It's not fair are making 0:00:18.160 --> 0:00:19.400 plans again. 0:00:19.480 --> 0:00:24.160 It's a singular focus on controlling what they can control. 0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:28.080 Now your pregame host of the World champion LA Dodgers, 0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:31.720 Tam Cats Well, Hi there everybody. 0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:35.559 And welcome two Bo Rongo Casino Dodgers on dech on 0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:40.680 this hot Monday afternoon, July the twentieth.

The Dodgers continue their East Coast 0:00:56.240 --> 0:00:59.520 road trip with a three game series in Philadelphia against 0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:03.120 Bryce Harper and the Phillies. Imit Sheen on the mount 0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:06.000 of the series opener, first pitch from Citizens Bank Park 0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:08.759 is coming up at four to ten. Between then and now, 0:01:08.800 --> 0:01:11.240 We got a lot to get to here on Moronggo Casino. 0:01:11.319 --> 0:01:13.600 Dodgers on deck, you're gonna hear from the Dodger manager, 0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:16.199 Dave Roberts. We'll get you the very latest on show. 0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:19.640 Hey Otani, we'll preview this pitching matchup, which is a 0:01:19.640 --> 0:01:23.240 good one. Christopher Sanchez, the All Star starter in the 0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:26.399 National League going for the Phillies. Imag Sheen looking to 0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:28.800 put back to back starts for the Dodgers. Up on 0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:31.400 this board, we got your Dodgers magical moment. We'll hear 0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:34.080 from Charlie Steiner coming up in about thirty minutes. David 0:01:34.120 --> 0:01:37.000 Vassa joins us throughout the hour, of course, and in 0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:39.440 just a few minutes we check in with Steven Nelson 0:01:39.480 --> 0:01:42.679 and Rick Monday out at the Galloping of Ford Broadcast booth. 0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:42.880 Well. 0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:46.160 Last night in the Bronx, it was a dueling bullpen 0:01:46.360 --> 0:01:49.560 game between the Dodgers and the Yankees. Will Klein was 0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:52.000 the opener as the Dodgers earlier in the day when 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:55.800 the day portion of the day night doubleheader behind Yoshinobu Yamamoto. 0:01:55.880 --> 0:01:58.600 The night portion was a bullpen game, and Will Klein 0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:01.000 got into trouble in the first up an RBI single 0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:03.680 the former Dodger Cody Bellinger, and just like that, the 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:07.520 Yankees had won nothing lead. The Dodgers offense, meanwhile, couldn't 0:02:07.520 --> 0:02:10.920 get anything going against the Yankees opener Ryan Yarborough, the 0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:13.640 former Dodger. They had runners on base in the third, 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:16.480 button couldn't score. In the fifth, Jack Dryer on the mount. 0:02:16.480 --> 0:02:19.440 He proceeded to give him three straight singles to load 0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:22.799 the bases with Yankees Dave Roberts had seen it off. 0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:25.320 He went to brock Stewart, hoping to get out of 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:28.800 the Indian unscathed. He struck out Domingos, got Chisholm to 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:32.080 pop out to third, so the bases were still loaded. 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:32.960 Two down. 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:35.079 Facing Anthony Volpe. 0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:40.160 Bases loaded for him again the payoff from Stewart. 0:02:40.120 --> 0:02:41.959 He struck him out. 0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:47.639 Brock Stewart inherits the bases loaded and he leaves them loaded. 0:02:49.880 --> 0:02:52.200 He reached into the head bowling what did he find? 0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:54.880 He found three big outs that he had to have. 0:02:55.160 --> 0:02:56.760 What a job out of the bullpen? 0:02:57.360 --> 0:03:00.480 What a job by brock Stewart comes in, shuts the 0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:03.560 door on the Yankees in the fifth, keeps him from scoring, 0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:06.680 keeps it at a one nothing game. The game remained 0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:09.600 that way until the seventh, as Alex Vessi then struck 0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:12.120 out the side, so they went to the eighth. Dave 0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:15.400 Roberts went to his bench looking for some spark offensively 0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:16.600 from Tommy Edmond. 0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:17.840 The old one. 0:03:18.320 --> 0:03:20.760 Edmund swings and lit one high in the year to 0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:22.600 deep right field, carrying back. 0:03:22.800 --> 0:03:25.480 This one is gone. 0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:29.760 Tommy Edmund with a pinchhit home run, and we are 0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:39.120 tied in the eighth. 0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:41.880 Just as you were saying, he came on the other 0:03:42.000 --> 0:03:45.000 night and he got it going and he ties it. 0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:48.600 Pen shit hole run from Tommy Tanks last night, who 0:03:48.680 --> 0:03:50.840 hits a bomb off of Fernando Cruz that tied the 0:03:50.840 --> 0:03:53.240 game at won and gave the Dodgers some new life 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:56.360 against the Yankees. Two batters later, Max months he walked 0:03:56.400 --> 0:03:58.960 and Dalton Rushing walked. All right, Dodgers had a little 0:03:59.000 --> 0:04:02.000 something going on first and second, one out, the lineup 0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:05.240 flipped over for show Hey Otani. Yankees brought in their closer, 0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:07.440 David Bednard to try to keep the game at one, 0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:11.240 and he did struck out O'tani. Andy pat Has popped 0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:14.640 out a second that ended the Dodgers rally into the inniing. 0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:17.479 The Dodgers and Yankees remained tight at one in the 0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:19.559 bottom of the inning, and Evan Phillips on in relief 0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:22.680 after striking out Jason Divegez, Phillips left a fastball over 0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:24.520 the plate for Jazz Chishom, who hit it out to 0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:27.920 less thaner Field, a solo home run. Yankees retook the 0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:30.000 lead up two to one, and they'd go on and 0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:33.360 win by that same final score. Dodgers dropped the finale 0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:36.480 in the Bronx last night, but they still win this series, 0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:39.360 taking two or three from the Yankees. The road trip 0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:42.560 now continues to Philadelphia after the team bust there last 0:04:42.640 --> 0:04:45.240 night for the start of a three game series against 0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:47.360 the Fight and Phils. Image Sheen on the mount in 0:04:47.400 --> 0:04:50.000 the series opener. First pitch from Citizens Bank Park, coming 0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:52.080 up at four to ten and with more let's head 0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:55.039 out to the galloping four broadcast booth as we say hello, 0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:57.599 Stephen Nelson and Rick Monday, guys. 0:04:58.000 --> 0:04:59.600 Great to be back with you, Tim and great to 0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:02.480 be back at the Bank the Dodgers in Phillies. This 0:05:02.520 --> 0:05:07.160 is a Battle of National League Titans postseason rematch of 0:05:07.320 --> 0:05:11.120 last year. In the potential postseason preview for this year. 0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:13.320 Mod The Dodgers would have loved to have swept the Yankees, 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:16.520 but they came up a run short in the series finale, 0:05:16.560 --> 0:05:18.359 still taking two out of three in the Bronx and 0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:21.200 now three more here in Philadelphia. 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:21.960 What do you expect them? 0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:24.840 Well, I think, first of all, the Phillies are trying 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:26.440 to make a move. They are only three games out 0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:29.279 of first place, trailing the Atlanta Braves in the Nation 0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:32.200 League Eastern Division. And while they've split each of the 0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:35.320 last ten games, they feel very good about themselves, and 0:05:35.440 --> 0:05:38.560 especially at home because you know, since Don Manningly took 0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:42.279 over the helm, Rob Thompson was fired on you know, April. 0:05:42.960 --> 0:05:46.640 Since that time, at home, the Phillies have the fourth 0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:49.080 best record in Major League Baseball. They've done twenty one 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:52.599 and thirteen since Manningly has taken over, and that's just 0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:55.800 the home portion. Overall, they played very good baseball, and 0:05:55.839 --> 0:05:59.200 I think for the Dodgers, quite frankly, they didn't play 0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:02.240 particularly well in the In the second game of the 0:06:02.279 --> 0:06:05.640 double hitter last night, they had some scoring opportunities, not many, 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:07.720 but they had a couple of them. But I think 0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:10.680 that they made a statement to themselves. They played very 0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:14.520 good baseball in those three games overall against the Yankees. 0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:17.120 And still not yet rolling, especially in the offense. 0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:19.200 They have too many guys the Dodgers do, who are 0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:23.640 hitting far below their standards and their talent level. And 0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:26.240 that's something that Phillies can empathize with. So these are 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:28.560 two Titans, as they described him. That's what they're in 0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:31.680 the National League. They're two talented offenses and both of 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:33.320 them are trying to find that talent. 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:35.960 Yeah, there's no question about it, Steven. I agree one 0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:37.880 hundred percent on that end of it. And if we 0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:40.320 look at Mookiy Benz, he's dropped down in that lineup. 0:06:41.040 --> 0:06:43.359 You know, Dave Roberts is looking at this lineup itself, 0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:45.800 So Bens is going to move down to the five spot. 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:48.560 But if we look at Mooky Bentz, the last eleven games, 0:06:48.560 --> 0:06:51.520 he's hit a one to five is old. He's not 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:54.160 really put the ball into play. The Oscar Hernandez the 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:57.800 last fifteen games is hit one eighteen. He gets dropped 0:06:57.800 --> 0:07:00.599 down to the number seventh spot. Alex call will be 0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:03.719 in the lineup against the left hander Sanchez tonight. Kaul 0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:07.560 will be in in right field and Miguel Rojas is 0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:09.640 going to be at second base in over the third 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:13.000 Tommy Edmund. And Edmund has really added a lot to 0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:16.520 this lineup the last eight games. He's had hits in 0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:18.600 each of those, last hitting at three to seventy in 0:07:18.680 --> 0:07:21.680 that point. So Edmund, the switch hitter, will be playing 0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:23.400 at third base against the lefty tonight. 0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:26.280 We love watching Tommy Evan play baseball, and he's elevated 0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:28.360 at the three hole. Mod This is my favorite note 0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:31.080 about Tommy Edman. Already this year, only twenty five games, 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:34.760 the Dodgers have started him now after tonight in seven 0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:39.400 different spots in the order one, two, five, six, seven, nine, 0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:41.680 and now in this series opener against Sanchez in the 0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:44.320 Phillies in the three hole. We'll talk more about this 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:47.440 starting pitching matchup Sanchez against Emma Chien for the Dodgers, 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:48.560 and we'll get a key from Moe in. 0:07:48.560 --> 0:07:50.680 A little bit. Until then, Tim, we've sent it back 0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:50.880 to you. 0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:52.680 All right, Thank you, Nelly, As we're counting down to 0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:56.480 first pitch, Dodger fans, on this Monday afternoon, your game 0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:59.680 day meal on Shakey's Peteza Parlor.

The East Coast roadshup continues 0:08:52.360 --> 0:08:55.720 Immache and Christopher Sanchez. The pitching matchup. First pitch from 0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:57.200 Philadelphia coming up at four ten. 0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:02.720 This is the Otani ree wide yard Bros. 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:03.199 Two to zero. 0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:06.000 Otani cues it off the end of the bat, dribbling 0:09:06.040 --> 0:09:08.920 to the third base side. No play for cabiiro in 0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:12.280 An infield single for Show, who was laughing as. 0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:13.880 He crossed his first base. 0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:19.120 That was a batted ball against the Yankee infield shift. 0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:20.600 But the Dodgers will take it well. 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:22.559 But I don't know if that would even register on 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:25.079 a radar gun. That may be the softest base hit 0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:26.800 that those Honey's ever had in his life. 0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:29.360 Still goes down as a base hit. Showy Otani won 0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:31.400 for four last night. His single in the third, as 0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:34.040 you heard, one of only four hits all night for 0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:36.600 the Dodgers' offense. That was it as they dropped the 0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:39.560 series finale at Yankee Stadium last night by a final 0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:41.600 of two to one.

So I told me before the game, like, hey, 0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:19.800 let's go, let's get the first hit today. And I 0:11:20.240 --> 0:11:21.960 did it on the first at bat, and soon I 0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:24.959 went back to go to get aware. He comes straight 0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:26.960 to me and he says, congratulations. 0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:31.800 I told you yeah, as far as the bullpen game tonight, 0:11:32.600 --> 0:11:35.120 to handle those guys and to have a chance to 0:11:35.160 --> 0:11:38.200 win at the end.

I feel like we threw the 0:11:43.240 --> 0:11:46.680 boat really good. Uh throughout the game. I feel like 0:11:47.200 --> 0:11:52.839 every bullpen. Bullpen days are a little harder because you 0:11:52.920 --> 0:11:56.199 gotta you gotta do like quicker adjustment doing the games 0:11:56.200 --> 0:12:01.720 with everybody attacking, approaching the other team way with every 0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:04.400 single guy's trends. But I feel like we threw a really, 0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:09.040 really good game. We couldn't get the victory at the end, 0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:12.760 but we've got to keep going and think about tomorrow's 0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:13.960 game against Phillies. 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:17.840 All Right, there's Elliot Alfonso, the rookie catcher who picked 0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:21.880 up his first major league hit last night.

Blake Snell pitched over the weekend 0:13:35.920 --> 0:13:38.080 in Triple A, Oklahoma City. He's coming back from the 0:13:38.080 --> 0:13:41.160 same procedure done on his elbow that Edwin Diaz had 0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:44.120 been at different timelines.

Right, let's head 0:14:00.559 --> 0:14:03.280 back out to Philadelphia. Let's get the pregame thoughts. So 0:14:03.400 --> 0:14:04.160 the Dodgers giver. 0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:09.520 Questions for Dave Dave, Can you just describe Dave? 0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:11.439 Can you talk about the pressure. 0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:14.280 In the dugouts with Dave Robberts. 0:14:14.800 --> 0:14:17.480 You guys made a trade for Seth Halverson. What's the 0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:20.280 plan for him? Is he going to the famous Dodger 0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:22.480 pitching lab or what's the plan for him? 0:14:22.600 --> 0:14:26.320 I think Seth is going to go to ok See 0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:30.000 and then so hopefully we can you know, unlock some 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:34.400 levers and but the arm talents there and our guys 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:35.480 are really excited about him. 0:14:35.560 --> 0:14:37.720 Do you feel like from the feedback you've gotten and 0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:40.160 what you've seen, that getting out of chorus Field and 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:43.320 getting with you guys can give him a new opportunity? 0:14:43.600 --> 0:14:46.680 I think so, you know, I mean, obviously, we lost 0:14:46.720 --> 0:14:48.560 a couple of guys that we liked out of the 0:14:48.640 --> 0:14:51.720 draft a couple of years ago, and I'm sure Josh 0:14:51.720 --> 0:14:55.080 Burns had some you know, something to do with that familiarity. 0:14:55.120 --> 0:14:57.360 But again, yes, Seth, I think that there are some 0:14:57.400 --> 0:15:01.880 things our guys like so really excited the end of the. 0:15:01.680 --> 0:15:04.000 Top game, something that you of course. 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:05.880 Seen what continue the slim. 0:15:10.200 --> 0:15:15.560 I think that what I do see is Mooki staying 0:15:15.600 --> 0:15:19.480 in the five hole for a while. I do see 0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:26.600 show Hay still at the top and Freddy doing most 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:32.240 of that taking the bats in the three hole, and 0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:35.280 Andy being the two hole. So uh, you know, I 0:15:35.280 --> 0:15:38.320 think that the four the three four is something I'm 0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:39.840 gonna kind of kind of toying. 0:15:39.680 --> 0:15:41.880 With and why is that prompted? 0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:49.520 I think what prompted is I want to just I 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:52.280 think right now, I feel that I want to give 0:15:52.360 --> 0:16:00.520 Mooky a different look for two days game. Want to 0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:04.200 put a little bit more distance in between show hand Freddy. 0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:08.000 And that's kind of the thought today. 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:10.600 All right, there's the manager, Dave Roberts, a little bit 0:16:10.640 --> 0:16:13.080 of a tinker to the lineup, and the Dodgers making 0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:15.480 a trade to bring in another arm who they hope 0:16:15.520 --> 0:16:17.680 to get the pulleys and lovers working in the right 0:16:17.680 --> 0:16:20.600 direction for the newly acquired pitcher. When we continue here, 0:16:20.600 --> 0:16:22.640 I'm Wrongo Casino Dodgers on deck. We'll check you out 0:16:22.640 --> 0:16:25.640 with David Vassa, get you all the latest on this trade. 0:16:25.640 --> 0:16:27.680 What does it mean? Could this arm help out the 0:16:27.720 --> 0:16:30.680 Dodgers the second half of the season. DV joins his 0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:33.640 next from Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. Leave you up 0:16:33.680 --> 0:16:35.680 to first pitch on this Monday. I'm Tim Kayson, the 0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:38.120 back to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network. 0:16:41.600 --> 0:16:46.280 As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino Dodgers on 0:16:46.520 --> 0:16:50.400 jack on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball. 0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:55.360 It's the Dodgers and Phillies from Citizens Bank Park the 0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:57.640 opening game of a three games set Emma Sheen on 0:16:57.680 --> 0:17:00.160 the Mount Todgers Baseball brought to you by Alpato in 0:17:00.280 --> 0:17:02.240 La and made for your game day. A Poto brings 0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:06.640 authentic Mexican style tomato, sauces, suces and hot sauces right 0:17:06.680 --> 0:17:11.520 to your plate every single time. El Pato Gourmetana. 0:17:10.960 --> 0:17:15.520 Can joining Tim Kats on Dodgers on Deck. 0:17:15.560 --> 0:17:17.360 I accept everybody for who they are. 0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:21.480 This is Dodger insider David Bassi orright DV. 0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:24.000 We heard your question to Dave Roberts a few minutes ago. 0:17:24.080 --> 0:17:26.359 The Dodgers have acquired another picture. 0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:31.240 Yeah, Seth Halverson from the Rockies and from the people 0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:34.000 I've spoken to that are close to the Rockies, they 0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:36.320 told me he's got a great arm, can hit ninety eight, 0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:40.119 ninety nine. But the reality is, uh, he is a 0:17:40.160 --> 0:17:44.399 pitcher pitching at Corsefield and that's never fun. So the 0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:48.159 Dodgers believe getting him out of the altitude and getting 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:50.960 him with their pitching staff, and he is going to 0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:54.920 report to Oklahoma City. We'll see him at some point 0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:57.639 before now in the end of the year. But I 0:17:57.640 --> 0:18:01.800 think back to another Rocky reliever the Dodgers acquired, and 0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:05.600 that was former Ray Jake McGee. A number of years back, 0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:08.720 Andrew Friedman had him in Tampa Bay. They traded for 0:18:08.840 --> 0:18:11.320 him from the Rockies and he was really good with 0:18:11.400 --> 0:18:13.960 the Dodgers. So it is a thing to get a 0:18:14.000 --> 0:18:17.960 guy that has only known the altitude to get him 0:18:18.000 --> 0:18:20.600 out of pitching for the Rockies and get him back 0:18:20.600 --> 0:18:23.359 at sea level if you believe that he's good enough, 0:18:23.400 --> 0:18:25.440 and that's what the Dodgers are banking on. 0:18:25.960 --> 0:18:28.320 David is brought to you by the Ford Summer Sales Event. 0:18:28.359 --> 0:18:31.119 Don't wait hurrying down for the best offers of the year. Ford, 0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:34.960 the official vehicle of Major League Baseball. Speaking of the Bank, 0:18:35.000 --> 0:18:37.880 the Dodgers are at Citizens Bank Park in showing Otani 0:18:37.920 --> 0:18:38.480 what's the latest? 0:18:38.520 --> 0:18:43.360 David Well ballpark that show hey Otani has never hit 0:18:43.400 --> 0:18:45.880 a home run in his career, one of the few 0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:50.520 ballparks where he has never homered. And earlier today during Dodgers' 0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:54.320 batting practice, so Tani was actually pitching off a flat 0:18:54.440 --> 0:18:58.960 round again and did his usual ritual after he was done, 0:18:59.080 --> 0:19:03.000 through a baseball into the outfield stands, signed some autographs 0:19:03.400 --> 0:19:06.240 down the left field line, and then as he was 0:19:06.320 --> 0:19:09.800 coming back, I caught his eye and o'tani and I. 0:19:10.119 --> 0:19:13.720 You know, obviously I keep my distance. But there are 0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:17.200 some sarcastic moments that are unspoken. 0:19:17.560 --> 0:19:19.240 This was one of them. 0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:21.920 Like I mentioned, Otani has never hit a home run 0:19:21.920 --> 0:19:25.760 in this ballpark. We made eye contact and he pointed 0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:29.280 to the right field bleachers a la Babe ruth. Maybe 0:19:29.280 --> 0:19:30.720 calling a shot to yours. 0:19:30.760 --> 0:19:32.560 Truly, so it's. 0:19:32.359 --> 0:19:35.639 Gonna be tough against Christopher Sanchez, but you never know. 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.040 That could be him being aware that he's never hit 0:19:38.040 --> 0:19:40.280 a home run here. I don't know what it meant, 0:19:40.280 --> 0:19:42.720 but I'm taking it as he was calling his shot. 0:19:43.080 --> 0:19:45.240 Maybe tonight, maybe during this series. 0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:50.199 Must listen to radio when showy Otani gets into the 0:19:50.240 --> 0:19:53.960 box tonight there at Citizens Big Park, Great stuff DV. 0:19:54.200 --> 0:19:56.520 We'll be listening to see if he can get his 0:19:56.520 --> 0:19:59.399 home run that he has not gotten there in Philadelphia. 0:19:59.400 --> 0:20:01.560 Appreciate it. It's gonna go one on one coming up 0:20:01.560 --> 0:20:04.040 with Miguel or Rojas coming up in about fifteen minutes. 0:20:04.040 --> 0:20:06.400 Coming up here on Wrongo Casino. Dodgers on deck when 0:20:06.400 --> 0:20:11.240 we come back though your Dodgers Magical moment Dodgers Phillies, 0:20:11.280 --> 0:20:14.439 the first of three from Philadelphia.
