He improved a 0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:23.920 five and two on this season and lowered as I 0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:26.400 had a zero point eight two. 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:29.640 Just ridiculous. And afterwards show Hey talk with the media. 0:09:29.840 --> 0:09:31.560 Show when you look at just how you were able 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.520 to navigate through the Rockies lineup, what did you find 0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:36.360 just being the biggest challenge and how you were able 0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:36.880 to get through it. 0:09:36.880 --> 0:09:54.360 Today Nayotoba makotos I was just battling the lack of 0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:55.800 command I had throughout the night. 0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:58.600 We have situations like this, what is the biggest focus 0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:00.559 for you and how you kind of went to say 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:02.680 their stay in the zone or be efficient to try 0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:04.559 to as you were able to get their six innings 0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:06.040 of work, you know, being even negated. 0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:10.760 My musket chose to not. 0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:22.720 Listening up defenso given though. 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:31.600 The least, yeah, I have to give credit to our defense. 0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:35.959 They really you know, set the tone today Again, just 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:38.160 command was off and just I just felt like I 0:10:38.280 --> 0:10:39.920 was battling the the lack. 0:10:39.800 --> 0:10:41.040 Of it and the frustration. 0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:44.840 So this is being most animated or frustrated that you've 0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:46.040 seen me lately on the mountain? 0:10:46.040 --> 0:10:48.760 What late, what led into some of that monistration fustration 0:10:49.720 --> 0:10:49.920 got me? 0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:55.559 It's done to listen them out. 0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:08.720 Recognized too that there wasn't taking the skill not I mean, 0:11:08.760 --> 0:11:13.679 they are topments, just way too many walks, and of 0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:15.240 course you want to avoid the hits. 0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:18.760 But the result of that was a lot of walks today, 0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:22.280 and that's something that I just I don't really want to. 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:24.480 Do despite the command issues that could kind of have 0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:25.640 the last couple of games. 0:11:25.920 --> 0:11:27.760 I was probably taking a kind of success. 0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:29.400 You had the results you had the last two. 0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:31.000 Games demo. 0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:43.160 Quote us, and I do know what it might uno. 0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:47.959 The takeaway if any of the positive is that they 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:51.240 didn't really have me hard hits. And that's something I'm 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:53.760 gonna you know, that's the positive. 0:11:55.600 --> 0:11:56.960 If I could have finish off. 0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:07.719 That non. 0:12:05.840 --> 0:12:15.080 Listen so you. 0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:29.480 Uh, JUVENI not to you good as to walk take another. 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:34.320 And the bullpen has been just consistent, done a great 0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:37.280 job all year round. And I think we're setting the 0:12:37.320 --> 0:12:39.040 tone to where as long as we have the lead 0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:42.400 by the seventh we can just you know, hand the 0:12:42.440 --> 0:12:45.719 baton and and you know, win the game. So in 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:48.160 that sense, the really the only job for us to 0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:49.800 do is make sure we have the lead in the 0:12:49.880 --> 0:12:52.920 seventh offensively and Uh as a starting pitcher. 0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:55.520 There's show Hey TONI post game on Wednesday Dodgers Baseball 0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:58.080 brought to you by Cars for Kids Donate now Cars 0:12:58.120 --> 0:13:00.640 for Kids dot Org.

No, 0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:03.480 it wasn't. 0:15:03.560 --> 0:15:05.240 I was just I closed my eyes and tried to 0:15:05.280 --> 0:15:08.040 pick it.

So you're just trying to 0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:14.560 catch the ball at first base, and thankfully I did. 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:17.640 When you saw the home run the other night, it 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:21.040 was the same pitch that was thrown to a Tani tonight. Sigano, 0:15:21.480 --> 0:15:24.760 you guys both hit home runs. How much of the 0:15:24.880 --> 0:15:27.600 way he pitches, though, Tani? Is he pitching Freddy Freeman? 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:29.080 Well, I need him to hit a home run every 0:15:29.080 --> 0:15:30.960 time then so I could start hitting home runs together. 0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:35.760 But I mean, I hope everyone realizes what just an 0:15:35.800 --> 0:15:38.520 incredible thing.

We're counting division leads and 0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:02.240 pay David.

Dodgers 0:16:53.440 --> 0:16:55.920 Baseball brought to you by l Potel, born in LA 0:16:56.040 --> 0:16:58.840 and made for your game day.

He's 0:17:50.440 --> 0:17:53.560 starting to have his his games where he shows, you know, 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:57.000 the type of player he is. I really feel like 0:17:57.160 --> 0:18:00.960 he's going to continue to show and get better as 0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:03.760 the season goes on. And you know, a guy like Tucker, 0:18:03.840 --> 0:18:05.520 you bring him in so he can get that big, 0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:07.879 big hit or two in the playoffs that you're gonna need. So, 0:18:09.240 --> 0:18:12.760 you know, when when we sign him and people were 0:18:12.840 --> 0:18:14.520 like super excited, I was like, well, what do you 0:18:14.640 --> 0:18:17.840 expect out of him? And a lot of the expectations 0:18:17.880 --> 0:18:19.480 were a little too much in my opinion. You know, 0:18:19.520 --> 0:18:21.080 they were thinking, oh, we're gonna get a guy that 0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:24.480 hits close to three hundred with thirty five homers and 0:18:24.520 --> 0:18:26.800 one hundred and twenty rblse. I was like, I don't 0:18:26.840 --> 0:18:29.000 think you're gonna get that out of him. I think 0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:33.000 you're gonna get, you know, a guy that hit protects 0:18:33.040 --> 0:18:35.760 your lineup, sits in the middle of the order and 0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:38.200 comes up with some big hits and uh, and so 0:18:38.600 --> 0:18:40.320 for me, I think obviously he got off to this 0:18:40.400 --> 0:18:42.080 little start, but I think he's starting to show who 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:43.960 he is and what we need out of him. 0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:47.440 I mean it feels like, obviously the salary for one 0:18:47.560 --> 0:18:50.880 year is astronomical, but how unfair is that to him 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:53.920 to say, well, you're making that, so you should do X, 0:18:54.080 --> 0:18:56.680 Y and Z, when that's something he's never done in 0:18:56.760 --> 0:18:57.399 his career. 0:18:58.200 --> 0:18:58.400 Yeah. 0:18:58.640 --> 0:19:00.920 I think last year he got up to a great start, 0:19:01.000 --> 0:19:02.840 which made people feel that way, but then you know, 0:19:03.160 --> 0:19:06.120 he had a few injuries. The salary is a big number, 0:19:06.200 --> 0:19:07.639 and so like that is a part that you have 0:19:07.760 --> 0:19:12.200 to pay a pay attention to. But to me, you know, 0:19:12.480 --> 0:19:15.760 he is an all star, he is a great player. 0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:18.920 But I would not put that kind of pressure to 0:19:19.000 --> 0:19:20.440 say you need to go out there and hit three 0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:22.600 hundred with thirty five and one twenty on him, like 0:19:22.720 --> 0:19:26.680 that's that's that's that's putting a little too much expectations there. 0:19:27.600 --> 0:19:30.399 I think he's he's a great to to eighty with 0:19:30.640 --> 0:19:33.639 with twenty five homers and a hundred RBI guy and 0:19:33.840 --> 0:19:35.520 if he if you can put your mind on that, 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:39.080 I think you'll enjoy the player he is and what 0:19:39.200 --> 0:19:42.280 he brings to the table, playing great defense, running the 0:19:42.359 --> 0:19:45.400 bases right, being a great teammate, and helping the team 0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:46.600 win another championship. 0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:49.680 So Adrian Gonzalez, I think, really laid it out pretty 0:19:49.720 --> 0:19:53.000
