Speaker 5: evening up this series at a game and piece, Yoshinobu
Speaker 5: Yamamoto gets the ball for Dave Roberts team first pitch
Speaker 5: from Rogers Center in Toronto is coming up at five
Speaker 5: h eight. Between then and now, we got a lot
Speaker 5: to get to here on Maronggo Casino Dodgers on Deck,
Speaker 5: you are going to hear from Dodger manager Dave Roberts,
Speaker 5: get his thoughts before Game two, get his reaction to
Speaker 5: what happened last night and how they can bounce back tonight.
Speaker 5: We'll preview this pitching matchup. David Vasse, our Dodger insider,
Speaker 5: joins us throughout the hour. We'll hear from Charlie Steiner.
Speaker 5: Coming up in about thirty minutes, we got your Dodgers
Speaker 5: World Series magical moment. Kirsten Watson from Sports in NLA,
Speaker 5: who you can see pre and post on TV, will
Speaker 5: join us as well in just a little bit. In
Speaker 5: just a couple of minutes, we'll check in with Steven
Speaker 5: Nelson and Rick Monday out at the Gallpin Motors Broadcast booth. Well,
Speaker 5: last night in Toronto, the Dodgers with their first real
Speaker 5: stinker of the postseason. Up until now, it has been
Speaker 5: really good for the Dodgers in the NLDS and the NLCS,
Speaker 5: and last night they dropped the series opener in Toronto,
Speaker 5: Blake Snell got the start.
Speaker 2: Snell Zilla didn't.
Speaker 5: Look like the dominant monster on the mound like we've
Speaker 5: seen in this previous three starts to this postseason. Instead,
Speaker 5: he had control issues, got hit around a little bit
Speaker 5: as the Dodgers offense gave Snell an early lead to
Speaker 5: work with. In the second, Dodgers, with some traffic on
Speaker 5: the base, bats two on one out for keyk Hernandez.
Speaker 6: The won one pitch Hernandez base hit up the middle
Speaker 6: Tioscar Hernandez gets the green light.
Speaker 2: There won't be a throw home.
Speaker 6: Kik Hernandez postseason player gives the Dodgers the first lead
Speaker 6: of the World Series.
Speaker 4: That's a big break and there are players that just
Speaker 4: really answered the bell when the brightest lights have been
Speaker 4: turned on and you don't get any brighter than the
Speaker 4: World Series.
Speaker 5: Harvey I single for keyk. Dodgers grabbed the early one
Speaker 5: to nothing lead, and then the fourth Dodgers took advantage
Speaker 5: of a pair of walks from Trey Savage, will Smith
Speaker 5: and Liver with an RBI single to write Dodgers up
Speaker 5: two to nothing.
Speaker 2: Blake Snell able to get around some.
Speaker 5: Traffic on the bass pass in the first three innings,
Speaker 5: he couldn't go. In the fourth, a leadoff single, then
Speaker 5: Dalton Varshow a two run home run to center that
Speaker 5: tied the game at two, and the six things went
Speaker 5: from bad to worse for Blake Snell. On the Dodgers
Speaker 5: first three batters reached, Snell left the game. Immit Sheen
Speaker 5: comes in single walk, single Blue Jays a five to
Speaker 5: two lead, and they weren't done. Anthony Bonda gives up
Speaker 5: a grand slam to the pitch hitter Addison barger As.
Speaker 5: The Blue Jays grabbed a nine to lead, and it
Speaker 5: got even worse. A two run home run for Alejandro
Speaker 5: kirk As. The Toronto Blue Jays scored nine runs in
Speaker 5: the sixth inning. Last Night jumped out to an eleven
Speaker 5: to two lead. The game was out of reach, but
Speaker 5: the Dodgers didn't go quietly. In the seventh, show Hey Otani.
Speaker 6: The one two pitch and o'tanis guys went high in
Speaker 6: the ear deep right field, carrying back this ball is
Speaker 6: out of here, sho Hey Oltani with a two run
Speaker 6: home run. The deficit is now seven.
Speaker 5: Two run home run from show Hey, that's the top
Speaker 5: tier play of the game brought to you by Arco Quality,
Speaker 5: top tier gas for less. Dodgers down eleven to four,
Speaker 5: They'd get no closer. As the Toronto Blue Jays take
Speaker 5: Game one of the World Series last night. Blake's now
Speaker 5: five plus innings, five runs, eight hits, three walks. He
Speaker 5: gets the loss. The Dodgers bullpen reared its ugly head.
Speaker 5: Sheehan Bonda give up six runs in the six Dodgers
Speaker 5: have to flush this game one out of their system.
Speaker 5: Turn the page. Get ready because today a new day,
Speaker 5: new game. Tonight, Game two of the twenty twenty five
Speaker 5: World Series. Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the mound from Toronto with more.
Speaker 5: We head out to the Gallpin Motors broadcast booth as
Speaker 5: we welcome in Steven Nelson and Rick Monday.
Speaker 6: Guys, all right, Tim Kates the Dodgers and Blue Jays
Speaker 6: back at it at Rogers Center, and Rick Monday. This
Speaker 6: is a pivotal one for the Dodgers. After getting blitzed
Speaker 6: in won in a nine run sixth inning by the
Speaker 6: Blue Jays offense, they turned to Yoshinobu Yamamoto to try
Speaker 6: and be a stopper opposite Kevin Gossman. But Dodger fans
Speaker 6: that they weren't familiar with the Blue Jays offensive potency
Speaker 6: going into the World Series. They are certainly familiar.
Speaker 4: Now, Yeah, anyone that understole them lost the bet. That's
Speaker 4: just the fact of the matter. And we talked on
Speaker 4: the pregame show yesterday. I said, this is a ball club,
Speaker 4: being the Blue Jays. They make contact, they don't swing
Speaker 4: and missile whole lot. And that was evidence in last
Speaker 4: night's game because if you look at it, I mean,
Speaker 4: they only had fifteen swings and misses. The Dodgers, on
Speaker 4: the other hand, had twenty seven swings and misses during
Speaker 4: the ballgame. So, you know, don't worry about the other guy.
Speaker 4: I think the Dodgers have to worry about themselves. And
Speaker 4: that means, hey, timely hitting. And that's one of the
Speaker 4: things Dave Roberts we heard him say earlier this afternoon.
Speaker 4: He said, look, we mean the Dodgers, we've not been
Speaker 4: great at situational hitting during the postseason. That was evidence
Speaker 4: last night. They had a chance to get a basis loaded.
Speaker 4: It was a swing and a miss, strike three and
Speaker 4: a bad pitch out of the strike's own same inning,
Speaker 4: you'd run into an out, so you give up two
Speaker 4: outs of opportunity. The Dodgers had that great opportunity, as
Speaker 4: we mentioned earlier in the game, to blow out the
Speaker 4: Blue Jays early in the game that did not happen.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean you look up and down the blue
Speaker 6: Jays starting lineup, which looks a little different here in
Speaker 6: Game two because the Dodgers are starting a right hander.
Speaker 6: No Bobashett, no David Schneider, Miles straws out as well,
Speaker 6: So it's Nathan Lucas Addison Barger at the first postseason
Speaker 6: pinch hit Grand Slam in history. He's starting tonight. But
Speaker 6: for the Dodgers, you know, in contrast to the Blue Jays,
Speaker 6: who seemingly have everybody clicking in that lineup, the Dodgers
Speaker 6: really only have maybe one or two guys who are
Speaker 6: swinging the bat right now, and that's Tommy Edmund and
Speaker 6: then maybe show Hey old Tani, but he's more slug
Speaker 6: He's seen a lot of swing, a miss, a lot
Speaker 6: of strikeouts from show Hey this postseason. Mookie Betts hasn't
Speaker 6: really gotten going. Freddy Freeman and Will Smith as does
Speaker 6: not have an extra base hit in this postseason to
Speaker 6: date at Taioscar Hernandez has gone ice cold, and Andy Piez.
Speaker 6: The struggles are well documented, so they need not just
Speaker 6: one guy or two guys, They need several guys to.
Speaker 4: Get going absolutely, and then they have to run the
Speaker 4: bases much better than that. There was some question about
Speaker 4: Andy Pyes, who's batting nine kies in the lineup again
Speaker 4: easier three for thirty nine in postseason, and Dave Roberts
Speaker 4: has asked, well, are you thinking about maybe taking him
Speaker 4: out of the lineup? Well, he's in there tonight, but
Speaker 4: the big question centered around what are the opportunities to
Speaker 4: make other decisions if they decide to go that way.
Speaker 4: Tommy Edmonds ankle is not going to allow him to
Speaker 4: play center field, not to the caliber that they need
Speaker 4: and expose him maybe the more injuries, So that is
Speaker 4: a question. But the Dodgers from top to bottom did
Speaker 4: not do a particularly good job last night in pitched
Speaker 4: selection and then also making contact on the flip side.
Speaker 4: That's exactly what the Blue Jays did and hopefully that's
Speaker 4: not going to be the case again tonight.
Speaker 6: More splitters, a lot of them on both sides. Kevin
Speaker 6: Gossman throws more of them than anybody in baseball, and
Speaker 6: then obviously donder Vin somewhere with Yoshinobu Young Moto. We'll
Speaker 6: talk about that pitching matchup in a couple of keys
Speaker 6: from mo next time we visit with you.
Speaker 5: Too, all right, Nelly, Dodger fans, as we count you
Speaker 5: down to first pitch, get your game day meal on
Speaker 5: a Shaky's Pizza parlor. Yeah, get ready for first pitch,
Speaker 5: or to your Shaky's Pizza and Chicken and Mojo's right
Speaker 5: now at Shaky's dot com. We're often running here on
Speaker 5: Dodgers on Deck coming up over the hour, or you're
Speaker 5: gonna hear from the Dodger manager Dave Roberts, David Vesse
Speaker 5: checks in. But up next, we'll visit with Kirsten Watson
Speaker 5: from Sports at LA.
Speaker 2: That's all coming up.
Speaker 5: As we lead you up to Dodgers in Blue Jays
Speaker 5: Game two of the twenty twenty five World Series.
Speaker 2: I'm Tim Katson.
Speaker 5: This is your World champion Los Angeles Dodgers a Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Morongo Cassino Dodgers Hunts game on.
Speaker 3: Your home for LA Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 5: It's the Dodgers in Blue Jays Game two of the
Speaker 5: World Series for Toronto. Yoshinobu, ya'm a moto on the mound.
Speaker 5: Dodgers down oh one already in this series. First pitch
Speaker 5: coming up at five away.
Speaker 1: This is Kirston's corner with Kirston Watson and Kirston out.
Speaker 2: Brought to you by Cars for Kids.
Speaker 5: Ready to donate that old car call eight sep and
Speaker 5: seven Cars for Kids right now, Friendly agents standing by
Speaker 5: to take your donation.
Speaker 2: That's Cars with a k Well Dodgers down oh one.
Speaker 5: The offense last night was good early on Kirston, but
Speaker 5: didn't see much outside of Otawni late in that game
Speaker 5: last night.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and with talking to Dave Roberts as well as
Speaker 7: just some of the guys how they have looked at it,
Speaker 7: looking at more of the offense as a collective this postseason.
Speaker 7: Dave Roberts was saying that what they've been missing is
Speaker 7: they haven't been very good situationally. They've been doing a
Speaker 7: really good job of building innings, which is not finishing them.
Speaker 7: And I think we saw examples of that last night
Speaker 7: leaving the bases loaded. We talked about how early in
Speaker 7: the game, you know, they were hassing the baton, taking
Speaker 7: their walks bring the ball in play. They did a
Speaker 7: very good job getting to Trey A. Savage, and it's
Speaker 7: gonna be a similar game plan going up against Gosman today.
Speaker 7: This stuff can look a little bit similar. Obviously, there's
Speaker 7: some familiarity with Kevin Gosman. They haven't seen him pretty recently,
Speaker 7: but they understand that he's a very good picture.
Speaker 1: He's the ace.
Speaker 7: Of this Blue Jays team, and so they're gonna have
Speaker 7: to find ways to get to him early. Even was
Speaker 7: talking to Mookie Betts last night, he was saying, you know,
Speaker 7: there's some positive. They did get to see a few
Speaker 7: of their arms out of the bullpen, not necessarily to
Speaker 7: any of their high leverage arms, just due to the
Speaker 7: score of the game, but getting an idea as to
Speaker 7: some looks that is huge for them. So the hope
Speaker 7: is just continue to pass the baton to take really
Speaker 7: just to continue the quality of a bats That's what
Speaker 7: Dave Roberts really does want to see. But it's looking
Speaker 7: for like that timely finish. That is the key for
Speaker 7: this group right now, just to get things going. But
Speaker 7: they have felt considering the layoff things like that, they
Speaker 7: do feel like the offense is there. It's in a
Speaker 7: really good spot. But it's just looking for a little
Speaker 7: bit more to take them to that next level that
Speaker 7: we have seen from this group considering how much talent
Speaker 7: there is up and down the line up.
Speaker 5: Now, as far as the Dodger pitching is concerned, they
Speaker 5: need Yoshi to be really good and that Dodger's bullpen
Speaker 5: Careerson really needs to bounce back tonight.
Speaker 7: Yeah, they do, and I'm talking to the guys. That's
Speaker 7: very much to their mindset.
Speaker 2: Last night.
Speaker 7: They were just kind of like, you know, they did
Speaker 7: not they were not executing their pitchers. We know that
Speaker 7: this Blue Jays team is a very powerful lineup.
Speaker 2: They've got the long ball.
Speaker 7: We saw that last night with three home runs. This
Speaker 7: is a pitching staff that had only given up four
Speaker 7: home runs in the postseason in what the ten games
Speaker 7: that they've had coming into that game last night, and
Speaker 7: for them to give up three in one game, that's
Speaker 7: not where they want to be, and then one of
Speaker 7: them is a Grand Slam. So, especially without six inning,
Speaker 7: things built up very quickly, even from whether it was
Speaker 7: Blake Snell who just felt like he didn't really have
Speaker 7: his fastball command to set things up passing the baton
Speaker 7: then to Emmachian Anthony Bonda, they just didn't have their
Speaker 7: stuff coming out of the bullpen. So they recognize it's
Speaker 7: one game. You know, it was only game one of
Speaker 7: the World Series. They now understand what their back to
Speaker 7: ball skills really look like in person. And so the
Speaker 7: hope is today that really with Yoshinobu, just to set
Speaker 7: that tone early, and Will Smith was saying that, you know,
Speaker 7: he's locked in, he's focused. He's coming off of an
Speaker 7: outing in which he went a complete game only up
Speaker 7: that leadoff home run and then after that was lights out.
Speaker 7: You know, obviously you want to limit the leadoff home
Speaker 7: run tonight. But if he can put up a performance
Speaker 7: similar that would be ideal. Probably not the complete game
Speaker 7: like we saw, but if he can get deep into
Speaker 7: this one and really control there at bats on the
Speaker 7: Blue Jay side, that would be huge for this Dodgers
Speaker 7: team hopefully go back to Los Angeles in a one
Speaker 7: to one situation, not being down two.
Speaker 2: No doubt about it. Curse appreciate it.
Speaker 5: We'll check out with you after the game still to
Speaker 5: come here on Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, We'll dive
Speaker 5: deeper to this pitchy matchup. David Vets goes one on
Speaker 5: one with Kevin Pillar, former Blue Jay, former Dodger, now broadcaster.
Speaker 5: But up next we'll hear from Dodger manager Dave Roberts.
Speaker 5: It's a Dodgers and Blue Jays Game two of the
Speaker 5: World Series for Toronto. First pitch at five oh wait.
Speaker 5: I'm Tim Gates is the world champion. Los Angeles Dodgers
Speaker 5: Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on deck on your home
Speaker 1: for the blue all season long.
Speaker 5: Moroango Casino Dodgers on decantus. As we lead jump to
Speaker 5: first pitch from Toronto Dodgers and Blue Jays, Morono Casino
Speaker 5: Resort and spat a Grand Slam for good times. It's
Speaker 5: Game two of the World Series. Dodgers looking to bounce back.
Speaker 5: Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the mound. First bitch coming up at
Speaker 5: five to oh eight. Let's head back out to Rogers
Speaker 5: Center and here the pregame thoughts from the Dodgers skipper.
Speaker 3: Anything else the questions for Dave, Dave, can you just
Speaker 3: describe Dave?
Speaker 2: Can you talk about the pressure.
Speaker 3: In the dugouts with Dave Roberts.
Speaker 7: Dave will Smith was in here earlier, and he was
Speaker 7: just talking about some of the offense and and yet
Speaker 7: Bats said he's either been having or been seeing from
Speaker 7: this team. What's got to be the key just to
Speaker 7: kind of having some of those pivotal moments and the
Speaker 7: timely hitting that you want to see from this group
Speaker 7: and see it quality that Bats has been there thus far.
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know what I thought. You know, first time through,
Speaker 8: I thought we were fantastic. I really did, you know.
Speaker 8: Tonight's going to be a similar test as far as pitcher,
Speaker 8: and then I felt the second time around we fell
Speaker 8: off as far as quality of a path. I think
Speaker 8: it's just sort of you know, being aggressive early, but
Speaker 8: then the ability to win pitches as we get deeper
Speaker 8: in the count. And I think if you look at
Speaker 8: early count hitting, they were better last night. And then
Speaker 8: as far as with two strikes, winning pitches late, fouling
Speaker 8: pitches off, they were better. And that's sort of, you know,
Speaker 8: the tail of the two offenses last night. So today
Speaker 8: it's a different day. The psyche, the mentality, the mindset
Speaker 8: is good from our guys. But yeah, I do feel
Speaker 8: good in the sense that similar type of profile, you know,
Speaker 8: with Gosman versus yes Savage last night.
Speaker 5: All right there he is Dodgers' manager. Day before Game
Speaker 5: two of this World Series. He gives the ball to
Speaker 5: Yoshinobu Yamamotos. The Dodgers look to head back to La
Speaker 5: tied at a game of peace. They got a lot
Speaker 5: of work ahead of him tonight. When we continue here
Speaker 5: on Moroco Casino Dodgers on deck, we will check in
Speaker 5: with the David bass So we're leading you up to
Speaker 5: first pitch from Rogers Center in Toronto. I'm Tim kateson.
Speaker 5: This is the world champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: As we were saying, yes, is Morongo Casino Dodgers on
Speaker 1: deck on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 5: It's the Dodgers and the Blue Jays, Game two of
Speaker 5: the World Series from Toronto.
Speaker 1: First pitch coming up at five oh eight. Joining Tim
Speaker 1: Kates on Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 3: I accept everybody for who they are. This is Dodger
Speaker 3: inside there, David Basse, all.
Speaker 2: Right, DV. What's it like at Rogers Center right now?
Speaker 2: Last night?
Speaker 5: It was explosive, it was loud, That crowd was into it.
Speaker 5: Imagine they're smelling blood up one to zero in this series.
Speaker 5: They're going into Game two tonight.
Speaker 9: Yeah, there's a lot of Jay's fever on the streets
Speaker 9: of Toronto today. Fans were lined up five hours before
Speaker 9: first pitch to get into the buildings, so they are
Speaker 9: ready to go. And a couple of coaches and players
Speaker 9: asked me earlier this afternoon when I arrived, Hey, did
Speaker 9: you think last night was louder here than Game one
Speaker 9: in Philadelphia? I said no, I thought Philadelphia was louder,
Speaker 9: but certainly there was a lot of energy, and the
Speaker 9: roof being closed also amplifies things, so it was loud.
Speaker 2: It was loud.
Speaker 9: If the Dodgers were able to score a couple of
Speaker 9: runs in that first inning, it would have been a
Speaker 9: different story. So that's part of the equation for them
Speaker 9: to take this crowd out of the game early.
Speaker 5: Dave, do you think this Dodger seems filling the pressure
Speaker 5: to tie up one to one coming back home?
Speaker 9: Well, the first two guys I ran into on the
Speaker 9: field today when I arrived was Max Munsey and Mookie Bets,
Speaker 9: and their demeanor was exactly the same as I saw
Speaker 9: it when they were up two oh on Milwaukee or
Speaker 9: two to zero after beating the Phillies. And that's the
Speaker 9: strength of this Dodger team. And they were actually celebrated
Speaker 9: for the way they acted after sweeping the Brewers and
Speaker 9: advancing to the World Series. They didn't over celebrate, they
Speaker 9: didn't act like they had won the World Series. And
Speaker 9: that's what's going to serve them well in a situation
Speaker 9: tonight where, for all intensive purposes, tim this is.
Speaker 8: A must win game.
Speaker 9: If you go down oh two, it is going to
Speaker 9: be a steep mountain to climb. Tommy Yedman, who is
Speaker 9: back in the starting lineup at second base tonight, spoke
Speaker 9: about that earlier today.
Speaker 10: I mean, obviously we're surprised with how many runs they
Speaker 10: scored yesterday, with how good our pitching staff has been,
Speaker 10: but you know, it's really tough to go through a
Speaker 10: whole postseason without having, you know, a game or two
Speaker 10: like that. And we know with how good this offense is,
Speaker 10: that they can, you know, kind of explode at anytime.
Speaker 10: But you know, we've, like you said, we've been there
Speaker 10: last year, that series against against the Padres, where we're
Speaker 10: facing a couple elimination games, and we have pretty much
Speaker 10: the same group back that faced that situation last year.
Speaker 10: So you know, we've been there before.
Speaker 9: And look, the Dodgers understand they have to be better
Speaker 9: in situations with runners in scoring position or advancing the runner.
Speaker 9: They have not been very good this entire postseason in
Speaker 9: those situations. The home run has really saved them. So
Speaker 9: they've got to be able to do those little things
Speaker 9: to score runs in advance runners if they're going to
Speaker 9: be successful and get this thing on track again.
Speaker 5: David is brought to you by the twenty twenty five
Speaker 5: four f one to fifty from California's best selling truck brand.
Speaker 5: It's time to see Ford in a new light. David,
Speaker 5: great stuff. We'll check back in with you in just
Speaker 5: a little bit. Dave's gonna go one on one with

Speaker 1: Dog who wants the hot It's time for the Hawfey
Speaker 1: Magical Moment. It's magical presented by Hawfy Hot Dogs.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 5: A lot of magical moments in the postseason and in
Speaker 5: the World Old Series for the Los Angeles Dodgers, none bigger,
Speaker 5: arguably than the nineteen eighty eight World Series Game one
Speaker 5: Dodgers Stadium, Dodgers in the Oakland Athletics, a moment every
Speaker 5: Dodger fan remembers and knows. The ninth inning, Dennis Eckersley
Speaker 5: on the mound, Dodgers down, but up came Kurt Gibson.
Speaker 3: Sack's waiting on deck.
Speaker 2: But the game right now is at the plate, high
Speaker 2: fly ball into right field.
Speaker 4: She is.
Speaker 3: It's done.
Speaker 9: In a year that has been so improbable, the impossible
Speaker 9: has happened.
Speaker 5: Kirk Gibson with the magical walk off home run into
Speaker 5: the right field pavilion at Dodgers Stadium as the Dodgers
Speaker 5: win Game one of the nineteen eighty eight World Series
Speaker 5: on their way to a World Series championship. This Hafey
Speaker 5: magical moment brought to you by Hoffey hot Dogs, Haffey
Speaker 5: so Cow's local treasure for nearly one hundred years. Haffy
Speaker 5: hot Dogs, local and so great. When we continue here
Speaker 5: on Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, we'll check in with
Speaker 5: Charlie Steiner as we lead up to first pitch and
Speaker 5: Rogers Center in Toronto. I'm Tim Katson. This is the
Speaker 5: world champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: This is Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck on your home
Speaker 3: for the Blue All Season Law.
Speaker 5: Good Law Dodgers and Blue Jays in Toronto, Game two
Speaker 5: of the twenty twenty five World Series. Yoshinobu Yamamoto and
Speaker 5: Kevin Gosman the pitching matchup Dodgers looking even up this
Speaker 5: series at a game of peace. Time Now for the
Speaker 5: Verizon startup, as we're a little bit more than thirty
Speaker 5: minutes away from the start of the game. Now, Verizon,
Speaker 5: you can lock in your low price for three years
Speaker 5: so you can save big. Visit the Verizon store today
Speaker 5: and now welcome in Charlie Styner.
Speaker 11: All right, Tim, getting ready for game two, coming into
Speaker 11: the series more. The conventional wisdom was this is David
Speaker 11: versus Goliath, and after game one, which team is which?
Speaker 4: Well, I think the Dodgers have to recent and start
Speaker 4: to make better contact and make better pitches. If we're
Speaker 4: looking at last night's ball game, you know it got
Speaker 4: off to a very good start. Dodgers had a two
Speaker 4: to nothing lead after two and a half innings, and
Speaker 4: then well it went the opposite direction. Blake Snell really
Speaker 4: did not have a command of the striketh zone, did
Speaker 4: not have the changeup. And the other part too, is
Speaker 4: when he asked which team is which? Well, for the
Speaker 4: Blue Jays, they stayed within their own character. They did
Speaker 4: not expand the strength zone at all. In fact, they
Speaker 4: only struck out four times during the game. The Dodgers,
Speaker 4: unfortunately not only thirteen strikeouts, but they had twenty seven
Speaker 4: swings and misses and twenty nine called strengths on them
Speaker 4: last night. So the Dodgers have to play better, obviously,
Speaker 4: and they send Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who has been absolutely sensational
Speaker 4: if you look at the last seven starts, and they're
Speaker 4: going to need a very good start tonight because, no
Speaker 4: question about it, the Dodgers need a victory before they
Speaker 4: board their planes and hit the Los Angeles later tonight.
Speaker 11: Teams that begin or two on the road in the
Speaker 11: series come back and win eleven out of fifty seven
Speaker 11: nineteen percent. And so with the Dodger bullpen really in
Speaker 11: shambles at the moment, there is little or no margin
Speaker 11: of error for the Dodger starters.
Speaker 4: Yeah, having been one of those nineteen teams in eighty one,
Speaker 4: we were down no games to two against the Yankees
Speaker 4: in New York, able to come back and win that game,
Speaker 4: winning the next four. But you mentioned the bullpen. Other
Speaker 4: than those relievers named Sasaki, the bullpen has an era
Speaker 4: of seven point nine to four and that is not
Speaker 4: going to get it done at this particular stage of
Speaker 4: the events. And for Toronto, they're gonna come out fully charged,
Speaker 4: and they're going to stay within character, and that is,
Speaker 4: don't expand the strike zone and make the pitcher come
Speaker 4: to the hitter.
Speaker 11: The place sounded like it was crazy last night. I
Speaker 11: don't expect it to be much different tonight.
Speaker 4: No, especially with the roof that's closed. Charlie, you've been
Speaker 4: here and you understand exactly what it is. A sala crowd.
Speaker 4: In fact, you know, if we look at the Blue
Speaker 4: Jays media Guide, it says that this play seats thirty
Speaker 4: nine thousand, one and nine. Well, they were able to
Speaker 4: squeeze in forty four thousand plus last night, and all
Speaker 4: of them have a very strong voice. Oh, there's a
Speaker 4: contingency of a Dodger fans, there's no question about that.
Speaker 4: But this is the World Series, this is the biggest stage,
Speaker 4: and boy, they set the stage last night with a
Speaker 4: pregame ceremony. You and I were talking about that earlier
Speaker 4: off air that went very well and the Dodgers what
Speaker 4: they need to do tonight. It sounds easy, but they
Speaker 4: need to play Dodger baseball, which includes defense. They made
Speaker 4: base running blunder last night. They cost them dearly early
Speaker 4: in the game and strikeouts with opportunities to to get
Speaker 4: a run on a Basi's loaded walks. It's the ball
Speaker 4: club that they know what they have to do. Last
Speaker 4: night they did not do it.
Speaker 11: Snell through twenty nine pitches in the first inning last night,
Speaker 11: and that, sadly, it was a sign of things to come,
Speaker 11: because he was gone much sooner than he and the
Speaker 11: Dodgers had hoped and expected.
Speaker 2: And then along came the bullpen. Yeah, no question.
Speaker 4: And if we look at the Toronto I mean, if
Speaker 4: you look at postseason, here's a ball club that it
Speaker 4: hits very well, no question about that. Well in postseason
Speaker 4: as a team, they're hitting three to five. What about
Speaker 4: the opposing teams against them? Just two seventeen batting average against.
Speaker 4: So maybe overlooked is what the James have done offensively, defensively,
Speaker 4: and by the way, may be undersold by many teams
Speaker 4: they're pitching, but last night nobody undersold it.
Speaker 11: The Dodgers hitting two fifty in the postseason having scored
Speaker 11: fifty runs, Toronto is hitting three to five of the postseason,
Speaker 11: having scored eighty two.
Speaker 3: So offensive league Game one, the.
Speaker 11: Blue Jays certainly had a significant advantage. They got to
Speaker 11: turn things around Cosmon going for the Blue Jays, and
Speaker 11: of course Yamamoto, who was steadily the Dodgers' best pitcher
Speaker 11: from opening Day until today, getting a most important start tonight,
Speaker 11: Game two of the twenty twenty five World Series. Right
Speaker 11: around the corner. Tim all right, thank you, Charlie. As
Speaker 11: we get you closer to Game two of this World Series.

Speaker 5: up next we go high and tight. It's the Dodgers
Speaker 5: and Blue Jays Game two of the World Series coming
Speaker 5: up from Toronto. I'm Tim Kass, World champion Los Angeles
Speaker 5: Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino.
Speaker 1: Dodgers on Jack on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 5: Dodger fans leading you up to Game two of the
Speaker 5: World Series in Toronto, Canada, Dodgers and Blue Jays Yoshinobu
Speaker 5: Yamamoto on the Mount as the Dodgers look to bounce
Speaker 5: back after losing the series opener last night. First pitch
Speaker 5: coming up a little after five o'clock. Dodgers Baseball, brought
Speaker 5: to you by Shaky's Pizza Parlor, the official pizza partner
Speaker 5: of the Dodgers audio broadcast. When it's game night, it's
Speaker 5: group night at Shaky's dot Com.
Speaker 1: And now what will likely be vast fielding insults from
Speaker 1: a Dodger player.
Speaker 2: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 3: This is high end.
Speaker 2: Touched, all right.
Speaker 9: It's a reunion at the World Series. We're just in
Speaker 9: front of Game two between the Dodgers and Blue Jays,
Speaker 9: and I'm joined right now by a man that made
Speaker 9: his bone in the eight one eight or the Great
Speaker 9: one eight in West Hills. He was with the Dodgers
Speaker 9: for a brief time, but obviously superman here in Toronto.
Speaker 9: And that's the one and only Kevin Pillar. Kevin, great
Speaker 9: to see you and awesome that you have chased your
Speaker 9: dream post playing career to be an established broadcaster.
Speaker 12: Now, yeah, it's pretty exciting. I mean it's something I've
Speaker 12: thought about. I mean, even back when we were together
Speaker 12: with the Dodgers, I picked your brain. You were great
Speaker 12: allowing me to come on and kind of get my
Speaker 12: feet wet in you know, media. But really I'm most
Speaker 12: excited about. You know, this is my first World Series.
Speaker 12: I know you're no stranger of the World Series, but
Speaker 12: it's been really exciting to just be on the field.
Speaker 12: I mean, it's what you dream of as a player,
Speaker 12: and you know, unfortunately I didn't get a chance to
Speaker 12: do it as a player. So getting here kind of
Speaker 12: step into this role with Sportsnet and and kind of
Speaker 12: ride the coattails of the Blue Jays all the way
Speaker 12: the World Series has been really exciting for me.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 9: So since you are a broadcaster, now, do you see
Speaker 9: the game the same way you did even from the
Speaker 9: dugout when you're with the Dodgers or laid in your
Speaker 9: playing career.
Speaker 12: I think it's a little bit different. I think people,
Speaker 12: you know, maybe in your shoes, people that sit in
Speaker 12: the stands or the press box or the audience, they
Speaker 12: always tell you the game slows down and it looks
Speaker 12: less difficult when you're in the you know, the press
Speaker 12: box or where I watch the game from. You know,
Speaker 12: I haven't lost kind of that mindset of a player
Speaker 12: from like a competitive aspect, from X's and o's, but
Speaker 12: the game definitely has slowed down, you know. It's it's
Speaker 12: a lot easier to be critical of decisions that are
Speaker 12: made throughout the game because you have a lot longer
Speaker 12: time to kind of process the information. You kind of
Speaker 12: lose a sense for how quick things have to be
Speaker 12: done in game. But I always promise myself when I
Speaker 12: got into media that I'd never forget how difficult the
Speaker 12: game is, decisions, you know, singing at pitches, you know,
Speaker 12: just the entirety of the game. And I promise myself
Speaker 12: I would never be too critical. And there's certain times
Speaker 12: throughout this postseason that you know, I've had to be honest,
Speaker 12: but I hope it comes from a good place and
Speaker 12: like it's never going to be pointed at, you know, individual,
Speaker 12: it's it's always going to be coming from a maybe
Speaker 12: a learning aspect because I hate it being criticized as
Speaker 12: a player because you know, much like I'm experiencing now,
Speaker 12: the game does seem a lot easier on TV or
Speaker 12: even in the stands. And I think that's the beauty
Speaker 12: of being a former player, and you know, jumping ship
Speaker 12: to the other side is you can offer the perspective
Speaker 12: of what it's like to be in the box, the
Speaker 12: emotions that would probably come with playing a game like this,
Speaker 12: and that's what I'm kind of here to share.
Speaker 9: You understand the method of the Dodgers. You know a
Speaker 9: lot of these players that are in this world series.
Speaker 9: What if anything should we make of a game like
Speaker 9: last night and how much it plays into Game two.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, it's kind of crazy to be standing
Speaker 12: here in a world series with these two teams. Obviously,
Speaker 12: the Blue Jays is, you know, kind of my baby
Speaker 12: where I grew up, and you know who I'm affiliated with.
Speaker 12: But I've also been in that dugout, in that clubhouse
Speaker 12: with a lot of those guys. Obviously there's some new
Speaker 12: characters here, but I know their process, I know what
Speaker 12: they're about, I know the competitiveness, I know the hunger,
Speaker 12: and honestly, I think, you know, what happened yesterday was
Speaker 12: a wake up call to the Dodgers, you know, not
Speaker 12: that they probably you know, took the Blue Jays lightly
Speaker 12: I don't think any team would ever take in a
Speaker 12: posing team lightly on this stage because you have to
Speaker 12: earn your way to the World Series. But I think
Speaker 12: it was a little bit of a wake up call
Speaker 12: for him. I think reality kind of set in where
Speaker 12: I don't want to say things had been easy for them,
Speaker 12: but it's been a smooth sailing for them, you know,
Speaker 12: even a lot of those games with the Phillies. The
Speaker 12: one game that they lost was still like a very
Speaker 12: competitive close game. But I think it woke him up
Speaker 12: a little bit, and I expect them to come out
Speaker 12: a little bit different than they were last night.
Speaker 9: Kevin, awesome analysis. I think you're a natural. I think
Speaker 9: you're ready to go foul Territory Sportsnet year in Canada.
Speaker 9: Hopefully we see you back in LA when the series
Speaker 9: shifts there. So thank you for the time and great
Speaker 9: to see you again.
Speaker 3: I will be there there.
Speaker 9: He is the man, Kevin Polar Watch out Ventura Boulevard.
Speaker 9: He's gonna be hitting those streets and Dan super subs
Speaker 9: very soon.
Speaker 2: We'll send it back to you, Tim, all right.
Speaker 5: Thank you, David. Getting closer to first pitch. Dodger fans, Well,
Speaker 5: we come back here on Morogo Casino Dodgers on deck.
Speaker 5: We'll break down this pitchy matchup. Don't go anywhere. Game
Speaker 5: two of the World Series from Toronto. I'm Tim Kayson.
Speaker 5: This is the world champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: This is Morongo.
Speaker 1: Casino Dodgers hunting on your home for La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 5: It's Game two of the World Series from Toronto, Dodgers
Speaker 5: and Blue Jays.
Speaker 2: First pitch coming up at five oh eight.
Speaker 1: And now before the Dodgers hit the dinon, we look
Speaker 1: at the pitching matchup.
Speaker 5: Where's it about your Southern California Toyota dealers. Work hard,
Speaker 5: play hard in a New Tacoma with an I Force
Speaker 5: turbo charts engine. It's a truck bill for the bolt.
Speaker 5: See your Toyota dealers today. They make it easy. Kevin
Speaker 5: Gosman on the mound for the Blue Jays, thirty four
Speaker 5: year old right hander. Thirteenth season in the Big Leagues,
Speaker 5: fourth with the Blue Jays. He was ten and eleven
Speaker 5: with a three to fifty nine ERA and thirty two
Speaker 5: starts during the regular season. This postseason, four games pitch,
Speaker 5: three starts, one in relief. In the three starts He's
Speaker 5: pitched into the sixth inning in all of them. His
Speaker 5: walks have been an issue, though in this postseason. He's
Speaker 5: issued nine and eighteen innings against the Dodgers. In his
Speaker 5: career two and three with a three fifty seven ERA
Speaker 5: forty seven strikeouts in nine appearances. Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the
Speaker 5: mound for the Dodgers second season with the Blue One
Speaker 5: of the best starters of the National League during the
Speaker 5: regular season, a two time NL Pitcher of the Month,
Speaker 5: including this September, where he was dominant sub one ERA
Speaker 5: almost had that no hitter in Baltimore. He was great
Speaker 5: during the regular season twelve and eight with the two
Speaker 5: to forty nine ERA and two hundred and one strikeouts.
Speaker 5: He's been really good in the postseason the last two years,
Speaker 5: two or fewer earned runs in five of his seven starts.
Speaker 5: Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Kevin Gosman, Dodgers and Blue Jays were fifteen
Speaker 5: minutes away from Game two of the twenty twenty five
Speaker 5: World Series.
Speaker 2: Keys to the game are next.
Speaker 5: I'm sim kas Is the World champion Los Angeles Dodgers
Speaker 5: Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino, Dodgers on Tech on your home
Speaker 1: for the Blue all season long.
Speaker 5: Game two of the World Series from Toronto coming up,
Speaker 5: Dodgers and the Blue Jays, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Kevin Gosman the
Speaker 5: pitching matchup. Before first pitch, though, let's head back out
Speaker 5: to the booth one final time to get the keys
Speaker 5: to the game from Steven Nelson and Rick Monday, guys.
Speaker 2: Tim Kates.
Speaker 6: First pitch in Game two the twenty twenty five World
Speaker 6: Series is just moments away. The Dodgers trying to avoid
Speaker 6: that terrifying two series whole. As we look through history,
Speaker 6: it is not kind of teams who lose the first
Speaker 6: two games of the World Series. But Mo, that was
Speaker 6: then and part of then your team of nineteen eighty
Speaker 6: one climbing back.
Speaker 3: Out of it.
Speaker 6: But even still they would like to avoid that predicament.
Speaker 6: Give me a key or two tonight. Well, I think
Speaker 6: the big key is the Dodgers. For an offensive standpoint,
Speaker 6: I think Moto is going to hold his own, no
Speaker 6: question about it. But if you look at Gosman, you
Speaker 6: mentioned earlier that both of these guys have an excellent
Speaker 6: split finger fastball.
Speaker 4: That's true. Gosman throws a higher percentage than anybody else.
Speaker 4: But here's the other part about Gosman. And I mentioned
Speaker 4: this because of the Dodger's going to be hunting first
Speaker 4: pitch strike, because he throws first pitch strike this year
Speaker 4: seventy percent of the time. And that might really play
Speaker 4: into the effect of Freddy Freeman because first pitch this
Speaker 4: year he's hit four sixty three. Is that a matchup
Speaker 4: that you say, hey, look, first pitch, we're going to
Speaker 4: go hunting. Even if you go hunting first pitch, it
Speaker 4: has to be selective first pitch, it has to be
Speaker 4: a strike.
Speaker 6: Speaking of pitches, Blake Snell did not have his best
Speaker 6: stuff in Game one. That much was evident pretty early.
Speaker 6: First speed bump for a Dodger starter in a long while.
Speaker 6: So now Yoshinobu Yamamoto is going to try and be
Speaker 6: the stopper. And this rag season more this year, twelve
Speaker 6: starts for Yamamoto following a Dodger loss, he has five wins,
Speaker 6: the team has seven wins, and is here a two
Speaker 6: point five to eight in that stretch. He is facing
Speaker 6: the Blue Jays though for the very first time in
Speaker 6: his career, and the Dodgers saw first hand last night
Speaker 6: you know just how potent that unit could be.
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's talk about Blue Jays and what they've done
Speaker 4: postseason against the split finger fastball. Yes, different guys have
Speaker 4: thrown it, but it's still a pitch to be reckoned.
Speaker 4: With the Blue Jays in postseason against the splitters, as
Speaker 4: a team are hitting just one twenty five. That's three
Speaker 4: hits and twenty four advance. Thirty nine percent have been
Speaker 4: strikes as far as swings and misses against that splitter.
Speaker 4: So this kind of falls into the category of Yamamoto
Speaker 4: with that splitter, and for recent history, the Blue Jays
Speaker 4: have not handled pretty well. I would imagine if he
Speaker 4: can control the splitter, we will see a wheelbarrow full
Speaker 4: of them thrown tonight.
Speaker 6: It's been a long while since the Dodgers have lost
Speaker 6: back to back postseason games. It would be games two
Speaker 6: to three of the Division Series last year against San Diego.
Speaker 6: They have won nineteen games of the next twenty four
Speaker 6: postseason games played, and so they want to keep that
Speaker 6: streak alive and avoid an oh two hole in the
Speaker 6: fall class against against Toronto.
Speaker 5: All Right, Nelly, appreciate that coming up first pitch Game
Speaker 5: two the World Series, don't forget. Afterwards, I'll have all
Speaker 5: the postgame festivities including reaction from the clubhouse, all the
Speaker 5: highlights and postgame Dodger talk as well. Dodgers down one
Speaker 5: in this twenty twenty five world series Yoshinobu Yamamoto Kevin Gosman.
Speaker 5: The pitching matchup is the Dodgers look to leave Toronto
Speaker 5: even enough this best of seven series with a win.
Speaker 2: Tonight. First pitch is next. Enjoy it. I'm Tim Katson.
