WEBVTT - Dodger Talk (8-28-26) 

0:00:00.610 --> 0:00:04.080
<v Speaker 1>For the back-to-back world champions of baseball. One of the

0:00:04.140 --> 0:00:08.030
<v Speaker 1>greatest runs in the history of baseball. Immortality. is within

0:00:08.060 --> 0:00:08.639
<v Speaker 1>their reach.

0:00:09.060 --> 0:00:10.190
<v Speaker 2>Incredible.

0:00:10.410 --> 0:00:12.110
<v Speaker 1>And while others make excuses.

0:00:12.410 --> 0:00:14.390
<v Speaker 2>The only reason the Dodgers are doing this is because

0:00:14.430 --> 0:00:15.470
<v Speaker 2>they can. They print money.

0:00:15.510 --> 0:00:17.370
<v Speaker 1>The Dodgers. This can't continue.

0:00:17.430 --> 0:00:18.290
<v Speaker 3>It's not fair.

0:00:18.470 --> 0:00:19.550
<v Speaker 1>Are making plans.

0:00:19.950 --> 0:00:20.290
<v Speaker 4>Again.

0:00:20.450 --> 0:00:25.310
<v Speaker 5>It's a singular focus on controlling what they can control.

0:00:25.510 --> 0:00:29.190
<v Speaker 1>Now your pregame host of the world champion LA Dodgers,

0:00:29.670 --> 0:00:31.670
<v Speaker 1>Tim Cates. Well, hi everybody.

0:00:31.770 --> 0:00:35.750
<v Speaker 2>And good afternoon. It's Morongo casino Dodgers on deck on

0:00:35.790 --> 0:00:40.029
<v Speaker 2>this Friday, August 28th. You're back to back world series

0:00:40.070 --> 0:00:43.940
<v Speaker 2>champion Dodgers on the road in Detroit. As they continue

0:00:43.979 --> 0:00:47.159
<v Speaker 2>this six game East coast road trip Dodgers at 80

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:50.500
<v Speaker 2>and 54 on the season first place atop the NL West.

0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:52.860
<v Speaker 2>They've got an eight game lead in the division. However,

0:00:52.880 --> 0:00:55.540
<v Speaker 2>they're now three games back in Milwaukee. for the top

0:00:55.580 --> 0:00:57.660
<v Speaker 2>spot in the National League. They're a game up on

0:00:57.720 --> 0:01:00.580
<v Speaker 2>Atlanta for the second spot in the National League. That's

0:01:00.620 --> 0:01:03.520
<v Speaker 2>because the Dodgers are fresh off getting swept down south

0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:06.750
<v Speaker 2>in Atlanta over the last three days. The Dodgers now

0:01:06.810 --> 0:01:09.530
<v Speaker 2>in Detroit looking to turn things around. And wouldn't you

0:01:09.590 --> 0:01:12.030
<v Speaker 2>know it, it's the return of Tarek Skubal to his

0:01:12.150 --> 0:01:15.330
<v Speaker 2>own stopping grounds there at Comerica Park. in Detroit to

0:01:15.370 --> 0:01:18.030
<v Speaker 2>face his former team in the series opener. First pitch

0:01:18.090 --> 0:01:20.540
<v Speaker 2>is coming up at three 40 between now. And then though,

0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:22.840
<v Speaker 2>we got a lot to get to here on Morongo

0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:25.119
<v Speaker 2>casino Dodgers on deck. You're going to hear from the manager,

0:01:25.140 --> 0:01:28.310
<v Speaker 2>Dave Roberts. We'll dive deeper into this great pitching matchup.

0:01:28.330 --> 0:01:34.229
<v Speaker 2>David Vasay goes one-on-one with a familiar name, Kenley Jansen.

0:01:34.270 --> 0:01:34.530
<v Speaker 1>Yes.

0:01:34.950 --> 0:01:37.610
<v Speaker 2>Now the closer of the Detroit Tigers. We'll hear from

0:01:37.660 --> 0:01:39.660
<v Speaker 2>Kenley coming up in 45 minutes. We've got your Dodgers

0:01:39.700 --> 0:01:42.780
<v Speaker 2>magical moment. Charlie Steiner stops by shortly. We'll head down

0:01:42.819 --> 0:01:45.360
<v Speaker 2>to the field live with Kirsten Watson at Comerica Park.

0:01:45.660 --> 0:01:47.280
<v Speaker 2>And in just a few minutes, out to Steven Nelson

0:01:47.300 --> 0:01:50.060
<v Speaker 2>and Rick Monday in the Galpin Ford broadcast booth. Well,

0:01:50.080 --> 0:01:52.760
<v Speaker 2>yesterday in Atlanta, the Dodgers finished off a three-game series

0:01:52.780 --> 0:01:55.120
<v Speaker 2>with the Braves. They lost the first two games by

0:01:55.300 --> 0:01:58.410
<v Speaker 2>one run. And yesterday, we expected a great pitching matchup

0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:01.130
<v Speaker 2>and a duel it was between Yamamoto and Chris Sale.

0:02:01.490 --> 0:02:06.090
<v Speaker 2>Chris Sale was absolutely fantastic. A complete game shutout. He

0:02:06.130 --> 0:02:10.549
<v Speaker 2>scattered five hits along the way. Meanwhile, Yoshinobu Yamamoto got

0:02:10.570 --> 0:02:13.540
<v Speaker 2>into some early trouble. How early? How about the first

0:02:13.580 --> 0:02:14.220
<v Speaker 2>pitch he threw?

0:02:15.139 --> 0:02:19.540
<v Speaker 6>Yamamoto facing Drake Baldwin, who's leading off once again, but

0:02:19.580 --> 0:02:20.680
<v Speaker 6>this time as the catcher.

0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:23.859
<v Speaker 7>First pitch. He's in the air to.

0:02:23.820 --> 0:02:27.320
<v Speaker 6>Deep right field, hooking toward the chop house and into

0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:31.639
<v Speaker 6>the chop house. Drake Baldwin ambushes Yamamoto in the very

0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:38.790
<v Speaker 6>first pitch. He throws for a leadoff home run. An

0:02:38.910 --> 0:02:44.150
<v Speaker 6>absolute no-doubter from Baldwin and the Braves. Once again, take

0:02:44.190 --> 0:02:44.810
<v Speaker 6>the first lead.

0:02:45.530 --> 0:02:49.210
<v Speaker 2>Yamamoto hangs a splitter on the first pitch to Drake Baldwin,

0:02:49.230 --> 0:02:52.989
<v Speaker 2>who crushes at 402 feet into the right field chop

0:02:53.030 --> 0:02:56.720
<v Speaker 2>house there and Truist park after Yamamoto gave up the

0:02:56.780 --> 0:02:59.900
<v Speaker 2>home run though. He retired the next seven in a row.

0:03:00.139 --> 0:03:02.139
<v Speaker 2>He then retired 10 in a row before a two

0:03:02.220 --> 0:03:05.200
<v Speaker 2>out single in the six. His pitch count was getting up.

0:03:05.260 --> 0:03:08.260
<v Speaker 2>He was at 90 pitches through six. He went back

0:03:08.340 --> 0:03:11.380
<v Speaker 2>out for the seventh. He gave a ground ball out

0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:13.440
<v Speaker 2>for the first out of the seventh. But then a

0:03:13.540 --> 0:03:15.500
<v Speaker 2>single in the walk, you can see the fatigue. He

0:03:15.540 --> 0:03:17.660
<v Speaker 2>was losing a little bit of his command. So Dave

0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:20.790
<v Speaker 2>Roberts went to the bullpen. The Dodgers saw Yamamoto go

0:03:20.930 --> 0:03:24.950
<v Speaker 2>six in a third inning. Strikeout eight. He threw 105 pitches. Again,

0:03:24.990 --> 0:03:28.329
<v Speaker 2>he left with runners on first and second with one out.

0:03:28.490 --> 0:03:30.470
<v Speaker 2>And Jack Dreyer in to clean it up.

0:03:31.570 --> 0:03:35.590
<v Speaker 7>Dreyer closed stance on the mound. Delivers the 2-1. Line

0:03:35.650 --> 0:03:36.690
<v Speaker 7>right back to Dreyer.

0:03:36.730 --> 0:03:38.610
<v Speaker 2>Both runners are caught off their bags.

0:03:38.870 --> 0:03:41.590
<v Speaker 6>Dreyer throws to second for the double play.

0:03:44.660 --> 0:03:45.140
<v Speaker 3>Harris.

0:03:46.180 --> 0:03:49.420
<v Speaker 6>And Thomas both drifted off after the liner off the bat.

0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:52.830
<v Speaker 6>Yastrzemski right into the glove of Jack Dreyer. And that

0:03:52.970 --> 0:03:55.410
<v Speaker 6>is a double play to get through the seventh to

0:03:55.470 --> 0:03:56.850
<v Speaker 6>keep it a one-run game.

0:03:57.290 --> 0:04:00.460
<v Speaker 2>A huge defensive play from Jack Dreyer. Line drive rack

0:04:00.510 --> 0:04:03.540
<v Speaker 2>back at him from Yastrzemski. Turns around, fires a strike

0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:06.480
<v Speaker 2>to Mookie Betts, covering second to double up the runner.

0:04:06.880 --> 0:04:10.320
<v Speaker 2>A 1-6 double play to get out of the jam.

0:04:10.870 --> 0:04:13.830
<v Speaker 2>but unfortunately the Dodgers offense just couldn't do much against

0:04:13.910 --> 0:04:16.210
<v Speaker 2>Chris sale. They had a lead off double for Mookie

0:04:16.250 --> 0:04:19.350
<v Speaker 2>bets in the fourth. They stranded him there. They got

0:04:19.410 --> 0:04:21.490
<v Speaker 2>a hit from Freddie Freeman in the ninth. Couldn't do

0:04:21.529 --> 0:04:24.320
<v Speaker 2>anything with that either. The Dodgers had five hits total

0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:28.359
<v Speaker 2>in the game as Chris sale cruises to his first

0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:32.020
<v Speaker 2>career shutout since 2019, his fourth overall in his career.

0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:37.390
<v Speaker 2>as he was fantastic last night for the Braves in

0:04:37.430 --> 0:04:40.990
<v Speaker 2>a 1-0 defeat of the Dodgers as the Dodgers get

0:04:41.110 --> 0:04:46.909
<v Speaker 2>swept out of Atlanta for the first time since 2013. Yes,

0:04:47.210 --> 0:04:50.909
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers now 80-54 on this season. After a flight

0:04:50.950 --> 0:04:53.010
<v Speaker 2>to Detroit, they're right back at it to start a

0:04:53.070 --> 0:04:56.539
<v Speaker 2>weekend series against the Tigers, and it all lines up

0:04:56.570 --> 0:04:58.900
<v Speaker 2>for Terry Schubel to make his return to face his

0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:01.500
<v Speaker 2>former team at the former ballpark that he called home

0:05:01.540 --> 0:05:05.420
<v Speaker 2>last Comerico Park in Detroit. First pitch at 340. With more,

0:05:05.660 --> 0:05:07.580
<v Speaker 2>let's head out to the Galpin Ford broadcast booth as

0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:10.560
<v Speaker 2>we say good afternoon to Steven Nelson and Rick Monday, guys.

0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:13.660
<v Speaker 7>All right, here we go, TC, from the Motor City.

0:05:14.020 --> 0:05:18.120
<v Speaker 6>And it's Tarek Skubal's return to Motown, Rick Monday, as

0:05:18.180 --> 0:05:22.070
<v Speaker 6>the Dodgers kick off this three-game series against the Detroit Tigers.

0:05:22.890 --> 0:05:25.430
<v Speaker 6>And two things are happening at the same time. The

0:05:25.450 --> 0:05:29.929
<v Speaker 6>Dodgers are trying to wash away the pain of that sweep.

0:05:30.029 --> 0:05:31.930
<v Speaker 7>Three one-run losses to the Braves.

0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:34.620
<v Speaker 6>And then you also have the emotions of Scooble being

0:05:34.660 --> 0:05:36.940
<v Speaker 6>back in Detroit less than a month after he was traded.

0:05:36.980 --> 0:05:40.260
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, 26 days ago, to be exact. He came and

0:05:40.500 --> 0:05:43.289
<v Speaker 4>started to put on the Dodger uniform. I think there's

0:05:43.510 --> 0:05:47.510
<v Speaker 4>a whole lot of electricity, if you will, conversations, if

0:05:47.529 --> 0:05:50.110
<v Speaker 4>you will, also. But I think after that first inning

0:05:50.130 --> 0:05:52.530
<v Speaker 4>in particular, then it's going to come down. Scooble has

0:05:52.570 --> 0:05:56.540
<v Speaker 4>to maneuver his way through. So do the Tigers. Maneuver

0:05:56.560 --> 0:06:00.620
<v Speaker 4>the way through. Facing now a friend, a former teammate,

0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:03.080
<v Speaker 4>and put it into competition. And that's what it's going

0:06:03.100 --> 0:06:05.890
<v Speaker 4>to come down to. And now Scooble is on a

0:06:05.930 --> 0:06:09.029
<v Speaker 4>ball club that is attempting to get, first of all,

0:06:09.110 --> 0:06:12.320
<v Speaker 4>to a postseason. That seems to be pretty well wrapped up.

0:06:12.350 --> 0:06:14.490
<v Speaker 4>They start today eight games in front of the second-place

0:06:14.550 --> 0:06:17.230
<v Speaker 4>Padres in the Western Division. But more importantly, to get

0:06:17.270 --> 0:06:19.860
<v Speaker 4>to postseason play. And even more importantly than that, if

0:06:19.900 --> 0:06:22.640
<v Speaker 4>they succeed in postseason, they get back to the World

0:06:22.660 --> 0:06:24.800
<v Speaker 4>Series again. So, yeah, there's a lot of emotions here

0:06:24.820 --> 0:06:28.420
<v Speaker 4>and there. And wouldn't you like to be inside and

0:06:28.520 --> 0:06:31.900
<v Speaker 4>know what that emotion is being felt like with Scooble,

0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:34.220
<v Speaker 4>and especially when he takes the mound? Because I would

0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:36.400
<v Speaker 4>imagine in the bottom of the first inning when he

0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:39.599
<v Speaker 4>takes the mound, he is going to receive, and fittingly enough,

0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:41.720
<v Speaker 4>he's earned it, a standing ovation here.

0:06:41.900 --> 0:06:43.839
<v Speaker 7>Oh, one of the great Tigers all time.

0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:47.700
<v Speaker 6>And just a meteoric rise, really, and it's a journey

0:06:47.740 --> 0:06:50.000
<v Speaker 6>and story that we've talked about and you have to appreciate.

0:06:50.300 --> 0:06:51.920
<v Speaker 7>Well, we can talk about the emotions. I can tell

0:06:51.940 --> 0:06:52.180
<v Speaker 7>you this.

0:06:52.710 --> 0:06:55.430
<v Speaker 6>You know, peeking into the Dodger clubhouse before today's game,

0:06:56.010 --> 0:07:00.680
<v Speaker 6>it was, there was a silence. And not a solemn silence,

0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:04.539
<v Speaker 6>but a business-like one, Mo. This team realizes that, hey,

0:07:04.980 --> 0:07:08.260
<v Speaker 6>those three losses were really difficult against Atlanta. Now the

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:11.429
<v Speaker 6>lead for that second bye to avoid the wild card

0:07:11.490 --> 0:07:13.610
<v Speaker 6>round in the National League is down to one game.

0:07:13.730 --> 0:07:16.280
<v Speaker 6>They're three games behind the Brewers. for the top seed

0:07:16.360 --> 0:07:19.240
<v Speaker 6>in the National League. And so now, in an interleague matchup,

0:07:19.740 --> 0:07:23.500
<v Speaker 6>the bats trying to fire. It seems like that clubhouse

0:07:23.560 --> 0:07:24.660
<v Speaker 6>is aware of what's in front of them.

0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:26.820
<v Speaker 4>Well, this is more than just coming off of a

0:07:27.020 --> 0:07:29.940
<v Speaker 4>three-game sweep in Atlanta. This is more about since the

0:07:30.140 --> 0:07:33.420
<v Speaker 4>1st of July. The Dodgers are just a 500 team.

0:07:33.460 --> 0:07:36.790
<v Speaker 4>They're 24-24, and they need to kick it into gear

0:07:36.850 --> 0:07:39.070
<v Speaker 4>because it's not a light switch that you say, oh,

0:07:39.110 --> 0:07:41.230
<v Speaker 4>we're going to go to postseason tomorrow. Oh, let's go

0:07:41.250 --> 0:07:42.810
<v Speaker 4>over and turn on the light switch. No, the light

0:07:42.830 --> 0:07:45.900
<v Speaker 4>switch needs to be turned on right now. You know,

0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:48.000
<v Speaker 4>put the injuries aside. Okay, there's some guys that may

0:07:48.020 --> 0:07:50.940
<v Speaker 4>be coming back. They're getting healthier and healthier. The Dodgers

0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:53.230
<v Speaker 4>right now as a team have to get healthier on

0:07:53.250 --> 0:07:53.650
<v Speaker 4>the field.

0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:56.260
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, they did it last year. Doesn't mean you can

0:07:56.300 --> 0:07:58.520
<v Speaker 6>do it every year. Not in this sport, not in

0:07:58.560 --> 0:08:03.690
<v Speaker 6>this league. Tigers-Dodgers game one from Comerica Park. Tarek Skubal

0:08:03.990 --> 0:08:06.050
<v Speaker 6>and his return. We'll talk more about that matchup and

0:08:06.070 --> 0:08:07.670
<v Speaker 6>get a key from all a little bit later.

0:08:07.690 --> 0:08:07.890
<v Speaker 2>Tim?

0:08:08.150 --> 0:08:08.370
<v Speaker 8>All right.

0:08:08.390 --> 0:08:08.890
<v Speaker 7>Thank you, Nelly.

0:08:08.910 --> 0:08:10.370

<v Speaker 2>first pitch. I'm Tim Cates. This is the back-to-back World

<v Speaker 2>Series Champion Dodgers Audio Network.

0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:58.180
<v Speaker 1>This is Morongo Casino. Dodgers on deck. On your home

0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:00.240
<v Speaker 1>for L.A. Dodgers baseball.

0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:05.840
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers and Tigers as they square off this weekend in Detroit.

0:09:05.860 --> 0:09:09.380
<v Speaker 2>Tarek Skubal makes his return to Comerica Park. First pitch

0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:11.130
<v Speaker 2>coming up at 340.

0:09:11.130 --> 0:09:13.949
<v Speaker 1>This is the Otani Rewind.

0:09:14.070 --> 0:09:16.530
<v Speaker 2>Well, the Dodgers didn't have much offense last night against

0:09:16.590 --> 0:09:19.510
<v Speaker 2>Chris Sale. Mookie Betts had two of the Dodgers' five hits.

0:09:19.610 --> 0:09:21.930
<v Speaker 2>Freddie Freeman had a hit in the ninth inning. Miguel

0:09:21.970 --> 0:09:24.189
<v Speaker 2>Rojas had a hit. Ben Wartvett had a base hit.

0:09:24.210 --> 0:09:26.209
<v Speaker 2>That's it. Shoei Otani at the top of the lineup

0:09:26.570 --> 0:09:30.520
<v Speaker 2>was 0-4 with two strikeouts. His average has now dropped to.

0:09:30.450 --> 0:09:34.100
<v Speaker 2>285 on the season with a. 385. on base percentage.

0:09:34.130 --> 0:09:36.020
<v Speaker 2>The Dodgers didn't have a lot of offense, and they

0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:38.179
<v Speaker 2>lost to the Braves, and Chris Sale won it nothing.

0:09:38.620 --> 0:09:42.520
<v Speaker 1>This is Kirsten's Corner with Kirsten Watson.

0:09:42.840 --> 0:09:45.099

0:09:54.970 --> 0:09:58.480
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers put Atlanta behind them, Kirsten. Now in there in Detroit,

0:09:58.520 --> 0:10:01.600
<v Speaker 2>three games set and Tarek school bowl makes his return

0:10:01.640 --> 0:10:03.060
<v Speaker 2>against his former team.

0:10:03.590 --> 0:10:04.150
<v Speaker 6>It's going to be a.

0:10:04.120 --> 0:10:06.390
<v Speaker 9>Special day for a Tarek school ball. You know, it,

0:10:06.850 --> 0:10:09.209
<v Speaker 9>Everyone has been talking about what is it going to

0:10:09.250 --> 0:10:10.950
<v Speaker 9>be like for him? Are they going to be emotions?

0:10:11.010 --> 0:10:13.530
<v Speaker 9>He obviously started his career. He spent eight years with

0:10:13.550 --> 0:10:16.240
<v Speaker 9>the Tigers and has talked about how the guys in

0:10:16.270 --> 0:10:18.660
<v Speaker 9>that clubhouse, those are some of his best friends. And,

0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:21.559
<v Speaker 9>you know, but ultimately, as much as he does believe

0:10:21.620 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 9>that at some point the emotions might come in, it

0:10:24.900 --> 0:10:27.219
<v Speaker 9>ultimately is just baseball. And I think Dave Roberts is

0:10:27.240 --> 0:10:29.990
<v Speaker 9>something really powerful today that Yes, there's going to be

0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:33.530
<v Speaker 9>familiarity here, but to use to his advantage, he knows

0:10:33.590 --> 0:10:37.230
<v Speaker 9>this mound at Comerica Park probably better than anyone else.

0:10:37.290 --> 0:10:40.340
<v Speaker 9>So if anything, there might be a comfortability when he's

0:10:40.500 --> 0:10:43.020
<v Speaker 9>out there, which will be really nice. So it's definitely

0:10:43.040 --> 0:10:45.020
<v Speaker 9>going to be all eyes. It already is all eyes

0:10:45.140 --> 0:10:47.660
<v Speaker 9>on him. But I will say, I saw the cutest

0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:51.699
<v Speaker 9>fans today. And they had a Terrence Google Detroit tigers Jersey,

0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:53.780
<v Speaker 9>but at LA hat. And I was like, oh, so

0:10:53.820 --> 0:10:56.490
<v Speaker 9>you all are true school fans. And they were, they

0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:58.610
<v Speaker 9>had the biggest smile on their face. And they were like, yes,

0:10:58.660 --> 0:11:01.110
<v Speaker 9>we are. We can't wait. And I hope that that's

0:11:01.150 --> 0:11:03.010
<v Speaker 9>the reception that he received tonight.

0:11:03.250 --> 0:11:04.100
<v Speaker 7>No doubt about it.

0:11:04.250 --> 0:11:08.630
<v Speaker 2>Also all eyes were on show. Hey, Oh, Tony earlier today.

0:11:09.740 --> 0:11:10.020
<v Speaker 1>Yes.

0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:12.880
<v Speaker 9>So Dave Roberts had shared that before we got to Detroit,

0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:14.800
<v Speaker 9>the plan was going to be for him to throw

0:11:14.820 --> 0:11:18.130
<v Speaker 9>a bullpen today on Friday. And so he did just that.

0:11:18.170 --> 0:11:21.530
<v Speaker 9>He threw 20 pitches. So it technically was a short

0:11:21.670 --> 0:11:25.150
<v Speaker 9>curve bullpen. Typically he's in that 30 bull pitch mix,

0:11:25.270 --> 0:11:27.370
<v Speaker 9>but it seems like he came out of it. Well,

0:11:27.410 --> 0:11:30.210
<v Speaker 9>Dave Roberts was saying that we'll have more information this

0:11:30.429 --> 0:11:33.600
<v Speaker 9>evening after the game, once he sits and talks with Shohei,

0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:36.740
<v Speaker 9>as well as Mark Fryer. There is still, you know,

0:11:36.940 --> 0:11:40.360
<v Speaker 9>a potential plan that he could have to start on Sunday.

0:11:40.580 --> 0:11:42.760
<v Speaker 9>If he does that, it would be one inning. And

0:11:42.780 --> 0:11:45.339
<v Speaker 9>then we would see Tyler glass now come into the game.

0:11:46.110 --> 0:11:49.010
<v Speaker 9>If he does not decide to have that start on Sunday,

0:11:49.110 --> 0:11:51.709
<v Speaker 9>then Tyler glass. Now we'll just have the start outright,

0:11:51.770 --> 0:11:53.189
<v Speaker 9>like a normal game for him.

0:11:53.210 --> 0:11:53.270
<v Speaker 1>So.

0:11:54.070 --> 0:11:56.430
<v Speaker 9>You know, the hope is, though, that Shohei can get

0:11:56.490 --> 0:11:58.540
<v Speaker 9>out there because when you look at the calendar, there's

0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:01.920
<v Speaker 9>now less than 30 days left of the regular season.

0:12:01.960 --> 0:12:03.660
<v Speaker 9>And so they do want to find ways to make

0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:05.970
<v Speaker 9>sure that they're getting him at least enough outings to

0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:08.209
<v Speaker 9>get somewhat built up and in a good position to

0:12:08.250 --> 0:12:09.250
<v Speaker 9>be ready for October.

0:12:09.670 --> 0:12:12.730
<v Speaker 2>Did I spy Edwin Diaz also throwing earlier today at

0:12:12.750 --> 0:12:13.620
<v Speaker 2>Comerica park?

0:12:13.650 --> 0:12:27.209
<v Speaker 9>&lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt; &lt;HAL&gt;

0:12:27.210 --> 0:12:29.709
<v Speaker 9>Mark Pryor came back. I said, Mark, was it a

0:12:29.770 --> 0:12:31.300
<v Speaker 9>good day in the pen? It feels like it's been

0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:32.939
<v Speaker 9>a good day. And he looked at me and he said,

0:12:33.360 --> 0:12:35.600
<v Speaker 9>you know what? Yes, it is. It was a very

0:12:35.640 --> 0:12:37.580
<v Speaker 9>good day in the pen. So I'm going to take

0:12:37.600 --> 0:12:40.700
<v Speaker 9>that as a very positive sign, whether it's for Edwin,

0:12:40.740 --> 0:12:43.450
<v Speaker 9>for Shohei, and even Edwin said that. He's been working

0:12:43.470 --> 0:12:46.130
<v Speaker 9>through a few things mechanically, especially with that arm slot.

0:12:46.190 --> 0:12:48.170
<v Speaker 9>And Dave Roberts said that he came out of it

0:12:48.210 --> 0:12:50.689
<v Speaker 9>really well. When I talked to Edwin just very briefly,

0:12:50.730 --> 0:12:53.530
<v Speaker 9>when he came into the dugout earlier, he said he

0:12:53.570 --> 0:12:55.790
<v Speaker 9>felt really good and he had a smile on his face.

0:12:55.910 --> 0:12:58.690
<v Speaker 9>Even the bullpen catcher Hamlet was laughing. He was like,

0:12:58.710 --> 0:13:01.100
<v Speaker 9>my hand hurts. That's how good the stuff was today.

0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:04.300
<v Speaker 9>So he's working through a few things mechanically and getting

0:13:04.340 --> 0:13:07.459
<v Speaker 9>more comfortable with these changes. But Dave Roberts has made

0:13:07.480 --> 0:13:10.220
<v Speaker 9>it clear that for Edwin, he will be going out

0:13:10.340 --> 0:13:13.460
<v Speaker 9>on his rehab assignment, joining that OKC team just to

0:13:13.500 --> 0:13:17.660
<v Speaker 9>continue to make sure these mechanical changes he's making. He's

0:13:17.710 --> 0:13:20.069
<v Speaker 9>feeling confident on the mound with them. He's getting the

0:13:20.150 --> 0:13:22.270
<v Speaker 9>results with them. So he does want to make sure

0:13:22.290 --> 0:13:24.870
<v Speaker 9>he faces some batters before he makes his return to

0:13:24.890 --> 0:13:25.510
<v Speaker 9>the big league team.

0:13:25.820 --> 0:13:28.840
<v Speaker 2>Hopefully that is soon. He can come back stronger than ever. Kirsten,

0:13:28.860 --> 0:13:30.780
<v Speaker 2>we appreciate it. We will check in with you after

0:13:30.820 --> 0:13:32.780

0:14:55.020 --> 0:14:56.910
<v Speaker 10>Dave, can you just describe.

0:14:56.930 --> 0:14:58.650
<v Speaker 7>Dave, can you talk about the pressure?

0:14:58.670 --> 0:15:02.810
<v Speaker 1>In the dugout with Dave Roberts.

0:15:02.850 --> 0:15:05.640
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, I think that this is going to be a.

0:15:07.210 --> 0:15:09.390
<v Speaker 10>This will probably be the toughest one, I think, as

0:15:09.410 --> 0:15:12.820
<v Speaker 10>far as emotions Spent eight years here with these guys.

0:15:14.020 --> 0:15:16.880
<v Speaker 10>Some of his best friends are on this ball club still.

0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:21.640
<v Speaker 10>And he's going to get a great ovation from the fans.

0:15:22.540 --> 0:15:27.420
<v Speaker 10>They'll probably do something tomorrow on the big board. But

0:15:27.460 --> 0:15:31.020
<v Speaker 10>I do think that he'll be able to compartmentalize. But yeah,

0:15:31.340 --> 0:15:36.560
<v Speaker 10>warming up in the opposing bullpen, being in the opposite dugout, clubhouse,

0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:39.500
<v Speaker 10>all that stuff is going to be different. But again,

0:15:39.620 --> 0:15:44.710
<v Speaker 10>once the game starts, it's baseball. But I do think

0:15:44.750 --> 0:15:47.250
<v Speaker 10>he's trying to lock in a little bit more and

0:15:47.310 --> 0:15:51.270
<v Speaker 10>not let the noise distract him.

0:15:51.530 --> 0:15:54.590
<v Speaker 11>Your team comes into this series having, when you look

0:15:54.610 --> 0:15:56.730
<v Speaker 11>at what happened in Atlanta, each of those was a

0:15:56.850 --> 0:15:59.410
<v Speaker 11>one-run loss, but there still was a lot of positives.

0:15:59.490 --> 0:16:00.830
<v Speaker 11>What do you want to see from your group? What

0:16:00.850 --> 0:16:02.470
<v Speaker 11>do you want to see them carry over into this

0:16:02.490 --> 0:16:04.810
<v Speaker 11>series or improve on in this series specifically?

0:16:06.380 --> 0:16:06.470
<v Speaker 3>Um.

0:16:07.900 --> 0:16:12.820
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, I think that I thought we pitched well. I

0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:17.620
<v Speaker 10>thought we played good baseball. Obviously, we ran into a

0:16:17.660 --> 0:16:21.510
<v Speaker 10>buzzsaw last night with Sale. But I think for me,

0:16:21.550 --> 0:16:25.130
<v Speaker 10>it's just go out there and take good at-bats, tack

0:16:25.230 --> 0:16:29.630
<v Speaker 10>on when we can, situationally be good, have a plan.

0:16:29.810 --> 0:16:32.190
<v Speaker 10>And every time we get in there, have a plan, compete,

0:16:32.270 --> 0:16:33.890
<v Speaker 10>and let the talent take over.

0:16:34.500 --> 0:16:36.880
<v Speaker 6>You said yesterday you thought Tarek might have a little

0:16:36.940 --> 0:16:37.840
<v Speaker 6>extra fire today.

0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:40.260
<v Speaker 7>How do you think that's going to present itself.

0:16:40.160 --> 0:16:44.080
<v Speaker 12>In the actual stuff, just in his interactions with the

0:16:44.100 --> 0:16:46.729
<v Speaker 12>crowd and emotions coming off the mound?

0:16:46.760 --> 0:16:47.650
<v Speaker 8>What are you expecting there?

0:16:48.130 --> 0:16:52.190
<v Speaker 10>I don't see interactions with the crowd because he's focused

0:16:52.250 --> 0:16:55.990
<v Speaker 10>on making a start. I just think that it's going

0:16:56.010 --> 0:17:01.390
<v Speaker 10>to be a controlled sort of intensity. I've seen the excitement,

0:17:01.480 --> 0:17:05.270
<v Speaker 10>the adrenaline, and the first start with us. The first

0:17:05.310 --> 0:17:07.990
<v Speaker 10>home start, a little bit of the overthrow, lack of

0:17:08.030 --> 0:17:11.170
<v Speaker 10>fastball command. I think we're past that. So I think

0:17:11.230 --> 0:17:15.040
<v Speaker 10>those kind of have been markers to kind of prepare

0:17:15.080 --> 0:17:18.119
<v Speaker 10>him for this one. Yeah, but again, there's going to

0:17:18.140 --> 0:17:20.240
<v Speaker 10>be emotion, but I still think that he's going to

0:17:20.380 --> 0:17:25.340
<v Speaker 10>stay within himself. It's a familiar mound, familiar background, all

0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:27.300
<v Speaker 10>that stuff. So I think once he gets out there,

0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:28.160
<v Speaker 10>he's going to be back to.

0:17:28.119 --> 0:17:28.639
<v Speaker 4>Being who he is.

0:17:29.190 --> 0:17:31.650
<v Speaker 2>All right, there's manager Dave Roberts talking about Tarek Skubal

0:17:31.690 --> 0:17:34.330
<v Speaker 2>making his return to Detroit. When we continue here on

0:17:34.350 --> 0:17:36.550

<v Speaker 2>we lead you up to first pitch. I'm Tim Cates

<v Speaker 1>Joining Tim Cates on Dodgers on Deck.

0:18:20.420 --> 0:18:22.219
<v Speaker 3>I accept everybody for who they are.

0:18:22.260 --> 0:18:25.689
<v Speaker 1>This is Dodger Insider, David Bassett.

0:18:25.710 --> 0:18:28.429
<v Speaker 2>All right, DV, quick turnaround. Dodgers last night finished off

0:18:28.470 --> 0:18:30.990
<v Speaker 2>the series in Atlanta. It was a tough series, losing

0:18:31.010 --> 0:18:31.510
<v Speaker 2>all three.

0:18:32.690 --> 0:18:34.910
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, when you talk about a quick turnaround, the team

0:18:34.950 --> 0:18:38.379
<v Speaker 5>did not get to their hotel in Detroit until 2 a.m.

0:18:38.540 --> 0:18:41.619
<v Speaker 5>And really, when you look back at that series, the

0:18:41.680 --> 0:18:44.720
<v Speaker 5>Dodgers needed to win those first two games because it

0:18:44.740 --> 0:18:47.659
<v Speaker 5>was going to be tough. to score against Chris Sale

0:18:47.740 --> 0:18:50.760
<v Speaker 5>as it proved to be. And after the game, Mookie

0:18:50.800 --> 0:18:54.859
<v Speaker 5>Betts talked about the Dodgers being swept by another playoff team.

0:18:56.060 --> 0:18:58.840
<v Speaker 13>I mean, I'm sure you guys will write whatever you

0:18:58.880 --> 0:19:02.740
<v Speaker 13>want to write about it. But I remember last year

0:19:02.810 --> 0:19:06.690
<v Speaker 13>we got swept by a few different teams. We still

0:19:06.710 --> 0:19:08.730
<v Speaker 13>were able to win the World Series. So, I mean,

0:19:10.350 --> 0:19:11.930
<v Speaker 13>all the game will tell who wins.

0:19:13.530 --> 0:19:17.770
<v Speaker 5>So Mookie was echoing the sentiment of the Dodgers last

0:19:17.850 --> 0:19:21.760
<v Speaker 5>night in Atlanta, trying to downplay the significance of being

0:19:21.859 --> 0:19:25.379
<v Speaker 5>swept by the Braves. Because they were swept by the Braves, Tim,

0:19:25.600 --> 0:19:28.300
<v Speaker 5>they lose the season series. So if they end up

0:19:28.380 --> 0:19:31.520
<v Speaker 5>in a tie, the Braves would get the two seed. Also,

0:19:31.900 --> 0:19:34.850
<v Speaker 5>the fact is the Dodgers came into that series against

0:19:34.900 --> 0:19:38.910
<v Speaker 5>the Braves four games up for the number two seed.

0:19:38.970 --> 0:19:42.400
<v Speaker 5>They leave only one game up now. Although they do

0:19:42.440 --> 0:19:45.409
<v Speaker 5>have the second easiest schedule from here on out in

0:19:45.450 --> 0:19:48.389
<v Speaker 5>Major League Baseball, they could have made their lives a

0:19:48.450 --> 0:19:51.100
<v Speaker 5>lot easier if they would have just won two out

0:19:51.140 --> 0:19:54.399
<v Speaker 5>of three, maybe even just one game would have helped things,

0:19:54.500 --> 0:19:58.290
<v Speaker 5>but they're downplaying it, but that was a significant sweep.

0:19:58.810 --> 0:20:00.370
<v Speaker 2>David is brought to you by Ford Summer Sales Event.

0:20:00.390 --> 0:20:00.910
<v Speaker 7>Don't wait.

0:20:00.970 --> 0:20:02.780
<v Speaker 2>Hurry in now for the best offers of the year.

0:20:03.020 --> 0:20:05.520

<v Speaker 2>more information. Official vehicle of MLB. All right, Tarek, Scooble's

0:20:10.020 --> 0:20:12.820
<v Speaker 2>the big story, David, making his return to Comerica Park.

0:20:13.900 --> 0:20:15.859
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I saw Scooble out here about two and a

0:20:15.880 --> 0:20:18.649
<v Speaker 5>half hours ago. He came out to survey the field.

0:20:18.690 --> 0:20:22.710
<v Speaker 5>He saw some of his old teammates, rotation mates, throwing

0:20:22.790 --> 0:20:25.719
<v Speaker 5>out in the outfield and left field, and He yelled at.

0:20:25.700 --> 0:20:28.360
<v Speaker 3>Them and gave them the friendly salute.

0:20:28.500 --> 0:20:32.510
<v Speaker 5>So it seems like he's not really putting a lot

0:20:32.550 --> 0:20:35.110
<v Speaker 5>of pressure on himself right now.

0:20:35.530 --> 0:20:37.629
<v Speaker 3>Blake Snell told me yesterday.

0:20:37.190 --> 0:20:40.969
<v Speaker 5>He would expect Scooble to have butterflies and some nerves.

0:20:41.540 --> 0:20:44.379
<v Speaker 5>maybe up until the point where he steps out of

0:20:44.420 --> 0:20:47.369
<v Speaker 5>the dugout to take the mound, the Dodgers being the

0:20:47.420 --> 0:20:50.210
<v Speaker 5>road team will hit first. So he'll have those nerves

0:20:50.290 --> 0:20:52.210
<v Speaker 5>in the top of the first inning. So we'll see

0:20:52.650 --> 0:20:54.990
<v Speaker 5>how he settles in tonight, but it seems like he's

0:20:55.030 --> 0:20:57.330
<v Speaker 5>been handling it pretty well up to this point.

0:20:57.970 --> 0:20:58.190
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:20:58.250 --> 0:21:00.450
<v Speaker 12>I mean, the game of baseball is always going to

0:21:00.470 --> 0:21:02.510
<v Speaker 12>stay the game of baseball. You know, that's something that

0:21:02.570 --> 0:21:04.730
<v Speaker 12>I pride myself on is treating every game as if

0:21:04.840 --> 0:21:07.180
<v Speaker 12>it's the same, you know, but you know, it's just,

0:21:07.280 --> 0:21:09.379
<v Speaker 12>I'm very familiar obviously with the stadium and all the

0:21:09.420 --> 0:21:12.560
<v Speaker 12>guys across the way. Um, And I look forward to

0:21:12.580 --> 0:21:14.859
<v Speaker 12>seeing all those guys too. Some of those guys are

0:21:14.880 --> 0:21:16.790
<v Speaker 12>my really good friends, and we're going to have relationships

0:21:17.710 --> 0:21:20.250
<v Speaker 12>beyond baseball. So I look forward to getting back there

0:21:20.270 --> 0:21:21.660
<v Speaker 12>and pitching.

0:21:22.890 --> 0:21:25.520
<v Speaker 5>And that was Scooble with us yesterday in Atlanta. To

<v Speaker 2>this Friday afternoon from Detroit. I'm Tim Cates with the

<v Speaker 2>Dodgers and Tigers getting ready to start a three-game set

0:22:06.910 --> 0:22:10.520
<v Speaker 2>from Detroit. Terrence Kugel makes his return to Comerica Park.

0:22:10.560 --> 0:22:13.520
<v Speaker 2>First perch coming up at 340. Hot dogs here.

0:22:13.580 --> 0:22:14.679
<v Speaker 8>It's not a ball.

0:22:14.440 --> 0:22:17.100
<v Speaker 3>Game without a hot dog.

0:22:17.160 --> 0:22:20.560
<v Speaker 1>Who wants a hot dog? It's time for the Hoffie

0:22:20.640 --> 0:22:25.640
<v Speaker 1>magical moment. It's magical presented by Hoffie hot dogs.

0:22:25.859 --> 0:22:28.200
<v Speaker 2>Well, the Dodgers taken on the tigers. We go back

0:22:28.240 --> 0:22:33.690
<v Speaker 2>to last March, the opening homestand of the season in 2025,

0:22:33.690 --> 0:22:36.090
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers taken on the tigers. The Dodgers would go to

0:22:36.250 --> 0:22:38.689
<v Speaker 2>extra innings after Mookie bets tied the game in the

0:22:38.750 --> 0:22:41.270
<v Speaker 2>eighth inning with a solo home run. Then in the

0:22:41.350 --> 0:22:42.830
<v Speaker 2>10th Mookie walked them off.

0:22:43.270 --> 0:22:48.520
<v Speaker 6>The drama builds. For another 3-2, Mookie swings, high.

0:22:48.240 --> 0:22:51.620
<v Speaker 1>Fly ball, left field and deep, this ball's.

0:22:51.350 --> 0:22:53.050
<v Speaker 3>Back, this ball's.

0:22:54.210 --> 0:22:58.550
<v Speaker 1>Gone! Mookie, simply magic!

0:23:05.290 --> 0:23:09.209
<v Speaker 6>He rounds third, tosses his helmet to the sky, and

0:23:09.250 --> 0:23:12.330
<v Speaker 6>the Dodgers walk off winners!

0:23:14.090 --> 0:23:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Mookie Betts does it with the walk-off three-run home run

0:23:19.140 --> 0:23:22.740
<v Speaker 2>last March. That was the same night that everybody got

0:23:22.780 --> 0:23:27.270
<v Speaker 2>their World Series rings for the Los Angeles Dodgers. That

0:23:27.330 --> 0:23:29.729

0:24:18.730 --> 0:24:22.670
<v Speaker 2>We welcome in Charlie Steiner.

0:24:22.690 --> 0:24:26.159
<v Speaker 14>Tim, this is game 135, 28 games and 31 days

0:24:26.260 --> 0:24:30.960
<v Speaker 14>left in the regular season. And Tarek Scruble, the homecoming,

0:24:31.000 --> 0:24:33.420
<v Speaker 14>we'll be talking about that in a bit. But Mo,

0:24:33.440 --> 0:24:36.720
<v Speaker 14>let's look back at last night. We were talking about

0:24:36.760 --> 0:24:41.290
<v Speaker 14>it yesterday. Aces up, and they both brought their A

0:24:41.350 --> 0:24:45.480
<v Speaker 14>game together today. One pitch, the first of the game,

0:24:45.680 --> 0:24:49.379
<v Speaker 14>thrown by Yamamoto, the only run of the game, and

0:24:49.590 --> 0:24:52.230
<v Speaker 14>after that, really two artists at work.

0:24:52.330 --> 0:24:56.210
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I said actually in our pregame show, one of

0:24:56.230 --> 0:24:59.130
<v Speaker 4>the things I would not have wanted to be last

0:24:59.210 --> 0:25:02.540
<v Speaker 4>night was a hitter for either side. I mean, you

0:25:02.560 --> 0:25:04.540
<v Speaker 4>look at it. I mean, Sale goes to complete game

0:25:04.580 --> 0:25:07.760
<v Speaker 4>to shut out. Five hits struck out, eat 11. He

0:25:07.840 --> 0:25:09.980
<v Speaker 4>did hit a couple of batters in it for Yamamoto.

0:25:10.480 --> 0:25:13.619
<v Speaker 4>Went into the seventh inning. Again, he stretched it out.

0:25:14.080 --> 0:25:16.750
<v Speaker 4>One run, four hits. It was the very first pitch

0:25:16.790 --> 0:25:18.510
<v Speaker 4>that he threw in the ballgame was the home run.

0:25:18.550 --> 0:25:21.030
<v Speaker 4>That was the difference in the game. So, yeah, indeed,

0:25:21.130 --> 0:25:22.869
<v Speaker 4>what you did not want to be was a hitter.

0:25:22.930 --> 0:25:25.909
<v Speaker 4>What you wanted to be was a spectator and watch

0:25:25.990 --> 0:25:30.449
<v Speaker 4>a very good baseball game last night. Unfortunately for Dodger fans,

0:25:30.869 --> 0:25:31.930
<v Speaker 4>they were on the losing end.

0:25:31.890 --> 0:25:32.129
<v Speaker 1>Of it, 1-0.

0:25:32.970 --> 0:25:36.899
<v Speaker 14>There was postseason drama, you know, a month before the

0:25:36.960 --> 0:25:39.600
<v Speaker 14>postseason in that game last night.

0:25:39.700 --> 0:25:41.119
<v Speaker 7>Obviously, the Dodgers.

0:25:41.220 --> 0:25:42.080
<v Speaker 8>Wanted to win.

0:25:42.780 --> 0:25:45.240
<v Speaker 14>Certainly would have been a whole lot bitter if they did.

0:25:45.730 --> 0:25:49.189
<v Speaker 14>And so now they find themselves in a bit of

0:25:49.270 --> 0:25:49.709
<v Speaker 14>a pickle.

0:25:50.290 --> 0:25:50.510
<v Speaker 4>They.

0:25:51.150 --> 0:25:54.780
<v Speaker 14>The Brewers and the Braves. The Brewers lead the Dodgers

0:25:54.880 --> 0:25:58.979
<v Speaker 14>by three. The Braves are just a game behind the Dodgers. And,

0:25:59.020 --> 0:26:02.460
<v Speaker 14>of course, one of those three will have to play

0:26:02.740 --> 0:26:06.240
<v Speaker 14>in the best-of-three wild card. And so these games down

0:26:06.300 --> 0:26:09.810
<v Speaker 14>the stretch are increasingly important for the Dodgers.

0:26:09.970 --> 0:26:12.550
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and Charlie, the Dodgers have an issue now from

0:26:12.590 --> 0:26:15.950
<v Speaker 4>an offensive standpoint, and that issue is, okay, occasionally they're

0:26:15.970 --> 0:26:18.560
<v Speaker 4>getting some runners on base, an exclusion of last night.

0:26:18.710 --> 0:26:22.660
<v Speaker 4>Even though they left seven runners on base, in fact,

0:26:22.740 --> 0:26:26.320
<v Speaker 4>only two innings did they not get a runner on

0:26:26.359 --> 0:26:29.720
<v Speaker 4>base in last night's ballgame. But here's the deal. They're

0:26:29.740 --> 0:26:32.310
<v Speaker 4>getting them on, but they're not getting them in. I mean,

0:26:32.350 --> 0:26:35.670
<v Speaker 4>they had 26 at-bats in a three-game series with runners

0:26:35.710 --> 0:26:39.540
<v Speaker 4>in scoring positions. More opportunities than what the Atlanta Braves had,

0:26:39.580 --> 0:26:41.659
<v Speaker 4>but the Braves came up with timely hits. That's not

0:26:41.700 --> 0:26:44.310
<v Speaker 4>happening right now, at least for the Dodger Ball Club.

0:26:44.330 --> 0:26:47.750
<v Speaker 4>They've got to try and readjust some things and talk

0:26:47.790 --> 0:26:50.470
<v Speaker 4>about readjustments. Well, it's going to be Alec Thomas in

0:26:50.510 --> 0:26:54.060
<v Speaker 4>center field again tonight. Oscar Hernandez moved down to the

0:26:54.119 --> 0:26:56.639
<v Speaker 4>number eight spot. He's in left field, but the question

0:26:56.660 --> 0:26:58.939
<v Speaker 4>is going to be, can they get on base? And

0:26:59.040 --> 0:27:01.260
<v Speaker 4>once they do, then what's the next step?

0:27:01.570 --> 0:27:03.890
<v Speaker 14>You know, we've been talking about the inability to get

0:27:03.930 --> 0:27:04.930
<v Speaker 14>those clutch hits.

0:27:05.369 --> 0:27:07.690
<v Speaker 7>The Dodgers, since the All-Star.

0:27:07.210 --> 0:27:10.949
<v Speaker 14>Break, are 19 and 18. By way of comparison, Tigers

0:27:11.010 --> 0:27:13.830
<v Speaker 14>are 18 and 19. But the point is, the Dodgers,

0:27:14.090 --> 0:27:19.030
<v Speaker 14>in those 37 games, they've had nine one-run losses. And

0:27:19.050 --> 0:27:21.990
<v Speaker 14>the only team with more one-run losses since that period

0:27:22.030 --> 0:27:25.889
<v Speaker 14>of time? The Giants. So the Dodgers, in these one-run games,

0:27:26.550 --> 0:27:29.060
<v Speaker 14>they're excruciatingly frustrating.

0:27:29.180 --> 0:27:32.020
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, absolutely. I mean, you can talk about, well, they're

0:27:32.060 --> 0:27:34.470
<v Speaker 4>on a pace to accomplish this or that as far

0:27:34.510 --> 0:27:37.150
<v Speaker 4>as the number of victories, but the numbers are already

0:27:37.230 --> 0:27:39.430
<v Speaker 4>in the book, and they're written in ink, not in pencil.

0:27:39.930 --> 0:27:42.669
<v Speaker 4>Since the 1st of July, this Dodger Ball Club is

0:27:42.730 --> 0:27:47.760
<v Speaker 4>a 500 team. They've won 24, and they've lost 24.

0:27:47.760 --> 0:27:49.060
<v Speaker 1>And now they're.

0:27:48.900 --> 0:27:50.200
<v Speaker 14>Going to be scoreboard watching.

0:27:50.220 --> 0:27:52.550
<v Speaker 1>The Braves... We'll.

0:27:52.410 --> 0:27:57.620
<v Speaker 14>Be hosting the Rockies tonight. They should have a fairly

0:27:58.220 --> 0:28:03.040
<v Speaker 14>good weekend against some cupcakes. The Brewers, with Logan Henderson,

0:28:03.840 --> 0:28:07.590
<v Speaker 14>will be hosting the Rangers. And the Dodgers, of course, now.

0:28:08.090 --> 0:28:09.210
<v Speaker 3>Three in Detroit.

0:28:09.690 --> 0:28:13.310
<v Speaker 14>Which takes us to the return of Tarek Skubal. What's

0:28:13.369 --> 0:28:16.429
<v Speaker 14>the mood and vibe in and around the ballpark, in

0:28:16.450 --> 0:28:19.450
<v Speaker 14>and around the city, as the Dodgers and Tigers get

0:28:19.520 --> 0:28:19.960
<v Speaker 14>ready to play?

0:28:19.980 --> 0:28:21.879
<v Speaker 4>Well, I get a sense this is a big deal

0:28:21.920 --> 0:28:25.600
<v Speaker 4>here locally. You know, it was 26 days ago that

0:28:25.619 --> 0:28:29.200
<v Speaker 4>Skubal was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Well, it

0:28:29.240 --> 0:28:32.109
<v Speaker 4>left an impact here in a lot of different ways.

0:28:32.210 --> 0:28:36.650
<v Speaker 4>First of all, Skubal... trades uniforms, and that's a big

0:28:36.690 --> 0:28:39.340
<v Speaker 4>loss for the Tiger fans. They're trying to win their

0:28:39.500 --> 0:28:41.860
<v Speaker 4>63rd game of the season. Tigers are a very young

0:28:41.900 --> 0:28:43.580
<v Speaker 4>ball club. You look at the starting lineup that they

0:28:43.600 --> 0:28:45.820
<v Speaker 4>have in there tonight. I thought it was interesting that

0:28:45.900 --> 0:28:48.480
<v Speaker 4>one of the things that Scooble took with him was

0:28:48.600 --> 0:28:53.100
<v Speaker 4>an espresso machine, a very high-quality espresso machine that he

0:28:53.160 --> 0:28:56.660
<v Speaker 4>bought himself, moved into the locker room, and they said, well,

0:28:56.700 --> 0:29:00.280
<v Speaker 4>now we're missing the espresso machine. And it was A.J. Hinch,

0:29:00.340 --> 0:29:03.260
<v Speaker 4>the manager of the Detroit Tigers, said, hey, we're missing

0:29:03.300 --> 0:29:07.020
<v Speaker 4>more than the espresso machine. We're missing that fastball and

0:29:07.080 --> 0:29:09.840
<v Speaker 4>changeup combination also from the left-handers. It's going to be

0:29:09.860 --> 0:29:12.300
<v Speaker 4>an interesting night. And I would imagine when he takes

0:29:12.360 --> 0:29:15.600
<v Speaker 4>the mound tonight, he will receive a standing ovation and

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:16.800
<v Speaker 4>for very good reason.

0:29:17.200 --> 0:29:22.510
<v Speaker 14>You know, Skrubel has pitched in six playoff starts for

0:29:22.570 --> 0:29:25.500
<v Speaker 14>the Tigers. And in those six games, he's got a.

0:29:25.410 --> 0:29:32.270
<v Speaker 14>204 ERA and 56 strikeouts. And that's the guy that

0:29:32.290 --> 0:29:37.540
<v Speaker 14>the Dodgers want and need in the rotation, into the postseason,

0:29:37.700 --> 0:29:42.640
<v Speaker 14>and tonight, a big game against his alma mater. Drew Anderson,

0:29:42.680 --> 0:29:45.340
<v Speaker 14>a right-hander, four up, five down, an ERA of a

0:29:45.420 --> 0:29:49.660
<v Speaker 14>shade over four, going for the Motor City Kitties. Lineups

0:29:49.720 --> 0:29:51.380
<v Speaker 14>and first pitch coming up, Tim.

0:29:52.030 --> 0:29:52.400
<v Speaker 1>All right.

0:29:52.450 --> 0:29:54.709

0:30:01.970 --> 0:30:04.110
<v Speaker 2>to dive deeper into this pitchy matchup with Terry Scouble

0:30:04.130 --> 0:30:08.340
<v Speaker 2>making his return to Comerica Park. But up next, Kenley Jansen,

0:30:08.380 --> 0:30:11.800
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers all-time saves leader. He is creeping in on

0:30:11.840 --> 0:30:14.280
<v Speaker 2>a milestone as well in his career. He's now with

0:30:14.320 --> 0:30:17.460
<v Speaker 2>Detroit closing out games for the Tigers. David Vasse goes

0:30:17.540 --> 0:30:19.900

<v Speaker 2>It's the Dodgers and the Tigers.

0:30:38.880 --> 0:30:39.350
<v Speaker 1>Oh, my.

0:30:39.590 --> 0:30:42.450
<v Speaker 2>Terry Schubel, Drew Anderson, the pitching matchup. First pitch from

<v Speaker 2>it's group night at Shakey's.com.

0:30:54.700 --> 0:30:58.500
<v Speaker 1>And now what will likely be Vasse fielding insults from

0:30:58.540 --> 0:30:59.340
<v Speaker 1>a Dodger player.

0:30:59.560 --> 0:31:00.700
<v Speaker 2>It's an engagement of endearment.

0:31:00.760 --> 0:31:02.680
<v Speaker 1>This is high and tight.

0:31:03.090 --> 0:31:06.150
<v Speaker 5>Well, there's a lot of storylines with the Dodgers being

0:31:06.190 --> 0:31:09.910
<v Speaker 5>back in Detroit. Obviously, tonight, Tarek Skubal starting for the

0:31:09.970 --> 0:31:14.350
<v Speaker 5>Dodgers back against the Tigers. But the guy that, number one,

0:31:14.410 --> 0:31:16.490
<v Speaker 5>is in my heart is a guy that is the

0:31:16.670 --> 0:31:20.510
<v Speaker 5>all-time saves leader in Dodger franchise history.

0:31:20.510 --> 0:31:21.410
<v Speaker 3>350 saves in.

0:31:21.630 --> 0:31:24.610
<v Speaker 5>His Dodger career, 493 and counting in his future Hall

0:31:24.830 --> 0:31:33.810
<v Speaker 5>of Fame career. And that's the one and only, bright lights,

0:31:33.930 --> 0:31:37.770
<v Speaker 5>California love, turn on them lights, Kenley Jansen.

0:31:38.190 --> 0:31:38.890
<v Speaker 3>Great to see you.

0:31:38.990 --> 0:31:41.850
<v Speaker 5>And I don't usually make trips to Detroit, Kenley, but

0:31:41.910 --> 0:31:44.370
<v Speaker 5>for you, I said I'll come to Detroit this time.

0:31:44.650 --> 0:31:46.690
<v Speaker 8>Well, I told everybody I love you, man. Right on there.

0:31:46.810 --> 0:31:49.690
<v Speaker 8>You know, thanks for coming. Thanks for having me. You know,

0:31:49.710 --> 0:31:51.800
<v Speaker 8>great to see old faces, man. It's awesome.

0:31:52.170 --> 0:31:54.840
<v Speaker 5>It was great to see Mookie Betts and Kike Hernandez

0:31:54.900 --> 0:31:58.320
<v Speaker 5>and Travis Smith and Dino Ebel. They all wanted to

0:31:58.700 --> 0:32:00.360
<v Speaker 5>come say hi and give you a big hug.

0:32:00.400 --> 0:32:03.440
<v Speaker 3>How much... Did that make you feel like old times?

0:32:03.840 --> 0:32:06.860
<v Speaker 15>You know, like that's... Those are the people that I'll

0:32:06.880 --> 0:32:09.200
<v Speaker 15>be the longest in my life, in my career with,

0:32:09.280 --> 0:32:11.140
<v Speaker 15>you know, so it's always feel family.

0:32:11.380 --> 0:32:13.620
<v Speaker 8>You know, this organization always will feel family to me.

0:32:13.640 --> 0:32:16.850
<v Speaker 15>No matter where I end, you know, and how many

0:32:16.870 --> 0:32:19.590
<v Speaker 15>more years I play, you know, the Dodgers will always be,

0:32:19.730 --> 0:32:22.410
<v Speaker 15>you know, my number one team. That's where I spend

0:32:22.430 --> 0:32:24.530
<v Speaker 15>the most time. That's the team who signed me as

0:32:24.570 --> 0:32:27.890
<v Speaker 15>a free agent as a kid, you know, and, you know.

0:32:27.970 --> 0:32:28.350
<v Speaker 8>That's where.

0:32:29.890 --> 0:32:32.710
<v Speaker 15>My whole, most of my legacy is. So, you know,

0:32:32.800 --> 0:32:35.900
<v Speaker 15>I will never take that for granted. You know, I

0:32:35.960 --> 0:32:37.260
<v Speaker 15>always have a special place in my heart.

0:32:37.600 --> 0:32:42.340
<v Speaker 5>Kenley Jansen saved more Clayton Kershaw wins than anybody in

0:32:42.380 --> 0:32:45.370
<v Speaker 5>his 18 year career. Is it hard to believe that

0:32:45.410 --> 0:32:47.950
<v Speaker 5>you're still going and Kershaw now is retired?

0:32:47.970 --> 0:32:51.210
<v Speaker 15>That's crazy, man, because my second year in the Gulf Coast,

0:32:52.110 --> 0:32:55.230
<v Speaker 15>you know, I catch Kershaw his first game ever, you know,

0:32:55.330 --> 0:32:59.170
<v Speaker 15>as a professional baseball player, you know, and Now he's

0:32:59.550 --> 0:33:03.980
<v Speaker 15>doing interviews and being broadcast.

0:33:04.900 --> 0:33:05.720
<v Speaker 8>It's good for him, man.

0:33:05.760 --> 0:33:09.360
<v Speaker 15>Good for him that he has such a legacy career.

0:33:09.380 --> 0:33:15.510
<v Speaker 15>Three rings for the Dodgers. It's unbelievable, man. It's unbelievable

0:33:15.690 --> 0:33:18.680
<v Speaker 15>seeing that and being a part of that with him.

0:33:18.990 --> 0:33:23.770
<v Speaker 15>Now he's enjoying his time with his family, raising his kids.

0:33:23.810 --> 0:33:25.050
<v Speaker 8>That's awesome. That's what it is about.

0:33:25.270 --> 0:33:27.450
<v Speaker 5>You know on social media they show that when you

0:33:27.470 --> 0:33:30.970
<v Speaker 5>were catching him. Do you remember that moment, that day?

0:33:31.630 --> 0:33:33.260
<v Speaker 8>Of course I remember him because he crushed me up.

0:33:34.140 --> 0:33:37.520
<v Speaker 15>I met him first. I met him first. I asked

0:33:37.540 --> 0:33:39.360
<v Speaker 15>for a curveball. He threw a fastball and it smoked

0:33:39.380 --> 0:33:42.340
<v Speaker 15>me in my leg. So of course I remember that, yeah.

0:33:42.680 --> 0:33:43.580
<v Speaker 15>You can ask him that too.

0:33:44.560 --> 0:33:45.740
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you still got the scar.

0:33:46.560 --> 0:33:49.380
<v Speaker 8>Probably, yeah. You know, I still remember how bad it hurt, so.

0:33:49.980 --> 0:33:50.740
<v Speaker 8>that's a 97, 98 Kirsch.

0:33:50.800 --> 0:33:50.940
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

0:33:50.960 --> 0:33:52.200
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, yeah.

0:33:52.540 --> 0:33:55.860
<v Speaker 5>Hey, number one, when you say Kenley Jansen, you think

0:33:55.920 --> 0:33:58.320
<v Speaker 5>about the big heart that you have, but you also

0:33:58.360 --> 0:34:01.640
<v Speaker 5>think about your signature pitch, the cut fastball. We still

0:34:01.680 --> 0:34:02.770
<v Speaker 5>got the cut fastball?

0:34:03.230 --> 0:34:06.530
<v Speaker 15>Yeah, it's still in the working. It's still, you know,

0:34:07.490 --> 0:34:10.049
<v Speaker 15>helping me do my job and, you know, do great things. So,

0:34:10.070 --> 0:34:11.469
<v Speaker 15>for sure.

0:34:11.890 --> 0:34:13.850
<v Speaker 5>How have you been able to keep the love for

0:34:13.890 --> 0:34:17.070
<v Speaker 5>the game, even after leaving the Dodgers, pitching for a

0:34:17.110 --> 0:34:19.719
<v Speaker 5>few different teams? How have you get that love for

0:34:19.739 --> 0:34:20.120
<v Speaker 5>the game?

0:34:20.940 --> 0:34:25.390
<v Speaker 15>I mean, you know, this is what I love. I

0:34:25.430 --> 0:34:28.870
<v Speaker 15>grew up as a kid loving baseball and I understand

0:34:28.910 --> 0:34:33.830
<v Speaker 15>it's a game of business and sometimes you don't be

0:34:33.890 --> 0:34:36.549
<v Speaker 15>with one team. It's hard for you don't see that

0:34:36.590 --> 0:34:39.299
<v Speaker 15>a lot no more. It's very rarely you see one

0:34:39.340 --> 0:34:43.160
<v Speaker 15>player be with one team. I have a great time

0:34:43.820 --> 0:34:46.620
<v Speaker 15>with the Dodgers and I can remember all the great memories,

0:34:46.940 --> 0:34:50.469
<v Speaker 15>but Of course, I still want to be in that

0:34:50.510 --> 0:34:53.950
<v Speaker 15>competitive side and compete and be out there and help

0:34:53.969 --> 0:34:57.430
<v Speaker 15>my team win. I'm going to try to do it

0:34:57.469 --> 0:34:59.570
<v Speaker 15>as long as I can because once I stop, I

0:34:59.930 --> 0:35:01.630
<v Speaker 15>don't want to be the guy that regrets that I've

0:35:01.670 --> 0:35:04.029
<v Speaker 15>got to go a few more years.

0:35:04.090 --> 0:35:05.950
<v Speaker 8>The time will tell me when to stop. Then I

0:35:08.160 --> 0:35:10.040
<v Speaker 8>go home and enjoy my time with my family.

0:35:10.780 --> 0:35:11.859
<v Speaker 3>One day in Cooperstown.

0:35:12.350 --> 0:35:15.390
<v Speaker 5>For Kenley Jansen, who certainly is on his way to

0:35:15.430 --> 0:35:18.550
<v Speaker 5>the Hall of Fame, nearing 500 saves in his career.

0:35:18.969 --> 0:35:20.819
<v Speaker 5>I never asked you this before, so you got your

0:35:20.860 --> 0:35:23.339
<v Speaker 5>glove in your hand. Is that the same glove that

0:35:23.400 --> 0:35:25.100
<v Speaker 5>you used when you pitched for the Dodgers?

0:35:25.140 --> 0:35:27.100
<v Speaker 8>No, no, no.

0:35:27.440 --> 0:35:30.459
<v Speaker 15>Once I stopped with the Dodgers, I stopped with that glove.

0:35:30.500 --> 0:35:32.700
<v Speaker 15>I started with the new gloves. So that glove is

0:35:32.760 --> 0:35:36.790
<v Speaker 15>in my trophy rooms and all this stuff. So, yeah,

0:35:36.850 --> 0:35:38.170
<v Speaker 15>it's definitely a different glove now.

0:35:38.530 --> 0:35:41.489
<v Speaker 5>Okay, what about the entrance song from the bullpen in

0:35:41.510 --> 0:35:42.810
<v Speaker 5>the ninth inning in Detroit?

0:35:43.969 --> 0:35:49.930
<v Speaker 15>I'm definitely having in the stones by Urban Fire, but, yeah,

0:35:50.030 --> 0:35:50.810
<v Speaker 15>it's just different.

0:35:51.190 --> 0:35:55.730
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I think whenever we hear California love at Dodger Stadium,

0:35:56.150 --> 0:35:59.430
<v Speaker 5>everybody remembers Kenley Jansen coming through those gates.

0:35:59.750 --> 0:36:03.050
<v Speaker 15>Yeah, I mean, you know, like I say, I was

0:36:03.090 --> 0:36:05.390
<v Speaker 15>lucky enough to do it the longest over there and

0:36:05.660 --> 0:36:06.540
<v Speaker 15>the most consistent.

0:36:08.930 --> 0:36:09.810
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, man, it's awesome.

0:36:10.150 --> 0:36:12.799
<v Speaker 15>All I can say is it was awesome being there

0:36:12.940 --> 0:36:13.719
<v Speaker 15>and wearing that uniform.

0:36:14.100 --> 0:36:16.480
<v Speaker 5>One day I'll be in Cooperstown. I've never been there before,

0:36:16.820 --> 0:36:18.820
<v Speaker 5>but I'll make two trips for 22 and 74.

0:36:18.810 --> 0:36:20.149
<v Speaker 3>Thanks a lot, Kenley.

0:36:22.320 --> 0:36:22.620
<v Speaker 7>Thank you.

0:36:22.800 --> 0:36:23.569

0:36:26.850 --> 0:36:28.350
<v Speaker 3>it back to you in the studio, Tim. All right.

<v Speaker 2>Leading up to Dodgers and Tigers getting closer to first pitch.

0:38:58.100 --> 0:39:01.370
<v Speaker 2>Terrence Scoble, Drew Anderson, the pitching matchup. First pitch set

0:39:01.510 --> 0:39:02.950
<v Speaker 2>for 340 as we get you ready for the start

0:39:02.969 --> 0:39:06.009
<v Speaker 2>of the game with the Sapporo starts. Great moment. Start

0:39:06.030 --> 0:39:08.839
<v Speaker 2>with Sapporo beer, whatever your taste preference. Sapporo has you

0:39:08.860 --> 0:39:11.320

0:39:11.360 --> 0:39:16.140
<v Speaker 2>light and non-alcoholic beer. Sapporo good with sushi, great with baseball.

0:39:16.180 --> 0:39:18.399
<v Speaker 2>Back out to the booth one final time before first pitch.

0:39:18.760 --> 0:39:21.299
<v Speaker 2>Stephen Nelson, Rick Monday, guys. Appreciate it, TC.

0:39:21.340 --> 0:39:25.109
<v Speaker 6>First pitch coming up here from Comerica Park. Tarek Skubal

0:39:25.290 --> 0:39:27.450
<v Speaker 6>not throwing the first pitch because he does not pitch

0:39:27.469 --> 0:39:30.150
<v Speaker 6>for the home team anymore. It's Drew Anderson going for

0:39:30.170 --> 0:39:34.390
<v Speaker 6>the Tigers and Tarek Skubal going for the Dodgers. 26

0:39:34.390 --> 0:39:37.310
<v Speaker 6>days after he was dealt from Detroit to the Dodgers,

0:39:37.750 --> 0:39:41.050
<v Speaker 6>he returns to the Motor City. Key for this series opener.

0:39:41.739 --> 0:39:42.339
<v Speaker 7>Is what, Rick?

0:39:42.360 --> 0:39:45.760
<v Speaker 4>Well, I think for Scooble, you know, he's a veteran.

0:39:45.800 --> 0:39:48.279
<v Speaker 4>He understands it. And he's in the upper echelon. But

0:39:48.320 --> 0:39:50.920
<v Speaker 4>I think this is about controlling emotions to begin with.

0:39:51.180 --> 0:39:53.160
<v Speaker 4>The pitching is going to be there. The ability is there.

0:39:53.219 --> 0:39:56.219
<v Speaker 4>That's not an issue. Controlling emotions on the front end

0:39:56.280 --> 0:39:57.549
<v Speaker 4>of it, I think, could be able to handle it.

0:39:58.510 --> 0:40:02.470
<v Speaker 4>I thought the comment really of the day came from A.J. Hinch,

0:40:02.510 --> 0:40:05.370
<v Speaker 4>the manager of the Detroit Tigers, when asked about Scooble.

0:40:05.800 --> 0:40:10.140
<v Speaker 4>Because Scooble evidently had purchased a very high-end espresso machine.

0:40:10.280 --> 0:40:10.500
<v Speaker 14>Yep.

0:40:10.600 --> 0:40:12.759
<v Speaker 4>And he put it into the locker room at the

0:40:12.780 --> 0:40:15.770
<v Speaker 4>Detroit Tigers. Well, 26 days ago, not only Scooble left,

0:40:15.790 --> 0:40:18.870
<v Speaker 4>but also the espresso machine. And Hinch was asked about it.

0:40:18.870 --> 0:40:21.170
<v Speaker 4>He goes, hey, we lost more than the espresso machine.

0:40:21.550 --> 0:40:25.009
<v Speaker 4>We also lost that fastball and change-up combination. So they

0:40:25.050 --> 0:40:27.589
<v Speaker 4>can replace the espresso machine. I don't know how they're

0:40:27.610 --> 0:40:29.759
<v Speaker 4>going to handle the fastball and the change-up today.

0:40:29.820 --> 0:40:31.739
<v Speaker 7>Mo, really quickly before we send it back to Tim.

0:40:32.650 --> 0:40:35.489
<v Speaker 6>Those Detroit Tiger hitters I mean all the focus is

0:40:35.570 --> 0:40:38.420
<v Speaker 6>on Tarek Skubal and understandably so and what he may

0:40:38.480 --> 0:40:41.660
<v Speaker 6>do but I you got to believe his old teammates

0:40:41.739 --> 0:40:43.700
<v Speaker 6>and his buddies in there they're trying to take him

0:40:43.739 --> 0:40:45.870
<v Speaker 6>bridge today or take him all over Comerica.

0:40:45.489 --> 0:40:48.910
<v Speaker 4>Park with these big gaps yeah but again you have

0:40:48.930 --> 0:40:50.730
<v Speaker 4>to turn that switch off when you come to home

0:40:50.750 --> 0:40:52.509
<v Speaker 4>plate as a hitter just like this Skubal's gonna have

0:40:52.550 --> 0:40:54.170
<v Speaker 4>to turn the switch off when he takes the mound

0:40:54.700 --> 0:40:57.460
<v Speaker 4>yeah you have an idea but He may be your buddy.

0:40:57.660 --> 0:40:59.799
<v Speaker 4>He may be your former teammate. But right now, he's

0:40:59.840 --> 0:41:01.509
<v Speaker 4>a competitor. When he grabbed that lumber and go to

0:41:01.550 --> 0:41:02.410
<v Speaker 4>home plate, good luck.

0:41:02.610 --> 0:41:06.410
<v Speaker 6>I know it's not a big-time National League showdown. This

0:41:06.489 --> 0:41:08.610
<v Speaker 6>is an interleague series, Tim. But the Dodgers need to

0:41:08.630 --> 0:41:10.609
<v Speaker 6>stack wins. They got to get to a certain number

0:41:10.650 --> 0:41:11.529
<v Speaker 6>to avoid.

0:41:11.210 --> 0:41:12.330
<v Speaker 7>That wild card round.

0:41:12.690 --> 0:41:15.070
<v Speaker 6>And they're a 500 team since the beginning of July.

0:41:15.110 --> 0:41:19.310
<v Speaker 6>They're below 500. Three games under 500 in their last 25.

0:41:19.310 --> 0:41:22.010
<v Speaker 6>But let's see if they can put a new series

0:41:22.230 --> 0:41:25.330
<v Speaker 6>in front of them. The Tigers and Dodgers get going shortly.

0:41:25.989 --> 0:41:28.540
<v Speaker 2>All right, Tarek Skubal making his fifth start in a

0:41:28.580 --> 0:41:33.279
<v Speaker 2>Dodger uniform. He's 1-2 with a. 338 ERA, but coming

0:41:33.300 --> 0:41:35.319
<v Speaker 2>off a win against the Pirates. David Vasse has got

0:41:35.340 --> 0:41:38.040
<v Speaker 2>you covered with all the postgame, all the highlights, reaction,

0:41:38.080 --> 0:41:40.560
<v Speaker 2>of course, from Tarek Skubal after he makes the start

0:41:40.600 --> 0:41:44.140
<v Speaker 2>tonight going up against his former team in the Detroit Tigers.

0:41:44.200 --> 0:41:46.190
<v Speaker 2>First pitch is next. Enjoy it. This has been Morongo
