Well, last night, Dodger fans got 0:01:51.160 --> 0:01:54.680 more than enough offense as they went to work after 0:01:54.800 --> 0:01:59.240 Kyle Frielan and the Colorado Rockies pitching staff got bombarded. 0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:02.440 Last night started early and they kept going on. For 0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:05.559 the Dodgers offense, they scored two runs in the bottom 0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:08.000 half of the first inning, thanks to Mookie Betts to 0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:11.440 run home run, they led two to one. In the third, 0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:15.440 Dodgers up three to one when Keithy a Hernandez homer 0:02:15.600 --> 0:02:17.959 to left Dodgers up three to one. 0:02:18.120 --> 0:02:20.440 Then it was Andy Pie Haz's third. 0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:23.400 Pie haz oh for one with a flyout the center field. 0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:27.239 He swings, he hits a drive deptail left. This one's pack, 0:02:27.520 --> 0:02:33.800 this one's come. Andy Pie has punishes a baseball for 0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:35.640 his twelfth home run of the season. 0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:37.240 In his four to. 0:02:37.280 --> 0:02:43.440 One boy, he chumped all over it.

He goes deep 0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:54.320 for his twelfth home run of the season. As the 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:56.840 Dodgers had a four to one leader, they were just 0:02:56.960 --> 0:03:00.200 getting started. They started putting up those crooked numbers on 0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:03.400 the scoreboard. In the fourth, Innie Miguel Rojas scored on 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:06.760 a Kyle Freeland wild pitch that made it five to one. 0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:09.399 Then Andy Pie has back at it again.

In the fifth, Miguel Rojas RBI double Dodgers 0:03:25.240 --> 0:03:28.400 up nine to one. Then I Sung Kim and RBI 0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:32.079 sacked fly scoring Will Smith. Dodgers with a ten to 0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:36.680 one lead against Kyle Freeland and this Rockies bullpen with 0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:40.200 they just absolutely tormented and it didn't stop there. 0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:43.480 In the sixth, two on for Mookie Bits. 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:47.760 You got things going and began the scoring with a 0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:50.040 two run home run on the first inning to center field. 0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:54.320 The swings hits a high drive to left and deep. 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:58.440 This ball back and this ball is gone Old Ron 0:03:58.640 --> 0:04:02.640 bets second home run a three run shot, and the 0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:09.720 Dodgers lead at thirteen to one. A Moky moment here 0:04:09.800 --> 0:04:14.880 at twenty twenty six as Mooki announces he is. 0:04:15.040 --> 0:04:18.720 Back Mookie Betts with his second home run in the night. 0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:19.599 That's the top tier. 0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:21.800 Play of the game, brought to by ARCO Quality, top 0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:25.920 tier gas for less. As the Dodgers still weren't done, 0:04:26.360 --> 0:04:29.160 as Will Smith in a two run home run three 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:33.040 batters later to give the Dodgers a fifteen to one lead. 0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:38.400 The Dodgers fifteen runs on seventeen hits, fourteen extra bass. 0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:41.960 In this game, they hit five home runs, two for Mookie, 0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:46.080 Bets Andy Paez four for five a home run three. 0:04:46.200 --> 0:04:48.920 Ribi's now hitting two to ninety nine on this season. 0:04:49.279 --> 0:04:51.679 Mookie goes three for five with the two home runs 0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:55.880 and five runs batted in. Meanwhile, Eric Lauer, the newest Dodger, 0:04:56.560 --> 0:05:00.400 six innings, one run, four hits, four strikeouts he to 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:03.960 his first win with the Dodgers. Dodgers get the fifteen 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:08.320 to sixth victory over the Colorado Rockies, a season high 0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:11.800 in runs seventeen hits. They limited the Rockies to just 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:14.120 four until the ninth inning. That's when Miguel Rowas took 0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:17.000 over and the Rockies scored five runs on eight hits 0:05:17.040 --> 0:05:19.760 against the position player. It doesn't matter. Dodgers get the 0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:23.800 fifteen to six win. They're now thirty five and twenty 0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:28.320 on the season. The Dodgers are absolutely rolling right now, 0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:32.000 having nine of their last eleven. Meanwhile, the San Diego 0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:34.840 Padres today lost their fourth in a row, so the 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:38.120 Dodgers now a four game lead over both the Diamondbacks 0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:41.440 and the Padres, who are thirty one in twenty four 0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:43.880 tied for second in the NL West. Hoh, look now, 0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:46.320 but here come the Snakes having won five in a row. 0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:49.479 But the Dodgers sit atop the division thirty five and twenty, 0:05:49.640 --> 0:05:51.920 and tonight they go for the sweep over Colorado. As 0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:54.600 show hey Otani on the mound. First pitch is seven 0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:56.480 ten and with more we head out to the galloping 0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:59.000 four broadcast with as we welcome in now Tim Neffert 0:05:59.000 --> 0:05:59.599 and Rick Monday. 0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:01.840 Guys, Tim, thank you very much. 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:05.719 Another cool evening here at Uniclo Field at Dodgers Stadium, 0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:07.800 as the Dodgers will ramp up this series with the 0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:11.159 Colorado Rockies chance for a three game sweep as the 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:13.880 Dodgers have won the first two, blowing him out. Last 0:06:13.960 --> 0:06:16.880 night fifteen to six really could have been fifteen to one, 0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:20.320 but when Miguel Rojas came into the ninth, the Rockies 0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:24.360 put up five runs on eight consecutive hits. But tonight 0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:27.320 a new night, and tonight kind of historical as far 0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:31.359 as the Japanese baseball goes, because shohe Otani is going 0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:35.279 to face Tomoyuki Sugano for the first time. He will 0:06:35.279 --> 0:06:39.679 face a Japanese starter, and Sugano a three time MVP 0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:44.159 in Japan, a teammate of Otani's on Team Japan for 0:06:44.200 --> 0:06:47.040 the World Baseball Classic. Should be a pretty good matchup 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:49.839 tonight as far as the pitchers are concerned. But as 0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:52.680 we look at this matchup mode, the Dodgers are now 0:06:52.839 --> 0:06:56.480 four games ahead of the Padres. Padres losing earlier today 0:06:56.760 --> 0:06:59.120 shut out by the Phillies. They've been shut out twice 0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:02.360 in that three games series, and we're swept by the Phillies. 0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:05.560 So the Dodgers have a four game lead. Arizona beat 0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:09.680 San Francisco, they have caught the Padres, So now the 0:07:09.680 --> 0:07:12.680 Dodgers four up on San Diego and Arizona. 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:15.360 Yeah, you look at the standings, I mean the p 0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:17.440 Andres and that's their fourth loss in a row and 0:07:17.560 --> 0:07:21.320 for Arizona, that's five wins that they have had consecutively, 0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:23.960 so they kind of right the ship and trying to 0:07:23.960 --> 0:07:26.440 get a little bit closer to the Dodgers. Meanwhile, as 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:28.720 you mentioned, I mean it was a blowout last night, 0:07:29.040 --> 0:07:31.400 and for the Dodger ball club, I mean you start 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:33.400 to look at the home runs that they hit, five 0:07:33.480 --> 0:07:36.440 of them last night, two of them by Mooki Bentz, 0:07:36.840 --> 0:07:38.880 and we talked in the pre game last night about 0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:40.800 the fact, oh, Mookie Bets is being dropped from the 0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:43.560 number two spot to the number four spot in the lineup. 0:07:43.800 --> 0:07:46.400 How will he react? Well, he hit an O two 0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:48.320 pitch in the first inning for a home run, two 0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:50.800 run blasts. Then he hit the first pitch of the 0:07:50.920 --> 0:07:53.320 bat and the sixth inning for a three run home run. 0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:56.520 I would say he's not allergic to that cleanup spot. 0:07:56.840 --> 0:08:00.280 No cleanup on aisle Mookie, yes, exactly. But he did 0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:03.119 hit cleanup for the Dodgers in Game six and seven 0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:05.280 of the World Series. But the last time he did 0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:07.520 it in a regular season game was back in the 0:08:07.560 --> 0:08:10.160 twenty seventeen season when he was with Boston on the 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:13.560 twenty ninth of September against the Houston Astros. Another guy 0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:15.560 with a home run last night got some bad news. 0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:19.040 Keike Hernandez back on the injured list, no timetable for 0:08:19.120 --> 0:08:21.760 his return. He had a scan on his left oblique 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:24.240 today and Dave Roberts said there's a significant tear. 0:08:24.360 --> 0:08:28.280 Yeah, and that is not good news. And for ki 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:31.960 k I can only imagine. He said he felt obviously terrible. 0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:34.880 He also felt a little embarrassed to coming back in 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:36.960 for two games. That's a big, big loss because he 0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:39.880 came back with vengeance hitting the ball. We saw him 0:08:39.880 --> 0:08:42.240 play also at third base well for third base tonight, 0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:44.280 Max Munsey is back in the lineup after he was 0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:47.000 hit on the right wrist by pitch and was out 0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:49.280 for four games. But that is a big, big loss 0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:54.120 and for KICKI here nanas nobody really knows and probably 0:08:54.200 --> 0:08:58.760 won't know for a few more days, even the prognostics 0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:01.120 of you know how he might be out. 0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:03.280 So we'll just have to wait and see you along 0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:06.320 with Key k Alex Frieland has been called up and 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:08.720 he has taken his spot on the roster. He'll start 0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:11.280 at second base tonight, has Son Kim not in the 0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:16.240 lineup and Kim taking round balls earlier at third base today, 0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:18.680 so maybe we'll see him at some point in time 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:22.640 play third. Dodgers have won nine straight at home against Colorado. Overall, 0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:25.480 they've won eleven of the last thirteen and they're a 0:09:25.559 --> 0:09:30.000 season best fifteen games over five hundred entering this game tonight, 0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:32.800 thirty five and twenty mean time, the Rockies twenty and 0:09:32.840 --> 0:09:35.640 thirty six. They're ten and twenty one on the road, 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:38.880 losers of twenty of their last twenty seven games, eight 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:41.559 of the last ten. They find themselves fifteen and a 0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:45.720 half behind the Dodgers on the twenty seventh of May, 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:50.800 Dodgers and Rockies coming up from Los Angeles. 0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:52.960 Tim all right, thank you guys, as we count you 0:09:53.000 --> 0:09:56.280 down to first pitch on this Wednesday night, Donger fans, what. 0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:57.000 Are you doing for dinner? 0:09:57.280 --> 0:09:59.800 What's your planned abut getting your game day meal on 0:09:59.840 --> 0:10:02.520 at Shaky's Pizza Parlam.

He's okay, 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:17.320 and he's actually pitching to night in the final game 0:11:17.400 --> 0:11:18.560 of this three game set. 0:11:19.080 --> 0:11:24.200 This is Kirston's Corner with Kirston Watson Dang kirs. 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:25.880 Now Joints is brought to by Cars for a Kids 0:11:25.920 --> 0:11:29.520 donat Now with Cars for a Kid's DoD org All right, Kirston. 0:11:29.640 --> 0:11:32.200 Last night, Keiky Hernandez was having a heck of a 0:11:32.240 --> 0:11:34.840 return in his second game back from injury, and he 0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:35.640 gets hurt again. 0:11:36.320 --> 0:11:38.800 Yeah, and you know what, It's the hard part with 0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:42.160 this one is that he actually got hurt before his return, 0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:44.520 So if we go back to two days ago when 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:46.480 he was activated off the iel head of Game one 0:11:46.520 --> 0:11:48.880 of this series, he was in batting practice, he had 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:50.880 taken some swings, he felt like felt something was a 0:11:50.920 --> 0:11:54.240 little bit off with that oblique. Ultimately went to play 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:56.839 through it because how frustrating would that have been. You 0:11:56.920 --> 0:11:58.920 come back after having elbow surgery, then you have to 0:11:58.960 --> 0:12:02.120 go right back onto the eye if you're feeling something, Yes, 0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:04.760 that is what happened, but he tried everything in his 0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:07.480 power to play through it. But yesterday, whether it was 0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:10.440 the home run swing then the double rounding the bases, 0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:12.760 that's when he started to really feel it and the 0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:15.920 pain escalated. So we had the conversation with Dave Roberts 0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:19.120 and the dugout had imaging today and it has now 0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:21.560 been shared that he goingkeyp plays on the il with 0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:24.360 a significant tear in that left oblique. 0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:26.160 So what does that mean? 0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:28.720 That's kind of still the question mark. I know Andrew 0:12:28.720 --> 0:12:32.000 Friedman briefly had mentioned potentially kind of when you have 0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:35.960 oblique injuries, it's kind of that six to eight week timeline. 0:12:36.120 --> 0:12:39.160 While there's nothing specific right now, that does seem to 0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:41.840 be the impression that they are under but ultimately they 0:12:41.880 --> 0:12:44.000 do want to give Keik the time to heal. We 0:12:44.080 --> 0:12:46.280 know what he can do come October, and they want 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:49.400 him to be available and ready in October. So definitely 0:12:49.520 --> 0:12:52.520 tough news. So just when you see a player who's 0:12:52.520 --> 0:12:54.440 worked so hard to get back, who's so happy to 0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:57.240 come back, and then just how dejected he was, whether 0:12:57.280 --> 0:12:59.199 it's in the dugout or even afterwards with the media, 0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:01.440 you could just tell that this was a hard one 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:01.920 for him. 0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:03.480 So it'll be a tough few. 0:13:03.360 --> 0:13:06.360 Weeks, but hopefully he'll heal and he'll be back right 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:07.880 where he belongs with this team soon. 0:13:08.320 --> 0:13:11.319 With him going on the IL Alex Friedland is back 0:13:11.320 --> 0:13:11.920 from Triple A. 0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:14.720 Yeah, So if we look at just for Alex Friedland 0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:17.320 what this means for him, the biggest thing is is 0:13:17.520 --> 0:13:20.000 a couple of weeks ago when he was optioned, he 0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:22.840 shared with me today that that was a really hard, 0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:26.560 just frustrating, emotional time for him, and you know he 0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:30.200 decided to go back to the OKC comments and to 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:32.360 work on some things. When it comes to his offense, 0:13:32.400 --> 0:13:34.840 he was actually named in that first week back, he 0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:37.240 was named the PCL Player of the Month due to 0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:40.599 his offensive performances. So you know, he did what the 0:13:40.640 --> 0:13:42.880 team asked of him. They said, go down there, tear 0:13:42.920 --> 0:13:45.480 things up offensively, get back on tracks that you can 0:13:45.559 --> 0:13:47.160 force yourself back onto this team. 0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:47.520 Now. 0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:49.680 Of course he's coming out of time when there was 0:13:49.720 --> 0:13:53.480 an injury to Kikay Hernandez. But he's in the lineup 0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:56.160 today and Dave Roberts was saying that they're going to 0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:59.840 find ways to give him some opportunity, some runway, if 0:13:59.880 --> 0:14:03.520 you will. So today he's playing at second, there's going 0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:06.280 to be some opportunity for him to set it at third. Obviously, 0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:08.120 you've got Max Munsey. He was recently hit by a 0:14:08.120 --> 0:14:10.440 pitch on his wrist. He's in the lineup today, but 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:13.680 he might only play two of three in the next series. 0:14:13.720 --> 0:14:16.800 So there's going to be a different opportunity for Alex 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:19.520 Freeland at second or at third. But it's going to 0:14:19.520 --> 0:14:21.920 be interesting just how they kind of manage the time 0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:25.960 between Hassan Kim Alex Freeland. We know those two guys 0:14:25.960 --> 0:14:30.680 were battling out for the second base. But it's good 0:14:30.680 --> 0:14:33.080 to have him back. He feels he's in a good spot. Mentally, 0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:34.920 he's in a good spot, and that's the most important 0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:37.360 thing is he's looking to find a way to stay 0:14:37.400 --> 0:14:38.400 at this big league level. 0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:40.520 Hopefully you can stay and hopefully you can bring some 0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:42.600 offense with him back to the big leads. 0:14:42.680 --> 0:14:44.960 Kirsten, we appreciate well. Check in with you after the game. 0:14:45.040 --> 0:14:47.360 Still to come here on Wrongo because you know Dodger's 0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:50.320 on deck.

Third, is there 0:16:22.800 --> 0:16:25.240 an opportunity for him at second? What does that mean 0:16:25.280 --> 0:16:27.680 if he is at the second for just him and Aim? 0:16:27.720 --> 0:16:29.560 How do you see you just managing. 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:30.040 That time for him. 0:16:30.800 --> 0:16:34.000 Yeah, I think for me, it's Alex is in there 0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:40.360 tonight at second base and just sort of managing both 0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:46.880 those guys, and Alex will play uh some second and 0:16:47.440 --> 0:16:52.200 potentially some third if Max is out or down, and 0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:55.200 then we'll get Haysong in there as well to play 0:16:55.240 --> 0:16:56.040 some second base. 0:16:56.400 --> 0:16:58.640 We've met, you feel, and he's I'm just seeing the 0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:01.000 update tomorrow, but dear like he's in a position right 0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:02.600 now where you can play multiple days in the round, 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:03.080 or you think you. 0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:06.480 Have to manage him kind of return from me, Yeah, 0:17:06.920 --> 0:17:10.520 I think that he'll, uh, he'll he's in there tonight, 0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:15.280 then he'll play the planets from play Friday and Saturday, 0:17:16.160 --> 0:17:18.080 and then he'll be off on Sunday and then we'll 0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:18.920 sort of go from there. 0:17:19.720 --> 0:17:21.439 They just sort of playing too. 0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:23.200 Lily can give them the hand in this. 0:17:25.040 --> 0:17:33.040 It's a little tricky, you know, And I think that, uh, well, 0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:36.840 it's I'm going to give freelance some some little bit 0:17:36.840 --> 0:17:39.720 more runway. I think that you know, in the last 0:17:40.920 --> 0:17:43.760 call it four weeks, hey Song has gotten a lot 0:17:43.760 --> 0:17:46.960 of runway certainly versus right handed pitching. And I think 0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:50.440 that right now probably kind of skew it more towards 0:17:51.280 --> 0:17:54.040 Alex getting more of the the opportunities. 0:17:55.160 --> 0:17:58.800 Jeff, are you is it the flexibility of your team 0:17:58.840 --> 0:17:59.880 that makes you some age? 0:18:02.040 --> 0:18:07.159 I think it's probably the flexibility and depth. You know, 0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:12.520 our team, the pitching has been great. Offensively, we haven't 0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:15.399 been consistent, but we've had other guys that have picked 0:18:15.440 --> 0:18:17.439 up the slack on the on the depth to the 0:18:17.480 --> 0:18:20.600 death point and to be able to kind of plug 0:18:20.640 --> 0:18:23.159 guys in and like tonight, give Kyle Tucker a night 0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:25.440 off and be able to plug Alex call in there 0:18:25.440 --> 0:18:26.280 and things like that. 0:18:26.560 --> 0:18:28.880 All Right, there's the manager, Dave Roberts with the latest 0:18:29.000 --> 0:18:31.119 as far as the injury is concerned, and how guys 0:18:31.119 --> 0:18:33.719 plug in now that have been back in the lineup, 0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:36.359 like Max Munsey and Alex Frielan who has been called 0:18:36.400 --> 0:18:38.359 up from Triple A again.
