<v Speaker 3>Incredible and while others make excuses.

0:00:12.280 --> 0:00:14.440
<v Speaker 4>The only reason the Dodgers are doing this because they

0:00:14.440 --> 0:00:15.360
<v Speaker 4>can't they print money.

0:00:15.440 --> 0:00:17.280
<v Speaker 1>The Dodgers just can't continue.

0:00:17.320 --> 0:00:18.120
<v Speaker 2>It's not fair.

0:00:18.280 --> 0:00:19.440
<v Speaker 1>Are making plans.

0:00:20.000 --> 0:00:25.240

<v Speaker 2>and Rick Monday, who are on the call to start

0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:36.560
<v Speaker 2>the game tonight. Well last night in the desert, thanks

0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:39.920
<v Speaker 2>for looking really good for the Dodgers until they weren't.

0:01:40.480 --> 0:01:43.520
<v Speaker 2>Justin Robleski got the start the left tender really good.

0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:48.320
<v Speaker 2>Six innings, no runs, six hits, four strikeouts, zero walks.

0:01:48.560 --> 0:01:51.440
<v Speaker 2>He lowered his ERA to two sixty two on the season,

0:01:51.560 --> 0:01:54.320
<v Speaker 2>left the game with the lead thanks to the Dodgers

0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:56.640
<v Speaker 2>offense with the top of the lineup didn't do much

0:01:56.640 --> 0:02:00.280
<v Speaker 2>showy Otani getting the night off. Mookie Bets, Freddie Freeman

0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:03.200
<v Speaker 2>and he Pa has a combined zero for twelve at

0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:05.240
<v Speaker 2>the play, but it was the bottom of the lineup

0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:06.920
<v Speaker 2>that came through, and they did. In the top of

0:02:06.960 --> 0:02:10.520
<v Speaker 2>the fifth, two outs runners on for Ryan Ward.

0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:13.320
<v Speaker 6>To two swung on and that has poked in the

0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:15.160
<v Speaker 6>right field on the run, Carol, o's.

0:02:14.960 --> 0:02:15.720
<v Speaker 7>Over his head.

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:17.359
<v Speaker 1>It's been all the wall.

0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:19.440
<v Speaker 5>It's been all already around third.

0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:23.640
<v Speaker 6>He will score stopping it second as Ward and the

0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:29.000
<v Speaker 6>Dodgers strike first. It has won to nothing. Carbyn Carroll

0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:31.520
<v Speaker 6>took a straight route to the ball.

0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:33.440
<v Speaker 1>It was over his head.

0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:37.720
<v Speaker 7>On a swinging by Ward and for Carol just took

0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:38.880
<v Speaker 7>the wrong route.

0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:40.600
<v Speaker 2>That is the top tier play of the game, brought

0:02:40.639 --> 0:02:43.160
<v Speaker 2>to by Arco Quality, top tier gas for less this game.

0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:46.240
<v Speaker 2>Right after Max Munsey exited the game after colliding with

0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:49.200
<v Speaker 2>first baseman Vargas, has both race to touch the first

0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:52.360
<v Speaker 2>base bag. Munsey not in the lineup tonight, but feeling

0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:54.480
<v Speaker 2>much better, does have a cut on his nose from

0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 2>the glasses that he hit Ryan Ward with the RBI

0:02:57.880 --> 0:03:00.680
<v Speaker 2>double right after the adult rushing with the r single

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:02.760
<v Speaker 2>immediately after that, and the Dodgers scored two in the

0:03:02.800 --> 0:03:04.959
<v Speaker 2>top of the fifth to take him two to nothing lead.

0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Justin Robleski would go the six innings, leave with the

0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:11.840
<v Speaker 2>possible victory in hand. Kyle Hurt pitched his seventh inning.

0:03:11.919 --> 0:03:14.480
<v Speaker 2>He put up a zero striking out two after giving

0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:16.880
<v Speaker 2>up a one out single. The eighth inning belge to

0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 2>one to Will Kline and it wasn't good. Corbyn Carroll

0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:22.639
<v Speaker 2>lead off home run, then a walk, and then two

0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:25.880
<v Speaker 2>batters later a single runners on second and third for

0:03:26.040 --> 0:03:28.360
<v Speaker 2>Alex Vessi, in which he gave up an RBI single

0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:31.720
<v Speaker 2>to Heraldo Perdomo. Both runs go to will Kline that

0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:34.160
<v Speaker 2>tied the game at two. To the top of the ninth,

0:03:34.200 --> 0:03:38.040
<v Speaker 2>we went. Dodgers went quietly. Bottom of the ninth. Tanner

0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 2>Scott on relief, got a strikeout to start off the

0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:44.480
<v Speaker 2>inning and then the next pitch to katl Marte.

0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:47.160
<v Speaker 6>Marte batting from the right side, the pitch to him

0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:51.080
<v Speaker 6>swe on and hammer two pleat fourth.

0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:53.600
<v Speaker 1>Down the line and go.

0:03:55.000 --> 0:03:58.800
<v Speaker 6>It's a walk off home run for katl Marte and

0:03:58.960 --> 0:04:02.680
<v Speaker 6>the Diamondbacks come back and win it three to two.

0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:07.320
<v Speaker 2>Diamondbacks come all the way back with a walk off

0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:11.160
<v Speaker 2>win as Paul Seawall gets to win and relieve Tanner

0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:14.080
<v Speaker 2>Scott gets tagged with the loss. Dodgers had a chance

0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:17.160
<v Speaker 2>to leave Arizona with the series win. And extending their

0:04:17.240 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 2>lead in the division. However, they leave the Desert with

0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:24.200
<v Speaker 2>the four games split after getting walked off. They leave

0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:26.280
<v Speaker 2>with a six and a half game lead over the

0:04:26.360 --> 0:04:28.920
<v Speaker 2>Snakes in the NL West as they sit at forty

0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:32.760
<v Speaker 2>and twenty three overall on this season and now quick

0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:35.960
<v Speaker 2>turnaround after flying back from Arizona last night, back at

0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:37.960
<v Speaker 2>it tonight for the start of a three game freeway

0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:42.160
<v Speaker 2>series against the last place Anaheim Angels. But don't overlook

0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:45.080
<v Speaker 2>the Halos as they are hungary for some payback after

0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:47.320
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers had a three game sweep down in Anaheim

0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:50.599
<v Speaker 2>a few weekends ago. Rookie Susaki on the mountain tonight

0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:52.920
<v Speaker 2>to start off the series first pitch of seven to

0:04:52.920 --> 0:04:54.880
<v Speaker 2>ten and with more, let's head out to the galloping

0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:57.640
<v Speaker 2>Ford broadcast booth as we say hello to Charlie Steiner

0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 2>and Rick Monday. Guys, all right, the Dodgers are.

0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:05.280
<v Speaker 8>Back home after splitting four games in Arizona with the Diamondbacks,

0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:08.720
<v Speaker 8>and his play begins tonight. The Dodgers at forty and

0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:11.400
<v Speaker 8>twenty three if a six and a half game lead

0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:15.080
<v Speaker 8>on the Diamondbacks seven over the Padres, and the Padres

0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 8>are really sinking fast. The Angels, on the other hand,

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:22.479
<v Speaker 8>are fifteen games under five hundred twenty four and thirty nine.

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:25.840
<v Speaker 8>They and the Rockies are tied with the worst record

0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:29.560
<v Speaker 8>in baseball. But the Dodgers return home breathing a sigh

0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:32.480
<v Speaker 8>of relief. Yes, they split the four in Arizona, but

0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:34.400
<v Speaker 8>Max Monsey, it could have been a whole.

0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:36.080
<v Speaker 9>Lot well, it could have been a lot worse. So

0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:38.520
<v Speaker 9>the Dodgers said they feel good about coming home. Obviously,

0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:40.480
<v Speaker 9>they won seven of their last eight here in the

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:43.320
<v Speaker 9>home turf. But with Max Munsey, he went through the

0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:48.040
<v Speaker 9>concussion protocol fine, that violent collision last night at first base,

0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:50.720
<v Speaker 9>he had to leave, so did the Diamondbacks first baseman.

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:54.600
<v Speaker 9>So for monthly, not in the starting lineup tonight. He

0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:57.400
<v Speaker 9>doesn't really know, he being Dave Roberts. If he can

0:05:57.480 --> 0:06:00.600
<v Speaker 9>swing the bat later on, we'll find out. But they

0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:03.360
<v Speaker 9>expect Max to maybe be in the starting lineup again

0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:03.960
<v Speaker 9>tomorrow night.

0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:06.760
<v Speaker 8>And so the Dodgers are sitting pretty and they've got

0:06:06.839 --> 0:06:12.200
<v Speaker 8>Susaki going against debt Meurs and just watching Otani now

0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:14.679
<v Speaker 8>it's unbelievable what he does.

0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:15.640
<v Speaker 7>Bat in his hand.

0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:20.160
<v Speaker 8>His last outing on the hill was merely spectacular. You know,

0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:23.360
<v Speaker 8>there are only seventeen batters in baseball hitting over three

0:06:23.440 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 8>hundred at the moment. Otani's one of them at three

0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:30.120
<v Speaker 8>oh one, ranking ninth and Wednesday night, three hits, a

0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:33.200
<v Speaker 8>couple of walks, got a nineteen game on Bay Streak.

0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:36.200
<v Speaker 8>Oh on the pitching, his RAS point seventy five.

0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:38.480
<v Speaker 9>Well, people may get tired of hearing us talk about him,

0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:41.720
<v Speaker 9>but I go to Heraldo Perdomo with the Arizona dim

0:06:41.760 --> 0:06:44.120
<v Speaker 9>of Max the other day when asked about O'tani goes,

0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:46.600
<v Speaker 9>he's a guy from a different planet. I mean, he

0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:49.080
<v Speaker 9>is just doing things. You don't dare take your eyes

0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:49.640
<v Speaker 9>off of him.

0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:53.240
<v Speaker 8>Otani red hot back in the lineup at the off

0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:58.520
<v Speaker 8>day yesterday, and he'll be leading off as usual. Couple

0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:02.400
<v Speaker 8>of mookie bets. It's been a real issue to this point.

0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:05.000
<v Speaker 8>He was zero four last night, comes into the game

0:07:05.080 --> 0:07:08.680
<v Speaker 8>hitting a buck eighty three, two nineteen against lefties, one

0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:12.440
<v Speaker 8>sixty nine against righty's Dodger Stadium, one ninety two. On

0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:14.440
<v Speaker 8>the road, he's hitting won seventy two.

0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:16.559
<v Speaker 7>He's got an issue.

0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:20.280
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, you know what I've noticed recently, taken notice of it.

0:07:20.400 --> 0:07:22.640
<v Speaker 9>He's taking a lot of first pitch strikes. I mean,

0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:25.400
<v Speaker 9>it looks like he's just with the mindset. He wants

0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:28.040
<v Speaker 9>to see what the pitcher is going to deliver. Does

0:07:28.120 --> 0:07:30.200
<v Speaker 9>that work for him? Does it work against him?

0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:30.760
<v Speaker 7>Don't really know.

0:07:31.080 --> 0:07:33.000
<v Speaker 9>He did hit a couple of balls very very hard

0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:35.600
<v Speaker 9>in that four game series. Happened to be Lion drives

0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:37.960
<v Speaker 9>right at people. Hopefully that's a sign of good things.

0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:40.120
<v Speaker 9>Not that it's right at people, but the fact that

0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:41.080
<v Speaker 9>he's hitting the ball hard.

0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:43.960
<v Speaker 8>Oh tany leading it off tonight, MOOKI will be hitting

0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:47.360

0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:42.880
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers swept the Angels a couple weekends ago in Anaheim.

0:08:43.200 --> 0:08:46.400
<v Speaker 2>Back at it tonight from the Ravine Rookie Sasaki, Redetmer's

0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:48.880
<v Speaker 2>the pitching matchup first pitch coming up at seven to

0:08:48.920 --> 0:08:52.560
<v Speaker 2>ten show, Hey Otani? Last night didn't play a rare

0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:56.800
<v Speaker 2>off night for Otani after the great outing that he

0:08:56.920 --> 0:08:59.600
<v Speaker 2>had on the mound and at the plate on Wednesday night.

0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:03.040
<v Speaker 2>O'tan he got a rest last night as a Dodgers

0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:05.160
<v Speaker 2>had a too nothing lead, only to see that lead

0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:08.079
<v Speaker 2>disappear and lose the finale in the desert. Three to two.

0:09:08.679 --> 0:09:12.520
<v Speaker 1>This is Kirston's Corner with Kirston Watson.

0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:15.160
<v Speaker 2>Hey Kirson now joins was brought to by Cars for

0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:18.319
<v Speaker 2>Kids Cards for Kids dot Org. That's Cars with a

0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:21.600
<v Speaker 2>K all right, Kirston, here we are quick turnaround after

0:09:21.679 --> 0:09:24.360
<v Speaker 2>a split in Arizona that in and in a disappointing

0:09:24.440 --> 0:09:27.280
<v Speaker 2>fashion last night with the walkoff loss. The Dodgers are

0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:29.720
<v Speaker 2>back at it tonight for the start of the Freeway series.

0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:32.080
<v Speaker 10>They sure are they looking to get going. And look,

0:09:32.160 --> 0:09:34.800
<v Speaker 10>as you mentioned, last night was a tough loss, especially

0:09:34.880 --> 0:09:38.960
<v Speaker 10>coming off of how well Justin Obleski pitched. He really

0:09:39.040 --> 0:09:41.680
<v Speaker 10>has been excellent as of blatant. So yet another really

0:09:41.760 --> 0:09:43.959
<v Speaker 10>fantastic outing, and you know, you put the team in

0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:46.280
<v Speaker 10>a position to win, you know, the offense for the

0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:49.480
<v Speaker 10>most they got run support early, but just went unable

0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:51.920
<v Speaker 10>to really continue to build on things outside of like

0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:53.079
<v Speaker 10>one or two innings.

0:09:53.240 --> 0:09:54.840
<v Speaker 1>So we saw a.

0:09:54.880 --> 0:09:57.480
<v Speaker 10>Comeback for the Diamondback. So now it's really just a

0:09:57.600 --> 0:10:00.600
<v Speaker 10>turn the page. But within that game, we also saw

0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:02.560
<v Speaker 10>a very scary collision. It was a head on collision

0:10:02.600 --> 0:10:07.079
<v Speaker 10>with Max Munsey and Diamondback's first baseman Ildemaro Vargas, and

0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:10.480
<v Speaker 10>with that both guys exited the game. Good news was

0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:13.560
<v Speaker 10>that Max Munsey afterwards said that he was a little

0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:16.080
<v Speaker 10>beat up in the moment. It definitely was a hard contact.

0:10:16.240 --> 0:10:18.400
<v Speaker 10>He did feel like after he caught his breath, he

0:10:18.559 --> 0:10:20.600
<v Speaker 10>was able to he could have gotten back out there

0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:23.760
<v Speaker 10>if need be. But Dave Roberts has said that he's

0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:25.920
<v Speaker 10>passed all concussion testing and the good news is that

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:28.199
<v Speaker 10>he should be back in the lineup tomorrow. So, you know,

0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:30.520
<v Speaker 10>as much as it has been a quick turnaround, and

0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:33.520
<v Speaker 10>guys are you know we got in late last night,

0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:35.400
<v Speaker 10>it's a little bit tired. They're looking to get this

0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:39.200
<v Speaker 10>one going because they do know that the Angels, maybe

0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:42.160
<v Speaker 10>not in the series that happened in Anaheim, but the

0:10:42.240 --> 0:10:45.240
<v Speaker 10>Angels do typically like to be aggressive, and I like

0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:46.760
<v Speaker 10>to get things going and find a way to pick

0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:48.480
<v Speaker 10>up a win against the Dodge what we saw last

0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:49.600
<v Speaker 10>year here at Dodger Stadium.

0:10:49.720 --> 0:10:52.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, the Dodgers are looking for a jolt tonight from somebody.

0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:55.000
<v Speaker 2>Hopefully it's rookie Sasaki, who feels like he's on that

0:10:55.160 --> 0:10:56.800
<v Speaker 2>trend of having some good starts here.

0:10:57.200 --> 0:10:57.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:10:57.559 --> 0:10:59.960
<v Speaker 10>I think that's the biggest thing is he just ultimately

0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:02.400
<v Speaker 10>he's in a position where he's truly building off of

0:11:02.520 --> 0:11:04.640
<v Speaker 10>each outing. He got the velocity to take back up,

0:11:04.920 --> 0:11:06.959
<v Speaker 10>you know, mechanically, he feels like he's in sync. We're

0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:10.920
<v Speaker 10>seeing how how he's made the small additions and I

0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:13.160
<v Speaker 10>guess changes to his pitch mix. How that has truly

0:11:13.240 --> 0:11:16.280
<v Speaker 10>been beneficial for him. So he's in a great spot

0:11:16.360 --> 0:11:19.079
<v Speaker 10>right now. Recently there's been a lot of conversation about

0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:22.400
<v Speaker 10>how he's gotten stronger and just really using his full

0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:25.640
<v Speaker 10>body on the mound. So we're seeing that, we're seeing

0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:27.600
<v Speaker 10>the results, and this really is, you know, a great

0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:29.760
<v Speaker 10>matchup for him in which he can continue to prove

0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:32.920
<v Speaker 10>what he's doing, how he's building. And also he could

0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:35.000
<v Speaker 10>be in a potentially in a position where he could

0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:37.600
<v Speaker 10>gain a little bit more trust with getting deeper into

0:11:37.679 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 10>the game. And we can see a position where maybe

0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:42.199
<v Speaker 10>if the pitch counts in a good spot, we could

0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:44.800
<v Speaker 10>see Dave Roberts potentially challenging him to get a little

0:11:44.800 --> 0:11:45.199
<v Speaker 10>bit deeper.

0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:46.240
<v Speaker 2>So hopefully we can see.

0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:48.559
<v Speaker 10>Him whether it's beating through six or maybe even getting

0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:49.240
<v Speaker 10>into the seventh.

0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:51.320
<v Speaker 2>Let's hope he can give him some length to night,

0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:53.400
<v Speaker 2>because this Dodgers team needs a little bit of a

0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:56.840
<v Speaker 2>jolt coming after that four game series in the Desert. Kirston,

0:11:56.880 --> 0:11:58.559

<v Speaker 7>Luster to think. I think we'll be fine.

0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:59.600
<v Speaker 11>I think so he'll play tomorrow and Sunday, then we'll

0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:01.920
<v Speaker 11>be off on Monday for travel and then I think,

0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:03.439
<v Speaker 11>you know, he should be good to go after that.

0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:07.839
<v Speaker 11>We'll see, we'll see. You know, we're not hitting on

0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:10.640
<v Speaker 11>the field today. We got in late, so we got

0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:13.160
<v Speaker 11>some vilo. I'm sure he's gonna crank it up at

0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:15.439
<v Speaker 11>some point in time today and then we'll I'll have

0:14:15.600 --> 0:14:16.360
<v Speaker 11>that answer later.

0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:20.240
<v Speaker 1>I didn't always see that have trouble with the Angels,

0:14:20.640 --> 0:14:20.840
<v Speaker 1>and what.

0:14:20.840 --> 0:14:21.720
<v Speaker 2>Are you expecting today?

0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:23.520
<v Speaker 7>Dodgers win.

0:14:24.520 --> 0:14:27.160
<v Speaker 11>You know, they play us tough. But you know, we

0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:29.640
<v Speaker 11>had a good time down there in Anaheim, played well

0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:31.560
<v Speaker 11>and so hopefully we can keep that going tonight.

0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Started running today.

0:14:35.680 --> 0:14:38.440
<v Speaker 11>I talked to Blake briefly and he said he started

0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:41.600
<v Speaker 11>throwing today, so he was excited about that. Came out

0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:46.600
<v Speaker 11>of it well, proje what happened from here? I think,

0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:48.800
<v Speaker 11>you know, I think, like a lot of times, it's

0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:51.560
<v Speaker 11>just kind of when when a guy is obviously coming

0:14:51.600 --> 0:14:54.360
<v Speaker 11>off surgery is different than you know, an off season,

0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:57.000
<v Speaker 11>but the build up is like any season.

0:14:57.080 --> 0:14:58.320
<v Speaker 7>There it's the rehab part of it.

0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:03.800
<v Speaker 11>But the progression, I don't know about the timeline, but

0:15:03.960 --> 0:15:05.480
<v Speaker 11>it's gonna it's gonna be a way. We're gonna make

0:15:05.520 --> 0:15:07.560
<v Speaker 11>sure that we we kind of take care of him,

0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:10.040
<v Speaker 11>But I know Blake's gonna want to, you know, speed

0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:11.040
<v Speaker 11>this process up.

0:15:11.800 --> 0:15:12.760
<v Speaker 8>Two certain situation.

0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:15.800
<v Speaker 2>But how much did you guys follow up per school situation?

0:15:16.000 --> 0:15:20.440
<v Speaker 7>You're looking to hear what settles happen? We don't. We don't.

0:15:20.680 --> 0:15:23.720
<v Speaker 11>That's uh, I mean, honestly, that's honestly, I think for

0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:26.720
<v Speaker 11>certainly for me, it's just more of just trying to

0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:30.560
<v Speaker 11>think about who we have on our roster, you know,

0:15:30.840 --> 0:15:33.640
<v Speaker 11>being mindful of those guys and how we backfeel you

0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:36.880
<v Speaker 11>know internally that Yeah, that's kind of honestly.

0:15:36.600 --> 0:15:37.880

0:16:38.600 --> 0:16:40.840
<v Speaker 2>night with Maximunsey came out of the game. I know

0:16:40.920 --> 0:16:43.600
<v Speaker 2>you talked to him afterwards and you've seen him today.

0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:44.520
<v Speaker 2>What's the latest.

0:16:45.160 --> 0:16:47.880
<v Speaker 5>Dave Roberts said this was something that he talked about

0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:51.160
<v Speaker 5>last night, that he planned on giving Munsey today off

0:16:51.320 --> 0:16:54.840
<v Speaker 5>and he should be back in the starting lineup tomorrow night.

0:16:54.920 --> 0:16:57.920
<v Speaker 5>But here's what Munsey had to say after the game

0:16:58.040 --> 0:16:59.880
<v Speaker 5>last night inside the Dodger Club.

0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:03.920
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, you know crumble on the right side.

0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:05.480
<v Speaker 4>I saw the picture didn't go off the mound, and

0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:07.879
<v Speaker 4>I saw he fielded it kind of running backwards, so

0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:11.840
<v Speaker 4>busting a hard out of the box, and as I'm

0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:14.120
<v Speaker 4>running down the line, I saw him in foul territory.

0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:15.840
<v Speaker 7>So I got to the inside of the.

0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:18.840
<v Speaker 4>Bag and I thought he was gonna stay, you know,

0:17:19.440 --> 0:17:22.520
<v Speaker 4>on that side, and uh it felt like neither of

0:17:22.600 --> 0:17:24.879
<v Speaker 4>us knew which direction we were going to go, and

0:17:24.960 --> 0:17:28.280
<v Speaker 4>then we both went the wrong direction, and uh yeah, bang.

0:17:29.760 --> 0:17:31.920
<v Speaker 4>You know, I obviously I really hope, uh, you know,

0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:36.160
<v Speaker 4>Vargus is okay. I sent something over to him, you know, hope,

0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:38.160
<v Speaker 4>hoping he's doing all right and he's not not too bad,

0:17:39.160 --> 0:17:44.560
<v Speaker 4>but just uh yeah, bad, bad situation that looked like

0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:46.560
<v Speaker 4>neither of us knew which which direction to go.

0:17:47.640 --> 0:17:49.320
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, And the one thing to keep in mind to

0:17:49.400 --> 0:17:52.520
<v Speaker 5>him is the fact that Vargas is not a veteran

0:17:52.640 --> 0:17:55.080
<v Speaker 5>for a baseman. In fact, you just started playing for

0:17:55.160 --> 0:17:59.120
<v Speaker 5>a space and Tory Lovello, the Diamondbacks manager, said after

0:17:59.200 --> 0:18:02.359
<v Speaker 5>the game yesterday that Vargas should have slid towards the

0:18:02.440 --> 0:18:06.639
<v Speaker 5>first space bag or the pitcher fell asleep and was

0:18:07.200 --> 0:18:10.600
<v Speaker 5>a spectator. Ryan Nelson was not covering first space that

0:18:10.680 --> 0:18:13.920
<v Speaker 5>would have avoided a collision as well, but tapping into

0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:16.800
<v Speaker 5>a guy that knew how to handle that position pretty well.

0:18:17.280 --> 0:18:19.600
<v Speaker 5>Our very own Eric carross I sent him a text

0:18:19.640 --> 0:18:23.080
<v Speaker 5>and he sent back that Unfortunately both had the same idea.

0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:25.680
<v Speaker 5>They were both heading to the dugout side of the base,

0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:28.399
<v Speaker 5>and it looked like they both moved inside at the

0:18:28.480 --> 0:18:31.959
<v Speaker 5>last minute to avoid contacts. So they were arriving at

0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:34.320
<v Speaker 5>the same time and took the same lane, and that's

0:18:34.400 --> 0:18:38.000
<v Speaker 5>when you got that type of football type of collision

0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:40.120
<v Speaker 5>with Max Munsey and Delmo Vargas.

0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:43.119
<v Speaker 2>Scary play. Thankfully, everybody is okay. David is brought to

<v Speaker 2>your Southern California for Dealer today or by for now

0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:01.320
<v Speaker 2>dot Com Rookies sosact. He gets to start tonight DV

0:19:01.760 --> 0:19:04.040
<v Speaker 2>and this is a Susaki. It kind of feels like

0:19:04.160 --> 0:19:06.280
<v Speaker 2>he's getting better and better every single start.

0:19:06.840 --> 0:19:08.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's what guys around the team have told me

0:19:09.000 --> 0:19:12.440
<v Speaker 5>that there's seemed more confidence out of Roki Sasaki, more

0:19:12.480 --> 0:19:15.720
<v Speaker 5>of a competitor because in Japan he was just head

0:19:15.800 --> 0:19:18.680
<v Speaker 5>and shoulders better than the guys that he was facing,

0:19:19.160 --> 0:19:22.040
<v Speaker 5>and he didn't really have to grind through starts, grind

0:19:22.119 --> 0:19:26.119
<v Speaker 5>through seasons. And Travis Smith, the Dodgers' strength coach, was

0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:29.919
<v Speaker 5>pointed out by Dave Roberts after the last Roki Sasaki

0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:32.680
<v Speaker 5>start that Roki's been working with him going back to

0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:36.800
<v Speaker 5>last year to be a lot stronger, stronger based, stronger

0:19:37.000 --> 0:19:39.880
<v Speaker 5>upper body, and talking to Travis, he said, yeah, you're

0:19:39.880 --> 0:19:42.000
<v Speaker 5>starting to see the fruits of all that work that

0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:44.760
<v Speaker 5>he's put in with the weight training to get bigger

0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:48.280
<v Speaker 5>and stronger, and in turn he's become more athletic on

0:19:48.440 --> 0:19:51.680
<v Speaker 5>the mound. And Dalton Rushing, who has connected with him

0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:55.280
<v Speaker 5>really well, he's not catching tonight, but Dalton's told me

0:19:55.720 --> 0:19:59.480
<v Speaker 5>there have been times in the bullpen before Roki what

0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:01.600
<v Speaker 5>he belie leaves is going to be his last warm

0:20:01.680 --> 0:20:04.720
<v Speaker 5>up throw. If Dalton Rushing's not happy with it, he

0:20:04.920 --> 0:20:07.760
<v Speaker 5>shouts at Roki one more, give me a really good

0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:11.600
<v Speaker 5>one more. And at times Dalton said he has actually

0:20:11.800 --> 0:20:14.520
<v Speaker 5>grabbed Roki and said let's go to get that fire

0:20:14.640 --> 0:20:17.560
<v Speaker 5>lit underneath him before they head out of that bullpen.

0:20:17.760 --> 0:20:20.760
<v Speaker 5>So it takes a village tim to get Roki Sasaki

0:20:20.840 --> 0:20:23.440
<v Speaker 5>to where he's at. It's been development at the major

0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:25.879
<v Speaker 5>league level and it's continuing tonight.

0:20:26.080 --> 0:20:28.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it definitely looks like a guy who is continuing

0:20:28.119 --> 0:20:30.080
<v Speaker 2>to grow up right before our eyes. All Right, DV

<v Speaker 7>No, this is laundry stop.

0:24:45.040 --> 0:24:48.440
<v Speaker 9>That's exactly what In fact, today I thought, well, you're

0:24:48.440 --> 0:24:49.880
<v Speaker 9>gonna stop it, get the car washed.

0:24:49.880 --> 0:24:52.000
<v Speaker 7>It's a win a minute. We're only time for three days,

0:24:52.080 --> 0:24:54.119
<v Speaker 7>then we leave. It's gonna be dirty when it come back,

0:24:54.160 --> 0:24:55.119
<v Speaker 7>so just leave it dirty.

0:24:55.359 --> 0:24:57.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's a great plan. That's why you're a veterank you.

0:24:57.800 --> 0:24:58.840
<v Speaker 2>How many times have you.

0:24:58.880 --> 0:25:02.280
<v Speaker 5>Looked at the replay of that collision between Max month

0:25:02.320 --> 0:25:03.240
<v Speaker 5>seing the Diamondbacks.

0:25:03.280 --> 0:25:06.960
<v Speaker 9>First, I have actually not seen it other than right

0:25:07.240 --> 0:25:09.720
<v Speaker 9>after it took place, and I was listening just a

0:25:09.800 --> 0:25:10.399
<v Speaker 9>moment ago.

0:25:11.560 --> 0:25:14.560
<v Speaker 7>You were you're talking to to Max. That was an.

0:25:14.520 --> 0:25:20.000
<v Speaker 9>Extremely violent collision, and thankfully both were able to leave

0:25:20.119 --> 0:25:23.159
<v Speaker 9>under their own power. The question is going to be

0:25:23.320 --> 0:25:26.000
<v Speaker 9>is that the lingering effects on both of them and

0:25:26.480 --> 0:25:29.760
<v Speaker 9>and Max gave the explanation. He thought that the first

0:25:29.800 --> 0:25:32.399
<v Speaker 9>base who was normally not playing that way, was going

0:25:32.480 --> 0:25:33.879
<v Speaker 9>to go to the other part of the bag, and

0:25:34.040 --> 0:25:36.280
<v Speaker 9>Max was attempting to avoid that.

0:25:36.480 --> 0:25:38.880
<v Speaker 7>Before that that was like the head on train collision.

0:25:39.040 --> 0:25:39.879
<v Speaker 2>It certainly was.

0:25:40.280 --> 0:25:42.800
<v Speaker 5>I was wondering, you've seen a lot of baseball, You've

0:25:42.800 --> 0:25:45.120
<v Speaker 5>been involved in a lot of baseball. Did you ever

0:25:45.280 --> 0:25:48.000
<v Speaker 5>have a play close to what we saw yesterday?

0:25:48.000 --> 0:25:49.560
<v Speaker 7>No, and not like that. Not like that.

0:25:50.000 --> 0:25:54.200
<v Speaker 9>I immediately thought of, you know, collisions that we have seen,

0:25:55.920 --> 0:25:59.920
<v Speaker 9>you know other times, you know, we're maybe a first

0:26:00.040 --> 0:26:02.640
<v Speaker 9>basement comes across the bag and receiving a high throw.

0:26:03.000 --> 0:26:05.480
<v Speaker 9>I think of Cliff Floyd as a matter of fact,

0:26:05.560 --> 0:26:08.080
<v Speaker 9>when he's at Montreal, who had to reach for a

0:26:08.280 --> 0:26:11.159
<v Speaker 9>ball towards the home plate side of first base and

0:26:11.320 --> 0:26:13.520
<v Speaker 9>as he was reaching out, the runner was going by

0:26:13.560 --> 0:26:14.399
<v Speaker 9>and it fractured his.

0:26:14.440 --> 0:26:15.560
<v Speaker 7>Wrists very severely.

0:26:16.440 --> 0:26:19.440
<v Speaker 9>But I don't recall seeing a head on collision like

0:26:19.520 --> 0:26:22.000
<v Speaker 9>we saw yesterday, and it was I mean, it was

0:26:22.119 --> 0:26:23.000
<v Speaker 9>upsetting to see it.

0:26:23.440 --> 0:26:26.760
<v Speaker 5>You talk about never being a spectator. Tory Lavello called

0:26:26.760 --> 0:26:29.880
<v Speaker 5>out his picture yesterday for being one because he said

0:26:29.960 --> 0:26:32.800
<v Speaker 5>that collision could have been avoided if the picture would

0:26:32.840 --> 0:26:33.920
<v Speaker 5>have covered first base.

0:26:34.000 --> 0:26:34.160
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

0:26:34.280 --> 0:26:37.040
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, but if the picture cannot be an observer, he's

0:26:37.080 --> 0:26:38.440
<v Speaker 9>going to be an active participant.

0:26:38.480 --> 0:26:41.639
<v Speaker 7>And that just did not happen at the time. The

0:26:41.760 --> 0:26:44.080
<v Speaker 7>Dodgers now they have to come on.

0:26:44.480 --> 0:26:46.639
<v Speaker 9>You know, they're playing against the team that trust me,

0:26:47.160 --> 0:26:49.120
<v Speaker 9>you hear this from time to time, but teams play

0:26:49.200 --> 0:26:52.480
<v Speaker 9>up to the competition, or for the Dodgers, don't play

0:26:52.560 --> 0:26:54.680
<v Speaker 9>down to the competition. And I don't mean that from

0:26:54.680 --> 0:26:57.720
<v Speaker 9>a demeaning standboy, I'm talking about just the record, just

0:26:57.800 --> 0:27:01.159
<v Speaker 9>the record itself. The Angels will do everything, along with

0:27:01.240 --> 0:27:04.080
<v Speaker 9>everybody else to try and beat the Dodgers. I go

0:27:04.200 --> 0:27:06.159
<v Speaker 9>back to last year if people got upset with the

0:27:06.480 --> 0:27:09.440
<v Speaker 9>comment that Mookie Ben said, he said that every team

0:27:09.520 --> 0:27:11.359
<v Speaker 9>that they play is going to be like their World Series.

0:27:11.440 --> 0:27:13.440
<v Speaker 7>He was right here, he was the Angel.

0:27:13.480 --> 0:27:15.320
<v Speaker 2>There's them also, I mean, they're already here.

0:27:15.440 --> 0:27:16.760
<v Speaker 7>For example the next road trip.

0:27:17.320 --> 0:27:19.959
<v Speaker 9>Trust me, they're already billboarding in Pittsburgh and have been

0:27:20.000 --> 0:27:22.160
<v Speaker 9>for a number of days. Hey, the back to back

0:27:22.200 --> 0:27:25.680
<v Speaker 9>world champions are coming into town. That is just what

0:27:26.000 --> 0:27:28.600
<v Speaker 9>happens when you are part of an elite ball club,

0:27:28.680 --> 0:27:33.200
<v Speaker 9>an elite organization, Your expatients or expectations are very high.

0:27:33.680 --> 0:27:36.440
<v Speaker 9>So yes, indeed, you're going to have teams that will

0:27:36.520 --> 0:27:40.200
<v Speaker 9>play up to the competition rather than to remain stagnated

0:27:40.240 --> 0:27:41.680
<v Speaker 9>where they are, whatever standings.

0:27:41.800 --> 0:27:43.840
<v Speaker 5>You know, some players on the Dodgers have told me

0:27:44.320 --> 0:27:48.040
<v Speaker 5>it's unrealistic to expect them to raise their adrenaline level

0:27:48.160 --> 0:27:51.560
<v Speaker 5>to the opposition like a Pirates or like the Angels.

0:27:51.680 --> 0:27:54.480
<v Speaker 5>But it feels like being at home with fifty thousand

0:27:54.600 --> 0:27:57.480
<v Speaker 5>plus shouldn't be that hard to get some adrenaline going.

0:27:57.520 --> 0:28:00.400
<v Speaker 9>At all, especially just driving into the stadium. You're kind

0:28:00.400 --> 0:28:02.840
<v Speaker 9>of building up on top of it. So you know,

0:28:03.080 --> 0:28:07.159
<v Speaker 9>it's one of those things. In Rookie Sasaki tonight and

0:28:07.760 --> 0:28:10.720
<v Speaker 9>how he has developed, because remember he's gone from the

0:28:10.880 --> 0:28:12.680
<v Speaker 9>fork ball. He called it a splitter, but he's gone

0:28:12.680 --> 0:28:15.800
<v Speaker 9>from the forkball deep within that v the middle finger

0:28:15.840 --> 0:28:18.880
<v Speaker 9>in the middle and the index finger to a little

0:28:18.880 --> 0:28:21.320
<v Speaker 9>bit more out towards the fingertips. Now it is really,

0:28:21.480 --> 0:28:24.000
<v Speaker 9>it truly is a splitter. He's shown that he has

0:28:24.040 --> 0:28:25.960
<v Speaker 9>better control of it. He shows that he has better

0:28:26.440 --> 0:28:29.639
<v Speaker 9>really I think confidence in it and confidence. I know

0:28:29.720 --> 0:28:32.160
<v Speaker 9>you were talking earlier about the confidence. You can see

0:28:32.520 --> 0:28:34.760
<v Speaker 9>more confidence from Sissaki on the mound right now.

0:28:34.960 --> 0:28:37.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, we'll see how this one goes as well, because

0:28:37.520 --> 0:28:40.640
<v Speaker 5>it feels like it's development work in progress every start

0:28:40.720 --> 0:28:41.000
<v Speaker 5>for him.

0:28:41.160 --> 0:28:44.000
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, it is, so you don't have to get guitar

0:28:44.120 --> 0:28:44.560
<v Speaker 7>washed the bar.

0:28:44.800 --> 0:28:46.720
<v Speaker 5>Okay, thanks, Rick, Wait till we get back off the

0:28:46.760 --> 0:28:47.080
<v Speaker 5>next show.

0:28:47.120 --> 0:28:47.320
<v Speaker 3>Trip.

0:28:47.440 --> 0:28:49.920
<v Speaker 5>You and Charlie have been developed me, developing me for

0:28:50.040 --> 0:28:52.880
<v Speaker 5>fifteen years, so I feel like every every day is

0:28:52.960 --> 0:28:53.440
<v Speaker 5>a new day.

0:28:53.600 --> 0:28:56.080
<v Speaker 7>Well your response, We've got at least another five years

0:28:56.160 --> 0:28:56.640
<v Speaker 7>of work to do.

0:28:56.880 --> 0:28:58.280
<v Speaker 2>Okay, sounds good.

0:29:00.480 --> 0:29:00.800
<v Speaker 7>Studio.

0:29:00.960 --> 0:29:02.880
<v Speaker 2>All right, thanks a lot, DV. Thank you MO. Dodgers

<v Speaker 2>deep into this pitching matchup. Charlie and Rick will be

0:29:11.960 --> 0:29:13.760
<v Speaker 2>back with the keys of the game. But up next

0:29:13.840 --> 0:29:17.520
<v Speaker 2>we go high and tie with alex Vesia Dodgers Angels,

0:29:17.640 --> 0:29:20.600
<v Speaker 2>Game one of the Freeway Series from Dodger Stadium. I'm

0:29:20.640 --> 0:29:22.400
<v Speaker 2>Tim Kates at the back to back World Series champion

0:29:22.440 --> 0:29:23.480
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers Audio Network.

0:29:27.400 --> 0:29:32.080

<v Speaker 3>the official home of LA Dodgers Baseball.

0:29:37.440 --> 0:29:41.120
<v Speaker 2>It's the Dodgers and Angels Freeway Series. Rookie Sasaki read

0:29:41.200 --> 0:29:44.800
<v Speaker 2>Detmer's the pitching matchup. First pitch from Dodger Stadium. Miss

0:29:44.840 --> 0:29:45.840
<v Speaker 2>coming up at sevent ten.

0:29:47.800 --> 0:29:51.520
<v Speaker 3>And now what will likely be best fielding insults from

0:29:51.560 --> 0:29:52.440
<v Speaker 3>a Dodger player.

0:29:52.520 --> 0:29:53.760
<v Speaker 2>It's an engagement of endearment.

0:29:53.840 --> 0:29:57.240
<v Speaker 1>This is high and tugged. Well.

0:29:57.280 --> 0:29:59.720
<v Speaker 5>We've been to Downy Hunday together, We've been to Benny

0:29:59.760 --> 0:30:02.600
<v Speaker 5>Boy Brewing together. How about being in the Dodger dugout

0:30:02.680 --> 0:30:07.040
<v Speaker 5>together with two time World Series champion Alex Vesia. You

0:30:07.160 --> 0:30:10.120
<v Speaker 5>really missed me a lot. I could tell Hi, Dave,

0:30:10.440 --> 0:30:10.960
<v Speaker 5>how you doing.

0:30:11.120 --> 0:30:11.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing good?

0:30:11.720 --> 0:30:11.920
<v Speaker 14>Are you?

0:30:12.160 --> 0:30:13.400
<v Speaker 7>Everything's great? How about you?

0:30:13.680 --> 0:30:15.720
<v Speaker 5>I mean, obviously we don't get a chance to talk

0:30:15.760 --> 0:30:18.520
<v Speaker 5>too much about the pitching when we're having fun away

0:30:18.520 --> 0:30:21.280
<v Speaker 5>from the stadium, But at this stage of the season,

0:30:21.720 --> 0:30:23.320
<v Speaker 5>where would you say you're you're feeling?

0:30:24.120 --> 0:30:25.400
<v Speaker 7>Honestly, I'm feeling pretty good.

0:30:25.960 --> 0:30:26.120
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:30:26.280 --> 0:30:28.040
<v Speaker 14>We try to take it one day at a time.

0:30:29.520 --> 0:30:32.280
<v Speaker 14>I mean, we have the family trip coming up Pittsburgh

0:30:32.320 --> 0:30:34.480
<v Speaker 14>in Chicago, so that'll be fun. Happy to have Ka

0:30:34.640 --> 0:30:37.160
<v Speaker 14>on board, and you know, just trying to take one

0:30:37.240 --> 0:30:41.760
<v Speaker 14>day at a time. We got the Angels today, tomorrow Sunday.

0:30:41.520 --> 0:30:43.200
<v Speaker 7>So let's go get three wins.

0:30:43.240 --> 0:30:45.160
<v Speaker 5>Why would you do that to your family, take them

0:30:45.200 --> 0:30:45.800
<v Speaker 5>to Pittsburgh.

0:30:46.520 --> 0:30:50.000
<v Speaker 14>Well, technically that was Kay's choice to go to Pittsburgh.

0:30:51.800 --> 0:30:54.040
<v Speaker 14>I think they've got some stuff planned, the wives and

0:30:54.600 --> 0:30:58.800
<v Speaker 14>families have some stuff planned. But hey, yeah, she wanted to.

0:30:58.840 --> 0:31:00.880
<v Speaker 14>I think she's never been there. She's never been to

0:31:01.120 --> 0:31:03.040
<v Speaker 14>the White Sox, so she's like, I need to check

0:31:03.080 --> 0:31:06.280
<v Speaker 14>that off. The bucket list, so told her, let's go, all.

0:31:06.240 --> 0:31:09.400
<v Speaker 5>Right, I vesia trip to Pittsburgh and Chicago coming up.

0:31:09.840 --> 0:31:12.240
<v Speaker 5>How are you doing this at this stage of your career?

0:31:12.320 --> 0:31:14.320
<v Speaker 5>You still have a lot left in the tank. A

0:31:14.360 --> 0:31:16.400
<v Speaker 5>lot of people regard you as one of the best

0:31:16.480 --> 0:31:18.320
<v Speaker 5>relievers in baseball.

0:31:18.520 --> 0:31:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Thanks, but you appreciate that.

0:31:20.240 --> 0:31:23.200
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I mean, but you're not the guy that throws

0:31:23.320 --> 0:31:25.560
<v Speaker 5>ninety seven ninety eight, but you find a way.

0:31:25.840 --> 0:31:27.080
<v Speaker 7>Nope, yeah, I don't.

0:31:27.160 --> 0:31:29.640
<v Speaker 14>I don't throw very hard, Dave, but I think the

0:31:29.840 --> 0:31:33.360
<v Speaker 14>easiest thing is just to make sure the hitter is

0:31:33.440 --> 0:31:35.920
<v Speaker 14>guessing right, so it's being able to throw my slider.

0:31:35.720 --> 0:31:36.200
<v Speaker 7>For a strike.

0:31:36.800 --> 0:31:40.040
<v Speaker 14>I've thrown the changeup well this year as well, you know,

0:31:40.320 --> 0:31:43.400
<v Speaker 14>but I love throwing the fastball. It's just something that,

0:31:43.680 --> 0:31:45.400
<v Speaker 14>you know, I've always felt like I've had a good

0:31:45.680 --> 0:31:48.720
<v Speaker 14>feeling for and obviously my slider and my changeup have

0:31:48.760 --> 0:31:49.240
<v Speaker 14>gotten better.

0:31:49.400 --> 0:31:49.520
<v Speaker 11>You know.

0:31:49.560 --> 0:31:52.560
<v Speaker 14>I have to thank the Dodger pitching coaches for helping

0:31:52.600 --> 0:31:55.360
<v Speaker 14>me that and developed that over the years. And you know,

0:31:55.800 --> 0:31:58.200
<v Speaker 14>I love being on this team and this year has

0:31:58.240 --> 0:31:58.960
<v Speaker 14>been really special.

0:31:59.320 --> 0:32:01.600
<v Speaker 5>How much do you trust your change up these days?

0:32:02.120 --> 0:32:05.600
<v Speaker 14>I've I mean lover the last few outings, will and rushing.

0:32:05.600 --> 0:32:07.600
<v Speaker 14>I've called it a lot more so I think it's

0:32:08.080 --> 0:32:11.240
<v Speaker 14>they're trusting it more. For myself, I'm just I'll go

0:32:11.320 --> 0:32:12.200
<v Speaker 14>out there and just throw it.

0:32:12.320 --> 0:32:12.800
<v Speaker 7>You know, I'm not.

0:32:13.000 --> 0:32:14.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't really think too much about it.

0:32:14.520 --> 0:32:17.120
<v Speaker 14>But yeah, it's been it's been good.

0:32:17.520 --> 0:32:19.400
<v Speaker 5>It seems like that's the new pitch a lot of

0:32:19.440 --> 0:32:20.360
<v Speaker 5>guys are coming up with.

0:32:20.840 --> 0:32:21.080
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

0:32:21.240 --> 0:32:24.800
<v Speaker 14>I think like last year was the splitter for like

0:32:24.920 --> 0:32:27.320
<v Speaker 14>right hand a lot more right handers. I think for myself,

0:32:28.240 --> 0:32:31.520
<v Speaker 14>adding the changeup is is he helped me get right

0:32:31.560 --> 0:32:32.920
<v Speaker 14>handers and left handers out.

0:32:33.000 --> 0:32:35.560
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, the third pitch is always nice.

0:32:35.760 --> 0:32:38.200
<v Speaker 5>But Alex VESI, when you talk about him, you talk

0:32:38.240 --> 0:32:40.840
<v Speaker 5>about the rising fastball, the spin rate.

0:32:41.640 --> 0:32:43.720
<v Speaker 1>How do you get the baseball to do that?

0:32:44.000 --> 0:32:46.240
<v Speaker 5>And is it still always a work in progress?

0:32:46.440 --> 0:32:48.360
<v Speaker 14>Yeah, I mean it's something that I feel like I've

0:32:48.400 --> 0:32:54.640
<v Speaker 14>always kind of had, even in college in the minor leagues. Yeah,

0:32:54.680 --> 0:32:58.360
<v Speaker 14>I can't really tell you, like I just kind of throw.

0:32:58.520 --> 0:33:00.560
<v Speaker 14>It's just my way of throwing. I guess I'm not

0:33:00.640 --> 0:33:00.960
<v Speaker 14>too sure.

0:33:01.080 --> 0:33:04.320
<v Speaker 5>But is it like how Kenley Jansen just naturally would

0:33:04.320 --> 0:33:05.360
<v Speaker 5>throw a cut fastball?

0:33:05.560 --> 0:33:09.680
<v Speaker 14>So yeah, sort of because I don't like train that

0:33:09.920 --> 0:33:11.920
<v Speaker 14>you don't really train it. It's kind of just naturally

0:33:12.000 --> 0:33:15.640
<v Speaker 14>within the throw. I think this spin efficiency on the

0:33:15.680 --> 0:33:18.720
<v Speaker 14>baseball is what helps to because it's it's very close

0:33:18.800 --> 0:33:20.760
<v Speaker 14>to one hundred percent, so it means it matches like

0:33:20.840 --> 0:33:24.600
<v Speaker 14>my arm slot pretty well. But yeah, I mean if

0:33:24.640 --> 0:33:26.240
<v Speaker 14>we get into data analytics, we'll.

0:33:26.120 --> 0:33:28.160
<v Speaker 5>Be here for at least an hour, Dave, So you

0:33:28.280 --> 0:33:29.440
<v Speaker 5>know that's way over my head.

0:33:29.680 --> 0:33:30.680
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, yeah, yeah.

0:33:31.840 --> 0:33:34.920
<v Speaker 5>Alex Vesia is our guest before first pitch of the

0:33:35.000 --> 0:33:37.960
<v Speaker 5>Freeways series. One guy I wanted to ask you about

0:33:38.080 --> 0:33:41.200
<v Speaker 5>because he's so quiet and he's been so vital to

0:33:41.280 --> 0:33:44.360
<v Speaker 5>the success of your bullpen is a Gardo Enriquez. What

0:33:44.520 --> 0:33:48.040
<v Speaker 5>can you tell us about a Gardo super human?

0:33:48.920 --> 0:33:51.400
<v Speaker 14>Just when you see Mountain Mount you're like, oh, that's

0:33:51.440 --> 0:33:54.480
<v Speaker 14>a big guy, right, like stocky huge, you know, big shoulders.

0:33:55.320 --> 0:33:57.560
<v Speaker 7>When you're next to him, I feel so small.

0:33:58.040 --> 0:34:00.160
<v Speaker 14>He's just you know, he's a unit it.

0:34:02.000 --> 0:34:05.440
<v Speaker 7>He throwing one hundred and four. Yeah, but he is.

0:34:05.640 --> 0:34:08.120
<v Speaker 14>He is quiet, so we do like to kind of

0:34:08.120 --> 0:34:10.360
<v Speaker 14>get him out of his shell. Uh, Chico and Hammer

0:34:10.440 --> 0:34:12.680
<v Speaker 14>in the bullpen. They definitely get him out of his shell.

0:34:12.800 --> 0:34:16.440
<v Speaker 14>And that's it's fun there I'm really happy that, you know,

0:34:16.480 --> 0:34:18.320
<v Speaker 14>we're able to have fun with him, and but he

0:34:18.400 --> 0:34:20.200
<v Speaker 14>is quiet. He's a quite guy, but it's just that's

0:34:20.280 --> 0:34:20.600
<v Speaker 14>his thing.

0:34:20.800 --> 0:34:22.640
<v Speaker 5>Do you feel like he's starting to come into his.

0:34:22.719 --> 0:34:26.359
<v Speaker 14>Own Yeah, yeah, absolutely, I think you know, last year

0:34:28.480 --> 0:34:30.520
<v Speaker 14>he was hurt for a little while, so like this year,

0:34:30.600 --> 0:34:32.720
<v Speaker 14>being hopefully all the way all the way through the season.

0:34:34.440 --> 0:34:37.239
<v Speaker 14>You know, his success and you know he's learning, and

0:34:38.000 --> 0:34:40.120
<v Speaker 14>you know, he had a quick rise up here, you know.

0:34:40.280 --> 0:34:43.920
<v Speaker 14>And the one thing he comes into the ballpark every

0:34:43.960 --> 0:34:46.120
<v Speaker 14>day with a good head on his shoulders.

0:34:45.960 --> 0:34:47.360
<v Speaker 7>And he has a really good routine.

0:34:48.239 --> 0:34:50.000
<v Speaker 14>You know, he's always you know, has has just a

0:34:50.080 --> 0:34:53.279
<v Speaker 14>good attitude, you know, regardless of success or failure. And

0:34:53.400 --> 0:34:56.080
<v Speaker 14>I think that's a really big key to having success

0:34:56.160 --> 0:34:57.799
<v Speaker 14>in the game, is just being able to wake up

0:34:57.840 --> 0:35:00.879
<v Speaker 14>the next day and still you know, work towards those

0:35:00.920 --> 0:35:03.520
<v Speaker 14>goals and and not have the highs.

0:35:03.320 --> 0:35:04.759
<v Speaker 7>Too high or the lows too low.

0:35:05.000 --> 0:35:07.320
<v Speaker 5>Do you feel like Tanner Scott has learned that in

0:35:07.480 --> 0:35:09.400
<v Speaker 5>his year and a half with the Dodgers. Do you

0:35:09.440 --> 0:35:10.880
<v Speaker 5>feel like he's getting better at that?

0:35:11.400 --> 0:35:14.960
<v Speaker 14>I mean, Tanner's had a lot of success in his career,

0:35:16.000 --> 0:35:19.400
<v Speaker 14>you know, and he's had big spots in postseason games,

0:35:19.440 --> 0:35:22.719
<v Speaker 14>and I just think that, you know, sometimes baseball is

0:35:22.800 --> 0:35:25.360
<v Speaker 14>just a tough sport man, and and you can do

0:35:25.440 --> 0:35:28.600
<v Speaker 14>everything right and still not have success, you know. And

0:35:29.520 --> 0:35:30.799
<v Speaker 14>you know, we got to know each other really well

0:35:30.880 --> 0:35:32.960
<v Speaker 14>last year, and for him to have you know, success

0:35:33.000 --> 0:35:35.359
<v Speaker 14>this year, it's it's been. It's been really awesome to see.

0:35:35.400 --> 0:35:37.480
<v Speaker 14>And I feel like I feed off of that as well,

0:35:38.600 --> 0:35:43.040
<v Speaker 14>just because like we're you know, we're both lefties down there,

0:35:43.080 --> 0:35:45.239
<v Speaker 14>and it's like when he's doing good and when I'm

0:35:45.239 --> 0:35:48.080
<v Speaker 14>doing good, like it's it's just the mojo and just

0:35:48.200 --> 0:35:50.520
<v Speaker 14>like that confidence I think just gets even.

0:35:50.440 --> 0:35:53.000
<v Speaker 5>Higher before I let you go, Alex Vesia, every year

0:35:53.120 --> 0:35:57.279
<v Speaker 5>is a new year, Every bullpen is obviously different. Do

0:35:57.400 --> 0:35:59.239
<v Speaker 5>you feel like you guys are strying to build your

0:35:59.239 --> 0:36:01.040
<v Speaker 5>own identity for twenty twenty six?

0:36:01.239 --> 0:36:01.399
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:36:01.520 --> 0:36:03.400
<v Speaker 14>Yeah, you asked me that when we were at Downy

0:36:03.600 --> 0:36:05.520
<v Speaker 14>and I'm still trying to figure out what exactly we're

0:36:05.560 --> 0:36:09.160
<v Speaker 14>gonna call call her, So says, you know, I always

0:36:09.239 --> 0:36:11.960
<v Speaker 14>like the bullpen Dogs, but might have to switch it up,

0:36:12.000 --> 0:36:13.560
<v Speaker 14>so you might have to come back with me with

0:36:13.800 --> 0:36:16.720
<v Speaker 14>and hopefully we'll get a name for us well as.

0:36:16.600 --> 0:36:19.000
<v Speaker 5>Long as you're in the bullpen. It's the bullpen Dogs.

0:36:19.080 --> 0:36:21.400
<v Speaker 14>Yeah, but that but that was Bazuoka like that, Like

0:36:22.040 --> 0:36:24.719
<v Speaker 14>he he was the one that like really set the

0:36:24.760 --> 0:36:25.239
<v Speaker 14>tone for that.

0:36:26.719 --> 0:36:29.200

0:36:29.239 --> 0:36:29.440

<v Speaker 2>hander starter for four seasons, reliever last year, now back

<v Speaker 2>he has struck out at least seven hitters in each

0:37:57.920 --> 0:37:59.719
<v Speaker 2>of those outings. In fact, he ranks fourth in the

0:38:00.280 --> 0:38:02.400
<v Speaker 2>league with eighty two strikeouts this year. Look out for

0:38:02.440 --> 0:38:05.400
<v Speaker 2>that curveball. It's the slowest curveball in the major leagues.

0:38:05.400 --> 0:38:07.960
<v Speaker 2>It's seventy two miles per hour on average with an

0:38:08.000 --> 0:38:11.279

<v Speaker 2>three and three, four to fifty ERA last time out,

0:38:25.680 --> 0:38:28.400

<v Speaker 2>eighteen ERRA compared to a seven to twenty three RRA

0:38:34.680 --> 0:38:37.120
<v Speaker 2>in four starts in April. So he's starting to put

0:38:37.160 --> 0:38:41.200
<v Speaker 2>together and stack together start after start that are really good.

0:38:41.239 --> 0:38:43.359

<v Speaker 8>Guys as a Dodgers and Angels get ready for the

0:39:40.000 --> 0:39:43.040
<v Speaker 8>first of this three game series before the Dodgers hit

0:39:43.200 --> 0:39:46.840
<v Speaker 8>the road to Pittsburgh and to the South side of Chicago.

0:39:47.600 --> 0:39:51.360
<v Speaker 8>Roki Sasaki tonight going against Reed Debtmer's and which Roki

0:39:51.480 --> 0:39:52.839
<v Speaker 8>Sasaki will we see?

0:39:52.960 --> 0:39:56.560
<v Speaker 9>Well, he's made an adjustment to one pitch, and that's

0:39:56.719 --> 0:39:59.560
<v Speaker 9>what he called the splitter. It's really a forkball deep

0:39:59.760 --> 0:40:02.480
<v Speaker 9>in of the v between the middle finger and the

0:40:02.560 --> 0:40:06.239
<v Speaker 9>index finger. Well, now he is kind of tightened that

0:40:06.360 --> 0:40:08.480
<v Speaker 9>grip up a little bit, so it is a splitter

0:40:08.600 --> 0:40:11.120
<v Speaker 9>and no longer a fork ball. And it seems to

0:40:11.200 --> 0:40:13.640
<v Speaker 9>have helped him because he went late April, he kind

0:40:13.680 --> 0:40:15.640
<v Speaker 9>of changed the grip around a little bit, and he's

0:40:15.719 --> 0:40:18.040
<v Speaker 9>throwing that pitch now for strikes with a higher.

0:40:17.800 --> 0:40:20.480
<v Speaker 7>Percentage, and he looks more confident.

0:40:20.560 --> 0:40:24.600
<v Speaker 9>Absolutely, absolutely, it's not like he's searching for the strength zone.

0:40:24.840 --> 0:40:27.719
<v Speaker 9>He's pitching now like he owns the strength zone.

0:40:28.239 --> 0:40:32.520
<v Speaker 8>So Sasaki goes against Reed Debtmer's two up, five down

0:40:32.600 --> 0:40:36.080
<v Speaker 8>a lefty. In his last two starts, he's pitched reasonably well.

0:40:36.280 --> 0:40:39.279
<v Speaker 8>Four runs in thirteen innings of the Angels have won

0:40:39.640 --> 0:40:40.640
<v Speaker 8>both of those games.

0:40:40.719 --> 0:40:43.919
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, And for Debtmans, like most pitchers, when he's ahead

0:40:43.960 --> 0:40:46.280
<v Speaker 9>and the coount, he's very good. He's going to change speeds.

0:40:46.600 --> 0:40:49.479
<v Speaker 9>He's not had a lot of success here. In fact,

0:40:49.600 --> 0:40:53.080
<v Speaker 9>in the zero to three and an er of twelve

0:40:53.560 --> 0:40:56.960
<v Speaker 9>and sixteen innings, he's worked a lot of innings and

0:40:57.080 --> 0:40:58.280
<v Speaker 9>given up a lot of runs.
