Speaker 1: For the back to back World Champions of Baseball.
Speaker 2: One of the greatest runs in the history of baseball.
Speaker 1: Immortality is within their reach. Incredible and while others make excuses.
Speaker 3: The only reason the Dodgers are doing this because they can.
Speaker 3: They printing money.
Speaker 1: The Dodgers just can't continue.
Speaker 3: It's not fair.
Speaker 1: Are making plans.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a singular focus on controlling what they can control.
Speaker 1: Now your pregame host of the world champion La Dodgers
Speaker 1: tam Cats.
Speaker 5: Hi, everybody, and welcome to Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck
Speaker 5: on this hot Sunday afternoon. Hope you're staying cool wherever
Speaker 5: you may be. Sit back and relax and enjoy some
Speaker 5: Dodgers baseball as Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck is underway.
Speaker 5: The Dodgers seventy nine and fifty one on this season,
Speaker 5: running some momentum right now, winners of five in a row,
Speaker 5: they are in first place atop the NL West and
Speaker 5: they look to make the Pirates walk the plank with
Speaker 5: a series. Sweet Today, Blake Snow on the mound for
Speaker 5: the Dodgers first pitcher Uniclo Field. That Dodgers Stadium is
Speaker 5: coming up at one ten between then and now, we
Speaker 5: got a lot to get to here on Maronggo Casino
Speaker 5: Dodgers on deck, you are gonna hear from the manager himself,
Speaker 5: Dave Roberts. That's coming up in about twenty minutes, we'll
Speaker 5: preview this pitching matchup. David Vassa joins us throughout the hour.
Speaker 5: Of course, we'll hear from Charlie Steiner. We got your
Speaker 5: Dodgers magical moment. David Vassa is gonna go high and
Speaker 5: tight with Katie wu who covers the Los Angeles Dodgers
Speaker 5: on a daily basis, get her take on this Dodgers
Speaker 5: team where they stand right now towards the end of
Speaker 5: August and the home stretch of the season. We got
Speaker 5: your Otani rewind coming up in just a few minutes.
Speaker 5: We will check in with Tim Neverett and Rick Monday
Speaker 5: out the Galloping Ford Broadcast booth. Well, yesterday at the Ravine,
Speaker 5: Scoob's got into trouble early before settling in Trek Scuoble
Speaker 5: in the first gave up three runs to the first
Speaker 5: five hitters of the game, and all of a sudden,
Speaker 5: the Dodgers early were down three to nothing to the
Speaker 5: Pittsburgh Pirates. However, Schooble will settle in retired twenty of
Speaker 5: his final twenty three batters, the left hander allowed just
Speaker 5: three runs on five hits over seven innings, just one walk.
Speaker 5: His strikeouts, well, they were one off the season high,
Speaker 5: two off his career best, as Scooble would strike out eleven.
Speaker 3: Along the way.
Speaker 5: Meanwhile, the Dodgers' offense needed to spin around the lineup
Speaker 5: to get after Jared Jones out of Lamarado High School,
Speaker 5: and finally in the fourth some command issues from Jones
Speaker 5: helped out the Dodgers, but start with Max Munsey's doubled
Speaker 5: down the right field line. Then Tommy Edmond took advantage
Speaker 5: of some well bad pitching from Jones. He walked two
Speaker 5: batters later, te Oscar Hernandez got the Dodgers on the board,
Speaker 5: Dodgers down three to one with the RBIs single.
Speaker 3: Then the newest Dodger, Alec Thomas.
Speaker 6: Welcome three two to Thomas. He swings hits a ground
Speaker 6: bowl into left field. At basic Tucker's gonna get waved around.
Speaker 6: He touches third. He is coming home. It's now a
Speaker 6: one run bowl game. Alec Thomas, well, this first hit
Speaker 6: is a Dodger. It produces a and makes it a
Speaker 6: one run ball game.
Speaker 5: It's three to two, Dodgers making a one run game.
Speaker 3: A fielder's choice, then a walk.
Speaker 5: Dodgers had their bases loaded for Freddie Freeman, but he
Speaker 5: flew out to left to end the threat and get
Speaker 5: Jones off the hook in the fourth. We fast forward
Speaker 5: to the bottom of the fifth, Dodgers down still three
Speaker 5: to two, when they took advantage of again some bad
Speaker 5: Pirates pitching. Mookie Betts hit by a pitch by Ramirez
Speaker 5: to lead off the inning. Max Munsey again, how about
Speaker 5: a double double animal style his second double down the
Speaker 5: right field line, Mookie Betts to third. Tommy Emmon grounded
Speaker 5: out to first, then runners on for Kyle Tucker, who
Speaker 5: has been struggling oer for twenty five at Dodgers Stadium.
Speaker 3: Come on, something gotta changed.
Speaker 6: Pirate right hander throws and Tucker hits it on the
Speaker 6: ground either the right peeld a basic Murky scores rounding
Speaker 6: third is month Sie.
Speaker 1: He will score. It's a two run, go ahead.
Speaker 6: Single for Kyle Tucker and the Dodgers lead.
Speaker 3: At four to three.
Speaker 7: Well, the Dodgers needed that hit of his late and
Speaker 7: so did Kyle Tucker.
Speaker 5: Kyle Tucker needed that base it certainly that ended at
Speaker 5: zero for twenty five stretch. That is the top tier
Speaker 5: play of the game, brought to by Arco Quality, top
Speaker 5: tier gas for less.
Speaker 3: As the Dodgers.
Speaker 5: Flipped the scoreboard there in the fifth inning, they take
Speaker 5: a four to two lead, four to three lead at
Speaker 5: that point. After the fifth and again Trek scouble settled in.
Speaker 5: He went to seven innings, didn't allow a run after
Speaker 5: that first inning. Evan Phillips came in along with Jack Dryer,
Speaker 5: got out of the eighth. Tanner Scott got the ninth
Speaker 5: inning and he would retire him in order Dodgers get
Speaker 5: the win four to three over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Trek
Speaker 5: scooble He's now eight and seven on this season, but
Speaker 5: more importantly, picks up his first win in four starts
Speaker 5: since coming over from the Tigers at the trade deadline.
Speaker 5: Tanner Scott don't look now, but he's got nineteen saves
Speaker 5: on this season, as the Dodgers have now won five
Speaker 5: in a row.
Speaker 3: For the first time since May.
Speaker 5: Yes, remember when everybody was freaking out about the Dodgers
Speaker 5: losing three four to the Milwaukee Brewers. Well, they've now
Speaker 5: swept the Colorado Rockies and today a chance to finish
Speaker 5: off the three games sweep of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The
Speaker 5: Dodgers seventy nine to fifty one, nine games up on
Speaker 5: San Diego, eleven games up on the Arizona Diamondbacks, and
Speaker 5: they've separated themselves between them and the Braves as far
Speaker 5: as the top two spots in the National League, with
Speaker 5: Milwaukee holding the top spot. Today, Blake Snell on the mound,
Speaker 5: first pitch of one ten and with more we head
Speaker 5: out to the Gallo before broadcast booth as we say
Speaker 5: good afternoon to Tim neverdet Rick Monday.
Speaker 3: Guys, Tim, thank you very much.
Speaker 6: Gorgeous afternoon, warm temperatures here at Dodgers Stadium as the
Speaker 6: Dodgers get sent to wrap up this three game series
Speaker 6: with the Pittsburgh Pirates, a chance for a sweep. Dodgers
Speaker 6: are seventy nine and fifty one, nine games in front
Speaker 6: of the Podres, four up on Atlanta, two and a
Speaker 6: half behind Milwaukee for the best record in the National League.
Speaker 6: Down to the five week mark remaining in the regular season,
Speaker 6: Dodgers now have won five in a row. They haven't
Speaker 6: won six straight since they won six in a row
Speaker 6: in May, and looking to do that today if they
Speaker 6: can get back to back sweeps put together. They just
Speaker 6: swept the Rockies and I have won two of the
Speaker 6: first two against the Pirates. The Pirates come in sixty
Speaker 6: three and sixty eight, eighteen and a half off the
Speaker 6: pace in the National League Central Division, and a loss
Speaker 6: today for Pittsburgh and a win for Cincinnati, they would
Speaker 6: flip flop in the standings and the Pirates would fall
Speaker 6: into the basement of the Central Division. Blake Snell the
Speaker 6: left hander on the mound. He is one and one
Speaker 6: with a three sixty ERA last time out against Colorado
Speaker 6: very good. Lake Baker will open his second game in
Speaker 6: a week. He opened against Boston last Sunday, and it'll
Speaker 6: be a bullpen game for the Pirates today. Last night,
Speaker 6: the Buckos had a lead of three to nothing in
Speaker 6: the first, but that was it. Once Trek Scougbel dialed
Speaker 6: in the Sites, he really bared down hard on the Pirates,
Speaker 6: retiring eighteen to the last nineteen he faced and got
Speaker 6: the win, his first as a Dodge. Jared Jones had
Speaker 6: a good start at the beginning, but then just fell
Speaker 6: apart in the fourth inning and the Dodgers took advantage
Speaker 6: for their thirty seventh come from behind win. Well, it
Speaker 6: was a good win, obviously, and he wins a good win,
Speaker 6: but a one run win for the Dodgers. They have
Speaker 6: more one run wins than anybody in baseball twenty six
Speaker 6: and they've played in more one run games than anybody
Speaker 6: in baseball forty four.
Speaker 7: They got the feeling. I remember about three weeks ago
Speaker 7: for Dave Roberts who was asked about his ball club,
Speaker 7: which basically they were marching in place, they weren't doing
Speaker 7: a whole lot sufficiently on a day in and day
Speaker 7: on basis, he used the word urgency. Well, from what
Speaker 7: I see now, this Dodger ball club is playing with
Speaker 7: a sense of urgency. As you mentioned, yes, five weeks
Speaker 7: from today the regular season concludes, and then well, which
Speaker 7: division is going to be representing themselves in postseason? Playing
Speaker 7: for the Dodgers leading by nine games in front of
Speaker 7: San Diego to lead the Nation League Western Division. I
Speaker 7: just get the feeling that this Dodger ball club right
Speaker 7: now is working on with more urgency, if you will,
Speaker 7: on the way that they're playing the game.
Speaker 6: So Manews to report on We understand that Andy Pie
Speaker 6: has did have some sort of medical procedure done on
Speaker 6: his hand with the fractures, perhaps a pin put in there.
Speaker 6: Dave Robbers telling us just moments ago that the procedure
Speaker 6: has already taken place, which means that his recovery period
Speaker 6: will start sooner than they thought.
Speaker 7: Yeah, so that came as a big surprise. Pleasant one too,
Speaker 7: because that will probably and most likely speed up the process.
Speaker 7: As they've said, it's either a pin or a screw.
Speaker 7: The other good news is is that Will Smith, who
Speaker 7: we saw him yesterday out here and working with Shoheo
Speaker 7: Tani was pitching. Will Smith, will be headed to Oklahoma
Speaker 7: City and start his rehab on Tuesdays. So guys are
Speaker 7: getting even closer and closer to getting back and getting healthier.
Speaker 6: Smith was running the bases out here earlier today, so
Speaker 6: Tuesday he'll start with Oklahoma City. We'll see how many
Speaker 6: swings he gets down there, but they do expect him
Speaker 6: back by the time the Dodgers get off this next
Speaker 6: road trip to Atlanta and Detroit. Also, one other thing,
Speaker 6: Eric Lower is in the Dodger bullpen right now for
Speaker 6: a paulk innings role. No word on whether he will
Speaker 6: start again this season, but they do expect him to
Speaker 6: be utilized as a long man for the remainder of
Speaker 6: the regular season and into the postseason. Blake Snell, Lake Baker,
Speaker 6: that's the pitching matchup to start the game. Dodgers going
Speaker 6: for a three game sweep over the Pirates.
Speaker 3: Timp All right, thank you guys.
Speaker 5: As we gutting down to first bitch on this Sunday,
Speaker 5: it's lunchtime, Dodger fans, what's your plans? How about getting
Speaker 5: your game day meal onto Shaky's Pizza parlor.

Speaker 5: We'll check you with Katie Wu who covers the Dodgers
Speaker 5: for the Athletic get her thoughts on this Dodgers team
Speaker 5: with now five weeks to go in this season. We'll
Speaker 5: hear from Charlie Starner David Vat say checks in a
Speaker 5: lot to get to as we're off and running here,
Speaker 5: I'm Wrongo Casino Dodgers on deck leading up to Dodgers Empirates.
Speaker 3: Thanks for being with us.
Speaker 5: I'm Tim Kas's the back to back World Series champion
Speaker 5: Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on deck on your home
Speaker 1: for the blue all season long.
Speaker 5: It's the Dodgers and the Pirates, says. The Dodgers go
Speaker 5: for the three games sweep of the Buckoes, Lake Snell,
Speaker 5: Lake Baker. Who will be the opener for Pittsburgh. That
Speaker 5: is the pitching matchup, first pitch coming up at one ten.
Speaker 1: This is the Otani rewise.
Speaker 5: Well, believe it or not, the Dodgers able to win
Speaker 5: a baseball game yesterday without show Hey Otani having to
Speaker 5: do very much. He did get on base twice via walk,
Speaker 5: but it oh for three day with a couple of strikeouts.
Speaker 3: For show.
Speaker 5: He's now hitting two eighty nine on this season, a
Speaker 5: three ninety one on base percentage. As show Hey Otani
Speaker 5: and the Dodgers got the win over the Pittsburgh Pirates
Speaker 5: yesterday four to three.
Speaker 1: This is Kirston's Corner with Kirston Watson.
Speaker 5: Hey Kirston, that joins us from the ravine. Brought to
Speaker 5: by Cars for Kids, the easiest way to get rid
Speaker 5: of your old car. Donate today your car could be
Speaker 5: picked up tomorrow.
Speaker 3: That easy.
Speaker 5: Donate now at carsfrokids dot org. That's Cars with a K.
Speaker 5: All right, a couple of big things going on with
Speaker 5: the Dodgers are looking to win their sixth in a
Speaker 5: row today on this hot Sunday afternoon. Kirston first off show, Hey,
Speaker 5: oh Tony, how did he come out of that simulated
Speaker 5: innity pitch yesterday?
Speaker 8: Yeah, he pitched like thirty pitches. He came out of
Speaker 8: it really well. So Dave Roberts was saying that, you know,
Speaker 8: when it comes to show Hayes build up, they have
Speaker 8: made it clear that it's going to be a live
Speaker 8: maybe two lives, and then they're going to start building
Speaker 8: them up in games, similar to what we saw last
Speaker 8: year when he was finishing his just rehab from having.
Speaker 4: The surgery the year before.
Speaker 8: So Dave was saying, what's going to be next is
Speaker 8: likely going to be another bullpen in the actual pin
Speaker 8: that will be happening in Atlanta, and then after that
Speaker 8: when they'll see how he feels, and then they'll decide
Speaker 8: if it makes it to throw another live or if
Speaker 8: it makes sense to slot him back into the rotation
Speaker 8: to begin the build up in game. What we saw
Speaker 8: last year with show Hey, it was essentially like he
Speaker 8: threw an inning in a big league game twice and
Speaker 8: he would build up to about two innings, et cetera.
Speaker 8: But due to kind of where they are in the schedule,
Speaker 8: due to where Showhey's health is at as well, Dave
Speaker 8: Roberts said that they feel like that they can be
Speaker 8: a little bit more aggressive with him. So it will
Speaker 8: be interesting just to see what really comes next after
Speaker 8: that bullpen in Atlanta, it's going to another live or
Speaker 8: if they're going to slot him into the game. But
Speaker 8: Dave did make it clear that once the slot him
Speaker 8: into the game, we're going to be seeing Eric Lauer
Speaker 8: likely kind of piggyback behind him because one, of course,
Speaker 8: he's already built up. He is available in the bullpit
Speaker 8: now technically, but they like the idea of having him
Speaker 8: to protect and also protecting themselves so that Eric is
Speaker 8: available if need be to start as well.
Speaker 1: No doubt.
Speaker 5: What about the update on Andy pie Has, who of
Speaker 5: course on the injured list now with the hand injury.
Speaker 8: Yeah, so of course we saw Into getting hit by
Speaker 8: that pitch on his left hand on Friday night and
Speaker 8: immediately we knew it was an ideal. He tried to
Speaker 8: stay out there, but of course afterwards we found out
Speaker 8: that he's dealing with a hand fracture. So Dave Roberts
Speaker 8: today said that yesterday morning he had a smallish procedure
Speaker 8: to put a pin in his hand. They're still hopeful,
Speaker 8: otimistic that he will be returning. They're still sticking to
Speaker 8: that four to six week timeline and just making sure
Speaker 8: that one he's ready to start swinging the back with
Speaker 8: the swinging the bat excuse me, when his hand is healed,
Speaker 8: that he is using the traject machine getting into live
Speaker 8: so that he's kind of keeping himself in a position
Speaker 8: to be ready come October. So we know how valuable
Speaker 8: he has been to this lineup, whether it's batting second
Speaker 8: or towards the top.
Speaker 5: Of the order.
Speaker 8: We saw what he did to start this season having
Speaker 8: an All Star campaign, So for him, it's just finding
Speaker 8: ways to make sure they can get that defense and
Speaker 8: his bat into the lineup again because there it's going
Speaker 8: to be a tough one without him trying to replace that,
Speaker 8: So things are going to look a little bit different
Speaker 8: while he is down. Right today and even last night
Speaker 8: we saw that Alec Thomas is going to be in center,
Speaker 8: but Dave said there will be times that it's Alec
Speaker 8: when there is a righty on the mound, but then
Speaker 8: we could see Tommy or Key Gay in center when
Speaker 8: there's a left on lefty on the mound. So they're
Speaker 8: just kind of we'll be seeing some different things with
Speaker 8: the lineup, just while they're trying to offset the time
Speaker 8: in which Andy is down. But they still at this
Speaker 8: moment feel very hopeful that he will be returning this season.
Speaker 5: All right, Kiers, it's suposed to be one hundred degrees
Speaker 5: on the field here with first bitch of one o'clock,
Speaker 5: somebody gets you an umbrella, and I hope you're hydrating.
Speaker 3: I am hydrating.
Speaker 8: I've got literally like three drinks with me, I've got electrolytes.
Speaker 8: I have a fan with a mister. But will you
Speaker 8: know what's sad? Because of how the seats are set
Speaker 8: up at Dodger Stadium, I can't put an umbrella. No,
Speaker 8: so it would block the view from the people in
Speaker 8: the first row. And obviously those seats are so expensive,
Speaker 8: so I can't That would be so rude of me.
Speaker 1: So I can't do that.
Speaker 8: So I'll just be like layering on sunscreen every hour,
Speaker 8: maybe forty five minutes. I think that's a correct thing
Speaker 8: to say.
Speaker 3: How about one of those hats the high school football
Speaker 3: coaches all, well.
Speaker 8: Yes, you know what, I'm gonna give me a bucket hat.
Speaker 8: So you'll see me down there with a little bucket hat.
Speaker 3: I'll be fine, all.
Speaker 5: Right, We'll stay cool, hydrate, and we'll keep an eye
Speaker 5: on you down there next to the Dodgers duguy, and
Speaker 5: we'll check you with you after the game still to
Speaker 5: come here on Marongo Casino.
Speaker 3: Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 5: Will dive deep into this pitching matchup. David vat sagoes
Speaker 5: one on one with Alec Thomas. But I'm next. We'll
Speaker 5: get you an injury report and we'll hear from the
Speaker 5: manager Dave Roberts the very latest on all the injury
Speaker 5: news Dodgers and Pirates on this hot Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 3: First pitch at one ten.
Speaker 5: I'm Tim Katson's the back to back World Series champion
Speaker 5: Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Cassino Dodgers Hunting game on your home
Speaker 1: for LA Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 5: Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck continues on this hot Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 5: Stay cool wherever you're at, especially if you're going to
Speaker 5: the game. Hydrate please. Dodgers and the Pirates Marongo Casino
Speaker 5: Resort and spat a Grand Slam for good times. Blake
Speaker 5: Snell on the Mount Snell Zilla first pitch at ten.
Speaker 1: He's the LA Dodgers injury report.
Speaker 5: Where is that a buy UCLA Healthy? Official medical partner
Speaker 5: of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Andy pie Has on the I
Speaker 5: L with the left hand fracture and when Diaz on
Speaker 5: the IL with the next inflammation. More on that coming up.
Speaker 5: Dalton rushing on the IL with the elbow injury. Blake
Speaker 5: trying and working his way back with the right elbow inflammation.
Speaker 5: Will Smith on the I L with the neck inflammation.
Speaker 5: He took a well a sim game batting practice against
Speaker 5: Show Hey Yo Tany yesterday. Thirty pitches he faced against Show.
Speaker 5: Will Climb on the I L at the bone chips
Speaker 5: and his elbow, but he is feeling better. Tyler Glass
Speaker 5: now on the il, but he is soon to come
Speaker 5: off the injured list, making the scar start on Tuesday
Speaker 5: in the series opener against the Atlanta Braves. All right,
Speaker 5: let's head back out to the ravine and check in
Speaker 5: with the Dodger skipper.
Speaker 1: Any questions for Dave?
Speaker 9: Dave?
Speaker 1: Can you just describe Dave?
Speaker 3: Can you talk about the pressure.
Speaker 1: In the dugouts with Dave Roberts?
Speaker 9: The next step will be another bullpen, probably in Atlanta,
Speaker 9: and then I think at that point in time it
Speaker 9: would be alive or in the game in a game.
Speaker 10: Oh, we've seen him build up before, and how about
Speaker 10: how valuable was that? Just learning last year of seeing
Speaker 10: him go inning by inning and then you look at
Speaker 10: the rotator not even the rotation of the pitching staff that.
Speaker 1: You have options like and Eric Lawer or people.
Speaker 10: Who provide length. How valuable is that just right now
Speaker 10: as he is building up?
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's great. Obviously we've got Glass coming back, we
Speaker 9: have lower with length, and so to then have the
Speaker 9: opportunity the flexibility to insert show hey to you know,
Speaker 9: build up like you did last year, I think is
Speaker 9: a huge benefit. You know, both ways, and again having
Speaker 9: guys like lower certainly behind them is uh makes it
Speaker 9: that much a software landing for show?
Speaker 1: Hey, what with the terminal?
Speaker 4: It's a live or in gamers.
Speaker 9: I think it's more of how the pen goes, and
Speaker 9: I think and and also more so to be quiet
Speaker 9: on it's how show he feels if if he feels
Speaker 9: like you know, I feel like I can he can
Speaker 9: take on the game and thrown inning great and you
Speaker 9: know how it lines up versus I might need to
Speaker 9: see some more hitters.
Speaker 5: All right, there's a manager Dave Roberts on show, Hey, Otani,
Speaker 5: who is gonna throw another bit of bullpen session and
Speaker 5: everything checks off. There sounds like it's back to the
Speaker 5: rotation for show. Hey, slow build up still, but back
Speaker 5: to the rotation when we continue here, I'm wrong with
Speaker 5: Casino Dodgers on Deck back out to Uniclo Field the
Speaker 5: Dodger Stadium. But David Bassey has got the very latest
Speaker 5: to lead you up to first pitch.
Speaker 3: I'm Tim Kates' is the back to back World Stie
Speaker 3: Champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: As we were saying, yes, it's Marongo Casino Dodgers on
Speaker 1: Deck on the official home of La, Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 5: Dodgers and Pirates on this hot Sunday afternoon. Blake Snell
Speaker 5: on the mount first pitch coming up at one ten
Speaker 5: Dodgers base I'll watched by Alpto, born in La.
Speaker 3: Made for your game day, El Pato.
Speaker 5: It brings authentic Mexican style tomato sauces, Saucea's Hot sauces
Speaker 5: right to your table every single time.
Speaker 3: El Poto Gourmet and a can.
Speaker 1: Joining Tim Kats on Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 4: I accept everybody for who they are.
Speaker 1: This is Dodger inside there, David Bai.
Speaker 3: All right, DV.
Speaker 5: We don't talk about weather a lot of Dodgers Stadium
Speaker 5: because it's so beautiful in Southern California all the time.
Speaker 5: But you know, sometimes we get some rain occasionally, and
Speaker 5: today one of those really hot days out of the ravine.
Speaker 4: Yeah. When I got here at nine am this morning, Tim,
Speaker 4: it was already close to ninety degrees on the field
Speaker 4: at Dodgers Stadium. And I'm not a meteorologist, but I
Speaker 4: like to keep up with the weather, and they are
Speaker 4: warning here in Southern California this upcoming week that temperatures
Speaker 4: could get as high as one hundred and twelve degrees
Speaker 4: and it feels like today is the uh is the
Speaker 4: first day of that heat wave. And the Dodgers have
Speaker 4: the right guy on the mound today because last year
Speaker 4: the Dodgers had to go to Tampa, Florida to play
Speaker 4: outdoors against the Rays in August, and when Blake Snell
Speaker 4: made his first start back, or one of his first
Speaker 4: starts back, he was pitching in that series, and it
Speaker 4: was at least one hundred degrees with one hundred percent humidity.
Speaker 4: And Blake has told me, I don't care how hot
Speaker 4: it is. I don't care how cold it is. The
Speaker 4: weather doesn't mean anything to me. So some guys let
Speaker 4: the weather get in their head. Not snail Zilla today,
Speaker 4: on this beautiful Sunday.
Speaker 3: David has brought to you by Ford Summer Sales Event.
Speaker 4: Don't we Rick Monday's looking at me like I'm weird?
Speaker 1: Yay.
Speaker 4: Some guys do let the weather and find a built
Speaker 4: in excuse. No, not this guy, not a two time
Speaker 4: cy Young Award winner.
Speaker 3: Hurrying now for the best offers of the year.
Speaker 5: Go to your Buy four now dot comm er you
Speaker 5: South the California Ford Dealer for more information. Ford Official
Speaker 5: vehicle of Major League Baseball. All right, show hey O
Speaker 5: tany David, are we getting closer to him back on
Speaker 5: the mound?
Speaker 4: Sounds like it. He threw that live BPS and Otani
Speaker 4: obviously he's the best player on the planet. The Dodgers
Speaker 4: are going to take his lead on things. So, as
Speaker 4: you heard Dave Roberts say, he's going to throw another
Speaker 4: bullpen in Atlanta. I would expect that to be the
Speaker 4: first day on Tuesday, because a week from today in Detroit,
Speaker 4: the final day of the six game road trip, the
Speaker 4: Dodgers need a starter. They've already decided that Eric Lower
Speaker 4: is going to the bullpen, So if all goes well
Speaker 4: with that bullpen session in Atlanta, I could definitely envision
Speaker 4: Otani making the start next Sunday in Detroit, maybe a
Speaker 4: one or two inning start, and Eric Lower being the
Speaker 4: guy to piggyback him. That just makes the most sense.
Speaker 3: All Right, Dave real quick, Edwin Diaz, are we going
Speaker 3: to see him again this year? Pitching?
Speaker 4: We talked to him this morning. Here's what he had
Speaker 4: to say about the reset to his season.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I think they shows I'm from previous year. It
Speaker 11: just it's my own angle. It's a little bit low.
Speaker 11: We are working out to get to be more consistent
Speaker 11: in that position. You know, I think with am angle up,
Speaker 11: my fastball room way better than now I'm throwing. Right now,
Speaker 11: I'm throwing the bad side to side, so my slaughter
Speaker 11: is still is getting flat in the middle, my fat

Speaker 11: Well, we got a lot of season left.
Speaker 1: You know.

Speaker 11: be ready and help this team in the playoffs. So
Speaker 11: I'm working on them. No, I know we'll be back,
Speaker 11: so I'm really positive.
Speaker 4: Well, Edwin Diaz has to prove to the Dodgers that
Speaker 4: he can be part of that postseason roster, and he'll
Speaker 4: probably come back in September with about twenty games to
Speaker 4: go in the year and probably less actually fifteen games
Speaker 4: to go in the season to prove it.
Speaker 3: Well, see if you can jump start things here late
Speaker 3: in the year.

Speaker 5: we say hello to Charlie Steiner.
Speaker 12: All right, Tennis, you get away day. The Dodgers, having
Speaker 12: taken two of the first three from the Pirates, wrap
Speaker 12: it up with the Buckos today, off day tomorrow, then
Speaker 12: off to Atlanta for a big three game series with
Speaker 12: the Atlanta Braids. Thirty two games and five weeks remaining
Speaker 12: to play for the Dodgers' magic number twenty four. The
Speaker 12: tragic number for the Pirates is fourteen. Story of the
Speaker 12: Day Yesterday MO was Tarrek Scruble, a shaky first inning,
Speaker 12: and then after that that was a Tarrek school the
Speaker 12: Dodgers were hoping for and expecting.
Speaker 7: I really thought that the coming out of the shoot
Speaker 7: in that first inning that you're talking about. The Pirates
Speaker 7: had a pretty good game plan because they were swinging
Speaker 7: early in the count against Scooble, even though he got
Speaker 7: ahead of the second batter and the third batter in
Speaker 7: that bowl game, but a two run triple and then
Speaker 7: an infield out and all of a sudden, it's three nothing.
Speaker 7: But exactly after that, although if we look at the
Speaker 7: second inning, remember two, there were back to back Bay's
Speaker 7: hints Scoobled at that time looked like he got angry,
Speaker 7: and that was a different Schooble that came out from
Speaker 7: that point on. So he's the mainstay and really kind
Speaker 7: of showed exactly why he was at the top of
Speaker 7: the shopping list for the Dodgers. Just before the trade deadline.
Speaker 12: He retired eighteen of the final nineteen batters he faced
Speaker 12: either a second hardest pitch of the season for the
Speaker 12: final strikeout victim of the day, Jake Bangum, And so
Speaker 12: Dodgers feel better now he got him the guy that
Speaker 12: they hoped and expected would be. And then today the
Speaker 12: Dodgers will be sending out Blake Snell, who historically in
Speaker 12: the postseason there are few that have been better. And
Speaker 12: then you're still looking at Yamamoto down the road and
Speaker 12: O'tani having pitched off the mound just yesterday. Looking forward,
Speaker 12: we're talking about it yesterday. Here are the Dodgers generally speaking,
Speaker 12: this time of year, teams are physically wearing down the
Speaker 12: pitching staff. How are they gonna how they gonna get
Speaker 12: those starters in there, How they're gonna fit them all in?
Speaker 12: The Dodgers starting rotation now is getting stronger as they
Speaker 12: get closer to the finish line.
Speaker 7: Know, there's some guy's coming off the injured list. I
Speaker 7: mean you start to look, Yes, Snell today making his
Speaker 7: forest Star overall is going to be glass. Now we'll
Speaker 7: pitch the first game of the road trip in Atlanta
Speaker 7: on Tuesday. He comes off the injured list. So yeah,
Speaker 7: all well and good on that end of it. But
Speaker 7: then you start to look at the uncertainties. For example,
Speaker 7: just a couple of days ago they lose Andy Potes
Speaker 7: with a fracture of the left hand. Okay, fine, Then
Speaker 7: you start to look at little things planning ahead, and
Speaker 7: the pickup of Alec Thomas, who came in yesterday also
Speaker 7: was in center field in the absence of Potz and
Speaker 7: for Thomas knocked in a run, he complayed some defense
Speaker 7: if he has anything at all from an offensive standpoint.
Speaker 7: What an insurance policy the Dodgers picked up very very
Speaker 7: early this year to get him.
Speaker 12: That was one of those deals under the wire nobody
Speaker 12: quite knew, all right, what happened to Alec Thomas and
Speaker 12: Arizona and the Dadgers say, Okay, we'll pick him up.
Speaker 12: And what an insurance policy he is turning out to be. Grant,
Speaker 12: it's just one game in, but we know he can field,
Speaker 12: and we know he can run.
Speaker 7: And I saw him yesterday before the ballgame. He spent
Speaker 7: a lot of time in the outfield understanding this surface
Speaker 7: of how quick the grass is, which is kind I
Speaker 7: mean for those that have never been on the field
Speaker 7: here at Dodger Stadium, let me tell you something. This
Speaker 7: is like playing on a putting green. It's not the
Speaker 7: high grass that you see in your front yard. No,
Speaker 7: this is more putting green, so the ball gets to
Speaker 7: you much more rapidly. And the fact that Thomas was
Speaker 7: out there working with Dino Eble, who's not only the
Speaker 7: third base coach but the outfield coach as well, it
Speaker 7: really showed me a lot as far as hey I
Speaker 7: want to get up to speed with what this ballpark
Speaker 7: is really presenting to me. Challenges defensively, and there's not
Speaker 7: a better teacher defensively.
Speaker 12: That's a thought of the.
Speaker 1: Game and Dino Ebl.
Speaker 7: Every time you have a conversation with Dino Ebl, you'll
Speaker 7: learn something, whether you're asking questions or not. If you
Speaker 7: pay attention, you're going to learn something from that guy.
Speaker 12: So the Dodgers again wrap it up today off day
Speaker 12: tomorrow the three big games in Atlanta, and suddenly, not
Speaker 12: only are are the Dodgers looking at the Braves in
Speaker 12: the rear view mirror, the Braves are looking at the
Speaker 12: Phillies in the rearview mirror. Philadelphia Trails and Braves by
Speaker 12: only three games, and so Atlanta's got a lot more
Speaker 12: on its plate in this three game series upcoming than
Speaker 12: the Dodgers do.
Speaker 7: Charlie, I'm not certain it's in the rearview mirror where
Speaker 7: Atlanta's looking at the Philadelphia Phillies. It may be in
Speaker 7: the side mirror, because the Phillies have won eight of
Speaker 7: their last ten, eight in a row, we might add.
Speaker 7: And for the Atlanta Braids, they've lost two in a row,
Speaker 7: but seven of the last ten, they have dropped in
Speaker 7: the lost column.
Speaker 12: Well, the Dodgers and Pires wrap it up this afternoon
Speaker 12: off day tomorrow and then off to Atlanta for three Tuesday,
Speaker 12: Wednesday and Thursday. Lineups and first pitch coming up.
Speaker 3: Tim, all right, thank you very much.
Speaker 5: Charlie still to come here on Wrongo Becauseino Dodgers on deck.
Speaker 5: We'll get you a preview this pitching matchup the keys
Speaker 5: of the game. But up next we'll talk to Katie
Speaker 5: Woo from the Athletic covers the Dodgers on the Daily Beat,
Speaker 5: get her take on this Dodgers team. Dodgers and Pirates.
Speaker 5: Dodgers going for the sweep. First pitch at one ten.
Speaker 5: I'm Tim Kates's the back to back World Series champion
Speaker 5: Dodgers all.
Speaker 1: You know where as we were saying, this is Marongo
Speaker 1: Casino Dodgers on jack on the official home of La
Speaker 1: Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 5: Dodgers and Pirates Dodgers going for the sweet perfect guy
Speaker 5: on the Mountain Play Snell.
Speaker 3: First pitch at one ten.
Speaker 5: Dodgers Baseball is brought to you by Shanky's Pizza Parlor,
Speaker 5: the official pizza partner the Dodgers Audio Broadcast. It's lunchtime.
Speaker 5: No better time on this game day. It's group day,
Speaker 5: It's Shaky's dot com and now.
Speaker 1: What will likely be vass a fielding insults from a
Speaker 1: Dodger player.
Speaker 3: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 1: This it is high and tight, all right.
Speaker 4: It's snell Zilla Sunday at Dodgers Stadium and the Athletic
Speaker 4: has team coverage, including Katie Wu, who's the best in
Speaker 4: the business. Thanks a lot for the time. And I
Speaker 4: know you got here early because you're ready for a show.
Speaker 13: Always besse, I know better than to miss snell Zvilla day.
Speaker 4: I think right now we should just say no hitter alert.
Speaker 13: Why not speaking into existence? You heard it here first
Speaker 13: on AM five seventy eight.
Speaker 4: Okay, So in all seriousness, Trek scoubl was amazing yesterday,
Speaker 4: but you have to admit since the trade deadline, the
Speaker 4: most dominant left he has been Blake Snell.
Speaker 13: I think that's what we're starting to see now is
Speaker 13: the Dodgers postseason rotation coming to form, and Blake Snell,
Speaker 13: to me, has been the guy that's really stood out
Speaker 13: as a reason to be even more excited for October
Speaker 13: just because of how dominant he's looked. The stuff has
Speaker 13: played up. He looks like the Blake Snell we thought
Speaker 13: we'd see all season. We know in Dodgerland what matters
Speaker 13: has come September, these guys being healthy and coming into form.
Speaker 13: We've seen a really good version of Blake Snell so far.
Speaker 13: But you know me, Besse, I like to see three
Speaker 13: stars from a picture before definitively claiming them back. We'll
Speaker 13: see it today, hopefully against the Pirates.
Speaker 4: Is that your rules? The three start rule.
Speaker 13: It's the three start rule?
Speaker 4: Yes, interesting? All right, Well you'll see that today. What
Speaker 4: did you think about Schooble? Was that his best start
Speaker 4: as a Dodger yesterday?
Speaker 13: I think so. There were a couple of things I
Speaker 13: liked about schooble start, most notably the eleven strikeouts and
Speaker 13: the way that he finished the game and his last
Speaker 13: strikeout in the sixth sitting. He pumped in his second
Speaker 13: hardest pitch all season, one hundred mile per hour fastball,
Speaker 13: and for a pitcher to be able to still tap
Speaker 13: into that and have that velocity that deep into games
Speaker 13: says something to me. I think what Scooble would like
Speaker 13: to see, and I think the Dodgers as well. As
Speaker 13: finding a way for him to come out and start
Speaker 13: the games with that kind of intensity. It feels like
Speaker 13: while his four starts in Dodger Blue have been certainly fine,
Speaker 13: he's not a pitcher that settles for fine. He wants
Speaker 13: to go out and dominate. And in the first couple
Speaker 13: of innings at each of his first four starts, he's
Speaker 13: gone to some traffic, had a couple of runs scores.
Speaker 13: So the key going forward for Schooble is finding a
Speaker 13: way to come out with that same intensity. He'll get
Speaker 13: a big test. His next start should be Friday against
Speaker 13: the Tigers. All eyes are going to be on that one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're even traveling to Detroit for that one.
Speaker 13: That's right, we can hang out.
Speaker 4: Do you think he'll get as emotional as Freddy Freeman
Speaker 4: did in Atlanta?
Speaker 13: Well, that's a high bar. But I think we've certainly
Speaker 13: seen how much Detroit means to Schooble, And obviously you
Speaker 13: think about it's the only organization he's ever been with.
Speaker 13: This wasn't a situation where he chose to go anywhere.
Speaker 13: He was traded. His team ultimately said we're going to
Speaker 13: send you somewhere else. Certainly, a lot of feelings and
Speaker 13: emotions tied to that place. But I think Scoople's done
Speaker 13: a really nice job of embracing his new home. You
Speaker 13: see him talking with Miggey Rowe, the nicknames he has,
Speaker 13: and just kind of embracing what he wants to do
Speaker 13: with the Dodgers, which is win a World Series. So
Speaker 13: it will be an emotional reunion, but I think there'll
Speaker 13: be some incentive to kind of show it to his
Speaker 13: old team.
Speaker 4: It'll be hard for him starting that first game in
Speaker 4: Detroit right to really be able to get into his feelings.
Speaker 4: So what do you expect as far as the reception
Speaker 4: for him when he takes the mound in Detroit?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 13: I would expect a standing ovation. I mean, this is
Speaker 13: a guy who has been meant so much this Tigers organization.
Speaker 13: You think about where he started in his career, how
Speaker 13: he'd advance, and how he's become one of the top
Speaker 13: pictuers of not the best pictures in the league at all,
Speaker 13: started with the Tigers, and I think Tiger fans are
Speaker 13: certainly very appreciative of that, and they know this wasn't
Speaker 13: something that he said I wanted to leave. It's just
Speaker 13: unfortunately part of the business and These are going to
Speaker 13: be big games for the Tigers as well. Despite their
Speaker 13: sell off at the deadline, they're still very much in
Speaker 13: a very meek americanly Wildcard picture.
Speaker 4: I like that description. Meek, you're more kind than I am.
Speaker 4: Katie Wu from The Athletic is our guest yesterday show. Hey,
Speaker 4: Otani threw his first live BP since going on the IL.
Speaker 4: It feels like Otani's the one that's kind of dictating
Speaker 4: all this. Obviously he's the best player on the planet.
Speaker 4: Why wouldn't he What do you expect O'tani wants? As
Speaker 4: far as his next.
Speaker 13: Step, I think if Otani had any say, he'd be
Speaker 13: pitching tomorrow. Obviously that's not going to be the case.
Speaker 13: He's gonna throw one more bullpen in Atlanta, Dave Roberts
Speaker 13: told us today, and then the team is going to
Speaker 13: reevaluate what that looks like and if he's gonna throw
Speaker 13: another live or return to a major league mound. Now,
Speaker 13: I believe, just knowing what we know about Otani and
Speaker 13: how badly he wants to pitch, that if he comes
Speaker 13: out of this bullpen in Atlanta feeling well, that he's
Speaker 13: going to go straight into game action. Dave Roberts said,
Speaker 13: there's a chance we see him pitch within next week.
Speaker 13: I'm looking at the schedule ahead. My pure speculation here
Speaker 13: looking at Sunday, Dodgers don't have a starter schedule for
Speaker 13: that day. They do have Eric Laower available in bulkan relief.
Speaker 13: If Shohey comes out of that bullpen in Atlanta and
Speaker 13: everything is deemed good to go, Dodge's not gonna rush him,
Speaker 13: But if so, I could see him taking perhaps that
Speaker 13: one inning opener on Sunday, have Eric Blower to piggyback.
Speaker 13: If not Sunday, there's an open Monday before the Dodgers
Speaker 13: open up a three game set against Saint Louis, that
Speaker 13: also remains an option.
Speaker 4: That's the question. Obviously, we saw it last year where
Speaker 4: he would have his rehab starts in major league games,
Speaker 4: and Justin Robleski was the guy that would piggyback him
Speaker 4: a lot last year. Obviously, Robleski's on the IL. Do
Speaker 4: you feel like it's going to be a mix of
Speaker 4: Lour and Robleski piggybacking him in those starts.
Speaker 13: I think to start it's gonna be lower, just because
Speaker 13: he's built up and we know this progression based on
Speaker 13: last year with Otani, it's going to be one inning
Speaker 13: to start, then possibly two when you're gonna want a
Speaker 13: guy really stretched out like Eric lawer Is. The Dodgers
Speaker 13: expect Justin Rabuski to be off the IL close to
Speaker 13: when he's eligible too, so when the next couple days
Speaker 13: are or early weeks, and then we'll kind of be
Speaker 13: able to see as O Tawny progresses in game action
Speaker 13: how they use the piggyback option to have both those
Speaker 13: guys available Right now, though, I think the big key
Speaker 13: is again getting show Hey through that bullpen, which should
Speaker 13: be his last in Atlanta, and then seeing when he's
Speaker 13: coming back to the Mountain. Dodgers certainly looking forward to
Speaker 13: having him back.
Speaker 4: All right, Katie, thanks a lot for the time. Great
Speaker 4: to share snell Zilla's Sunday with you, and we'll look
Speaker 4: forward to seeing you in Motown.
Speaker 13: Do you know if as wouldn't want to spend snell
Speaker 13: Zilla Sunday with anyone else?

Speaker 6: good well the very first.
Speaker 7: Game that he pitched, so we were shocked in seeing
Speaker 7: the control of the curveball as consistently as well. You've
Speaker 7: seen it. That's a field pitch along with the change
Speaker 7: up on top of it. For the fact, twenty strikeouts
Speaker 7: in fifteen innings for Blake Snell, he has just been
Speaker 7: a big, big force and the Dodgers obviously open arms
Speaker 7: say hell yeah, welcome back and pitch very well. The
Speaker 7: other part two is the Dodgers know Bocker a little bit.
