Last night in Saint Louis, 0:01:38.640 --> 0:01:41.560 a rough start for the Dodgers. Immitt Sheen on the 0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:44.600 mound and in the first he got into trouble runners 0:01:44.640 --> 0:01:47.440 on second and third with two outs, Immage Sheen balked 0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:50.280 in a run the first run of the game, given 0:01:50.320 --> 0:01:54.800 the Cardinals a one nothing lead. Then Nolan Gorman tacked on. 0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:57.240 Moore and now delivers the three too. It's swung on 0:01:57.400 --> 0:02:03.560 and crushed deep right field. It's gone a two run 0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:06.559 home run for Gorman. It's three nothing Cardinals. 0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:11.240 Just like that, three to nothing. The Cardinals led after 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.880 one inning as the Dodgers down but not out completely. 0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:17.440 In the second, they get runners on two outs for 0:02:17.520 --> 0:02:18.120 Max Mounsey. 0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:21.440 Oh two pitch and Max Wings hits a drive deep 0:02:21.480 --> 0:02:23.880 to left center field, heading back to the wall and 0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:27.679 is off the wall rounding third already as Pie is, 0:02:27.760 --> 0:02:30.560 he'll come indo score and pulling in with a two 0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:34.560 out run scoring double is Max Munsey. It's three to one. 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:37.360 He Dodgers on the board. Thanks to Max Munsey with 0:02:37.440 --> 0:02:41.880 the RBI double as for monthly RBI number twelve on 0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:44.480 this season, his fifth double of the year. But the 0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:46.880 Cardinals got the run right back in the bottom of 0:02:46.919 --> 0:02:49.480 the third Alec burleson a home run down the right 0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:52.800 field line, just inside the fair fool as he hits 0:02:52.800 --> 0:02:56.000 it out for a four to one Cardinals lead. The 0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:58.360 Dodgers of the sack fly from Kyle Tucker in the 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:01.040 sixth made it a four too game, but then things 0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:04.040 unraveled in the seventh inning as the Cardinals scored three 0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:06.919 more runs. They go on and beat the Dodgers last 0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:10.240 night seven to two. The Dodgers scored two runs on 0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:13.880 seven hits, but had two costly airs in the game. 0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:16.839 Matthew Libertard pitched into the sixth thinning to get the win, 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:19.760 his first of the year. Imit Sheen pitched into the fifth, 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:23.760 officially four and two thirds four runs all earned, eight hits, 0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:27.200 eight strikeouts, no walks, but the Bok brought in a 0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:29.120 one and then a couple of home runs. He threw 0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:32.080 ninety seven pitches, but imag Sheen gets tagged with the 0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:35.440 losses first of this season, and Guardo Nriqez ended up 0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:37.600 giving up three runs in the seventh inning as the 0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:40.840 Dodgers just could not come back. They dropped the Cardinals 0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:43.680 seven to two, as the Dodgers fall to twenty and 0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:47.480 twelve overall on this season. As the Dodgers, right now 0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:50.200 flowing around five hundred baseball the last week or so, 0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:53.360 look to get back on track in St. Louis, game 0:03:53.440 --> 0:03:57.520 two of this three game weekend series. Roki Sasaki on 0:03:57.600 --> 0:04:00.320 the mount, first pitch coming up at four fifteen, and 0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:03.200 with more we head out to the galloping four broadcast 0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:05.880 booth as we say hello to Tim Neverett and Rick Monday. 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:09.040 Guys, tam thanks very much. Nice day here. A little 0:04:09.040 --> 0:04:12.320 on the cool side once again as the Dodgers and 0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:14.680 Cardinals get sent for game two of this three game 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:18.800 weekend series. Cardinals winning the opener last night by a 0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:22.400 seven to two score. They are now nineteen and thirteen. 0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:25.400 They've won five straight and during those five games have 0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:29.719 outscored the opposition thirty seven to twenty. The Dodgers meantime 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:32.560 twenty to twelve. They remained a half game in front 0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:35.240 of the Padres in the National League Western Division, but 0:04:35.279 --> 0:04:38.279 they've scored only five runs in the last three games 0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:41.960 in their first three game losing skid of the season. 0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:45.200 They look the break out of it today. Roki Sasaki 0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:48.039 on the hill. He's one and two. Michael McGreevy, you know, 0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:50.640 the right hander also one and two, the pitcher for 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:54.000 the Cardinals, and moll That's been the question about the 0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:56.400 Dodgers is where did the bats go? 0:04:56.880 --> 0:05:00.280 Well, the bats right now are taking a nap. Not 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:02.560 only have they scored just the five runs in the 0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:06.120 three games you mentioned, they've allowed twelve and with runners 0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:09.159 in scoring position in a three game loss, collectively hitting 0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:10.559 just one sixty seven. 0:05:10.640 --> 0:05:11.520 That's going to change. 0:05:11.560 --> 0:05:12.960 It needs to change a. 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:13.560 Couple of guys. 0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:15.840 You know, there's been some I can't say flu that's 0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:18.680 going around, a couple of guys under the weather. If 0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:21.000 we look at Freddy Freeman last night, found out after 0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:23.200 the ballgame that actually told his manager, Hey, look, I 0:05:23.240 --> 0:05:24.720 don't know if I could go the entire game, but 0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:27.120 I'll give you exactly what I've got. He was in 0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:29.560 there for nine innings. So yeah, it's one of those 0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:33.599 areas that the bats are rather silent overall. I mean, 0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:36.360 you look at the Tiascar Herdanez the last sixteen games 0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:39.520 hitting at buck sixty for Andy pie Haz, he's cooled 0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:41.720 off the last thirteen games hitting at one eighty eight. 0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:44.520 The one guy that is really doing the job is 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:48.520 Max Munsey. The last thirteen games, He's hitting well over 0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:52.120 three fifty with ten extra base hits in those thirteen games. 0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:54.279 Yeah, Munsey's getting it done on the other side of 0:05:54.279 --> 0:05:57.480 the coin. In his last thirteen games, Andy Piez is 0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:00.599 hitting only one eighty eight no home runs during that time. 0:06:00.960 --> 0:06:03.760 His average in the last two weeks has dropped ninety 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:04.320 five points. 0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:07.360 Yeah, it's dropped. One thing that I did see and 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:11.200 looking earlier today about the ball clubs and how they're 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:17.400 doing things. Defensive runs saved the DRS is the initials 0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:19.839 you look at it. The Dodgers are second best in 0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:23.159 Major League Baseball. They have saved twenty two different runs. 0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:25.839 So the defense has been there. Now the question is 0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:28.520 going to be, I think the starting rotation with rookie Sasaki. 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:30.240 We'll talk about him a little bit later on in 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:32.839 the pregame show. But the bats, yes, they need to 0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:36.159 come alive. They've created a few opportunities, but they've not 0:06:36.200 --> 0:06:37.240 been able to cash in. 0:06:37.600 --> 0:06:41.480 Cardinal bats have been red hot. Over the last seven games. 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:44.560 They've had sixteen home runs. They've had homers in seven straight. 0:06:44.880 --> 0:06:48.440 He's on the Dodgers over their last ten games, only 0:06:48.560 --> 0:06:51.000 three home runs. That's the fewest they've had in a 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:56.360 ten game span since July of twenty fourteen. So they've 0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:57.440 got a home run draft too. 0:06:57.560 --> 0:06:59.720 Yeah, And if you look at it these two ball clubs, 0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:01.320 you say, well, if you're going to balance the home 0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:03.719 runs of the power department, the numbers, you miss Mitch 0:07:03.800 --> 0:07:06.200 with the Dodgers, but for the Cardinals, they'd had home 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:09.760 runs in seven consecutive ball games. And if you look 0:07:09.760 --> 0:07:11.680 it over the last number of days too. You know, 0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:15.160 the sixteen home runs in that span of winning a 0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:18.600 lot of ballgames, seven consecutive games on top of that. 0:07:18.760 --> 0:07:21.600 So yeah, they're fourth as far as high number of 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:23.400 home runs in that period of time. 0:07:23.600 --> 0:07:25.920 Great thing about baseball you never know what you're going to, 0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:29.040 never know, and there's peaks and valleys and there's always 0:07:29.120 --> 0:07:31.280 a way out. And the Dodgers still with one of 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:35.360 the top offenses in all of baseball. Dodgers Cardinals. Roki 0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:39.920 Sasaki pitching for the Dodgers. Michael McGreevy for the Cards. 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:42.600 Tim all right, thank you guys. Dodgers going to play. 0:07:42.640 --> 0:07:45.600 Despite losing three in a row and just four and 0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:48.040 six in their last ten, there's still a half game 0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:50.840 up with the San Diego Padres and the NL West. 0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:53.760 As the Padres have cooled off, they have lost three 0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:56.080 in a row and are playing five hundred baseball the 0:07:56.200 --> 0:07:58.960 last two weeks. So the Dodgers a half game lead 0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:01.440 in the division, and we of course counting down to 0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:03.840 first pitch. Dodger fans get that game day meal on. 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:06.640 How about Shaky's Pizza Parlor sounds pretty good right now? 0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:09.360 You can order your Shaky's Pizza Chicken and Mojo's at 0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:11.920 Shaky's dot Com.

I'm Tim Kase's the back 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:42.640 to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network. 0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:55.680 This is Morongo Cassino Dodgers on. 0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:58.960 Your home for La Dodgers Baseball. 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:04.199 Leading up to Dodgers and Cardinals on this Saturday afternoon. 0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:06.760 Dodgers in Saint Louis for the weekend. Dropped the opener 0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:10.560 last night, seven to two. Rookie Sasaki. Michael McGreevy, the 0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:13.760 pitching matchup from Bush Stadium. First pitch coming up at 0:09:13.800 --> 0:09:14.560 four fifteen. 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:18.960 This is the Otani rewhy. 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:21.000 Well last night. The Dodgers scored just two runs on 0:09:21.080 --> 0:09:23.600 seven hits, a couple of airs defensively in the seven 0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:26.000 to two loss. Shoey Otani at the top of the order, 0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:29.960 zero for five with the strikeout. Now yesterday, May first, 0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:32.319 and of course David Veasse talking to show Heotani a 0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:35.240 few weeks ago, said April's a slow month. May he'll 0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:37.760 get it going. Let's look back at April for show 0:09:37.800 --> 0:09:40.079 Hey Otani. In ninety five at bats he hit two 0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:45.480 eighty four with six home runs, six doubles and thirteen RBI. 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:49.600 Also walked seventeen times with a nine three three ops. 0:09:49.640 --> 0:09:52.480 Those are really good numbers for anybody in baseball. So 0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:55.800 excited to see shoey Otani himself saying that always in 0:09:55.840 --> 0:09:58.000 the month of May he gets things going even hotter. 0:09:58.080 --> 0:10:00.120 And if you can tap on what he did in 0:10:00.160 --> 0:10:02.120 April and get take it to the next level, look out, 0:10:02.360 --> 0:10:05.480 because show Hail Tani is about to bust out. Well 0:10:05.559 --> 0:10:07.600 yesterday image she and pitched into the fifth inning and 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:10.040 give it four runs on eight hits, struck out eight, 0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:12.600 took the loss and all unraveled though in the first 0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:14.640 inning runners on second and third where he got called 0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:17.319 for a balk, and afterwards image She and caught off 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:19.720 while they're on Kirsten Watson in the media. 0:10:19.520 --> 0:10:21.760 Met some mistake. I didn't share that I was switching 0:10:21.800 --> 0:10:22.680 to the the stretch. 0:10:22.679 --> 0:10:23.240 I know the rule. 0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:25.960 It was just in the moment I didn't declare it, 0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:27.280 and yeah, unacceptable. 0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:30.320 And you look at just kind of what followed after that. 0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:32.160 Did it just feel like things kind of went in 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:33.120 a little haywire there? 0:10:34.040 --> 0:10:37.079 Yeah, I mean maybe a little bit, just kind of 0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:41.680 have a better execution on that fastball to Gorman. Other 0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:45.480 than that, yeah, just just frustrating. I you know, stuff 0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:48.640 wasn't where it should be. Delivery is still a little 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:50.800 out of whack, but we're going to stay on. 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:53.600 It all right, image She and after the loss last night, 0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:55.240 the balk in the first in and the two run 0:10:55.240 --> 0:10:57.360 home run from Gorman and gave it three in the first, 0:10:57.600 --> 0:10:59.120 ended up pitching at the fifth inning and give it 0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:02.040 the four earned runs on eight hits, no walks, eight strikeouts, 0:11:02.080 --> 0:11:03.920 a couple of home runs. His immachine gets tacked with 0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:06.920 its first loss of the year.

David Vats he's gonna 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:24.080 join us. He'll go one on one with Mariatchi, Jojo Kelly. 0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:26.560 But I'm an next your injury report and we'll hear 0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:28.640 from the manager. Day Roberts, who was not a happy 0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:31.520 postgame last night. So leads up to Dodgers and Cardinals 0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:34.000 on this Saturday, first pitch, four fifteen. I'm Tim Kates 0:11:34.040 --> 0:11:36.640 is the back to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network. 0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:48.560 This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck on your home 0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:51.520 for the Blue all season long. 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:56.760 Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck continues on this Saturday afternoon 0:11:56.880 --> 0:12:00.800 Dodgers and the Cardinals Marongo Casino Resort a Spa, a 0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:04.840 Grand Slam for good times, Roki Sasaki and Michael McGreevy. 0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:07.040 The pitching matchup. We'll dive deeper to the numbers with 0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:10.640 Creevy from San Clemente. First pitch from Saint Louis coming 0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:11.800 up at four fifteen. 0:12:12.520 --> 0:12:17.079 This is the LA Dodgers injury report. 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:19.480 Well a long list for the Dodgers. On the injury 0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:22.600 report presented by UCLA Healthy Official medical partner of the 0:12:22.600 --> 0:12:25.360 Los Angeles Dodgers. Edwin Diaz on the IL after having 0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:28.880 elbow surgery about ten days ago. Been Casparius on the 0:12:28.920 --> 0:12:32.320 IL with right shoulder inflammation. Mookie Betts working his way 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:34.960 back off the IL with the right oblique train. Tommy Edmond, 0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.240 who you heard from last night with David Vass right 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:39.640 here on Dodgers on deck, still recovering from the offseason 0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:43.760 ankle surgery. Blake Snell on the IL with left shoulder swordis. 0:12:44.000 --> 0:12:46.480 He has made two appearances on Ontario and a ball. 0:12:46.520 --> 0:12:49.160 He's also threw a bullpen session yesterday. He's with the 0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:52.400 team in Saint Louis, so that is positive news. Also 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:55.960 positive news. Brock Stewart, who has been in the minor 0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:59.199 leagues in a ball Ontario, rapping up to come back 0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:01.439 and help out this Dodge your bullpen. Brock Stewart was 0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:03.640 acquired last year got hurt, did not help him out. 0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:06.480 In October, he made two appearances in a ball already 0:13:06.480 --> 0:13:09.040 allowed just two base runners across two outings. And then 0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:11.400 Triple A has really pitched well and back to back 0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:14.400 outing struck out nine over four to third scoreless indings 0:13:14.440 --> 0:13:16.920 in his time with OKC and Triple A. So it 0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:20.040 looks like any day now brock Stewart could be activated 0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:22.480 and joining this Dodgers' bullpen, which is a much needed 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:25.040 arm down there. And the bully Bruce dark Radols on 0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:27.320 the il, he too is in Oklahoma City on a 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:30.640 rehab assignment. He's gonna schedule to pitch tonight in some capacity. 0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:32.240 It to be his first time on the mount in 0:13:32.280 --> 0:13:35.760 a game since Game five of the twenty twenty four 0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:39.079 World Series. Alright, let's head back out to Saint Louis. 0:13:39.080 --> 0:13:41.480 Certainly the Dodgers lost last night seven to two. A 0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:43.880 couple of airs, did not look well on defense, didn't 0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:46.920 get those timely hits, and afterwards, here's the manager, Dave Roberts. 0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:48.319 Anything Dave. 0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:52.240 Do you questions for Dave? Dave? Can you just describe Dave? 0:13:52.320 --> 0:13:54.800 Can you talk about the pressure in. 0:13:54.800 --> 0:13:57.120 The dugouts with Dave Roberts. 0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:02.240 Yeah, I thought, uh, you know, certain guys swung the 0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:08.520 bats well. Freddie Tucks coming out of it. You know, 0:14:08.720 --> 0:14:12.680 other guys are still trying to find their way. Yeah, 0:14:12.800 --> 0:14:15.040 I mean I don't have an answer for tonight. Obviously, 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:17.960 you know, they got big hits. There were some line 0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:21.680 drives that you know, didn't you know that we're right 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:25.200 at guys, but you know, in total, they swung the 0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:28.280 back better than we did, and we didn't play well enough. 0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:31.040 You look at just Emmitt's first ending of work. What 0:14:31.200 --> 0:14:34.240 stood out to you in that one and honestly kind 0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:36.480 of how he was able to bounce back pretty quickly 0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:38.920 after it, but ultimately just the stuff not really being 0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:39.440 there today. 0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:46.440 I think a little bit that that balk kind of 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:50.280 rattle them a little bit, you know, he declared, and 0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:53.040 then the third pitch he went back to the stretch, 0:14:53.200 --> 0:14:56.000 which you know, by by a rule, that's a balk, 0:14:56.080 --> 0:14:59.640 and I think he was flustered, and then you know, 0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:03.520 fast ball up and away guys it, you know, hits 0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:06.760 a homer there. But yeah, after that, I thought he 0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:09.800 settled in nicely and got back to his pitch count. 0:15:09.800 --> 0:15:13.480 And you know, for me, after he gave up that 0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:16.240 double to Walker. We was just trying to limit damage 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:18.320 and keep the game as close as we could, and 0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:21.120 you know, Jack induced a fly ball, and you know, 0:15:21.160 --> 0:15:23.480 but again we just couldn't really push anything across tonight. 0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:26.160 All right, there's a manager Dave Roberts, certainly not happy 0:15:26.240 --> 0:15:28.400 last night after his seven to two loss Dodgers a 0:15:28.400 --> 0:15:32.200 couple of airs defensively the back as Immachiean gets tagged 0:15:32.200 --> 0:15:34.920 with the losses first of the seasons. The Dodgers look 0:15:34.960 --> 0:15:36.880 to bounce back this afternoon, though game two of his 0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:39.880 three game set from Saint Louis. When we continue here 0:15:39.920 --> 0:15:42.080 on Wrongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, we will check in 0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:45.360 with the David Vasse as we lean you up to 0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:47.880 first pitch. I'm Tim Kass, the back to back World 0:15:47.920 --> 0:15:50.480 Series champion Dodgers Audio Network. 0:15:58.200 --> 0:16:03.400 As we were saying, is Marongo Casino Dodgers on deck 0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:08.960 on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball. 0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:12.320 He's a Dodgers and Cardinals on this Saturday, Rokie Sasaki 0:16:12.360 --> 0:16:15.160 Michael McCreevy the pitching matchup. First pitch from Saint Louis 0:16:15.160 --> 0:16:18.040 coming up at four fifteen. Dodgers Baseball is brought to 0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:20.400 you by al Pato born in La Made for your 0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:23.960 game day. Al Poto brings authentic Mexican style tomato sauces, 0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:27.800 salsa's hot sauces right to your table, al Poto Gourmet 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:28.600 and a can. 0:16:30.920 --> 0:16:33.360 Joining Tim Kats on Dodgers on Deck. 0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:35.200 I accept everybody for who they are. 0:16:35.320 --> 0:16:38.840 This is Dodger insider David base. 0:16:38.960 --> 0:16:43.320 Right, dv Rokie Sisaki on the mound. Which Rochi we 0:16:43.400 --> 0:16:44.080 getting today? 0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:47.760 Well, you hope it's the one that will bounce off 0:16:47.800 --> 0:16:52.240 of last start where he threw fifty three percent strikes 0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:55.280 with his splitter. He threw that more than we've ever 0:16:55.400 --> 0:16:58.160 seen in any of his major league starts, and he 0:16:58.200 --> 0:17:00.360 threw it more for a strike than we've ever seen 0:17:00.360 --> 0:17:03.760 it before. And he actually worked with Mark Pryor in 0:17:03.840 --> 0:17:09.560 between starts to get that splitter thrown harder than more 0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:12.600 than just kind of a forkball screwball that had a 0:17:12.640 --> 0:17:16.560 lot less spin than what we saw last Saturday at 0:17:16.560 --> 0:17:19.520 Dodgers Stadium. So let's see how it looks today. But 0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:22.520 I mean, I go back to what Dave Roberts said 0:17:22.520 --> 0:17:25.520 in Denver. He doesn't know what to expect, So how 0:17:25.560 --> 0:17:27.240 are we supposed to know what to. 0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:30.920 Expect whatever happens today on the mound for rookie DV 0:17:31.080 --> 0:17:33.800 will this determine you think if he stays in the rotation? 0:17:34.440 --> 0:17:37.359 You know everybody's saying this weekend is kind of a 0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:42.400 tryout between Sheehan, Roki, and Robleski to see who starts 0:17:42.880 --> 0:17:45.679 when Blake Snell comes back and who maybe moved to 0:17:45.720 --> 0:17:49.720 the bullpen or to the miners. I actually believe Roki's 0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:54.719 in a class of himself, and nobody has fully wrapped 0:17:54.720 --> 0:17:57.199 their head around what the Dodger's thinking is when it 0:17:57.280 --> 0:18:00.280 comes to Roking and how much leash they're going to 0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:03.480 give him in the starting rotation pitching once a week. 0:18:03.920 --> 0:18:09.480 But it's conceivable that either Sheehan or Robleski go to 0:18:09.560 --> 0:18:14.760 the bullpen and are that piggyback starter for Rokie, similar 0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:17.359 to what we saw the first two months of last year. 0:18:17.480 --> 0:18:19.360 I wouldn't rule it out, but if you look at 0:18:19.359 --> 0:18:22.360 it on the surface, out of these three starters we're 0:18:22.400 --> 0:18:26.720 singing Saint Louis this weekend, Robleski was outpitched both Roki 0:18:26.880 --> 0:18:28.680 and Shehn this season. 0:18:28.400 --> 0:18:28.760 No doubt. 0:18:28.800 --> 0:18:30.440 David is brought to you by the Fort Maverick Motor 0:18:30.480 --> 0:18:32.400 Trends at North American Truck of the Year, the Ford 0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:34.880 Maverick Everything you need, the most innovative truck with forty 0:18:34.880 --> 0:18:37.520 two miles per gallon at the best MSRP of its category. 0:18:37.640 --> 0:18:39.360 Time to see Ford in a new LG. You're Southern 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:42.320 California for dealers today. Tommy Edman, he had a chance 0:18:42.320 --> 0:18:43.920 to catch up with the last night here on Dodgers 0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:46.040 on Deck. What is the latest with that ankle? 0:18:46.440 --> 0:18:49.560 Yeah, it feels like nobody's really talking about Tommy Edmond 0:18:49.600 --> 0:18:53.639 and how important he is to this Dodger roster. He 0:18:53.680 --> 0:18:57.119 had off season right ankle surgery. He's been slow to 0:18:57.160 --> 0:18:59.680 come back, and here's what he told us as far 0:18:59.720 --> 0:19:02.560 as where he's at in the recovery from that right 0:19:02.600 --> 0:19:03.520 ankle surgery. 0:19:04.160 --> 0:19:06.440 Yeah, you know, it's it's tough. It's it's tough when 0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:09.879 you know, we're baseball players and you know, or a 0:19:09.920 --> 0:19:11.600 lot of the time we find our value and just 0:19:11.600 --> 0:19:13.280 like how we're contributing on the field. But you know, 0:19:13.320 --> 0:19:15.240 I'm trying to do everything I can to, you know, 0:19:15.320 --> 0:19:17.080 just stay part of the team and and be the 0:19:17.080 --> 0:19:19.840 best cheerleader that I can be, and you know, just 0:19:19.840 --> 0:19:22.159 supporting the supporting everybody supporting all the guys who are 0:19:22.200 --> 0:19:24.600 going through the grind and you know, hopefully I'll be 0:19:24.640 --> 0:19:25.280 a part of it soon. 0:19:25.640 --> 0:19:27.560 Have some of the young guys try to lean on you, 0:19:27.640 --> 0:19:30.600 like Alex Friedland, maybe he's Sun Kim here and there. 0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:34.520 Yeah, you know, it's it's tough. You've seen, uh, you know, 0:19:35.000 --> 0:19:37.760 seeing everybody go through the stuff of a regular season, 0:19:37.760 --> 0:19:39.960 you know, all the ups and downs, and you know, 0:19:40.080 --> 0:19:42.200 me not really not being able to to relate since 0:19:42.200 --> 0:19:45.320 I'm not playing, But you know, I've I've been able 0:19:45.359 --> 0:19:47.320 to have some good conversations with some of the guys 0:19:47.359 --> 0:19:51.280 and you know, just kind of trying to relate some 0:19:51.359 --> 0:19:54.240 of my own experiences and hopefully be a good influence 0:19:54.280 --> 0:19:55.920 and be a good leader for them. 0:19:56.119 --> 0:19:59.480 What's your therapy to try to maintain your patience until 0:19:59.480 --> 0:20:00.280
