Speaker 1: Let the phones on a home run.
Speaker 2: I'm ready to go. Welcome to the playoffs, Dodger fans.
Speaker 3: Is playoff time when your favorite.
Speaker 4: Show, thirteen wins is all it takes on that half and.
Speaker 2: Escape for you.
Speaker 5: Welcome to a playoff edition of Dodger Talk.
Speaker 6: Get in on the action at eight six six.
Speaker 2: Eats Breeze, sleeps Baseball.
Speaker 7: Now we go to your award winning broadcasters of the
Speaker 7: world champion Dodgers.
Speaker 8: Here's your host of Dodger Talk.
Speaker 2: It's only been fourteen years. Every day, David Basse. Your
Speaker 2: Dodgers are just one win away from the World Series
Speaker 2: after they beat the Brewers three to one in Game three,
Speaker 2: the NLCS welcome the Dodger Talk. David Vasse with you
Speaker 2: until eight o'clock tonight at eight six six nine eight
Speaker 2: seven two five seventy. Jose Moto will check in at
Speaker 2: seven thirty. Well head downstairs to get postgame reaction and
Speaker 2: of course we want to hear from you at eight
Speaker 2: six six nine eighty seven two five seventy. The Dodgers
Speaker 2: are looking to become just the eleventh team to sweep
Speaker 2: a championship series. The last to do it was the
Speaker 2: twenty two Astros when they swept the Yankees in the ALCS.
Speaker 2: The last National League team to sweep the Championship Series
Speaker 2: was the eventual world champion twenty nineteen Nationals, who swept
Speaker 2: the Cardinals, and only three of the ten teams that
Speaker 2: swept the Championship Series went on to win the World Series.
Speaker 2: I mentioned the nineteen Nationals. Also those twenty two Astros
Speaker 2: did as well, and so did the nineteen ninety five Braves.
Speaker 2: Eight six six, nine eighty seven two five seventy is
Speaker 2: the phone number I thought. A pivotal inning in this
Speaker 2: game was the second inning, after the Dodgers were able
Speaker 2: to get a one nothing lead after an o time
Speaker 2: leadoff triple, then Mookie Betts doubled him home. Tyler Glass
Speaker 2: now was in a little bit of trouble. He allowed
Speaker 2: one run in and there was a second run standing
Speaker 2: at third base with the nine hitter for the Brewers,
Speaker 2: Joey Ortiz at the plate. Max Munsey was playing in
Speaker 2: at the edge of the grass and Ortiz hit a
Speaker 2: line drive right at Munsey on the ground. Munsey was
Speaker 2: able to instinctually grab it and throw a perfect strike
Speaker 2: to Will Smith to cut down the run and be
Speaker 2: able to end that inning or get the second out
Speaker 2: of that inning, and then Isaac Collins flew out to
Speaker 2: end that excuse me, Joey Ortiz. After Joey Ortize lined
Speaker 2: out to Munsey for the fielders' choice, he was able
Speaker 2: to get Bowers at the plate, and then Jackson Curio
Speaker 2: flew out to end the inning. So that was a
Speaker 2: great play by Munsey in the second inning to nail
Speaker 2: Bowers at the plate. And after that in the third inning,
Speaker 2: Glass now comes back and strikes out the side in order.
Speaker 2: So that was a big turn of events right there.
Speaker 2: And that's the second great defensive play Max Munsey has
Speaker 2: made at third base in this postseason. Remember that wheel
Speaker 2: play in Game two, ninth inning to preserve a one
Speaker 2: run win. Well, that was Max Munsey who made a
Speaker 2: great throw to third base. And then tonight in the
Speaker 2: second inning making a great throw and stabbed to be
Speaker 2: able to get Bowers at home plate. And it was
Speaker 2: a one to one tie until the sixth inning when
Speaker 2: Tommy Edmund broke it with a go ahead RBI single.
Speaker 2: And give a lot of credit to the Dodger bullpen,
Speaker 2: a lot of criticism, much maligned they came in after
Speaker 2: Glass now's five and two thirds innings and put up
Speaker 2: zeros Vesia got the last out of the sixth inning,
Speaker 2: came back and got the first out of the seventh,
Speaker 2: then trying closed out the seventh, Bonda pitched the scoreless
Speaker 2: eighth inning, and then Roki Sasaki closed out the game
Speaker 2: with an assist to Mookie Betts, who made a tremendous play,
Speaker 2: a Derek Jeter esque play in the hole at shortstop
Speaker 2: for the first out of that ninth inning. So like
Speaker 2: it's been all postseason, this was a team win. So
Speaker 2: many different contributions offensively, defensively from the pitching side, and
Speaker 2: the Dodgers got all of that tonight and that's a
Speaker 2: big reason why they have only lost one game in
Speaker 2: this postseason. They are eight to one in this year's
Speaker 2: playoffs with an opportunity to sweep the Brewers tomorrow night
Speaker 2: at Dodgers Stadium. Eight six six nine eight seven two
Speaker 2: five seventy is the phone number. Speaking up Mookie Betts.
Speaker 2: We had a chance to catch up with the gold
Speaker 2: Gloff candidate himself moments after the final out.
Speaker 9: That was Peter ask that first stout man, it must
Speaker 9: feel good to be able to help the team out
Speaker 9: and win this game.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, that's all I that's all I care about. Just
Speaker 4: Le's winning ball games. You know, that's a that's the
Speaker 4: reason why we play and that's what makes it fun.
Speaker 9: Hey, no wonder you're a Gold Glove finalist as short stop.
Speaker 2: You showed everybody why.
Speaker 4: I mean, it's a lot of work. It's a lot
Speaker 4: of work. A lot of people have helped me. But uh,
Speaker 4: I'm just happy. Like I said, I'm just happy to
Speaker 4: help the boys.
Speaker 9: Mookie in the first inning, you guys got.
Speaker 2: On the board early. Not sure if you realize this,
Speaker 2: but you're in the Dodger history books. You have the
Speaker 2: most doubles and Dodgers postseason history after your RBI double
Speaker 2: to drive in Otani. How good was it to see
Speaker 2: him get on for you and be able to get
Speaker 2: that early run.
Speaker 4: Ah, it's huge just to get on the board first,
Speaker 4: getting show going.
Speaker 2: That's really important for us.
Speaker 4: It's kind of like the Bullets playing without Michael Jordan.
Speaker 4: But he'll be there when it's time.
Speaker 2: You know, he's your pitpin.
Speaker 4: No no, I'll not no, no, but he'll be there
Speaker 4: when it's time. And I'm as you saw, he let
Speaker 4: off with a triple and we are to put one
Speaker 4: on the board and played downhill from there.
Speaker 2: You guys have had such a team effort all year long.
Speaker 2: You're one win away from going back to the World Series.
Speaker 9: Can you even allow yourself to think that, allow yourself
Speaker 9: to realize you're that close?
Speaker 2: Not yet? Not yet? Well, let's get one more.
Speaker 4: Win and then hopefully we can take take a couple
Speaker 4: of days or whatever it is, and then we can reset.
Speaker 4: But we you know how hard it is to win
Speaker 4: ball games, and so you can't turn.
Speaker 2: Your brain off.
Speaker 4: And you really just got a grind through these through October.
Speaker 2: Really, I know who will be the first guy out
Speaker 2: here tomorrow, Marcus lim Betts. You better know it. Thanks
Speaker 2: a lot for the time. Mookie. There. He is Mookie Bets,
Speaker 2: who certainly has made a statement all season long. So
Speaker 2: many doubters out there believe that he shouldn't be playing shortstop,
Speaker 2: he wasn't good at playing shortstop. Well, he has certainly
Speaker 2: turned a lot of critics to fans after the way
Speaker 2: he's played, especially the last two months of the season
Speaker 2: and going into the playoffs, he's done a phenomenal job
Speaker 2: and he has an opportunity to make history if he
Speaker 2: wins the goal Glove at shortstop. Can't think of any
Speaker 2: other player out there that could say that they won
Speaker 2: the gold Glove in right field six times, and in
Speaker 2: their first full season playing shortstop of all positions, wins
Speaker 2: the gold Glove there. But that secondary to Mookie getting
Speaker 2: another ring and the Dodgers winning back to back World
Speaker 2: Series titles. Eight six six nine eight seven two five
Speaker 2: seventy is the phone number. Dodgers beat the Brewers three
Speaker 2: to one in Game three. We have a full bord
Speaker 2: of calls before we do go back out to the calls.
Speaker 2: I just want to make a statement. I love Dodger fans.
Speaker 2: Without the fans, uh, this show would not exist. The Dodgers'
Speaker 2: success in the environment, on their way to a World
Speaker 2: S last year and on their way to another one
Speaker 2: this year would not exist without the fans. But you
Speaker 2: gotta be better tomorrow. You gotta be louder tomorrow. You
Speaker 2: want the Dodger players to always be better, to strive
Speaker 2: to be better the next day, Well, I'm calling you
Speaker 2: out be better tomorrow. Because Jacob Mizarowski was way too
Speaker 2: comfortable in those five innings of work. Everybody was on
Speaker 2: their hands I was watching you. It wasn't until you know,
Speaker 2: maybe the sixth inning when the crowd started to rise up,
Speaker 2: and in that ninth inning, I was waiting for that
Speaker 2: all game long, the support for Roki Sasaki. You've got
Speaker 2: to make the opposing pitcher feel rattled, feel the pressure
Speaker 2: of the stadium, feel the pressure of the Dodgers. The
Speaker 2: Dodgers give you a lot to cheer about. They need
Speaker 2: their tenth man in you tomorrow and into the World Series.
Speaker 2: Eight six six eight seven two five seventy is the
Speaker 2: phone number, Jeff, you were at the game tonight. I
Speaker 2: was a little disappointed with the fans this afternoon, but
Speaker 2: hopefully tomorrow you guys bring your voices.
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, Dave gla As you said that because
Speaker 10: me and my buddy Marek also from Love from lovell Indo.
Speaker 1: It was kind of quite real sitting in that section.
Speaker 10: Nine are the reserve section, and we were only loud
Speaker 10: and seems like during the ninth inning and also during
Speaker 10: the sixth when we.
Speaker 11: Had records on the DA.
Speaker 10: Other than that it was like really quiet. But what
Speaker 10: I really want to ask you is do you think
Speaker 10: that since the bullpen is such a really good job,
Speaker 10: you know, we were kind of freaked out when Blake
Speaker 10: Trannon came in there. I know you love him, but
Speaker 10: he really, you know, showed his poinies and did a
Speaker 10: great job. You think this will like bring a lot
Speaker 10: of like motivation and this will increase the confidence of
Speaker 10: this bullpen moving forward as they go to the World.
Speaker 2: Series without a doubt, Jeff, And look, I know it's
Speaker 2: hard to believe guys like Blake Trin and Alex Vessia,
Speaker 2: even Anthony Banda who pitched so well last year into
Speaker 2: the World Series, even they are human and in sometimes
Speaker 2: have self doubt. But ever since the last regular season
Speaker 2: series in Seattle, I've seen a greater confidence and the
Speaker 2: old Blake Trining back. And I saw that yesterday at
Speaker 2: the workout. I saw that the day before in Milwaukee.
Speaker 2: He's just been a more confident Blake Trining And I
Speaker 2: believe you saw that on display on the mound, and
Speaker 2: same with Vessia and Bonda. It was great to see
Speaker 2: all those guys be able to not only get outs,
Speaker 2: but get them out pretty cleanly.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 10: Also, you know what, the sixth thinning was a really
Speaker 10: big part because that you know that pitcher for Malat can'
Speaker 10: think it was named He's a rookie. He was like
Speaker 10: a rock for them until Will Smith got that slap
Speaker 10: hit and started the whole rally. That was outstanding.
Speaker 2: It was Jeff, and that's why I needed That's why
Speaker 2: I'm calling out the fans. He was too comfortable. It
Speaker 2: was like a mid week game against the Rockies in
Speaker 2: June from about the second inning until the sixth inning.
Speaker 10: Jeff, Yeah, you know, it was like soo sry. That
Speaker 10: picture really kept us kept us quiet there. But you know,
Speaker 10: there was a couple, you know, players in a couple
Speaker 10: of fans that were out there that was outstated that
Speaker 10: kept trying to keep us motivated. But I also want
Speaker 10: to give glasnow you know, some credit to We really
Speaker 10: thought that we were like, oh great, now you know
Speaker 10: the second any of the first any happened when they
Speaker 10: when they got those runs, that one run that we
Speaker 10: thought he was going to like totally mess up the
Speaker 10: flow of the game. But no, he took through it.
Speaker 10: I know, Monsey's an awesome feel that when he pitched
Speaker 10: it through it to that catcher, through to Will Smith,
Speaker 10: that really shut the momentum down for Milwaukee.
Speaker 2: No doubt. Thanks for the phone call, Jeff, appreciate it.
Speaker 2: Let's go out to Raymond, who also was that Dodger
Speaker 2: Stadium today. Hi, Raymond, you're on Dodger Talk.
Speaker 12: Hey David, how are you.
Speaker 2: I'm doing great, Raymond.
Speaker 12: No, I just want to say a few things. I mean,
Speaker 12: that month he'd played, we had a great angle. We
Speaker 12: were sitting in section two of the field, I mean
Speaker 12: section ten of the field. What a play.
Speaker 11: It had to be a perfect.
Speaker 12: Throw, bang bang. And I mean months he's been phenomenal.
Speaker 12: And the pitching on both sides, I mean, I mean
Speaker 12: the Brewers pitching Kepta at Bay.
Speaker 2: What a game.
Speaker 12: Yes, the crowd was out of it, and I think
Speaker 12: I had to do with that with the pitching, but
Speaker 12: we still Yeah.
Speaker 2: But in those situations, Raymond, here's my thing. I've seen Seattle,
Speaker 2: I've seen Philly, I've seen Milwaukee. Even when the pitcher's
Speaker 2: on his game, they're trying to rattle that picture. He's
Speaker 2: a young guy. And the stadium was absolutely quiet. The
Speaker 2: fans could have done a better job to get loud,
Speaker 2: to try to rattle and make things a little bit
Speaker 2: more difficult. I've seen Dodgers Stadium so loud, where all
Speaker 2: of a sudden, they're having problems with the Pitchcolm, they
Speaker 2: can't hear each other. That just wasn't the case today.
Speaker 2: But luckily the Dodgers got the win. All I'm asking
Speaker 2: for is for Dodger fans not to take this team
Speaker 2: for granted and think, you know what, they got this,
Speaker 2: they got the World Series. They need the fans to
Speaker 2: be that tenth man to really make things uncomfortable for
Speaker 2: the opposing team. And I just didn't hear it today.
Speaker 12: Great point, David, you're and you're right. I think we're
Speaker 12: taking it for granted. How dominating the look and we
Speaker 12: we we we say we got it. Don't worry, we
Speaker 12: got it.
Speaker 3: You're right.
Speaker 12: I totally agree. I try my bath. But in that
Speaker 12: in that field level, section ten, there's a lot of
Speaker 12: people with money there don't want to cheer very hard
Speaker 12: compared to the Pavilions or the top deg But in
Speaker 12: the left.
Speaker 2: The way, Raymond, you start the way for those rich
Speaker 2: people in the field section. Okay, thanks for the phone call.
Speaker 2: Eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy is
Speaker 2: the phone number. Uh, let's go out to Jose who
Speaker 2: also is at Dodger Stadium. Jose, you got to see
Speaker 2: a pretty well pitched game, and you got to see
Speaker 2: the Dodgers knock on the door of going back to
Speaker 2: the World Series.
Speaker 6: Hey, what's up, mystery one eight?
Speaker 2: That's right, Hey to you, Jose, it's not mister eight
Speaker 2: one eight. It's mister grade one eight.
Speaker 13: Oh okay, great one eight.
Speaker 6: Taking. No, I'm not.
Speaker 13: And you know, like from you know, mid season, when
Speaker 13: they were struggling and.
Speaker 14: It was it was it's it was pretty hard. It
Speaker 14: was it was a tough you know, mid or half
Speaker 14: of the season. And now they're playing great and we're,
Speaker 14: like you said, we're sitting on on our on our hands.
Speaker 6: We should be loud.
Speaker 2: And remember Susha and Steve Sachs saying it's cs the time.
Speaker 2: They said, it's time for Dodger baseball. I know it's
Speaker 2: mid afternoon. I like to take naps during the afternoon,
Speaker 2: but you come to the game. You got to support
Speaker 2: your team.
Speaker 13: Yes, I understand, yeah, I U. I agree with you
Speaker 13: that when the Miz was pitching, it was too too quiet.
Speaker 13: We we need to put pressure on their pictures, especially
Speaker 13: a picture like his caliber. You got to get them
Speaker 13: off his game.
Speaker 2: Exactly. That's my point. That's all I'm asking and all
Speaker 2: I'm asking for. I understand it's looking really good for
Speaker 2: the Dodgers to get to the World Series. I understand
Speaker 2: that they're definitely outplaying the Brewers right now. But you
Speaker 2: can't take it for granted. You can't just be sitting
Speaker 2: on your hands. A full house here at Dodgers Stadium,
Speaker 2: and you know, allow a kid like that who's dominating,
Speaker 2: has the shadows in his favor, have a quiet house
Speaker 2: while he's pitching. I mean, that makes things really easy
Speaker 2: for the opponent. In Milwaukee, they were on their feet
Speaker 2: in the fourth inning. In Seattle, when those games didn't
Speaker 2: mean anything, they were on their feet in the first inning.
Speaker 2: And in Milwaukee and Philly, same thing, on their feet
Speaker 2: trying to make things a little bit more difficult for
Speaker 2: the Dodgers, and the pictures on the mound the opposing team.
Speaker 2: So come on. I know Dodger fans can get loud.
Speaker 2: Today they were not loud at all. But the Dodgers
Speaker 2: were able to win this game and do what they've
Speaker 2: done to the Brewers in the first three games of
Speaker 2: this series. They just have too much pitching for the
Speaker 2: Brewers today was basically, you know, Pat Murphy not holding
Speaker 2: anything back, a little bit of desperation going with the
Speaker 2: opener in Ashby again and then bringing in Misowski in
Speaker 2: the first inning. Misslerowski's his best pitcher. He used him today.
Speaker 2: They got jose Kntana trying to keep their season alive.
Speaker 2: That's how dire the Brewers pitching situation is. I fully
Speaker 2: expect the Dodgers, behind Otani pitching tomorrow to come out
Speaker 2: and close out this series. I really do. But you
Speaker 2: can't take that for granted. Eight six six nine, eight
Speaker 2: seven two five seventy is the phone number. Dodgers beat
Speaker 2: the Brewers three to one in Game three the NLCS.
Speaker 2: Let's head downstairs right now to hear from manager Dave Roberts.
Speaker 8: Dave, coming into the postseason, obviously, we talked about the
Speaker 8: issues guys were having the pen, between Vessia trying in
Speaker 8: and Sasaki. It seems like you guys kind of have
Speaker 8: a you know, kind of like a blueprint so to speak,
Speaker 8: going forward here. How comfortable have you been with I
Speaker 8: guess how that's been coming together?
Speaker 15: Very I think the thing about our guys is they're
Speaker 15: battle tested and they know that I've never lost faith
Speaker 15: in them. They never lost confidence in each other and so,
Speaker 15: you know, so for what to see what they're doing
Speaker 15: right now, I'm not surprised. And we knew all along
Speaker 15: that we're gonna need these guys, and these guys are delivering,
Speaker 15: which which is huge. And you know, we're doing a
Speaker 15: great job of preventing runs and the bullpen deserves a
Speaker 15: lot of credit.
Speaker 8: And obviously you kind of needed that extra inning today
Speaker 8: and you went to Bonda there. Uh, you know, he's
Speaker 8: pitched what he pitched once in like the last three weeks.
Speaker 8: How are you comfortable going to him? And in that situation,
Speaker 8: I just.
Speaker 15: Think that Anthony's grown a lot. I think the moment
Speaker 15: and is now is not going to be too big
Speaker 15: for him. I just feel that he's, you know, ready
Speaker 15: for whatever is asked of him. He's in a good
Speaker 15: mental space and the stuff is obviously very good. So
Speaker 15: for me, regardless of inning, I trust him. And like
Speaker 15: I said, he's still in the baseball has a lot
Speaker 15: of confidence right now, and so to run him out
Speaker 15: there against the middle of the order, I had no
Speaker 15: problem with that.
Speaker 2: Go here in the front row.
Speaker 5: So your love, Hey Dave, can you just talk a
Speaker 5: little bit about just Mookie's defense and what you've seen
Speaker 5: how it continues to just evolve and it gets elevates
Speaker 5: and really comes and clutch.
Speaker 15: He's made big plays. Yeah, that play going to his
Speaker 15: backhand just to kind of let Rokie settle in. He
Speaker 15: just continues to make great plays and it's rightfully so
Speaker 15: he's in the gold Glove conversation at shortstop and that
Speaker 15: was a big play. You just never know, get the
Speaker 15: leadoff runner on. You know how that inning could have evolved.
Speaker 15: And earlier that play by Munsey was a heck of
Speaker 15: a play, you know, infield drawn in going to his
Speaker 15: left spin make an accurate throw to get get that
Speaker 15: out at home. That was a big play as well.
Speaker 6: Go here second roll in the right dave.
Speaker 16: Earlier this season, after one of his early outings, Rokie,
Speaker 16: there's a visual of him looking emotional. It wasn't the
Speaker 16: performance he wanted to have, but for him to, you know,
Speaker 16: go through his rookie year, come back from injury and
Speaker 16: now deliver in these high leverage situations. What can you
Speaker 16: say about his growth?
Speaker 15: His growth has been certainly not linear. At that point
Speaker 15: in time where you know he was scuffling and emotional
Speaker 15: on the bench and there's a lot of you know,
Speaker 15: video and photos of that, and for him to kind
Speaker 15: of self reflect, get healthy and put himself back on
Speaker 15: the radar for our twenty twenty five ball club speaks
Speaker 15: to his his fight. And you know, I don't think
Speaker 15: anyone could have, you know, for foreseeing him in this
Speaker 15: role in April or May, and so I give a
Speaker 15: lot of credit to Roki to kind of get to
Speaker 15: that point. And now you know he can look back
Speaker 15: at twenty twenty five and look fondly at it.
Speaker 2: Fourth row in the middle here in the blue. Hey, Dave,
Speaker 2: I know you're up three.
Speaker 13: Oh, so this is kind of tough question, but you
Speaker 13: seem to if you're leaving a lot of tack on
Speaker 13: runs on the basis not moving runners over, and does.
Speaker 17: That concern you at all?
Speaker 2: Say that again, not getting.
Speaker 11: Runners in from third with less than two hours, not
Speaker 11: moving runners over?
Speaker 1: Does that concern you at all?
Speaker 2: I wouldn't say concerned. But we got to be better.
Speaker 15: I think that you're always trying to figure out how
Speaker 15: you can improve as a ball club. And I do
Speaker 15: think that, you know, Tommy's at back today was huge,
Speaker 15: runners in scoring position. I thought Freddy's at bat to
Speaker 15: get him up was a huge at bat. But yeah,
Speaker 15: I do think that the situational we can be better
Speaker 15: at that. For sure. We got to be better.
Speaker 2: We have time for two more.
Speaker 17: We'll start with Russell in the back there near the camera.
Speaker 6: Douc a lot of pitches for Tyler through that first
Speaker 6: two innings.
Speaker 2: What did you see the change from him in the third?
Speaker 8: There was allowed able to allow him to get to
Speaker 8: five and two thirds.
Speaker 15: I thought the curveball got better. The curveball started to
Speaker 15: become more of a more of a pitch for him,
Speaker 15: and they went heavy left today and that was a
Speaker 15: pitch that was able to neutralize those guys. I thought
Speaker 15: Will did a great job the sequencing using the fastball enough.
Speaker 15: But yeah, you know, I think for me is that's
Speaker 15: really proud of Tyler in the sense of the pitch
Speaker 15: count was early and knowing we still needed length from
Speaker 15: him and for him to kind of stay, you know,
Speaker 15: keep his wits about him and to keep making pitches,
Speaker 15: keep competing and shorten the game. That's what we need
Speaker 15: from him. And he's done that. The last call it
Speaker 15: you know, six or seven starts, all.
Speaker 2: Right, there's manager Dave Roberts moments ago in the press
Speaker 2: conference room. I guess that one reporter doesn't like the
Speaker 2: fact the Dodgers have only lost one playoff game this year.
Speaker 2: He's a little TICKI tak right there. Huh, don't recognize
Speaker 2: that voice. How about have that guy introduced himself and
Speaker 2: give some background. Huh eight six six ninety seven two
Speaker 2: five seventy is the phone number. The Dodgers one went
Speaker 2: away from going back to the World Series after a
Speaker 2: three to one win in Game three of the NLCS.
Speaker 2: And for the Brewers, their offense has just hit a
Speaker 2: lull at the worst time of the year. The Milwaukee
Speaker 2: offense has only scored nine runs in their last six games.
Speaker 2: The Dodgers starters have a lot to say about that,
Speaker 2: but also the fact that the Brewers are a team
Speaker 2: that likes to walk and string hits together. They just
Speaker 2: have not been able to get anything going against the
Speaker 2: Dodgers pitching. And obviously, going back to that NLDS that
Speaker 2: they beat the Cubs in five games, the offense just
Speaker 2: hasn't been hitting on all cylinders while the Dodger offense
Speaker 2: has been hitting on all cylinders for the last couple
Speaker 2: of weeks. And it says a lot, you know, I know,
Speaker 2: everybody wants to continue to focus on the fact that
Speaker 2: Otani has struggled offensively this postseason, which he has, But
Speaker 2: what does it say about the Dodgers that they are
Speaker 2: one win away from sweeping the Brewers and going back
Speaker 2: to the World Series With Otani not even being a
Speaker 2: factor offensively in the postseason. That's got to be scary
Speaker 2: for the next round the World Series for either the
Speaker 2: Blue Jays or the Mariners, because Otani's not going to
Speaker 2: be held down for much longer. We saw him hit
Speaker 2: a slider, he kind of reached out for it. It
Speaker 2: turned into a triple down the right field line. Jackson Curio,
Speaker 2: who normally doesn't play right field, didn't jump on it.
Speaker 2: He's also been nursing a right hamstring injury, and we
Speaker 2: found out from Jackson Curio after the game that it
Speaker 2: wasn't a blowout of the hamstring. It was a cramp
Speaker 2: that he just couldn't get out and he expects to
Speaker 2: be in the lineup tomorrow for Game four. But going
Speaker 2: back to Otani, yes, he hasn't been a factor. The
Speaker 2: running scored in the first inning was the first run
Speaker 2: that he has scored since the Wildcard series against the Reds.
Speaker 2: But look at the Dodgers. In Game two, it was
Speaker 2: the five through nine hitters that provided the offense. Tonight
Speaker 2: it was Tommy Edman, Mookie Betts, a bad throw by
Speaker 2: admir Yuribe that allowed the pitching staff to have a
Speaker 2: two run cushion. So combined with the Dodgers starting pitching,
Speaker 2: that just beats you down as an opponent when you
Speaker 2: know you have to face Glassnew in game three. If
Speaker 2: Glassnew was wearing a Brewers uniform, there's a good chance
Speaker 2: he's starting Game one for them. Blake Snell and Yamamoto
Speaker 2: are certainly starting Game one for them, And the Dodgers
Speaker 2: have Type four of those type of pitchers aces tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Another one's on the mound in Otani. So there's just
Speaker 2: too much, too much from the Dodgers. And look, if
Speaker 2: you want to get into you know this is such
Speaker 2: an unfair matchup between the little old Brewers and the
Speaker 2: big bad Dodgers. We can get into it because if
Speaker 2: you want to look at the Dodgers starting lineup, I'll
Speaker 2: tell you how these guys got here in the same lineup.
Speaker 2: And it wasn't just the Dodgers throwing a bunch of
Speaker 2: Kashia Guys Show Hey Otani. Yes, seven hundred million dollar contract,
Speaker 2: but the reality is he's only a two million hit
Speaker 2: against the luxury tax because he and the Dodgers strategically
Speaker 2: structured it that way. And oh, by the way, Otani
Speaker 2: offered that to all the teams that were a finalist,
Speaker 2: the Blue Jays, the Angels, and the Dodgers. But the
Speaker 2: Dodgers and their ownership and their front office and their
Speaker 2: marketing have done a better job of maximizing the show
Speaker 2: Hey Otani brand than the Angels did. So that's on
Speaker 2: the Angels, Mookie Betts. How did he get here?
Speaker 15: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. The Red Sox did not want to
Speaker 2: continue to try to work out a contract with him
Speaker 2: and traded him away for Alex Verdugo and Connor Wong.
Speaker 2: Will Smith drafted and developed by the Dodgers, extended by
Speaker 2: the Dodgers. Freddie Freeman cast off from the Braves. Can
Speaker 2: you believe that Freddie Freeman? The Braves didn't want him?
Speaker 2: He signed after spring training started Tommy Edmond. The Dodgers
Speaker 2: used their prospects to acquire him and Michael Kopek. Last
Speaker 2: trade deadline, they gave up Miguel Vargas for him, Thank
Speaker 2: you Saint Louis Teoscar Hernandez. Nobody wanted to sign him
Speaker 2: last year. The Dodgers gave him a one year contract
Speaker 2: and worked out another one. Max Munsey and keyk Hernandez.
Speaker 2: Nobody heard of those guys before the Dodgers brought them
Speaker 2: up through the system and they arrived on the scene.
Speaker 2: Key Gain fifteen, Max Munsey in eighteen. Andy Pa has
Speaker 2: drafted and developed. Yes, the Dodgers have thrown money at
Speaker 2: their starting pitchers, but well worth it. So I don't
Speaker 2: want to hear about the Dodgers winning is bad for
Speaker 2: baseball or it's going to trigger some sort of labor issue.
Speaker 2: Take a step back, don't be irrational and realize that
Speaker 2: it's other teams that actually helped the Dodgers build this
Speaker 2: juggernaut of a lineup. And they did go out and
Speaker 2: trade for Glass, now extend him. They did sign Blake Snell,
Speaker 2: but there were a lot of other teams that could
Speaker 2: have kept Blakesnell, namely the Padres, but they chose to
Speaker 2: extend Jake Croninworth and Joe Musgrove and give Many Machado
Speaker 2: even more money. Who's that on the Dodgers or the Padres.
Speaker 2: So some of these organizations sounds like Fomo and sour grapes.
Speaker 2: Eight six six nine eight seven two seventy is the
Speaker 2: phone number. Dodgers beat the Brewers three to one in
Speaker 2: are on the cusp of returning to the World Series,
Speaker 2: and then from that point on we'll talk about their
Speaker 2: place not only in Dodger history, but in baseball history.
Speaker 2: Let's go out to Charlie, who is a Dodgers stadium today.
Speaker 2: Hi Charlie, you're on Dodger Talk.
Speaker 18: Hey DV, thanks for getting me on. I just want
Speaker 18: to say you're one hundred percent on.
Speaker 5: Our fan base.
Speaker 18: We've been going to a lot of playoff games and
Speaker 18: this season we've gone to about eleven games, and we're
Speaker 18: the games we've gone to my family and we've been
Speaker 18: ten and one. So I'm I don't know if it's superstition,
Speaker 18: but I feel that we definitely have an impact on
Speaker 18: the game.
Speaker 6: We've had some field seats and.
Speaker 18: We sat on the on the on the behind the dugout,
Speaker 18: and I just got to say a lot of our
Speaker 18: fans just kind of sit back like if it's a
Speaker 18: preseason game, like they're watching it from home. And so
Speaker 18: I'm that guy that gets up and rallies everybody.
Speaker 6: And we have a rallies out.
Speaker 18: For a reason, and I don't care if the people
Speaker 18: behind me are tell me sit down. I'm up there
Speaker 18: and trying to rather our people because we do make
Speaker 18: an impact. We do make a difference on our team,
Speaker 18: and definitely when we're at two strikes, you know, we
Speaker 18: definitely got to help our picture out and rally them
Speaker 18: to get that dirt strike, you know. So I'm one
Speaker 18: hundred percent we have to do better, and it definitely
Speaker 18: we can't take it for granted. So I appreciate you
Speaker 18: taking my call at DV.
Speaker 2: Hey, thank you, Charlie. And you keep those spirits high,
Speaker 2: you keep waving that towel, you keep being the loudest
Speaker 2: guy in your section. Because I'm a big believer it's
Speaker 2: okay to stand up at times at a game when
Speaker 2: it's appropriate. Nobody wants to sit behind the guys standing
Speaker 2: up for all nine innings, but have some feel in situations.
Speaker 2: And the Dodgers needed the fans to try to rattle
Speaker 2: Mizowski and they just never did. Eight six six nine
Speaker 2: seven two five seventy is the phone number if you're
Speaker 2: at a concert or a sporting event, there are times
Speaker 2: that you can stand up for extended period of times.
Speaker 2: I have no issues with that. I don't love sitting
Speaker 2: behind a guy that is standing up the entire concert
Speaker 2: or the entire game, but there are moments in time
Speaker 2: that it's called for, and Dodger fans needed to do
Speaker 2: something to try to rattle and make things a little
Speaker 2: more uncomfortable for Jacob Mizerowski. Eight six six seven two
Speaker 2: five seventy is the phone number. Let's go out to
Speaker 2: Richard and Santa Clarita, Dodger fans. I know you'll show
Speaker 2: up and you'll be louder tomorrow and in the World Series.
Speaker 2: Don't be spoiled. Don't take it for granted. Richard, you're
Speaker 2: on Dodger Talk.
Speaker 3: Go ahead, Hi, Steve's going Steve.
Speaker 2: I'm not Scuba Steve. No no, no, no, no, no
Speaker 2: no no. You can't call in to hear your own
Speaker 2: voice and not know my name. Let's go out to
Speaker 2: Brian and Irvine. You're on Dodger Talk. Brian, go ahead,
Speaker 2: what you what do you got? Do you know who
Speaker 2: I am? Do you want me to stand up and
Speaker 2: describe who I am? Like Pat Murphy wants every media
Speaker 2: member to do. I could stand up. I'm David Vasse
Speaker 2: from willand Hills. I've been hosting this show for fourteen years. Brian, David,
Speaker 2: not Steve.
Speaker 6: What's up?
Speaker 8: DV?
Speaker 5: Badass? DV Man. I know exactly who you are, and
Speaker 5: I want to say I love blowouts, but man.
Speaker 11: Oh, Brian, you're watching.
Speaker 2: Start over. Brian, you were in cell hell. I'll give
Speaker 2: you one more chance.
Speaker 12: To hear me now, DV we can go ahead.
Speaker 5: Man, I love a good blowout, but I gotta say tonight,
Speaker 5: as a Dodger fan, this was such a good win,
Speaker 5: watching everybody contribute in so many different ways. And I
Speaker 5: watched the game actually in San Diego at an event,
Speaker 5: so I'm around a bunch of pissed off, no energy
Speaker 5: Padre fans were just miserable at their lives.
Speaker 7: It felt so good.
Speaker 5: But I want to say, man like, even as a
Speaker 5: Dodger fan, it's been really hard putting our faith in
Speaker 5: the bullpen, and tonight was such an incredible.
Speaker 2: It was incredible. Brian. Your phone call was almost incredible,
Speaker 2: but it fell short. Eight six six nine eighty seven
Speaker 2: two five seventy is the phone number Dodgers beat the
Speaker 2: Brewers three to one. They are on the cusp of
Speaker 2: becoming the eleventh team in baseball history to sweep a
Speaker 2: championship series. Ever since it expanded to a best of
Speaker 2: seven format back in nineteen eighty five, there have been
Speaker 2: ten sweeps for in the National League, six in the
Speaker 2: American League. The last team to sweep an NLCS was
Speaker 2: the eventual World champion Nationals in twenty nineteen, who swept
Speaker 2: the Cardinals. Let's head back downstairs to hear from one
Speaker 2: of the bullpen dogs. He was our pregame guest, Alex Vesia.
Speaker 2: He ended up being the winning pitcher.
Speaker 19: It's a good feeling to, you know, kid outs lockdown
Speaker 19: the back half of a game. Obviously Todai Glass now
Speaker 19: was great. You know, for myself, it was kind of
Speaker 19: just one pitch at a time. Obviously giving up the
Speaker 19: double wasn't was an ideal. Blake comes in, it continues,
Speaker 19: the battle band, it comes in awesome, and then you
Speaker 19: know Brookie comes in and you know, pumping one hundred.
Speaker 19: So it was a good day for the boys to.
Speaker 8: Start the season.
Speaker 20: You guys had a goal to go back to the
Speaker 20: World Series or now one win away of just achieving
Speaker 20: being back there.
Speaker 21: What does that say as kind of what is the
Speaker 21: feeling is right now and how special that is for
Speaker 21: you all?
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean I think I've said it before that too.
Speaker 19: To win a World Series and then have you know,
Speaker 19: front office, go go get some guys, it's you know,
Speaker 19: for for myself, it's super motivating.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 19: I remember, you know, working out in my my gym
Speaker 19: and like that was that was awesome. That was such
Speaker 19: a good feeling that like we can potentially go and
Speaker 19: do that again. Right now, we're here and you know,
Speaker 19: it's been a long season of ups and downs and
Speaker 19: and and whatnot, but you know, we believe in each other,
Speaker 19: and you know we have one more and you know
Speaker 19: we'll continue to play play in baseball.
Speaker 21: Excuus are eight and one in the playoffs. Now, did
Speaker 21: you see a run like this coming when October started?
Speaker 21: Given just that up and down regular season that you mentioned,
Speaker 21: Not necessarily.
Speaker 19: I think it's just you know, when the when the
Speaker 19: postseason rolls around, we all kind of lean on each
Speaker 19: other a little harder. You know, it's the one hundred
Speaker 19: and sixty two games is a long season. Things go
Speaker 19: our way, things, don't you know. But it is a
Speaker 19: breath of fresh air when October comes around.
Speaker 2: All right, there's Alex Vesia on Sports Net LA and
Speaker 2: I'll just say this, take it for what it's worth.
Speaker 2: Max Munsey was the pregame guest before Game two of
Speaker 2: the NLCS, and he hit a big home run and
Speaker 2: tonight a big defensive play in the second inning. And
Speaker 2: tonight Alex Vessia or today Alex Vesia was our pregame guest.
Speaker 2: Comes in in a big spot, gets the win in relief.
Speaker 2: Is there some pregame karma? Who wants in tomorrow? Eight six, six,
Speaker 2: nine eighty seven, two five seventy is the phone number.
Speaker 2: And speaking of pregame, it was great to see two
Speaker 2: of my childhood favorite Dodgers from my favorite childhood Dodger team,
Speaker 2: the nineteen eighty eight Dodgers. Steve Sachs, who obviously does
Speaker 2: a great job with Tim Kats in the morning during
Speaker 2: the postseason. He is a ball of energy and positivity.
Speaker 2: I love Steve Sacks and Mikes Oosha, one of my
Speaker 2: all time favorites as well, was on the field thrown
Speaker 2: out the first pitch, and I loved that After the
Speaker 2: first pitch was over, Shoho Tani went out of his
Speaker 2: way to come out of the dugout to pay respects
Speaker 2: to his first major league manager. And that was Mike's
Speaker 2: Soosha with the Angels. And that was a pretty cool scene.
Speaker 2: And it was great to see Steve and Mike's osha
Speaker 2: up here in the press box. Got a chance to
Speaker 2: talk to them. They were watching the first or the
Speaker 2: first couple of innings from right outside our broadcast booth.
Speaker 2: And I offered mikes Oshi my seat. I said, hey,
Speaker 2: you could sit in my seat and tell all your
Speaker 2: friends you sat in David Vasse's chair in Dodger Talk.
Speaker 2: He refused politely. I think eight six six nine eight
Speaker 2: seven two five seventy is the phone number. Dodgers beat
Speaker 2: the Brewers. Everybody's feeling great in La. The Dodgers are
Speaker 2: on their way back to the World Series. I'll just
Speaker 2: say that. Go ahead, Pat Murphy, use that for bulletin
Speaker 2: board material. I don't care. There's nothing you can do
Speaker 2: to stop this freight train, which is the twenty twenty
Speaker 2: five Dodgers and their pitching staff. Let's go out to
Speaker 2: San Diego. Felix, you're on Dodger Talk. How you doing, Felix?
Speaker 6: What's going on, David?
Speaker 17: Hey, man, Before I actually start, if you don't mind,
Speaker 17: I like to say thank you to you for everything
Speaker 17: you do and.
Speaker 6: The other thing to man, especially with me. I call
Speaker 6: in a lot.
Speaker 17: From down here. You guys keep me sane. Yeah, but
Speaker 17: I've talked to you about it in the past, about
Speaker 17: Trident specifically, and you've always gone to back for him,
Speaker 17: and we've we've gone back and forth.
Speaker 6: On there a couple of times.
Speaker 17: With that said, I'll tell you what, man, you keep
Speaker 17: saying that you know, as far as we need to
Speaker 17: or the people at the stadium need to need to
Speaker 17: take it up a notch, I'm gonna tell him every
Speaker 17: fellow Los ANGELESO everyone.
Speaker 6: And I hope you guys listen to me.
Speaker 17: Twenty fifteen, our manager was down here with the Madres
Speaker 17: as a first base coach. They didn't give him a shot.
Speaker 13: We did.
Speaker 6: Since then, the Madres.
Speaker 17: Have had eight coaches, eight managers, whatever you want to
Speaker 17: call them. That's that's their biddle. But what I'm getting
Speaker 17: at to you is our manager, whether you like him
Speaker 17: or not, I'm all for him. He's about to win
Speaker 17: his fourth ring. Vessia Bonda try in Sasaki bumping his chest.
Speaker 6: I'm all for that, man.
Speaker 17: And the last thing too, is you mentioned those names, David,
Speaker 17: you forgot three Sasaki. Everybody had a chance with him, Yoshi,
Speaker 17: everybody had a chance, has Im Kim. Everybody had a chance,
Speaker 17: whether they chose to come, whether we I think I
Speaker 17: heard that with Yoshi specifically, they were looking at him
Speaker 17: for three years before they even went to him. So
Speaker 17: we're blessed to be doctor Blue and we're going back. Man,
Speaker 17: I don't care what anybody says. And I'll tell you what, David,
Speaker 17: if you can bring in Otani to try to getting
Speaker 17: in an interview so he can crush it tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Hey, maybe Otani wants a pregame interview get his postseason
Speaker 2: turned around. Not a bad idea. I feel like, say,
Speaker 2: it's out there if Otani's agent, nez Blelo's listening right now,
Speaker 2: if Otani wants in for a pregame interview. It's worked
Speaker 2: for Muncie and Vesia, and of course that stretch of
Speaker 2: time for JD. Martinez with the dead fish handshake which
Speaker 2: turned around his thirty home run one hundred RBI season
Speaker 2: back in twenty twenty three. But I think Otani's gonna
Speaker 2: be okay. I'm a big believer in track record. That's
Speaker 2: why I believed in Blake Trining. I know he was
Speaker 2: pushed to the limits last year and I feel like
Speaker 2: we all needed to give him some grace for that.
Speaker 2: But similar to a lot of these Dodgers, they paced
Speaker 2: themselves for the right time, and not a lot of players,
Speaker 2: and not a lot of players on the same team
Speaker 2: can kind of flip that switch when they need to,
Speaker 2: but the Dodgers have And let's not forget this. This
Speaker 2: is something that is lost in all of this. The
Speaker 2: last two seasons, the Dodgers have started before every other team,
Speaker 2: starting their year in South Korea before the twenty four
Speaker 2: championship season, and then turning around after winning the World
Speaker 2: Series in October of last year, coming back and being
Speaker 2: the first team back to spring training to get ready
Speaker 2: again to start the season in a different country, this
Speaker 2: time Tokyo, Japan, and here they are again. They're going
Speaker 2: to be playing and one of the last two teams standing.
Speaker 2: There needs to be some sort of greater appreciation. And
Speaker 2: I'll say this, I'm a big believer in the Dodgers
Speaker 2: being able to win the World Series again. To me,
Speaker 2: with all that being considered in the expectations, I would
Speaker 2: say the Dodgers back to back champions would have to
Speaker 2: be considered one of the greatest teams of all time,
Speaker 2: not just Dodgers but major League history. Eight six six nine,
Speaker 2: eight seven, two five seventy is the phone number. Let's
Speaker 2: go out to Gonzalo. You're on Dodger Talk Live from
Speaker 2: Dodgers Stadium, Hig Gonzalo.
Speaker 6: Hey, how's it going, Dave?
Speaker 18: How are you doing tonight?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: Tremendous, Gonzalo. It's easy when you're watching the best show
Speaker 2: in baseball.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 18: I just wanted to ask, when do you think is
Speaker 18: the appoprium times to start the wave?
Speaker 2: Anytime? I'm a big fan of the wave, Gonzalo started
Speaker 2: anytime you.
Speaker 18: We were out in right field and they were trying
Speaker 18: to start it in the top of the inning and
Speaker 18: the bottom of the inning, and it seemed like if
Speaker 18: we could never really get the crowd going.
Speaker 2: So I would actually say the wave is more effective
Speaker 2: if you're trying to be strategic about it. I would
Speaker 2: say the wave would be the most effective when the
Speaker 2: opposing team is hitting, because that could be distracting to
Speaker 2: the opposing hitters. So I would say, if I had
Speaker 2: to lean one way or the other wave etiquette, I
Speaker 2: would say, when the other team is hitting.
Speaker 18: So you so one way on the fence. I agree,
Speaker 18: because they were trying to start it at the top
Speaker 18: of the inning and it looked like, I mean, at
Speaker 18: the bottom of any when we were up, and it
Speaker 18: looked like no one would say attention. Everyone just locked in.
Speaker 2: That was the weakest wave ever. I never saw Gonzalo
Speaker 2: try to start it again tomorrow. Thanks for the phone call.
Speaker 2: Eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy. I
Speaker 2: can I could solve a lot of problems, and there
Speaker 2: are a lot of problems I can't solve, but I
Speaker 2: can give you some tips on wave etiquette. So I'm
Speaker 2: leaning towards the opposing team hitting. So the top half
Speaker 2: of any inning. Eight six six nine eighty seven two
Speaker 2: five seventy is the phone number. We're gonna take a
Speaker 2: time out when we continue more of your phone calls.
Speaker 2: We'll head back downstairs to get more postgame reaction. But
Speaker 2: coming up next, we'll check in with Jose Mota, who
Speaker 2: was on the call on the Dodgers Spanish radio broadcast
Speaker 2: with Luis Cochito Cruz after the Dodgers beat the Brewers
Speaker 2: in Game three the NLCS three to one on a
Speaker 2: five to seventy LA Sports.
Speaker 5: On air at AM five seventy, online at AM five
Speaker 5: seventy LA sports dot com, and available by podcast on

Speaker 8: Bet sweet face head right center field into the cup.
Speaker 8: Botany scrolls home.

Speaker 4: Bookie Bets and the Dodgers out of the gates in Game.
Speaker 8: Three one to nothing and Bets's taking double right out
Speaker 8: of the batter's bucks.
Speaker 2: Bokie Betts with his nineteenth career postseason double, wearing a
Speaker 2: Dodger uniform that ties Justin Turner for the most postseason
Speaker 2: doubles and Dodger franchise history. Mookie Bets also play great
Speaker 2: shortstop tonight for the Dodgers to help them beat the

Speaker 5: It's time to go around the horn with Jose Mota.
Speaker 2: Jose Mota on the call for the Dodgers Spanish radio
Speaker 2: broadcast tonight with Luis Cochito Cruz. How big of a
Speaker 2: play was Max Munsey's great defensive play in the second
Speaker 2: inning to cut down Jake Bowers at the plate tonight, Jose.
Speaker 1: Well, David, it's a play that changes the uh some
Speaker 1: plush of the old game. Why because, as you heard
Speaker 1: Tellerglass to talk about, that is a team that you
Speaker 1: have to defend well against and that pretty much means
Speaker 1: two runs right there.
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 1: But the good thing is that when you're guarding a
Speaker 1: lot against the bunt, and I learned this long time ago,
Speaker 1: it actually makes you be a little bit more aware
Speaker 1: and to be quicker in decisions. So think about Monthly
Speaker 1: and where he was playing in the very first Eddy
Speaker 1: we come the line drive. Sure you now that play there?
Speaker 1: Take him to his left, but he spins and throws.
Speaker 1: I mean that was like, you know what, Adrian Beltri
Speaker 1: top of play right there, that was outstanding change a game.
Speaker 2: Man. That's side praise right there. When you say Adrian
Speaker 2: Beltray type, I mean that was one of the best
Speaker 2: third basemen ever. And Munsey is one of the more
Speaker 2: underrated defensive players out there.
Speaker 1: And let's let's I'm gonna make it very clear, I
Speaker 1: am not comparing Max Munsey to Adrian Beltray. I'm saying
Speaker 1: that is the type of game Beltray will play and
Speaker 1: a play he would make to change a game. So
Speaker 1: for Max Mounsey, and he'll tip your hat because I
Speaker 1: remember the guy's at the leg injury and the side
Speaker 1: injury and so many things that I think right now
Speaker 1: we're seeing the best out of you know, defensively because
Speaker 1: of the guy really cares.
Speaker 2: We know that without a doubt. And from the Brewers
Speaker 2: side of things, you know, miss Rowski was outstanding today.
Speaker 2: But it felt like those shadows, you know, hearing from
Speaker 2: former players that have actually played in these games at
Speaker 2: this stadium with those type of conditions, how much did
Speaker 2: that play into the middle innings of either team? Not
Speaker 2: really putting the ball.
Speaker 1: In play, Oh, dave a lot. Any former player can
Speaker 1: tell you that. Especially we have guys that throw hard
Speaker 1: and the pitch that is toughest to the fenders the fastball.
Speaker 1: So I've also seen guys get in trouble, guys with
Speaker 1: big arms, you know, good stature by spending the ball
Speaker 1: a lot. And think about this. All hitting does is
Speaker 1: timing and reaction, right, So if your reaction time is
Speaker 1: just slightly up because he can't see the ball, then
Speaker 1: go to your fastball. And that's why I say Glassen
Speaker 1: was so good, why miss Rosky was so good, because
Speaker 1: he was able to spend the ball quite well. But
Speaker 1: you gotta respect one of two, one o three. We
Speaker 1: saw some one o three today. But overall, I think
Speaker 1: the guys attacking them, attacking his own makes a big
Speaker 1: difference in what the shadows could do. Because at the
Speaker 1: same time, if you're not throwing strikes, so you walking guys,
Speaker 1: it takes one pish for you to make a mistake
Speaker 1: and go out there and you know, hurt you. But
Speaker 1: it happened to glass now last time we saw him
Speaker 1: on the mound. Because the phillies is a big difference.
Speaker 6: The Phillies.
Speaker 1: Guys told me that, and certainly it was good to
Speaker 1: see guys executing the way that he did and perhaps
Speaker 1: not let the shadows get in the way of what
Speaker 1: you have to do with the catcher. Just throw the
Speaker 1: mitt and laser in and get the job done.
Speaker 2: Jose, We've seen Mookie Betts get better and better from
Speaker 2: the start of spring training to where he's at right
Speaker 2: now defensively at shortstop. But to make that plane the
Speaker 2: ninth inning on this stage, that was Jeter esque, and
Speaker 2: it feels like now people are finally buying into the
Speaker 2: fact that this guy is truly a shortstop.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean he's on his way to winning
Speaker 1: a Gold Glove. Key gets to the base who's going
Speaker 1: to catch a baseball? But I think there's no doubt.
Speaker 1: As the years progress, Dave his conference level and getting
Speaker 1: to Baseball's positioning has been much better. And even his
Speaker 1: throwing consider how many throws Freddie Freeman saved him from
Speaker 1: that would be errors. But now he's not lobbing the
Speaker 1: ball as much. He's throwing the ball with conviction. We
Speaker 1: talked about condition. When you pitch same thing as an
Speaker 1: infula as an alfielder, it all applies. His footwork is
Speaker 1: much better, and to be watching Mooki best playing his
Speaker 1: best defense at this stage means a whole lot about
Speaker 1: a guy that cares and understands what it means to
Speaker 1: the fan against teams in the postseason, understanding positioning strengths
Speaker 1: and weaknesses. And watch how many times Muki does not
Speaker 1: have to reach or die. He doesn't need to get
Speaker 1: dirty because he's so used to it as an altfielder
Speaker 1: anticipating some swings and reading swings that in the infield.
Speaker 1: He's taking that instinct where you have less time and
Speaker 1: has made himself better by known hitters and understanding also
Speaker 1: who's on the mount and what is expected of him
Speaker 1: on certain positions in certain areas of the field.
Speaker 2: When you look at the bullpen tonight, Jose Yes, Vessia
Speaker 2: and trying In and Bonda, we're outstanding. But Roki Sasaki,
Speaker 2: who had his first little speed bump of the postseason,
Speaker 2: bounce back really nicely tonight. Did you feel like he
Speaker 2: looked more like himself because the velocity was back up
Speaker 2: to ninety nine one hundred miles an hour, and that
Speaker 2: seems to be very important to him.
Speaker 1: It is, Dave, you know the separation was important to
Speaker 1: him if he was rocky. When he pitches, he is
Speaker 1: looking to see velocity. He wants separation, but he wants
Speaker 1: to see triple digits. I mean, he's proud of that,
Speaker 1: and certainly he knows that hitters are aware of that.
Speaker 1: What I like the most though, is that if he
Speaker 1: needs to double up on a splitter, he'll do it.
Speaker 1: But you know that the fascial was coming, and it's
Speaker 1: still hard to time it because his fascia has been
Speaker 1: sole in line with location velocity movement. His four seamert
Speaker 1: naturally moves and it's tough to gauge where it's gonna go.
Speaker 1: And then from the younger that he throws from the
Speaker 1: you know, the long legs and the big stride is
Speaker 1: to tough to gauge, but to get him back on
Speaker 1: his feet where he belongs and certainty he will success
Speaker 1: in attacking the zone, not shine a way and understanding
Speaker 1: more about the bruise approach, I think was the biggest
Speaker 1: difference here tonight.
Speaker 2: Is there anything to make us believe that the Dodgers
Speaker 2: won't close this series out tomorrow?
Speaker 1: I think you gotta believe that they will only because
Speaker 1: for show, heal tany on the mound. It's not a
Speaker 1: three nothing lead right now. He's thinking my outing, what
Speaker 1: does my team need from me?
Speaker 6: And what do I need to do?
Speaker 1: So I think the mentality is throughout the clubhouse and
Speaker 1: tongue into a lot of guys all throughout the postseason.
Speaker 1: Davis wanted to wear today, what is it that we
Speaker 1: need to do to finish off our business to play better?
Speaker 1: If it's bouncing back from a loss, perhaps what is
Speaker 1: it that we need to do a little bit better?
Speaker 1: So I think the mentality is going to be the
Speaker 1: same tomorrow, not even thinking of three nothing or whatever.
Speaker 1: It's just thinking about take care of your own business
Speaker 1: and for showhy it's about making sure that also upstage
Speaker 1: by those guys on the mound, and he wants to
Speaker 1: be just as good as they have a model Snell
Speaker 1: and Glass down here tonight. So he's up to the challenge.
Speaker 1: I believe in he'll have a very good outing and
Speaker 1: there's no limits.
Speaker 2: The Dodgers should slam the door on the Brewers tomorrow
Speaker 2: and take that cash money out to the World Series. Jose,
Speaker 2: thanks a lot for checking in. We'll talk to you
Speaker 2: tomorrow after I should be a little bit more smellier
Speaker 2: of champagne when we do this.
Speaker 6: That'd be great.
Speaker 1: I will never call you Steve Davis.
Speaker 2: Okay, I appreciate that, Hosi. I would never call you, Joe.
Speaker 1: Thank you, David.
Speaker 2: There he goes Jose Mota, part of the Dodgers Spanish
Speaker 2: radio broadcast. Eight six six nine eight seven two five
Speaker 2: seventy is the phone number. Dodgers beat the Brewers three
Speaker 2: to one. They beat the Brewers best. Pat Murphy shot
Speaker 2: his best shot, having Jacob Mazerowski pitching tonight's game. He
Speaker 2: still loses and now has to turn to Jose Cantana
Speaker 2: and a bunch of relievers that the Dodgers already have
Speaker 2: gotten a pretty good look at already in this series.
Speaker 2: Trevor McGill abner your uibay, they saw him again today,
Speaker 2: Jerry Kanig. Uh, there's a few guys the Dodgers, Chad Patrick.
Speaker 2: They've seen their guys, they've seen their best, and they
Speaker 2: feel very comfortable going into Game four of the NLCS
Speaker 2: eight six six seven two five seventy. Let's go back
Speaker 2: out to the phones. David in Fontana, you're on Dodger Talk.
Speaker 2: How you doing, David?
Speaker 17: Pretty good day.
Speaker 5: How you doing.
Speaker 3: First of all, a great first name, man, great first.
Speaker 2: Name, that's why you're on the show. You were from
Speaker 2: Fontana there, but because your name's David, I put.
Speaker 15: You on.
Speaker 3: Good want I just want to talk about Mookie's play man,
Speaker 3: like you said, top of the ninth and be in
Speaker 3: a big stays NLCS right now, and to come up
Speaker 3: with that play man, It's not every day you see
Speaker 3: a now field their go to shortstop and make plays like.
Speaker 18: That as well.
Speaker 3: It's I think one in a million man that some outfield,
Speaker 3: I mean, like Mookie can just go from outfield to
Speaker 3: infield make that play. And just I mean, I think
Speaker 3: give them the gold already, give them the gold glove,
Speaker 3: and give them another World series read and give the
Speaker 3: Dodgers another World series ring man. Like I'm telling you,
Speaker 3: Dodgers are going to go all the way to the
Speaker 3: World Series again. And it's it's gonna be amazing. Tomorrow's
Speaker 3: going to be amazing with show time out there on
Speaker 3: the mound. It's gonna be final fantastic job for him tomorrow.
Speaker 3: So let's, like you said, pop that champagne and let's
Speaker 3: celebrate tomorrow, all.
Speaker 2: Right, David in Fontana, thank you for the phone call,
Speaker 2: and consider this another subplot to the World Series, and
Speaker 2: really the dominance of the Dodgers the last two years
Speaker 2: is the fact that last year's right fielder in the
Speaker 2: World Series, Mookie Betts, will be starting at shortstop in
Speaker 2: this year's World Series. And off the top of my head,
Speaker 2: I can't think of another player that won six goal
Speaker 2: gloves in right field, maybe even just one goal glove
Speaker 2: in the outfield, and then the very next year goes
Speaker 2: out and wins a Gold Glove at a big premium
Speaker 2: position like shortstop on the infield. I mean, that's just
Speaker 2: a testament to how great of an athlete Mookie Bets is.
Speaker 2: We always talk about, you know, how great of a
Speaker 2: bowler he is, how great of a pickle ball player
Speaker 2: he is. He's just been blessed with great athleticism. And
Speaker 2: he's not a big guy, which is also you know,
Speaker 2: a testament to him as well, because you hear his
Speaker 2: mom tell the stories about how she would coach the
Speaker 2: little league teams because everybody thought he was too small.
Speaker 2: I'm sure when he was drafted people didn't believe in
Speaker 2: him because of his size, but here he is now
Speaker 2: one of the greatest players of his generation, well on
Speaker 2: his way to Baseball's Hall of Fame. And it's just
Speaker 2: something that you can't take for granted. It really isn't.
Speaker 20: I know.
Speaker 2: We all marvel at Otani, and rightfully so at what
Speaker 2: he can do being a dominant pitcher and being a
Speaker 2: great hitter. But how about Mookie Betts. How many people
Speaker 2: could do what Mookie Betts has done the last two years,
Speaker 2: play Gold Glove right field and be a great hitter.
Speaker 2: I mean, he was on his way to the MVP
Speaker 2: last year before he got hit by a pitch which
Speaker 2: broke his wrist, and then come back this year and
Speaker 2: be as great of a shortstop as he has been.
Speaker 2: And I wasn't joking. The first guy we'll see that
Speaker 2: comes out here tomorrow afternoon is Mookie Betts. And we
Speaker 2: just found it thanks to our guy Dwayne McDonald, who
Speaker 2: finds everything if he doesn't have it at the top
Speaker 2: of his head. Darren Erstad was the only other outfielder
Speaker 2: that moved to the infield to win a Gold Glove.
Speaker 2: Erstad won the Gold Glove for Mike'sosha with the Angels
Speaker 2: in two thousand and two thousand and two and then
Speaker 2: was moved to first base in two two thousand and
Speaker 2: four and won't won the Gold Glove there. Darren Erstadt
Speaker 2: the only other outfielder that won multiple goal gloves to
Speaker 2: move to the infield first base not shortstop, much different,
Speaker 2: and won the Gold Glove there. And he was a
Speaker 2: punter at Nebraska. Mookie never punted. Eight sixty six nine
Speaker 2: eight seven two five seventy is the phone number. Let's
Speaker 2: go out to Bellflower. Michael. You're on Dodger Talk Live
Speaker 2: from Dodger Stadium. Hi, Michael, Hey, Dave.
Speaker 11: Okay, I just wanted to thank you for going through
Speaker 11: the lineup and breaking down where a lot of these
Speaker 11: players have come from. I think people forget the Dodgers.
Speaker 11: They do it better than everybody else. It's this whole thing,
Speaker 11: this run here. I don't know if you want to
Speaker 11: call it a run or not, but this kind of
Speaker 11: started with Ned Koletti flipping Milton Bradley for a young
Speaker 11: Andre Ethier, and then fast forward you figure a guy
Speaker 11: like Munsey in the minor leagues in twenty and seventeen
Speaker 11: when the Dodgers made it for the World Series. He
Speaker 11: comes out in eighteen boom burst on the scene, and
Speaker 11: then he's an All Star first baseman eight hundred ops.
Speaker 11: Guess what, we just find a guy. You got to
Speaker 11: go play somewhere else. Okay, I'll go play third. And
Speaker 11: to see the place he's making in this play in
Speaker 11: these playoffs is remarkable. A guy like that just coming
Speaker 11: through consistently, NonStop. People.
Speaker 2: Hey, Michael, remember when Max Muntsey was playing second base?
Speaker 2: Remember Max Munsey the second baseman. So he's been part
Speaker 2: of World Series teams where he's played second base, first base,
Speaker 2: DH and now third base. I think we all forgot
Speaker 2: Munsey played second for a full season.
Speaker 11: The Dodgers go out and sign Freddy Freeman, and hey,
Speaker 11: guess what, You're a man without a home because you
Speaker 11: got injured. Guess what, go play third?
Speaker 6: Okay, what do I do?
Speaker 11: I'll put up another seedon.
Speaker 6: That's great.
Speaker 11: People forget about that. And I just want to say,
Speaker 11: I think the Dodgers, like you said, they're probably one
Speaker 11: hundred percent going to go to the World Series. They're
Speaker 11: three and oh I know Dave Robertson the boys out
Speaker 11: in Boston were able to flip a three to zero too.
Speaker 11: A World Series bunch of ticket. But he's hammenagers and
Speaker 11: Milwaukee are not Dodgers going to the World Series.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I believe it's over tomorrow. Michael, thank you for
Speaker 2: the phone call and going back to Max Munsey. We
Speaker 2: would not have gotten that type of call about Max
Speaker 2: Mounsey in April or May or June. Max Monsey is
Speaker 2: the epitome of not knowing what you have until it's gone.
Speaker 2: And when he was hurt, the Dodger offense was not
Speaker 2: hitting on all cylinders. Key k a Hernandez did and
Speaker 2: Miguel Rojas did a great job filling in at third base,
Speaker 2: but this lineup sorely missed Max Munsey. And now all
Speaker 2: of a sudden, it feels like everybody is starting to
Speaker 2: appreciate Max Munsey more than ever. And I'm gonna challenge
Speaker 2: Colin Yee go back and find some of those calls
Speaker 2: from the middle the summer where everybody who's thinking the
Speaker 2: sky was falling Mounsey stinks ta Oscar Hernandez needs to
Speaker 2: be benched or moved to left field. How about the
Speaker 2: first couple of weeks of the season, everybody wanted Andy
Speaker 2: pa has sent down. Now look at Andy pah haz
Speaker 2: you just got to understand that the Dodgers always had
Speaker 2: a bigger picture in mind, and you're seeing it play
Speaker 2: out now. This is the perfect storm, complete perfect storm.
Speaker 2: That all four of these starting pitchers are healthy and
Speaker 2: pitching their best at the same time. That's what the
Speaker 2: Dodgers had hoped for. But now it's unfolding. On the field.
Speaker 2: Snell is on another level. He's second half Snell like
Speaker 2: he was the last two years. He went on a
Speaker 2: historic ten start run to end his season last year.
Speaker 2: And oh, by the way, I guess his teammates don't
Speaker 2: hate him the way the San Francisco media, in fact,
Speaker 2: one guy try to portray. You got sho hey Otani,
Speaker 2: who the Dodgers played perfectly to get him back to
Speaker 2: pitching at his best and healthy. You got Tyler Glass
Speaker 2: now who's filling in nicely as the fourth starter, who
Speaker 2: the Dodgers had go slow with his injury, and he's
Speaker 2: been awesome since the second half of the year. And
Speaker 2: he got Yamamoto, who made thirty starts this year. It's
Speaker 2: just a perfect storm in the offense playing its best
Speaker 2: at the right time for a second straight year. A
Speaker 2: perfect storm. And Jack Harris of the La Times actually
Speaker 2: said this could you imagine if the Dodger bullpen was
Speaker 2: pitching the way they thought it would pitch when they
Speaker 2: signed guys like Tanner Scott and Kirby Yates and didn't
Speaker 2: have the injuries that they have had to their bullpen.
Speaker 2: I mean, the Dodgers are probably only going to lose
Speaker 2: one more game in my opinion, before they win the
Speaker 2: World Series. There is a chance. I mean, how much
Speaker 2: better could it have been. I maybe just a better
Speaker 2: regular season record. I don't know how much better it
Speaker 2: could be in the postseason. With them being eight to one,
Speaker 2: I don't see them losing more than one game in
Speaker 2: the World Series to either the Blue Jays or the Mariners.
Speaker 2: And the Blue Jays are going to even up this
Speaker 2: series at two games apiece. They're up six to two
Speaker 2: in Seattle in the bottom of the seventh inning. So
Speaker 2: if the Dodgers could wrap up the NLCS tomorrow, all
Speaker 2: of a sudden, now their pitching's going to be on
Speaker 2: extra rest again to begin the World Series like it
Speaker 2: was to begin the NLCS. Sho hey Otani when he
Speaker 2: takes the mound tomorrow is going to be on eleven
Speaker 2: days rest. That's similar to the schedule the Dodgers laid
Speaker 2: out for him during the regular season. Eight six six nine,
Speaker 2: eight seven two five seven is the phone number. Let's
Speaker 2: go out to Yvonne. Yvonne, you're on Dodger Talk. How
Speaker 2: you doing.
Speaker 6: Good? How you doing?
Speaker 20: David?
Speaker 2: Did I get your name right?
Speaker 5: Is it?
Speaker 20: I know?
Speaker 6: I go by Ivan.
Speaker 7: There's actually Ivan and Leo right now, we're still stuck
Speaker 7: in traffic coming out Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 2: Ivan and Leo. That's like an ice cream and right there.
Speaker 6: Hopefully maybe I'll make him millionaires.
Speaker 7: But David, you know, I listened to you a lot,
Speaker 7: and my son is five, so he was at the
Speaker 7: game today, and I just want to show some appreciation
Speaker 7: for the fans that actually showed up today. I know
Speaker 7: you got your criticisms that we didn't bring it, you know,
Speaker 7: like some of the other places.
Speaker 6: But it was a three pm game. I have to
Speaker 6: take it hot. It was I picked up my son
Speaker 6: early from school, and you know we showed up. I mean,
Speaker 6: you know, we did our best and it was hot.
Speaker 6: You know, we were in reserve forty, you know, right
Speaker 6: right Bacon.
Speaker 7: The sun and my son I got I got receipts
Speaker 7: of him cheering throughout the whole game, you know, And
Speaker 7: it's just show some appreciation to the fans that actually
Speaker 7: showed up at three pm on a Thursday game.
Speaker 2: I do appreciate that it was a full house, but Ivan,
Speaker 2: you got here, so why not contribute to the atmosphere
Speaker 2: of the stadium. If you made the effort to come
Speaker 2: to the game, be part of it. Be the tenth man.
Speaker 2: That's all I'm asking for.
Speaker 6: No, no, no, absolutely, I'm just saying, you know, that's
Speaker 6: a generalization of all the fans. Whereas we were contributing,
Speaker 6: it was pretty quiet.
Speaker 2: It was pretty quiet today, Ivan, Even the Brewers people
Speaker 2: were saying, what's going on here? This is the quietest
Speaker 2: we have heard Dodger Stadium in a playoff game. I'm
Speaker 2: just letting you know, after all these playoffs series, I
Speaker 2: just don't want there to be complacency setting in. And
Speaker 2: I completely understand the game time for today was unfair
Speaker 2: to LA fans. Thankfully tomorrow will be five point thirty.
Speaker 2: But I agree with you. Unfair to West Coast fans
Speaker 2: to schedule a game midweek at three o'clock. But it
Speaker 2: was a packed house.
Speaker 7: Yes, it was a packed house. That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 7: You know, it's just appreciation to all the fans showed up.
Speaker 7: And lastly, I want to shout out to my boy,
Speaker 7: Max Munsey. Anybody that knows me, because I've been forward
Speaker 7: to Max.
Speaker 6: Montsy is my boy.
Speaker 7: You know, I was the longest World Series game ever played.
Speaker 7: You know, if you were there, you remember Max Mussey
Speaker 7: hit the walk off against the Boston Red Sauce. Unfortunately
Speaker 7: we lost that best series, but you know, the best
Speaker 7: baseball game I ever been to, and I'm trying.
Speaker 6: To relive that with my son every time I go
Speaker 6: to the Dodgers game.
Speaker 2: All right, Ivan, I love that. I love that you
Speaker 2: brought your son to a playoff game. That's a memory
Speaker 2: maker right there. And yeah, that was Game four the
Speaker 2: twenty eighteen World Series. Monsey hit the walk off home
Speaker 2: run off of Nathan Valdi. I do not wish another
Speaker 2: eighteen inning game on you, or me or anybody else.
Speaker 2: Let's go out to Ronnie, who was at Dodgers Stadium. Ronnie,
Speaker 2: were you complacent today or do you feel like I've
Speaker 2: been too harsh? Ronnie? Oh, Ronnie, there you go? All right?
Speaker 2: Before we close things out, I want to hear from
Speaker 2: Tommy Edmund. He came up with the big hit against
Speaker 2: Jason Mizerowski in the sixth inning. Let's hear from Edmund
Speaker 2: on sports at LA.
Speaker 20: Yeah, he's good. You know, his his stuff is electric.
Speaker 20: He had good command of everything today. Not the easiest
Speaker 20: day to see either, but you know, we're just doing
Speaker 20: our best to battle up there and we're just fortunately
Speaker 20: we scraped that run across.
Speaker 21: All adjustments were you looking to make there, because it
Speaker 21: seem like with each at bat you were able to
Speaker 21: take some more information to find different ways to.
Speaker 20: Get to him.
Speaker 19: Yeah.
Speaker 20: You know, that was the first time I'd faced him,
Speaker 20: so just you know, knowing how his pitches move. You know,
Speaker 20: it's a very unique pitture. He's got a lot of extensions,
Speaker 20: so it seems like he's releasing it right on top
Speaker 20: of you. So I think just getting some familiarity with
Speaker 20: with his pitch types and everything and how how you
Speaker 20: need to attack him. But you know, he's I mean
Speaker 20: really good stuff and really picture starting to.
Speaker 7: Go more to the secondary stuff that second time.
Speaker 6: Through the order, and that what's allowed to just for
Speaker 6: stay back on that slider for the base.
Speaker 20: Yeah, you know, I mean I'm not really looking for that.
Speaker 20: If there was one hundred and two miles an hour,
Speaker 20: so you got to be ready for the fastball. And
Speaker 20: I think the swing that I took, I just was
Speaker 20: able to kind of stay through it and you know,
Speaker 20: get it out to center field. But you know, you
Speaker 20: can't look for ospit against a guy like that, and
Speaker 20: Revens picked.
Speaker 19: Off throw and he seemed like you were barely off
Speaker 19: the bag.
Speaker 16: Weren't surprised at already?
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know I was.
Speaker 20: I was really surprised, and you know, I'm glad it
Speaker 20: happened though, to give us that insurance.
Speaker 5: Run at the place where you would run there, or
Speaker 5: it's your ankle, I got the place where you would
Speaker 5: run there in the right spot or.
Speaker 20: Was it just kind of obviously it's situational. But you know,
Speaker 20: it's feeling really good right now, and you know, definitely
Speaker 20: getting closer to one hundred percent, so you know, hopefully
Speaker 20: I can start to be more of a threat out
Speaker 20: there on the basis feeling for.
Speaker 10: This team being one game away from making it back
Speaker 10: to a second Great World Series.
Speaker 20: Yeah, we're really excited. You know, it's it's been a
Speaker 20: bit of a trying year. We didn't play the best
Speaker 20: during the season, but you know we're getting hot at
Speaker 20: the right time, and you know, just one went away
Speaker 20: and hoping we can finish it off tomorrow.
Speaker 2: All right, there's Tommy Edmond on sports net LA. He
Speaker 2: played a big part in the Dodgers scoring two runs
Speaker 2: in the sixth inning. He knocked Jacob Mizarowski out of
Speaker 2: the game after a go ahead base hit to center
Speaker 2: field in the sixth inning, and then Abner Uiba, thinking
Speaker 2: Tommy Edmund was gonna run with two outs and Max
Speaker 2: Munsey at the plate, Freddie Freeman at third base unwisely
Speaker 2: threw over there and threw the ball poorly, and Freeman
Speaker 2: was able to score the second run on that bad
Speaker 2: pickoff throw by Abner Uibe, and the Dodgers go on
Speaker 2: to beat the Brewers today three to one. Now, coming
Speaker 2: up tomorrow, Game four with the Dodgers on the verge
Speaker 2: of sweeping the Brewers and going onto the World Series
Speaker 2: for his second straight year as defending champions, show hey
Speaker 2: Otani will be on the mound on eleven days rest.
Speaker 2: The last time he started a game was Game one
Speaker 2: of the NLDS, going up against left Jose Kantana, who
Speaker 2: the Dodgers have seen three different times in postseasons. This
Speaker 2: will be the fourth start Katana has made against the
Speaker 2: Dodgers in his postseason career. Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck
Speaker 2: begins at four point thirty tomorrow with first pitch from
Speaker 2: Dodgers Stadium at five thirty eight with Rick Monday and
