<v Speaker 6>champion Dodgers.

0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:35.440
<v Speaker 1>Here's your host of Dodger Talk. It's only been fourteen years.

0:00:35.479 --> 0:00:37.199
<v Speaker 1>Every day, David Vasse.

0:00:39.159 --> 0:00:43.320
<v Speaker 2>We are live an American family field in Milwaukee. After

0:00:43.520 --> 0:00:47.440
<v Speaker 2>Blake Snell pitches the Dodgers to a game one win

0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:52.599
<v Speaker 2>in the NLCS, Welcome the Dodger Talk David Vasse with

0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:55.160
<v Speaker 2>you until ten o'clock tonight here on AM five to

0:00:55.280 --> 0:01:00.240
<v Speaker 2>seventy LA Sports. As the Dodgers, behind a dominant performers

0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:04.800
<v Speaker 2>from Blake Snell, beat Milwaukee two to one, and Snell

0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:10.080
<v Speaker 2>faced the minimum amount of batters in his eight shutout innings.

0:01:10.120 --> 0:01:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Remarkable.

0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:14.760
<v Speaker 2>We just got that stat from optastats that he became

0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:19.720
<v Speaker 2>the first pitcher in baseball since Don Larsen pitched his

0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:23.720
<v Speaker 2>perfect game in the nineteen fifty six World Series to

0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:28.040
<v Speaker 2>face the minimum amount of batters through eight innings of

0:01:28.080 --> 0:01:32.039
<v Speaker 2>a postseason game, and the reason why he faced the

0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:35.600
<v Speaker 2>minimum number of batters despite giving up one hit was

0:01:35.640 --> 0:01:39.760
<v Speaker 2>because he picked off Caleb Durbin trying to steal in

0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:43.240
<v Speaker 2>the third inning for the second out, then came back

0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:46.280
<v Speaker 2>and got Joey Ortiz to ground out to end the

0:01:46.400 --> 0:01:49.520
<v Speaker 2>inning and the Dodgers hold on for a two to

0:01:49.680 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 2>one win in Game one of the NLCS. The Dodgers

0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:58.480
<v Speaker 2>are just three wins away from returning to the World Series.

0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Eight six six two five seventy is the phone number

0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:05.880
<v Speaker 2>we will hear from Dave Roberts, we will hear from

0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:09.320
<v Speaker 2>Blake Trining, and we will hear from Freddie Freeman, who

0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:12.840
<v Speaker 2>hit his first postseason home run tonight in the sixth

0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:17.200
<v Speaker 2>inning to break a scoreless tie. I thought, obviously Snell

0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:20.320
<v Speaker 2>was fantastic. You could pick any one of the innings

0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:23.200
<v Speaker 2>that stood out to you the most the fourth inning

0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 2>where he got Churio and Yelich got Cheerio looking and

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:31.760
<v Speaker 2>then struck out Yelich. Yelich has no chance against Blake. Snell,

0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:34.320
<v Speaker 2>by the way, knew that coming in, and that was

0:02:34.360 --> 0:02:38.840
<v Speaker 2>evident by the results tonight. As far as what I

0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 2>thought was the biggest inning, it was that fourth inning

0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:46.840
<v Speaker 2>because after the Dodgers had a comedy of base running

0:02:46.919 --> 0:02:51.960
<v Speaker 2>mistakes on the ball that Salfrellick caught from Max Munsey

0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:56.880
<v Speaker 2>actually didn't catch, Taascar Hernandez was thrown out at the

0:02:56.919 --> 0:03:02.320
<v Speaker 2>plate force play, and then also Will Smith unwisely went

0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:06.320
<v Speaker 2>back to second base despite the left field umpire Chad

0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:10.919
<v Speaker 2>Fairchild calling it a ball in play. The Dodgers should

0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:14.880
<v Speaker 2>have remembered what took place earlier this season at City Field,

0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:19.119
<v Speaker 2>because it was a similar play. The ball goes off

0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:21.800
<v Speaker 2>the glove, it's in play, it's not a catch, and

0:03:22.280 --> 0:03:26.000
<v Speaker 2>same thing here. Sal Frelick rob Max Mounsey what would

0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:29.160
<v Speaker 2>have been a grand slam, but the ball came out

0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:32.840
<v Speaker 2>of his glove and came back into play. The Dodgers

0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 2>have got to know that Tiascar Hernandez has got to

0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:39.240
<v Speaker 2>go back to third base. So after the inning ends,

0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:41.680
<v Speaker 2>when the Dodgers thought they may have had a big

0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:45.480
<v Speaker 2>inning against Quinn Priester, the momentum is on the Brewer's side,

0:03:46.200 --> 0:03:51.400
<v Speaker 2>but Blake Snell got it back immediately by retiring the

0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:55.440
<v Speaker 2>brewers in order in that fourth inning, getting Cheerio looking

0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:59.240
<v Speaker 2>striking out Yelich and then a comebacker from William coom

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Treis and Snell did a good job of fielding his position.

0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:06.160
<v Speaker 2>Freddie Freeman made an even better scoop on the other end.

0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:09.040
<v Speaker 2>It was in the dirt, and that could have got

0:04:09.040 --> 0:04:13.000
<v Speaker 2>this crowd back into it. But after everything that unfolded

0:04:13.160 --> 0:04:15.720
<v Speaker 2>in that top of the fourth inning, where you know,

0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:18.440
<v Speaker 2>things went really sideways on the Dodgers and it was

0:04:18.480 --> 0:04:23.559
<v Speaker 2>still a scoreless tie, Blake Snell went back out there

0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:27.159
<v Speaker 2>like nothing ever happened. And that's why you need a veteran,

0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:29.279
<v Speaker 2>That's why you need a two time Cy Young Award

0:04:29.279 --> 0:04:32.880
<v Speaker 2>winner on your side, where things like that don't rattle,

0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:35.400
<v Speaker 2>you don't get in your mind. You're just worried about

0:04:35.440 --> 0:04:38.560
<v Speaker 2>getting the next hitter out, and that's exactly what he did.

0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:41.960
<v Speaker 2>So to me, that fourth inning was the biggest of

0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:45.640
<v Speaker 2>the eight that Blake Snell pitched. Tonight eight six six

0:04:46.279 --> 0:04:49.200
<v Speaker 2>seven two five seventy is the phone number. We will

0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:51.919
<v Speaker 2>get more postgame reaction, but we do have a full

0:04:52.000 --> 0:04:55.600
<v Speaker 2>board of calls, so you know, I'll just say this

0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:57.280
<v Speaker 2>before we go out to the calls.

0:04:58.320 --> 0:04:59.320
<v Speaker 1>Many of you you know.

0:04:59.400 --> 0:05:02.000
<v Speaker 2>I understand you want to take shots and say I

0:05:02.080 --> 0:05:04.320
<v Speaker 2>suck up to Snell. I've been sucking up to Snell

0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:07.520
<v Speaker 2>for the last two or three years. But here's something

0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:12.240
<v Speaker 2>to keep in mind. I don't advocate for a player

0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:16.320
<v Speaker 2>unless I believe in them. I believed in Blake Snell.

0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:19.599
<v Speaker 2>I believed he could have helped the Dodgers last year.

0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:23.880
<v Speaker 2>He's one of the best pitchers in baseball in the

0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:27.719
<v Speaker 2>last five or six years, only one of seven pitchers

0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:31.279
<v Speaker 2>in baseball history to win a Cy Young in both leagues.

0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:34.119
<v Speaker 2>Don't act like this guy's a rookie that just showed

0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:36.680
<v Speaker 2>up out of nowhere. This guy's one of the best

0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:41.159
<v Speaker 2>pitchers in baseball. That's the reason why I advocate for him.

0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:44.919
<v Speaker 2>That's the reason why I said, just wait when he

0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:49.600
<v Speaker 2>comes back, You're gonna see Blake Snell carry the Dodgers' rotation.

0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:53.039
<v Speaker 2>And that's what he has done in this postseason. He's

0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:57.159
<v Speaker 2>allowed just three runs in his last forty innings. He

0:05:57.400 --> 0:06:01.520
<v Speaker 2>is one of the best pitchers in baseball. That's the

0:06:01.600 --> 0:06:04.760
<v Speaker 2>reason why I advocate for him. That's the reason why

0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:08.440
<v Speaker 2>I've been telling everybody around the Dodgers they need this

0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:13.359
<v Speaker 2>guy broadcasters, anybody that would listen. The Dodgers needed Blake

0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:17.039
<v Speaker 2>Snell and you can't argue that anymore. He pitched the

0:06:17.080 --> 0:06:21.000
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers to a win tonight against the best the team

0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:24.600
<v Speaker 2>with the best record in the National League. So say

0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:26.880
<v Speaker 2>what you want. You want to take shots at Snell,

0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:29.279
<v Speaker 2>you want to take shots at me, I'll send you

0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:33.160
<v Speaker 2>the apology letter as well. Eight sixty six seven two

0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:36.240
<v Speaker 2>five seventy is the phone number. Let's go out to Westwood.

0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:38.480
<v Speaker 2>Sassan lead us off on Dodger Talk.

0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:41.720
<v Speaker 7>Hey, Daar, thank you so much for taking my call.

0:06:41.800 --> 0:06:43.800
<v Speaker 7>I just wanted to say I wanted to issue a

0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:46.880
<v Speaker 7>public apology for me and the rest of the Dodgers

0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:49.359
<v Speaker 7>can base about our takes about Snell.

0:06:49.480 --> 0:06:50.640
<v Speaker 8>Zia.

0:06:50.680 --> 0:06:53.080
<v Speaker 7>I was completely wrong. You know, I was one of

0:06:53.080 --> 0:06:55.479
<v Speaker 7>those people that wanted us to get match freed and

0:06:55.520 --> 0:06:58.600
<v Speaker 7>not Snell. And you know I have to to live

0:06:58.640 --> 0:07:00.880
<v Speaker 7>with that. I was completely wrong, and you were. You

0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:02.760
<v Speaker 7>were one hundred percent correct, David.

0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:03.160
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:07.240
<v Speaker 7>You know Salesoe is unbelievable for another times and I

0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:08.960
<v Speaker 7>you know, we don't win this game without you know,

0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:13.960
<v Speaker 7>his performance today, just you know, he's he's looking incredible

0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:16.240
<v Speaker 7>and if he teases up. You know, I don't see

0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:20.920
<v Speaker 7>why we can't uh repeat this year. My second point was,

0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:24.240
<v Speaker 7>I think we just hopefully we can get a meeting

0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:27.560
<v Speaker 7>with the team, uh the coaching staff and explain the

0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:31.440
<v Speaker 7>uh when base runners can advance when a ball is

0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:34.760
<v Speaker 7>hit to the outfield, because you know, crazy play and all.

0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:37.320
<v Speaker 7>But you know, I think there we really missed an

0:07:37.360 --> 0:07:39.760
<v Speaker 7>opportunity to cash in a few guns.

0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:40.960
<v Speaker 5>Anyway, thank you so much.

0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:44.080
<v Speaker 7>For taking Yeah, for sure, calling you tomorrow, David, Thank you.

0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:46.280
<v Speaker 2>All right, Sissan, thank you for the phone call. Eight

0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:50.160
<v Speaker 2>six six seventy. No way to get around it. That

0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:54.080
<v Speaker 2>was uh, it wasn't It wasn't good. In the fourth inning,

0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:57.240
<v Speaker 2>you got to know a little bit more of the

0:07:57.320 --> 0:07:59.560
<v Speaker 2>rules and understand where you're supposed to be as a

0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:03.760
<v Speaker 2>base run Taascar Hernandez needed to tag up. Even if

0:08:03.800 --> 0:08:06.320
<v Speaker 2>he thought Max Muntsey hit a grand slam, He's got

0:08:06.320 --> 0:08:08.240
<v Speaker 2>to be on the bag. And as soon as that

0:08:08.320 --> 0:08:11.080
<v Speaker 2>ball hits Felix's glove, he's got to be on the

0:08:11.120 --> 0:08:13.520
<v Speaker 2>move because even though it popped out and he caught

0:08:13.520 --> 0:08:16.360
<v Speaker 2>it again, it's the first time it touches the glove

0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:20.440
<v Speaker 2>that he's able to tag up. And like, like I said,

0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:23.320
<v Speaker 2>this play happened earlier in the year at City Field.

0:08:23.640 --> 0:08:27.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm surprised the Dodgers didn't remember that. Let's go out

0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:30.920
<v Speaker 2>to Anaheim, Hector. You're on Dodger Talk with David vasse

0:08:31.080 --> 0:08:31.600
<v Speaker 2>Hi Hector.

0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:36.800
<v Speaker 9>Hey, Dave, I gotta continue and also issue my apology

0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:40.520
<v Speaker 9>because with Blake back in what was it januarys everyone

0:08:40.920 --> 0:08:43.600
<v Speaker 9>maybe December when the Dodgers signed him, I had no

0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:45.720
<v Speaker 9>idea we were going to get this super performance in October.

0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:48.320
<v Speaker 9>And I want to just issue my apology. Blake's the guy.

0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:52.360
<v Speaker 9>He's the guy moving forward. Two other things, the Bats

0:08:52.360 --> 0:08:54.680
<v Speaker 9>need to wake up. The last three wins the Dodgers

0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:58.920
<v Speaker 9>have won on Freddy scoop on that error and then

0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:01.800
<v Speaker 9>by today strikeout. I mean, these games are very stressful.

0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:03.440
<v Speaker 9>I don't know how you're doing it in the dugout

0:09:03.480 --> 0:09:07.079
<v Speaker 9>or wherever you're standing, but I can just imagine the

0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:09.559
<v Speaker 9>amount of stress that we're all going through as other fans.

0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:11.400
<v Speaker 9>The last thing, I'll just say, it's a good thing

0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:15.600
<v Speaker 9>that the Dodgers attacked or got through the Milwaukee Brewers'

0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:17.640
<v Speaker 9>bullpen today. They got to see a lot of good arms.

0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:19.200
<v Speaker 9>I think they got to see all their best arms.

0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:21.320
<v Speaker 9>So I think it sets up nicely for tomorrow as

0:09:21.360 --> 0:09:23.120
<v Speaker 9>long as they can get par Alta out by the fourth,

0:09:23.280 --> 0:09:24.040
<v Speaker 9>maybe third inning.

0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:27.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think they can handle Parolta tomorrow. I think

0:09:27.360 --> 0:09:30.760
<v Speaker 2>they're getting at least three or four runs off Paralta tomorrow.

0:09:31.520 --> 0:09:34.080
<v Speaker 2>And thank you for the phone call. Look, I'm not

0:09:34.160 --> 0:09:37.760
<v Speaker 2>asking for anybody to grovel, but just acknowledge that you

0:09:37.800 --> 0:09:40.240
<v Speaker 2>were wrong and you doubted a guy that was a

0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:43.080
<v Speaker 2>two time cy Young Award winner. There's a reason why

0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Andrew Friedman signed him to that contract even though he's

0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:50.480
<v Speaker 2>thirty two years old. That change up is a difference maker.

0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:54.120
<v Speaker 1>Nobody can hit it. And this guy is committed.

0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:58.920
<v Speaker 2>You heard him after the game, You have heard him

0:09:59.280 --> 0:10:05.080
<v Speaker 2>in the past starts. This guy's all in. He's very committed.

0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:08.800
<v Speaker 2>He has a lot to prove. He's pitching with a

0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:13.520
<v Speaker 2>chip on his shoulder because people have not given him

0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:16.680
<v Speaker 2>his due and have doubted him. And that's a good

0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:19.559
<v Speaker 2>thing for the Dodgers. But he's channeling it in the

0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.480
<v Speaker 2>right way. And look, that is what it comes down to,

0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:26.520
<v Speaker 2>Blake Snell versus Max Freed. Max Freed had a better

0:10:26.559 --> 0:10:29.240
<v Speaker 2>regular season, but this is when it counts the most.

0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:32.360
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not going to name players, but the Yankee

0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:35.280
<v Speaker 2>game when they were playing in the first round before

0:10:35.280 --> 0:10:39.199
<v Speaker 2>they were knocked out, Max Freed was pitching, and I said, yeah,

0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:41.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, Max Freed had a really good year, maybe

0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:44.760
<v Speaker 2>his best year. And the two or three Dodger veterans

0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:49.720
<v Speaker 2>around me when I said that, they both said, we

0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:54.320
<v Speaker 2>still rather have Blake Snell. So that says enough. Let's

0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:55.280
<v Speaker 2>go out to Texas.

0:10:55.400 --> 0:10:58.480
<v Speaker 1>Ross. You're on Dodger Talk. How you doing Ross?

0:10:59.200 --> 0:11:01.920
<v Speaker 5>I'm doing good, Dave. I just got a couple things

0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:02.480
<v Speaker 5>to say here.

0:11:02.559 --> 0:11:06.199
<v Speaker 10>If you love baseball, this was a great game to watch,

0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:08.960
<v Speaker 10>But if you love Dodger baseball.

0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:09.559
<v Speaker 5>This was amazing.

0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:12.880
<v Speaker 10>I'm gonna have to disagree with the previous coller. I

0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:15.960
<v Speaker 10>think our hitting was doing pretty good. I mean we

0:11:15.960 --> 0:11:19.000
<v Speaker 10>were making the Brewers make good plays, and when they

0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:22.520
<v Speaker 10>made good plays, I mean, Blake's now came out and

0:11:22.640 --> 0:11:26.600
<v Speaker 10>threw an amazing game. That game could have gotten out

0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:28.800
<v Speaker 10>of hand, but Blake just shut it down. He pitched

0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:32.199
<v Speaker 10>the best game I've seen since he pitched in Game six.

0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:34.240
<v Speaker 5>Of twenty twenty, and I just we got to get

0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:34.839
<v Speaker 5>props to him.

0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:36.080
<v Speaker 11>And I think we hit well too.

0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:39.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm with you. At some point you got to

0:11:39.400 --> 0:11:41.840
<v Speaker 2>give the other team some credit. You're right, the Phillies

0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:45.360
<v Speaker 2>made outstanding defensive plays in Game four and tonight so

0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:48.920
<v Speaker 2>did the Brewers. Or that fourth inning is a three run,

0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:52.400
<v Speaker 2>four run inning against Quinn Priester if Frelick doesn't keep

0:11:52.400 --> 0:11:55.800
<v Speaker 2>it in the ballpark, and unfortunately for the Dodgers, they

0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:58.839
<v Speaker 2>came up with the zero. But you're right, and I

0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:01.120
<v Speaker 2>like what I saw from Ote in his first at

0:12:01.160 --> 0:12:03.760
<v Speaker 2>bat of the game. He did not chase like he

0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:06.000
<v Speaker 2>has been chasing in the previous series.

0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:07.360
<v Speaker 1>So that's a good thing.

0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:09.840
<v Speaker 2>Thank you for the phone call, Ross, and I feel

0:12:09.840 --> 0:12:13.720
<v Speaker 2>like we all have really focused on Otani. Freddie Freeman

0:12:14.000 --> 0:12:17.360
<v Speaker 2>didn't do a lot against those Phillies pitchers. I thought

0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:20.400
<v Speaker 2>he had the biggest walk of the NLDS, a two

0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:23.640
<v Speaker 2>out walk to set up Key k Hernandez in Game one,

0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:26.959
<v Speaker 2>his two out, two run double. Without Freddy's two out walk,

0:12:27.600 --> 0:12:31.000
<v Speaker 2>that inning doesn't materialize. So he's doing things to help

0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:35.440
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers win. His defense has been amazing, but this series,

0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:38.080
<v Speaker 2>I feel like this is a good matchup for Freddy

0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:41.360
<v Speaker 2>and he'll do what he did tonight and get it

0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:44.880
<v Speaker 2>going offensively. Eight six six nine eight seven two five

0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:47.920
<v Speaker 2>seventy is the phone number. Speaking of Freddie Freeman, he

0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:50.640
<v Speaker 2>was in the interview room. Let's head downstairs to hear

0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:53.480
<v Speaker 2>from the Dodgers World Series MVP.

0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:56.840
<v Speaker 12>Freddie, You've been fortunate to play in so many postseason games.

0:12:57.240 --> 0:13:00.160
<v Speaker 12>If this wasn't the most dominating pitching performance.

0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:00.000
<v Speaker 13>What was?

0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:03.080
<v Speaker 14>I mean?

0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:06.080
<v Speaker 15>I can't think of one enough at the top of

0:13:06.080 --> 0:13:09.680
<v Speaker 15>my head. That was just so good from the start.

0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:12.280
<v Speaker 15>You know, sometimes it'll take an ending or two for

0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:14.720
<v Speaker 15>someone to settle in, and it was from the get go.

0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:16.960
<v Speaker 15>Just what he can do with the change u against

0:13:17.040 --> 0:13:19.600
<v Speaker 15>right handed hitters. I think that's from eighty two to

0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:21.520
<v Speaker 15>eighty eight. You can throttle it whenever he wants. It's

0:13:21.840 --> 0:13:24.800
<v Speaker 15>not just one pitch he's thrown. It's like a three

0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:27.040
<v Speaker 15>different pitches when you throw at three different speeds for hitters,

0:13:27.600 --> 0:13:29.240
<v Speaker 15>and then when you think you're gonna sit on something,

0:13:29.280 --> 0:13:30.320
<v Speaker 15>here comes ninety six nineys.

0:13:30.440 --> 0:13:33.400
<v Speaker 13>It was just it was a masterpiece.

0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:37.200
<v Speaker 14>Tonight, Russell, Freddy, you have about twenty five abs against Blake,

0:13:37.440 --> 0:13:39.040
<v Speaker 14>so you kind of touched on a little bit. What

0:13:39.160 --> 0:13:41.959
<v Speaker 14>isn't it bat like against especially left on left.

0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:43.880
<v Speaker 15>I think I talk about gray hair a lot, and

0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:46.600
<v Speaker 15>that's that's where some of them come. When you face

0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:49.720
<v Speaker 15>guys like him and Jacob de Gram and those kind

0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:52.480
<v Speaker 15>of pictures, you know when the minute you wake up,

0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:54.840
<v Speaker 15>it's gonna be a battle that night. And when you

0:13:54.880 --> 0:13:59.679
<v Speaker 15>face a power picture that can locate three plus pitches,

0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:01.080
<v Speaker 15>you know it's gonna be tough.

0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:02.600
<v Speaker 13>And that's the thing.

0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:05.280
<v Speaker 15>It's like, just like you mentioned earlier, it's how he

0:14:05.320 --> 0:14:07.680
<v Speaker 15>pitched the night is not probably going how he pitches

0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:10.280
<v Speaker 15>the next time. And so it's hard to scout. It's

0:14:10.280 --> 0:14:13.360
<v Speaker 15>hard to feel good against someone. You might have success

0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:15.439
<v Speaker 15>in one game and it'll be completely thrown out the

0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:17.400
<v Speaker 15>door and you're gonna strike out three times. And I've

0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:20.160
<v Speaker 15>done it, you know, And it's just he knows what

0:14:20.160 --> 0:14:23.200
<v Speaker 15>he's doing on the mound. I am so happy that

0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:25.200
<v Speaker 15>we are sitting next to each other now and doing

0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:28.120
<v Speaker 15>press conferences together and not having to be a part

0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:30.760
<v Speaker 15>and walking by each other and talking about how he

0:14:31.280 --> 0:14:33.720
<v Speaker 15>beat us again, because he did it a lot and

0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:36.560
<v Speaker 15>he's amazing. There's a reason he's a two times Young

0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:39.400
<v Speaker 15>Ward winner. He's on the biggest stage now and he's

0:14:39.400 --> 0:14:40.720
<v Speaker 15>just doing what he's always done.

0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:43.440
<v Speaker 13>Anthony's second round them back to Bill.

0:14:45.320 --> 0:14:47.920
<v Speaker 16>Freddy. This probably goes without saying to a certain extent,

0:14:47.920 --> 0:14:50.200
<v Speaker 16>but especially given the way this game got late, how

0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:53.240
<v Speaker 16>important was it just to get this one and escape

0:14:53.280 --> 0:14:55.280
<v Speaker 16>here with a win and you know, sort of establish

0:14:55.360 --> 0:14:57.600
<v Speaker 16>yourselves now as the favorite.

0:14:57.280 --> 0:14:59.960
<v Speaker 13>In this series. I mean, we knew coming into the series.

0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:03.680
<v Speaker 15>They play great defense, they pitch, they just they get

0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:04.800
<v Speaker 15>the big hits when they need to.

0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:06.160
<v Speaker 13>That's just who the Brewers are.

0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:08.320
<v Speaker 15>It's gonna be a tough series from the beginning, and

0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:10.880
<v Speaker 15>you saw it tonight. Every ball we seem to hit,

0:15:10.920 --> 0:15:13.840
<v Speaker 15>they caught it. And they pitched great, and we knew

0:15:13.880 --> 0:15:15.680
<v Speaker 15>from the bat from the get go is gonna be battling.

0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:17.720
<v Speaker 15>And when you get one for Blake, you're feeling good,

0:15:17.720 --> 0:15:19.320
<v Speaker 15>but you always want to get more. We had some

0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:22.320
<v Speaker 15>opportunities we didn't get it, but that running the top

0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:24.640
<v Speaker 15>of the ninth was huge obviously twenty twenty hindsight, but

0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:28.920
<v Speaker 15>getting on the road in an environment and taking the

0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:32.000
<v Speaker 15>first one, it's huge. It's you can't understate that at all,

0:15:32.120 --> 0:15:33.480
<v Speaker 15>just kind of how we did it in Philly, and

0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:36.360
<v Speaker 15>to get the first one and you turn it over

0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:39.440
<v Speaker 15>to Yoshie tomorrow. We obviously feeling pretty good, so hopefully

0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:40.560
<v Speaker 15>we can score some more runs tomorrow.

0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:43.640
<v Speaker 13>It's up to the fifth throw on the left side. Breddy,

0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:44.320
<v Speaker 13>It's not just Blake.

0:15:44.360 --> 0:15:47.040
<v Speaker 17>You've guys gotten good starting pitching throughout this postseason. You

0:15:47.120 --> 0:15:49.960
<v Speaker 17>got guys going six seven innings pretty much every outing.

0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:52.600
<v Speaker 17>How comforting is that just knowing that you don't have

0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:55.000
<v Speaker 17>to do what the Brewers did the night and you know,

0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:56.280
<v Speaker 17>throw six different guys out there.

0:15:56.480 --> 0:15:56.680
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:15:56.720 --> 0:16:00.520
<v Speaker 15>I think people that cover us, you know every day.

0:16:00.600 --> 0:16:02.480
<v Speaker 15>I think we've been saying it for about a month

0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.160
<v Speaker 15>now going into the postseason. Our starting pitching is what

0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:09.520
<v Speaker 15>has made this US played better going into October.

0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:11.200
<v Speaker 13>We always were talking about how we're.

0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:14.240
<v Speaker 15>Playing our best baseball leading up to this postseason, and

0:16:14.280 --> 0:16:16.920
<v Speaker 15>it started with our pitching staff. It seems there is

0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:19.360
<v Speaker 15>a stretch there. It felt like six seven no hit innings.

0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:22.000
<v Speaker 15>Every single guy was doing that. And when you as

0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.440
<v Speaker 15>an offense you have those guys taking the ball every

0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:26.440
<v Speaker 15>day and doing that and giving us a chance to win.

0:16:26.520 --> 0:16:28.120
<v Speaker 15>As an offense, you just want to do everything you

0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:33.360
<v Speaker 15>can to support them, and you do feel confident when

0:16:33.360 --> 0:16:35.720
<v Speaker 15>you're not scoring runs at the beginning of the game,

0:16:35.760 --> 0:16:37.800
<v Speaker 15>because you know our starting pitcher is going to keep

0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:40.080
<v Speaker 15>us in that and you know with our offense we're

0:16:40.080 --> 0:16:42.040
<v Speaker 15>going to find a way and scrap.

0:16:41.720 --> 0:16:42.560
<v Speaker 13>And do anything we can.

0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:45.920
<v Speaker 15>I mean, it was a little different tonight, but these

0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:48.240
<v Speaker 15>are the games you need to win, the close ones

0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:50.400
<v Speaker 15>in the postseason because you're not going to have these

0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:53.720
<v Speaker 15>massive blowouts and usually and that you'll find one here

0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:55.320
<v Speaker 15>and there, but you got to win these close games.

0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:57.840
<v Speaker 15>And our starting pitching for the last time, I would say,

0:16:57.920 --> 0:16:59.600
<v Speaker 15>I mean, you guys would know more seven eight weeks

0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:01.560
<v Speaker 15>has been and I mean, I don't know if you

0:17:01.560 --> 0:17:04.439
<v Speaker 15>can write enough words in your stories about our starting pitching.

0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:08.080
<v Speaker 15>It really has been amazing, and they seem to feed

0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:09.680
<v Speaker 15>off each other, and as an offense, we're just trying

0:17:09.680 --> 0:17:11.360
<v Speaker 15>to do everything we can to support.

0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:14.879
<v Speaker 2>All Right, there's Freddy Freeman certainly singing the praises the

0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:17.479
<v Speaker 2>Blake Snell and the Dodgers starters. They have had the

0:17:17.520 --> 0:17:21.320
<v Speaker 2>best dlra in baseball as a group since the beginning

0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:25.080
<v Speaker 2>of September and that has continued in the postseason, led

0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:29.600
<v Speaker 2>by Blake Snell, who was marvelous tonight, eight shutout innings

0:17:29.600 --> 0:17:32.879
<v Speaker 2>with ten strikeouts, allowed just one hit, and pitch the

0:17:32.920 --> 0:17:35.640
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers to a two to one win in Game one

0:17:35.640 --> 0:17:39.399
<v Speaker 2>of the NLCS over the Brewers. And I agree with Freddy,

0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:42.560
<v Speaker 2>you can't take this for granted. Winning game one of

0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:45.800
<v Speaker 2>the series on the road again. The Dodgers did that

0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:48.879
<v Speaker 2>against the Phillies, and now they have a chance with

0:17:48.960 --> 0:17:52.840
<v Speaker 2>Yamamoto on the mount tomorrow night against Freddie Peralta, to

0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:56.000
<v Speaker 2>do what they did against the Phillies and win the

0:17:56.040 --> 0:17:59.359
<v Speaker 2>first two games on the road. That would be huge,

0:17:59.520 --> 0:18:03.600
<v Speaker 2>especially since in the best of seven format it's two

0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:06.639
<v Speaker 2>three two, so they will have three home games at

0:18:06.680 --> 0:18:10.840
<v Speaker 2>Dodger Stadium already, they have a great chance of closing

0:18:10.840 --> 0:18:14.240
<v Speaker 2>it out at Dodger Stadium having three home games they

0:18:14.320 --> 0:18:18.040
<v Speaker 2>win tomorrow, they are in the driver's seat against a

0:18:18.160 --> 0:18:21.760
<v Speaker 2>team that cannot slug with the Dodgers, and it was

0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:25.720
<v Speaker 2>apparent they can't pitch with the Dodgers either. Their defense

0:18:25.800 --> 0:18:28.679
<v Speaker 2>saves their pitching, that's for sure. Let's go out to

0:18:28.680 --> 0:18:32.080
<v Speaker 2>Sherman Oaks. Eric, you're on Dodger Talk with David Vasse.

0:18:32.280 --> 0:18:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Hi.

0:18:32.560 --> 0:18:37.080
<v Speaker 5>Eric, Hey, how you doing. David vasse good to hear you.

0:18:38.240 --> 0:18:42.959
<v Speaker 5>Just you know, you know Blake Snell wears the size

0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:46.840
<v Speaker 5>thirteen shoe and every time he steps on the mound

0:18:46.880 --> 0:18:49.120
<v Speaker 5>he acts like that. You know what I mean, big

0:18:49.160 --> 0:18:51.880
<v Speaker 5>shoe energy. I love to see it out of Blake

0:18:51.920 --> 0:18:54.840
<v Speaker 5>SNeW the night he's coming through again. I never had

0:18:54.840 --> 0:18:57.720
<v Speaker 5>a doubt when we signed him in the offseason. I

0:18:57.880 --> 0:19:01.320
<v Speaker 5>never had a doubt. Two times Young Award winner in

0:19:01.400 --> 0:19:06.880
<v Speaker 5>both leagues. Come on, come on, eight shutout innings, that's huge.

0:19:07.400 --> 0:19:11.800
<v Speaker 5>I love the guy. He's a He's a Dodger legend already.

0:19:13.560 --> 0:19:15.440
<v Speaker 1>All right, Eric, thank you for the phone call.

0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:19.840
<v Speaker 2>I feel like Blake Snell's signature moment with the dodgers

0:19:19.960 --> 0:19:22.640
<v Speaker 2>was when he pitched those seven innings against the Phillies

0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:25.760
<v Speaker 2>and fought to stay in to get the final out

0:19:25.800 --> 0:19:29.040
<v Speaker 2>of that seventh inning. And I feel like now Dodger

0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:32.640
<v Speaker 2>fans have really embraced Blake Snell as one of theirs

0:19:32.680 --> 0:19:34.640
<v Speaker 2>with the way he's pitched in the postseason.

0:19:35.000 --> 0:19:36.040
<v Speaker 1>And that's how you do it.

0:19:36.080 --> 0:19:38.320
<v Speaker 2>That's how you build credit with a new fan base,

0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:42.480
<v Speaker 2>and he certainly is. He's a big part of the Dodgers'

0:19:42.880 --> 0:19:44.959
<v Speaker 2>run to the World Series, and if they win it,

0:19:45.280 --> 0:19:47.439
<v Speaker 2>he will be a huge part of that as well,

0:19:47.800 --> 0:19:50.000
<v Speaker 2>and that's what he wants. That's the reason why he

0:19:50.119 --> 0:19:53.159
<v Speaker 2>signed here. He has said it repeatedly. He wanted to

0:19:53.240 --> 0:19:56.280
<v Speaker 2>challenge himself to be able to be this guy in

0:19:56.320 --> 0:20:00.040
<v Speaker 2>the postseason for the Dodgers, and so far he he

0:20:00.080 --> 0:20:03.680
<v Speaker 2>has met those challenges. Eight six six nine, eight seven

0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:06.920
<v Speaker 2>two five seventy is the phone number. Blake's now ten

0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:11.000
<v Speaker 2>strikeouts in eight shutout innings helps the Dodgers beat the

0:20:11.000 --> 0:20:14.720
<v Speaker 2>Brewers tonight two to one in Game one of the NLCS.

0:20:15.040 --> 0:20:18.360
<v Speaker 2>Let's go out to Rosemead JP. You're on Dodger Talk

0:20:18.480 --> 0:20:19.600
<v Speaker 2>Live from Milwaukee.

0:20:19.640 --> 0:20:21.880
<v Speaker 5>Hi, JP, Hey, what's up, Dave?

0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:22.400
<v Speaker 18>How you doing?

0:20:22.440 --> 0:20:22.600
<v Speaker 4>Man?

0:20:24.000 --> 0:20:24.160
<v Speaker 11>Hey?

0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:28.240
<v Speaker 2>Couldn't be better? And you know, just feeling good about

0:20:28.280 --> 0:20:31.439
<v Speaker 2>Blake Snell. I knew he he could do this. He

0:20:31.560 --> 0:20:33.760
<v Speaker 2>has done it, and I believe he's got more in

0:20:33.840 --> 0:20:37.840
<v Speaker 2>the tank. And hopefully Dodger fans are appreciating what they're

0:20:37.880 --> 0:20:38.560
<v Speaker 2>seeing now.

0:20:39.760 --> 0:20:42.880
<v Speaker 18>Absolutely. And here's the thing. Do you remember a couple

0:20:42.920 --> 0:20:46.640
<v Speaker 18>of years ago when they put him on on the Originals,

0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:49.080
<v Speaker 18>when he was showing his shoe collection and all that.

0:20:49.440 --> 0:20:51.240
<v Speaker 18>I knew Blake Snell was going to be a Dodger.

0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:54.399
<v Speaker 18>Then he was with the San Diego Padres, and you know,

0:20:54.480 --> 0:20:57.080
<v Speaker 18>I crenched every time we played him against the Padres.

0:20:57.400 --> 0:20:59.359
<v Speaker 18>But when I saw that episode, I knew he was

0:20:59.359 --> 0:21:01.280
<v Speaker 18>going to be a Dodger. And I'm so grateful that

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:04.480
<v Speaker 18>he's on our site now. And man, what a performance

0:21:04.480 --> 0:21:05.040
<v Speaker 18>he did tonight.

0:21:06.520 --> 0:21:10.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he was amazing. And look, he's a fun loving guy.

0:21:10.440 --> 0:21:13.040
<v Speaker 2>In some ways, he's a big kid. He reminds me

0:21:13.080 --> 0:21:15.639
<v Speaker 2>of when I used to cover Shaquille O'Neal. Shaq was

0:21:15.680 --> 0:21:18.879
<v Speaker 2>a big kid off the court and sometimes on the court,

0:21:18.920 --> 0:21:23.280
<v Speaker 2>but when it came down to business, he was locked in.

0:21:23.640 --> 0:21:26.600
<v Speaker 2>And same with Blake and last night at the workout,

0:21:26.760 --> 0:21:28.960
<v Speaker 2>usually Blake will come over and talk to me, but

0:21:29.119 --> 0:21:31.280
<v Speaker 2>he was locked in. He did not want to talk

0:21:31.400 --> 0:21:34.920
<v Speaker 2>last night, and that showed me where his head was at.

0:21:35.119 --> 0:21:40.200
<v Speaker 2>And I've really enjoyed being around him every day now

0:21:40.600 --> 0:21:43.080
<v Speaker 2>compared to just seeing him when the Dodgers played the

0:21:43.119 --> 0:21:47.119
<v Speaker 2>Padres or the Giants. Just to see him when he's

0:21:47.160 --> 0:21:50.720
<v Speaker 2>getting into his five day routine gives you a peek

0:21:50.760 --> 0:21:53.560
<v Speaker 2>into what makes a guy tick and how they're successful

0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:56.560
<v Speaker 2>every fifth day. And I've been privileged to be around

0:21:56.640 --> 0:22:00.800
<v Speaker 2>the Goat himself for the last fourteen years Clay and Kershaw,

0:22:00.880 --> 0:22:03.639
<v Speaker 2>and that's how you know when you see him on

0:22:03.680 --> 0:22:06.080
<v Speaker 2>the mound, what goes into it and how much he cares.

0:22:06.119 --> 0:22:10.520
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, it's been special and I don't see anything

0:22:10.560 --> 0:22:14.840
<v Speaker 2>stopping Snell from continuing to build upon these starts. Thanks

0:22:14.840 --> 0:22:18.000
<v Speaker 2>for the phone call, JP appreciated. Eight sixty six nine

0:22:18.080 --> 0:22:21.280
<v Speaker 2>eight seven two five seventy is the phone number. Now,

0:22:21.640 --> 0:22:25.199
<v Speaker 2>as the eighth inning was ending, I feel like you

0:22:25.680 --> 0:22:29.080
<v Speaker 2>and I and many others were saying leave him in,

0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:33.480
<v Speaker 2>let Snell finish this game, but Dave Roberts had Roki

0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:37.120
<v Speaker 2>Sasaki warming up with that in mind, bringing in Sasaki

0:22:37.160 --> 0:22:42.080
<v Speaker 2>after Snell got the first twenty four outs of the game.

0:22:43.119 --> 0:22:45.119
<v Speaker 2>I would have led him in, left him in to

0:22:45.200 --> 0:22:48.479
<v Speaker 2>finish it out, but obviously Roki's been really good tonight.

0:22:49.560 --> 0:22:50.080
<v Speaker 1>It was not.

0:22:50.480 --> 0:22:54.240
<v Speaker 2>It was not the ideal Sasaki matchup because these Brewers

0:22:54.760 --> 0:22:56.720
<v Speaker 2>don't chase, and a lot of the pitches that he

0:22:56.840 --> 0:22:59.359
<v Speaker 2>was throwing were not appearing as strikes out of the hand.

0:22:59.680 --> 0:23:02.600
<v Speaker 2>They were we were looking like outside the strike zone,

0:23:02.640 --> 0:23:06.080
<v Speaker 2>and that's what gave him problems. Let's head downstairs right

0:23:06.119 --> 0:23:09.480
<v Speaker 2>near right now to hear from Dave Roberts to hear

0:23:09.520 --> 0:23:14.200
<v Speaker 2>what his thought process was and letting Sneill know eight

0:23:14.320 --> 0:23:15.800
<v Speaker 2>shutout innings was enough.

0:23:16.200 --> 0:23:19.040
<v Speaker 19>Otani and trying on two guys that you really need

0:23:19.080 --> 0:23:21.840
<v Speaker 19>and have been both scuffed a little bit, you know,

0:23:21.920 --> 0:23:24.640
<v Speaker 19>not great performances, but show hey got the three walks,

0:23:24.680 --> 0:23:27.200
<v Speaker 19>set up what proved to be the winning run, trying

0:23:27.240 --> 0:23:29.000
<v Speaker 19>did get out of that inning, did close the game out.

0:23:29.800 --> 0:23:33.400
<v Speaker 13>Is this moving in the right direction? Are these positive signs? Absolutely?

0:23:33.920 --> 0:23:36.480
<v Speaker 20>I think obviously it was a tight ball game to

0:23:36.520 --> 0:23:40.359
<v Speaker 20>the end. But I thought offensively we were very good tonight.

0:23:40.720 --> 0:23:42.480
<v Speaker 20>I thought we took good at bats all night long.

0:23:42.520 --> 0:23:45.199
<v Speaker 20>We put the bomb, play, didn't strike out. Obviously, there

0:23:45.200 --> 0:23:48.560
<v Speaker 20>are some crazy things that happened that they weathered some innings,

0:23:48.640 --> 0:23:51.560
<v Speaker 20>But offensively I thought we were great. I thought the

0:23:51.600 --> 0:23:54.159
<v Speaker 20>defense played really well, and to see Blake come in

0:23:54.920 --> 0:23:57.080
<v Speaker 20>and close it out was big for his confidence and

0:23:57.160 --> 0:24:01.040
<v Speaker 20>us going forward. Oh yeah, I thought, sure, he's at

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:01.840
<v Speaker 20>batsal great tonight.

0:24:03.359 --> 0:24:06.080
<v Speaker 13>Babian, Yeah, Dave, what do you see from Rookie in

0:24:06.080 --> 0:24:06.360
<v Speaker 13>the night?

0:24:06.400 --> 0:24:06.640
<v Speaker 21>Thanny?

0:24:06.680 --> 0:24:08.520
<v Speaker 22>Do you think there might have been some carryover just

0:24:08.560 --> 0:24:11.280
<v Speaker 22>from going three innings in Game four of the DS there?

0:24:11.600 --> 0:24:13.960
<v Speaker 20>You know, I don't know he had three days off.

0:24:14.680 --> 0:24:17.679
<v Speaker 20>Everything I heard he felt great and there was some

0:24:17.800 --> 0:24:22.120
<v Speaker 20>near misses, but you know, you walk through guys, and

0:24:22.280 --> 0:24:24.000
<v Speaker 20>so he was just off a little bit. But I

0:24:24.040 --> 0:24:27.320
<v Speaker 20>thought stuff was still good, but just missing. And I

0:24:27.359 --> 0:24:31.119
<v Speaker 20>don't know, you know, if there was carryover from the

0:24:31.320 --> 0:24:34.840
<v Speaker 20>from the three innings, just kind of betting on you know,

0:24:34.880 --> 0:24:38.720
<v Speaker 20>how he's saying he feels, and the coaches and training staff,

0:24:38.800 --> 0:24:41.720
<v Speaker 20>and you know, with threes three days off, I felt good.

0:24:41.560 --> 0:24:44.520
<v Speaker 22>With him and with Blake obviously, see you've seen a

0:24:44.600 --> 0:24:47.480
<v Speaker 22>lot of good postseason pitching performances, but what do you

0:24:47.480 --> 0:24:50.120
<v Speaker 22>think of where do you think Blake stills outing ranks

0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:50.600
<v Speaker 22>among those?

0:24:50.640 --> 0:24:50.960
<v Speaker 13>Tonight?

0:24:51.240 --> 0:24:54.159
<v Speaker 20>This was This was as good as I can remember

0:24:54.160 --> 0:24:57.600
<v Speaker 20>in the postseason. Against a very you know, gritty team,

0:24:57.640 --> 0:25:01.240
<v Speaker 20>puts the ball in play, the change up was the

0:25:01.280 --> 0:25:06.240
<v Speaker 20>pitch of the night. His command was great, and yeah,

0:25:06.280 --> 0:25:08.159
<v Speaker 20>you're not going to see too many performances like that,

0:25:08.200 --> 0:25:11.800
<v Speaker 20>certainly in the postseason. This was this was pretty Special's go.

0:25:11.840 --> 0:25:13.520
<v Speaker 13>Over to the left side, Russell Doc.

0:25:13.560 --> 0:25:15.639
<v Speaker 14>When you're seeing the change up, you know, get so

0:25:15.760 --> 0:25:18.520
<v Speaker 14>much swinging miss as they're a feeling first second inning

0:25:18.560 --> 0:25:21.280
<v Speaker 14>where you know he has the full Marsinal working.

0:25:21.640 --> 0:25:24.480
<v Speaker 20>Yeah, I did, and he just has an ability to

0:25:24.560 --> 0:25:27.080
<v Speaker 20>kind of manipulate the change up within the change up,

0:25:27.160 --> 0:25:30.800
<v Speaker 20>and I thought his command, I thought, you know, his delivery.

0:25:31.320 --> 0:25:34.320
<v Speaker 20>He was just sort of in that zone tonight. And

0:25:34.400 --> 0:25:38.080
<v Speaker 20>so I saw that early on, and you know, had

0:25:38.080 --> 0:25:41.639
<v Speaker 20>no hesitation obviously running up through six through seven and

0:25:41.720 --> 0:25:42.440
<v Speaker 20>through the eighth.

0:25:42.200 --> 0:25:46.280
<v Speaker 13>Inning Anthony second row and then back to Bill.

0:25:47.520 --> 0:25:49.560
<v Speaker 16>Just what is going through your mind in the ninth

0:25:49.600 --> 0:25:51.440
<v Speaker 16>when you know, not that there was ever a large

0:25:51.440 --> 0:25:53.639
<v Speaker 16>margin in this game, but a game that was relatively

0:25:53.680 --> 0:25:55.800
<v Speaker 16>secure suddenly becomes not so much.

0:25:56.480 --> 0:25:58.200
<v Speaker 13>You know that that seem's gonna fight. They're going to

0:25:58.280 --> 0:25:58.840
<v Speaker 13>fight to the end.

0:25:59.160 --> 0:26:02.040
<v Speaker 20>We know we're up again, and you just want to,

0:26:03.080 --> 0:26:06.680
<v Speaker 20>you know, hope, guys make pitches, keep making pitches, and

0:26:06.760 --> 0:26:10.440
<v Speaker 20>you got to give credit to those guys. They took

0:26:10.480 --> 0:26:14.320
<v Speaker 20>the walks, they kept the line moving, and ultimately we

0:26:14.320 --> 0:26:16.800
<v Speaker 20>had to put the ball over the plate and blake.

0:26:17.240 --> 0:26:20.080
<v Speaker 20>You know, fortunately I had a good at bat versus terrain.

0:26:20.800 --> 0:26:24.520
<v Speaker 20>But it's not going to come easy. You know, this

0:26:24.600 --> 0:26:26.440
<v Speaker 20>is going to be a grind. It's going to be tough,

0:26:26.480 --> 0:26:29.000
<v Speaker 20>and you know, no one expects expects it.

0:26:28.960 --> 0:26:30.640
<v Speaker 13>To be Bill.

0:26:32.400 --> 0:26:34.199
<v Speaker 12>I just wonder what you saw on that kind of

0:26:34.200 --> 0:26:36.719
<v Speaker 12>weird double play. Did you figure it out as it

0:26:36.760 --> 0:26:38.600
<v Speaker 12>was going on, or it happened so fast you didn't

0:26:38.600 --> 0:26:39.840
<v Speaker 12>even realize what was happening.

0:26:40.240 --> 0:26:41.119
<v Speaker 13>It happened fast.

0:26:41.560 --> 0:26:45.800
<v Speaker 20>I didn't know he didn't catch it. To be quite honest,

0:26:46.600 --> 0:26:48.840
<v Speaker 20>we go over that rule tail nose the rule. I

0:26:48.880 --> 0:26:50.280
<v Speaker 20>think right there he just had a little bit of

0:26:50.320 --> 0:26:53.919
<v Speaker 20>a brain fart, appreciating that when it does hit the glove,

0:26:54.480 --> 0:26:56.480
<v Speaker 20>it's going to you can tag there. But then he

0:26:56.560 --> 0:26:57.680
<v Speaker 20>tagged it correctly.

0:26:57.800 --> 0:26:59.600
<v Speaker 13>Then saw you know, he.

0:26:59.600 --> 0:27:01.760
<v Speaker 20>Didn't actually didn't went back and that was the mistake.

0:27:02.080 --> 0:27:05.200
<v Speaker 20>But he owned it, and you know, after that, there's

0:27:05.200 --> 0:27:06.280
<v Speaker 20>nothing else you can do about it.

0:27:08.480 --> 0:27:13.560
<v Speaker 22>Fabian, it seemed like even after they reviewed it, you

0:27:13.600 --> 0:27:15.280
<v Speaker 22>sort of went out for an explanation. What sort of

0:27:15.320 --> 0:27:17.159
<v Speaker 22>were you looking to get from the umpires? There was

0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:19.960
<v Speaker 22>it just about who relaid what to wear in terms

0:27:19.960 --> 0:27:20.679
<v Speaker 22>of like THEA.

0:27:21.000 --> 0:27:23.480
<v Speaker 20>I just wanted clarity, Honestly, I didn't know that they

0:27:23.560 --> 0:27:26.160
<v Speaker 20>ruled it a no catch, So I just wanted clarity

0:27:26.160 --> 0:27:28.960
<v Speaker 20>on the whole situation and then kind of making sure

0:27:29.040 --> 0:27:31.879
<v Speaker 20>that they got a couple forceouts, which they did, and

0:27:33.359 --> 0:27:36.280
<v Speaker 20>ultimately those guys and replaying the guys on the field

0:27:36.280 --> 0:27:36.720
<v Speaker 20>got it right.

0:27:36.760 --> 0:27:40.439
<v Speaker 1>They nailed it all right. There's Dave Roberts in the

0:27:40.480 --> 0:27:41.160
<v Speaker 1>interview room.

0:27:41.200 --> 0:27:44.600
<v Speaker 2>I guess nobody else was thinking along with us on

0:27:44.760 --> 0:27:48.160
<v Speaker 2>why he took out Blake's now after one hundred and

0:27:48.200 --> 0:27:52.480
<v Speaker 2>three pitches, eh shutout innings, facing the minimum number of

0:27:52.560 --> 0:27:55.600
<v Speaker 2>batters and going to face the bottom third of the order.

0:27:56.040 --> 0:27:57.720
<v Speaker 1>Look, it's a question to be asked.

0:27:57.760 --> 0:27:59.480
<v Speaker 2>I just want to know what was going through his

0:27:59.560 --> 0:28:02.800
<v Speaker 2>mind or did he have his mind set on Sasaki

0:28:03.000 --> 0:28:05.800
<v Speaker 2>closing out the ninth inning no matter what was happening.

0:28:06.000 --> 0:28:08.840
<v Speaker 1>I feel like that's a fair question to ask. It

0:28:08.920 --> 0:28:09.520
<v Speaker 1>worked out.

0:28:09.920 --> 0:28:12.080
<v Speaker 2>The Dodgers held on for the two to one win,

0:28:12.200 --> 0:28:15.840
<v Speaker 2>but it was a little bit higher stress than what

0:28:16.080 --> 0:28:19.280
<v Speaker 2>many of us thought Blake Snell would have handled in

0:28:19.320 --> 0:28:24.359
<v Speaker 2>the ninth inning. But obviously Dave Roberts knows more about

0:28:24.359 --> 0:28:26.880
<v Speaker 2>his picture and what's going on with him, and what

0:28:26.960 --> 0:28:29.600
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers' plans are for later in this series if

0:28:29.640 --> 0:28:32.480
<v Speaker 2>it goes longer, and what may be ahead for Blake

0:28:32.520 --> 0:28:35.240
<v Speaker 2>Snell in the World Series. If the Dodgers can get

0:28:35.280 --> 0:28:38.920
<v Speaker 2>three more wins eight six, six, nine, eight seven, two five,

0:28:39.040 --> 0:28:42.600
<v Speaker 2>seventy is the phone number David Vase live at American

0:28:42.680 --> 0:28:47.760
<v Speaker 2>Family Field in Milwaukee. After Blake Snell pitches the Dodgers

0:28:48.120 --> 0:28:52.040
<v Speaker 2>to a game one win, and I guess everybody that

0:28:52.120 --> 0:28:54.560
<v Speaker 2>wants to say, yeah, yeah, but he only goes five

0:28:54.600 --> 0:28:57.520
<v Speaker 2>innings or yeah, yeah, he only goes six innings, Well,

0:28:57.560 --> 0:29:00.360
<v Speaker 2>tonight he went eight eight shutout and he probably could

0:29:00.400 --> 0:29:04.040
<v Speaker 2>have finished this game. So that's a moot point as well,

0:29:04.080 --> 0:29:08.360
<v Speaker 2>and has been since that seven inning dominant performance where

0:29:08.840 --> 0:29:11.719
<v Speaker 2>he fought to stay in for the final out of

0:29:11.720 --> 0:29:15.760
<v Speaker 2>that seventh inning back in September against the Phillies. Let's

0:29:15.760 --> 0:29:18.520
<v Speaker 2>go out to West Lake Village. David, You're on Dodger

0:29:18.600 --> 0:29:19.680
<v Speaker 2>Talk Live from Milwaukee.

0:29:19.840 --> 0:29:24.720
<v Speaker 21>Hi, David, Hey, dv thanks a lot for taking my call. Wow,

0:29:25.000 --> 0:29:27.480
<v Speaker 21>what a game. And I'm not gonna apologize to you

0:29:27.560 --> 0:29:31.400
<v Speaker 21>because I was a believer in Snell since twenty twenty. Man,

0:29:31.440 --> 0:29:34.200
<v Speaker 21>when my family and my buddy Dave were at the

0:29:34.200 --> 0:29:38.440
<v Speaker 21>World Series and when Kevin Cash went and got Snell Zilla,

0:29:38.880 --> 0:29:40.520
<v Speaker 21>my buddy Dave and I were hugging each other and

0:29:40.600 --> 0:29:43.120
<v Speaker 21>jumping for joy because we knew we actually had a

0:29:43.200 --> 0:29:46.280
<v Speaker 21>chance to win the game. So that guy is a

0:29:46.320 --> 0:29:48.680
<v Speaker 21>stud And you know what, if he wants to go

0:29:48.680 --> 0:29:52.200
<v Speaker 21>to Cancun in the summer and sip on some tequila,

0:29:52.360 --> 0:29:54.040
<v Speaker 21>or he wants to go to Hawaii and sip on

0:29:54.040 --> 0:29:56.560
<v Speaker 21>some my ties all summer long and come back and

0:29:56.600 --> 0:29:59.080
<v Speaker 21>pitch in August in September, I'm okay with that.

0:29:59.280 --> 0:29:59.880
<v Speaker 5>He deserves that.

0:30:00.400 --> 0:30:04.480
<v Speaker 21>He's amazing, And look, that's.

0:30:04.320 --> 0:30:06.320
<v Speaker 2>Not what he was trying to do. He was actually

0:30:06.360 --> 0:30:09.040
<v Speaker 2>trying to make a great first impression and pushed it

0:30:09.080 --> 0:30:11.720
<v Speaker 2>a little bit too hard as he was getting ready

0:30:11.760 --> 0:30:12.640
<v Speaker 2>for spring training.

0:30:12.720 --> 0:30:14.760
<v Speaker 1>But go ahead, what else you got, David.

0:30:15.120 --> 0:30:15.600
<v Speaker 5>It's great.

0:30:15.840 --> 0:30:18.680
<v Speaker 21>I want to just talk about you're putting a lot

0:30:18.680 --> 0:30:22.280
<v Speaker 21>of the blame and people are on too, and I agree, Looked,

0:30:22.560 --> 0:30:25.840
<v Speaker 21>it's it's about seventy percent his fault. But but Dino

0:30:25.960 --> 0:30:27.040
<v Speaker 21>Evil has a job.

0:30:26.880 --> 0:30:27.560
<v Speaker 12>To do as well.

0:30:27.720 --> 0:30:30.280
<v Speaker 21>And to me, you know, when I was a third

0:30:30.360 --> 0:30:32.320
<v Speaker 21>days coach at West Hill's Baseball, shout out to West

0:30:32.360 --> 0:30:35.280
<v Speaker 21>Hills Baseball. You have to get in that player's ear

0:30:35.320 --> 0:30:37.440
<v Speaker 21>and a second that ball goes to the air, you

0:30:37.560 --> 0:30:40.880
<v Speaker 21>tell you yell tagged. And then when he's on the back,

0:30:41.080 --> 0:30:44.120
<v Speaker 21>when that ball touches the glove, you scream as loud

0:30:44.120 --> 0:30:47.440
<v Speaker 21>as you can go, go, go, go go, and you

0:30:47.560 --> 0:30:47.840
<v Speaker 21>got it.

0:30:48.240 --> 0:30:49.480
<v Speaker 23>Got of getting those players ear.

0:30:49.880 --> 0:30:50.480
<v Speaker 1>He did that.

0:30:50.800 --> 0:30:54.640
<v Speaker 2>He did that where Dino what lost was he was

0:30:54.680 --> 0:30:57.440
<v Speaker 2>so focused on ti Oscar Hernandez that he did in

0:30:57.560 --> 0:30:59.280
<v Speaker 2>direct traffic with Will Smith.

0:30:59.720 --> 0:31:01.360
<v Speaker 1>That's what it appeared like from here.

0:31:01.400 --> 0:31:05.800
<v Speaker 2>But he was telling Taoscar Hernandez to tag, and he

0:31:05.960 --> 0:31:09.520
<v Speaker 2>was telling him to go go go, So thank you. Yeah,

0:31:09.840 --> 0:31:12.160
<v Speaker 2>a little bit different at West Hills Baseball than it

0:31:12.240 --> 0:31:14.960
<v Speaker 2>is in Game one of the NLCS in a major

0:31:15.040 --> 0:31:18.600
<v Speaker 2>league Ballpark's I mean, come on, you can't even compare it.

0:31:18.920 --> 0:31:22.000
<v Speaker 2>What am I supposed to say there? West Hill's baseball,

0:31:22.040 --> 0:31:24.400
<v Speaker 2>Little League baseball compared to the Game one of the

0:31:24.480 --> 0:31:28.200
<v Speaker 2>NLCS with fifty thousand fans in a stadium and you

0:31:28.240 --> 0:31:31.520
<v Speaker 2>have a major league player that should know to tag, well,

0:31:31.560 --> 0:31:34.360
<v Speaker 2>dino Ebel was telling him to do that, and pre

0:31:34.520 --> 0:31:38.080
<v Speaker 2>pitch is what dino Ebol is so good at. With

0:31:38.120 --> 0:31:41.440
<v Speaker 2>that runner at third base, what kind of went sideways?

0:31:41.560 --> 0:31:44.240
<v Speaker 2>Is Will Smith running back to second? He had to

0:31:44.280 --> 0:31:47.360
<v Speaker 2>come to third. If anybody looks at the at the

0:31:47.440 --> 0:31:53.000
<v Speaker 2>left field umpire Chad Fairchild, then things are a little

0:31:53.000 --> 0:31:56.200
<v Speaker 2>bit easier. But I don't Dave Roberts just said ta

0:31:56.280 --> 0:31:59.720
<v Speaker 2>Oscar Hernandez had a brain fart. He did, and you

0:31:59.760 --> 0:32:03.400
<v Speaker 2>know that created the havoc and miscommunication with Will Smith

0:32:03.760 --> 0:32:07.480
<v Speaker 2>going back to second base. Eight six six seven two

0:32:07.560 --> 0:32:10.760
<v Speaker 2>five seventy is the phone number. Dodgers do get the

0:32:10.800 --> 0:32:13.680
<v Speaker 2>winning game one of the NLCS two to one. We

0:32:13.760 --> 0:32:16.200
<v Speaker 2>are going to take a time out when we continue

0:32:16.600 --> 0:32:19.320
<v Speaker 2>more of your phone calls. We have a full border calls.

0:32:19.360 --> 0:32:22.120
<v Speaker 2>We're going to ten o'clock tonight. Plus you'll hear from

0:32:22.160 --> 0:32:28.520
<v Speaker 2>Blake Trenton, who was in some ways just as big

0:32:28.560 --> 0:32:31.480
<v Speaker 2>as anybody else to this game because he found a

0:32:31.480 --> 0:32:34.560
<v Speaker 2>way to get the final out. After Roki Sasaki got

0:32:34.560 --> 0:32:37.400
<v Speaker 2>the first two outs, led a run in, Blake Trenton

0:32:37.480 --> 0:32:41.120
<v Speaker 2>had to come in and put out the rally that

0:32:41.200 --> 0:32:43.680
<v Speaker 2>the Brewers had going there. We'll get into that ninth

0:32:43.680 --> 0:32:46.720
<v Speaker 2>inning as well, after the Dodgers hold on for a

0:32:46.800 --> 0:32:50.960
<v Speaker 2>two to one win in Milwaukee for a one nothing

0:32:51.080 --> 0:32:52.680

0:33:19.640 --> 0:33:22.800
<v Speaker 6>Freeman's went high in the air, right field, drifting back

0:33:22.880 --> 0:33:24.040
<v Speaker 6>Curio on the warning track.

0:33:24.120 --> 0:33:26.680

<v Speaker 2>One, Oh Paul, that just kept gon carrying and carrying

0:33:38.200 --> 0:33:45.680
<v Speaker 2>and carrying out. Freddie Freeman with his first postseason home run,

0:33:45.960 --> 0:33:49.320
<v Speaker 2>gives the Dodgers a one nothing lead in the sixth inning.

0:33:49.840 --> 0:33:51.520
<v Speaker 1>They would load the bases.

0:33:51.560 --> 0:33:54.000
<v Speaker 2>In the top of the ninth inning, Mookie Betts would

0:33:54.080 --> 0:33:57.000
<v Speaker 2>draw a bases loaded walk and that would be the

0:33:57.080 --> 0:33:59.840
<v Speaker 2>difference in the game as the Dodgers hold on for

0:34:00.160 --> 0:34:04.040

<v Speaker 2>in the next game. Daniels Jewelers own the dream. Blake's

0:34:28.160 --> 0:34:32.640
<v Speaker 2>new tonight outstanding. Uh, maybe the best pitched game by

0:34:32.719 --> 0:34:36.600
<v Speaker 2>any pitcher in the postseason this year. He goes eight

0:34:36.760 --> 0:34:41.200
<v Speaker 2>shutout innings, strikes out ten, and faces the minimum number

0:34:41.200 --> 0:34:44.920
<v Speaker 2>of batters because he did pick off Caleb Durbin in

0:34:45.000 --> 0:34:47.560
<v Speaker 2>the third inning after he led off that inning with

0:34:47.640 --> 0:34:51.920
<v Speaker 2>a single, and Blakesnell becomes the first pitcher in postseason

0:34:52.080 --> 0:34:56.520
<v Speaker 2>history with multiple outings of six or more innings and

0:34:56.560 --> 0:35:00.640
<v Speaker 2>one or no hits allowed in a single postseason. He

0:35:00.800 --> 0:35:04.799
<v Speaker 2>joined Zach Wheeler, Max Scherzer, and Anna ball Sanchez. How

0:35:04.800 --> 0:35:08.920
<v Speaker 2>about that in doing so, and those guys did it

0:35:08.960 --> 0:35:13.200
<v Speaker 2>twice in their postseason careers. So Blake Snell is having

0:35:13.239 --> 0:35:17.000
<v Speaker 2>the postseason the Dodgers needed, the postseason of his life,

0:35:17.040 --> 0:35:20.440
<v Speaker 2>and he wants more. We had a chance to catch

0:35:20.560 --> 0:35:23.960
<v Speaker 2>up with snail Zilla. Moments after the final out, Blake,

0:35:24.000 --> 0:35:26.600
<v Speaker 2>how did it feel last night to deliver in such

0:35:26.640 --> 0:35:27.400
<v Speaker 2>a tight game?

0:35:28.080 --> 0:35:30.520
<v Speaker 25>I mean, it feels good. We got we got one win,

0:35:30.680 --> 0:35:33.040
<v Speaker 25>especially here. I mean, this crowd is amazing. It was

0:35:33.080 --> 0:35:34.680
<v Speaker 25>a lot of fun to pitch in front of. So

0:35:35.200 --> 0:35:36.760
<v Speaker 25>I'm to be able to get this one is amazing.

0:35:36.800 --> 0:35:39.600
<v Speaker 25>That team it's a tough team, so I mean, yeah, I.

0:35:39.560 --> 0:35:40.160
<v Speaker 1>Did really good.

0:35:40.360 --> 0:35:43.520
<v Speaker 25>They're tough, they put together good at bats. They kept

0:35:43.560 --> 0:35:45.200
<v Speaker 25>me up all night trying to figure out, you know,

0:35:45.239 --> 0:35:46.719
<v Speaker 25>how do I want to attack, when do I want

0:35:46.719 --> 0:35:47.160
<v Speaker 25>to change?

0:35:47.280 --> 0:35:47.920
<v Speaker 1>Stuff like that.

0:35:48.080 --> 0:35:50.439
<v Speaker 25>So very excited that we were able to get this one,

0:35:50.480 --> 0:35:52.480
<v Speaker 25>and then, you know, look forward to tomorrow.

0:35:52.600 --> 0:35:55.319
<v Speaker 2>When I saw you yesterday, you were already having your

0:35:55.360 --> 0:35:56.359
<v Speaker 2>game phase on.

0:35:56.920 --> 0:35:58.880
<v Speaker 1>It seemed like this was different for you.

0:35:59.320 --> 0:35:59.520
<v Speaker 13>Yeah.

0:35:59.560 --> 0:36:02.320
<v Speaker 25>I mean my whole life I've dreamt at this moment

0:36:02.440 --> 0:36:04.840
<v Speaker 25>and to be able to go, Hey, it was probably

0:36:04.440 --> 0:36:07.200
<v Speaker 25>the best part for me because I've always the seventh

0:36:07.280 --> 0:36:08.840
<v Speaker 25>was pretty special. I've always wanted to be out there

0:36:08.880 --> 0:36:11.520
<v Speaker 25>for God bless America, So to be able to be

0:36:11.520 --> 0:36:13.360
<v Speaker 25>out there for that was special for me. You know,

0:36:13.400 --> 0:36:15.879
<v Speaker 25>I always want more for you. Did you want more

0:36:15.920 --> 0:36:18.360
<v Speaker 25>for yourself? Did you ever think about pushing back on

0:36:18.480 --> 0:36:21.439
<v Speaker 25>Dave taking you out there? Not trust him? He knows

0:36:21.480 --> 0:36:23.680
<v Speaker 25>how bad I want it, But he's the manager of

0:36:23.719 --> 0:36:26.280
<v Speaker 25>the sist team, so we're gonna trust him and keep going.

0:36:26.520 --> 0:36:30.360
<v Speaker 2>Hey, the Dodgers will trust Blake Snell snail Zilla delivering

0:36:30.440 --> 0:36:31.520
<v Speaker 2>stacking those chips.

0:36:31.560 --> 0:36:31.960
<v Speaker 25>Come on.

0:36:33.440 --> 0:36:36.480
<v Speaker 2>There, he is Blake Snell. Hey, you gotta love that.

0:36:36.760 --> 0:36:39.000
<v Speaker 2>He wanted to go deeper into games. He wanted to

0:36:39.000 --> 0:36:41.880
<v Speaker 2>be standing out there for God bless America. He did,

0:36:42.239 --> 0:36:45.080
<v Speaker 2>and he got more eight shutout innings, and he becomes

0:36:45.120 --> 0:36:48.400
<v Speaker 2>the first Dodger pitcher to pitch eight innings in a

0:36:48.440 --> 0:36:53.480
<v Speaker 2>postseason game since Clayton Kershaw. The goat twenty twenty Wildcard

0:36:53.600 --> 0:36:58.400
<v Speaker 2>Series Game two against these Brewers. The Dodgers clinched the series,

0:36:58.480 --> 0:37:00.280
<v Speaker 2>sweeping Milwaukee.

0:36:59.680 --> 0:37:03.080
<v Speaker 1>With the three nothing wins. So I'll let snail Zilla

0:37:03.160 --> 0:37:03.799
<v Speaker 1>know about that.

0:37:03.880 --> 0:37:06.839
<v Speaker 2>He loves to be mentioned in the same sentence as

0:37:06.880 --> 0:37:10.520
<v Speaker 2>Clayton Kershaw. Eight six six nine eight seven, two five

0:37:10.640 --> 0:37:14.800
<v Speaker 2>seventy is the phone number. Let's go out to Redondo Beach. Steve,

0:37:14.960 --> 0:37:17.000
<v Speaker 2>You're on Dodger Talk Live from Milwaukee.

0:37:17.120 --> 0:37:19.879
<v Speaker 11>How you doing, Hey, Thanks Dave for having me on.

0:37:20.600 --> 0:37:23.520
<v Speaker 11>I was looking for the right word about Blake's performance tonight,

0:37:23.520 --> 0:37:26.200
<v Speaker 11>and Freddy said it in his clip. It was a

0:37:26.239 --> 0:37:29.600
<v Speaker 11>magnificent performance. I was even there for Kershaw when he

0:37:29.640 --> 0:37:32.360
<v Speaker 11>had a fifteen strikeout game no hitter. But this is

0:37:32.360 --> 0:37:35.400
<v Speaker 11>a championship series, so it's a whole other level. But

0:37:35.640 --> 0:37:38.840
<v Speaker 11>I know hindsight's twenty twenty, but I feel so strongly

0:37:38.880 --> 0:37:41.600
<v Speaker 11>he should have been left in to pitch the ninth.

0:37:41.719 --> 0:37:43.239
<v Speaker 11>And I know we ended up on the right side

0:37:43.280 --> 0:37:45.840
<v Speaker 11>of that stuff, but at this level, it seems like

0:37:45.880 --> 0:37:48.160
<v Speaker 11>every decision needs to be based on what gives us

0:37:48.200 --> 0:37:51.320
<v Speaker 11>the best opportunity to win. And I know where you stand,

0:37:51.360 --> 0:37:53.479
<v Speaker 11>so I guess I'll now pose this question to Dave

0:37:53.560 --> 0:37:56.680
<v Speaker 11>and all the naysayers out there. I wanted to take

0:37:56.680 --> 0:37:59.480
<v Speaker 11>it to a philosophical level. There was an ancient sage

0:38:00.080 --> 0:38:03.480
<v Speaker 11>named Helll the Elder who said, if not now, then

0:38:03.560 --> 0:38:07.000
<v Speaker 11>when when does it get any more opportune to let

0:38:07.040 --> 0:38:10.919
<v Speaker 11>a guy who's obviously in a zone of perfection get

0:38:10.960 --> 0:38:13.480
<v Speaker 11>that complete game? Because I think he was there and

0:38:13.520 --> 0:38:16.319
<v Speaker 11>there was absolutely no reason to bring Sasaki in.

0:38:17.640 --> 0:38:20.640
<v Speaker 1>You're not alone. You're not alone in that line of thinking, Steve.

0:38:20.680 --> 0:38:24.640
<v Speaker 2>I think in today's baseball everybody gets so caught up

0:38:25.040 --> 0:38:29.120
<v Speaker 2>in the number of pitches and just thinking your way

0:38:29.320 --> 0:38:32.360
<v Speaker 2>out of what is happening right in front of you

0:38:32.960 --> 0:38:36.520
<v Speaker 2>and Roki Sasaki. I'm sure gave Dave Roberts the confidence

0:38:36.600 --> 0:38:39.160
<v Speaker 2>to be able to take Snell out after EH shutout,

0:38:39.160 --> 0:38:41.080
<v Speaker 2>But I agree with you, why not just let him

0:38:41.120 --> 0:38:44.960
<v Speaker 2>get the CG right there. Things were going really smoothly

0:38:45.040 --> 0:38:47.400
<v Speaker 2>for him. And the last Dodger to have a complete

0:38:47.440 --> 0:38:51.799
<v Speaker 2>game was Jose Lima in the postseason, the NLDS Game

0:38:51.840 --> 0:38:54.200
<v Speaker 2>three against the Cardinals. So that's how long it's been

0:38:54.280 --> 0:38:57.920
<v Speaker 2>since two thousand and four, over twenty years, Steve. And

0:38:58.239 --> 0:39:01.000
<v Speaker 2>look at what happened in the Blue Jays game yesterday.

0:39:01.520 --> 0:39:05.320
<v Speaker 2>For whatever reason, the manager there, John Schneider, took Gosman

0:39:05.400 --> 0:39:08.440
<v Speaker 2>out after six innings and seventy six pitches. That was

0:39:08.520 --> 0:39:13.160
<v Speaker 2>ridiculous too. So I don't know what was going on

0:39:13.239 --> 0:39:16.520
<v Speaker 2>and what Dave Roberts and Mark Pryor were seeing, but

0:39:16.960 --> 0:39:20.120
<v Speaker 2>obviously they felt like eight innings was enough.

0:39:20.239 --> 0:39:21.440
<v Speaker 1>But it's risky.

0:39:21.840 --> 0:39:25.480
<v Speaker 2>Let's be honest, it's risky with that bullpen, no matter

0:39:25.719 --> 0:39:29.360
<v Speaker 2>if it's six outs, three outs, nine outs, it's risky.

0:39:31.080 --> 0:39:33.920
<v Speaker 11>Agreed. Yeah, you got to ride the rings that seems

0:39:33.960 --> 0:39:36.399
<v Speaker 11>to be taken into the shore. And at that point

0:39:36.440 --> 0:39:38.920
<v Speaker 11>it probably was smell no.

0:39:38.800 --> 0:39:42.160
<v Speaker 2>Doubt, Steve, I'm with you. But luckily the Dodgers held on.

0:39:42.760 --> 0:39:45.759
<v Speaker 2>Roki Sasaki was able to get two outs and then

0:39:45.840 --> 0:39:48.640
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden, the velocity started to dip.

0:39:48.800 --> 0:39:50.600
<v Speaker 1>Not sure what was happening with him.

0:39:50.640 --> 0:39:53.600
<v Speaker 2>Maybe a little self doubt because the Brewers were not

0:39:53.800 --> 0:39:57.040
<v Speaker 2>chasing his pitches. They're not a team that's going to

0:39:57.120 --> 0:40:00.360
<v Speaker 2>chase And maybe this is not the best match for

0:40:00.440 --> 0:40:04.160
<v Speaker 2>Roki Sazaki, But I'm I think the biggest thing for

0:40:04.280 --> 0:40:06.879
<v Speaker 2>Rokie is that he wasn't close to the strike zone

0:40:06.920 --> 0:40:10.200
<v Speaker 2>when things started to unravel on him. And luckily for

0:40:10.280 --> 0:40:13.239
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers, a couple of breaks went their way. Jake

0:40:13.320 --> 0:40:16.440
<v Speaker 2>Bowers ground rule, double the center field if that ball's

0:40:16.560 --> 0:40:19.280
<v Speaker 2>in play and not over the wall, all of a sudden,

0:40:19.320 --> 0:40:23.319
<v Speaker 2>it's a tie game. Bryce terrang Blake Trenton almost hit

0:40:23.440 --> 0:40:27.400
<v Speaker 2>him and he got out of the way unwisely. Some

0:40:27.560 --> 0:40:30.840
<v Speaker 2>old school or just baseball guys would have said, just

0:40:30.920 --> 0:40:32.920
<v Speaker 2>stand in there, let it hit you.

0:40:34.160 --> 0:40:35.120
<v Speaker 1>Instead, he got.

0:40:34.920 --> 0:40:37.120
<v Speaker 2>Out of the way unwisely and he struck out to

0:40:37.239 --> 0:40:40.520
<v Speaker 2>end the game. So those were a couple of interesting

0:40:40.600 --> 0:40:43.360
<v Speaker 2>things that took place in the ninth inning to allow

0:40:43.400 --> 0:40:46.080
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers to hold on for this two to one win.

0:40:46.520 --> 0:40:49.520
<v Speaker 2>Speaking up, Blake Trning, let's head downstairs to the Dodger

0:40:49.600 --> 0:40:52.360
<v Speaker 2>clubhouse to hear from the guy that got his first

0:40:52.400 --> 0:40:53.680
<v Speaker 2>save this postseason.

0:40:54.200 --> 0:40:56.600
<v Speaker 8>Well prayer first, you know, it's just Rookie's been so

0:40:56.680 --> 0:40:59.080
<v Speaker 8>great for us and to have an opportunity to pick

0:40:59.160 --> 0:41:02.800
<v Speaker 8>him up. Just think God for the opportunity and trusting

0:41:02.840 --> 0:41:05.000
<v Speaker 8>the talent he's given me in a in a stage

0:41:05.040 --> 0:41:08.960
<v Speaker 8>like that, and then just you know, trying to execute

0:41:09.560 --> 0:41:11.440
<v Speaker 8>that team's very well prepared. I feel like I made

0:41:11.440 --> 0:41:15.560
<v Speaker 8>some really good pitches against Wilson Contrarass's brother William Jimi Hee.

0:41:16.000 --> 0:41:19.160
<v Speaker 8>Uh yeah, and he you know, made he hit a

0:41:19.160 --> 0:41:22.880
<v Speaker 8>great at bat and thankfully got trying to swing. So

0:41:23.920 --> 0:41:26.760
<v Speaker 8>uh yeah, it's great win. Smell through amazing. Our offense

0:41:26.800 --> 0:41:28.480
<v Speaker 8>did a great job grinding out some at bats and

0:41:28.719 --> 0:41:31.640
<v Speaker 8>pushing across the runs that we needed. So just a

0:41:31.640 --> 0:41:32.200
<v Speaker 8>good team win.

0:41:32.520 --> 0:41:34.640
<v Speaker 26>Meeting before that strike out, after the walk, what was

0:41:34.680 --> 0:41:36.200
<v Speaker 26>kind of shared with you as to what you all

0:41:36.200 --> 0:41:37.360
<v Speaker 26>were looking to achieve?

0:41:38.520 --> 0:41:41.200
<v Speaker 8>You know what Mark came out. I mean just kind

0:41:41.239 --> 0:41:43.799
<v Speaker 8>of you know what we're looking to do, Maybe a

0:41:43.800 --> 0:41:47.840
<v Speaker 8>couple of back and forth about what pitch selection so

0:41:48.040 --> 0:41:48.879
<v Speaker 8>and it worked out well.

0:41:49.160 --> 0:41:52.960
<v Speaker 6>So when made you get the call for like going

0:41:53.000 --> 0:41:55.080
<v Speaker 6>to the mond like the goal?

0:41:55.200 --> 0:41:58.480
<v Speaker 8>Ye honestly, I don't know, is uh maybe after the

0:41:58.560 --> 0:42:03.239
<v Speaker 8>third batter, I just told me to be ready for contrast,

0:42:04.200 --> 0:42:05.040
<v Speaker 8>time to well up.

0:42:05.560 --> 0:42:09.640
<v Speaker 26>Yeah, yea, you know, a very relentless team. Pitching in

0:42:09.640 --> 0:42:12.960
<v Speaker 26>the postseason is also a different level of intensity. What

0:42:13.080 --> 0:42:16.120
<v Speaker 26>makes them so hard to navigate and game plan against.

0:42:16.480 --> 0:42:19.840
<v Speaker 8>I think they're just well prepared, well coached. They're they're there,

0:42:19.880 --> 0:42:21.759
<v Speaker 8>they know what they're good at, and they don't come

0:42:21.800 --> 0:42:26.480
<v Speaker 8>outside of that lane. So just trying to keep them

0:42:26.480 --> 0:42:28.240
<v Speaker 8>off balance because they're not a team that really strikes

0:42:28.280 --> 0:42:30.719
<v Speaker 8>out much. I think Blake did such a great job

0:42:30.760 --> 0:42:33.759
<v Speaker 8>of just pitching so differently, and his strengths right now

0:42:33.800 --> 0:42:37.440
<v Speaker 8>are just amazing. So his field for the zone kept

0:42:37.520 --> 0:42:40.680
<v Speaker 8>them off balance. And then being alrighty, I mean late

0:42:40.719 --> 0:42:43.040
<v Speaker 8>after they've seen left the all day, I think probably helped.

0:42:43.600 --> 0:42:45.719
<v Speaker 8>But they're just from top of the bottom of one

0:42:45.760 --> 0:42:46.600
<v Speaker 8>of those complete teams.

0:42:46.680 --> 0:42:46.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:42:47.040 --> 0:42:50.440
<v Speaker 3>Obviously, your job description is to come into high leverage

0:42:50.440 --> 0:42:52.480
<v Speaker 3>situations to get that win.

0:42:52.560 --> 0:42:55.960
<v Speaker 14>In that situation, describe what it felt like and what

0:42:56.000 --> 0:42:56.839
<v Speaker 14>it meant to get to win.

0:42:57.840 --> 0:43:00.319
<v Speaker 8>I mean, we have a you know, a goal in mind,

0:43:00.560 --> 0:43:04.480
<v Speaker 8>and I just I want to do my job and

0:43:04.520 --> 0:43:08.320
<v Speaker 8>I want to do it well, and I'm just grateful

0:43:08.360 --> 0:43:08.959
<v Speaker 8>that it worked out.

0:43:08.880 --> 0:43:09.400
<v Speaker 1>That way today.

0:43:09.800 --> 0:43:12.120
<v Speaker 8>A little situation any less stressful because you've been a

0:43:12.200 --> 0:43:13.920
<v Speaker 8>number four, or is that still as nerve wracking?

0:43:14.360 --> 0:43:15.680
<v Speaker 13>No matter what I think.

0:43:15.960 --> 0:43:18.640
<v Speaker 8>At times this year when it hasn't gone well, they

0:43:18.680 --> 0:43:20.600
<v Speaker 8>can they can speed up a little bit in your mind.

0:43:20.680 --> 0:43:22.440
<v Speaker 8>And I think that's the hard part as a professional

0:43:22.560 --> 0:43:25.800
<v Speaker 8>is trying to, you know, bury the thoughts and focus

0:43:25.840 --> 0:43:28.000
<v Speaker 8>on what you're good at. Today I had a lot

0:43:28.000 --> 0:43:29.880
<v Speaker 8>of peace, and I'm grateful to God for that.

0:43:30.120 --> 0:43:30.239
<v Speaker 6>Uh.

0:43:31.200 --> 0:43:34.160
<v Speaker 8>I believe in the power for her. So but today's fun.

0:43:34.560 --> 0:43:36.000
<v Speaker 8>I think We've been putting in a lot of work

0:43:36.480 --> 0:43:38.640
<v Speaker 8>to try to get some things in a better place,

0:43:39.320 --> 0:43:43.160
<v Speaker 8>uh with myself, And today I thought I executed almost

0:43:43.200 --> 0:43:47.879
<v Speaker 8>every pitch. I just will William had a great bat

0:43:47.880 --> 0:43:50.279
<v Speaker 8>against me. I thought he laid out some really good

0:43:50.320 --> 0:43:53.880
<v Speaker 8>pitches and forced him up on that slider and they

0:43:53.920 --> 0:43:54.880
<v Speaker 8>ended up working out well to the.

0:43:54.920 --> 0:43:58.600
<v Speaker 2>Next that that all right. There's Blake Trining. I don't

0:43:58.600 --> 0:44:01.719
<v Speaker 2>think he was alone as people saying prayers during that

0:44:01.800 --> 0:44:05.160
<v Speaker 2>ninth inning. Eight six six nine, eight seven two five

0:44:05.320 --> 0:44:08.359
<v Speaker 2>seventy is the phone number. What I'm sure a lot

0:44:08.400 --> 0:44:10.799
<v Speaker 2>of people were praying during that ninth inning. There is

0:44:10.920 --> 0:44:14.279
<v Speaker 2>no doubt about it. Let's go out to Julian and Southgate.

0:44:14.360 --> 0:44:17.920
<v Speaker 2>You're on Dodger Talk. How you doing, Julian? Were you

0:44:17.960 --> 0:44:19.960
<v Speaker 2>saying prayers Julian during the ninth inning?

0:44:21.600 --> 0:44:23.480
<v Speaker 27>Oh yeah, I pray, I pray, I pray. I play

0:44:23.520 --> 0:44:24.560
<v Speaker 27>every Dodger game, you know.

0:44:25.840 --> 0:44:28.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, how many times? And what inning?

0:44:28.200 --> 0:44:28.359
<v Speaker 13>Oh?

0:44:28.440 --> 0:44:28.960
<v Speaker 5>Three times?

0:44:28.960 --> 0:44:30.279
<v Speaker 27>For three times for good luck?

0:44:31.360 --> 0:44:33.279
<v Speaker 1>Okay, all right, what else you got?

0:44:35.040 --> 0:44:36.760
<v Speaker 27>I was want to say that, you know, the players

0:44:36.760 --> 0:44:38.440
<v Speaker 27>that the players that we signed in Cree agency, the

0:44:38.480 --> 0:44:41.319
<v Speaker 27>players that we treated for they're Bill for October. Shout

0:44:41.360 --> 0:44:44.279
<v Speaker 27>out to Padres for giving us Blake snow too, and yeah,

0:44:44.280 --> 0:44:46.600
<v Speaker 27>these players are Bill Frock Cober like. They don't they

0:44:46.600 --> 0:44:47.280
<v Speaker 27>don't fan away.

0:44:48.320 --> 0:44:51.520
<v Speaker 2>Hey, the Padres had a chance to extend Blake snell

0:44:51.600 --> 0:44:54.360
<v Speaker 2>as last year there before he became a free agent.

0:44:54.840 --> 0:44:58.200
<v Speaker 2>They decided to give that money to Jill Muskgrove. They

0:44:58.239 --> 0:45:01.680
<v Speaker 2>decided to give that money to j Croninworth. They decide

0:45:01.719 --> 0:45:04.480
<v Speaker 2>to give that money to you, Darvish. So in some

0:45:04.600 --> 0:45:07.160
<v Speaker 2>ways you're right, Julian. They let him get away, and

0:45:07.239 --> 0:45:10.359
<v Speaker 2>that two years later he's a Dodger, and he's a

0:45:10.360 --> 0:45:14.200
<v Speaker 2>Dodger for four or five more years after this season.

0:45:14.640 --> 0:45:17.560
<v Speaker 2>Eight six six nine seven two five seventy is the

0:45:17.560 --> 0:45:18.240
<v Speaker 2>phone number.

0:45:18.440 --> 0:45:19.720
<v Speaker 1>Let's go out to Santa Monica.

0:45:19.800 --> 0:45:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Greg, you're on Dodger Talk Live from American Family Field.

0:45:25.280 --> 0:45:28.480
<v Speaker 6>Hey, I just wanted to shout out the pickoff play.

0:45:28.719 --> 0:45:31.879
<v Speaker 6>That sent a huge message. Honestly, Snow was so good

0:45:31.880 --> 0:45:33.560
<v Speaker 6>tonight you probably didn't even need it. He probably would

0:45:33.560 --> 0:45:35.200
<v Speaker 6>have gotten the next guy, but it.

0:45:35.280 --> 0:45:36.120
<v Speaker 1>Sends a message.

0:45:36.200 --> 0:45:39.200
<v Speaker 6>You know, the Brewers are advertised as kind of scrappy,

0:45:39.400 --> 0:45:41.800
<v Speaker 6>small ball. They'll kind of catch you off your guard.

0:45:42.440 --> 0:45:46.000
<v Speaker 6>But the Dodgers their experienced. They not only have the

0:45:46.160 --> 0:45:49.360
<v Speaker 6>talent and the raw horsepower, but they also have the

0:45:49.440 --> 0:45:52.279
<v Speaker 6>poise and the experience, and you're not gonna throw them off.

0:45:52.280 --> 0:45:54.279
<v Speaker 6>If you're gonna get the Dodgers, you gotta play well.

0:45:56.320 --> 0:45:58.839
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Greg, I agree with you, and that goes back

0:45:58.880 --> 0:46:02.520
<v Speaker 2>to the poison that Blake Snell had on the mound

0:46:02.680 --> 0:46:06.840
<v Speaker 2>all night long. He never was rattled, and I agree

0:46:06.880 --> 0:46:09.520
<v Speaker 2>with you, that was huge to pick off Chad Durbin.

0:46:09.640 --> 0:46:12.919
<v Speaker 2>By the way, that's the second straight start Blake Snell

0:46:12.960 --> 0:46:15.480
<v Speaker 2>has picked off a runner. Remember he picked off Brandon

0:46:15.560 --> 0:46:19.080
<v Speaker 2>Marsh trying to steal in Game two of the NLDS,

0:46:19.120 --> 0:46:22.000
<v Speaker 2>and then he picks off Durbin to face the minimum

0:46:22.080 --> 0:46:24.480
<v Speaker 2>number of batters through eighth shutout innings.

0:46:24.480 --> 0:46:25.440
<v Speaker 1>So that was huge.

0:46:25.480 --> 0:46:29.719
<v Speaker 2>And like I said, that fourth inning, after things went

0:46:29.920 --> 0:46:34.040
<v Speaker 2>sideways for the Dodgers on that wild play to end

0:46:34.040 --> 0:46:37.080
<v Speaker 2>the top of the fourth inning, the momentum really could

0:46:37.120 --> 0:46:39.520
<v Speaker 2>have turned into a tidal wave in the bottom half,

0:46:39.560 --> 0:46:44.520
<v Speaker 2>but Blake went back out there, established his fastball, did

0:46:44.520 --> 0:46:48.279
<v Speaker 2>not blink, struck out the first two batters, and you know,

0:46:48.320 --> 0:46:51.880
<v Speaker 2>the momentum was gone. So I believe what Blake Snell

0:46:51.960 --> 0:46:55.080
<v Speaker 2>did tonight was huge. But just his calmness and his poise,

0:46:55.120 --> 0:46:57.680
<v Speaker 2>I think set the tone for the entire game.

0:47:00.080 --> 0:47:02.680
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, exactly, And you know that's going to have a

0:47:02.760 --> 0:47:05.440
<v Speaker 6>lasting effect. Blake Snow won't be on the mount tomorrow,

0:47:06.000 --> 0:47:09.160
<v Speaker 6>but you know, maybe the runners next game are going

0:47:09.239 --> 0:47:11.840
<v Speaker 6>to be thinking twice before they seal again because the Doughters,

0:47:12.080 --> 0:47:13.319
<v Speaker 6>you know, they know what they're trying to do.

0:47:14.200 --> 0:47:16.960
<v Speaker 2>Hey, the biggest thing, Greg is they didn't have any

0:47:17.000 --> 0:47:19.840
<v Speaker 2>base runners to try to steal outside of Durban tonight

0:47:20.000 --> 0:47:22.759
<v Speaker 2>so until the ninth inning. So that's a good way

0:47:22.800 --> 0:47:26.000
<v Speaker 2>to control the running game. Don't let them on the field,

0:47:26.080 --> 0:47:29.080
<v Speaker 2>don't let them on the bases. Thanks for the phone called, Greg,

0:47:29.200 --> 0:47:32.560
<v Speaker 2>appreciate it, and look tomorrow night. I find it hard

0:47:32.600 --> 0:47:35.319
<v Speaker 2>to believe that Yoshi Yamamoto is going to have two

0:47:35.600 --> 0:47:39.480
<v Speaker 2>back to back poor starts. It's coming off one of

0:47:39.480 --> 0:47:42.760
<v Speaker 2>his poorest starts in over a month against the Phillies

0:47:42.800 --> 0:47:46.040
<v Speaker 2>in Game three. I just don't see that happening again tomorrow.

0:47:46.160 --> 0:47:49.440
<v Speaker 2>So the Brewers have got their hands full again against

0:47:49.760 --> 0:47:52.440
<v Speaker 2>one of the best pitchers, maybe the runner up to

0:47:52.560 --> 0:47:55.840
<v Speaker 2>Paul Skeins and the Cy Young race. So it doesn't

0:47:55.880 --> 0:47:59.399
<v Speaker 2>get any easier for Milwaukee moving forward. Let's go out

0:47:59.440 --> 0:48:03.279
<v Speaker 2>to long be Tomah, Doug Crecoryan, Bob, you're on dodgery talk.

0:48:03.280 --> 0:48:04.080
<v Speaker 1>How you doing, Bob?

0:48:05.280 --> 0:48:07.200
<v Speaker 5>Oh, I'm doing great? How about yourself?

0:48:07.239 --> 0:48:07.560
<v Speaker 6>David?

0:48:07.760 --> 0:48:10.480
<v Speaker 2>Hey, David, start during the game or during the ninth

0:48:11.120 --> 0:48:12.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, what you just diving in?

0:48:13.239 --> 0:48:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Bob? You don't want to talk? Huh? You diving right in? Gohead,

0:48:16.320 --> 0:48:17.240
<v Speaker 1>dive right in, Bob.

0:48:18.080 --> 0:48:19.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm so dexcided.

0:48:19.239 --> 0:48:21.040
<v Speaker 5>Okay, David, I'll tell you why.

0:48:21.120 --> 0:48:24.120
<v Speaker 3>Because a lot of people don't know, like the Phillies

0:48:24.400 --> 0:48:27.120
<v Speaker 3>and now Milwaukee, they giving the note they see o

0:48:27.280 --> 0:48:30.400
<v Speaker 3>Tani up there. Let's walk on, Connie but they messing

0:48:30.480 --> 0:48:32.839
<v Speaker 3>with the wrong guy because they've got Mookie Best, one

0:48:32.880 --> 0:48:35.880
<v Speaker 3>of the best eyes in baseball. Man be for the

0:48:35.920 --> 0:48:39.000
<v Speaker 3>last two or three games, what he's been winning by walks,

0:48:39.040 --> 0:48:41.879
<v Speaker 3>you know. So my point is this, they should keep

0:48:41.920 --> 0:48:44.880
<v Speaker 3>Mookie Best hitting number two, which I'm sure they will

0:48:45.040 --> 0:48:47.600
<v Speaker 3>because he has so much great discipline. If you get

0:48:47.600 --> 0:48:49.720
<v Speaker 3>some of the other guys like you know, maybe Pias

0:48:49.880 --> 0:48:52.240
<v Speaker 3>or whatever, he's a good, great player, but they be swinging.

0:48:52.600 --> 0:48:55.479
<v Speaker 3>But this guy has a beautiful eye, and the other

0:48:55.560 --> 0:48:57.520
<v Speaker 3>teams that's all they want to do. Okay, Old Tani

0:48:57.719 --> 0:49:00.120
<v Speaker 3>was Old Tana get the Mookie?

0:49:00.239 --> 0:49:01.080
<v Speaker 18>What do you think about that?

0:49:01.200 --> 0:49:03.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean Pat Murphy kind of set the tone

0:49:03.800 --> 0:49:06.239
<v Speaker 2>for the rest of the series. If first base is

0:49:06.320 --> 0:49:09.000
<v Speaker 2>open and there's a right handed pitcher on the mound,

0:49:09.200 --> 0:49:12.600
<v Speaker 2>he may be holding up the four fingers for Otani

0:49:12.640 --> 0:49:16.160
<v Speaker 2>and Mookie Betts has made opposing managers pay for that,

0:49:16.239 --> 0:49:19.560
<v Speaker 2>going back to last year when Ron Washington did it,

0:49:19.800 --> 0:49:22.920
<v Speaker 2>and now in back to back games he has forced

0:49:22.960 --> 0:49:26.920
<v Speaker 2>in a pivotal run by not chasing. So I'm with you, Bob,

0:49:27.239 --> 0:49:30.240
<v Speaker 2>talk about risky. That's risky with the way Mookie Betts

0:49:30.320 --> 0:49:33.319
<v Speaker 2>is swinging the bat these days. Eight six six nine

0:49:33.600 --> 0:49:37.000
<v Speaker 2>seven two five seventy is the phone number. Dodgers beat

0:49:37.040 --> 0:49:39.880
<v Speaker 2>the Brewers in Game one of the NLCS two to

0:49:39.960 --> 0:49:43.319
<v Speaker 2>one the final score. Let's take a couple of more

0:49:43.360 --> 0:49:46.920
<v Speaker 2>calls before we say good night. Mark and Huntington Beach.

0:49:47.320 --> 0:49:49.360
<v Speaker 2>You're on Dodger Talk Live from Milwaukee.

0:49:49.520 --> 0:49:51.720
<v Speaker 5>Hi, Mark, Hey David, Hey David.

0:49:52.400 --> 0:49:54.680
<v Speaker 23>I was watching the game at my favorite sports barn,

0:49:54.719 --> 0:49:56.880
<v Speaker 23>Honeying Beach is called my place, Bar and Girl. And

0:49:57.440 --> 0:49:59.600
<v Speaker 23>after that play in the fourth, I mean, they had

0:49:59.600 --> 0:50:03.400
<v Speaker 23>a screen up on the TV showing where the oscar

0:50:03.600 --> 0:50:06.400
<v Speaker 23>had actually started running in and then went back to

0:50:06.520 --> 0:50:08.440
<v Speaker 23>tag like, yeah, I thought the ball was going to

0:50:08.480 --> 0:50:11.239
<v Speaker 23>get by, And it's like, well, he should have just

0:50:11.280 --> 0:50:13.400
<v Speaker 23>stayed there. Why would he start running in thinking that

0:50:13.440 --> 0:50:15.399
<v Speaker 23>he wasn't going to catch it, you know? But then

0:50:15.520 --> 0:50:17.560
<v Speaker 23>the other fatal thing. I thought that no one told

0:50:17.640 --> 0:50:20.239
<v Speaker 23>him he slid into home. He didn't know what was

0:50:20.239 --> 0:50:22.759
<v Speaker 23>a force play. I think if he had just run

0:50:22.880 --> 0:50:24.600
<v Speaker 23>like hell, he would have beat the throw.

0:50:24.400 --> 0:50:26.480
<v Speaker 18>In just because you know, you slowed down.

0:50:26.320 --> 0:50:28.360
<v Speaker 23>When he hit a slide compared to running over the base.

0:50:28.640 --> 0:50:29.280
<v Speaker 5>What do you think?

0:50:29.480 --> 0:50:33.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, actually that's what Haesan Kim told Dodger bench coach

0:50:33.840 --> 0:50:37.720
<v Speaker 2>Bob Garrin the reason why he didn't slide to score

0:50:37.920 --> 0:50:41.480
<v Speaker 2>the winning run in Game four the NLDS is because

0:50:41.560 --> 0:50:43.799
<v Speaker 2>of what you just said. He knew it was a

0:50:43.800 --> 0:50:46.080
<v Speaker 2>force play, so he didn't want to slow down and

0:50:46.160 --> 0:50:49.720
<v Speaker 2>ran through home plate. I'm a big advocate of sliding

0:50:49.719 --> 0:50:52.360
<v Speaker 2>at home plate mark because it's a slippery it's the

0:50:52.440 --> 0:50:57.319
<v Speaker 2>slipperiest bass or plate or surface out there. So I'm

0:50:57.360 --> 0:51:01.319
<v Speaker 2>a fan of sliding feet first at home But the

0:51:01.360 --> 0:51:04.440
<v Speaker 2>biggest mistake is what you said. When he had to

0:51:04.480 --> 0:51:09.359
<v Speaker 2>go back to third base, that's when things really went sideways,

0:51:09.640 --> 0:51:13.160
<v Speaker 2>and that's where that's where he got caught. He should

0:51:13.160 --> 0:51:16.040
<v Speaker 2>have been on the bag ready to tag when it's

0:51:16.360 --> 0:51:18.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's a not a no doubter to straightaway

0:51:18.920 --> 0:51:22.640
<v Speaker 2>center field, and I can guarantee you won't see that

0:51:22.719 --> 0:51:23.400
<v Speaker 2>happen again.

0:51:24.600 --> 0:51:26.520
<v Speaker 23>Yeah, I hope not. But you know, I'll give him

0:51:26.520 --> 0:51:28.719
<v Speaker 23>a little defense. He probably thought the ball was caught.

0:51:28.760 --> 0:51:30.600
<v Speaker 23>He probably didn't see it hit the wall not knowing

0:51:30.640 --> 0:51:33.080
<v Speaker 23>it was in play, and he actually thought he actually

0:51:33.120 --> 0:51:35.160
<v Speaker 23>caught it, you know, instead of it bobbling it.

0:51:35.360 --> 0:51:37.120
<v Speaker 5>So I'll gi him a little defense either way.

0:51:37.200 --> 0:51:39.520
<v Speaker 2>You still tag either way, You're still on the bag.

0:51:39.760 --> 0:51:41.719
<v Speaker 2>Even if he caught it clean. Let's say he caught

0:51:41.719 --> 0:51:44.319
<v Speaker 2>it clean, he's got to do what you said, Mark,

0:51:44.320 --> 0:51:46.440
<v Speaker 2>he's got to be on the bag ready to tag.

0:51:46.600 --> 0:51:50.560
<v Speaker 2>But that was not a catch, as we know by

0:51:50.560 --> 0:51:52.720
<v Speaker 2>the rules and what we saw earlier this season.

0:51:54.120 --> 0:51:56.640
<v Speaker 23>Yeah, okay, well better than tomorrow, Lego Dodgers.

0:51:57.600 --> 0:51:59.319
<v Speaker 1>All right, Mark, thank you for the phone call.

0:51:59.680 --> 0:52:03.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, either way, Tae Oscar Hernandez needed to

0:52:03.560 --> 0:52:06.320
<v Speaker 2>be on the third base bag ready to tag.

0:52:06.440 --> 0:52:06.600
<v Speaker 5>Up.

0:52:07.000 --> 0:52:09.760
<v Speaker 2>Turned out the ball was in play after the ball

0:52:09.800 --> 0:52:12.319
<v Speaker 2>came out of Frelick's glove and hit the wall. Now,

0:52:12.360 --> 0:52:14.200
<v Speaker 2>if it hits the wall and goes over the wall,

0:52:14.280 --> 0:52:18.000
<v Speaker 2>it's a grand slam that it's in play. So just

0:52:18.040 --> 0:52:20.600
<v Speaker 2>think about it that way. If Frelick catches the ball,

0:52:20.640 --> 0:52:23.600
<v Speaker 2>it bounces out of his glove and goes over the wall,

0:52:24.080 --> 0:52:26.879
<v Speaker 2>is it a catch. No, it's a home run. It's

0:52:26.880 --> 0:52:30.520
<v Speaker 2>a grand slam for Max Munsey, same idea, except this

0:52:30.640 --> 0:52:33.319
<v Speaker 2>time it bounced into play and he was able to

0:52:33.360 --> 0:52:36.799
<v Speaker 2>catch it on the Kreum eight six six seven two

0:52:36.880 --> 0:52:39.360
<v Speaker 2>five seventy is the phone number. Let's go out to

0:52:39.440 --> 0:52:41.640
<v Speaker 2>j and ply at Delray. I bet they don't teach

0:52:41.680 --> 0:52:43.040
<v Speaker 2>that at West Hills Baseball.

0:52:44.600 --> 0:52:46.400
<v Speaker 24>Hello there, David, how are you?

0:52:47.640 --> 0:52:50.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing great? Were you a Blake Snell, Dowd or Jay?

0:52:50.040 --> 0:52:51.560
<v Speaker 2>Are you calling to apologize?

0:52:51.600 --> 0:52:54.440
<v Speaker 24>Oh? Guess what I am. I am not calling to

0:52:54.520 --> 0:52:58.200
<v Speaker 24>apologize because when I heard we got Blake Snell, I

0:52:58.320 --> 0:53:01.000
<v Speaker 24>was thinking, isn't it isn't it kind of cheating? I mean,

0:53:01.040 --> 0:53:03.279
<v Speaker 24>we win the championship and then we get that guy,

0:53:04.320 --> 0:53:10.800
<v Speaker 24>you know the Lakers, Remember they win a champion and

0:53:10.840 --> 0:53:13.360
<v Speaker 24>then they got James Worthy and I thought, that's not

0:53:13.440 --> 0:53:15.759
<v Speaker 24>how it's supposed to work. So it was like that.

0:53:16.480 --> 0:53:19.399
<v Speaker 24>I do have a question, was do you know evil there?

0:53:19.520 --> 0:53:22.960
<v Speaker 24>Or was somebody shouldn't the third base coach have been

0:53:23.040 --> 0:53:25.479
<v Speaker 24>yelling at Taoskar no go go go?

0:53:25.920 --> 0:53:26.360
<v Speaker 1>He was?

0:53:26.800 --> 0:53:29.600
<v Speaker 26>He was, oh, he was.

0:53:30.600 --> 0:53:30.920
<v Speaker 7>Oh.

0:53:34.719 --> 0:53:37.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well, I mean Taosky, you know.

0:53:37.239 --> 0:53:41.480
<v Speaker 2>And when that happens, Jay, the game gets really fast

0:53:41.520 --> 0:53:44.280
<v Speaker 2>on you. And they got really fast on will Smith,

0:53:44.280 --> 0:53:48.040
<v Speaker 2>they got really fast on ta Oscar Hernandez, and uh,

0:53:48.120 --> 0:53:50.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what happened there, but uh yeah, do

0:53:50.560 --> 0:53:53.480
<v Speaker 2>you know? Ebel was shown on the broadcast that he

0:53:53.600 --> 0:53:56.719
<v Speaker 2>was telling Taoscar go go go like they used to

0:53:56.800 --> 0:53:59.600
<v Speaker 2>chant for morey Willis at the Coliseum, Go Go Go,

0:54:00.360 --> 0:54:01.440
<v Speaker 2>Thank you for the phone call.

0:54:01.600 --> 0:54:01.839
<v Speaker 12>Jay.

0:54:02.280 --> 0:54:05.719
<v Speaker 2>Tomorrow the Dodgers Game two of the NLCS here in

0:54:05.800 --> 0:54:11.279
<v Speaker 2>Milwaukee before Game three back at Dodgers Stadium on Thursday.

0:54:11.719 --> 0:54:14.520
<v Speaker 2>The Dodgers have an opportunity to come back home up

0:54:14.560 --> 0:54:15.960
<v Speaker 2>to zero against the Brewers.

0:54:16.840 --> 0:54:18.240
<v Speaker 1>Yamamotos on the mound.

0:54:18.320 --> 0:54:21.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't see him, like I said, having back to

0:54:21.120 --> 0:54:26.000
<v Speaker 2>back subpar starts, going up against Freddy Peralta, who the

0:54:26.080 --> 0:54:30.560
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers saw earlier this year and scored four runs off

0:54:30.560 --> 0:54:34.040
<v Speaker 2>of him. Like I said, you got to play the games.

0:54:34.080 --> 0:54:36.680
<v Speaker 2>The Brewers are a tough team. They don't make mistakes.

0:54:37.560 --> 0:54:39.480
<v Speaker 2>They are going to try to get on base and

0:54:39.520 --> 0:54:42.840
<v Speaker 2>create havoc and cause havoc. But the Dodgers are in

0:54:42.920 --> 0:54:46.360
<v Speaker 2>a good spot in a good matchup against right hander

0:54:46.400 --> 0:54:47.280
<v Speaker 2>Freddy Peralta.

0:54:47.760 --> 0:54:48.800
<v Speaker 1>Marongo Casino.

0:54:48.920 --> 0:54:52.080
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers on Deck begins at four o'clock tomorrow with first

0:54:52.080 --> 0:54:55.400
<v Speaker 2>pitch at five oh eight with Rick Monday and Stephen

0:54:55.520 --> 0:55:00.200
<v Speaker 2>Nelson on the call from American Family Field in Milwaukee,

0:55:00.560 --> 0:55:03.200
<v Speaker 2>and the Dodgers are in a great spot to come

0:55:03.239 --> 0:55:05.520
<v Speaker 2>back home up two to oh in a best of

0:55:05.719 --> 0:55:11.680
<v Speaker 2>seven series and look the Dodgers. The Dodgers are are

0:55:11.760 --> 0:55:15.239
<v Speaker 2>feeling pretty good. And how about this Tonight's win in

0:55:15.320 --> 0:55:18.120
<v Speaker 2>Game one of the NLCS not only gave the Dodgers

0:55:18.120 --> 0:55:20.520
<v Speaker 2>a one tozero lead in the series, but it's the

0:55:20.560 --> 0:55:24.360
<v Speaker 2>first time the Dodgers beat the Brewers this season, first

0:55:24.400 --> 0:55:28.400
<v Speaker 2>time in seven games. But like we talked about leading

0:55:28.480 --> 0:55:31.360
<v Speaker 2>up to this game, those six games in July was

0:55:31.400 --> 0:55:35.000
<v Speaker 2>a completely different Dodger team. Blake Snell wasn't even pitching

0:55:35.040 --> 0:55:37.680
<v Speaker 2>at that point. Key k was out months he was out,

0:55:38.040 --> 0:55:41.719
<v Speaker 2>Mookie Betts was still in the middle of a horrible

0:55:41.800 --> 0:55:44.520
<v Speaker 2>slump in the first three months of the season. So

0:55:45.000 --> 0:55:48.640
<v Speaker 2>this is a completely different Dodger team than what the

0:55:48.680 --> 0:55:51.840
<v Speaker 2>Brewers saw in July, and they're gonna get more of

0:55:51.880 --> 0:55:55.120
<v Speaker 2>it tomorrow night here in Milwaukee. That'll do it for

0:55:55.200 --> 0:55:58.719
<v Speaker 2>us tonight. Thanks to Colin Ye back at our Burbank Studios,

0:55:59.000 --> 0:56:01.600
