Speaker 1: Immortality is within their reach.
Speaker 3: Incredible and while others make excuses.

Speaker 4: we'll hear from Tim neverdey Rick Monday out the galloping
Speaker 4: Ford Broadcast booth. Well, yesterday, Rookie Sisaki got the ball,
Speaker 4: and Rookie was up and down for six innings. Gave
Speaker 4: him three runs on five hits while striking out four
Speaker 4: along the way. He got his pitch count up early
Speaker 4: as he struggled with guys on base, but was able
Speaker 4: to walk that tight rope and get out of it
Speaker 4: in the first and second inning. In the bottom of
Speaker 4: the third, Alec Burlson, though then RBI doubled to right
Speaker 4: and the Cardinals were on the board.
Speaker 7: One to nothing.
Speaker 4: And then it was all about the big fellow, Jordan Walker,
Speaker 4: who is off to a blistering start here in twenty
Speaker 4: twenty six, hitting his tenth Holle run of the season.
Speaker 4: This won a laser to left just over the wall,
Speaker 4: a two run shot, and the Cardinals had a three
Speaker 4: to ninzhing lead. The Dodgers offense quiet again. They're just
Speaker 4: not putting together hits in this series against Saint Louis.
Speaker 4: In fact, he can go back to the final three
Speaker 4: games against the Marlins on the last homestand the Dodgers
Speaker 4: offense has really been really Meanwhile, they got going in
Speaker 4: the ninth inning. Finally they started to put something together
Speaker 4: and it began with Monzi.
Speaker 8: Two balls had to strike to Muncie O'Brien's pitch swung
Speaker 8: on line drive base hit to right fail. Tucker's gonna
Speaker 8: get waived around third. Coming around second, heading to third
Speaker 8: is ta Oscar Hernendez and Max Mounsey gets the Dodgers
Speaker 8: on the board. It's three to one and the tying
Speaker 8: run is.
Speaker 5: At first base. I don't go away yet. Three straight
Speaker 5: hits for the Dodgers.
Speaker 4: Max Munci with the RBIs single scoring Kyle Tucker. Dodgers
Speaker 4: down three to one. Months he delivered, and then it
Speaker 4: was Andy Pajez added.
Speaker 8: On pitch swung on ground ball through the whole left
Speaker 8: side of base hit. Here comes Hernandez into score. Four
Speaker 8: straight hits for the Dodgers and they pulled within a run.
Speaker 5: It's three to two. The tying run now in scoring
Speaker 5: position with Munsey at.
Speaker 4: Second, Andy Pajez delivers a three to two game is
Speaker 4: ta Oscar Herneda scored Monsi at second in base he
Speaker 4: is the tie in run with two outs. However, Dalton
Speaker 4: Rushing would strikeouts swinging to end the rally as the
Speaker 4: Saint Louis Cardinals, for this second game in a row,
Speaker 4: defeat the Dodgers three to two is the final and
Speaker 4: Michael McCreevy out of San Clementi High School, he delivered
Speaker 4: with six shutout innings to pick up the win. Rookie
Speaker 4: Susaki with six as well, he gets the loss. He
Speaker 4: falls to one in three. The Dodgers just two runs
Speaker 4: on eight hits, and those two runs coming in the
Speaker 4: ninth inning, but they get tagged with the losses. They
Speaker 4: fall to twenty and thirteen overall on this season. But
Speaker 4: they're back at it today, riding a four game losing streak,
Speaker 4: hoping to shake that. With Justin Robuski on the mound
Speaker 4: first pitch at eleven to fifteen and with more we
Speaker 4: head out to the Galpin four broadcast as we say
Speaker 4: hello and good morning to Tim Nevert and Rick Monday.
Speaker 5: Guys, Thanks very much. Tim.
Speaker 8: On this Sunday afternoon in Saint Louis, the Dodgers and
Speaker 8: Cardinals wrap up this three game set. Dodgers trying to
Speaker 8: salvage a game in this three game series. The team's
Speaker 8: co men with identical twenty and thirteen records, although that's
Speaker 8: not how they came into the series, but that's how
Speaker 8: it is right now. The Dodgers have lost four in
Speaker 8: a row, a season high. Meantime, the Cardinals have won
Speaker 8: sixth straight. After last night's victory here three to two,
Speaker 8: Dodgers tried to come back in the ninth inning. They
Speaker 8: had four consecutive hits. The bats finally got going bunch
Speaker 8: some hits together, but they could only come up with
Speaker 8: two runs. And they left the tying and go ahead
Speaker 8: runs on base in the ninth inning and left everything
Speaker 8: for today to see if they can find a way
Speaker 8: to get a win. And well, that's what Dave Roberts
Speaker 8: was talking about in the dugout today when he met
Speaker 8: with us prior to the game, is they've got to
Speaker 8: try to find a way to get a win, get
Speaker 8: back in the win column somehow.
Speaker 9: Well, a piece of advice for the offense, don't hit
Speaker 9: into four double plays as they did in last night's
Speaker 9: bowl game. Talk about an abrupt ending to some of
Speaker 9: the innings and opportunities to score. The other part two
Speaker 9: is the Dodgers, partly because of four double plays last night.
Speaker 9: You know runners and scored position just two for twelve
Speaker 9: in the first two games of this series. The approaches
Speaker 9: have not been bad, their results have not been very good.
Speaker 9: If there's Dodger bunk club, they're just trying to string
Speaker 9: some hits together. And we'll find out today because you know,
Speaker 9: Robleski's starting for the Dodgers, he's one of the guys
Speaker 9: he's attacks the strike zone. We're going to find out
Speaker 9: about the former Dodger Dustin May, who was really lit
Speaker 9: up like a lamppost over his first two starts this year.
Speaker 9: Since that time, he's gotten much more on track. We'll
Speaker 9: find out what happens here this afternoon.
Speaker 8: And for a team and the Cardinals that was supposed
Speaker 8: to be in rebuilding mode, apparently nobody gave that memo
Speaker 8: to the players, because the way they're swinging the match,
Speaker 8: the way they're pitching, the way they're defending, they're playing
Speaker 8: like a contender.
Speaker 9: Well, they're swarming on the other team right now. They
Speaker 9: believe themselves. They're hungry. And it's the first time in
Speaker 9: a few years that we've really seen the Saint Louis
Speaker 9: Cardinals be what we have come to known over the years.
Speaker 9: Over the decades, the Saint Louis Cardinals organization, by the
Speaker 9: way that they the game. I'm talking about fundamentals and
Speaker 9: approaches that they've had at home plate so far in
Speaker 9: the first two games of this series. So we're going
Speaker 9: to find out. The other part two is I'm still
Speaker 9: mystified on why the local support has not been better
Speaker 9: than what we have seen. Bigger crowd yesterday, thirty four
Speaker 9: thousand after one of the smaller crowds ever to see
Speaker 9: a Dodger game. Really the smallest is nineteen ninety eight
Speaker 9: in the opening game of the series. It's not because
Speaker 9: of bad bad weather. Well it's been on the cool side,
Speaker 9: but today no reason not to be here. It's absolutely
Speaker 9: gorgeous and a good day to have a victory.
Speaker 5: A perfect day for a ball game today.
Speaker 8: Just looking up with the sky a little while ago,
Speaker 8: one thing's missing clouds. They do not have any in
Speaker 8: the sky above the ballpark here and that could be
Speaker 8: tough for the outfielders.
Speaker 5: That's big sun today.
Speaker 9: It is, and it's this alignment of the stadium very
Speaker 9: similar to what was beyond Leffield where the old ballpark
Speaker 9: Bush Stadium was. Yeah, it can be a little problem,
Speaker 9: especially up the middle. The other part two is they're
Speaker 9: expecting gusts up to twenty five to thirty miles an
Speaker 9: hour here this afternoon. Now, how much effect is going
Speaker 9: to have? It appears to be blowing out towards left
Speaker 9: center field, But what's the overall effect of the stands
Speaker 9: kind of blocking some of that wind? How does it
Speaker 9: affect the flight of the ball down on the field.
Speaker 8: Dodgers and Cardinals at Bush Stadium on a sunny Sunday afternoon,
Speaker 8: Dustin May three and two against Justin Robleski, the left
Speaker 8: hander is for and oh Tim.
Speaker 4: All right, thank you guys, as we count you down
Speaker 4: to first bitch on this Sunday.

Speaker 4: manager Dave Roberts. We will check in with David Vasa
Speaker 4: of course throughout the hour we break down this pitching
Speaker 4: match up. We got your Dodgers magical moment. But up

Speaker 4: from SPORTSNETLA. That's all coming up as we lead you
Speaker 4: up to Dodgers and Cardinals on this Sunday from Saint Louis.
Speaker 10: Thanks for being with us.
Speaker 4: I'm Tim Kates is the back to back World Series
Speaker 4: champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: This is Morongo Casino Dodgers name on your.
Speaker 1: Home for LA Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 4: It's a Dodgers and the Cardinals on this Sunday from
Speaker 4: Saint Louis.
Speaker 7: Justin road Blessi four to zero on.
Speaker 4: This season against old Fred Dustin May code Rehn pitching
Speaker 4: out for the Saint Lewis Cardinals.
Speaker 7: First pitch coming up had eleven fifteen.
Speaker 1: This is the Otani rewid well.
Speaker 4: The Dodgers yesterday struggled offensively as a team until the
Speaker 4: ninth Indian, where they scored a couple of runs with
Speaker 4: two outs on singles from Max Munsey and Eddie Paez.
Speaker 4: As far as show he Otani is concerned, yesterday he
Speaker 4: goes zero for four with a couple of strikeouts. Show
Speaker 4: Heo Tani now abouting two fifty two on this season
Speaker 4: with the six home runs and just thirteen RBI. He
Speaker 4: has not had an extra base hit since last Monday,
Speaker 4: when he had a double against the Miami Marlins. Hoping
Speaker 4: to shake things off, as is the Dodgers offense today,
Speaker 4: final game from Saint Louis coming up. We'll hear from
Speaker 4: Charlie Steiners. We lead you up to first pitch at
Speaker 4: eleven fifteen.
Speaker 1: This is Kirston's corner with Kirston Wasson.
Speaker 4: Hey, Kirston now joins us on this Sunday morning, brought
Speaker 4: to you by Cars for Kids, the easiest way to
Speaker 4: get rid of your old car. Donate today your car
Speaker 4: could be picked up tomorrow. That easy donating now with
Speaker 4: carsfrokids dot org.
Speaker 7: That's Cars with a K.
Speaker 4: If only scoring runs were as easy as donating your
Speaker 4: car to Cars for Kids, he goes, Really, the last
Speaker 4: four games and beyond, this offense has not been anywhere
Speaker 4: to be seen.
Speaker 11: Well played, Tim, No, look, obviously, when you see just
Speaker 11: what this offense has been doing here now on a
Speaker 11: four game losing streak. In these four games, it's only
Speaker 11: scored two runs or less. So the offense, it's fair
Speaker 11: to say it really has not been existing at the moment.
Speaker 11: But it's a new day. There's always a way to
Speaker 11: turn the page.
Speaker 5: You know what.
Speaker 11: Even when you look at what happened late in last
Speaker 11: night's game, Yes, they were shut out early, there are
Speaker 11: a lot of double plays, but with how they handled
Speaker 11: the ninth inning, how they did create a rat how
Speaker 11: they scored two runs, you were starting to kind of
Speaker 11: see that passing out the baton. The hope is is
Speaker 11: that they can just carry that into today. Obviously, with
Speaker 11: facing it off against Tustin May, there is some familiarity,
Speaker 11: but it's going to be key for the offense to
Speaker 11: get going early because especially when you're struggling. Dave Roberts
Speaker 11: did say, if you can get a lead early in
Speaker 11: the game, that does just make it a little bit easier,
Speaker 11: so it's not so much pressure that's mounting by the
Speaker 11: end of the game.
Speaker 4: You mentioned his name, Dustin May, code Red. I haven't
Speaker 4: seen him in a minute, but here he is facing
Speaker 4: his former team.
Speaker 10: He sure is.
Speaker 11: And you know what, when you look at with Dustin
Speaker 11: May's been able to do this year as of late,
Speaker 11: he's been pitching much better.
Speaker 7: The velocity is starting to uptick.
Speaker 11: But I was talking to a few of the guys
Speaker 11: because obviously you think, like, okay, Like again, early in
Speaker 11: the season, the offense was excellent against high Velow, but
Speaker 11: right now things are kind of a little bit. Obviously
Speaker 11: in general, they've been a little bit off offensively. But
Speaker 11: I was asking, you know, like do you look at
Speaker 11: this as a benefit facing off against a former teammate,
Speaker 11: and they said, you know, yes, there is familiarity, but
Speaker 11: when it comes to us may no one wants to
Speaker 11: be traded during the season with a team that's just
Speaker 11: coming off of winning the World Series. I've seen it.
Speaker 11: We know what happened. Let them going back to back.
Speaker 11: So they do believe that he's going to be pitching
Speaker 11: with a chip on his shoulder. They do believe that
Speaker 11: that means like there's going to be a probably a
Speaker 11: check in velocity. But Dave Roberts was saying that that
Speaker 11: also means that when you're trying to sometimes do too much,
Speaker 11: there could be some space for errors, and the hope
Speaker 11: is that the offense can just take advantage of those mistakes.
Speaker 11: So they do expect Dustin to come out here wanting
Speaker 11: to prove himself and kind of what the Dodgers lost
Speaker 11: from him. He is an ultimate competitor. Who said it
Speaker 11: code read, we've seen it ourselves. So the hope is
Speaker 11: they can just find ways to get to him early
Speaker 11: and they know what they're going to get. But it's
Speaker 11: having a good plan and a good plan of attack
Speaker 11: to take advantage of it.
Speaker 4: One of the benefits of having Clayton Kershaw for so
Speaker 4: many years is he was that stopper in the instance
Speaker 4: that if they had a losing streak, he would stop
Speaker 4: it because you would go out there and pitch so
Speaker 4: well the offense would somehow get going and they get
Speaker 4: back on the winning track.
Speaker 7: And for Justin Robleski, he's pitched really well this year.
Speaker 4: Kind of flows out there like the right guy, right place,
Speaker 4: right day for him, you know what it does.
Speaker 11: But even when you look at just kind of this
Speaker 11: losing streak, I don't think it's fair to say it
Speaker 11: was the pitching staff, you know, like the pitching really
Speaker 11: has been great as of late last night, Rokie Susaki
Speaker 11: had that one inning where he struggled, but ultimately, you know,
Speaker 11: had a really solid outing. But you're right that with
Speaker 11: Justin Robleski, he has truly proven just how valuable he is.
Speaker 11: Whether it's to the rotation, whether it's to the bullpen,
Speaker 11: And obviously we know what he did in the postseason
Speaker 11: last year having a shutout performance and relief. But this year,
Speaker 11: I mean he's had a one five year o ra.
Speaker 11: The stuff has looked excellent. Even with talking to him,
Speaker 11: it's kind of funny because he's like, I don't really
Speaker 11: think I'm there just yet, Like, yeah, you know, I'm
Speaker 11: getting good results, but I feel like I'm still waiting
Speaker 11: for a little bit more velow to kick in with
Speaker 11: his lighter he wants to execute it a little bit sharper,
Speaker 11: and obviously the results are saying that everything is in
Speaker 11: a very good spot. So he is very much the
Speaker 11: right guy to take the ball today because he's been
Speaker 11: obviously out of like Shoho Toni, who is probably the
Speaker 11: Bessie Hurray on her rotation right now. But he has
Speaker 11: truly been one of those guys who goes out there,
Speaker 11: he competes, he's aggressive, and so yeah, the hope is
Speaker 11: that not only he can set the tone, but he
Speaker 11: can have that run sup support early so that it's
Speaker 11: not all the pressure on the pitching.
Speaker 7: Today, No doubt, Let's get a win today.
Speaker 4: Dodgers can then head to Houston for a three game
Speaker 4: step beginning tomorrow. Karriston, we appreciate it still to come
Speaker 4: here on Marongo because you know, Dodgers on deck.
Speaker 7: We'll dive deeper into this pitching matchup.
Speaker 4: David vessagoes one on one with Josh Rawitch, former Dodger
Speaker 4: PR Maybn, now president of the Baseball Hall of Fame
Speaker 4: in Cooperstown, New York. He'll hear for him coming up
Speaker 4: in just a little bit. But up next we'll get
Speaker 4: you an injury report and we'll hear from the manager.
Speaker 4: Dave Roberts Dodgers Cardinals. First pitch at eleven fifteen. I'm
Speaker 4: Tim Kase's the back to back World Series champion Dodgers
Speaker 4: Audio Network.
Speaker 3: This is Marongo Casino, Dodgers on deck.
Speaker 1: On your hope for the blue all season.
Speaker 4: Loss Marongo because you know Dodge deck continues on this
Speaker 4: Sundays that leads up to Dodgers and Cardinals from Morongo
Speaker 4: because you know resorted in Spy Grand Slam for good times.
Speaker 4: First pitch coming up at eleven fifteen.
Speaker 3: This is the LA Dodgers Injury Report.
Speaker 4: Presented by UCLA Healthy, official medical partner of the Los
Speaker 4: Angeles Dodgers. Edwin Diaz on the iel with the yellobow surgery,
Speaker 4: Mookie Bets on the IL with the right oblique strain,
Speaker 4: Tommy Edmund working his way back from off season ankle surgery.
Speaker 4: Blake Snells with the team, throwing bullpen sessions, two minor
Speaker 4: league rehab starts in Ontario, Brock Stewart in Triple A
Speaker 4: Oklahoma City. He seems like he's the closest ready to go.
Speaker 4: Bruce dar Gratterol pitched last night in Okay See, his
Speaker 4: first time on the Mounta since Game five of the
Speaker 4: twenty twenty four World Series, so he is training in
Speaker 4: the right direction as well.
Speaker 7: Let's head back out to Saint Lewis and check out
Speaker 7: with the Dodgers skipper.
Speaker 5: Anything else Dave Questions for Dave, Dave, can you just
Speaker 5: describe Dave? Can you talk about the pressure.
Speaker 1: In the dugouts with Dave Roberts.
Speaker 12: That's my expectation. I don't know how many we've lost
Speaker 12: in a row and the offense has and you know,
Speaker 12: we haven't performed. So this is one of those things
Speaker 12: where it's a gut check in the sense of you
Speaker 12: don't want to get swept. Do we have a chance
Speaker 12: to salvage a series? And you know this is it's
Speaker 12: certainly not a must win, but this is a game
Speaker 12: that we need to find a way to win. And
Speaker 12: collectively we need to pitch well, we need to hit,
Speaker 12: play defense, run the bases, all of that. So yeah,
Speaker 12: we got we got to turn this thing around.
Speaker 11: Me facing Destin May obviously there's some familiarity there, but
Speaker 11: even with talking to a few of the guys, I
Speaker 11: do expect Destin to be pitching with a chip on
Speaker 11: his shoulder. What do you want to see just when
Speaker 11: it comes to the Bats plan of attack, going up
Speaker 11: against a guy like.
Speaker 12: Destin, he's going to be He's going to be, uh,
Speaker 12: you know, out to prove a point. And obviously you're
Speaker 12: facing your your former team. I think with that there's
Speaker 12: going to be extra motivation, adrenaline, but that there's going
Speaker 12: to be mistakes. That's just what's going to happen, and
Speaker 12: we just got to be ready for the mistakes. And
Speaker 12: I say that because I think there's gonna be a
Speaker 12: lot of extra effort into his start. I know Dustin,
Speaker 12: I know he's an emotional guy and he's gonna really
Speaker 12: want to pitch.
Speaker 4: Well, so all right, there's a manager, Dave Roberts talking
Speaker 4: about Dustin May getting the start and the Dodgers need
Speaker 4: to snap this four game losing streak. Go we continue
Speaker 4: here on Dodgers on dep We'll check in with the
Speaker 4: David Veasey gets to the latest as we lead you
Speaker 4: up to Dodgers and Cardinals on this Sunday. I'm Tim
Speaker 4: Kayson's the back to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino, Dodgers on
Speaker 3: Jack on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 4: It's the Dodgers and Cardinals on this Sunday, Justin Robleski
Speaker 4: and old friend Dustin May. The pitching matchup from Bush
Speaker 4: Stadium in Saint Louis. First pitch coming up at eleven
Speaker 4: to fifteen. Dodgers Baseball is brought to you by Alpoto,
Speaker 4: born in LA and made for your game day. Al
Speaker 4: Poto brings authentic Mexican style tomato, sauces, salces and hot
Speaker 4: sauces right to your table, El Pato Gourmet and a can.
Speaker 1: Joining Tim Kates on Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 6: I accept everybody for who they are.
Speaker 1: This is Dodger inside there, David Bassi.
Speaker 4: Right, DV here we are a couple of days into May,
Speaker 4: a good month into this season. How has the automated
Speaker 4: ball strike system work so far for the Dodgers.
Speaker 6: Well, it's worked really well for Will Smith because he
Speaker 6: has twenty three overturned challenges on thirty two calls, which
Speaker 6: are two ahead of the Marlins Augustin Ramirez for the
Speaker 6: top spot. That's a seventy two percent success rate. And
Speaker 6: so many times on Dodger Talk, Tim I still get
Speaker 6: calls on what exactly is the Dodgers' strategy when it
Speaker 6: comes to the abs. And when the Dodgers were home
Speaker 6: last week, I had a chance to catch up with
Speaker 6: Will Smith about how he goes about it behind the plate.
Speaker 13: No, it's not used as many as you can. I
Speaker 13: think it's, you know, another situation of the count, you know,
Speaker 13: kind of where we're at in the game when anywhere
Speaker 13: at was to score, you know, I think offensively, we've
Speaker 13: we've talked about trying to be a little more aggressive
Speaker 13: with it, firing a few more bullets at times instead
Speaker 13: of just leaving it to you know, Dalton and I.
Speaker 13: So it's just reading the game you know, if you're right.
Speaker 13: If you know you're right, call it. But other than that,
Speaker 13: like kind of know the situation, but also don't be
Speaker 13: afraid to fire a bullet.
Speaker 6: Have you noticed some homeplate umpires embrace it more than
Speaker 6: the others.
Speaker 13: Just to know. I think overall they've been really good. Actually,
Speaker 13: I think it kind of holds them accountable. You know,
Speaker 13: pitch to pitch, they got to be really locked in
Speaker 13: or else they're gonna get kind of embarrassed. If they
Speaker 13: don't want to be embarrassed. You know, they're all trying
Speaker 13: to do a really good job. And I think it
Speaker 13: just helps, you know, help.
Speaker 6: Some two things right there, Tim that I took away
Speaker 6: from his answer Number one. Early on the dodgery hitters
Speaker 6: were allowing pitches that many thought were obvious balls and
Speaker 6: not challenging them.
Speaker 10: We start to see more of that recently.
Speaker 6: He mentioned that number two, so talking about how umpires
Speaker 6: have to be locked in on every pitch because they
Speaker 6: don't want to get embarrassed.
Speaker 10: So only the way Will Smith can put things.
Speaker 4: David is brought to by the Ford Maverick Motor Trends
Speaker 4: of the North American Truck of the Year. The Ford
Speaker 4: Maverick everything you need in the most innovative truck with
Speaker 4: forty two miles per gallon at the best MSRP of
Speaker 4: its category. It's time to see Ford in a new light.
Speaker 4: Goodyear Southern California for dealers today, Dalton Rushing back in
Speaker 4: the lineup today, David in the final game of this series.
Speaker 4: Hard to argue his production in April, that this guy
Speaker 4: deserves a lot more playing opportunity, where though.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I know that's the tough spot right there. Will
Speaker 6: Smith is one of the most clutch hitters and one
Speaker 6: of the leaders behind the plate for the Dodgers, and
Speaker 6: then you have a future Hall of Famer in Freddie Freeman.
Speaker 6: So when Dalton Rushing gets those opportunities, and he got
Speaker 6: more than many thought in the month of April, he
Speaker 6: ran with it. He has the second most home runs
Speaker 6: on the team behind Max month Sea's nine. Rushing coming
Speaker 6: into the game has seven home runs. So you know,
Speaker 6: it's a tough spot for the Dodgers, but certainly Dalton
Speaker 6: has handled it well. I know he wants to be
Speaker 6: an everyday player. He believes he's an everyday player, but
Speaker 6: there's really no spot for him right now on an
Speaker 6: everyday basis.
Speaker 4: David, is there a learning curve you think for Dalton
Speaker 4: Rushing in some of these viral moments.
Speaker 6: I think so, and I feel like it's already happened.
Speaker 6: I know some of the veterans on the last homestand
Speaker 6: kind of got with him and said, look, I know
Speaker 6: you're a passionate player, but you can't have those moments
Speaker 6: to give the other team even more bulletin board material
Speaker 6: against us. And you don't want to get any of
Speaker 6: your teammates hurt if they're retaliating because of what you
Speaker 6: said or what you did. So they don't want to
Speaker 6: take away his aggressiveness, him being as emotional and that
Speaker 6: was the word on him in the minor leagues. He's
Speaker 6: done a better job of controlling his emotions the last
Speaker 6: year and a half here. But certainly the veterans on
Speaker 6: this team, when you talk about the culture in that
Speaker 6: Dodger clubhouse, you don't really see too many guys go
Speaker 6: viral with what they're saying in the clubhouse, in the media,
Speaker 6: or on the fields. So I feel like the veterans
Speaker 6: are going to try to help navigate him. So he's
Speaker 6: not going as viral as he was in April.
Speaker 7: That is some good stuff, all right, Dave. We'll check
Speaker 7: back with you in just a little bit.
Speaker 4: Still to come here on Wrongo Casino Dodgers on Deck,

Speaker 4: Good Dodgers and Cardinals on this Sunday, Justin Robleski and
Speaker 4: Dustin May. The pitching matchup, first pitch coming up at
Speaker 4: eleven fifteen time. Now for the Brizon startup, as we
Speaker 4: are about thirty eight minutes away from the start of
Speaker 4: the game. Now, Varianzon, you can lock in your low
Speaker 4: price for three years so you can save me visit
Speaker 4: the Rizon store today.
Speaker 7: We have things off to Charlie Steyner.
Speaker 14: All right, Tim, get away day for the Dodgers, and
Speaker 14: the way things have been going lately, they can't get
Speaker 14: away from Saint Louis fast enough. Last night, the Cardinals
Speaker 14: scored three in the third, the Dodgers scored two in
Speaker 14: the ninth.
Speaker 1: That was the game.
Speaker 14: Cardinals beat the Dodgers three to two, and so the
Speaker 14: Dodgers now mo find themselves in a four game losing
Speaker 14: streak while the Cardinals have won six in a row.
Speaker 14: And who would have known this far into the season
Speaker 14: that the Dodgers and Cardinals would have the exact same
Speaker 14: record each at twenty and thirteen.
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's unusual, to say the least. You and I
Speaker 9: we're talking off here. I mentioned this yesterday. We've had
Speaker 9: this conversation about the Saint Louis Cardinals, and there were
Speaker 9: a few years and we're just talking about recent years
Speaker 9: that they did not resemble the Saint Louis Cardinals fundamentally,
Speaker 9: the way that they played the game, the way that
Speaker 9: they structured the game. It had gone a little bit
Speaker 9: different direction. Well, now we're seeing that the wheels back
Speaker 9: on the track, and as you mentioned, yeah, identical record
Speaker 9: of what the Dodgers have at this particular time. And
Speaker 9: they just believe in themselves and it's a hungry ball club.
Speaker 9: They have the sprinkling of a lot of young players,
Speaker 9: and right now they're running on all cylinders and they're
Speaker 9: knocking on the door because the Saint Louis Cardinals, folks,
Speaker 9: along with the Cincinnati Reds, are just a game behind
Speaker 9: the Chicago Cubs for first place in the National League Central.
Speaker 14: Division, thankfully from the Dodger point of view, as they've
Speaker 14: been struggling, so have the Padres. So the Dodgers remained
Speaker 14: in first place in the National League West, but by
Speaker 14: one half game. So today, in fact, it is getaway Day,
Speaker 14: but last night the Dodgers losing again. In the last
Speaker 14: ten games, they're four and six as a team in
Speaker 14: a two thirty three batting average. Cardinals are six and
Speaker 14: four and a two sixty batting average. So you've got
Speaker 14: a team, the Dodgers, where everybody expected them to be terrific,
Speaker 14: and certainly twenty and thirteen is nothing to sneeze at.
Speaker 14: The Cardinals, on the other hand, young up and coming
Speaker 14: team who certainly can play some defense. They find themselves
Speaker 14: one game behind first place Chicago, tied with the Reds
Speaker 14: in the National League Central So you got a veteran
Speaker 14: team and a young team, and today it's not even
Speaker 14: the rubber game. The Dodgers seeking to salvage one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're going to have to hit better.
Speaker 9: They have not done that well. They're just two for
Speaker 9: twelve with runners in scoring position, a number that I
Speaker 9: look at a lot they just did not have a
Speaker 9: lot of people getting on base in last night's ball game.
Speaker 9: And then you start to look at the other picture.
Speaker 9: Besides the four in a row in the lost column,
Speaker 9: you know, they've been outscored of that period of time
Speaker 9: fifteen runs to seven, and they've just been out of sync.
Speaker 9: And for last night did not help either. They hit
Speaker 9: into four double plays. You talk about ending and inning
Speaker 9: in a hurry for dps and the Dodgers need some
Speaker 9: life and maybe in the ninth inning if they take
Speaker 9: anything away, maybe something is said, Hey, look we can
Speaker 9: string some advanced together. Don't necessarily have to hit the
Speaker 9: ball out of the ballpark, but strings some bass hits
Speaker 9: together and score some runs.
Speaker 14: It's been a long time since the team in the
Speaker 14: National League West has won a game, a collective nineteen
Speaker 14: game losing streak in the Western Division over the past
Speaker 14: ten games. The Rockies have the best record in the
Speaker 14: division at five and five. And that sounds like an
Speaker 14: audio misprint.
Speaker 1: But that's it, Yeah, it is.
Speaker 10: The Rockies have been the hottest team.
Speaker 9: Yeah, they have Arizona for example, three and seven, the
Speaker 9: Dodgers in the pandrez like you mentioned, four and six.
Speaker 9: The last ten, And for San Francisco, they're really having
Speaker 9: some issues. They're three and seven and seven games teams
Speaker 9: already behind the Dodgers, who lead the West.
Speaker 14: At least the Dodgers are beginning to get some offense.
Speaker 14: Ti Oscar Hernandez, Max Munsey six for twelve in the
Speaker 14: first two games of the series. The rest of the
Speaker 14: team is nine for fifty one, hitting won seventy six.
Speaker 14: So Teo has been hot six for eighteen in his
Speaker 14: last half dozen games, and Munthsey's having a terrific year
Speaker 14: two ninety nine a three to ninety on base percentage.
Speaker 14: And Freddie Freeman when he goes into Saint Louis not
Speaker 14: he's just the only Dodgers doing anything for real lifetime
Speaker 14: batting average at bush three sixty six, four to sixty
Speaker 14: four on base percentage. He likes the Cardinals and he
Speaker 14: likes Saint Louis, but not as much as the.
Speaker 1: Rest of this team.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Absolutely.
Speaker 9: And for Freeman, he has been one of those hard
Speaker 9: luck hitters so far this season. He's hit the ball
Speaker 9: I think is hard, if not harder than anybody on
Speaker 9: this Dodger ball club. And maybe with Andy Pottis who
Speaker 9: was struggling. You know, coming to last night, the last
Speaker 9: thirteen games, he'd hit one eighty eight. Well, he had
Speaker 9: a on RBI single in the top of the ninth
Speaker 9: in last night's game, a couple of better approaches, but
Speaker 9: he's still having difficulty. And will find out in particular
Speaker 9: on that breaking ball away, and today will Dustin May,
Speaker 9: who's going to be on the mound for Saint Louis,
Speaker 9: attempt to go breaking balls away after he bust them
Speaker 9: up and in with the fastball. We'll find out.
Speaker 14: Sasaki last night his second quality start of his fourteen
Speaker 14: big league starts. Six innings, three runs and five hits.
Speaker 14: But the youngster who has really been impressive for the
Speaker 14: Dodgers E LEFTI justin Robluski four and oh and he's
Speaker 14: got an er of a buck and a half coming
Speaker 14: into today's game.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I know that Sasaki qualifies for a quality start.
Speaker 9: There was not much there was quality in the first
Speaker 9: three innings, and they start to look at some other
Speaker 9: things too. Sasaki in six starts now and here's the pitcher.
Speaker 9: His only john is to throw the ball over the plate.
Speaker 9: You know, he's thrown strikes only sixty point six percent
Speaker 9: of the time, he's going too deep in the counts.
Speaker 9: He's throwing way too many pitches six innings last night,
Speaker 9: over one hundred pitches, and that's got to turn around.
Speaker 9: And he needs to be a little bit more succinct
Speaker 9: in finding the strength zone and challenging hitters more often,
Speaker 9: just like he did in the final four innings of
Speaker 9: last night's game.
Speaker 14: Statistically a quality start. Artistically not necessarily, but Robleski had
Speaker 14: four and on a buck fifty era. When Snell comes back,
Speaker 14: the likelihood is Robleski will remain in the rotation.
Speaker 9: Well, no reason for him not to do at this
Speaker 9: particular time. Anxious to see. Also, I found something that
Speaker 9: I found very interesting, indeed, from last year to this year,
Speaker 9: is that Robleski has lowered his arm angle. Lowering the
Speaker 9: arm angle, Charlie, I think gives him a different spin
Speaker 9: as releases the baseball fastball in particular, and he seems
Speaker 9: to be getting more movement, which has caused problems for hitters.
Speaker 14: All the Dodgers leaving Saint Louis right after this game
Speaker 14: down to Houston. The Astros have been struggling, but we'll
Speaker 14: worry about that tomorrow, all right.
Speaker 7: Thank you, Charlie.

Speaker 1: This is high and tight.
Speaker 6: Well, last weekend was a great celebration weekend for Rick Monday,
Speaker 6: who fifty years ago saved the American Flag at Dodger
Speaker 6: Stadium wearing the Cubs uniform. Not only was Rick celebrated
Speaker 6: at Dodger Stadium, but he's going to be celebrated the
Speaker 6: rest of the summer in Cooperstown at the Baseball Hall
Speaker 6: of Fame as the American flag that Rick Monday brought
Speaker 6: back to Dodgers Stadium is now at the Baseball Hall
Speaker 6: of Fame and is going to be part of the
Speaker 6: country's two hundred and fiftieth celebration out there in Cooperstown.
Speaker 6: And right now is a man that was joined at
Speaker 6: the hip with Rick Monday last weekend at Dodgers Stadium.
Speaker 6: And he's the man, a great eight one eight man
Speaker 6: from Chatsworth High School, and he is now the president
Speaker 6: of the Baseball Hall of Fame, the one and only
Speaker 6: Josh Rawitch. Josh, thanks a lot for the time and
Speaker 6: it was great to see you back at Dodgers Stadium
Speaker 6: last weekend.
Speaker 2: Thanks David. I love being I love representing the eight
Speaker 2: one to eight. But more importantly, I love being back
Speaker 2: that way and seeing all of you guys.
Speaker 10: So thank you, Josh. You've been around Rick Monday a
Speaker 10: long time.
Speaker 6: Had you ever come that close to the American flag
Speaker 6: that he saved back in nineteen seventy six?
Speaker 2: No, I really hadn't. Honestly, it's funny. I was thinking
Speaker 2: about this recently, the twenty five years ago when he
Speaker 2: was celebrating the twenty fifth anniversary of this incredible moment.
Speaker 2: I was a writer for Dodgers dot Com and I
Speaker 2: wrote about it for the Dodgers' website, So pretty crazy
Speaker 2: that quarter century later, I was part of the team
Speaker 2: that transported it back here, and it's now in our vaults,
Speaker 2: getting ready for exhibit here coming up very soon in Cooperstown.
Speaker 6: Can you share with us for baseball fans that are
Speaker 6: coming out for the inauguration weekend for the new class
Speaker 6: of this year's Baseball Hall of Fame and throughout the
Speaker 6: entire summer the celebration of America's two hundred in fiftieth birthday.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, this bag and this exhibit is a
Speaker 2: big focal point for that. But all summer long we'll
Speaker 2: be celebrating America to fifty and it kicks off over
Speaker 2: Memorial Day weekend. Moe is actually going to play in
Speaker 2: our Military Classic, which is a tribute to service and sacrifice.
Speaker 2: Obviously he's a very proud veteran. So we have several
Speaker 2: former Big leaguers who were veterans that are going to
Speaker 2: be playing in this game, and many players who played
Speaker 2: in the Big Leagues who either had family members who
Speaker 2: served or supported the troops. So it all starts Memorial
Speaker 2: Day weekend and all sorts of cool events here, and
Speaker 2: we're also going to have the opening of a different
Speaker 2: exhibit that weekend, the Rules of Baseball, which go back
Speaker 2: to eighteen fifty seven, literally the document that from the
Speaker 2: Convention of eighteen fifty seven that codified baseball rules. So
Speaker 2: all sorts of cool stuff for people to see here
Speaker 2: in Cooperstown. And then he'll be back again Hall of
Speaker 2: Fame weekend in late July to be honored once again
Speaker 2: for his dedication to raising awareness for military causes and
Speaker 2: for that move fifty years ago that saved the flag
Speaker 2: at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 10: That's amazing.
Speaker 6: And when you talk about having the rules of baseball,
Speaker 6: were those written by Alexander Kartwright, what are the rules
Speaker 6: of baseball?
Speaker 10: What do they look like?
Speaker 2: So it really is, in a way almost like a
Speaker 2: constitution document. If you go to the Smithsonian, you go
Speaker 2: to one of the museums in DC, and you see
Speaker 2: behind the really special glass. These were basically about about
Speaker 2: fifteen pages or so that came out of the Knickerbocker
Speaker 2: Convention in fifty seven. So it wouldn't have been Kartwright.
Speaker 2: It would have been a group of people who were
Speaker 2: part of the New York Knickerbockers, and they got together
Speaker 2: in February of fifty seven to try to start to
Speaker 2: figure out, Hey, which rules we want to play by?
Speaker 2: We all had There's a lot of different ways the
Speaker 2: game is being played. And there's a gentleman in San
Speaker 2: Diego named Hayden Trubitt who bought these rules about ten
Speaker 2: years ago or so and is loaning them to us
Speaker 2: for the next five years. So rick flag is only
Speaker 2: on display this summer. The Rules of Baseball will be
Speaker 2: out for the next five years here in Cooperstown, alongside
Speaker 2: all sorts of other really cool stuff to come see
Speaker 2: and do.
Speaker 6: Yeah, of course, the Baseball Hall of Fame is definitely
Speaker 6: a pilgrimage every baseball fans should take at some point
Speaker 6: in time in their lives. And we're joined right now
Speaker 6: by the President of the Baseball Hall of Fame, Josh Rawitch.
Speaker 6: And Josh obviously, the country's two hundred and fiftieth birthday
Speaker 6: did not sneak up on you.
Speaker 10: How long did it.
Speaker 6: Take to work with Rick and his wife, Barbara Lee
Speaker 6: to plan on getting the American flag to honor not
Speaker 6: only America's birthday, but the anniversary of him saving the
Speaker 6: flag fifty years ago.
Speaker 2: Well, you're right, it's not an easy process, and they've
Speaker 2: been very careful. It really has never left their possession
Speaker 2: since this happened fifty years ago. So I think I
Speaker 2: may have first mentioned it to him maybe three years
Speaker 2: ago or so, I think when the Dodgers had the
Speaker 2: All Star Game, maybe, or at some point a couple
Speaker 2: summers ago, And then it was last spring training. We
Speaker 2: sat down for dinner and I kind of explained to
Speaker 2: him the care and the tension of detail that our
Speaker 2: team puts into making sure that it's safe, it's secure,
Speaker 2: that it's in proper humidity and light and temperature controlled casing.
Speaker 2: So once I think he realized he and Barbara Lee
Speaker 2: understood just how closely we'd look after it. They started
Speaker 2: thinking more seriously about it, and then just I guess
Speaker 2: it was late last fall, Rick was honored by the
Speaker 2: Bob Feller acta Valor foundation in DC, and I went
Speaker 2: to that event and they let us know that they
Speaker 2: were on board. They were going to let us bring
Speaker 2: this thing to Cooper's Down And honestly, everybody here is
Speaker 2: so excited because it's just it's so rare to have
Speaker 2: something that unique. I mean, it's just such a We
Speaker 2: have an incredible collection of baseballs and bats and gloves
Speaker 2: and all these amazing things from Dodger history and baseball history,
Speaker 2: but this is this is about as singular and artifact
Speaker 2: as you can get. There is nothing else like this,
Speaker 2: and to have it here this summer is going to
Speaker 2: be really cool.
Speaker 6: When can fans start to see it? When can they
Speaker 6: start to see this exhibit that you and the Hall
Speaker 6: of Fame have put together this summer? What's the first
Speaker 6: date of you know, fans wanting to plan a trip
Speaker 6: out there to see all this.
Speaker 2: So the Memorial Day weekend in May May twenty second, third, fourth,
Speaker 2: we'll open the exhibit on Friday night in a little
Speaker 2: bit of a private event, and then Saturday, which is
Speaker 2: the day of the Classic. Fans, there are still tickets
Speaker 2: available for that, So if people wanted to make a
Speaker 2: trip from a Royal Day weekend, I highly recommend it.
Speaker 2: It's a really cool time here and it'll run all
Speaker 2: the way through Labor Day weekend. That's usually our kind
Speaker 2: of busy season here in Cooperstown, and then we'll eventually
Speaker 2: return it to him as we get into the fall.
Speaker 2: But if you want to see the flag, you got
Speaker 2: to come this summer. And then there's all sorts of
Speaker 2: other amazing Dodger stuff here. I mean, you can imagine
Speaker 2: every year we collect artifacts from the World Series. So
Speaker 2: there's a whole exhibit focused on the twenty five championship
Speaker 2: with all sorts of cool things from Migul Rojas and
Speaker 2: Otani and Freddy and then you just go back and
Speaker 2: time Jackie Robinson and Campanella, Drysdale, Cofax, just artifacts from
Speaker 2: Dodger history that would really blow Dodger fans' minds if
Speaker 2: they came out here to see it.
Speaker 6: And to get tickets to the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Speaker 6: It's simple Baseballhall dot Org is where you can make
Speaker 6: all your plans. And you brought up last year's World Series.
Speaker 6: We did see you during the World Series last year.
Speaker 6: What do you have from Miguel Rojas since he was
Speaker 6: the hero to save the season.
Speaker 2: Well, it's actually an amazing story. We really were a
Speaker 2: little hesitant to ask for his bat, and we had
Speaker 2: Freddie had already confirmed that he was giving us his
Speaker 2: bat from the eighteen eighty Games, so we actually asked
Speaker 2: Rojas for his batting gloves and he had said, you know,
Speaker 2: I promise these to the patron saint in Venezuela. And
Speaker 2: I said, well, we can't possibly ask you to take
Speaker 2: it back from that promise, and he said, what if
Speaker 2: I gave you the bat, which is really pretty special.
Speaker 2: So we do have here on display Miguel's bat, alongside
Speaker 2: jerseys from Shohey and Dave Roberts, and the glove that
Speaker 2: Mookie used to turn the final double play, all all
Speaker 2: sorts of cool stuff from not only that World Series,
Speaker 2: but obviously the one before it, all of the Dodgers Championships,
Speaker 2: the last out ball from nineteen eighty eight, all just
Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, a Dodger fan who comes here is
Speaker 2: going to have an amazing time and play some golf,
Speaker 2: get on the lake and see America's most perfect village.
Speaker 6: Josh, thanks a lot for the time. Looking forward to
Speaker 6: seeing how this exhibit comes together beginning Memorial Day weekend.
Speaker 6: Rick Monday the American flag that he saved fifty years
Speaker 6: ago part of an incredible exhibit at Baseball's Hall of
Speaker 6: Fame in Cooperstown. And the man that has the vision
Speaker 6: for all this is the President of the Baseball Hall

Speaker 4: Soporo has you covered with a variety of crisp and
Speaker 4: refreshing loggers, including light and non alcoholic beer. Pooh, good
Speaker 4: with sushi, great with baseball? All right, before first pitch,
Speaker 4: we head back out to the booth at Bush Stadium
Speaker 4: as we check in with Tim nevern Rick Monday.
Speaker 8: Guys, Tim, thanks again as we count you down to
Speaker 8: the first pitch this afternoon in Saint Louis in the
Speaker 8: shadow of the Arch on the banks of the Mississippi River.
Speaker 8: The Dodgers and left hander Justin Robleski to the mound.
Speaker 5: He is four and zero with a one.
Speaker 8: Five zero era, his era right now second in the
Speaker 8: National League only to show hey Otani, who wrapped up
Speaker 8: his throwing program a little while ago, and he will
Speaker 8: pitch Tuesday in Houston against the Astros. But Robleski has
Speaker 8: been nothing if not very good.
Speaker 9: Well, he's been a breath of fresh air. Not only
Speaker 9: the low er, but how about the batting average against
Speaker 9: just one eighty three? What we will be watching what
Speaker 9: I'm going to be watching something I found last night
Speaker 9: just looking at some numbers. He lowered his arm angle
Speaker 9: towards the end of last year. What difference does that make?
Speaker 9: Wills of a five degree difference, and it's giving him
Speaker 9: a better run, better spin, and better movement. The ball
Speaker 9: going away from right handed batters a little bit more
Speaker 9: and in the lefties. So he dropped it down a
Speaker 9: little bit more. We'll find the effectiveness year this afternoon, Dust.
Speaker 8: And May going. He got his World Series ring two
Speaker 8: days ago. Now he's a cardinal pitching against his former teammates.
Speaker 8: First two starts he gave up thirteen runs over seven
Speaker 8: and a third innings. His last four starts, he's only
Speaker 8: allowed five in runs, six runs total and twenty three
Speaker 8: and a third inning. So he's been much better over
Speaker 8: his last four.
Speaker 9: Yeah, and not primarily a fastball pitcher, only twenty seven
Speaker 9: percent on the fastball, then the slider, the curve, the cutter,
Speaker 9: and the change up on top of it. One big
Speaker 9: change that he has made. He's controlled the running game
Speaker 9: much better last year fifteen stolen bases out of nineteen
Speaker 9: attempts so far this season, zero and two when trying
Speaker 9: to steal off the big right hander.
Speaker 8: The right hander Dustin May for the Cardinals the lefty
Speaker 8: Justin Robluski for the Dodgers, teams with identical twenty and
Speaker 8: thirteen records as they enter this ballgame, the Dodgers trying
Speaker 8: to salvage one in this three game set.
Speaker 4: Tim all right, Dodgers twenty and thirteen, losers of four
Speaker 4: in a row, only a half game up on the Padres,
Speaker 4: who are in action later on today against the Chicago
Speaker 4: White Sox. The only good thing is that the Padres
Speaker 4: continue to lose as well. They are half game back
Speaker 4: of the Dodgers in the standings. They too, have dropped
Speaker 4: four in a row. The Dodgers during this four game
Speaker 4: losing streak, offensive struggles to twenty five average a five
Speaker 4: point fifty nine ops, zero home runs, they're averaging under
Speaker 4: two runs per game, and they're hitting two hundred as
Speaker 4: a team with runners in scoring position. Dodgers have lost
Speaker 4: four in a row. The Cardinals have won six in
Speaker 4: a row. That's got to change today in this series finale.
Speaker 4: Justin Robleski, Dustin May, I'll be back with the post
Speaker 4: game and Dodger talk as well.
Speaker 7: When this thing is over and the Dodgers head to Houston.
Speaker 7: First pitch.
Speaker 4: Next, enjoined everybody, I'm Tim Kass, the back to back
