Speaker 4: booth with Steven Nelson and Rick Monday. Well, it's been
Speaker 4: a long week off for your Los Angeles Dodgers, who
Speaker 4: were last in action a week ago today, Yes, out
Speaker 4: of Dodger Stadium. It was against the Milwaukee Brewers, Game
Speaker 4: four of the NLCS show. Hey Otani had an historic
Speaker 4: night on the mound, six shutout innings, allowed just two wits,
Speaker 4: struck out ten along the way at the plate Superman Show,
Speaker 4: Heyotani with the home run in the first inning to
Speaker 4: give the Dodgers a one nothing lead. Otani went deep
Speaker 4: again in the fourth inning, Dodgers were on top four
Speaker 4: to nothing, and then in the seventh show, Ayotani went
Speaker 4: deep for a third time.
Speaker 5: So Otani has to take time.
Speaker 6: He steps back in one ball in two strikes, The
Speaker 6: big Righty McGill sets on the mount, here's the pitch,
Speaker 6: and O'tani tries.
Speaker 3: One left center field? Did you show hey, o Tani?
Speaker 3: The stuff of legend?
Speaker 4: A performance we may never ever see again in Major
Speaker 4: League Baseball. Six shutout innings on the mound, three home
Speaker 4: runs in the game as the Dodgers beat the Brewers
Speaker 4: last Friday, Game four of the NLCS, and that is
Speaker 4: the top tier play the game, brought to you by
Speaker 4: Arco Quality, top tier gas for less. With the four
Speaker 4: game sweep over the Brewers, Dodgers punched their ticket to
Speaker 4: the World Series and they had to wait a few
Speaker 4: days to find out who their opponent would be. As
Speaker 4: the Seattle Mariners and the Toronto Blue Jays went back
Speaker 4: and forth, and they went back to Toronto for a
Speaker 4: Game six. They then went to a Game seven on
Speaker 4: Monday night. Both teams scored in the first. The Mariners
Speaker 4: took a three to one lead thanks to a cal
Speaker 4: Raley home run in the fifth inning, it was looking
Speaker 4: like the Dodgers were gonna go to the Pacific Northwest
Speaker 4: and take on the Seattle Mariners until the seventh one.
Speaker 1: To oh pitch swing in the fightball left field indep
Speaker 1: Rose Arena.
Speaker 3: Turns good.
Speaker 7: Stringer Dinger four three Blue Jays in.
Speaker 3: The bottom of the seventh.
Speaker 4: Blue Jays radio with the call George Springer a three
Speaker 4: run home run in the bottom of the seventh inning
Speaker 4: of Game seven of the ALCS to give the Blue
Speaker 4: Jays a four to three lead. They would go on
Speaker 4: and close it out and get the win and punch
Speaker 4: their ticket for a matchup against the Dodgers. For the
Speaker 4: Toronto Blue Jays, it is their first World Series appearance
Speaker 4: since nineteen ninety three. For the Dodgers, their second straight
Speaker 4: World Series appearance, and they are the defending World Series champs. Tonight,
Speaker 4: Game one of the Fall Classic, Blake snow on the
Speaker 4: mound for the Dodgers. First pitch from Rogers Center in
Speaker 4: Toronto coming up at five point fifteen and with more
Speaker 4: we head out to the Gallpin Motors broadcast booth as
Speaker 4: we welcome in Steven Nelson and Rick Monday, Guys.
Speaker 6: Tim Kats Happy Friday to you and every Dodger fan
Speaker 6: back home in Los Angeles. We join you from to Toronto.
Speaker 6: We join you from the twenty twenty five World Series.
Speaker 6: And I'm not going to bury the lead. Rick Monday.
Speaker 6: I am surprised that the country of Canada did not
Speaker 6: hold you up at customs. They let you through without
Speaker 6: a problem, despite what you did to Montreal. Obviously not Toronto,
Speaker 6: but Montreal and the country of Canada back in nineteen
Speaker 6: eighty one.
Speaker 8: Yeah, they don't care if this is Toronto, is this
Speaker 8: fun or what?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 8: I mean, this is what it's all about. You start
Speaker 8: to think back to day one in spring training, a
Speaker 8: camel back ranch, Glendale. Okay, the defending world champions come
Speaker 8: into camp. Everybody's saying, well can you repeat? Can you repeat? Well?
Speaker 8: Here they are with the biggest stage and it's the
Speaker 8: best of seven and the Toronto Blue Jays have had
Speaker 8: a sensational season and then really a turnaround if you
Speaker 8: look at the last year, the last place in the East,
Speaker 8: and then all of a sudden boom, here they are.
Speaker 8: They've earned it. The Dodgers have earned it. Now it's
Speaker 8: going to be classic and who gets the leg up early?
Speaker 8: The first two with Toronto they have the home field
Speaker 8: of Vantages and back to la for three and if needed,
Speaker 8: coming back to Toronto for the final two games of
Speaker 8: the seven games played.
Speaker 6: There are so many fascinating storylines to pick from in
Speaker 6: this World Series. I'm curious to know which one or
Speaker 6: two perhaps are top of mind, because again, it's a
Speaker 6: long list of things that we could watch over these
Speaker 6: next four to seven games.
Speaker 8: Well, I think the biggest thing is is being asked.
Speaker 8: I know it was asked if Dave Roberts. It was
Speaker 8: asked of everybody else in the Dodgers' organization at some
Speaker 8: point in another if there's a World championship, here are
Speaker 8: we looking at what can be labeled as a dynasty
Speaker 8: in Major League Baseball? Most probably you're looking at one
Speaker 8: of the most successful managers. If you look at the
Speaker 8: tenure that Dave Roberts has had and what the Dodgers
Speaker 8: have done over the years is incredible. Because when you
Speaker 8: put on a Dodger uniform and you sign up to
Speaker 8: play for them, there are expectations that are much higher
Speaker 8: than other organizations. The expectation is not just to have
Speaker 8: a good season. The expectation is to get to the
Speaker 8: Big Dance.
Speaker 6: And here they are, the Dodgers trying to go back
Speaker 6: to back, the first team in Major League Baseball since
Speaker 6: the turn of the century, the Yankees, the Blue Jays
Speaker 6: hosting a World Series game for the first time since.
Speaker 5: Joe Carter's historic walk off World.
Speaker 6: Series clinching home run in nineteen ninety three when the
Speaker 6: Jays went back to back. So the Dodgers are trying
Speaker 6: to do what Toronto did in the early nineties. And
Speaker 6: there's a lot of ties between these two organizations, a
Speaker 6: lot of ties from the Dodgers here to the country
Speaker 6: of Canada and the province of Ontario.
Speaker 5: Freddie Freeman is at the.
Speaker 6: Top of that list and top of mind of course,
Speaker 6: with his parents, his late mother Rosemary and his father
Speaker 6: Fred both being born and raised here in Ontario. And
Speaker 6: you know, Freddie being back here mode, not just in Ontario,
Speaker 6: but in the World Series, a stage that he has
Speaker 6: dominated throughout his career, he figures to play a prominent
Speaker 6: role once again.
Speaker 8: Well, the best of the best to perform best when
Speaker 8: the lights are turned up the brightest. They don't get
Speaker 8: any brighter in Major League Baseball playing games than right here.
Speaker 8: It's going to be a loud rock as crowd. The
Speaker 8: roof is closed. Yeah, Chili, you're gonna be down in
Speaker 8: to the forties outside. And for the Dodgers, hopefully they
Speaker 8: get red hot. Two teams, by the way, approach the
Speaker 8: game a little differently. The Dodgers go for slug and
Speaker 8: if you look at the Toronto Blue Jays, they have
Speaker 8: really made their mark by making contact and understanding they
Speaker 8: don't swing and miss that often.
Speaker 5: Yeah, tim as we get it back to you.
Speaker 6: It is an amazing matchup that we have here to
Speaker 6: the best teams in all of Major League Baseball. They
Speaker 6: are top five in most categories that everybody seems to
Speaker 6: care about. But contrasting styles, two big payrolls, but contrasting styles.
Speaker 6: The Blue Jays known for their offense, a relentless lineup
Speaker 6: that is deep one through nine, and as more mentioned,
Speaker 6: their ability to make contact. They led the majors in
Speaker 6: contact percentage. Well, they're going to be going against this
Speaker 6: Dodgers starting staff, which is red hot and leads all
Speaker 6: of baseball in with rate here in the postseason. So
Speaker 6: which one gives we'll find out in a little bit.
Speaker 6: Game one is starting shortly back later with some keys, all.
Speaker 5: Right, Thank you.
Speaker 4: Nelly has been counting down to first pitch. Dodger fans,
Speaker 4: perfect time, get your game day meal on. It's Shaky's
Speaker 4: Pizza Parlor. Just one of your Shaky's Pizza jack and mojos.
Speaker 4: You can do it all at Shaky's dot Com. Coming
Speaker 4: up here on Moronco Casino Dodgers on Deck, you're gonna
Speaker 4: hear from the Dodger manager Dave Roberts. David Vase checks
Speaker 4: in from the Rogers Center. Throughout the hour, he'll go
Speaker 4: one on one with Clayton Kershaw. We break down this
Speaker 4: game one pitching matchup. But up next, Kirsten Watson from
Speaker 4: Sports and at LA stops by. You can see her
Speaker 4: pre impost as we lead you up to Dodgers and
Speaker 4: Blue Jays. It's Game one of the twenty twenty five
Speaker 4: World Series. First pitch from Toronto, Canada. It's coming up
Speaker 4: at five point fifteen. Thanks for being with us. I'm
Speaker 4: Tim kass the world champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Morono Cassino Dodgers Hunts the game on.
Speaker 3: Your home for LA Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 4: It's the Dodgers and Blue Jays, Game one of the
Speaker 4: twenty twenty five World Series from Rodger Center in Toronto.
Speaker 4: Blake Snell gets the series opener, first pitch coming up
Speaker 4: in five fifteen.
Speaker 1: This is Kirston's Corner with Kirston Watson.
Speaker 4: Hey, Kirs is brought to by Cars for Kids. Ready
Speaker 4: to donate that old car? Call each seven seven Cars
Speaker 4: for Kids right now, Friendly Asians standing by to take
Speaker 4: your donation. That's Cars with the K to donate your
Speaker 4: car today, Kirsten. It's been a minute, it's been a
Speaker 4: week since Game four the NLCS, but here they are,
Speaker 4: the Dodgers back at it, Game one of the World Series,
Speaker 4: north of the border in Toronto, and a lot of
Speaker 4: anticipation for this game.
Speaker 9: We're back.
Speaker 10: That's what I love about this and it's the most
Speaker 10: exciting time. This is Game one of the World Series.
Speaker 10: Tim There's obviously so much energy everything going around yesterday
Speaker 10: Media day, so of course all the guys had to
Speaker 10: be around talking about thirty forty five minutes. Got to
Speaker 10: sit down with Blake Snell, of course, the game one starter,
Speaker 10: and I think his energy says it all. Like literally
Speaker 10: yesterday he was talking about just preparing for start. He
Speaker 10: said that this is the most important start of his career.
Speaker 10: He is someone he loves these moments, his last outing
Speaker 10: of course, eighth shutout innings face the minimum through eight,
Speaker 10: so for him to now take the ball for Game one,
Speaker 10: he feels really good. The rest of this team behind him.
Speaker 10: They had, as you mentioned, a little bit of time
Speaker 10: between the end of the NLCS and of.
Speaker 4: Course Game one of this World Series.
Speaker 10: They had practices at Dodge Stadium, only took one true
Speaker 10: day off to reset mentally, but from talking to the guys,
Speaker 10: they all said that time was so valuable for them.
Speaker 10: Some guys are kind of battling some bumps and bruises,
Speaker 10: so they were able to heal mentally, physically reset, but
Speaker 10: also understanding they learned a lot from the bye week
Speaker 10: last year and how they had to kind of prepare
Speaker 10: themselves for the NLDS, not getting too comfortable in that time.
Speaker 10: So they learned that they were able to apply that
Speaker 10: to these five six days in between the end of
Speaker 10: the NLCS and start preparing for today for Game one.
Speaker 10: So they feel really good. But they're excited to have
Speaker 10: Blake Snell on the mountain at the tone.
Speaker 4: Looking at this twenty six man roster for the Dodgers,
Speaker 4: a little bit of change, especially in the bullpen.
Speaker 10: Yeah, so they are going to be without Alex Bessia
Speaker 10: for this series. You know, there's been some our thoughts
Speaker 10: are with him, some scary and unfortunate instance for him
Speaker 10: and his family. So he is away from the team.
Speaker 10: He's with his wife Kayla, dealing with a personal matter
Speaker 10: and because of that, so there was some thought potentially
Speaker 10: to put him on a family emergency list. How could
Speaker 10: they navigate this roster so that he could be in
Speaker 10: a position to come back. But ultimately, from talking to
Speaker 10: Dave Roberts and Andrew Friedman today, they have said that
Speaker 10: the most important thing for Alex right now is to
Speaker 10: be with his family, and so they didn't even want
Speaker 10: to give him the pressure of having to return. So
Speaker 10: they're looking at things as they will be without him
Speaker 10: for this series. So in the bullpen they have now
Speaker 10: Will Klein has been activated. Exciting for him making his
Speaker 10: first postseason roster and of course it just happens to
Speaker 10: be the World Series. He's been staying hot in Arizona.
Speaker 10: The focus for him recently has been just getting right
Speaker 10: hinted hitters out and so he feels really good as
Speaker 10: to how he's executing his and then they have put
Speaker 10: Edgardo and Riquez back on the roster. So for him,
Speaker 10: he was not on the roster for the NLCS, but
Speaker 10: from being back for the World Series, he's been in
Speaker 10: a good position staying hot. But it's really just more
Speaker 10: matchup drivemn of course, for the Blue Jays, they've got
Speaker 10: some power hitters, a deep lineup, so they feel good
Speaker 10: as to what.
Speaker 3: The bullpen looks like.
Speaker 10: But ultimately all of the guys, it's gonna come down
Speaker 10: to executing their pitches. And the hope is, you know,
Speaker 10: not only do they have a lot to play for
Speaker 10: just as a team, they all want to win the
Speaker 10: World Series. They want that history of going back to back,
Speaker 10: but now they have you know, there's some personal things too.
Speaker 10: It's Clayton Kershaw's final season in the big leagues. They
Speaker 10: wanted him to end on a bank. And then you
Speaker 10: have someone like Alex Vesia and so maybe there are
Speaker 10: who's been such a key arm in that bulpen, one
Speaker 10: of those bullpen dogs, and you know, maybe this is
Speaker 10: a way that another way that they can play for
Speaker 10: each other to uplift their teammates right now, and so
Speaker 10: it could be really special in that sense.
Speaker 4: A lot to play for for this Dodgers team, and
Speaker 4: it all begins here shortly with Game one. Here's that
Speaker 4: we appreciate. We'll check out with you after the game
Speaker 4: is still to get I'm here on Morongo Casino Dodgers
Speaker 4: on Deck will dive deeper in to this Game one
Speaker 4: pitching matchup. David Vadego's one on one with Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 4: What up next? We'll get the pregame thoughts of the manager,
Speaker 4: Dave Roberts. It's the Dodgers and Blue Jays Game one
Speaker 4: of the World Series. First pitch from Toronto, Canada, coming
Speaker 4: up at five fifteen. I'm Tim kas Is the world
Speaker 4: champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Tech.
Speaker 1: On your home for the Blue all season long.
Speaker 4: Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck continues as we lead you
Speaker 4: up to first pitch, Game one of the World Series.
Speaker 4: Dodgers in the Blue Jays, Morongo Casino Resort. It spot
Speaker 4: a Grand Slam for good times. Blake Snell and Trey Sevins.
Speaker 4: The pitching matchup, first pitch coming up at five fifteen.
Speaker 3: Any questions for Dave Dave can you just describe Dave.
Speaker 5: Can you talk about the pressure in.
Speaker 9: The dugouts with Robberts Dave yesterday when in honestly the
Speaker 9: last few weeks of talking to Blake's now he's talked
Speaker 9: about just how much information he likes to take in
Speaker 9: before each start. What have you learned from him in
Speaker 9: his pitching style as information he likes to take it
Speaker 9: as he prepares for his outing. That kind of maybe
Speaker 9: stands out to stands out to you about him that
Speaker 9: maybe you didn't know before managing him.
Speaker 11: I think I've learned that he does a good job
Speaker 11: with his homework. He has his own process, very well prepared,
Speaker 11: but takes in information from you know, you know, Mark
Speaker 11: and the catchers, and but really is very well prepared
Speaker 11: and he understands how much he needs versus being overloaded.
Speaker 2: I'll run it from hi, Dave.
Speaker 12: With all the reasons that your team has for wanting
Speaker 12: to win another World Series, do you think the alex
Speaker 12: Avessia situation is another reason this team is going to
Speaker 12: play for him?
Speaker 5: Right now?
Speaker 11: You know, it's certainly on our hearts and we miss
Speaker 11: him and we'll be thinking about him, and certainly you
Speaker 11: know he's a part of this and it's just even
Speaker 11: more motivation.
Speaker 5: Yes, right in the next row.
Speaker 13: Hey, Dave, during the celebration after winning last year's World Series,
Speaker 13: you said, let's get ready to run this thing back. Now,
Speaker 13: this is that opportunity that first day where you're trying
Speaker 13: to run it back. Describe the pressure you feel right now?
Speaker 11: Nothing whatsoever I think that you know right now, you know,
Speaker 11: our only focus is winning tonight, and I mean that wholeheartedly.
Speaker 11: That's the only thing that we care about right now.
Speaker 2: And so.
Speaker 11: It's a big game. It's going to be a fun crowd.
Speaker 11: Our guys prepared, you know, and that's something I said
Speaker 11: certainly close to a year ago, and we're in a
Speaker 11: position to do that. But you know, we got to
Speaker 11: win four games. So right now, you know, let's take
Speaker 11: care of business and then we'll see if it all
Speaker 11: falls out.
Speaker 13: Fourth throw on your left dock.
Speaker 14: So Davia just wanted to clarify Vesia being off the
Speaker 14: rosters he out for the World Series at this point.
Speaker 11: You know what I think, Sonya, that's probably the most likely, uh,
Speaker 11: you know, unless something unforcing happens. That's kind of where
Speaker 11: what we're anticipating.
Speaker 14: And you know, obviously the human side of this is
Speaker 14: kind of bigger than the baseball side. But he's been
Speaker 14: using so many big situations for you, how do you
Speaker 14: kind of replace that with your current bullpen?
Speaker 11: Yeah, we have we have a lot of uh, you know,
Speaker 11: viable options, and I don't know what situation will present itself,
Speaker 11: but I trust all the guys, I really do, and
Speaker 11: Gudgement have to step up. But Alex is certainly going
Speaker 11: to be missed.
Speaker 5: Check just one more to clarify on that.
Speaker 6: Did you guys consider putting him on like the family
Speaker 6: medical leave list at all? Or was it just he
Speaker 6: wasn't going to be able to come back even if
Speaker 6: you did do that.
Speaker 11: I think we exhausted a couple of different options, but
Speaker 11: just considering, you know, obviously what he's going through, and
Speaker 11: you know, baseball certainly on the back burner. So I
Speaker 11: just think that's kind of the right, you know process.
Speaker 11: I think that we as an organization was probably the
Speaker 11: best way to handle it. And to be quite honest,
Speaker 11: I don't know a lot of what went into it.
Speaker 4: All right, there's the manager, Dave Roberts. Certainly Alex Vessia.
Speaker 4: Our thoughts and prayers with him and his family as
Speaker 4: he's out with a personal issue, not on this World
Speaker 4: Series roster, and the Dodgers certainly with heavy hearts as
Speaker 4: they get ready now for Game one of this World
Speaker 4: Series coming up. It's the Dodgers and Blue Jays from
Speaker 4: Rogers Center coming up here on Morongo Casino Dodgers on denck.
Speaker 4: Don't forget we're gonna hear from the manager. We just
Speaker 4: did Dave Roberts for the future Hall of Famer Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 4: That's coming up in about twenty minutes. But I'm next
Speaker 4: to check in with David Vadzay as we.
Speaker 5: Lead you out to first pitch.
Speaker 4: I'm Tim Kass Word Champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino Dodgers on
Speaker 1: deck on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 4: Dodgers in Blue Jays, Game one of the World Series
Speaker 4: from Toronto. Blake Snell on the mount, first pitch coming
Speaker 4: up at five point fifteen.
Speaker 3: Joining Tim kits on Dodgers on deck.
Speaker 12: I accept everybody for who they are.
Speaker 3: This is Dodger insider David Basse.
Speaker 5: All right, DV.
Speaker 4: Here we are Game one from the Rogers Center. It's
Speaker 4: been a while since postseason baseball has gone this far
Speaker 4: in Toronto nineteen ninety three. What's it like right now?
Speaker 12: Yeah, just being around the city the last day or so.
Speaker 12: This stadium, by the way, is pretty full, sellout crowd.
Speaker 12: It gets loud, especially with the roof closed. They got
Speaker 12: the manager from their last World Series championship team Edo
Speaker 12: throwing out the first pitch tonight and tomorrow the hero
Speaker 12: from nineteen ninety three, Joe Carter, is throwing out the
Speaker 12: first pitch tomorrow. So this is something that you know,
Speaker 12: Toronto hasn't had, like you said, in thirty two years,
Speaker 12: So everybody's excited. The Dodgers obviously have done this a
Speaker 12: few times since twenty seventeen fifth World Series during the
Speaker 12: last nine years. They're looking to become one of a
Speaker 12: handful of teams to win three World Series in the
Speaker 12: last six years if they can get this job done.
Speaker 4: David has brought to you by the twenty twenty five
Speaker 4: Ford f one to fifty from California's best Allien truck brand.
Speaker 4: It's time to see Ford in a new lights now.
Speaker 4: Certainly the Alex Vesia situation, our thoughts are with him
Speaker 4: and his family as he is away from the team.
Speaker 4: As far as the rosters concerned, David a couple of
Speaker 4: new arms joining this Dodgers bullpen.
Speaker 12: Yeah, Will Klein and Edgardo and Riquez have been added.
Speaker 12: Ben Casparius has been taken off and all so with
Speaker 12: the absence of Alex Vesia, that opened up another spot.
Speaker 12: Tanner Scott, who had him pitched in over a month,
Speaker 12: did not get that spot. The Dodgers decided to go
Speaker 12: with two righties because the Blue Jays are a very
Speaker 12: right handed team, so there's really no spot where you
Speaker 12: would bring in a lefty specialist to get a very
Speaker 12: dangerous left handed hitter out like a Kyle Schwarber or
Speaker 12: a Bryce Sarper in the NLDS. But you can't replace
Speaker 12: Alex Vesia. He was Dave Roberts fireman. He did that
Speaker 12: in Game four where he took out shoe a Otani
Speaker 12: in the seventh inning and there were runners at first
Speaker 12: and second. He brought in Vessia to be able to
Speaker 12: put out that fire and get through the seventh inning
Speaker 12: and bridge it to the back end of the bullpen.
Speaker 2: Who is he going to.
Speaker 12: Turn to in that type of situation, Well, he may
Speaker 12: be forced to just stick with his starter in that situation.
Speaker 12: Moving forward without an Alex Vesia, Anthony Banda is probably
Speaker 12: at the top of the list when you do bring
Speaker 12: in a lefty that can get lefties and righties out
Speaker 12: and has experience from last year. But Andrew Friedman earlier
Speaker 12: today kind of gave us a little bit more clarity
Speaker 12: on why the Dodgers did not have Alex Vesia on
Speaker 12: the World Series roster or even at the very least
Speaker 12: a family emergency list or bereavement list.
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean, we just would didn't want to have
Speaker 15: any potential for any kind of pressure. You know, this
Speaker 15: is so much bigger than baseball, and for us, it
Speaker 15: was doing whatever small part we could to just one
Speaker 15: hundred percent be supportive.
Speaker 12: And just to put it into context and when this
Speaker 12: all came about. As far as the timeline goes, alex
Speaker 12: Vesia did not travel with the Dodgers to Toronto in
Speaker 12: the one day the media had access to a Dodger
Speaker 12: workout earlier this week, Alex Vesia was not there. So
Speaker 12: obviously the Dodgers had some inclination that Vesia and his
Speaker 12: if we're dealing with something very personal, and obviously given
Speaker 12: him all the support and like Andrew said, bigger than baseball,
Speaker 12: and the Dodgers have another reason to win the World Series.
Speaker 4: So doubt about that showy Otani. Last time we saw him,
Speaker 4: David hit three home runs but six shutout Indians and
Speaker 4: he did something different before that Game four the NLCS.
Speaker 4: Did he do the same thing before Game one of
Speaker 4: the World Series.
Speaker 12: He did, and he was very transparent about it. At
Speaker 12: media Day, he gave us a heads up that he
Speaker 12: was going to take batting practice on the field last
Speaker 12: night at Rogers Center. And just like at Dodgers Stadium,
Speaker 12: he was part of the last group, him and Freddie
Speaker 12: Freeman taking batting practice on the field here at Rogers Center.
Speaker 12: And since it is a dome, you can't hit it
Speaker 12: out of the stadium, but you can certainly hit it
Speaker 12: to Quebec. And that's exactly what shoe Hey Otani did
Speaker 12: a few different times. In right center field, it's about
Speaker 12: five tiers up. Otani hit it to the fourth tier.
Speaker 12: It looks like a stadium club. There's some chandeliers. If
Speaker 12: you catch this on Instagram and five to seventy LA
Speaker 12: Sports are on television tonight and right center field there's
Speaker 12: like a there's like a stadium club with chandeliers.
Speaker 5: Otani hit it there.
Speaker 12: If he would have hit it to straightaway center field,
Speaker 12: he would have hit it to the second tier of
Speaker 12: the hotel that's in straightaway center field. So he was
Speaker 12: putting on a show. And this obviously is the last
Speaker 12: postseason series. It worked for him to have well once
Speaker 12: in a lifetime performance in Game four of the NLCS.
Speaker 12: So he's sticking with what's working, all right.

Speaker 4: He leads up to first pitch from Toronto Dodgers and
Speaker 4: Blue Jays Game one of the World Series. I'm Tim Kass,
Speaker 4: World Champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Tech on your home
Speaker 1: for the Blue All Season Log.
Speaker 4: It's the Dodgers and the Blue Jays Game one of
Speaker 4: the World Series from Toronto, Canada. Blake Snell tay you

Speaker 4: five minutes away from the start of the game. Now, Verizon,
Speaker 4: you can lock in your low price for three years
Speaker 4: so you can save big. Visit the Verizon store Today.
Speaker 4: We turn things over to Charlie Stunner.
Speaker 16: All right, Tim, We're ready to go Game one of
Speaker 16: the World Series. You know, the Dodgers have played just
Speaker 16: four games in the last two weeks, steamrolling the Reds
Speaker 16: and Phillies and Brewers going nine to one, the Blue
Speaker 16: Jays seven and fours.
Speaker 5: Their first World Series.
Speaker 16: Is nineteen ninety three October the twenty fourth, nineteen ninety three.
Speaker 16: That's eleven thousand, eighty eight days. The Dodgers back in
Speaker 16: the series for the first time in three hundred and
Speaker 16: fifty six days. It was three hundred and fifty six
Speaker 16: days ago.
Speaker 2: That they won the World Series.
Speaker 16: Bo you get the question, I know as I which
Speaker 16: is more advantagous team that has been playing right to
Speaker 16: the finish line or a team that can kind of
Speaker 16: sit back, go through the drills and get ready to
Speaker 16: play that way.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think it's an interesting question because I think
Speaker 8: it also depends upon the team. Is it a team
Speaker 8: that needs a few extra days to get some people healthy,
Speaker 8: You can make that argument. Is it a team that
Speaker 8: has been able to work on a few things that
Speaker 8: maybe that they had not been doing before they had
Speaker 8: the opportunity to lay off. I think the big question
Speaker 8: also would go to the manager, John Schneider of the
Speaker 8: Toronto Blue Jays when you have well rest or rust
Speaker 8: because they have activated Bobashit. Now here's the rest part.
Speaker 8: You know, he's not played a game in a month
Speaker 8: and a half, so he is a lot of rust
Speaker 8: on him, and yet he is going to be not
Speaker 8: only activated, he's going to be starting at second base study.
Speaker 8: He has had that knee injury. So a lot of
Speaker 8: people are saying, well, we needed to get some rest
Speaker 8: on our team. The others are saying, no, the team
Speaker 8: hasn't played in a long time. Rust you know what,
Speaker 8: They're going to play both hansoms here tonight and it
Speaker 8: doesn't matter. Did you have a good night's sleep? I
Speaker 8: think that's a bigger important question.
Speaker 16: That's exactly right going in And that's one of the
Speaker 16: people talk about experience or lack of same in the postseason.
Speaker 16: If you have been there before, it's I think a
Speaker 16: lot easier just to know exactly where you are and
Speaker 16: realize that the bases are still just ninety feet apart,
Speaker 16: and you go, you play, you feel it, you touch it,
Speaker 16: let's go.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 8: But it is a different animal. It's a different animal
Speaker 8: from the wild card series the Dodgers won. It's a
Speaker 8: different animal than the division series what they won. Different
Speaker 8: animal than the championship, the league championship series. I mean,
Speaker 8: this is a series all into itself, and unless you've
Speaker 8: experienced it as a player, as a member of the media,
Speaker 8: as a fan, and then you get the the you know,
Speaker 8: the blood flow going and the adrenaline going. I mean,
Speaker 8: this is a whole different thing. And just watching people
Speaker 8: on the field tonight, you could not count the number
Speaker 8: of microphones. And I mentioned that because one of the
Speaker 8: things years ago we used to tell younger players are
Speaker 8: coming up and experiencing postseason played for the first time,
Speaker 8: in particular World Series, do not let all the noise
Speaker 8: around you, let you get out of your routine to
Speaker 8: get ready for a game. And that's really really important
Speaker 8: as these two teams about to get going.
Speaker 16: That's exactly why the experience factor been there done, that
Speaker 16: is a big deal. You know how to feel because
Speaker 16: you've been down that road before. All right to the picture,
Speaker 16: Lake Snell he is the reason why the Dodgers signed him.
Speaker 16: In his last six games, including the postseason, a record
Speaker 16: of five and one, a zero six eight er opponents
Speaker 16: are hitting one fifteen against him five straight postseason starts,
Speaker 16: including fourteen consecutive scoreless innings. And of course, Trey Yeskevitch
Speaker 16: is the second youngest World Series starter twenty two years plus.
Speaker 16: The youngest was Ralph Branca for the Dodgers. He was
Speaker 16: twenty one back in nineteen forty seven. So the pitching,
Speaker 16: obviously especially in a World Series is huge and with
Speaker 16: Snell on the hill Ken been there, done that, one
Speaker 16: would think that's.
Speaker 5: A huge advantage.
Speaker 8: One would think that's a huge advantage. This is a
Speaker 8: different time, it's a different day, and it's a different game,
Speaker 8: and this is a different team that's going to be
Speaker 8: pitching against Toronto. And I say that because even their
Speaker 8: manager came out earlier says, look, we base things on
Speaker 8: putting the ball in play. They figure that's very important,
Speaker 8: and it is. They don't strike out that often, they
Speaker 8: don't swing and miss that often. The question is Blake
Speaker 8: Snell has the ability to expand the strike zone. You know,
Speaker 8: we've seen that time and time again, hitters just getting
Speaker 8: anxious and start to swing and pitches off the plate,
Speaker 8: out of the strike zone. Will the Blue Jays do
Speaker 8: that same thing. It's a commodity that they've not really
Speaker 8: visited that often during the season. And the Dodgers have
Speaker 8: to figure out how they're going to handle a the
Speaker 8: velocity of you savage and absolutely drop off the end
Speaker 8: of the table split finger fastball, and.
Speaker 16: The Dodgers have not fared particularly well against a fastball.
Speaker 5: A couple of real quick.
Speaker 16: Notes Otani and Springer this year combined for eighty seven
Speaker 16: home runs during the regular season, lead off hinners. Long
Speaker 16: way from the days.
Speaker 3: Of peewee reason, Bobby Richardson.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a different game. It's an absolutely different game.
Speaker 8: And everybody's talking about, well, the Dodgers' bullpen has had
Speaker 8: some difficulty. Well, here's some numbers in postseason this year.
Speaker 8: You'll look at the starting pitching for the Dodgers a
Speaker 8: one point four EER. They're relievers. The bullpen is for
Speaker 8: eighty eight. People say, well, get to the bullpens. Well,
Speaker 8: how about the Toronto bullpen in postseason? They have an
Speaker 8: ERA above five and a half. So when you talk
Speaker 8: about the bullpens, which one will you kind of squint
Speaker 8: a little bit harder. The other part, too, is the
Speaker 8: Dodgers starting pitchers to this point Charlie have extended the
Speaker 8: number of innings that they have pitched, therefore reducing the
Speaker 8: coverage needed by the bullpens.
Speaker 16: Two quick notes. Kick Aernandez. This is his eighty sixth
Speaker 16: postseason game for the Dodgers, matching Justin Turner. And then
Speaker 16: there's Freddy Freeman, who has hit safely in each of
Speaker 16: his eleven World Series games, hitting three ten six home
Speaker 16: runs in his last seven games in the postseason. Those
Speaker 16: are two guys who, obviously the Dodgers will be relying
Speaker 16: upon quite a.
Speaker 2: Bit this series.
Speaker 8: Yeah, and the Dodgers are gonna have to have some
Speaker 8: very good hitting, you know. So far, runners in scoring
Speaker 8: position the Blue Jays have had the highest batting average,
Speaker 8: well over too eighty in postseason runners in scoring position
Speaker 8: for the Dodgers just two eleven. However, that has been
Speaker 8: a very strong to eleven quite frankly, because they haven't
Speaker 8: had to score a great deal of runs because the
Speaker 8: pitchy staff.
Speaker 5: Is not allowed too many.
Speaker 16: I am not going to ask you for a prediction
Speaker 16: because people ask me for frestution.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 16: That's why we're playing line ups in first pitch coming up, Tim.
Speaker 4: All right, thank you, Charlie, as we get you ready
Speaker 4: for fraz pitch. Dodger fans don't forget. You can join

Speaker 12: of the World Series. Clayton Kershaw's last dance. We are

Speaker 12: Thank you so much for the time, and I know
Speaker 12: this is why you're here.
Speaker 2: This is it. This is why I'm here. Good to
Speaker 2: talk to everybody here. This is it.
Speaker 12: Have you been able to enjoy the moments of this
Speaker 12: and the last couple of months of the season more
Speaker 12: than you've allowed yourself to enjoy other moments of your career?
Speaker 2: I think so, I think so. I Yeah.
Speaker 17: I usually try not to get too wrapped up and everything,
Speaker 17: but yeah, once I kind of came out and said
Speaker 17: that I was finished, it's hard not to, you know,
Speaker 17: it's hard not to be a little bit reflective, and
Speaker 17: you know, the few moments I had, you know, the
Speaker 17: last home game at Dodger Stadium, the last game in
Speaker 17: Seattle is just it is really special.
Speaker 2: And then getting to.
Speaker 17: Celebrate, you know, the victories in the postseason all that, like,
Speaker 17: I know, I maybe have one more.
Speaker 2: Time to get to do that.
Speaker 17: So it's, uh, yeah, all that stuff you can't help
Speaker 17: but kind of look back and just be grateful for
Speaker 17: it all.
Speaker 12: During this journey of the postseason, I've seen players from
Speaker 12: other teams, you know, workouts or before the games go
Speaker 12: out of their way to kind of just salute you.
Speaker 2: Have you noticed that, how.
Speaker 12: Guys that you may not have expected come up to
Speaker 12: you and just you know, say congratulations.
Speaker 17: Yeah, I mean I think everybody it is. It's I'm
Speaker 17: super honored by that, you know, not you never expect
Speaker 17: anybody to say, you know, nice things, especially when you're
Speaker 17: playing against you. But to have guys say, you know,
Speaker 17: a great career, you know, enjoyed playing against you or
Speaker 17: competing all that stuff is uh, is very is awesome.
Speaker 17: You know, it really is because the peers, you know,
Speaker 17: your peers are kind of that's who the opinions matter.
Speaker 17: You know, there's a lot of people outside this game
Speaker 17: that will say things that don't understand. So to have
Speaker 17: have your peers respect is uh. I've always said that
Speaker 17: guys inside your clubhouse and guys around the game, that's
Speaker 17: the that's the most important thing as far as your
Speaker 17: reputation has.
Speaker 12: The some of the more uncomfortable things is for you
Speaker 12: to hear that and hear people celebrate you, and even
Speaker 12: guys in your own clubhouse have that type of respect
Speaker 12: and vocalize it, even maybe making goat sounds at times.
Speaker 17: I just tell them not to make it weird, Dave,
Speaker 17: I just tell them, don't make it weird. And so
Speaker 17: you know, but yeah, we've got We've got a lot
Speaker 17: of awesome guys. I think everybody. It's just a I
Speaker 17: think it's a mutual thing. I'm so grateful for all
Speaker 17: these guys, and it's just it's just pretty cool.
Speaker 12: Is there something to be said about everything you've accomplished
Speaker 12: certain players on this team have accomplished individually and as
Speaker 12: a group that you guys are still hungry for more.
Speaker 12: Are there guys playing with a chip on their shoulder
Speaker 12: to prove something for themselves and for the group?
Speaker 17: Is that part of this No, I just think we're
Speaker 17: a great team and this is what we're supposed to do.
Speaker 17: I mean, I think it's as simple as that, Like
Speaker 17: we don't have We've got one goal at the beginning
Speaker 17: of every season, and it takes the right type of superstars.
Speaker 17: You know, and Andrew does a great job. You know
Speaker 17: when you look at show, Hey, Mookie, Freddie, the top
Speaker 17: three guys on down, they're superstar players, but their mindset
Speaker 17: is just to win the World Series, and so they
Speaker 17: do everything that they possibly can to help.
Speaker 2: Us win the World Series.
Speaker 17: So I've been around guys where they've been great players
Speaker 17: that might that might not necessarily be the case at times,
Speaker 17: and so to have that is just like that that
Speaker 17: trickle down effect makes everybody realize that that's that's why
Speaker 17: we're here, and that's why we are a Dodger. That's
Speaker 17: what we signed up to do, and we're going to
Speaker 17: try to do that over the course of the next
Speaker 17: ten days.
Speaker 12: Doesn't that make this team unique because you have been
Speaker 12: teammates with guys that had a lot of talent but
Speaker 12: didn't have the work ethic to be able to fulfill it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 17: I mean, I don't know if it's work ethic. I
Speaker 17: don't know what it is. I just know that there's
Speaker 17: kind of like a factor of wanting to win and
Speaker 17: what that looks like. And you saw it last year
Speaker 17: with Freddy's ankle. You see it this year with Mookie
Speaker 17: becoming a.
Speaker 2: Goal globe shortstop. You see it with Shohey.
Speaker 17: Doing everything he can to be the best hitter and
Speaker 17: the best pitcher, And that trickles all the way down,
Speaker 17: like Will Smith trying to play through a broken hand,
Speaker 17: or you know, like just just everybody pitcher's stepping up,
Speaker 17: you know, pitching all the time, all bullpen guys throwing constantly,
Speaker 17: you know, just different.
Speaker 2: Stuff like they see these guys do.
Speaker 17: So that means that they they're going to fall in
Speaker 17: line too, and that's that's just pretty cool.
Speaker 2: I feel like Blake I got before I'll let you go.
Speaker 12: You've been in game one starter many times in your career.
Speaker 12: Blake is kind of setting the tone every series. What
Speaker 12: have you seen as far as the growth from when
Speaker 12: he first started pitching to where he's at right now
Speaker 12: with you guys.
Speaker 17: I've always said that Blake when he's right, is top
Speaker 17: top two to three pitchers in the game. I've said
Speaker 17: that when he was in Tampa, I said that when
Speaker 17: he was in San Diego.
Speaker 2: San Francisco.
Speaker 17: He's He's special, he really is, and you're seeing that now.
Speaker 17: He's got four pitches that are elite and he he
Speaker 17: loves to compete, he really does.
Speaker 2: So it's uh, I'm excited to watch tomorrow.
Speaker 12: Have you seen Donna yet?
Speaker 17: I haven't seen Donna yet. I haven't seen Don yet.
Speaker 17: I'll get him a hug and tell him I'm happier here.
Speaker 17: But this is as far as it goes, thank you, Clayton,
Speaker 17: all right, thanks.

Speaker 4: three to twenty one ERA in three starts in the postseason.
Speaker 4: Keep in mind he didn't get called up till mid September,

Speaker 4: regular season. Blake Snell he goes for the Dodgers. Thirty
Speaker 4: two year old left hander, first season with the Blue
Speaker 4: In his tenth season the big leagues. Overall, he finished
Speaker 4: five and four to two thirty five ERA and eleven
Speaker 4: starts with the Dodgers. Fourth start this postseason, he's three
Speaker 4: to zero with a sub one ER. Last time out,
Speaker 4: of course, those eight shutout innings ten strikeouts in a
Speaker 4: win against the Brewers. He has faced the Blue Jays
Speaker 4: sixteen times in his career, five and fourth to two
Speaker 4: thirty nine ERA. He last took them mount against him
Speaker 4: on August ninth, toss five scoreless innings, allowed three hits,
Speaker 4: struck out ten and getting the win. Keep in mind

Speaker 4: Treya Savage, Dogs, Blue Jays. We're fifteen minutes away from
Speaker 4: Game one of the twenty twenty five World Series. Keys
Speaker 4: of the game are next. I'm Tim Kas' is the
Speaker 4: world champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Morongo Casino Dodgers on Tap on your home
Speaker 1: for the Blue all season long law.
Speaker 4: It's the Dodgers and the Blue Jays Game one of
Speaker 4: the World Series from Toronto. Blake Snell on the mound.
Speaker 4: Treya seven is the rookie and going for the Blue
Speaker 4: Jays tonight Game one tomorrow Game two, as the Dodgers
Speaker 4: loved to defend their World Series championship. First pitch from
Speaker 4: Rogers Center is coming up at five point fifteen, though
Speaker 4: before that, we head back out to the booth one
Speaker 4: final time. Steven Nelson, Rick Monday, guys, All.
Speaker 5: Right, TC, back at it with Rick Monday.
Speaker 6: First pitch from Toronto will be thrown out in just
Speaker 6: a matter of moments, and it is from a twenty
Speaker 6: two year old Trey you Savage, making just his seventh
Speaker 6: major league start ever, and he's got Game one of
Speaker 6: the World Series against Blake Snell for the Dodgers. Rick Monday,
Speaker 6: your biggest key in this game is what, well, my
Speaker 6: biggest key is at how the pressure of a twenty
Speaker 6: two year old who comes on He started an a
Speaker 6: Bowl this year, went to double a trilea. He's only
Speaker 6: been in the big leagues what thirty eight days, thirty
Speaker 6: nine days to be exact. When he made his pitching
Speaker 6: debut this year in a ball in Duneden, Florida, there
Speaker 6: was a crowd on hand of three hundred and twenty seven.
Speaker 6: Tonight there's going to be at least thirty nine and
Speaker 6: fifty that's the capacity of this ballpark. How does he
Speaker 6: react and how did the Dodgers hitters react? Because he
Speaker 6: runs the heater upstairs really high fastball with the velocity
Speaker 6: and that split finger fastball throwing for really over the
Speaker 6: top of his head, a high trajectory, and it moves.
Speaker 6: They measured it. It has a depth of about five
Speaker 6: feet and the Dodgers kind of hone in on where
Speaker 6: the strength zone is.
Speaker 5: And tim as he get it back to you.
Speaker 6: One offensive key for the Dodgers because the offense really
Speaker 6: hasn't clicked in this postseason. Yeah, a lot of attention
Speaker 6: on a Tani in Toronto. Understand that, But the Blue
Speaker 6: Jays are not shy about issuing intentional walks.
Speaker 5: They have done it with stars throughout the year.
Speaker 6: Aaron Judge show, Hey in the in the summer when
Speaker 6: the Blue Jays visited LA. They just did it with
Speaker 6: cal Rawle a couple times in the ALCS. So I'm
Speaker 6: looking at Mooki Betts behind Otani, who has been walked
Speaker 6: seven times intentionally his last eight games against the Jays.
Speaker 5: Well, we know that Mooki takes.
Speaker 6: It personally when he sees that walk in front of him,
Speaker 6: and he's a career four to twenty nine hitter following
Speaker 6: in an intentional walk. We'll see how often that happens
Speaker 6: throughout this series. The World Series Game one after this,
Speaker 6: Dodger fans, are you ready? Let's go buckle up. Game
Speaker 6: one of the World.
Speaker 4: Series is next, Dodgers and Blue Jays from Rogers Center
