Speaker 1: For the back to back World Champions of Baseball.
Speaker 2: One of the greatest runs in the history of baseball.
Speaker 1: Immortality is within their reach.
Speaker 3: Incredible and while others make excuses.
Speaker 4: The only reason the Dodgers are doing this because they
Speaker 4: can they print money.
Speaker 1: The Dodgers just can't continue.
Speaker 2: It's not fair.
Speaker 1: Are making plans.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a singular focus on controlling what they can control.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on deck.

Speaker 6: in forty five minutes. We got your Dodgers magical moment.
Speaker 6: Charlie Steiner will stop by. We'll visit with Kirsten Watson
Speaker 6: coming up in just a few minutes, live on the
Speaker 6: field from Houston, and in just a few minutes we'll
Speaker 6: send it out to the Galloping four broadcast booth with
Speaker 6: Tim Neverett and Rick Monday. The Dodgers yesterday gave the
Speaker 6: ball to Yoshinobu Yamamoto six innings. He went, gave up
Speaker 6: three runs on five hits, struck out eight along the way.
Speaker 2: The Dodgers scored early and often.
Speaker 6: For Yamamoto, who over the last few seasons has been
Speaker 6: the victim of no run support, well he got all
Speaker 6: that he could ask for.
Speaker 2: Yesterday.
Speaker 6: Kyle Tucker got it started with an infield single in
Speaker 6: the first, scoring Will Smith, and the Dodgers grabbed a
Speaker 6: one nothing lead. However, Yamamoto gave back the run and
Speaker 6: the lead who as the Houston Astros scored two in
Speaker 6: the bottom of the first to take a two to
Speaker 6: one lead. But in the second the Dodgers came back
Speaker 6: to take the lead, and first they tied it up
Speaker 6: next to Alex Freeland and the.
Speaker 7: Roof is closed here tonight. I was told earlier today
Speaker 7: they've had the roof open for one game in the
Speaker 7: last two seasons, plus what they've had this season. Andy,
Speaker 7: this ball is hit deep to left field, it.
Speaker 5: Is high, it is far, it is down, an.
Speaker 7: Opposite field home run into the Crawford box is for
Speaker 7: Alex Freeland, and it's two to two.
Speaker 6: Alex friehlan his second home run of the season, this
Speaker 6: one into left center field, and that tied the game
Speaker 6: at two, and the Dodgers were just getting started. Will
Speaker 6: Smith and RBI double scoring show Hey. That gave the
Speaker 6: Dodgers a lead.
Speaker 2: Three to two.
Speaker 6: Then in the third inning, former astro Kyle Tucker returned
Speaker 6: to Houston.
Speaker 7: They lead baseball in walks given and also hit batsman
Speaker 7: and Tucker belts went to right field and deep.
Speaker 5: This ball back in has gone a home run.
Speaker 7: Kyle Tucker with a solo shot and it is four
Speaker 7: to two. Oh bullet of a line drive the right.
Speaker 8: Oh.
Speaker 9: Now it gives a few people a little bit more
Speaker 9: reason to show displeasure that he's no longer with the Astros.
Speaker 6: Kyle Tucker with the solo home run to right center,
Speaker 6: his fourth of the season. Dodgers they four to two,
Speaker 6: leave they get one more on a show Hey Otani
Speaker 6: RBI groundout five to two, and then Freddie Freeman with
Speaker 6: an RBI single an air helped the run come across
Speaker 6: Dodgers in the third inning, push across four runs as
Speaker 6: they go on top seven to two the Dodgers. Then
Speaker 6: Freddy Freeman added to that lead with an RBI single
Speaker 6: in the fifth, scoring Alex Freeland.
Speaker 2: Dodgers were up eight to two.
Speaker 6: In the fifth, well Yamamoto got tagged for a solo
Speaker 6: home run and that was it. Though damage was done
Speaker 6: as Yamamoto would go the six innings just the three
Speaker 6: runs eight strikeouts. Kyle Hurt pitched an inning of relieve.
Speaker 6: Blake Trenton got the eighth inning, he struck out three,
Speaker 6: and then Jack Dryer pitched the ninth inning. Gave up
Speaker 6: a hit, but a couple of strikeouts would end it.
Speaker 6: As the Dodgers beat the Astros yesterday eight to three,
Speaker 6: Yoshinobu Yamamoto gets to win. He's now three and two
Speaker 6: on this season. Freddie Freeman drives in a cup runs.
Speaker 6: Kyle Tucker, the former Astros with the home run, drives
Speaker 6: into pair as well. As the Dodgers get the victory.
Speaker 6: They're second in a row. They're now twenty two and
Speaker 6: thirteen on the season, and they look to make it
Speaker 6: three straight overall. With show Hey Otani on the mound,
Speaker 6: first bencham Houston's coming up at five ten and with more,
Speaker 6: let's head out to the Gallop and Ford Broadcast booth
Speaker 6: as we welcome in Tim Neverert and Rick Monday.
Speaker 2: Guys. Tim, thank you very much.
Speaker 7: Rufe closed once more here at Dykin Park in Houston, Texas.
Speaker 7: Dodgers at twenty two and thirteen a game and a
Speaker 7: half up on the Padres and the West standings, and
Speaker 7: in the Al West, the Astros fourteen and twenty two.
Speaker 7: They are five back of the first place Athletics. In fact,
Speaker 7: they've lost seven of their last eight home games. Tonight,
Speaker 7: all eyes turned to show hey Otani the major league
Speaker 7: leader in urn run average zero point six zero. He
Speaker 7: is the reigning National League Player of the Month, and
Speaker 7: throughout his story career, through his time in Anaheim and
Speaker 7: of course here in LA, he has never once been
Speaker 7: named pitcher of the Month, whether it was in the
Speaker 7: American League or the National League. So he goes out
Speaker 7: there for the first time in pitches tonight with that honor.
Speaker 9: Well, and he did it in find fashion too. I mean,
Speaker 9: the four starts, twenty four innings, two earned runs was
Speaker 9: all and in those twenty four innings allowed just sixteen
Speaker 9: Bays hits. So he's been right on top of it.
Speaker 9: How about the Dodgers last night? They scored last night
Speaker 9: almost as many runs as they had been able to
Speaker 9: amass over the previous five games. They put eight on
Speaker 9: the board last night. Previous five games total they had
Speaker 9: just eleven. And by the way, they hit the home
Speaker 9: run also last night two of them. That's the first
Speaker 9: time in seven games that they had hit one out
Speaker 9: of the ballpark, So hopefully things are back on track.
Speaker 9: We'll find out again tonight that offense is going to
Speaker 9: sustain itself.
Speaker 7: And the offense will be led off by Dalton Rushing again.
Speaker 7: A week ago he led off when Otani pitched and
Speaker 7: the Dodgers gave him the night off offensively, so Dalton
Speaker 7: Rushing back in their three forty average, but they at
Speaker 7: the left handed bat at the top of the order
Speaker 7: replacing O'toni.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't mean to be derogatory towards the Houston Astros.
Speaker 9: They're struggling. They're fourteen and twenty two, as you mentioned before.
Speaker 9: But here's the other part too. They currently have they
Speaker 9: added one more today. They have fourteen players on the
Speaker 9: injured list and most of those eight of those are pitchers.
Speaker 9: So if you look at the fact they've lost seven
Speaker 9: of eight at home at ERA in that period of time,
Speaker 9: the guys have had to be supplemental to the rotation
Speaker 9: and also out of the bullpen era of over six
Speaker 9: and a half. So the Dodgers hopefully they can kind
Speaker 9: of take advantage of it and that's what you have
Speaker 9: to do when teams are really banged up, and the
Speaker 9: Astros qualifying that category.
Speaker 7: Kyle Tucker had been moved down to the fifth spot
Speaker 7: in the order. He's moved back to clean up now.
Speaker 7: Hit a home run last night. It was a laser
Speaker 7: beam shot to the right field bleacher, something that he
Speaker 7: did a lot during his seven years here with the Astros.
Speaker 7: But in his last three games against his former team,
Speaker 7: he's hitting five hundred seven for fourteen, four extra base
Speaker 7: it's two home runs, five runs batted in. Maybe this
Speaker 7: was the jolt he needed to get going.
Speaker 9: Hopefully that's going to be the case. And also with
Speaker 9: a good game last night was Alex Friedland, who had
Speaker 9: three hints, including a home run. He was on base
Speaker 9: four different times, including a walk that he had. So
Speaker 9: he moves up to the eighth spot today again at
Speaker 9: second base, and Miguel Rojas gets the starting Nino at
Speaker 9: short stop. He'll bat in the number nine spot.
Speaker 7: So for the Astros, it'll be your Don Alvarez batting second,
Speaker 7: but he's in the field tonight. Alvare's twelve home runs.
Speaker 7: He's the reigning American League Player of the Month. He
Speaker 7: had a great end of March all through April for
Speaker 7: the Astros in spite of the fact that they are
Speaker 7: well under five hundred. But Alvarez was a tough out.
Speaker 9: Yeah, he's a tough out. But the problem has been
Speaker 9: And going back to the pitching for the Houston Ashros,
Speaker 9: they'll score some runs. In fact, their fifth best in
Speaker 9: Major League Baseball one hundred and eighty one runs scored.
Speaker 9: Dodgers are fourth best in that category. But here's the
Speaker 9: big difference. No team has allowed more runs than the
Speaker 9: Houston Astros. Well, they've scored one hundred and eighty one.
Speaker 9: They have given up two hundred and nine runs against them.
Speaker 7: Astros and Dodgers. It's show Hey Otani against Peter Lambert,
Speaker 7: who returns from Japan and is now with the Astros
Speaker 7: in a minor league deal. So Lambert and Otana the
Speaker 7: pitching matchup. We've got the first pitch lineups just around
Speaker 7: the corner.
Speaker 6: All right, thank you guys, as we carry you down

Speaker 6: drive it a run.
Speaker 1: This is Kirston's corner with Kirston, Watson.

Speaker 6: of this three game set. Brought to by Cars for Kids.
Speaker 6: The easiest way to get rid of that old car.
Speaker 6: Donate today your car could be picked up tomorrow. That
Speaker 6: easy donate now Carsfrokids Dot Organ that's Cars with a
Speaker 6: K show Hey Otani on the mound tonight. He's been
Speaker 6: fantastic as the pitcher, slumping a little bit offensively and
Speaker 6: Dave Roberts, I guess during the game yesterday had said,
Speaker 6: you know what, we don't need him to do ball tonight.
Speaker 6: So he's not hitting, yeah, you.
Speaker 10: Know he said yesterday for show, Hey, he was able
Speaker 10: to get on base, he scored twice, he drove in
Speaker 10: a run with a fielders choice. But with what we're
Speaker 10: continuing to see from himf you look at his last
Speaker 10: five games, he is still over seventeen and so it
Speaker 10: doesn't you know, she's not someone who's going to really
Speaker 10: show so much of his frustration. He's not going to
Speaker 10: talk about feeling fatigued. But Dave Roberts was saying that
Speaker 10: he just felt when he was watching him yesterday at
Speaker 10: the plate, just like, you know, I want him to
Speaker 10: just focus on pitching today. He obviously has been excellent
Speaker 10: this year, carrying a point six year ot RA through
Speaker 10: his first five starts. So today was more of, you know,
Speaker 10: like let's just allow him to kind of have a
Speaker 10: mental reset, a physical reset. There was so much that
Speaker 10: goes into that. I mean, truly, none of us, none
Speaker 10: other baseball players, truly understand what it takes to be
Speaker 10: a two way player. Yesterday we literally saw him come
Speaker 10: in early for early work, to do some work in
Speaker 10: the hitting cage, to try to get back on track offensively.
Speaker 10: We then saw him go straight to the bullpen afterwards
Speaker 10: to work on some stuff for his start today. So
Speaker 10: there's just so much such in going into it, and
Speaker 10: it does seem like it's that's the key. It's starting
Speaker 10: to kind of build up. So Dave said that after
Speaker 10: the game, we had a conversation with him and just
Speaker 10: finding ways to continue to protect show. Hey, obviously they're
Speaker 10: thinking about the long run. They want him to be
Speaker 10: the successful two way player come October that not only
Speaker 10: he has been, but let we know he is. And
Speaker 10: so if that means that right now, if that means
Speaker 10: you're going to focus on pitching and not being at
Speaker 10: the plate today, do that allow yourself kind of a
Speaker 10: mental physical research is focusing on one aspect of this game.
Speaker 10: But they're hoping, you know, they do believe people will
Speaker 10: get back on track. His track record shows that he
Speaker 10: will get back on tracks. It's just you have to
Speaker 10: also consider it. There's just his first time being back
Speaker 10: to a true two way player. Yeah, in about three years,
Speaker 10: you know, so it is going to take some time
Speaker 10: for him to get readjusted. But they're really just trying
Speaker 10: to have him, keeping him in a place where he's
Speaker 10: balanced and still able to kind of work through it
Speaker 10: at the same time, no.
Speaker 8: Doubt about it.
Speaker 6: He's also thirty one, not twenty seven like he was
Speaker 6: back then, So Curris.
Speaker 2: That we appreciate it. We'll check in with you after
Speaker 2: the game. Still to come.
Speaker 6: Here on Wrongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, we'll preview this
Speaker 6: pitching matchup David Vatsego's one on one with.

Speaker 1: He's the LA Dodgers Injury.
Speaker 6: Report presented by UCLA Healthy Official Medical Partner of the
Speaker 6: Los Angeles Dodgers.
Speaker 2: Keith a Hernandez on the IL.
Speaker 6: Buddy is in Oklahoma City on a minor league rehab assignment,
Speaker 6: starting a third base and batting second tonight for the comments.
Speaker 6: Bruce dar Gradol has already pitched in a game in

Speaker 6: Tommy Edvon playing Snell. Brock Stewart is with the team.
Speaker 6: He has made a couple of appearances in the minor

Speaker 6: We'll find Banks spurious landing that Gavin Stone Evan Phillips
Speaker 6: all on the i L with arm injuries. Let's head
Speaker 6: back out to Houston and check out with the Dodger manager, Dave.
Speaker 2: Do you think questions for Dave?
Speaker 8: Dave? Can you just describe Dave? Can you talk about
Speaker 8: the pressure in.
Speaker 1: The dugouts with Dave Robberts.
Speaker 11: I think what I've learned about show Hate is his
Speaker 11: uh primary focus is hoping the Dodgers win. And I
Speaker 11: say that because he understands the rest that he potentially
Speaker 11: gets by not hitting on certain days that he doesn't
Speaker 11: pitch is best for him in the short and the
Speaker 11: long term for him and the Dodgers. I think that's
Speaker 11: one thing. I think he is smart enough to know
Speaker 11: his body very well, of his body and how it's
Speaker 11: responding to the to what's we're asking of him as
Speaker 11: far as you know, hitting and pitching, So to be
Speaker 11: self aware and honest with where his body is at
Speaker 11: and to not and to listen to it in the
Speaker 11: sense of someone I talked to him about giving him
Speaker 11: an off day. There's no resistance, is complete buy in,
Speaker 11: and that's that's.
Speaker 10: A good thing. So then do you think just some
Speaker 10: of these offensive struggles could then be due to more
Speaker 10: of that, just fatigue of how demanding his role is.
Speaker 11: I do I do you know? You know with with
Speaker 11: with pitching, there's the day of the start, what it
Speaker 11: takes on your mind in the box, the day after
Speaker 11: you're hitting, the tax on your body and what you
Speaker 11: endured the day before you're outing, so that affects the hitting.
Speaker 11: That's two days right there. So obviously you know when
Speaker 11: I write his name in the lineup, I feel very
Speaker 11: good about writing show his name in the lineup every time.
Speaker 11: But I do think that you know, with what he's
Speaker 11: done on the pitching side and how well he's pitched.
Speaker 11: There's been a little bit of you know, fallback or
Speaker 11: whatever on the hitting, but I do think that it'll
Speaker 11: correct itself, you know, as time goes on.
Speaker 6: All Right, there's a manager Dave Roberts, a lot of
Speaker 6: talk about show Hey Otani and whether or not he
Speaker 6: could continue to be a two way player on the
Speaker 6: day that he pitches long season folks, Well we continue here,
Speaker 6: I'm wrong with Casino Dodgers on deck. We will check
Speaker 6: in with the David Vance saying get more on this
Speaker 6: and more on the Dodgers. As we lead you up
Speaker 6: to first pitch from Houston, I'm Tim Kates is the
Speaker 6: back to.
Speaker 2: Back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: As we were saying, yes, is Marongo Casino Dodgers on
Speaker 3: Jack on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 2: Dodgers and Astros.
Speaker 6: On this Tuesday, Peter Lamberts goes for the Astro show,
Speaker 6: Hey Otania on the Mound. Dodgers Baseball is brought to
Speaker 6: you by Alpatel, born in La and made for your
Speaker 6: game day. El Poto brings authentic Mexican style tomato sauces,
Speaker 6: salsas and hot sauces. Right to your table, perfect for
Speaker 6: Sinko Tomayo El Poto Gourmet and a.
Speaker 1: Can joining Tim kits on Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 5: I accept everybody for who they are.
Speaker 1: This is Dodger insider David Base all.
Speaker 6: Right, dv so no show Heyo Tani the hitter tonight
Speaker 6: solely a pitchure. This is the third time that has
Speaker 6: happened this season. Is this something we're gonna see moving forward?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 5: Andrew Friedman told us on the last homestand that the
Speaker 5: Dodgers are going to read and react. There's going to
Speaker 5: be some games where Otani, like tonight, doesn't hit. There
Speaker 5: might be some games where he does both, but then
Speaker 5: the following day does not hit or play. He's a
Speaker 5: thread off the bench. So the Dodgers are going to
Speaker 5: read and react. And I have a feeling Tim. If
Speaker 5: show Heo Tani was hitting the ball, well, he would
Speaker 5: not be sitting tonight for seventeen in his last we
Speaker 5: handful of games, one home run in his last eighty
Speaker 5: four played appearances. And if I'm the Dodgers, I don't
Speaker 5: play him tomorrow either. I don't know what one day
Speaker 5: is going to do for him, and he doesn't have
Speaker 5: time today to really focus on trying to get out
Speaker 5: of that slump. He's focused on being the best starting
Speaker 5: pitcher he can be for tonight, so I don't see
Speaker 5: any harm. Only good to sit Otani tomorrow. Thursday is
Speaker 5: a day off, and then have him come back fresh
Speaker 5: for Friday when the Dodgers return home and start a
Speaker 5: three game series against the best team in baseball in
Speaker 5: the Atlanta Braves. Furthermore on that topic, I would have
Speaker 5: had debt of Freddie Freeman, despite kicking and screaming. I
Speaker 5: would have him DH tonight and Dalton Rushing play first base,
Speaker 5: and tomorrow I would have Dalton Rushing catch and Will
Speaker 5: Smith be the DH. You gotta get Rushing in there
Speaker 5: more than what they have been considering he has the
Speaker 5: second most home runs on this team to Max Munsey,
Speaker 5: for a team that just barely hit their first home
Speaker 5: run in their last seven games last night.
Speaker 6: David is brought to by the Ford Maverick Motor Trends
Speaker 6: in North American Truck of the Year. The Ford Maverick
Speaker 6: everything you need in the most innovative truck with forty
Speaker 6: two miles per gallon at the best MSRP. If it's
Speaker 6: category It's time to see Ford in a new lego
Speaker 6: to your Southern California Ford Dealers today. A few minutes ago,
Speaker 6: we had the injury report DV Edwin Diaz, a lot
Speaker 6: of pitchers on the injured list. Blake Snell's made a
Speaker 6: rehab appearance, who though out of the group that is
Speaker 6: a pretty big group right now, is close to coming back.
Speaker 5: I'm going with brox Stewart as soon as tomorrow. The
Speaker 5: Dodgers would not have brox Stewart show up in Houston
Speaker 5: just to fly back with the team to LA. They
Speaker 5: know how to manage a bullpen, they know how to
Speaker 5: manage workloads, and this is probably the date that they
Speaker 5: circle to have brox Stewart return Tomorrow, the day game
Speaker 5: after a night game, and after that, you know, Blake
Speaker 5: Snell's going to make one more rehabs start and likely
Speaker 5: to come back in that series against the Angels a
Speaker 5: week from Fridays. So reinforcements are on the way. Pitching wise,
Speaker 5: keyk Hernandez can't come back until May twenty third ish,
Speaker 5: he'll be back then. Tommy Edman won't be back until June.
Speaker 5: So in the order of returning brock Stewart Blake Snell,
Speaker 5: Mookie Betts would be my three that are coming back
Speaker 5: within the next two weeks.
Speaker 2: All right, appreciate it.
Speaker 8: DV.
Speaker 6: We'll check back with you in just a little bit.
Speaker 6: Still to come here. I'm Marie Wrongo Casino Dodgers on deck.

Speaker 6: Haffey Sokow's local treasure for nearly one hundred years Offfey
Speaker 6: hot Dogs, Local and so great. When we continue here
Speaker 6: on Dodgers on Deck, we'll check in with Charlie Steiner,
Speaker 6: whose voice you just heard on the call back in
Speaker 6: twenty seventeen. As we lead you up to first pitch
Speaker 6: Dodgers and Astros. I'm Tim Kais's the back to back
Speaker 6: World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck on your home
Speaker 1: for the Blue all season long.
Speaker 6: Ronggo Casino Dodgers on Deck continues. Tim Kate's with you
Speaker 6: here on this Tuesday as the Dodgers are in Houston
Speaker 6: to take on the Ashros Show. Hey Otani on the
Speaker 6: mount against Peter Lambert. Time now for the Verizon startup,
Speaker 6: as we are thirty five.
Speaker 2: Minutes away from the start of the game.
Speaker 6: Now, Verizon, you can lock in your Low prize for
Speaker 6: three years so you can save big. Visit the Verizon
Speaker 6: store today. Let's check in with Charlie.
Speaker 12: All right, Tim, The Dodgers finally scored some runs last
Speaker 12: night eight to three, they beat the Astros. Astros are dreadful.
Speaker 12: At fourteen and twenty two. They're in fourth place in
Speaker 12: the American League West, five behind the first place Athletics,
Speaker 12: one game in front of the last place Angels, twenty
Speaker 12: two and thirteen in first place, game and a half
Speaker 12: in front of the Padres. So the Dodgers finally scored
Speaker 12: some runs eight or more for the first time in
Speaker 12: a long time, tenth time all season. They're now tied
Speaker 12: with Atlanta for eight or more runs in a game.
Speaker 12: This is a thirteenth time the Astros surrendered at least
Speaker 12: eight runs. They ain't got no pitching, and the Dodgers
Speaker 12: have shohey O Tani merely the pitcher of the month
Speaker 12: in the National League going tonight against Peter Lambert.
Speaker 9: Well, if you look at the Astros, they put yet
Speaker 9: another player on the injured list today, injured his oblique
Speaker 9: in bannic practice yesterday, So now they have fourteen players
Speaker 9: on the injured list. But you know, it's been a
Speaker 9: rough go of it, no question about it for the Dodgers.
Speaker 9: As you mentioned, eight runs on the board, that's a
Speaker 9: landslide considering they had scored what just eleven runs combined
Speaker 9: over the previous five games, so maybe the offense is
Speaker 9: going in. Oh, by the way, the Dodgers also hit
Speaker 9: a couple of home runs, first time they've left the
Speaker 9: ballpark in seven games and hitting one out of the park.
Speaker 12: So the Dodgers' output last night of eight runs, the
Speaker 12: question is was it them or us? Well, it doesn't
Speaker 12: really matter at show. How Otani goes for the Dodgers
Speaker 12: tonight the National League Picture of the Month. He's two
Speaker 12: and one with a point six er. This is going
Speaker 12: to be his sixth start. Opponents are hitting just one
Speaker 12: sixty against him. He hasn't given up a home run.
Speaker 12: A little wonder then he is the National League Pitcher
Speaker 12: of the month. He's not hitting tonight. He all he
Speaker 12: has to do is just throw the little baseball.
Speaker 9: Well, that little baseball seems really little to hitters, evidently,
Speaker 9: because when he's ahead in the count to a hitter,
Speaker 9: it's just a one h two batting average against. I mean,
Speaker 9: we're talking about mini school numbers.
Speaker 2: Charlie.
Speaker 9: Did you have to look at and you look at
Speaker 9: him a couple of different signs say wait a minute,
Speaker 9: is this a misprint or is it factual? Well, it's
Speaker 9: factual with Otani U. The one change is, you know,
Speaker 9: yesterday Dave Roberts is saying, well, it's most likely that
Speaker 9: Otani will also serve as the designated hitter tonight while
Speaker 9: he's pitching. Well, that changed last night after the ballgame.
Speaker 9: Otani's been working with that swing a little bit more so,
Speaker 9: trying to save some energy. Roberts is with Otani, so
Speaker 9: he will be strictly a pitcher tonight as he starts
Speaker 9: against the Astros.
Speaker 12: Well, the numbers speak for themselves. He hasn't hit a
Speaker 12: lick when he has pitched, of course, of Toni being Otani,
Speaker 12: so he's going to sit it out at least while
Speaker 12: the other fellows go out and hit the ball. Rushing
Speaker 12: is going to be leading it off as the DH tonight.
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's going to be a little different, and I
Speaker 9: think Roberts thinking is he does not want to disrupt
Speaker 9: the lineup by a large margin, so you put Rushing
Speaker 9: in there. He's been hitting the ball very well until
Speaker 9: the recent times, the last couple of games. But it's
Speaker 9: also going to be Miguel Rojas starts a short stop,
Speaker 9: so the flip Floffett Freeland had a good game last night,
Speaker 9: very good game. Indeed, moves up to the eighth spot.
Speaker 9: Rojas will be a short stop, he will bet in
Speaker 9: the ninth spot. Everything else kind of remains the same.
Speaker 9: After Kyle Tucker, he enjoyed his return to Houston, even
Speaker 9: though there were a couple of booze But I think
Speaker 9: it was more of situation, not against Kyle Tucker. It
Speaker 9: was sadness that he was not still here in Houston,
Speaker 9: the displeasure.
Speaker 12: You know, we mentioned Otani and his point six to
Speaker 12: er that is the second lowest RA in the National League.
Speaker 12: Who's got the lowest Justin Robleski at point five six.
Speaker 12: So the Dodgers' top two pitchers so far this season,
Speaker 12: at least statistically, Roblusky and O'tani have been utterly lights out.
Speaker 9: Yeah, Dan, it's not just with one particular pitch either,
Speaker 9: And you know the fastball. He's got the second lowest
Speaker 9: batting average against with the fast balls one forty five.
Speaker 9: Who is the lowest in Major League Baseball Paul Skin,
Speaker 9: So one forty five for Otani, one twenty seven underheater
Speaker 9: thrown by Skins. But as you mentioned, also that the
Speaker 9: runners in scoring position a very low batting average against.
Speaker 9: But here's the other part. He hasn't had too many
Speaker 9: opportunities to pitch with in scoring position. Two runs last outing,
Speaker 9: but only one of those runs was earned. That was
Speaker 9: a game simply the Dodgers did not score or hit
Speaker 9: the ball particularly well with him on the mound.
Speaker 12: Well Yamamoto was the starter last night as the Dodgers
Speaker 12: improved their record at twenty two and thirteen. The Astros
Speaker 12: go with Peter Lambert, who has kicked around He's been
Speaker 12: with the Rockies, pitched in Japan last year, and so
Speaker 12: Otani for the Dodgers. Lambert for the Astros. Well lineup's
Speaker 12: the first pitch for the nights game. We're coming right up, Tim, all.
Speaker 2: Right, thank you, Charlie.
Speaker 6: Dodgers Baseball is brought to you by uniclow Field at

Speaker 6: But up nice, we go high and tight with Dodger
Speaker 6: pitching coach Mark Pryor, Dodgers and Astros on this Tuesday
Speaker 6: of the Sinko to Mile.
Speaker 2: Thanks for being with us. I'm Tim Katz.
Speaker 6: It's back to back World Series champion Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 3: As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino, Dodgers on
Speaker 3: Jack on the official home of La Dodgers.
Speaker 6: Baseball, Dodgers on Deck continues, is we lead up to
Speaker 6: Dodgers and Astros show Hey Otani on the Mount San
Speaker 6: Dimas High Schools owned Peter Lambert.
Speaker 2: We'll go for the Ashros.
Speaker 6: Dodgers Baseball is brought to you by Shaky's Pizza Parlor,
Speaker 6: the official pizza partner of the Dodgers Audio broadcast. When
Speaker 6: it's game night, it's group night at Shaky's dot Com.
Speaker 3: And now what will likely be vast a fielding insults
Speaker 3: from a Dodger player.
Speaker 2: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 1: This is high and tight.
Speaker 5: Well, what better way to celebrate Sinco de Mayo and
Speaker 5: show Hey Otani being on the mound than checking in
Speaker 5: with the Dodgers pitching coach Mark Pryor. Mark, I hope
Speaker 5: you got some text Mex ready to go after the
Speaker 5: game tonight.
Speaker 8: Yeah. I gotta be honest, the non eating a whole
Speaker 8: lot out for these games. We got a quick turnaround tomorrow,
Speaker 8: so you know, we'll just spend the night show.
Speaker 5: Hey, Otani is on the mound for you tonight. Mark
Speaker 5: and Dave Roberts said after the game that he decided
Speaker 5: somewhere towards his third or fourth at bat that he
Speaker 5: was not going to have him lead off. And DH,
Speaker 5: were you part of those conversations to make that decision
Speaker 5: in the dugout? What goes into deciding, you know, what
Speaker 5: it may be best for him just to pitch tonight.
Speaker 8: Well, I mean, ultimately that's that's Doc's call, and he's
Speaker 8: got a really good feel for what he's seeing in
Speaker 8: the moment, you know, and we're all seeing it kind
Speaker 8: of the dugout. I mean, he you know, he was
Speaker 8: running the bases, he got on base, he beat out
Speaker 8: that double play to get that one run, and then
Speaker 8: he's you know, first to third, first to home. You know,
Speaker 8: you can just see, you know, the amount of exertion
Speaker 8: that he was putting in as well as what he
Speaker 8: had done in the day already, you know, took IVP
Speaker 8: or not LIVP, took batting practice on the field early,
Speaker 8: been through a small bullpen to prepare for today, and
Speaker 8: then obviously what he did in the game, And so
Speaker 8: it's not a yes no or a black and white situation.
Speaker 8: I think you're just kind of reading like, what's you know,
Speaker 8: what's the workload that he's been putting in, and I
Speaker 8: think last night and given everything that you bake in
Speaker 8: from yesterday's pregame and during the game, it just seems
Speaker 8: to make sense. Like, you know, it's focus on the
Speaker 8: pitching because that's a tax I mean, that's obviously very
Speaker 8: taxing as it is. So I think it's more about
Speaker 8: just starts, you know, going to start to start, what
Speaker 8: has been going on leading up to that that start,
Speaker 8: and what maybe happened, you know, within the forty eight
Speaker 8: hours of that start. But again, I think Doc's got
Speaker 8: a really good feel and a good pulse of where
Speaker 8: show is physically, and then obviously watching what's going on
Speaker 8: in the field. I think if you know, he walks
Speaker 8: four times and it never leaves first base, you know,
Speaker 8: maybe there's a different decision and he didn't hit yesterday
Speaker 8: and stuff like that. So I think it's just trying
Speaker 8: to understand where he's at going into it and where
Speaker 8: he's at, you know, right before it, and making sure
Speaker 8: we're in the best position possible May fifth, as well
Speaker 8: as October fifth, And I think ultimately that's you know,
Speaker 8: you're trying to have the short short term goal or
Speaker 8: the short term view in the long term view.
Speaker 5: Here's the one part that I can't wrap my head around.
Speaker 5: Thirty one years old, he's the greatest player on the planet,
Speaker 5: trying to be the best at pitching and hitting like
Speaker 5: he has been his entire career. But as you know, Mark,
Speaker 5: as you get over thirty, the recovery time takes a
Speaker 5: little bit longer and a lot more maintenance. How is
Speaker 5: he able to do the recovery of making a start
Speaker 5: going six to seven innings and then you know, having
Speaker 5: to DH the next day or maybe even two days later.
Speaker 5: Is that something we fail to appreciate.
Speaker 8: There's always like a recovery aspect that as much as
Speaker 8: we've advanced in that, I don't know if there's a
Speaker 8: true appreciation for each individual. Some thirty one year olds
Speaker 8: I feel like they're twenty five, and some feel like
Speaker 8: they're forty five. You know, I think one thing he's
Speaker 8: really a master at is you know, what everybody's always
Speaker 8: given advice about is you know, get a lot of sleep,
Speaker 8: you know, and so I do know he values that
Speaker 8: and that's where you do recover. It's not always just
Speaker 8: like what you do. It's about allowing your body to
Speaker 8: actually recover, and that's that's probably sleeping, and so, you know,
Speaker 8: I think that's where he does. He's very disciplined on
Speaker 8: that aspect of it. But as far as everything else, again,
Speaker 8: I think it's just you know, he's he's done it before,
Speaker 8: and I think he's learning how to do it at
Speaker 8: a thirty one year olds, which again it is different
Speaker 8: than being in the mid twenties. But he does take
Speaker 8: care of himself extremely well, and you know, again we
Speaker 8: do our best to have an understanding of where he's
Speaker 8: at physically, and I think that's why you're seeing days
Speaker 8: like this where he's taking you know, half the game
Speaker 8: off and to let him do what he's been doing
Speaker 8: on the mound, which is has been pretty remarkable on
Speaker 8: its own, and that gets kind of lost in it
Speaker 8: because everybody wants to see the offensive side. But you know,
Speaker 8: obviously pitching, he's been a huge part of what we've
Speaker 8: done so far this year.
Speaker 5: Mark before I let you go, one last question show
Speaker 5: him been so good as a starting pitcher this year.
Speaker 5: Is there one pitch that impresses you the most out
Speaker 5: of his entire repertoire.
Speaker 2: Is it the sweeper?
Speaker 5: Is it the way he's adjusted his split fingered fastball.
Speaker 5: What's impressed you the most as far as one singular
Speaker 5: pitch that he's thrown.
Speaker 8: I don't think it's an actual pitch because I think
Speaker 8: at various times they're all you know, plus plus and
Speaker 8: you know it, you know, and he has a pretty
Speaker 8: good feel of what he wants to use. I think
Speaker 8: what's been really impressive is and when he's gotten into
Speaker 8: somebody's given him a you know, a pretty good battle,
Speaker 8: and his ability to adjust kind of his delivery. He
Speaker 8: you know, he messes with their timing and does a
Speaker 8: little hesitation in the middle of the delivery, or he
Speaker 8: does some quick steps. It's, you know, it's kind of
Speaker 8: that second third layer of the game that you know
Speaker 8: sometimes and for the majority of guys don't need or
Speaker 8: don't use. I shouldn't say they don't need it, they
Speaker 8: just don't use. But his ability to kind of tinker
Speaker 8: a little bit of just kind of pause a little
Speaker 8: bit mid delivery, mess up the hitters timing, and here
Speaker 8: comes ninety you know, upper nineties one hundred mine hour fastball,
Speaker 8: or here comes you know, a sixty nine mini hour curveball.
Speaker 8: You know. So I think that's been a pretty impressive
Speaker 8: thing is just playing the game as it's as it's unfolding.
Speaker 8: And we try to talk about don't go in there
Speaker 8: with such predetermined you know, concepts like listen to like
Speaker 8: watch the game, read the games. What the game is
Speaker 8: telling you is what the game needs. And I think
Speaker 8: that he's really good at that, you know, right now
Speaker 8: on the mound, is being able to make those adjustments.
Speaker 8: Those have been pretty impressive, if not comical at times,
Speaker 8: just because you don't see it very you know, very often.
Speaker 8: And when he busted it out the other day, I
Speaker 8: think those two starts ago, you're just like wow, Like
Speaker 8: it's just kind of like another it's a high level,
Speaker 8: high IQ move by him, and you know, you get
Speaker 8: some punch outs doing it or some ground balls and
Speaker 8: gets out of situations.
Speaker 5: So you're saying he reads swings as the game is
Speaker 5: going on. I always heard Krushaw say that all the time,
Speaker 5: that he's reading the swings and that will tell you
Speaker 5: what direction to go in.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think he's reading swings in therrection direction of pitches.
Speaker 8: But I think when he gets in these battles, it's
Speaker 8: and he understands the timing as a hitter more so
Speaker 8: than any other pitcher you know who's playing right now
Speaker 8: for obvious reasons. He understands the timing component of it
Speaker 8: and if he can mess with it, if he can
Speaker 8: gain that edge, he's going to do it. And again,
Speaker 8: I think it's just it's a high IQ mute move
Speaker 8: and it's fun to see and we talk about it
Speaker 8: with other guys and you see other guys do it.
Speaker 8: But to be able to do it as well as
Speaker 8: pitch and hit and do all those things, you know,
Speaker 8: it's it's pretty impressive.
Speaker 5: Well show Heyo Tani's workload is definitely the biggest of
Speaker 5: any player. But I don't know any other coach that
Speaker 5: has more on his plate than Connor McGinnis and Mark
Speaker 5: Pryor with all these great pitchers that they have on
Speaker 5: their staff, trying to help them maximize the best they
Speaker 5: can be. So Mark, thank you so much for the time.
Speaker 5: I know your day is very limited, so we appreciate
Speaker 5: you joining us.

Speaker 9: And it's a heavy workload. I mean, I don't understand
Speaker 9: how he's able to do it. It's it's mind boggling
Speaker 9: how he's able to do it both as a hitter
Speaker 9: and then working on the pitching on top of that.
Speaker 9: And it's also mind boggling. We start to look, if
Speaker 9: you're a hitter and he had two strikes against you
Speaker 9: against show Hey Tani this year, how about an sixty
Speaker 9: seven batting average against he gets ahead, we have not
Speaker 9: seen too many hits at all. And by the way,
