It was just a Roblusky getting the start. 0:01:56.600 --> 0:01:59.240 He'd go seven innings, allowed two runs on five hits. 0:01:59.400 --> 0:02:02.680 The Dodgers gave him offense early in some run support 0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:06.720 early Tommy Edmond and RBI's single scoring show Hey Dodgers 0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:09.280 a one to nothing lead.

Ryan is five and three with the 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:45.440 fifth best ERA in the American League at two ninety nine. 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:48.479 Dodgers fifty one and twenty nine, nine games up in 0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:50.960 the National League West, the Twins four and a half 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:54.400 back in the American League Central at thirty eight and 0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:58.560 forty three. Last night, Oh, the bats woke up after 0:05:58.600 --> 0:06:01.000 having a bit of a slow stock this series. 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:01.360 Or they did. 0:06:01.600 --> 0:06:04.800 They tied the season high with seventeen hints, even though 0:06:04.800 --> 0:06:09.320 they left thirteen runners able to score twelve different times. 0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:12.960 And they just continue to play good baseball. That was 0:06:13.000 --> 0:06:17.239 the difference to the Twins, normally a much solid ball club, 0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:19.840 but defensively did not uphold that each of the first 0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:22.360 two games of this series. So the Dodgers, yes, they 0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:24.560 scored first. When they've done that, they're thirty six and 0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:26.920 nine this year. But the Dodgers in a roll. Tim 0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:30.040 They've won twenty the last twenty nine, and tonight they 0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:32.440 reached the halfway point of the season. This is game 0:06:32.560 --> 0:06:33.560 number eighty one. 0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:36.600 Season halfway don you'd have to say the two biggest 0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:41.200 surprises maybe, or the two best stories might be Justin 0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:42.600 Robleski and Andy Piers. 0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:47.000 I tell you what. Robleski last night, seven innings, two runs, 0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:49.800 five hits, gave up a solo home run. But he 0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:52.480 has been a breath of fresh air. He's now five 0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:54.640 and one on the road. He's four and one at home, 0:06:55.240 --> 0:06:58.039 low average against. When he's had trouble with runners in 0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:00.400 scoring position. That's on the pitching side. Look at what 0:07:00.480 --> 0:07:03.000 Andy Pie has has done. Pie has came up with 0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:05.599 a couple of base hits, actually three hits last night, 0:07:05.839 --> 0:07:08.920 on base four different times, including a walk. And then 0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:11.679 there's the defense in the base running for Pi. Hez 0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:14.320 that We're hearing now more and more from scouts say, hey, look, 0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:16.120 this guy's having quite a season. 0:07:16.920 --> 0:07:19.960 Dodgers have the best record in Major League Baseball currently 0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:22.200 fifty one and twenty nine. They also have the best 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:26.720 road record at twenty five and fifteen. Overall, they've won 0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:30.480 twenty of their last twenty nine games. In spite of 0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:32.560 who's in the lineup and who's out of the lineup, 0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:34.040 the Dodgers just continue to roll. 0:07:34.200 --> 0:07:37.240 And a new face back in the lineup tonight. That's 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:40.000 been Adulting Rushing, who had to leave after the first 0:07:40.040 --> 0:07:42.680 game the series, hit in the mask with the foul ball, 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:47.040 so he was undergoing concussion protocol.

He's of course in 0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:53.960 the say young conversation with the National League, but you 0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:56.200 look at those last two and he's given up eight 0:10:56.320 --> 0:10:59.840 runs in the combined two outings, and so things haven't 0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:02.880 in as sharp. They've still been good, but just not 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:05.040 as sharp as we've kind of gotten used to seeing 0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:08.480 from him this year. And Dave Roberts this afternoon he 0:11:08.520 --> 0:11:11.800 spoke to the media, he was saying what he right now, 0:11:11.840 --> 0:11:14.200 what he's seeing is just kind of a lack in 0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:17.040 that fastball command. So obviously that's what sets things up 0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:19.440 for show Hey. So if he can get back to that. 0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:21.720 We know that he has dealt with some left knee 0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:24.800 inflammation that kept him out the lineup. Then we saw 0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:28.120 we visually have been seeing a blister that he has 0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:31.080 been playing through. Dave Roberts says that it's not a 0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:34.119 concern and he doesn't believe that that's what has necessarily 0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:37.160 led to the drop off in command it has. It's 0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:39.720 going to be covered again tonight and they're expecting it 0:11:39.800 --> 0:11:41.800 not to bleed like we saw it his last outing. 0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:44.280 But I think for show, hey, they're just. 0:11:44.240 --> 0:11:45.840 Kind of like they just want to see him get 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:49.120 back a little bit back on track, because again, it's 0:11:49.120 --> 0:11:51.320 not that he's been bad, just not as sharp as 0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:52.960 we've gotten used to seeing his last two. 0:11:53.600 --> 0:11:57.440 Looking at the lineup today, Dalton rushing back behind the playe, 0:11:57.440 --> 0:11:58.440 that's certainly a good sight. 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:01.600 Yeah, he's back and he's feeling better. You know, when 0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:05.360 he spoke to the media immediately I guess after coming 0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:07.920 out of the game with that after taking the foul 0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:10.560 tip off his mask, he had shared that he was 0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:13.080 feeling better. He had had dealt with a concussion in 0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:15.720 the past and this felt a little bit different. But 0:12:15.880 --> 0:12:18.199 immediately after taking that foul ball off his mask, he 0:12:18.559 --> 0:12:20.600 did feel shaken up. The good news is that he 0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:23.400 passed all of the concussion protocols and all of the testing. 0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:25.640 He had to go through it again. Yesterday because you 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:28.640 have to do it twenty four hours after and as 0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:31.040 we cleared all of that, the Dodgers did stay away 0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:33.320 from him and helped do to just the score of 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:35.720 the game, but they wanted to him to have a 0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:38.760 full day off. Obviously, Chucky stepped in and was one 0:12:38.800 --> 0:12:42.480 of the two hits, got on base, etc. So they 0:12:42.480 --> 0:12:45.480 feel good about where Dalton is at right now to 0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:47.520 step back in and be behind the play and to 0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:50.480 work with Shohe because Dave was adamant that he would 0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:53.160 like those two two working together while Will Smith is. 0:12:53.160 --> 0:12:56.160 Down, no doubt about it, and the Dodgers getting him 0:12:56.160 --> 0:12:58.080 back is a good sign. And the Dodgers getting out 0:12:58.120 --> 0:13:01.400 of Minnesota with a possible sweet would even look even better, 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:05.560 especially with the off day tomorrow in San Diego. Kerrison, 0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:07.319 we appreciate it. We'll check in with you after the game. 0:13:07.360 --> 0:13:09.559 Still to come here, I'm Wrongo Casino Dodgers on deck. 0:13:09.600 --> 0:13:12.640 We dive deeper into this pitching matchup.

We'll talk to 0:13:26.120 --> 0:13:28.280 the Dodger leftander coming up in just a little bit. 0:13:28.480 --> 0:13:31.200 But up next, it's your Dodger manager, Dave Roberts. As 0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:33.559 we lead you up to Dodgers and Twins on this Wednesday, 0:13:33.720 --> 0:13:36.000 first pitch at four forty.

Hey O 0:14:04.600 --> 0:14:07.079 Tani Joe Ryan. The pitching matchup, first pitch set for 0:14:07.120 --> 0:14:07.640 four to forty. 0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:10.520 He's the LA Dodger. 0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:15.079 Injury report presented by UCLA Healthy Official Medical partner of 0:14:15.120 --> 0:14:17.679 the Los Angeles Dodgers. Dalton Rushing back in the lineup 0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:20.360 after sitting out last night's game. Kyle Tucker not in 0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:23.280 the lineup, still nursing that soul. Laura mack will Smith 0:14:23.320 --> 0:14:26.080 on the il with the next inflammation to Oscar Hernandez 0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:27.640 on the io at the left hamstring strain. 0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:29.000 He's on a minor league rehabit. 0:14:29.080 --> 0:14:31.440 Sigmon in TRIPAA, Oklahoma City in his first game last 0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:32.840 night with one for three with. 0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:34.120 A two run home run. 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:36.640 He is looking like he should be ready to turn 0:14:36.920 --> 0:14:38.680 in the next week or so. Won't be a long 0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:43.200 stint on a rehabits Simon Keke, Hernandez, Tyler Glassenow, Blake Snell, 0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:45.680 and when Diaz all on the injured listening and Nack 0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:48.080 is working his way back to a rehabit signment as well, 0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:50.360 So that is trending in the right direction, as is 0:14:50.520 --> 0:14:54.760 Evan Phillips, who hopes to return sometimes before the All 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.479 Star break. All right, let's head back out to Minneapolis 0:14:57.480 --> 0:14:58.880 as we check out the Dodger Skipper. 0:14:59.120 --> 0:14:59.640 Anything else for. 0:15:01.240 --> 0:15:02.200 Questions for Dave Dave? 0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:04.120 Can you just describe Dave? 0:15:04.200 --> 0:15:06.000 Can you talk about the pressure. 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:08.680 In the dugouts with Dave Roberts. 0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:13.080 I think that, yeah, the last couple haven't been ideal. 0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:18.240 I think what's led to that is, honestly with most 0:15:18.280 --> 0:15:22.960 pitchers is just command. And I think that the fastball 0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:29.400 command hasn't been there to his kind of expectations. The 0:15:29.480 --> 0:15:34.480 sweeper command hasn't been there to his expectations, So I 0:15:34.520 --> 0:15:37.800 think that, Yeah, you know, it's one of those things 0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:41.040 that you know it's not going to continue for too 0:15:41.120 --> 0:15:43.640 much longer. So tonight, I know he's in a good 0:15:44.800 --> 0:15:49.760 place physically, emotionally, mentally, so hopefully it's a good one tonight. 0:15:49.960 --> 0:15:51.720 No part of that being you know, he had talked 0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:53.760 about the knee inflammation and how he's passed that. 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:55.240 But could a portion of. 0:15:55.200 --> 0:15:58.240 Maybe this lack of command have been due to just 0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:00.360 those things and having to deal with that brit. 0:16:00.720 --> 0:16:05.040 Yeah, I mean it's certainly possible. I check in with 0:16:05.120 --> 0:16:07.600 them all the time about the knee and as just 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:11.560 the training staff, and there's nothing from that from what 0:16:11.600 --> 0:16:15.320 we hear that that's affecting him. So we're certainly keeping 0:16:15.320 --> 0:16:18.440 a watchful eye on him. And you know, he was 0:16:18.480 --> 0:16:21.680 even confident that he should and wanted to hit today, 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:23.280 So that's a good sign. 0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:24.120 All right. 0:16:24.160 --> 0:16:26.560 There's a manager, Dave Roberts signing about show, hey Otani 0:16:26.640 --> 0:16:29.320 feels good, looks good, ready to go today as a 0:16:29.320 --> 0:16:32.160 two way player as a pitcher and the designated hitter. 0:16:32.200 --> 0:16:34.600 When we continue here on Wrongo Causino Dodgers on Deck, 0:16:34.640 --> 0:16:38.160 we check in with the David may Well lead you 0:16:38.240 --> 0:16:41.280 up to Dodgers and Twins from Target Field in Minneapolis. 0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:42.960 I'm Tim Kates.

Everybody can podcast on the iHeartRadio app. 0:17:36.680 --> 0:17:39.040 But what is the latest on that back. 0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:41.919 Yeah, while we were talking to Dave Roberts, who you 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:44.800 just heard from, I noticed Kyle Tucker go to the 0:17:44.880 --> 0:17:47.639 bat rack and had his batting gloves on, wrapped a 0:17:47.720 --> 0:17:51.920 bat went back downstairs. So Dave Roberts confirmed that Tucker 0:17:52.080 --> 0:17:54.800 was taking swings today, but it was not going to 0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:57.600 be during batting practice. He did not take BP on 0:17:57.680 --> 0:18:01.439 the field. He did take swings underneath in the hitting cage, 0:18:01.520 --> 0:18:05.119 So that's good news. And Tucker reassured us yesterday that 0:18:05.200 --> 0:18:07.840 he believes he'll be returning to the starting line of 0:18:07.880 --> 0:18:10.720 Friday in San Diego. And for what it's worth, I 0:18:10.760 --> 0:18:13.320 gave him on solicited advice and said, hey, so yeah, 0:18:13.400 --> 0:18:16.200 san Diego might be a good time just to reset 0:18:16.240 --> 0:18:17.680 the back and everything else. 0:18:18.160 --> 0:18:19.000 It is a good advice. 0:18:19.080 --> 0:18:19.359 TV. 0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:22.800 What's the latest on BLA should reset? I wish I 0:18:22.840 --> 0:18:24.879 could reset. I would evolve a day off, David. How 0:18:24.880 --> 0:18:26.920 about Blake Snell? What's the latest on Snell? 0:18:27.040 --> 0:18:27.320 Zella? 0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:31.160 Hello, he's had a few days off and he wants 0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:34.320 to get back and get back to pitching every fifth day. 0:18:34.560 --> 0:18:37.040 And when we were on the last homestand Blake Snell 0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:40.919 did throw ten pitches off the mound and Dave Roberts 0:18:40.920 --> 0:18:44.360 said another one is scheduled for Friday. He's gonna throw 0:18:44.400 --> 0:18:48.960 an all fastball bullpen session, fifteen pitches, and the plan 0:18:49.160 --> 0:18:54.320 is to have Snell throw four bullpen sessions, continuing to 0:18:54.359 --> 0:18:57.240 throw more and more to be ready to face hitters 0:18:57.280 --> 0:18:59.800 and maybe even go out on a rehab assignment. But 0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:04.200 it feels like Snell, we'll be able to pitch in July, 0:19:04.400 --> 0:19:07.320 and I wouldn't roll out before the All Star break. 0:19:07.680 --> 0:19:09.240 David has brought to you by Ford here for those 0:19:09.240 --> 0:19:11.639 who build America, especially those who believe that given everything 0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:14.200 today will pay off tomorrow, those who will drive America 0:19:14.280 --> 0:19:16.320 forward for two hundred and fifty years to come.
