Well the Dodgers 0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:48.559 last in action on Wednesday, the Dodgers in an early 0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:51.760 hold down one to nothing. Tyler Glass, now before he 0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:54.120 went out to pitch the second inning, had to come 0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:57.280 out of the game with lower back soreness. Turned out 0:01:57.480 --> 0:01:59.640 he had spasms in his lower back. He has now 0:01:59.680 --> 0:02:02.200 gone on the injured list, so it became a bullpen 0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:04.160 game for the Dodgers. The rest of the way, Jack 0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:06.720 Dryer took over. He'd go two innings at Gardo n 0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:09.600 Riquez win two innings, Kyle Hurt winning inning, Blake trying 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:11.320 to win an inning, ten Or Scott win an inning, 0:02:11.480 --> 0:02:15.079 Brock Stewart winning innings, striking out too. Meanwhile, the Dodgers 0:02:15.080 --> 0:02:17.840 offense got it going in the second inning, Kyle Tucker 0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:21.440 scored on a wild pitch. Alex Freelan scored on a 0:02:21.480 --> 0:02:25.280 wild pitch. Alance mccollos Junior made it three wild pitches 0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:28.000 in two innings to give the Dodgers a three to 0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:30.919 one lead. Then still in the third, he served one 0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:32.240 up to Pies. 0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:37.280 And a to two pitch Swyon Hamber deep left fan 0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:42.720 way back, and this ball is gone, a three don 0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:45.480 home down Andy pie has and the Dodgers lead at 0:02:45.639 --> 0:02:47.360 six to one. 0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:52.600 Oh, no doubt or are left. 0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:56.400 Andy pie Has with a three run home run in 0:02:56.480 --> 0:02:58.919 the top half of the third, Indians. The Dodgers exploded 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:00.880 for a six to one lead, and they were just 0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:03.880 getting started. In the fourth, Freddie Freeman and RBI double 0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:06.880 Dodgers with a seven to one lead. Then in the fifth, 0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:09.400 a runner on for Andy Paz again. 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:13.520 Retractable roofs, but they hardly opened it. Pi Rips went 0:03:13.639 --> 0:03:16.720 deep to left. It has gone into the Crawford boxes. 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:21.120 A two run home run for Paz, his second round 0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:24.680 tripper of the ballgame, and the Dodgers lead it nine 0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:25.119 to one. 0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:29.600 Home run number seven for Paz. 0:03:30.440 --> 0:03:33.080 He got a round of a sinker that was on 0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:36.200 the inner half and he just hammered it. 0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:39.440 Two run home run for Andy Paes, a nine to 0:03:39.560 --> 0:03:43.600 one Dodgers lead, A show heyl tany RBIs single made 0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:45.840 it a ten to one Dodgers' lead. 0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:48.920 Is that was the highlight of the game. 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:51.560 Top tier play, the game brought to you by Arco quality, 0:03:51.680 --> 0:03:53.040 top tier gas for less. 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.080 Dodgers still weren't done. Up ten to one. 0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:57.800 Alex Freelan with the RBI single in the seventh made 0:03:57.840 --> 0:03:59.800 it an eleven to one game. Dodgers up eleven to 0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:02.200 two with the top of the ninth position player on 0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:05.600 pitching for the Astros and O' blowout, and Andy Pajez says, 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:07.440 let me go deep one more time, and he did 0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:10.440 a solo shot. Dodgers a twelve to two lead. They 0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:12.840 go on and win by that same final score. How 0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:17.520 about Andy Pajez three home run game drives in six 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:21.200 of the Dodgers' twelve runs. The Dodgers twelve runs on 0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:25.640 fourteen hits as they get the win. Jack Dreyer picks 0:04:25.680 --> 0:04:28.360 up the win in relief, going the two shutout innings. 0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:30.160 He's now two to one on the season. 0:04:30.200 --> 0:04:33.040 The Dodgers win the finale in Houston, they take two 0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:35.360 to three from the Astros. They go three and three 0:04:35.440 --> 0:04:37.839 on the road trip, as they're now sitting at twenty 0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:41.520 three and fourteen overall on this season, and the Dodgers 0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:44.400 going into play tonight a one game lead over the 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:47.480 San Diego Padres and the Division. But the Atlanta Braves 0:04:47.480 --> 0:04:49.760 in town, who are twenty six and twelve, tied for 0:04:49.800 --> 0:04:52.360 the best record in the National League as far as 0:04:52.400 --> 0:04:54.880 twenty six wins, and they're gonna have their hands full 0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:57.720 to night against Chris Sale. Dodgers meanwhile, go with image 0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:59.520 she and first pitch is seven ten, and with more 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:02.200 to the gallop of four broadcast booth, as we say 0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:04.440 hello to Charlie Steiner and Rick Monday. 0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:05.120 Guys. 0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:08.599 All right, Tim, it's a beautiful night here at Dodgers Stadium, 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:11.279 first of a three game series two of the best 0:05:11.279 --> 0:05:14.479 teams in the game facing off the Dodgers at twenty 0:05:14.560 --> 0:05:17.880 three and fourteen, a one game lead over the Padres 0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:20.800 in the Western Division. They are hosting the Cardinals tonight, 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:24.239 and it's the Atlanta Braids at twenty six and twelve, 0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:27.480 first place in the National League East, eight games in 0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:30.320 front of Washington. In fact, the Braves are the only 0:05:30.360 --> 0:05:33.200 team over five hundred in the Eastern Division. But the 0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:38.200 big story tonight, oh the return of Blake Snell tomorrow. 0:05:38.480 --> 0:05:40.920 And it's been a long time in coming back and 0:05:41.000 --> 0:05:43.960 wondering exactly when he was going to go. Also on 0:05:44.040 --> 0:05:47.040 the horizon is Mookie Benz. Because Bents will start at 0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:51.200 Triple A tonight, playing again tomorrow, we may possibly see 0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:54.440 him as early as Monday, back with the active ruster. 0:05:54.400 --> 0:05:56.160 And that would be against the Giants. 0:05:56.279 --> 0:05:59.400 In the meantime, here are the Dodgers and the Braves, 0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:03.760 their first or second in almost every important offensive category. 0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:07.280 Dodgers hitting two seventy three, they're first, the Braves are 0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:11.159 hitting two seventy. There's second on base percentage the Dodgers 0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:14.360 three fifty two and second place the Braves at three 0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:17.920 thirty five. They're on base percentage is fourth. And as 0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:20.719 far as home runs are concerned, the Braves have fifty 0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:23.880 five they are first, and the Dodgers have fifty home 0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:24.920 runs tied at third. 0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:27.839 So you got two offensive juggernauts going on. 0:06:28.000 --> 0:06:30.320 And I think that this series too, Charlie. I mean, 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:32.000 this is going to be the biggest task the Dodgers 0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:34.040 have had put in front of you. Not to diminish 0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:36.159 the ability of other teams that they've played, but for 0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:38.479 the Atlanta brains, they come in, as you mentioned, eight 0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:40.400 games in front of the second place team in the 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:43.400 Eastern Division. They're operating in all cylinders. There are also 0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:46.880 fourteen wins in twenty games that they played on the road, 0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:48.600 so a lot of different things are going on. They 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:51.200 have Chris Sale on the mound. He has been sensational 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:54.159 so far and today's gonna be a big night also 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:56.360 for Emmit Sheeen getting the start. We'll talk about the 0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:58.960 pitching a little bit later on, but from an offensive standpoint, 0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:01.919 one thing that the Dodgers did not do particularly well 0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.080 on the last road trip, and if we look at 0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:07.440 the last seven games, they have taken themselves offensively out 0:07:07.480 --> 0:07:11.880 of possibility of scoring. They've hit into thirteen double plays 0:07:11.920 --> 0:07:15.040 over the last seven games. That has to change again. 0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:18.680 One of the stories tonight Shean, of course, is this 0:07:18.760 --> 0:07:22.080 an audition for him to remain in the rotation. As 0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:25.760 we mentioned, Snell is coming back tomorrow. We'll talk about 0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:29.040 Snell and Shan more in more detail. But for Shean, 0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:29.560 this is. 0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:33.200 Perhaps a make or break opportunity for him tonight to 0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:34.080 stay in the rotation. 0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:36.200 And Dave Roberts talking to members of the media this 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:38.640 afternoon and said that he did talk to Shean about 0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:40.640 the factors that go out and we've said this over 0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:44.360 and over, attack the strike zone. And for Shean, what 0:07:44.520 --> 0:07:47.200 is rather strange about Sheen now here he is is 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:50.360 eers almost at five and a quarter making a seven start. 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:53.400 He's not been taking pillar to post, always given up 0:07:53.400 --> 0:07:56.240 thirty two hits and thirty one innings, but he's also 0:07:56.320 --> 0:07:59.400 struck out thirty six. The slider has been his bread 0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:01.840 and butter, and there's a very low batting average against 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:04.480 the slider, and that's a pitch that he really needs. 0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:07.120 Perhaps he has some breathing room as far as the 0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:10.040 rotation is concerned. We still don't know the status of 0:08:10.080 --> 0:08:11.960 Tyler Glass now who came out with the back. 0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:15.120 Yeah, exactly. And this is a Dodger bulklow too. It's 0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:17.880 interesting that you know, Dave Roberts changes the lineup a 0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:21.600 little bit tonight. Facing the left handers, sale Will Smith 0:08:21.640 --> 0:08:25.120 will bat second, Freddy Freeman at third, Andy Pahes who's 0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:27.160 starting to come alive again with the bat, not that 0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:29.760 he's really struggled at all. He's hitting in the number 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:33.079 four position. Was seeing Miguel Rojas on his bibblehead night 0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:33.960 at shortstop. 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:35.600 Monsey bats in the. 0:08:35.559 --> 0:08:39.120 Eighth position in Santiago Espino is going to bat ninth 0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:40.200 and play at second base. 0:08:40.320 --> 0:08:42.880 Chris Sale, who has won four in a row, giving 0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:46.440 up three runs in his last twenty six innings, allowing 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:48.760 the opposition a brand total of a one to seventy 0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:51.160 six batting average, one of the best in the game, 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:55.240 Chris Sale six and one of two fourteen eer against 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:57.920 Emma Chian and two of the best teams in the 0:08:57.960 --> 0:08:59.959 game in the first of a three game series. 0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:02.240 And we'll set it back to. 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:04.199 You, Tim, all right, thank you, Charlie. 0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:06.480 If we count you down the first pitch, Dodger fans 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:09.720 get that game day meal on a Shaky's Bezza parlor. 0:09:09.760 --> 0:09:13.319 You can order your Shaky's Bezza Chicken and mojos.

And the Dodgers, with 0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:34.400 nobody out, had runners at second and third as. 0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:37.160 A breaking ball away and Otani just went out, surrounded 0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:39.800 the ball and pulls it down the right field line. 0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:42.040 Sure he really wants to lean into one if he 0:10:42.080 --> 0:10:46.520 gets the chance. Three one pitch, he swings hand lines 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:49.040 it on the left center field of base hit. Rounding 0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:53.640 second is Freeland in the score is rushing an RBI 0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:56.360 baship with two outs for show Hey Otani and the 0:10:56.400 --> 0:10:57.559 Dodgers lead. 0:10:57.440 --> 0:10:58.360 It ten to one. 0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:02.959 Show Hey Otany breaking out on a big way offensively. 0:11:03.000 --> 0:11:05.640 He scored on a wild pitch, He had a double, 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:07.400 h had an RBI single in the fifth. 0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:08.640 Otani goes two for. 0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:13.160 Four and RBI a walk on base three times. Otani 0:11:13.240 --> 0:11:15.480 with a big afternoon in Houston in a twelve to 0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:16.240 two Dodger win. 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:21.360 This is Kirston's corner with Kirston Watson. 0:11:21.280 --> 0:11:23.520 And Kirson now joins us from the stadium. Brought to you 0:11:23.520 --> 0:11:25.800 by Cars for Kids. The easiest way to get rid 0:11:25.840 --> 0:11:28.720 of that old car. Donating today, your car be picked 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:31.120 up tomorrow donating now Cars for Kids dot Org. That's 0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:34.720 Cars with O K the big news. Tyler Glass now 0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:38.600 goes to the IL and Paul Gervase gets called up. 0:11:39.040 --> 0:11:40.560 Yeah, so when we were on the road and we 0:11:40.600 --> 0:11:43.720 saw obviously with Tyler Glass now in Houston, he was 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:46.560 able to make his start. But after that first inning 0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:47.959 of work, when he was throwing a couple of warm 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:50.720 up pitches to start his second inning, you know, he 0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:54.480 kind of immediately, you know, pointing to the dugout, asked 0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:56.400 for the training staff and Dave Roberts to come out 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:59.560 check on him. Afterwards, he shared that he was feeling 0:11:59.559 --> 0:12:03.200 a backst which is something that he has experienced with 0:12:03.320 --> 0:12:06.400 his career. Obviously, he's very tall, he's very athletic, but 0:12:06.559 --> 0:12:09.600 with that height and having very long levers, sometimes it 0:12:09.640 --> 0:12:13.040 can lead to some lower back pain, back spasms of sorts. 0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:15.760 He even shared that this is something that he really 0:12:15.800 --> 0:12:18.720 has been dealing with since he had his growth spurt 0:12:18.800 --> 0:12:21.840 when he was younger. So for him, right now he 0:12:21.880 --> 0:12:24.640 did have an MRI. Dave Roberts did say that the 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:28.480 results of the MRI they didn't show anything new. As 0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:30.760 I mentioned, this is something that Tyler has dealt with, 0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:32.959 whether it was last year, whether it's just within the past. 0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:36.040 So it's essentially presenting the same stuff when it comes 0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:38.320 to his MRI. So that is a good sign. And 0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:40.960 the other good news is whether it was the one 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:42.960 that he was scratched from his start when the team 0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:45.640 was in Baltimore. He was able to make a start 0:12:45.640 --> 0:12:48.319 a few days later, but in the past, if he's 0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:51.480 got on the IL, it truly has been just the 0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:55.240 fourteen day fifteen day I els did. So the hope 0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:57.040 with this one is that's going to be the case 0:12:57.080 --> 0:13:00.040 for Tyler. But obviously it's early in the season and 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:01.720 they want to make sure that he's in a good spot. 0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:03.360 They want to make sure that his back is healthy 0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:05.520 so that he could continue to be as efficient and 0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:08.320 effective as he's been to start this year and even 0:13:08.320 --> 0:13:10.559 how he ended last year. So they do have Paul 0:13:10.640 --> 0:13:13.520 Durvas here, But honestly, it kind of feels like things 0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:15.400 you never want to see a picture go down, but 0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:18.080 timing does feel like it's right because they obviously are 0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:20.520 going to be having Blake Snell, who is now we 0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:22.160 know is going to be returning tomorrow. 0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:24.439 Yeah, he'll get the start tomorrow instead of a rehab 0:13:24.480 --> 0:13:27.880 start in Ontario. With that being said, Emma Shean gets 0:13:27.920 --> 0:13:30.000 to start tonight for the Dodgers, and it kind of 0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:32.679 feel likes every start now for Shean's are big starts. 0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:37.480 It does Emmitt this year, there are times where everything 0:13:37.520 --> 0:13:39.440 is right, he's in a good spot, he's competing, But 0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:41.040 then there are other times where he's just kind of 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:44.480 you know, when it comes to his delivery. How they say, 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:47.680 when it comes to him, he is a rotational pitcher, 0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:49.440 so how he's coming down the mound, and there were 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:51.400 times where he was a little bit too rotational, so 0:13:51.440 --> 0:13:54.079 he was flying open and that was leading to a 0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:56.560 little drop off of velocity, drop off of command. And 0:13:56.920 --> 0:13:58.040 so he's been working. 0:13:57.720 --> 0:13:59.160 Through a few things this year. 0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:01.560 He had said that he found, you know, maybe two 0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:04.439 starts ago, he felt that he got back to his 0:14:04.440 --> 0:14:07.079 bluff tack and that kind of got him back on sync, 0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:09.640 got him back with his rhythm and timing. But then 0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:11.800 he has like his last start in which he was 0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:14.640 in Saint Louis, and it was one of those up 0:14:14.679 --> 0:14:17.360 and down types of outings, and so the velocity had 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:20.120 dropped off. He was at averaging at about ninety three 0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:22.680 point four, which if you look at just his velocity 0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:25.120 when it comes to his career, not only was that 0:14:25.200 --> 0:14:28.200 a tick down from the start before, that's actually the 0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:30.440 lowest that it's been in his career. So it's been 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:33.120 clear that he's continuously working on things and trying to 0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:35.560 figure out just what's right. So now he goes up 0:14:35.600 --> 0:14:38.640 against a team like the Braves, who look, they have 0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:41.440 been excellent. It's no secret they're one of the best 0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:44.080 teams in Major League Baseball. And so he goes up 0:14:44.080 --> 0:14:45.920 against this team. It's going to be a tough lineup. 0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:49.400 But Dave was saying this could be a very good test, 0:14:49.520 --> 0:14:51.680 or even a really good challenge for emit Sheian, because 0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:54.040 ultimately he doesn't want him to go out there and 0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:56.320 try to be too mechanical and try to be too fine. 0:14:56.360 --> 0:14:58.160 He just wants him to go out there and compete, 0:14:58.440 --> 0:15:00.320 and if he does that, he does believe that this 0:15:00.360 --> 0:15:02.840 could be a really strong start for Emmit Shean, and 0:15:03.280 --> 0:15:05.360 he did say that Emmon is looking forward to this one. 0:15:05.400 --> 0:15:07.120 You know, he's a competitor and he wants to go 0:15:07.280 --> 0:15:09.560 up against the best, and today he's going to get 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:10.640 the up chain to do just that. 0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:13.240 Well, it's a big time game against the team that's 0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:15.240 got the most wins of the National League and the 0:15:15.240 --> 0:15:18.040 Atlanta Braves. We'll see what Immachine can do tonight. Here said, 0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:20.120 we appreciate it. So they come here on Marongo Casino 0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:22.760 Dodgers on Deck.

But yeah, 0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:14.720 I mean if that does happen, then certainly we're gonna 0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:17.280 have some conversations, you know, looking out for the next 0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:19.440 you know, five to eight nine days. 0:17:19.520 --> 0:17:22.600 Yeah, as careful as you guys usually are with making 0:17:22.640 --> 0:17:26.359 sure guys are prepped for September and October, why I 0:17:26.520 --> 0:17:26.800 just go. 0:17:26.760 --> 0:17:30.520 Ahead and give time right now?
