<v Speaker 4>Miguel Rojas. A rare Sunday off.

0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:09.840
<v Speaker 2>Uh don't ask me why, but the schedule makers had

0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:13.200
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers open up on Thursday with the three game series,

<v Speaker 2>which will take them to Washington, DC and then Toronto.

0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:33.720
<v Speaker 2>I wonder if U if Miguel Rojas is gonna be

0:01:33.760 --> 0:01:36.240
<v Speaker 2>held at customs. I wonder if Toronto's gonna let Miguel

0:01:36.360 --> 0:01:38.920
<v Speaker 2>Rojas and Will Smith back into Canada.

0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:40.160

0:01:43.200 --> 0:01:46.360
<v Speaker 2>the phone number. Tyler Glass now is on the mound

<v Speaker 2>for the Dodgers tonight, his first start of the season

0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:54.360
<v Speaker 2>and going up against Eduardo Rodriguez, the left handers. So

0:01:54.560 --> 0:01:58.279
<v Speaker 2>Rojas will be in the starting lineup tonight at second base.

0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:02.559
<v Speaker 2>So uh, certainly gonna be a fun night after seeing

0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:05.080
<v Speaker 2>Miguel Rojas here at Boyle Heights.

0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:06.320
<v Speaker 4>WSS VS.

0:02:06.400 --> 0:02:08.919
<v Speaker 2>Tacos is in the parking lot as well, so we're

0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:12.920
<v Speaker 2>feeding everybody out here and Boyle Heights our guys from VS.

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:13.480
<v Speaker 4>Tacos.

0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:16.320
<v Speaker 2>You know, they have not forgot their roots after Bad

0:02:16.360 --> 0:02:18.720
<v Speaker 2>Bunny put them on the Bigger.

0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:20.080
<v Speaker 4>World map during the Super Bowl.

0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:23.800
<v Speaker 2>They're even taking selfies right now, so maybe we'll get

0:02:23.840 --> 0:02:25.160
<v Speaker 2>them on the show as well.

0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:27.799
<v Speaker 4>Coming up in our next segment, you'll hear my.

0:02:28.240 --> 0:02:34.799
<v Speaker 2>Conversation with NBC analysts now Clayton kershaw Kershaw by the way,

0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:37.560
<v Speaker 2>told me that he'll only be broadcasting one more game

0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:42.280
<v Speaker 2>for NBC that'll be in August. He's not going full

0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:46.239
<v Speaker 2>fledge into the broadcasting world. Everybody else's job is very

0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:49.440
<v Speaker 2>safe out there because if he did, I think he

0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:54.519
<v Speaker 2>would be basically the most coveted broadcaster in baseball. He's

0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:59.160
<v Speaker 2>better than a Rod, better than Jeter, better than Big Poppy, better,

0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:02.040
<v Speaker 2>I would say, on the level of being coveted. If

0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:05.080
<v Speaker 2>he were to decide to do this full time, he

0:03:05.120 --> 0:03:08.680
<v Speaker 2>would be, for a lack of a better analogy in NFL,

0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:12.360
<v Speaker 2>like Tom Brady, that type of player being that good

0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:15.760
<v Speaker 2>in the broadcast booth, because he was phenomenal in his

0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:20.519
<v Speaker 2>first night broadcasting for NBC. And you'll hear our conversation

0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:24.519
<v Speaker 2>before all the festivities from yesterday, and I can't wait

0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:26.840
<v Speaker 2>to share that with you again. In case you missed

0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:30.240
<v Speaker 2>our conversation with World Series hero Miguel Rojas, he sat

0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:33.720
<v Speaker 2>down with us before he started taking photos and giving

0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:38.200
<v Speaker 2>hugs out here at WSS and Boyle Heights. We'll share

0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:42.320
<v Speaker 2>that conversation with you before First Pitch Tonight. Our coverage

0:03:42.320 --> 0:03:45.840
<v Speaker 2>begins at five o'clock with Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck

0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:51.000
<v Speaker 2>and First Pitch Tonight with Rick Munday and Tim Neverett

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:53.520
<v Speaker 2>at six ten, so we'll share that conversation with you

0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:54.040
<v Speaker 2>as well.

0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:56.840
<v Speaker 4>If you can't wait that long. Once we're done with

0:03:56.880 --> 0:03:58.440
<v Speaker 4>the show at one o'clock.

0:03:58.240 --> 0:04:02.080
<v Speaker 2>You could podcast this early day of Dodger Talk on

0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:06.160
<v Speaker 2>the iHeartRadio app. Eight six six nine seven two five

0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:10.120
<v Speaker 2>seventy is the phone number, Steve and Redondo Beach. You're

0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:14.640
<v Speaker 2>on live at WSS and Boyle Heights. Miguel Rojas can

0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:16.240
<v Speaker 2>hear you, Steve, So don't blow it.

0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:21.040
<v Speaker 6>Oh, I'll try not to well. Anyways, as the as

0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:23.520
<v Speaker 6>the count was opposing a full count, I was telling

0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:26.320
<v Speaker 6>my wife and daughter they should have pinched hit for Rojas.

0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:28.840
<v Speaker 6>And then the next pick went over the fence.

0:04:30.680 --> 0:04:32.360
<v Speaker 4>Thank god, you're not the marrying your down.

0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:37.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, who did you want to come up instead of

0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:41.640
<v Speaker 2>Miguel Rojas Because that thought never entered my mind. He

0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:44.799
<v Speaker 2>was the guy in that moment because we all thought

0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:48.040
<v Speaker 2>he was the best guy to get on base for Otani.

0:04:49.600 --> 0:04:53.280
<v Speaker 6>I thought you're wrong. My wife's in the background. She

0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:55.000
<v Speaker 6>she she thought I was wrong the whole time.

0:04:55.200 --> 0:04:57.599
<v Speaker 2>Well, hopefully she's running the house back there. She knows

0:04:57.640 --> 0:05:01.960
<v Speaker 2>what she's doing. Thanks for the phone call, Steve, appreciate it. Yeah,

0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:05.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I know, I don't know who anybody thought

0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:07.479
<v Speaker 2>was going to pinch it for Miguel Rojas at that

0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:10.440
<v Speaker 2>point in time. This is not a second guess. It's

0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:13.479
<v Speaker 2>a first guest that never entered my mind. He was

0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:16.320
<v Speaker 2>the guy I would want at the plate in that situation.

0:05:17.120 --> 0:05:19.360
<v Speaker 2>And here's something else that I forgot to bring.

0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:20.960
<v Speaker 4>Up to Miguel. We'll do it again, I'm sure.

0:05:21.000 --> 0:05:24.640
<v Speaker 2>In another conversation, do you realize in the last two

0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:29.599
<v Speaker 2>postseasons the Dodgers are four and oher in elimination games.

0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:30.719
<v Speaker 4>Do you know why?

0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:34.400
<v Speaker 2>It's because they don't allow the game to speed up

0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:34.839
<v Speaker 2>on them.

0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:35.800
<v Speaker 4>They have a lot of.

0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Experienced players, not just experienced players, but guys that have

0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:41.000
<v Speaker 2>been through the postseason.

0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:42.120
<v Speaker 4>Think about that.

0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:46.240
<v Speaker 2>Going back to the twenty four nlds being down to

0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:49.680
<v Speaker 2>the Padres two games to one, they had to win

0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:53.280
<v Speaker 2>the next two games and they were both elimination games.

0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:54.840
<v Speaker 4>Last year, they had to.

0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:58.320
<v Speaker 2>Win game six in game seven to force they had

0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:00.159
<v Speaker 2>to win game six to force a game seven, and

0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:03.000
<v Speaker 2>so they're four and oh in their back to back

0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:07.080
<v Speaker 2>championships in elimination games. Let's go out to Jack in La.

0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:09.360

<v Speaker 6>down in the bedroom. I'm in the living room watching

<v Speaker 6>power that Douglas had, by far, Meggi Roe is her

0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:34.000
<v Speaker 6>favorite player, and she was calling for him to play.

0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:36.200
<v Speaker 6>Why is it Megiro playing? Why is it Megiro playing?

0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:39.200
<v Speaker 6>So she's in the bedroom, Megguiro hits the home run.

<v Speaker 2>Eight sixty six nine eight seven two five seventy is

0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:10.160
<v Speaker 2>the phone number.

0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:12.000
<v Speaker 4>Everybody has a story.

0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:15.640
<v Speaker 2>You go back to twenty twenty four, everybody had a

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:19.679
<v Speaker 2>story where they were when Freddie Freeman hit his walk

0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:20.640
<v Speaker 2>off Grand Slam.

0:09:20.720 --> 0:09:21.720
<v Speaker 4>Many of you were there.

0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:26.800
<v Speaker 2>Everybody has a story where they were when Miguel Rojas

0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:30.400
<v Speaker 2>saved the Dodger season with one out in the ninth

0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:34.640
<v Speaker 2>inning in Toronto. And I'm so happy that Boyle Heights

0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:38.079
<v Speaker 2>showed up, showed out to give Miguel Rojas the love

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:41.400
<v Speaker 2>he deserves. And like I said, if Miguel Rojas has

0:09:41.440 --> 0:09:43.559
<v Speaker 2>to pay for a dinner in this city, I'm gonna

0:09:43.559 --> 0:09:46.120
<v Speaker 2>be very upset. This guy should never have to pay

0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:51.760
<v Speaker 2>for another city, another another meal, another meal. So certainly

0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:55.240
<v Speaker 2>he should never have to pay for another meal in

0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:58.320
<v Speaker 2>this city. Right, who's gonna make Miguel Rowas you see

0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:03.120
<v Speaker 2>Miguel Rojas at Ma, as you see him at Mexicali

0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:06.840
<v Speaker 2>Taco on Figueroa, he should never have to pay again.

0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:09.280
<v Speaker 4>All right, last night was a great night.

0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:12.040
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna be a big night here at Dodgers Stadium

0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:15.080
<v Speaker 2>tonight as well. Will Smith Bobblehead Night, Yeah, you know

0:10:15.120 --> 0:10:17.520
<v Speaker 2>the guy that hit the go ahead home run in

0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:22.319
<v Speaker 2>the eleventh inning. It's Bobblehead night. So Will Smith Bobblehead

0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:24.880
<v Speaker 2>Night tonight. It's gonna be a high demand when it's

0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:28.960
<v Speaker 2>Miguil Rojas bobblehead night. But last night ring ceremony. Okay,

0:10:29.480 --> 0:10:32.480
<v Speaker 2>Clayton Kershaw was in the house. Everybody saw him before

0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:35.880
<v Speaker 2>the game. They're all wondering when is Kershaw going to

0:10:35.920 --> 0:10:38.920
<v Speaker 2>get his ring? Because he was not introduced with all

0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:42.560
<v Speaker 2>the active players, so everybody was wondering, where the heck

0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:43.280
<v Speaker 2>is Kershaw?

0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:45.440
<v Speaker 4>How is he getting his ring?

0:10:45.720 --> 0:10:48.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, this is the way it sounded inside the stadium

0:10:48.520 --> 0:10:52.520
<v Speaker 2>last night as the Dodger surprised everybody in the sellout crowd.

0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:56.720

<v Speaker 7>I do, Joe, Oral, we love you, We appreciate you.

0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:49.280
<v Speaker 7>One who thought the first pitch, but I think everyone

0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:55.200
<v Speaker 7>here wants is the left handed pitcher who's been warming up.

0:11:56.520 --> 0:12:09.120
<v Speaker 11>And needs one more appearance up.

0:12:11.280 --> 0:12:18.000

<v Speaker 12>Great job, Clayton.

0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:48.679

<v Speaker 10>the entire twenty twenty five World Champion Dodgers.

0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:03.680
<v Speaker 2>Hey, that was special last night. I really it gave

0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:07.000
<v Speaker 2>me chills. And you know, obviously I've covered Kershaw's entire

0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:10.480
<v Speaker 2>career closely, the last fourteen of his career, and he

0:13:10.559 --> 0:13:13.680
<v Speaker 2>has meant so much to the organization, and I thought

0:13:13.720 --> 0:13:17.160
<v Speaker 2>the best scene last night was his teammates coming out

0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:20.240
<v Speaker 2>surrounding him and all of them taking a picture with

0:13:20.360 --> 0:13:21.400
<v Speaker 2>their championship ring.

0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:22.720
<v Speaker 4>So that was really special.

0:13:23.120 --> 0:13:25.920

<v Speaker 4>David Vasse, Thanks, what was your name again? Exactly?

0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:51.840
<v Speaker 2>I was curious you were so close to the dugout

0:14:51.960 --> 0:14:54.040
<v Speaker 2>last night. You said you were in the twilight Zone

0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:57.160
<v Speaker 2>was the first couple of innings awkward being that close

0:14:57.240 --> 0:14:58.080
<v Speaker 2>with the headset on.

0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:00.720
<v Speaker 13>I mean, yeah, obviously, I I love to be in

0:15:00.760 --> 0:15:03.040
<v Speaker 13>the dugout with these guys and watching the game. It's

0:15:03.120 --> 0:15:05.360
<v Speaker 13>kind of I've done that a lot of my life,

0:15:05.400 --> 0:15:07.880
<v Speaker 13>so I missed that. I missed kind of just being

0:15:07.920 --> 0:15:10.480
<v Speaker 13>with everybody. But it was a cool gig to get

0:15:10.480 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 13>to do and get to talk baseball, and you know,

0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:16.280
<v Speaker 13>Oral and Louise and Jason up there, it was they

0:15:16.280 --> 0:15:18.040
<v Speaker 13>did they made it easy on me, so it was

0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:21.240
<v Speaker 13>it was really fun. And but yeah, I missed. I

0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:22.480
<v Speaker 13>miss being the dugout for sure.

0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:24.720
<v Speaker 2>What's it going to be like for you tonight getting

0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:27.000
<v Speaker 2>your ring and being part of this group again?

0:15:27.120 --> 0:15:27.880
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, it's great.

0:15:28.040 --> 0:15:31.480
<v Speaker 13>I I mean we always every time. Is this is

0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:33.920
<v Speaker 13>a really special day. You know, it's opening day, ring day,

0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:36.320
<v Speaker 13>and then the rest of the season, so these guys

0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:38.000
<v Speaker 13>can have the rest of the season, but I get

0:15:38.040 --> 0:15:41.240
<v Speaker 13>tonight and I'm just I'm excited.

0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:42.080
<v Speaker 12>I'm excited to see it.

0:15:42.080 --> 0:15:44.160
<v Speaker 13>I heard it's pretty excessive, over the top, which is

0:15:44.160 --> 0:15:47.600
<v Speaker 13>what it should be, and I'm just looking forward to it.

0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:50.240
<v Speaker 4>Have you ever warn any of your other rings that

0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:50.680
<v Speaker 4>you've won.

0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:52.480
<v Speaker 13>No, but now that you mentioned it, I was gonna

0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:54.560
<v Speaker 13>bring one out here to have all three on, and

0:15:54.720 --> 0:15:57.080
<v Speaker 13>I didn't do that, so because I got it fitted

0:15:57.160 --> 0:15:59.280
<v Speaker 13>for my right hand so I could wear like three

0:15:59.320 --> 0:15:59.720
<v Speaker 13>at once.

0:16:01.480 --> 0:16:03.480
<v Speaker 12>But they're not here, so let's put it on the record.

0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:05.280
<v Speaker 2>Though, when you go out to dinner your friends, when

0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:07.400
<v Speaker 2>you go back to Texas when you first came back,

0:16:07.440 --> 0:16:10.000
<v Speaker 2>does everybody want to see it? And do you feel

0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:12.400
<v Speaker 2>like it's a letdown if you don't bring it out

0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:14.000
<v Speaker 2>to everybody at the dinner party.

0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:16.360
<v Speaker 12>I'll leave it at the house. But my dinner party,

0:16:16.400 --> 0:16:17.720
<v Speaker 12>what do you think I'm having dinner parties?

0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:19.760
<v Speaker 4>You're retired, now, that's what you do.

0:16:19.800 --> 0:16:22.040
<v Speaker 12>That's what you do. Get the tupperware, dear.

0:16:23.560 --> 0:16:26.360
<v Speaker 13>No, But my Charlie's got a tournament this weekend, so

0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:29.240
<v Speaker 13>I might I might tell the boys if they play good,

0:16:29.280 --> 0:16:30.160
<v Speaker 13>they can see the ring.

0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:35.040
<v Speaker 2>Clayton Kershaw is our guest, NBC's Clayton Kershaw.

0:16:35.120 --> 0:16:36.720
<v Speaker 4>Is that fair or should I say peacock?

0:16:37.520 --> 0:16:39.720
<v Speaker 12>You can say either? I think probably NBC.

0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:43.160
<v Speaker 2>Though everybody focused on the suit and tie. But I

0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:46.760
<v Speaker 2>noticed it's very vacation, like bronze gold to your face

0:16:47.080 --> 0:16:49.040
<v Speaker 2>where were you Fiji before Opening Day?

0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:52.120
<v Speaker 12>First spring break we ever had? First spring break is

0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:53.160
<v Speaker 12>a family non nazy.

0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:55.960
<v Speaker 13>So you know, we were in Miami for the WBC,

0:16:56.160 --> 0:16:58.040
<v Speaker 13>so we just stayed out there for spring break, stayed

0:16:58.040 --> 0:16:59.920
<v Speaker 13>in Florida and.

0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:00.920
<v Speaker 12>It's pretty great.

0:17:01.320 --> 0:17:03.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I missed the WBC.

0:17:03.240 --> 0:17:04.719
<v Speaker 12>I'm sorry, it's okay. Where were you?

0:17:05.160 --> 0:17:07.080
<v Speaker 4>I was watching spring training baseball?

0:17:07.160 --> 0:17:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

0:17:07.440 --> 0:17:08.560
<v Speaker 12>Nice? Good, good for you.

0:17:09.359 --> 0:17:12.480
<v Speaker 2>Hey, your buddy Brad Paisley's out here tonight performing the

0:17:12.560 --> 0:17:15.600
<v Speaker 2>national anthem. Was this coordinated for him to be out

0:17:15.600 --> 0:17:17.240
<v Speaker 2>here knowing that you would be here.

0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:20.880
<v Speaker 13>Well, we texted, but I think it was a happenstance

0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:22.000
<v Speaker 13>more than a coordination.

0:17:22.200 --> 0:17:23.919
<v Speaker 12>But uh, he's really good at it.

0:17:23.960 --> 0:17:25.359
<v Speaker 13>He asked me if we wanted to switch and I

0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:28.560
<v Speaker 13>sing the anthem and I said no, Yeah.

0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:31.520
<v Speaker 2>Good choice, good choice, good choice. It seems like you're

0:17:31.560 --> 0:17:33.040
<v Speaker 2>so at peace with all of this.

0:17:33.200 --> 0:17:33.920
<v Speaker 4>It feels like.

0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:36.840
<v Speaker 2>You you understood what you contributed to the game, but

0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:40.199
<v Speaker 2>you don't seem to have that fomo that guys that

0:17:40.359 --> 0:17:41.560
<v Speaker 2>just retired usually have.

0:17:42.200 --> 0:17:42.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:44.800
<v Speaker 13>I mean, I'm sure that I'll kick in at some point,

0:17:44.960 --> 0:17:48.240
<v Speaker 13>but I also know that, like I did, I did

0:17:48.280 --> 0:17:49.880
<v Speaker 13>just about as much as I could.

0:17:51.119 --> 0:17:53.320
<v Speaker 12>The everything was slowing down a little bit, and.

0:17:55.240 --> 0:17:57.040
<v Speaker 13>Just that there are so many factors, and then when

0:17:57.040 --> 0:17:58.600
<v Speaker 13>you top it all off with the way it ended,

0:17:58.640 --> 0:18:01.360
<v Speaker 13>it's just like you, I ain't really ask for anything more.

0:18:01.440 --> 0:18:03.000
<v Speaker 12>So I'm at peace with all that. It doesn't mean

0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:03.560
<v Speaker 12>I don't miss it.

0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:05.439
<v Speaker 13>It doesn't mean I don't miss being around the guys

0:18:05.480 --> 0:18:09.120
<v Speaker 13>and hanging out, flying with them, playing cards.

0:18:08.400 --> 0:18:11.760
<v Speaker 12>And just I just knew it was probably my time.

0:18:12.119 --> 0:18:15.040
<v Speaker 2>Do you feel like you'll have some sort of connection

0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:17.560
<v Speaker 2>to the organization as time moves on.

0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:19.880
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, I think I'll always be a Dodger. I want

0:18:19.880 --> 0:18:24.119
<v Speaker 13>to help in any way I can from afar. You know,

0:18:24.160 --> 0:18:26.400
<v Speaker 13>there's probably not going to be much traveling in my future,

0:18:26.440 --> 0:18:29.399
<v Speaker 13>but if I can help, you know, if I watch games,

0:18:29.400 --> 0:18:31.439
<v Speaker 13>I know I'm gonna watch all the games. So if

0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:34.040
<v Speaker 13>there's somebody that wants to talk or see something or whatever,

0:18:34.080 --> 0:18:36.960
<v Speaker 13>I want to be a part of this group, and

0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:39.320
<v Speaker 13>I think Andrew will let me do that, so it'll

0:18:39.359 --> 0:18:39.640
<v Speaker 13>be good.

0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:40.040
<v Speaker 12>All right.

0:18:40.080 --> 0:18:42.159
<v Speaker 2>Before I let you go, I'm just curious about you know,

0:18:42.359 --> 0:18:44.800
<v Speaker 2>all of that, any recruiting.

0:18:44.920 --> 0:18:46.080
<v Speaker 4>Did you recruit Tucker?

0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:49.720
<v Speaker 2>Were you trying to recruit Schooble during the World Baseball Classic.

0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:51.720
<v Speaker 12>You know, think about the Dodgers. I don't.

0:18:51.800 --> 0:18:53.880
<v Speaker 13>I don't really know if you have to recruit anymore.

0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:56.879
<v Speaker 13>You know, it just kind of everybody kind of knows

0:18:56.880 --> 0:19:00.480
<v Speaker 13>a great place to be and just by of mouth,

0:19:00.520 --> 0:19:05.200
<v Speaker 13>by other people being here. And so Tucker, Tucker figured

0:19:05.240 --> 0:19:07.080
<v Speaker 13>it out, and I'm sure Scoops at the end of

0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:10.240
<v Speaker 13>this year, if everything's even, he'll figure it out too.

0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:12.679
<v Speaker 4>All right, thanks a lot, it's great to have you

0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:13.120
<v Speaker 4>back here.

0:19:13.200 --> 0:19:13.520
<v Speaker 12>Thanks.

0:19:13.720 --> 0:19:16.000
<v Speaker 4>I can't wait to see you get that third ring.

0:19:16.640 --> 0:19:19.040
<v Speaker 12>Dave, that's your name. That's what it is great to see.

0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:20.600
<v Speaker 12>Thank you.

0:19:20.640 --> 0:19:23.879
<v Speaker 4>They remember my name, Bob Costas's sidekick.

0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:28.840
<v Speaker 2>Remember my name. I had the last word. That's one

0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:30.840
<v Speaker 2>thing you got to remember. I had the last word

0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:31.520
<v Speaker 2>on that one.

0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:32.240
<v Speaker 4>Hey.

0:19:32.240 --> 0:19:34.480
<v Speaker 2>It was great to have Kershaw back out there. Got

0:19:34.480 --> 0:19:37.200
<v Speaker 2>to spend some time with him. I learned so much

0:19:37.240 --> 0:19:40.560
<v Speaker 2>from him. I learned a lot on how to broadcast,

0:19:41.400 --> 0:19:45.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, answer questions. I remember one spring training where

0:19:45.200 --> 0:19:48.159
<v Speaker 2>he just said and it really resonated with me to

0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:52.080
<v Speaker 2>this day. He always just wondered, like, why can't all

0:19:52.119 --> 0:19:56.160
<v Speaker 2>these talking heads, Why can't you just say you don't know, Dave?

0:19:56.240 --> 0:19:58.200
<v Speaker 2>Why can't you say, if you don't know the answer,

0:19:58.280 --> 0:20:00.439
<v Speaker 2>you're not sure, why can't you say you don't know?

0:20:01.000 --> 0:20:04.240
<v Speaker 2>And I'll take that for the rest of my broadcasting career.

0:20:05.000 --> 0:20:08.160
<v Speaker 2>If I don't know the answer, I'll I'll be really

0:20:08.200 --> 0:20:11.639
<v Speaker 2>honest and say I don't know. And I think what

0:20:11.720 --> 0:20:15.160
<v Speaker 2>you saw the first night on NBC is what I've

0:20:15.440 --> 0:20:16.600
<v Speaker 2>known and experienced.

0:20:17.040 --> 0:20:19.400
<v Speaker 4>He knows a lot about the team.

0:20:19.440 --> 0:20:21.520
<v Speaker 2>He knows a lot about the players, he knows about

0:20:21.520 --> 0:20:24.480
<v Speaker 2>the makeup, he knows their strengths and weaknesses.

0:20:24.800 --> 0:20:26.280
<v Speaker 4>This guy was very observant.

0:20:26.359 --> 0:20:30.480
<v Speaker 2>He was watching everything, going back to his first day

0:20:30.520 --> 0:20:31.479
<v Speaker 2>in the major leagues.

0:20:31.520 --> 0:20:33.120
<v Speaker 4>He was watching everybody.

0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:35.359
<v Speaker 2>At times he would even try to take a piece

0:20:35.400 --> 0:20:38.359
<v Speaker 2>of different pictures. As great as he was, I remember

0:20:38.400 --> 0:20:41.040
<v Speaker 2>when rich Hill was on the Dodgers, he would drop

0:20:41.080 --> 0:20:43.680
<v Speaker 2>down and try to change shapes of his fastball or

0:20:43.720 --> 0:20:47.320
<v Speaker 2>his curveball, and then Kershaw was dropping down. I mean,

0:20:47.359 --> 0:20:51.000
<v Speaker 2>that's the type of guy he was, and just that

0:20:51.160 --> 0:20:52.560
<v Speaker 2>type of picture he was.

0:20:52.760 --> 0:20:53.880
<v Speaker 4>Even with three.

0:20:53.680 --> 0:20:56.760
<v Speaker 2>Cy youngs and MVP, he was always trying to get

0:20:56.760 --> 0:20:59.679
<v Speaker 2>better or evolve as time went on and stay a

0:20:59.680 --> 0:21:03.800
<v Speaker 2>step ahead. And look, it was my pleasure being around

0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:06.720
<v Speaker 2>him as much as I was and learning as much

0:21:06.720 --> 0:21:09.000
<v Speaker 2>as I did from him, And it's you know, I

0:21:09.000 --> 0:21:11.280
<v Speaker 2>was asking Miguel Rojas back in twenty fourteen.

0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:14.040
<v Speaker 4>It just seems so far away to be where the

0:21:14.080 --> 0:21:15.440
<v Speaker 4>Dodgers are right now.

0:21:15.960 --> 0:21:19.159
<v Speaker 2>You think back to Kershaw's career, the heartbreaking Saint Louis

0:21:19.560 --> 0:21:22.840
<v Speaker 2>in twenty thirteen and twenty fourteen, and look at him now,

0:21:22.920 --> 0:21:24.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean, guy can't stop smiling.

0:21:24.560 --> 0:21:25.240
<v Speaker 4>You think back to.

0:21:25.200 --> 0:21:29.800
<v Speaker 2>Twenty nineteen against the Nationals where he was basically broken

0:21:29.840 --> 0:21:35.160
<v Speaker 2>in that moment, somewhat sobbing in that postgame press conference

0:21:35.200 --> 0:21:38.640
<v Speaker 2>after the Dodgers lost to the Nationals and the Nlds

0:21:38.640 --> 0:21:41.440
<v Speaker 2>in twenty nineteen. And here he is a three time

0:21:41.480 --> 0:21:46.000
<v Speaker 2>World Series champion and played a huge role in two

0:21:46.119 --> 0:21:48.760
<v Speaker 2>of the three and was along for the ride in

0:21:48.800 --> 0:21:51.920
<v Speaker 2>twenty four So couldn't be happier for a guy that

0:21:52.280 --> 0:21:56.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, emptied the tank and maximized all the god

0:21:56.040 --> 0:21:59.520
<v Speaker 2>given talent that he had. Eight six six nine eighty seven,

0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:02.679

<v Speaker 4>Who is going to stop this freight train?

0:22:14.119 --> 0:22:16.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure anybody is, but we'll talk about it

0:22:16.840 --> 0:22:19.679

<v Speaker 2>that conversation with you in just a moment. He stopped

0:22:40.160 --> 0:22:43.480
<v Speaker 2>by the desk here and then for over an hour

0:22:43.720 --> 0:22:47.680
<v Speaker 2>taking photos, listening to people's stories, just being a great

0:22:48.200 --> 0:22:51.879
<v Speaker 2>hero to so many people as he is, and letting

0:22:51.920 --> 0:22:55.439
<v Speaker 2>them share their feelings with him and acknowledging them. He

0:22:55.560 --> 0:22:58.520
<v Speaker 2>wasn't just taking photos, he was actually listening to them,

0:22:58.560 --> 0:23:02.440
<v Speaker 2>and that's always special when you have one of your

0:23:02.480 --> 0:23:05.159
<v Speaker 2>favorite players, and obviously a guy that will live on

0:23:05.280 --> 0:23:08.440
<v Speaker 2>in infamy and Dodger history, not only just be there

0:23:09.040 --> 0:23:12.320

<v Speaker 2>parking lot a WSS twenty seven to eleven East Olympic Boulevard.

0:23:28.320 --> 0:23:31.320
<v Speaker 2>We have Dodger Baseball on the air for you tonight,

0:23:31.720 --> 0:23:35.200
<v Speaker 2>starting at five o'clock with Morongo Casino Dodgers on deck,

0:23:35.240 --> 0:23:39.600
<v Speaker 2>and then first pitch between the Dodgers and Diamondbacks at six'

0:23:39.720 --> 0:23:44.240
<v Speaker 2>Ten Tyler glass now Against Eduardo. Rodriguez and we'll have

0:23:44.400 --> 0:23:49.000
<v Speaker 2>Postgame dodger talk for you as well after tonight's, game

0:23:49.080 --> 0:23:52.040
<v Speaker 2>And rojas more than likely will be in the starting

0:23:52.080 --> 0:23:54.480
<v Speaker 2>lineup for The. Dodgers and you look at The dodgers

0:23:54.560 --> 0:23:58.040
<v Speaker 2>right now as they're. Constructed Alex, friedland the last guy

0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:00.960
<v Speaker 2>to make the. Team last, night hits a home, run

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:04.320
<v Speaker 2>is first of the, season doubles and then scores what

0:24:04.440 --> 0:24:07.800
<v Speaker 2>eventually would be the difference in the game last, night

0:24:07.840 --> 0:24:11.199
<v Speaker 2>as The dodgers Beat arizona five to, four even with

0:24:11.320 --> 0:24:14.720
<v Speaker 2>their starting Pitcher Emmit sheen only going three and a third.

0:24:14.800 --> 0:24:18.640
<v Speaker 2>Inning so that just shows you, know there is some

0:24:18.880 --> 0:24:21.960
<v Speaker 2>vulnerabilities on certain. Nights The dodgers are not going to

0:24:22.000 --> 0:24:25.119
<v Speaker 2>be perfect every, night but even on a night like last,

0:24:25.200 --> 0:24:29.040
<v Speaker 2>Night arizona still couldn't beat The. DODGERS i kind of

0:24:29.040 --> 0:24:32.560
<v Speaker 2>feel like the sweep is, coming and Then cleveland's coming to.

0:24:32.560 --> 0:24:35.679
<v Speaker 2>Town and remember last, year The dodgers got off to

0:24:35.760 --> 0:24:38.080
<v Speaker 2>a great start the first six weeks of the season

0:24:38.160 --> 0:24:41.720
<v Speaker 2>and then somewhat leveled off as they paced themselves for the.

0:24:41.760 --> 0:24:45.720
<v Speaker 2>Postseason but for The dodgers this, year it feels like

0:24:45.760 --> 0:24:49.080
<v Speaker 2>they're just so, deep not only in their starting lineup

0:24:49.160 --> 0:24:51.400
<v Speaker 2>but on their, bench deeper than they were a year.

0:24:51.400 --> 0:24:54.639
<v Speaker 2>Ago and that's not even Counting Tommy edman Or Key

0:24:54.680 --> 0:24:57.040
<v Speaker 2>Key hernandez or on the injured. List to start the,

0:24:57.119 --> 0:25:01.680
<v Speaker 2>year you Got Santiago, espinal you Got Miguil, rojas you Got.

0:25:01.640 --> 0:25:03.320
<v Speaker 4>Alex, call you Got Alex.

0:25:03.359 --> 0:25:07.600
<v Speaker 2>Friedland when you look back at last Year's World series

0:25:07.680 --> 0:25:11.560
<v Speaker 2>and the, Postseason Dave roberts did not have many options

0:25:11.640 --> 0:25:15.560
<v Speaker 2>off the. Bench, yeah he had some defensive replacements, available

0:25:15.640 --> 0:25:20.119
<v Speaker 2>Like pajz who's struggling during the, postseason but he really

0:25:20.160 --> 0:25:23.160
<v Speaker 2>didn't Have when you say pinch hit For Miguel, rojas

0:25:23.200 --> 0:25:25.440
<v Speaker 2>who was going to pinch hit For Miguel. Rojas there

0:25:25.480 --> 0:25:28.760
<v Speaker 2>was nobody better Than Miguel rojas to take that at

0:25:28.800 --> 0:25:32.120
<v Speaker 2>bat in the ninth inning Against Jeff hoffman And Dave

0:25:32.200 --> 0:25:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Roberts gut certainly paid. Off that was the only home

0:25:35.760 --> 0:25:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Run Miguel rojas hit off a right handed pitcher all

0:25:39.680 --> 0:25:44.560
<v Speaker 2>year long last. Season and look The dodgers forced A

0:25:44.640 --> 0:25:47.960
<v Speaker 2>game Seven Bob bashett hits that three run home run

0:25:47.960 --> 0:25:50.880
<v Speaker 2>off Of. Otani you're, thinking oh, boy we had never

0:25:50.920 --> 0:25:54.119
<v Speaker 2>Seen otani doubled over that way on the mound after

0:25:54.560 --> 0:25:57.040
<v Speaker 2>a big hit like. That and they found a way

0:31:54.280 --> 0:31:57.040
<v Speaker 14>who comes to the baseball field every single, day and

0:31:57.080 --> 0:31:59.480
<v Speaker 14>that's why, we, uh we kind of have to put

0:31:59.520 --> 0:32:01.880
<v Speaker 14>a good show every single, night and we have to

0:32:01.880 --> 0:32:04.400
<v Speaker 14>show up and prepare for every single game because there's

0:32:04.440 --> 0:32:06.960
<v Speaker 14>someone new in the stands every. Day SO i think for,

0:32:07.040 --> 0:32:10.480
<v Speaker 14>me doing it every single day is what. Counts but

0:32:10.560 --> 0:32:12.480
<v Speaker 14>when you do it in the biggest station in The

0:32:12.520 --> 0:32:16.680
<v Speaker 14>War series to win a championship for all defens who support.

0:32:16.360 --> 0:32:18.880
<v Speaker 1>Us throughout the whole year and not just last.

0:32:18.960 --> 0:32:20.920
<v Speaker 14>Year BUT i, Mean i've been here for the last

0:32:20.920 --> 0:32:23.280
<v Speaker 14>four and THEN i make my debut in twenty, fourteen

0:32:23.720 --> 0:32:26.400
<v Speaker 14>and it's been the same kind of support to the,

0:32:26.440 --> 0:32:30.800
<v Speaker 14>team regardless of whoever's. Playing But i'm really happy that

0:32:30.840 --> 0:32:33.520
<v Speaker 14>we're going to leave a legacy here that this.

0:32:33.600 --> 0:32:34.720
<v Speaker 4>Team was really.

0:32:34.720 --> 0:32:38.000
<v Speaker 2>Special i'm so glad you brought that, up because when

0:32:38.040 --> 0:32:41.320
<v Speaker 2>you first started with The dodgers in twenty, fourteen it

0:32:41.480 --> 0:32:44.280
<v Speaker 2>just seems so far, away a little bit out of.

0:32:44.400 --> 0:32:47.800
<v Speaker 2>Reach you guys were just missing something or some. Luck

0:32:47.880 --> 0:32:51.400
<v Speaker 2>in twenty fourteen when you guys started this run and

0:32:51.440 --> 0:32:53.560
<v Speaker 2>you were a big part of, it have you had

0:32:53.600 --> 0:32:56.520
<v Speaker 2>a chance to reflect on where it started and where

0:32:56.520 --> 0:32:58.200
<v Speaker 2>it's at right now for you and The.

0:32:58.280 --> 0:33:00.680
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers, YEAH i remember kind of the same.

0:33:00.680 --> 0:33:03.000
<v Speaker 14>Way we have the best player in the in the

0:33:03.040 --> 0:33:06.040
<v Speaker 14>game at the, time On clayton kersher on the mound

0:33:06.080 --> 0:33:09.120
<v Speaker 14>for us every five. Days but definitely when you have

0:33:09.240 --> 0:33:11.960
<v Speaker 14>a team like, that you kind of like continue to

0:33:11.960 --> 0:33:14.480
<v Speaker 14>get to a playoff and and get there every single.

0:33:14.560 --> 0:33:17.400
<v Speaker 14>Year but you couldn't like really put it away because

0:33:18.320 --> 0:33:22.959
<v Speaker 14>you're missing this kind of ability of making this a

0:33:23.040 --> 0:33:26.640
<v Speaker 14>complete family that is coming from all over the. Place

0:33:26.760 --> 0:33:30.200
<v Speaker 14>AND i think a big difference is being kind of

0:33:30.280 --> 0:33:32.800
<v Speaker 14>like the guys who are being the core of this

0:33:32.880 --> 0:33:36.080
<v Speaker 14>team for a long time get together for a few.

0:33:36.120 --> 0:33:39.800
<v Speaker 14>Years so when you see The mookie, Kick Willi smith

0:33:40.000 --> 0:33:41.880
<v Speaker 14>and all these guys kind of grew.

0:33:41.960 --> 0:33:44.920
<v Speaker 1>Together so that's that's when we're seeing right. Now a

0:33:44.920 --> 0:33:45.200
<v Speaker 1>lot of.

0:33:45.240 --> 0:33:49.080
<v Speaker 14>Talent obviously we Show yamamoto and people coming from different,

0:33:49.120 --> 0:33:52.640
<v Speaker 14>places but these guys are the like the column of

0:33:52.680 --> 0:33:56.880
<v Speaker 14>this of this foundation because they really been putting, work

0:33:56.960 --> 0:33:59.920
<v Speaker 14>AND i mean they they got to a wards here

0:34:00.120 --> 0:34:02.840
<v Speaker 14>is they couldn't get it, Done but now is the

0:34:02.920 --> 0:34:05.320
<v Speaker 14>time where they know how to, win and they know

0:34:05.360 --> 0:34:05.760
<v Speaker 14>how to win.

0:34:05.800 --> 0:34:09.200
<v Speaker 2>Together And Miguel rojas a big part of the pillar

0:34:09.280 --> 0:34:10.960

0:36:56.160 --> 0:36:58.759
<v Speaker 14>of remember and and kind of close out the book

0:37:02.040 --> 0:37:03.640
<v Speaker 14>were trying to win a third one in a.

0:37:03.719 --> 0:37:05.279
<v Speaker 2>Row how do you how do you stay in the

0:37:05.320 --> 0:37:08.480

<v Speaker 4>Again, Hey Miguel rojas is AT ws And Borio heights

0:38:21.160 --> 0:38:21.920
<v Speaker 4>and he's going to.

0:38:21.840 --> 0:38:24.400
<v Speaker 2>Be in the starting lineup tonight against THE Lefti Eduardo

0:38:24.560 --> 0:38:28.080
<v Speaker 2>rodriguez first pitch at six.', ten hey going back to,

0:38:28.200 --> 0:38:31.200
<v Speaker 2>last night you're such a guy that is a, vocal

0:38:31.320 --> 0:38:33.840
<v Speaker 2>leader leads, by example work ethic.

0:38:33.920 --> 0:38:35.520
<v Speaker 4>Every day otani is the.

0:38:35.560 --> 0:38:37.919
<v Speaker 2>Same way how about is that bat in the eighth

0:38:37.960 --> 0:38:41.600
<v Speaker 2>inning last Night after freeland got the leadoff double for

0:38:41.719 --> 0:38:44.319
<v Speaker 2>him to hit the ball to the right side to

0:38:44.400 --> 0:38:47.440
<v Speaker 2>get free in the third Base. For tucker does that

0:38:47.480 --> 0:38:50.240
<v Speaker 2>go unnoticed by everybody in the dugout or.

0:38:50.320 --> 0:38:52.000
<v Speaker 4>Is that just something that.

0:38:52.400 --> 0:38:55.319
<v Speaker 1>Should, HAPPEN yeah i mean it will Never.

0:38:55.360 --> 0:39:00.120
<v Speaker 14>Go nutice we totally understand the quality of players we

0:39:00.239 --> 0:39:02.160
<v Speaker 14>have and the talent that we have in this clubhouse

0:39:02.600 --> 0:39:06.399
<v Speaker 14>and around, this team but the willingness and the own

0:39:06.400 --> 0:39:09.480
<v Speaker 14>selfishness to kind of take that boat knowing that we

0:39:09.520 --> 0:39:10.839
<v Speaker 14>don't need a, Home run we just need.

0:39:10.760 --> 0:39:11.560
<v Speaker 1>To get that guy over to.

0:39:11.600 --> 0:39:14.359
<v Speaker 14>Third base he got down in the hole with two

0:39:14.400 --> 0:39:17.440
<v Speaker 14>strikes early. On him he was able to take some

0:39:17.560 --> 0:39:20.640
<v Speaker 14>tough pitches and then all of a sudden there's a

0:39:20.640 --> 0:39:22.319
<v Speaker 14>pitch up in the souna and he's rolling over a

0:39:22.320 --> 0:39:24.520
<v Speaker 14>ball to. Second base the best player in the world.

0:39:24.560 --> 0:39:25.920
<v Speaker 14>Doing that that set the tone for.

0:39:25.960 --> 0:39:27.520
<v Speaker 1>The rest, you know if.

0:39:27.400 --> 0:39:31.120
<v Speaker 14>The best player in the war back TO back mvp

0:39:31.600 --> 0:39:34.360
<v Speaker 14>or three times in a row and FOUR times mvp is,

0:39:34.400 --> 0:39:37.759
<v Speaker 14>doing that everybody else is gonna. Follow SUIT so i

0:39:37.800 --> 0:39:41.560
<v Speaker 14>feel like that's.

0:39:40.080 --> 0:39:43.279
<v Speaker 1>The beauty and the how pretty this.

0:39:43.360 --> 0:39:45.560
<v Speaker 14>Team is because we're full, of talent we're full, of

0:39:45.600 --> 0:39:48.000
<v Speaker 14>starts and we all. Understand that but at the, same

0:39:48.040 --> 0:39:53.120
<v Speaker 14>time we all understand that there's things to be needs

0:39:53.120 --> 0:39:56.160
<v Speaker 14>to be done during the game that it doesn't acquire

0:39:56.200 --> 0:39:58.759
<v Speaker 14>to be, so talented which is like running hard to

0:39:58.800 --> 0:40:01.640
<v Speaker 14>first base or in, your teammates being on the bench.

0:40:01.680 --> 0:40:04.440
<v Speaker 1>FOR others i think that's that's what we do.

0:40:04.920 --> 0:40:08.880
<v Speaker 14>Really good and we don't ride those roller coasters of emotions.

0:40:08.880 --> 0:40:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Too much we're trying to stay level as much as.

0:40:11.160 --> 0:40:12.160
<v Speaker 4>We can and the.

0:40:12.239 --> 0:40:15.239
<v Speaker 14>Emotional one you can be emotional because you don't have

0:40:15.239 --> 0:40:17.200
<v Speaker 14>a bad in, your hand. You know but at the

0:40:17.280 --> 0:40:20.120
<v Speaker 14>end of, the day, it's like how can we maintain

0:40:20.200 --> 0:40:24.120
<v Speaker 14>the level of excellence throughout the year and then when,

0:40:24.160 --> 0:40:26.680
<v Speaker 14>we're down we're not gonna look like we. Sow down

0:40:26.760 --> 0:40:29.640
<v Speaker 14>and when, we're up we're gonna enjoy it if we

0:40:29.640 --> 0:40:31.840
<v Speaker 14>Win The, world series because that's the. Ultimate goal but

0:40:32.239 --> 0:40:34.319
<v Speaker 14>a game is, a game and we need to win

0:40:34.360 --> 0:40:34.879
<v Speaker 14>the win.

0:40:34.960 --> 0:40:37.520
<v Speaker 1>Them all so if we don't win, them all that's.

0:40:37.280 --> 0:40:42.640
<v Speaker 14>Gonna be a we're not gonna get what we want
