48
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 4: Coming up in our next segment, you'll hear my.

49
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 2: Conversation with NBC analysts now Clayton kershaw Kershaw by the way,

50
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 2: told me that he'll only be broadcasting one more game

51
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 2: for NBC that'll be in August. He's not going full

52
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 2: fledge into the broadcasting world. Everybody else's job is very

53
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 2: safe out there because if he did, I think he

54
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 2: would be basically the most coveted broadcaster in baseball. He's

55
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: better than a Rod, better than Jeter, better than Big Poppy, better,

56
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 2: I would say, on the level of being coveted. If

57
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 2: he were to decide to do this full time, he

58
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 2: would be, for a lack of a better analogy in NFL,

59
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 2: like Tom Brady, that type of player being that good

60
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 2: in the broadcast booth, because he was phenomenal in his

61
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:20,519
Speaker 2: first night broadcasting for NBC. And you'll hear our conversation

62
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 2: before all the festivities from yesterday, and I can't wait

63
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 2: to share that with you again. In case you missed

64
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 2: our conversation with World Series hero Miguel Rojas, he sat

65

Speaker 2: down with us before he started taking photos and giving

66
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 2: hugs out here at WSS and Boyle Heights. We'll share

67
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:42,320

71
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 2: as well.

72
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,840

00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 2: seventy is the phone number, Steve and Redondo Beach. You're

77
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 2: on live at WSS and Boyle Heights. Miguel Rojas can

78
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 2: hear you, Steve, So don't blow it.

79
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 6: Oh, I'll try not to well. Anyways, as the as

80
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 6: the count was opposing a full count, I was telling

81
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 6: my wife and daughter they should have pinched hit for Rojas.

82
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,840
Speaker 6: And then the next pick went over the fence.

83
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 4: Thank god, you're not the marrying your down.

84
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, who did you want to come up instead of

85
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 2: Miguel Rojas Because that thought never entered my mind. He

86
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,799
Speaker 2: was the guy in that moment because we all thought

87
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 2: he was the best guy to get on base for Otani.

88
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 6: I thought you're wrong. My wife's in the background. She

89
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 6: she she thought I was wrong the whole time.

90
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 2: Well, hopefully she's running the house back there. She knows

91
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 2: what she's doing. Thanks for the phone call, Steve, appreciate it. Yeah,

92
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 2: I mean, I know, I don't know who anybody thought

93
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 2: was going to pinch it for Miguel Rojas at that

94
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 2: point in time. This is not a second guess. It's

95
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 2: a first guest that never entered my mind. He was

96
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: the guy I would want at the plate in that situation.

97
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 2: And here's something else that I forgot to bring.

98
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 4: Up to Miguel. We'll do it again, I'm sure.

99
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 2: In another conversation, do you realize in the last two

100
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 2: postseasons the Dodgers are four and oher in elimination games.

101
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 4: Do you know why?

102
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 2: It's because they don't allow the game to speed up

103
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 2: on them.

104
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 4: They have a lot of.

105
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 2: Experienced players, not just experienced players, but guys that have

106
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 2: been through the postseason.

107
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 4: Think about that.

108
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 2: Going back to the twenty four nlds being down to

109
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 2: the Padres two games to one, they had to win

110
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,280
Speaker 2: the next two games and they were both elimination games.

111
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 4: Last year, they had to.

112
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 2: Win game six in game seven to force they had

113
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,159
Speaker 2: to win game six to force a game seven, and

114
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 2: so they're four and oh in their back to back

115
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 2: championships in elimination games. Let's go out to Jack in La.

Speaker 2: saved the Dodger season with one out in the ninth

186
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,640

188

189
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 2: to pay for a dinner in this city, I'm gonna

190
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,120

191
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 2: for another city, another another meal, another meal. So certainly

192
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 2: he should never have to pay for another meal in

193
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 2: this city. Right, who's gonna make Miguel Rowas you see

194
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 2: Miguel Rojas at Ma, as you see him at Mexicali

195
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 2: Taco on Figueroa, he should never have to pay again.

196
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 4: All right, last night was a great night.

197

203
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 2: Clayton Kershaw was in the house. Everybody saw him before

204
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 2: the game. They're all wondering when is Kershaw going to

205
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 2: get his ring? Because he was not introduced with all

206
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 2: the active players, so everybody was wondering, where the heck

207
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 2: is Kershaw?

208
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,440

00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 13: kind of I've done that a lot of my life,

276
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 13: so I missed that. I missed kind of just being

277
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 13: with everybody. But it was a cool gig to get

278
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 13: to do and get to talk baseball, and you know,

279
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,280

280
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,040

282
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 13: miss being the dugout for sure.

283
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 2: What's it going to be like for you tonight getting

284
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 2: your ring and being part of this group again?

285
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:27,880

00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 13: I I mean we always every time. Is this is

287
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 13: a really special day. You know, it's opening day, ring day,

288
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 13: and then the rest of the season, so these guys

289
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 13: can have the rest of the season, but I get

290
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 13: tonight and I'm just I'm excited.

291
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 12: I'm excited to see it.

292
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 13: I heard it's pretty excessive, over the top, which is

293
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 13: what it should be, and I'm just looking forward to it.

294
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 4: Have you ever warn any of your other rings that

295
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 4: you've won.

296
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 13: No, but now that you mentioned it, I was gonna

297
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 13: bring one out here to have all three on, and

298
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 13: I didn't do that, so because I got it fitted

299
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 13: for my right hand so I could wear like three

300
00:15:59,320 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 13: at once.

301
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 12: But they're not here, so let's put it on the record.

302
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 2: Though, when you go out to dinner your friends, when

303
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 2: you go back to Texas when you first came back,

304
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 2: does everybody want to see it? And do you feel

305
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 2: like it's a letdown if you don't bring it out

306
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 2: to everybody at the dinner party.

307
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 12: I'll leave it at the house. But my dinner party,

308
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 12: what do you think I'm having dinner parties?

309
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 4: You're retired, now, that's what you do.

316
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 12: You can say either? I think probably NBC.

317
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 2: Though everybody focused on the suit and tie. But I

318
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 2: noticed it's very vacation, like bronze gold to your face

319
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 2: where were you Fiji before Opening Day?

320
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 12: First spring break we ever had? First spring break is

321
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 12: a family non nazy.

322
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 13: So you know, we were in Miami for the WBC,

323
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 13: so we just stayed out there for spring break, stayed

324
00:16:58,040 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 13: in Florida and.

325
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 12: It's pretty great.

326
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I missed the WBC.

327
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:04,719
Speaker 12: I'm sorry, it's okay. Where were you?

328
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 4: I was watching spring training baseball?

329
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:07,360
Speaker 1: Oh?

330
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 12: Nice? Good, good for you.

331
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 2: Hey, your buddy Brad Paisley's out here tonight performing the

332
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 2: national anthem. Was this coordinated for him to be out

333
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 2: here knowing that you would be here.

334
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 13: Well, we texted, but I think it was a happenstance

335
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 13: more than a coordination.

336
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:23,919
Speaker 12: But uh, he's really good at it.

337
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 13: He asked me if we wanted to switch and I

338
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 13: sing the anthem and I said no, Yeah.

339
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 2: Good choice, good choice, good choice. It seems like you're

340
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 2: so at peace with all of this.

341
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 4: It feels like.

342
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 2: You you understood what you contributed to the game, but

343
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,199
Speaker 2: you don't seem to have that fomo that guys that

344
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 2: just retired usually have.

345
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:42,400
Speaker 3: Yeah.

346
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 13: I mean, I'm sure that I'll kick in at some point,

347
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 13: but I also know that, like I did, I did

348
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 13: just about as much as I could.

349
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 12: The everything was slowing down a little bit, and.

350
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 13: Just that there are so many factors, and then when

351
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 13: you top it all off with the way it ended,

352
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,360
Speaker 13: it's just like you, I ain't really ask for anything more.

353
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 12: So I'm at peace with all that. It doesn't mean

354
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 12: I don't miss it.

355
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,439
Speaker 13: It doesn't mean I don't miss being around the guys

356
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:09,120
Speaker 13: and hanging out, flying with them, playing cards.

357
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 12: And just I just knew it was probably my time.

358
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 2: Do you feel like you'll have some sort of connection

359
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 2: to the organization as time moves on.

360
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:19,880
Speaker 13: Yeah, I think I'll always be a Dodger. I want

361
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 13: to help in any way I can from afar. You know,

362
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,400
Speaker 13: there's probably not going to be much traveling in my future,

363
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 13: but if I can help, you know, if I watch games,

364
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,439
Speaker 13: I know I'm gonna watch all the games. So if

365
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 13: there's somebody that wants to talk or see something or whatever,

366
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 13: I want to be a part of this group, and

367
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 13: I think Andrew will let me do that, so it'll

368
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 13: be good.

369
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 12: All right.

370
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,159
Speaker 2: Before I let you go, I'm just curious about you know,

371
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 2: all of that, any recruiting.

372
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 4: Did you recruit Tucker?

373
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 2: Were you trying to recruit Schooble during the World Baseball Classic.

374
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 12: You know, think about the Dodgers. I don't.

375
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 13: I don't really know if you have to recruit anymore.

376
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 13: You know, it just kind of everybody kind of knows

377
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 13: a great place to be and just by of mouth,

378
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 13: by other people being here. And so Tucker, Tucker figured

379
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 13: it out, and I'm sure Scoops at the end of

380
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 13: this year, if everything's even, he'll figure it out too.

381
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,679
Speaker 4: All right, thanks a lot, it's great to have you

382
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:13,120
Speaker 4: back here.

383
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 12: Thanks.

384
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 4: I can't wait to see you get that third ring.

385
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 12: Dave, that's your name. That's what it is great to see.

386
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 12: Thank you.

387
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 4: They remember my name, Bob Costas's sidekick.

388
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 2: Remember my name. I had the last word. That's one

389
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 2: thing you got to remember. I had the last word

390
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 2: on that one.

391
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 4: Hey.

392
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 2: It was great to have Kershaw back out there. Got

393
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 2: to spend some time with him. I learned so much

394
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 2: from him. I learned a lot on how to broadcast,

395
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 2: you know, answer questions. I remember one spring training where

396
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 2: he just said and it really resonated with me to

397
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 2: this day. He always just wondered, like, why can't all

398
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 2: these talking heads, Why can't you just say you don't know, Dave?

399
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 2: Why can't you say, if you don't know the answer,

400
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,439
Speaker 2: you're not sure, why can't you say you don't know?

401
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 2: And I'll take that for the rest of my broadcasting career.

402
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 2: If I don't know the answer, I'll I'll be really

403
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 2: honest and say I don't know. And I think what

404
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,160
Speaker 2: you saw the first night on NBC is what I've

405
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 2: known and experienced.

406
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,400
Speaker 4: He knows a lot about the team.

407
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 2: He knows a lot about the players, he knows about

408
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 2: the makeup, he knows their strengths and weaknesses.

409
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 4: This guy was very observant.

410
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 2: He was watching everything, going back to his first day

411
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:31,479
Speaker 2: in the major leagues.

412
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,120
Speaker 4: He was watching everybody.

413
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 2: At times he would even try to take a piece

414
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 2: of different pictures. As great as he was, I remember

415
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 2: when rich Hill was on the Dodgers, he would drop

416
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 2: down and try to change shapes of his fastball or

417
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 2: his curveball, and then Kershaw was dropping down. I mean,

418
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 2: that's the type of guy he was, and just that

419
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 2: type of picture he was.

420
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 4: Even with three.

421
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 2: Cy youngs and MVP, he was always trying to get

422
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,679
Speaker 2: better or evolve as time went on and stay a

423
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 2: step ahead. And look, it was my pleasure being around

424
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 2: him as much as I was and learning as much

425
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 2: as I did from him, And it's you know, I

426
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 2: was asking Miguel Rojas back in twenty fourteen.

427
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 4: It just seems so far away to be where the

428
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 4: Dodgers are right now.

429
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 2: You think back to Kershaw's career, the heartbreaking Saint Louis

430
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 2: in twenty thirteen and twenty fourteen, and look at him now,

431
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 2: I mean, guy can't stop smiling.

432
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 4: You think back to.

433
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 2: Twenty nineteen against the Nationals where he was basically broken

434
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 2: in that moment, somewhat sobbing in that postgame press conference

435
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,640
Speaker 2: after the Dodgers lost to the Nationals and the Nlds

436
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 2: in twenty nineteen. And here he is a three time

437
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 2: World Series champion and played a huge role in two

438
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 2: of the three and was along for the ride in

439
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 2: twenty four So couldn't be happier for a guy that

440
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 2: you know, emptied the tank and maximized all the god

441
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 2: given talent that he had. Eight six six nine eighty seven,

442
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,679
Speaker 2: two seventy is the phone number. We still got thirty

443

Speaker 2: minutes to go on Dodger Talk Live from WSS and

445
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 2: to the Dodgers twenty twenty six edition.

446
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,680
Speaker 4: Who is going to stop this freight train?

447
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 2: I'm not sure anybody is, but we'll talk about it

448
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,679
Speaker 2: when we continue up to one o'clock. Right here on

452
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 2: thank you to Miguel Rojas were stopping by. We'll share

453
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 2: that conversation with you in just a moment. He stopped

454
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 2: by the desk here and then for over an hour

455
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 2: taking photos, listening to people's stories, just being a great

456
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 2: hero to so many people as he is, and letting

457
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,439
Speaker 2: them share their feelings with him and acknowledging them. He

458
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 2: wasn't just taking photos, he was actually listening to them,

459
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 2: and that's always special when you have one of your

460
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 2: favorite players, and obviously a guy that will live on

461

Speaker 2: in infamy and Dodger history, not only just be there

462
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 2: to take a photo with you, but also to acknowledge you,

00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 2: lineup for The. Dodgers and you look at The dodgers

474
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 2: right now as they're. Constructed Alex, friedland the last guy

475
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 2: to make the. Team last, night hits a home, run

476
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 2: is first of the, season doubles and then scores what

477
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 2: eventually would be the difference in the game last, night

478
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:11,199
Speaker 2: as The dodgers Beat arizona five to, four even with

479
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 2: their starting Pitcher Emmit sheen only going three and a third.

480
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,640
Speaker 2: Inning so that just shows you, know there is some

481
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 2: vulnerabilities on certain. Nights The dodgers are not going to

482
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 2: be perfect every, night but even on a night like last,

483
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 2: Night arizona still couldn't beat The. DODGERS i kind of

484
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 2: feel like the sweep is, coming and Then cleveland's coming to.

485
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,679
Speaker 2: Town and remember last, year The dodgers got off to

486
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 2: a great start the first six weeks of the season

487
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 2: and then somewhat leveled off as they paced themselves for the.

488
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 2: Postseason but for The dodgers this, year it feels like

489
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 2: they're just so, deep not only in their starting lineup

490
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,400
Speaker 2: but on their, bench deeper than they were a year.

491
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,639
Speaker 2: Ago and that's not even Counting Tommy edman Or Key

492
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 2: Key hernandez or on the injured. List to start the,

493
00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 2: year you Got Santiago, espinal you Got Miguil, rojas you Got.

494
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 4: Alex, call you Got Alex.

495
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 2: Friedland when you look back at last Year's World series

496
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 2: and the, Postseason Dave roberts did not have many options

497
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 2: off the. Bench, yeah he had some defensive replacements, available

498
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:20,119
Speaker 2: Like pajz who's struggling during the, postseason but he really

499
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 2: didn't Have when you say pinch hit For Miguel, rojas

500
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,440
Speaker 2: who was going to pinch hit For Miguel. Rojas there

501
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 2: was nobody better Than Miguel rojas to take that at

502
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 2: bat in the ninth inning Against Jeff hoffman And Dave

503
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,680
Speaker 2: Roberts gut certainly paid. Off that was the only home

504
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 2: Run Miguel rojas hit off a right handed pitcher all

505
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 2: year long last. Season and look The dodgers forced A

506
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 2: game Seven Bob bashett hits that three run home run

507
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 2: off Of. Otani you're, thinking oh, boy we had never

508
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 2: Seen otani doubled over that way on the mound after

509
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 2: a big hit like. That and they found a way

510
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 2: to regroup And yamamoto obviously to the rest you In

Speaker 14: our our own. Career we play for so many people

627
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 14: who comes to the baseball field every single, day and

628
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 14: that's why, we, uh we kind of have to put

629
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 14: a good show every single, night and we have to

630
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 14: show up and prepare for every single game because there's

631
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 14: someone new in the stands every. Day SO i think for,

632
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 14: me doing it every single day is what. Counts but

633
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 14: when you do it in the biggest station in The

634
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 14: War series to win a championship for all defens who support.

635
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 1: Us throughout the whole year and not just last.

636
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 14: Year BUT i, Mean i've been here for the last

637
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 14: four and THEN i make my debut in twenty, fourteen

638
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 14: and it's been the same kind of support to the,

639
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 14: team regardless of whoever's. Playing But i'm really happy that

640
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 14: we're going to leave a legacy here that this.

641
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 4: Team was really.

642
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 2: Special i'm so glad you brought that, up because when

643
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 2: you first started with The dodgers in twenty, fourteen it

644
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 2: just seems so far, away a little bit out of.

645
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 2: Reach you guys were just missing something or some. Luck

646
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 2: in twenty fourteen when you guys started this run and

647
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 2: you were a big part of, it have you had

648
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 2: a chance to reflect on where it started and where

649
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 2: it's at right now for you and The.

650
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,680
Speaker 1: Dodgers, YEAH i remember kind of the same.

651
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 14: Way we have the best player in the in the

652
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 14: game at the, time On clayton kersher on the mound

653
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 14: for us every five. Days but definitely when you have

654
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 14: a team like, that you kind of like continue to

655
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 14: get to a playoff and and get there every single.

656
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 14: Year but you couldn't like really put it away because

657
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:22,959
Speaker 14: you're missing this kind of ability of making this a

658
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 14: complete family that is coming from all over the. Place

659
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 14: AND i think a big difference is being kind of

660
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 14: like the guys who are being the core of this

661
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 14: team for a long time get together for a few.

662
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 14: Years so when you see The mookie, Kick Willi smith

663
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 14: and all these guys kind of grew.

664
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: Together so that's that's when we're seeing right. Now a

665
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 1: lot of.

666
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 14: Talent obviously we Show yamamoto and people coming from different,

667
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 14: places but these guys are the like the column of

668
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 14: this of this foundation because they really been putting, work

669
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 14: AND i mean they they got to a wards here

670
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 14: is they couldn't get it, Done but now is the

671
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 14: time where they know how to, win and they know

672
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 14: how to win.

673
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 2: Together And Miguel rojas a big part of the pillar

674
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:10,960

00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 14: selfishness to kind of take that boat knowing that we

783
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:10,839
Speaker 14: don't need a, Home run we just need.

784
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 1: To get that guy over to.

785
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,359
Speaker 14: Third base he got down in the hole with two

786
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 14: strikes early. On him he was able to take some

787
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 14: tough pitches and then all of a sudden there's a

788
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:22,319
Speaker 14: pitch up in the souna and he's rolling over a

789
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 14: ball to. Second base the best player in the world.

790
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 14: Doing that that set the tone for.

791
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 1: The rest, you know if.

792
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 14: The best player in the war back TO back mvp

793
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,360
Speaker 14: or three times in a row and FOUR times mvp is,

794
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 14: doing that everybody else is gonna. Follow SUIT so i

795
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 14: feel like that's.

796
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 1: The beauty and the how pretty this.

797
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 14: Team is because we're full, of talent we're full, of

798
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 14: starts and we all. Understand that but at the, same

799
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 14: time we all understand that there's things to be needs

800
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,160
Speaker 14: to be done during the game that it doesn't acquire

801
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 14: to be, so talented which is like running hard to

802
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 14: first base or in, your teammates being on the bench.

803
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 1: FOR others i think that's that's what we do.

804
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 14: Really good and we don't ride those roller coasters of emotions.
