaker 1>Chris Taylor is our guest, a man that will never

0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:56.480
<v Speaker 1>be forgotten in Dodger history. And can you believe that

0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:59.560
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers are in Pittsburgh right now? Chris? And what do

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:03.159
<v Speaker 1>you remember remember about your first day in Pittsburgh wearing

0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:07.359
<v Speaker 1>a Dodger uniform?

0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:11.080
<v Speaker 2>That was my first game as a Dodger. I think

0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 2>it was yeah, yeah, very cool. I think I remember

0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:25.440
<v Speaker 2>coming to the Dodgers and expecting to be way more

0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:30.159
<v Speaker 2>nervous and than I was with the Mariners, just because

0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:34.479
<v Speaker 2>it's the Dodgers. You know, It's like bigger stage, more fans,

0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:40.120
<v Speaker 2>more publicity, higher expectation, all of the above. And it

0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:44.520
<v Speaker 2>was funny when I got there and stepped into the clubhouse.

0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:47.080
<v Speaker 2>And I think that's part of what makes the Dodgers

0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:51.040
<v Speaker 2>so good was I wasn't very nervous at all. I

0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:55.560
<v Speaker 2>was very comfortable. They do a great job of like

0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:59.560
<v Speaker 2>letting all their players know like, you're here for a reason,

0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:03.200
<v Speaker 2>we want you to be the best version of yourself

0:07:04.200 --> 0:07:09.560
<v Speaker 2>and there's no fear of failure. I feel like there's

0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:16.880
<v Speaker 2>no hesitation. They want you to play aggressive, and you know,

0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:20.360
<v Speaker 2>I felt that, and I thought that was a big reason.

0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:23.440
<v Speaker 2>It kind of brought out the best in me, where

0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:27.480
<v Speaker 2>in the past I might have put too much pressure

0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 2>on myself, or prior to that, I might have put

0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:34.080
<v Speaker 2>too much pressure on myself and played a little nervous

0:07:34.200 --> 0:07:37.280
<v Speaker 2>or whatever it is, which would be common for many

0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:39.160
<v Speaker 2>young players in the big leagues. And I think the

0:07:39.240 --> 0:07:43.360
<v Speaker 2>doctors do a great job of letting their young guys

0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:48.240
<v Speaker 2>specifically be comfortable in their own skin and do what

0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:49.000
<v Speaker 2>got them there.

0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:52.560
<v Speaker 1>Chris, I never asked you this, since we were always

0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:54.560
<v Speaker 1>in the moment, and I didn't never wanted to put

0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:57.080
<v Speaker 1>you on the spot more than I than I did.

0:07:57.160 --> 0:08:00.360
<v Speaker 1>But you had a lot of close team mates, a

0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:03.520
<v Speaker 1>lot of great teammates. Uh what bonds did you form

0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:07.680
<v Speaker 1>with those guys? And how how close are you still

0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:10.600
<v Speaker 1>with the guys from that played with you from twenty

0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:12.560
<v Speaker 1>seventeen to like twenty twenty.

0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:19.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, extremely close. I think those those years you just mentioned,

0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:22.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, those are some of my that core group

0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:25.800
<v Speaker 2>of guys, those are some of my best friends. Those

0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:35.160
<v Speaker 2>are probably. Uh, to me, my closest teammates and guys

0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:39.800
<v Speaker 2>that I keep in touch with, you know, guys that

0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:46.680
<v Speaker 2>were at my wedding. You know, my wife is great

0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 2>friends with their wives. So yeah, it's uh, it was

0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:54.880
<v Speaker 2>a very close group, and you know that that's not

0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:56.400
<v Speaker 2>gonna change now that I'm done playing.

0:08:57.480 --> 0:08:59.520
<v Speaker 1>Did Cory Seger text you. I heard he's not a

0:08:59.600 --> 0:09:00.480
<v Speaker 1>very good Texter.

0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:05.040
<v Speaker 2>Me and Corey are both very similar in that way,

0:09:05.080 --> 0:09:07.480
<v Speaker 2>But he did, he did send me attack.

0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, my dream is one day to have a reunion

0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:14.600
<v Speaker 1>with the twenty seventeen Dodgers for obvious reasons.

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:18.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that was a that was a special group. I

0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:23.800
<v Speaker 2>still think that might have been the best team I

0:09:23.840 --> 0:09:25.640
<v Speaker 2>ever played on, even though we never won.

0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:29.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you guys were You guys were on another level

0:09:29.679 --> 0:09:32.839
<v Speaker 1>that year. And do you remember the feeling you had

0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:35.280
<v Speaker 1>when you hit that lead off home run in Game

0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:37.480
<v Speaker 1>one of the World Series at Dodger Stadium.

0:09:38.800 --> 0:09:44.400
<v Speaker 2>Uh kind of. I've always said, like those big moments

0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:49.640
<v Speaker 2>for me, I sort of blackout. But I think there

0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:54.079
<v Speaker 2>was definitely some shock. You know, that entire year was

0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:56.160
<v Speaker 2>a bit of a shock for me to go from

0:09:57.640 --> 0:10:01.040
<v Speaker 2>what I had where I was before for that, and

0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:05.280
<v Speaker 2>then you know how the best year of my career

0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:09.559
<v Speaker 2>and the biggest moments sign the World Series and LCS

0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:12.360
<v Speaker 2>MVP is just like all these things. It didn't it

0:10:12.440 --> 0:10:13.520
<v Speaker 2>felt very surreal.

0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:17.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's weird, I you know how nostalgic I get,

0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:20.200
<v Speaker 1>but rightfully so. You had so many great moments. The

0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:23.960
<v Speaker 1>team gave us so many great moments that Dodger fans

0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:27.120
<v Speaker 1>hadn't had in so many years. The team was just

0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:30.079
<v Speaker 1>in Milwaukee, and no, I'm not talking about the slide.

0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:30.360
<v Speaker 2>I was.

0:10:30.679 --> 0:10:33.240
<v Speaker 1>I was looking at the leftfield wall, Cetea, and I

0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:36.760
<v Speaker 1>was just envisioning you taking that route to catch that

0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:40.720
<v Speaker 1>fly ball in Game seven of the eighteen NLCS. That's

0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:45.080
<v Speaker 1>the only thing I think about when I go to Milwaukee.

0:10:45.720 --> 0:10:51.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that I mean definitely maybe my biggest probably definitely

0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:58.680
<v Speaker 2>my biggest defensive moment of my career. And just I

0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:03.280
<v Speaker 2>think as a player, when you look back at everything,

0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:10.960
<v Speaker 2>those moments, moments like that at the biggest stage, you know,

0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:13.800
<v Speaker 2>that's why you play the game. That's that's what you

0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:16.760
<v Speaker 2>do it for. All the hard work, all the failure,

0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:20.560
<v Speaker 2>like all the the low points, that's all worth it

0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:21.679
<v Speaker 2>because of moments like that.

0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:24.920
<v Speaker 1>My other memory of view CT is after you hit

0:11:24.960 --> 0:11:28.640
<v Speaker 1>the walk off home run against the Cardinals in the

0:11:28.679 --> 0:11:32.199
<v Speaker 1>twenty one wildcard game. If you fast forward after the

0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:36.720
<v Speaker 1>NLDS and beating the Giants, at some point we were

0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:40.520
<v Speaker 1>flying back to Atlanta maybe for Game six, and you

0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:42.959
<v Speaker 1>were sitting in one of those first class seats and

0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:47.280
<v Speaker 1>you were you just look really really drained, like you

0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:50.320
<v Speaker 1>had given everything at that point in time for one

0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:53.480
<v Speaker 1>hundred and six win team. It just seemed like such

0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:56.079
<v Speaker 1>a grind for you guys to get to the NLCS

0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:57.400
<v Speaker 1>and to try to win that thing.

0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:02.679
<v Speaker 2>Don't remember the moment you're talking about, but I've had,

0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:07.440
<v Speaker 2>I know, I mean, as I'm sure it's true the

0:12:07.600 --> 0:12:11.240
<v Speaker 2>flights in the playoffs, and I think a lot of

0:12:11.280 --> 0:12:16.000
<v Speaker 2>players can speak to this. Your body is so worn down,

0:12:16.040 --> 0:12:20.559
<v Speaker 2>your mind is worn down, like because you're just so drained,

0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:24.840
<v Speaker 2>because you give everything you can in those games and

0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:29.720
<v Speaker 2>a lot of them are long games. And yeah, so

0:12:30.559 --> 0:12:32.720
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't surprise me at all. I know in a

0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:36.679
<v Speaker 2>lot of those flights, I am like, there's no way

0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:40.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna be able to play tomorrow or the next

0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:42.720
<v Speaker 2>day or whatever it is. But of course those players

0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:45.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, we kind of figure it out and find

0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:49.200
<v Speaker 2>a way and are we bounce back quickly. But yeah,

0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:53.520
<v Speaker 2>some of those flights in the postseason, guys are limping

0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:58.360
<v Speaker 2>on and off that plane. It's it's no joke, hey, Chris.

0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:00.520
<v Speaker 1>Is that what makes what the Dodgers have done the

0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:04.760
<v Speaker 1>last two years that much more incredible? With everything that

0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:06.720
<v Speaker 1>you just said, the playoffs.

0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:12.240
<v Speaker 2>Are, Yeah, it's hard that baseball. It's so hard to

0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:17.440
<v Speaker 2>go back to back because I feel like very rarely

0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:20.760
<v Speaker 2>does the best team actually win the World Series in baseball.

0:13:20.800 --> 0:13:23.640
<v Speaker 2>It's just like so much of it is who gets

0:13:23.679 --> 0:13:28.720
<v Speaker 2>hot at the right time. And then also the fashion

0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:35.400
<v Speaker 2>in which they did it last year the probably the

0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:41.960
<v Speaker 2>best World Series I've ever seen in my lifetime. So yeah,

0:13:42.000 --> 0:13:47.000
<v Speaker 2>that was a special World Series for them, for sure.

0:13:47.080 --> 0:13:48.760
<v Speaker 2>That was pretty incredible.

0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:53.200
<v Speaker 1>All right, Chris, We appreciate you coming on, and I

0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:55.880
<v Speaker 1>love that I am sharing you with the fans because

0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:59.840

<v Speaker 1>and you do such great things still to this day.

<v Speaker 1>I mean I just saw a photo of you showing

0:14:05.800 --> 0:14:09.400
<v Speaker 1>up unexpectedly to surprise little leaguers, and you and Mary

0:14:09.840 --> 0:14:12.720
