Speaker 6: a day off, back added Tonight's final series before the
Speaker 6: All Star Break as Kyle hurt Is the opener against
Speaker 6: Eduardo Rodriguez and the Arizona Diamondbacks. First pitch at seven
Speaker 6: ten and with more, we head out to the Galloping
Speaker 6: four broadcast booth as we welcome in Tim Nevert and
Speaker 6: Rick Monday.
Speaker 2: Guys, Tim, thanks very much. Another beautiful night here at
Speaker 2: Unicolo Field at Dodgers Stadium for National League action as
Speaker 2: the Diamondbacks come in to take on the Dodgers. Dodgers
Speaker 2: sixty one and thirty three and a season high fourteen
Speaker 2: and a half games above the Diamondbacks and the standings.
Speaker 2: The Dodgers have won sixteen of their last twenty two,
Speaker 2: which has tied the Miami Marlins for the best record
Speaker 2: since mid June. Anytime. The Diamondbacks forty six and forty seven,
Speaker 2: they've lost eleven of the last eighteen. Coming off a
Speaker 2: four game split with San Diego Tonight, and Wardo Rodriguez
Speaker 2: will pitch for Arizona the left. He is seven and
Speaker 2: three with a two and a quarter ERA. Kyle Hurt
Speaker 2: will be the opener. He'll start tonight, make his second
Speaker 2: career start. He has twenty four scoreless outings in thirty
Speaker 2: one appearances. He's three and one on a four five
Speaker 2: five ERA. Why is Kyle Hurt starting? Because show hey
Speaker 2: Otani isn't That is the top story today, the fact
Speaker 2: that Otani is going to skip this start. He's also
Speaker 2: going to skip the All Star Game. He will dh
Speaker 2: these three games this weekend, but he will not be
Speaker 2: participating in the Midsummer Classes.
Speaker 9: No, he will be in the lineup tonight as the
Speaker 9: designated hitter and lead things off. And Dave Robertson asked
Speaker 9: about an hour and a half before a ballgame, what
Speaker 9: is the status of show Hey Otani, and he said, well,
Speaker 9: it's the left knee that's an issue, and it continues
Speaker 9: to swell. There's a build up of fluid. He will
Speaker 9: have the fluid drained on Sunday. They've got it precisely
Speaker 9: figured out. He's not going to fly to the All
Speaker 9: Star Game either. They did not want him getting in
Speaker 9: the airplane with altitude possibly the swelling on top of that.
Speaker 9: So as far as no extra pressure is put on
Speaker 9: that knee, as far as his stress and strain as
Speaker 9: the hitter, Otani will remain in the lineup.
Speaker 2: And the next question is what about after the All
Speaker 2: Star Game? Where does he fit in? Well, Dave roberts
Speaker 2: said he didn't know where he'll slot in just yet.
Speaker 2: In terms of the starting rotation. He will be there
Speaker 2: at the plate leading off and as the DH but
Speaker 2: they can recalibrate the rotation afterward. Because the Dodgers have
Speaker 2: six starters, they've got a lot of flexibility and they
Speaker 2: might put him off a little bit later just to
Speaker 2: give him some extra rush.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's up in here.
Speaker 9: Meanwhile, the Dodgers have the ball games to win, and
Speaker 9: they won seven of the last ten ball games on
Speaker 9: top of it, So a little bit different lineup. Tommy
Speaker 9: Edmund who's really been hitting the ball very well, will
Speaker 9: move up in the lineup. Miguel Rojas will also be
Speaker 9: in the lineup tonight, and Dults and Rushing returns to
Speaker 9: the starting lineup behind the plate.
Speaker 2: So as far as Eduardo Rodriguez goes, he has been
Speaker 2: tough against the Dodgers this year, So the Dodgers have
Speaker 2: to find a way to get some run against them.
Speaker 2: He's only allowed two runs, one of them earned. Where
Speaker 2: do they get their runs against the all star left?
Speaker 9: Well, we're going to find out if the Dodgers have
Speaker 9: been made able to manufacture some runs. In fact, they've
Speaker 9: scored one hundred, make that four hundred and ninety eight,
Speaker 9: they have allowed just three hundred and thirty four. So
Speaker 9: there's a big, big disparity. If you look at Arizona,
Speaker 9: they have allowed more runs than they have scored. But
Speaker 9: this is a new challenge here tonight, and there's no
Speaker 9: question that teams behind the Dodgers, every one of them
Speaker 9: in the Western Division, trying to knock on the door
Speaker 9: and close the gap. And before that's a big gap.
Speaker 2: Fourteen and a half, five and a half out in
Speaker 2: the wild Card for the Diamondbacks, that's their their best
Speaker 2: hope at this point in time. For the Dodgers are
Speaker 2: cruising along here in the National League Western Division at
Speaker 2: Wider Ron Rigez, Kyle Hurt. Those are your starting pitchers
Speaker 2: tonight as we get set for National League Western Division
Speaker 2: battle here at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 6: Tip all right, thank you guys, Dodger fans, get your
Speaker 6: game day meal on at Shaky's Pizza Parlor as order
Speaker 6: your Shaky's pizza.

Speaker 6: Coming up, you're gonna hear from the manager himself, Dave
Speaker 6: Roberts more on this show. He Otani knee being drained
Speaker 6: and what does it mean for the second half of
Speaker 6: the season.
Speaker 7: We'll check in with David Vaz.
Speaker 6: Say we dive deeper to this pitching matchup in this
Speaker 6: series opener now bullpen game for the Dodgers.
Speaker 7: But up next your Otani rewind as.
Speaker 6: We lead you up to Dodgers and Diamondbacks from the Ravine.
Speaker 6: I'm Tim Kase, thanks for being with us, and you're
Speaker 6: back to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: Well, this is Morongo Casino Dodgers on.
Speaker 1: Your home for La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: It's the Dodgers and Diamondbacks on this Friday night, first
Speaker 6: of three from the Ravine. As the Dodgers go with
Speaker 6: Kyle Hurt as their opener and Wardo Rodriguez the venture
Speaker 6: left hander, we'll go for the Snakes first pitch coming
Speaker 6: up at seven ten.
Speaker 1: This is the Otani rewind Well Show.
Speaker 6: Hey Otani at a quiet on Wednesday, he was zero
Speaker 6: for four with a couple of strikeouts, now hitting two
Speaker 6: ninety on this season. Good news is it's a team game.
Speaker 6: The Dodgers won the game four to three thanks to
Speaker 6: Mookie Betts, who had to go ahead RBI single in
Speaker 6: the bottom half of the eighth Indian and afterwards caught
Speaker 6: up with Kears to Watson, Mookie.
Speaker 10: Let's go straight to that. At that you were down
Speaker 10: in the count. You battled though, just brinding to get
Speaker 10: to that ninth pitch and which you ultimately got the result.
Speaker 10: What were you just looking for? What was your approach
Speaker 10: there to get to Senstela?
Speaker 11: Early in account, I was trying to drive it just
Speaker 11: to make sure we got the run in, and once
Speaker 11: I got down, it was just here a battle, put
Speaker 11: it in play and just see what happens. I was
Speaker 11: able to thousand pitches off and I got one that.
Speaker 7: Uh oh, I got one that. Uh.
Speaker 11: I mean, I was able to put a good swing
Speaker 11: on and I'm glad it went fair.
Speaker 7: I hit enough foul balls that at.
Speaker 10: That there's obviously a lot of familiarity there. But is
Speaker 10: there anything you were able to take into your bat
Speaker 10: from what you were looking for, whether it's from Tommy
Speaker 10: or even Freddie who were in front of you tonight.
Speaker 7: No, I mean him.
Speaker 11: I faced him a bunch of times, but out of
Speaker 11: the bullpen, you know, it's a little different, and so
Speaker 11: he the way he pitches a little different. So that's
Speaker 11: really my first time facing him out of the thin,
Speaker 11: but I mean it was really just kind of being
Speaker 11: in competition and just playing.
Speaker 10: Last night was a tough loss. Well, a lot of
Speaker 10: today was about turning the page with the row Ki Sasaki.
Speaker 10: How did you see him just grind through this outing
Speaker 10: but really get back on track after having two on
Speaker 10: there in the fourth inning.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that was that was huge. You know, he had
Speaker 7: a couple of stops.
Speaker 11: You know, our really in the game. I mean, it's
Speaker 11: gonna gonna happen. You know, he's still working. I mean,
Speaker 11: obviously we see what he can do, and we're all
Speaker 11: on his team. We're fighting for him, and I mean
Speaker 11: he gave us a great outing today, you know, letting
Speaker 11: him to score three.
Speaker 7: I mean we got to be able to score.
Speaker 11: More than three runs, you know, as this offense, and
Speaker 11: so he did a great job grinding through it, and uh,
Speaker 11: you know, fortunately got the win.
Speaker 7: You guys were able to support him with that in
Speaker 7: the end.
Speaker 10: Mookie, congratulations on this win tonight and the win on
Speaker 10: the series.
Speaker 12: Thank you.
Speaker 7: All right, there's Karris to watch it with.
Speaker 6: Mookie Betts after his go ahead single of the eighth
Speaker 6: inning gave the Dodgers a four to three win and
Speaker 6: his series win against the Rockies. Dodgers Baseball's brought to

Speaker 6: Hey Otani on the mound, he is gonna sit it
Speaker 6: out the rest of the way till the All Star Break.
Speaker 6: He will be in the lineup as a designated here
Speaker 6: or on more on that for the manager Dave Roberts.
Speaker 7: In his second first pitch coming up at seven ten.
Speaker 1: He's the LA Dodgers Injury.
Speaker 6: Report presented by UCLA Healthy, Official medical partner of the
Speaker 6: Los Angeles Dodgers Well show. Hay Otani has got some
Speaker 6: inflammation in his left knee. It's gonna have it drained
Speaker 6: over the All Star break. That means he is not
Speaker 6: going to Philadelphia and will not play in the Midsummer Classic.
Speaker 6: But again he will designate be the designated hitter for
Speaker 6: the Dodgers at least tonight and tomorrow.
Speaker 7: We'll see about Sunday.
Speaker 6: Will Smith's still on the IL at the neckle inflammation
Speaker 6: and Blake trying it on the IL at the right
Speaker 6: elbow inflammation. Key k Hernandez doing baseball activities. That is
Speaker 6: certainly a good sign. He is still on the sixty
Speaker 6: day IL for another three weeks. Tyler Glass now on
Speaker 6: the IL, Blake Snell recovering from elbow surgery.
Speaker 7: He is throwing today. That is good news. And when
Speaker 7: Diaz trending in the right direction.
Speaker 6: He has thrown multiple times and in sing games, so
Speaker 6: he is trending in a return after the All Star break.
Speaker 7: Lennon Nax in Triple A Oklahoma City on a rehab.
Speaker 6: Is Simon Bank, Aspirius, Gavin Stone, Bruce dar Garatterle all
Speaker 6: out right now because of injuries.
Speaker 7: All right, let's find out more about show.
Speaker 6: Hey, o Tani the left knee as we check in
Speaker 6: with the Dodger Skipper anything else?
Speaker 12: Questions for Dave Dave? Can you just describe Dave? Can
Speaker 12: you talk about the pressure in.
Speaker 1: The dugouts with Dave.
Speaker 5: Roberts what took place for those time When did you
Speaker 5: know that you want to be able to make the
Speaker 5: start tonight?
Speaker 12: I found out yesterday morning.
Speaker 13: Kind of talking through with our guys show. Hey, you know,
Speaker 13: he's been managing this quite well, the knee, and so
Speaker 13: if if there's a chance that we could kind of
Speaker 13: be proactive and get it drained and do whatever we
Speaker 13: need to do to kind of try to manage it,
Speaker 13: and along with the rest for the All Star Break,
Speaker 13: we were going to do that, and so to not
Speaker 13: put any more stress on it tonight, you know, throwing
Speaker 13: a hundred pitches to our pitching is in a good
Speaker 13: spot coming off and off day. We've got the four
Speaker 13: days for the break, so everything lined up, which made
Speaker 13: sense for all of us.
Speaker 12: What does this mean for the second half when you
Speaker 12: pitching it. Does it allow him.
Speaker 13: To possibly even be available for the first series of
Speaker 13: New York don't know.
Speaker 12: I don't. It's not going to change anything for the
Speaker 12: second half.
Speaker 13: As far as pitching, I'm not sure where he's going
Speaker 13: to be slotted in after the break. So that's something
Speaker 13: that we're going to talk through. We have plenty of
Speaker 13: time to talk through that. But you know that's more
Speaker 13: opponent driven and kind of all that stuff looking out
Speaker 13: what makes sense.
Speaker 12: So I can't answer that right now.
Speaker 13: But as far as like overarching, I don't think it
Speaker 13: affects the second half pitching.
Speaker 5: We're getting the knee drain, having continue.
Speaker 13: To swell up on him a little bit a little bit,
Speaker 13: but obviously the way he's swinging the bat has a
Speaker 13: really affected performance. We have certainly kurtailed the stealing bases,
Speaker 13: but he feels good obviously, and he's going to be
Speaker 13: dhing the next three games.
Speaker 14: Sort of new incidents.
Speaker 12: It will be more no this is just more of
Speaker 12: like there wasn't.
Speaker 13: It was just more of, Okay, if we have a
Speaker 13: potential opportunity to you know, nip this, let's do it
Speaker 13: and let's not try to add to it. So that's
Speaker 13: why how we came out of Wednesday's game with the pitching.
Speaker 13: We have enough pitching to cover and not take more
Speaker 13: of a toll going into the All Star break was
Speaker 13: sort of the thought the conversation, and it just made
Speaker 13: sense to everyone.
Speaker 7: All Right, there's a manager.
Speaker 6: Dave Roberts kind of been telling us more that we
Speaker 6: find out about show his left knee gonna have a
Speaker 6: drain on Sunday. Sounds like after the game and after
Speaker 6: the final game of this series against the Diamondbacks.
Speaker 7: So that is good news and.
Speaker 6: We'll see how it affects him making his next start
Speaker 6: after the All Star Break. Well, we continue here. I'm
Speaker 6: Wrongo Casino Dodgers on deck. We'll check in with David
Speaker 6: Vassa leads up to first pitch Dodgers and Diamondbacks of
Speaker 6: Tim Kates' is the back to back World Series Champion
Speaker 6: Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck,
Speaker 3: on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 6: He's the Dodgers and Diamondbacks on this Friday night, Dodgers
Speaker 6: going with a bullpen game and Warno rod Riguez on
Speaker 6: the mound for the Snakes first pitch coming up at
Speaker 6: seven to ten. Dodgers Baseball brought to you by Al Poto,
Speaker 6: born in La and made for your game day. L
Speaker 6: Poto brings authentic Mexican style tomato, sauces, sauces and hot
Speaker 6: sauces right to your plate every single time. El Poto Gourmet.
Speaker 7: And McKim.
Speaker 1: Joining Tim Kates on deck.
Speaker 5: I accept everybody for who they are.
Speaker 1: This is Dodger insider David Bassi.
Speaker 6: All right, DV the big story showy Otani not getting
Speaker 6: the start tonight on the mound, but is in the
Speaker 6: lineup as a designated hit Explain what's going on here?
Speaker 5: Yeah, Dave Roberts went through the timeline. You heard it
Speaker 5: earlier today. He found out yesterday o'tanni would not be
Speaker 5: able to make the start. And look, this is something
Speaker 5: that Dodgers had been pretty transparent about that they're going
Speaker 5: to have to manage the left knee of sho Heyotani.
Speaker 5: The rest of the season. Dave Roberts was pretty candid
Speaker 5: when he said, I would say a month ago that
Speaker 5: it's not behind him and they are going to have
Speaker 5: to manage it moving forward. They managed it before his
Speaker 5: last start where they pushed him back a couple of days,
Speaker 5: and now this it makes a lot of sense. This
Speaker 5: left knee has been problematic for Otani. It's his land leg,
Speaker 5: and I thought it also is very transparent that Dave
Speaker 5: Roberts said that O'tani is going to have his left
Speaker 5: knee drained on Sunday, which probably means he's not even
Speaker 5: going to be in the starting lineup. He's missing the
Speaker 5: All Star Game, and he's pretty confident that he'll be
Speaker 5: able to pitch some point on the next road trip
Speaker 5: that goes from the Bronx to Philadelphia to Queens, New York.
Speaker 6: David has brought to you by a Ford Summer sales event.
Speaker 6: Now don't wait a hurry in for their best offers
Speaker 6: of the year for the official vehicle of Major League Baseball.
Speaker 6: All right, David Key k Hernandez a name we haven't
Speaker 6: heard of in a long time because of the injury.
Speaker 6: But he's progressing pretty good, isn't he.
Speaker 5: He really is. I mean, he has taken off on
Speaker 5: this homestand when we first saw him the first day here,
Speaker 5: he took batting practice outside for the first time, and
Speaker 5: now he's giving us a timeline on his return.
Speaker 4: I mean, for the most part throughout my career when
Speaker 4: it hasn't been a surgical thing, I'm a quick healer,
Speaker 4: so not necessarily surprised on that side of things. Never
Speaker 4: done an oblique before, so I really wasn't sure what
Speaker 4: to expect. But I think a lot of times with injuries,
Speaker 4: it's about more mental than anything else. And the day
Speaker 4: it happened, they told me potentially closer to three months,
Speaker 4: and I've put my personal goal to be back before
Speaker 4: August first, and it seems like it's gonna happen. So
Speaker 4: I just came in every day really focused on what
Speaker 4: I needed to do, and that's kind of how I
Speaker 4: spend my time, and it went really fast, even though
Speaker 4: it's going to be about two months when I get back.
Speaker 12: But I don't know.
Speaker 4: Everything happens for a reason, and I have a family
Speaker 4: at home that I got to spend more time with
Speaker 4: and stayed in good spirits. Then try to be the
Speaker 4: best teammate that I can well, I can't help the
Speaker 4: team on the field.
Speaker 13: So.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I feel good. Obviously, I'm one swing
Speaker 4: away from having a setback. As of now, everything's progressing
Speaker 4: nicely and if.
Speaker 7: If everything goes put.
Speaker 4: In a plan, goal is to be active in the
Speaker 4: first homestand a second half.
Speaker 5: So that would be the first home stand of the
Speaker 5: second half. That would be July twenty eighth against the Mariners.
Speaker 5: The Dodgers, after a nine game road trip, will return
Speaker 5: home at the end of July, Tim, and they'll have
Speaker 5: a six game homestand against the Mariners in Red Sox.
Speaker 5: So that's unbelievable news to have keyk Hernandez coming back,
Speaker 5: on top of the fact that the Dodgers will be
Speaker 5: getting back Blakesnell and Edwin Diaz around that time as well.
Speaker 6: Speaking of pitching, you look at what Justin Robleski has
Speaker 6: done this first half of the season. The guy should
Speaker 6: be an All Star. Wasn't initially selected. Could he still
Speaker 6: possibly be going to Philadelphia in a couple of days.
Speaker 5: He could be, But I don't know, Tim, It's starting
Speaker 5: to get pretty slim as far as the chances go.
Speaker 5: Yamamoto's pitching tomorrow. We haven't heard whether or not Yam
Speaker 5: is going to be used on Tuesday. He hasn't been
Speaker 5: able to pitch in any of the two previous All
Speaker 5: Star Games he was selected to, so I'm sure he
Speaker 5: wants to. But is it something that Dodgers want him
Speaker 5: to do. I don't know. So I as Zach Wheeler,
Speaker 5: if he gets named he can't pitch, He's pitching on Sunday,
Speaker 5: so I would say the door is a crack open
Speaker 5: right now.
Speaker 6: All right, Well, hopefully the crack opens up and he
Speaker 6: can get on a plane to.
Speaker 7: Philadelphia for the All Star Game on Tuesday.
Speaker 6: No doubt he deserves it, all right, David, We appreciate it.
Speaker 6: Check Dave out on Sports and at LA Tonight. We'll
Speaker 6: continue here on Wrongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, and when
Speaker 6: we do, we'll dive deeper to this pitching matchup. We'll
Speaker 6: get your Dodgers magical moment and we'll check you in
Speaker 6: with Charlie Steiner leads up to Dodgers and Diamondbacks on

Speaker 6: League by final of six to three. That Hofey magical

Speaker 6: treasure for nearly one hundred years. Offfey hot Dogs Local
Speaker 6: and so great way we could toe you here on Morongo.
Speaker 7: Casino Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 6: We will check in with Charlie Steiner leading you up
Speaker 6: to first pitch.
Speaker 7: Dodgers and Diamondbacks.
Speaker 6: I'm Tim Kates is the back to back World Series
Speaker 6: champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, on your home
Speaker 1: for the Blue all season long.
Speaker 6: It's the Dodgers and Arizona Diamondbacks. As they start a
Speaker 6: three games set from the Ravine. Kyle Hurt will be
Speaker 6: the opener, and what is a bullpen game now for
Speaker 6: the Dodgers, no show hey O Tani and Water Rodriguez,
Speaker 6: the left hander will go for the Snakes time own
Speaker 6: for the Verizon startup as we are thirty four minutes
Speaker 6: away from the start of the game. Now, Verizon, you
Speaker 6: can lock in that low price for three years so
Speaker 6: you can save big. Visit your So Cal Verizon store
Speaker 6: today we welcome in Charlie Steiner.
Speaker 8: All right, Tim, this is game number ninety five and
Speaker 8: it's the one hundredth day of the season that the
Speaker 8: Dodgers have been in first place at sixty one and
Speaker 8: thirty three or season high twenty eight over five hundred,
Speaker 8: facing and Arizona Diamondbacks ball club a game under five
Speaker 8: hundred like the San Diego Padres, fourteen and a half
Speaker 8: behind the Dodgers. But one of the big story today
Speaker 8: is who's not playing show Heyo Tony scratched from the
Speaker 8: start as a picture, he will still go on as
Speaker 8: a DH. He will have his knee attended to during
Speaker 8: the All Star break. What's the big picture you see
Speaker 8: and feel about.
Speaker 9: All of this, well, Charlie, it's a good point.
Speaker 1: We all.
Speaker 9: We found out this afternoon Dave Robertson telling the media
Speaker 9: about an hour and a half ago that they decided
Speaker 9: yesterday morning that did they make contact back and forth
Speaker 9: with the physicians and with the trainers in with Otani
Speaker 9: as well in trying to figure out what was the
Speaker 9: best for show, Hey, what was the best for the team.
Speaker 9: And what they decided was, look, let's not put any
Speaker 9: more added pressure on the left knee. That's the problematic knee,
Speaker 9: that's the landing leg if he is pitching, So there
Speaker 9: has been swelling. He's going to continue getting treatment. They
Speaker 9: suggested to try and make a stolen base attempt at
Speaker 9: least right now.
Speaker 12: And they also.
Speaker 9: Disclose that he will have the knee drain from the
Speaker 9: fluid as a result of the inflammation on Sunday morning.
Speaker 9: He will not make the trip to Philadelphia. They did
Speaker 9: not want him in an airplane and really have maybe
Speaker 9: force swelling as a result of that. So for Shoeo Tani,
Speaker 9: he says he's good to go. Then, as you mentioned,
Speaker 9: he's the DH and we'll lead it off tonight.
Speaker 8: Be you sure, Karen, hit you know Otani being scratched
Speaker 8: from the All Star Game, it may well open the
Speaker 8: door for teammate Trusin Robleski.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I might. I think that everybody's kind of holding
Speaker 9: the breath to see if that is going to happen.
Speaker 9: Dave Roberts is not going to talk openly about conversations
Speaker 9: he's having with Major League Baseball, but I'm sure that
Speaker 9: that question has been asked a number of times. The
Speaker 9: other part, too, is that which kind of looks at
Speaker 9: the rosters very closely and see what's going to be happening.
Speaker 9: They have to also get updates from the opposing teams
Speaker 9: all around Major League Baseball. In the National League, Which
Speaker 9: of the starting pitchers that have been named to the
Speaker 9: All Star team are even going to go to Philadelphia?
Speaker 9: Would they even be available to pitch in Philadelphia, in
Speaker 9: particular with starting pitchers. So it's still up in air,
Speaker 9: and hopefully he's going to be representing the Dodgers. The
Speaker 9: numbers are certainly indicative of the fact that he should
Speaker 9: be in serious consideration.
Speaker 8: All right, So here's question. I really don't have any idea.
Speaker 8: How much say does a manager have in adding the
Speaker 8: last couple of players or MLB. Are they in concert
Speaker 8: with one another? How does that play out?
Speaker 9: I don't know. Is it something like the WBC that
Speaker 9: we see in the World Baseball Classic where different teams
Speaker 9: have said, look, if you're going to use my people,
Speaker 9: here's how you're going to use them, and you will
Speaker 9: not use them X number of innings over whatever number
Speaker 9: they come up with. Or are they going to be
Speaker 9: using as a pinch hitter or they using as a
Speaker 9: starting outfielder or infielder if the guy plays multiple positions.
Speaker 9: Don't really know behind the scenes what's going to happen.
Speaker 9: But Rubeski just on the numbers alone, if he's not
Speaker 9: on it, he got snubbed.
Speaker 8: And it's almost inconceivable now scratch almost it's inconceivable that
Speaker 8: he would be snubbed by Doc.
Speaker 9: Yeah, what the question is does Doc have the final say?
Speaker 9: That is a big question that we're going to be
Speaker 9: facing with. And we don't know how many starting pitchers
Speaker 9: have been named to the All Star team for the
Speaker 9: National League will actually be available, even not just to start,
Speaker 9: but even make an appearance, And we're going to find
Speaker 9: out over the next few days.
Speaker 8: So it's interesting. We're not going to see Otani pitch
Speaker 8: for a while. What a while means we won't know
Speaker 8: until he starts pitching again. But you know, he had
Speaker 8: the second lowest er in Dodger history minimum ten starts,
Speaker 8: only behind Don Drysdale in nineteen sixty eight. Well, a
Speaker 8: one thirty seven er. So he's been nothing but great
Speaker 8: as a pitcher and not too bad a hitter either,
Speaker 8: offensively two ninety twenty home runs, fifty six RBIs and
Speaker 8: a four h five on base percentage, so he could
Speaker 8: still hit, but he won't be pitching tonight or for
Speaker 8: the foreseeable future. And for the Diamondbacks and Dwardo Rodriguez
Speaker 8: goes for them, and he's had a terrific year. After
Speaker 8: eleven seasons in the big leagues, he's finally making his
Speaker 8: first All Star appearance. It's going to be a bullpen
Speaker 8: game for the Dodgers tonight. Kyle Hurt will be the opener.
Speaker 9: He's going to be the opener, and the Dodgers have
Speaker 9: to figure out Rodriguez. As you mentioned, well, the numbers
Speaker 9: are not overpowering, boh, they're good seven and three. What
Speaker 9: he does he gets ahead and counts, it's only one
Speaker 9: thirty three batting average against the lefty. The Dodgers have
Speaker 9: to figure out how they're going to do it. Nobody
Speaker 9: in the recent pass has been able to do it.
Speaker 9: Two runs or less in eleven of his last thirteen
Speaker 9: games as always allowed.
Speaker 8: Last five starts in the ERF one fifty three, and'll
Speaker 8: welcome home to Nolan Arenado, who is six hits away
Speaker 8: from two thousand. He will become the sixth player active
Speaker 8: with two thousand hits, joining Manny Mitchado, Paul Goldsfitt, Jose
Speaker 8: al Tuove, Freddie Freeman, and Andrew McCutcheon if McCutcheon is
Speaker 8: still playing. Dodgers and Diamondbacks first of three coming up.
Speaker 7: All right, thank you, Charlie.

Speaker 6: three before the All Star break show. Eotani scratched a
Speaker 6: starting pitcher, but still in there as a designated hitter.
Speaker 6: Kyle Hurt will get the start what is now bullpen game.
Speaker 6: More on that coming up. Dodgers Baseball is brought to

Speaker 3: D and now what will likely be vast fielding insults
Speaker 3: from a Dodger player.
Speaker 7: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 1: This is high and tight.
Speaker 5: We're here with the man that won the home run
Speaker 5: Derby back in twenty twenty four. That's the one and
Speaker 5: only Tioscar Hernandez. By the way, as long as Tioscar
Speaker 5: Hernandez has been here, home run Derby, All Star and
Speaker 5: two championships. So Tao, thanks a lot for the time.
Speaker 5: Always great to be with you.
Speaker 14: Thank you, thank you. For having me. It's always great
Speaker 14: to hear those achievement silence my time here. Yeah the Dodgers.
Speaker 5: Okay, so none of your teammates are participating in the
Speaker 5: home run Derby, but your coach is throwing to Bryce
Speaker 5: Harper Dino Ebel. Why is he so good at helping
Speaker 5: guys win the home run Derby?
Speaker 14: I mean it feels like he went with me with
Speaker 14: me in twenty four. Last year he went with Shwarver. Yeah,
Speaker 14: for the Tidebreaker, I think in the All Star Game.
Speaker 14: So it seems like every time he throws, that player
Speaker 14: is winning the derby. So it's not a not about
Speaker 14: by Harper picking of Dino to throw in the derby.
Speaker 14: So hopefully Dina can win it, even though Harper have
Speaker 14: to win it.
Speaker 5: So since you know how to do it, you want it.
Speaker 5: What is the key to winning the home run Derby?
Speaker 14: Just you know, just turning to be simple. It's not
Speaker 14: not that hard to hit the ball out of the
Speaker 14: out of the park, especially if you have power. Just
Speaker 14: knowing yourself, you don't have some swinging hard controlling the moment,
Speaker 14: it's gonna be a key and not over swinging. So
Speaker 14: if they do that, they're gonna win.
Speaker 5: How tiring does it get? How much does it take
Speaker 5: out of you?
Speaker 14: For me, it was, you know, not bad. I'm used
Speaker 14: to swim a lot practice in the cage. Like today,
Speaker 14: I'm most sweating because, like the swingers, my routine. But
Speaker 14: it gets to you the next day. Your body feels
Speaker 14: really tired, soor farts that you've never thought it was
Speaker 14: gonna be sore because of that. But if you'll prepare,
Speaker 14: if you're ready, especially now that most of the players
Speaker 14: participated before so they know what they have to do,
Speaker 14: they make some adjustment there that I think it should
Speaker 14: be better for the players not to feel like really
Speaker 14: sore or tired at the end.
Speaker 5: Now that he's not hanging around, I think he wanted
Speaker 5: to hear you say something good about him. You are
Speaker 5: Andy Poe has his campaign manager, and this smile from
Speaker 5: ta Oscar Hernandez helped the fans get po Haz to
Speaker 5: be a starter out there. How excited are you, Frandy?
Speaker 14: I mean really happy. He's been putting a lot of
Speaker 14: hard work the past three years. Last year he was
Speaker 14: a little disappointing because I think everybody feel like he
Speaker 14: has the chance over the serve to be in the
Speaker 14: All Star Game last year he wasn't selected, but I
Speaker 14: think that make him putting more work so he have
Speaker 14: the season that he's having now. And you know he
Speaker 14: deserves to be there. He's a star, He's a superstar.
Speaker 14: He helps this team win the CHAMPI Benji last year,
Speaker 14: So happy for him, for his wife, so they can
Speaker 14: get the chance to celebrate all those things that he
Speaker 14: has done the baseball field. So thank you for one
Speaker 14: that votes for him and make him no stuff.
Speaker 5: Hey there, he is the campaign manager for Andy pater
Speaker 5: Has thanks a lot for the time tale. I know

Speaker 7: To you by your Toyota Dealers.
Speaker 6: We make it easy and Wardo Rodriguez on the mound
Speaker 6: for the Snakes seven and three at the two to
Speaker 6: twenty five ERA.
Speaker 7: Thirty thirty three year old left hander.
Speaker 6: Out of Venezuela is in his eleventh season already in
Speaker 6: the Big League's Red Sox Tigers, and that was thirty
Speaker 6: year with Arizona.
Speaker 7: He earned his first All Star nod in.
Speaker 6: His eleventh season in the big leagues, making his nineteen
Speaker 6: start this year. The Diamondbacks are thirteen and three in
Speaker 6: his sixteen starts before that last time out six innings,
Speaker 6: two runs, five hits, three strikeouts on a loss to
Speaker 6: the Brewers. He ranks amongst qualified National League starters in
Speaker 6: ERA second. He's also tied for second in runs allowed,
Speaker 6: with only twenty nine runs. He tossed the team leading
Speaker 6: eleventh quality start last time out against the Brewers six innings,
Speaker 6: two runs, five hits, three strikeouts and a loss to Milwaukee.
Speaker 6: Dodgers have seen him twice this season, opening Weekend than
Speaker 6: in Phoenix last month. Both outings, he allowed just one
Speaker 6: earned run but got a no decision both times out
Speaker 6: show Hey Otani was scheduled to get the start, but
Speaker 6: he was scratched because of inflammation in his left knee.
Speaker 6: That means Kyle Hurt instead will make his second career
Speaker 6: start tonight. His first was April sixteenth, twenty twenty four,
Speaker 6: a long time ago, against the Washington Nationals. It's been
Speaker 6: a key part of the Dodgers bullpen this season. The
Speaker 6: southern California native three to one with a four fifty
Speaker 6: five ERA and He's delivered twenty four scoreless innings in
Speaker 6: thirty one times.
Speaker 7: He owns a three to two.
Speaker 6: Career record with a seventy six ERA in thirty five games.
Speaker 7: So Kyle Hurt will be the opener.
Speaker 6: How long he goes, we'll find out together on what
Speaker 6: is now turned into a bullpen game in game one
Speaker 6: of this three game set against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Remember
Speaker 6: after this weekend All Star breaking, then the Dodgers will
Speaker 6: start the second half of the season in New York
Speaker 6: against the Yankees beginning next Friday. Kyle Hurt Eduardo Rodriguez
Speaker 6: the pitching matchup Game one of this three game set
Speaker 6: Dodgers and Diamondbacks. We're fifteen minutes away from first pitch.
Speaker 6: Keys to the game are coming up next.
Speaker 7: Don't you go anywhere. I'm Tim Katsum.
Speaker 6: This is the back to back World Series champion Dodgers
Speaker 6: Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on deck on your home
Speaker 1: for the blue all season off.
Speaker 6: It's the Dodgers and the Diamondbacks, first of a three
Speaker 6: game set.
Speaker 7: Show.
Speaker 6: Hey Otani scratched, Kyle Hurt. We'll get the start instead,
Speaker 6: and what is now a bullpen game Eduardo Rodriguez, the
Speaker 6: left hander, will go for Arizona. As we get you
Speaker 6: ready for the start of the game with the Sapporo
Speaker 6: Start Great moment, Start with Sapporo Beer.
Speaker 7: Whatever your taste preference.
Speaker 6: So Poro has you cover with a variety of crisp
Speaker 6: and refreshing loggers, including light and non alcoholic beers. Soporo
Speaker 6: good with sushi, great with baseball. Let's head back out
Speaker 6: to the booth one final time. Tim Neverrick Rick Monday, Guys.
Speaker 2: Thanks very much, Tim, getting ready for this one, as
Speaker 2: the Dodgers will send Kyle Hurt to the mild. He'll
Speaker 2: make his second career start. His first one came on
Speaker 2: the sixteenth of April twenty twenty four against the Washington Nationals.
Speaker 2: But he's been a big part of this Dodger bullpen
Speaker 2: twenty four score listennings in his last thirty one appearances.
Speaker 2: He got a win Friday against San Diego. So Kyle
Speaker 2: Hurt is the first one on the mound tonight.
Speaker 9: He'll have limited exposure as far as the number of innings,
Speaker 9: and for the Dodgers, they feel very good about the
Speaker 9: backup support because of the off day yesterday and also
Speaker 9: it was not a high usage of the bullpen prior
Speaker 9: to the off day, So yeah, it'll be Hurt and
Speaker 9: others on the mountain tonight. Dodgers have to figure out Rodriguez,
Speaker 9: in particular, when Rodriguez gets ahead in the count, he's
Speaker 9: allowed just a one to thirty three batting average against him.
Speaker 9: Does allow too many hits to begin with to nineteen
Speaker 9: for this season.
Speaker 2: Having the best season of his career, perhaps the first
Speaker 2: time All Star to twenty five as his era. He's
Speaker 2: allowed two runs or fewer in eleven of his last
Speaker 2: thirteen games, and the last Sunday got a no decision
Speaker 2: against Milwaukee's six innings he allowed just two runs, and
Speaker 2: again the Dodgers this year and two prior appearances, he
Speaker 2: has allowed two runs total, only one of them earned
Speaker 2: through eleven pitches. So the lefty Eduardo Rodriguez against the
Speaker 2: right hander Kyle Hurt, who will open tonight. The Dodgers
Speaker 2: sixty one and thirty three. The Diamondbacks are forty six
Speaker 2: and forty seven.
Speaker 6: Tip all right, first pitches next after the game is over.
Speaker 6: Yours truly's got you covered with all the postgame festivities,
Speaker 6: including Dodger Talkie as well. We get plenty of reaction
Speaker 6: after this game is over. Kyle Hurt is the opener.
Speaker 6: Showy Otani, though, will lead off as a designated hitter.
Speaker 6: Dodgers first place atop the NL West, fourteen and a
Speaker 6: half games up in the Division over. Both the Padres
Speaker 6: and the Diamondbacks are squaring off against Arizona. We'll keep
Speaker 6: you updated all night long with the Padres that are
Speaker 6: doing at home against the Toronto Blue Jays. Effect, they're
Speaker 6: already up to nothing in the bottom half of the
Speaker 6: first first pitch is next from the ravine. Kyle Hurt
Speaker 6: on the mound Dodgers and Dobby Macks and join everybody.
Speaker 6: I'm Tim kay Sis been Brongo Casino Dodgers on deck
Speaker 6: on the back to back.
