WEBVTT - Dodgers Waive the White Flag vs Red Sox

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:03.160
<v Speaker 1>It was one of those big picture games, not one

0:00:03.200 --> 0:00:18.440
<v Speaker 1>of those win at all costs tonight kind of games.

0:00:19.840 --> 0:00:21.680
<v Speaker 2>Well, Jeff, it's the first time you've been on all

0:00:21.920 --> 0:00:24.079
<v Speaker 2>what is this called Dodgers territory in a while, and

0:00:24.120 --> 0:00:26.440
<v Speaker 2>it's not a fun game to be here. But you

0:00:26.480 --> 0:00:30.319
<v Speaker 2>are pinch hitting for Alana tonight and the Dodgers. I

0:00:30.320 --> 0:00:34.080
<v Speaker 2>guess they hit a little bit, but man, just not

0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:40.560
<v Speaker 2>a fun game at all. Five run seventh for Boston

0:00:41.080 --> 0:00:45.920
<v Speaker 2>seals the win for them, seals the punt game. We're

0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:48.520
<v Speaker 2>locking in now. I'm as locked in as Cole Irvin

0:00:48.720 --> 0:00:52.840
<v Speaker 2>was there. But yeah, just reactions, immediate thoughts on this one.

0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:54.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it was.

0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:56.920
<v Speaker 1>It was one of those games where you kind of

0:00:57.520 --> 0:01:01.720
<v Speaker 1>fear this was how it would turn out, you know,

0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:05.399
<v Speaker 1>not so much a punt game. And maybe this is semantics,

0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:07.120
<v Speaker 1>which is why I got an English degree so I

0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:11.280
<v Speaker 1>can deal with deal with semantics. But you know, this

0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:14.520
<v Speaker 1>was a game of let's see if the offense can

0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:17.880
<v Speaker 1>score enough runs to give us a win, even though

0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:21.600
<v Speaker 1>we are going to have a minor league pitcher throw

0:01:21.640 --> 0:01:24.800
<v Speaker 1>one hundred pitches, because that was the plan all along.

0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:27.200
<v Speaker 1>Like you and I when we when we heard that

0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.119
<v Speaker 1>cole Irvin had been added to the active roster, and

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:31.640
<v Speaker 1>it was a bullpen game today.

0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:32.600
<v Speaker 2>That was the.

0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:33.600
<v Speaker 3>Easiest math to do.

0:01:34.120 --> 0:01:36.959
<v Speaker 1>One plus one equals to cole Irvan's thrown one hundred

0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:37.520
<v Speaker 1>pitches tonight.

0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:39.320
<v Speaker 3>It was one hundred and two pitches.

0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:41.440
<v Speaker 1>Some of them were good, a lot of them weren't,

0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 1>and then the offense couldn't do enough to win the game.

0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:47.360
<v Speaker 1>But it was one of those big picture games, not

0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:51.200
<v Speaker 1>one of those win at all costs tonight kind of games.

0:01:51.440 --> 0:01:54.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, people in the chat obviously understandably not going to

0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:57.000
<v Speaker 2>be very happy. It is to borrow from my friend

0:01:57.360 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 2>over from the All Dodgers YouTube channel, Jeff Snyder. It

0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:03.160
<v Speaker 2>is one game. If you guys don't know, that is

0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:06.480
<v Speaker 2>Jeff Snyder right there. We we are two parts of

0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:09.679
<v Speaker 2>the four people that make up All Dodgers. Here. We're

0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:12.720
<v Speaker 2>talking a little bit of post game recap here on

0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:14.799
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers territory, and then we're gonna move over to All

0:02:14.840 --> 0:02:18.400
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers after this and talk more about big picture stuff,

0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:21.600
<v Speaker 2>maybe some of the bullpen because it did not look

0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:26.320
<v Speaker 2>good tonight. Henriquez gets the ball in the first inning,

0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:30.399
<v Speaker 2>pitches around a or works around a single in there

0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:34.280
<v Speaker 2>and then yeah, we'll climb. Continues the decline for him

0:02:34.320 --> 0:02:37.079
<v Speaker 2>in this one. Let's talk about the good. We got

0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:39.080
<v Speaker 2>the good, the bad, the ugly, the good three hits

0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:43.240
<v Speaker 2>for Freddy, he you know, continues to be locked in

0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:46.880
<v Speaker 2>show Hay. Couple of knocks in there the day after

0:02:48.040 --> 0:02:50.680
<v Speaker 2>a rest day there, including a monster Homer has the

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:53.480
<v Speaker 2>double in there. A lot of things we could touch

0:02:53.480 --> 0:02:55.000
<v Speaker 2>on with that. Let's let's stick with show Hay a

0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:59.639
<v Speaker 2>little bit, because you know, he's he's not helping the

0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:01.680
<v Speaker 2>give him a rest to get you know, put him

0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:03.519
<v Speaker 2>on the il for a little bit narrative. Or maybe

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:06.520
<v Speaker 2>he is because every time he has like one game

0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:09.440
<v Speaker 2>off he comes back, which is now twice in the

0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:12.080
<v Speaker 2>last week. He takes that one day off, he comes

0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:14.600
<v Speaker 2>back and he cranks a homer and a double and

0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:18.200
<v Speaker 2>he just you know, looks good. He looks like shoe

0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:20.799
<v Speaker 2>Heeyotani at the plate. What do you think is does

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:23.040
<v Speaker 2>it help the narrative or hurt the narrative to give

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:23.919
<v Speaker 2>him a rest?

0:03:24.520 --> 0:03:28.400
<v Speaker 1>I you know, it probably like most narratives, it does

0:03:28.440 --> 0:03:31.920
<v Speaker 1>whatever whatever you want it to do. It's like presidential debates.

0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:35.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, the guy you like wins the debate. That's

0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:39.280
<v Speaker 1>just how things work with narratives. Even though Tani's ground

0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:41.040
<v Speaker 1>out in the ninth inning was one hundred and four

0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:42.960
<v Speaker 1>miles an hour off, the bat had a five eighty

0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:47.440
<v Speaker 1>expected batting average, so he could have three hits today. Definitely.

0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:51.440
<v Speaker 1>Obviously they want to keep him healthy. They want him

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:55.080
<v Speaker 1>to be as healthy as he can be in October,

0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:58.960
<v Speaker 1>ideally to pitch and hit. But you definitely need his

0:03:59.000 --> 0:04:05.120
<v Speaker 1>bat in October. You know, you can maybe if everybody

0:04:05.160 --> 0:04:09.720
<v Speaker 1>else gets healthy, you know, including future Dodger Trek Scoogle.

0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:13.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, you can make a case that maybe you

0:04:13.720 --> 0:04:16.839
<v Speaker 1>there's a scenario where you don't need his arm in October.

0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:19.880
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely needs to show hey bat in October and so

0:04:21.720 --> 0:04:24.400
<v Speaker 1>and obviously you'd like to have his arm too. Yeah,

0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:26.440
<v Speaker 1>But whatever they need to do to keep him healthy,

0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:30.400
<v Speaker 1>as healthy as possible so that he doesn't run himself

0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:33.640
<v Speaker 1>into the ground in the regular season so he can

0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:33.919
<v Speaker 1>have that.

0:04:34.000 --> 0:04:35.560
<v Speaker 3>Juice in October, that's what they're gonna do.

0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:39.120
<v Speaker 1>And if that's a narrative, great, But yeah, I mean

0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:41.560
<v Speaker 1>seems like the day off yesterday.

0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:45.000
<v Speaker 3>Definitely looks like it helped him.

0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:47.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, just give him a little bit of a rest

0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:48.800
<v Speaker 2>here and there. If that's the plan, you know, if

0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:52.360
<v Speaker 2>you don't need to give him the ten or potentially

0:04:52.400 --> 0:04:54.440
<v Speaker 2>because he is a two way player, the fifteen day

0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:58.080
<v Speaker 2>al stint. If it's once a week, maybe once every

0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:00.479
<v Speaker 2>ten days, just give him that day off to to

0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:03.080
<v Speaker 2>keep the knee a little more fresh, you know, help

0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:06.880
<v Speaker 2>with the maintenance. I'm okay with that, because again twice

0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:09.120
<v Speaker 2>in the last i think seven days, we have seen

0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:13.120
<v Speaker 2>showhy a day after, you know, having a game off,

0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:16.560
<v Speaker 2>just just absolutely crank the ball. Sticking with the lineup.

0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:19.560
<v Speaker 2>Part of this had a little bit of dialogue in

0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:23.520
<v Speaker 2>all Dodgers text chat with you and Kevin not the

0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:28.360
<v Speaker 2>a lineup running out there against Ranger Suarez, Miguel Rojas

0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:31.400
<v Speaker 2>ruffling some feathers with our friend Kevin Skinner as he

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 2>bats third, first time, they said in the broadcast, first

0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:37.479
<v Speaker 2>time miggi Row hit third in a lineup since he

0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:41.440
<v Speaker 2>was twelve. Apparently promptly hits into a double play in

0:05:41.520 --> 0:05:45.560
<v Speaker 2>his first at bat. Miggi Row hitting third and going

0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:47.960
<v Speaker 2>over four is not the reason the Dodgers lost this game.

0:05:49.040 --> 0:05:52.120
<v Speaker 2>Obviously he did not allow all of those runs, but yeah,

0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:55.880
<v Speaker 2>that was part of the that story of the early

0:05:56.040 --> 0:05:57.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, not so much a white flag, but it's

0:05:57.600 --> 0:05:59.640
<v Speaker 2>a like you said, it's a type of punt game

0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:03.159
<v Speaker 2>where they put enough you know, runs on the board.

0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:05.120
<v Speaker 2>We will try to find a way to win this game,

0:06:05.120 --> 0:06:09.680
<v Speaker 2>but let's see if we can score first. And they

0:06:09.880 --> 0:06:11.960
<v Speaker 2>I guess, I mean they got to Ranger Swars. He

0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:14.719
<v Speaker 2>they did get him, you know, out of the game

0:06:14.800 --> 0:06:18.120
<v Speaker 2>in the fifth inning. You know, threw a lot of pitches,

0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:20.360
<v Speaker 2>and that's been the thing with this team. We saw

0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:22.200
<v Speaker 2>him get to Cole. And I'm not gonna say that,

0:06:22.600 --> 0:06:24.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, Ranger Swars is in the same breath as

0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:29.440
<v Speaker 2>Garrett Cole or Cam Schlitzer or Zach Wheeler or whatever.

0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:31.120
<v Speaker 2>But to tell he's a good pitcher. He's been an

0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:33.279
<v Speaker 2>All Star in the past, has you know, solid era

0:06:33.480 --> 0:06:35.960
<v Speaker 2>this year. To get him out in the fifth inning,

0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:38.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's part of the good part of the

0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:40.760
<v Speaker 2>the positives that you have to grasp for in this game,

0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:42.080
<v Speaker 2>I would say that's one of them.

0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, first game of the series and pitchers who will

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:53.520
<v Speaker 1>be on the rosters tomorrow and the next day. The

0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:56.560
<v Speaker 1>Red Sox had to use a lot more relief pitcher

0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:59.840
<v Speaker 1>pitches than the Dodgers did today. I saw some of

0:06:59.880 --> 0:07:03.080
<v Speaker 1>the chat saying that Nicole Irvin did his job. Somebody

0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:05.760
<v Speaker 1>else took exception of that, said his job has helped

0:07:05.839 --> 0:07:06.840
<v Speaker 1>him win and he sucked.

0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:08.560
<v Speaker 3>But no, his job today.

0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it would have been nice if he could have

0:07:11.160 --> 0:07:13.600
<v Speaker 1>helped the team win, but his job was to go

0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:16.160
<v Speaker 1>out there and throw a hundred pitches. That's what he's

0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:19.080
<v Speaker 1>been doing in the minors, not quite one hundred. I

0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:24.080
<v Speaker 1>think his max this year was ninety four in Triple A. Yeah,

0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:26.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean he's a stretched out starting pitcher and they's okay,

0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:31.080
<v Speaker 1>go go be that for us. And you know, I

0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:36.360
<v Speaker 1>like with Rojas batting third, I was the way I

0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:41.960
<v Speaker 1>look at it. No, I obviously it's not the best

0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:46.360
<v Speaker 1>strategy to try to win the game. Even though Rojas

0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:51.240
<v Speaker 1>does hit lefties well this year, but he's still mcguil Rojas.

0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:54.680
<v Speaker 1>But for me, you know, Rojas is going to start

0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:57.840
<v Speaker 1>one or two games a week and probably zero games

0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:01.880
<v Speaker 1>in October. And so when you have a twelve game

0:08:01.960 --> 0:08:06.400
<v Speaker 1>lead on July thirty, first, you're you're thinking about October.

0:08:06.440 --> 0:08:09.160
<v Speaker 1>And so you know that Mickey Rose playing this game.

0:08:09.880 --> 0:08:12.280
<v Speaker 1>I think he's your last thought on where should he

0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:14.320
<v Speaker 1>bat in the lineup. Everybody else You're like, okay, well

0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:17.000
<v Speaker 1>we're you know, Mookie, where do we want him? And

0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Tucker we're trying to get him right again. And Tao's

0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:22.400
<v Speaker 1>had a good couple of games after we dropped him down.

0:08:22.440 --> 0:08:24.400
<v Speaker 1>To move on, you go through all that stuff for

0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:26.840
<v Speaker 1>the people who are actually probably going to be starting

0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:30.880
<v Speaker 1>games for you in October. Eliezer Alfonso easy to pencil

0:08:30.920 --> 0:08:33.199
<v Speaker 1>in in the nine hole everybody else. You know, you

0:08:33.280 --> 0:08:34.960
<v Speaker 1>kind of figure out where you want and then you say, okay,

0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:37.120
<v Speaker 1>and then we have Miguel Rojas. What spot in the

0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:40.120
<v Speaker 1>lineup has left? Okay, it's third, That's where Rojas is batting,

0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:43.680
<v Speaker 1>where normally it would have been Max Muntsey or Tommy

0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:47.640
<v Speaker 1>Edmund or whoever. But for today it was Miguel Rojas.

0:08:47.679 --> 0:08:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Because the Dodgers came into the game with a twelve

0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:53.720
<v Speaker 1>game lead on July thirty first, and you know, you

0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:56.000
<v Speaker 1>can feel bad for the fans who paid good money

0:08:56.000 --> 0:08:59.640
<v Speaker 1>to be at that game. I maybe maybe they felt

0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:02.199
<v Speaker 1>good to do this knowing that it wouldn't be as

0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:04.559
<v Speaker 1>not as many people there at the game because it

0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:08.880
<v Speaker 1>was Kyle Tucker babblehead night, But you know, they got

0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:10.760
<v Speaker 1>the fans who paid good money to be there, got

0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:12.719
<v Speaker 1>to see a show. Hey, tony home run, got to

0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:14.600
<v Speaker 1>see another three hit game from Freddy Freeman.

0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:15.120
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:20.200
<v Speaker 1>And the fact is this kind of strategy is why

0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:24.440
<v Speaker 1>the Dodgers give their fans more wins than pretty much

0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:28.319
<v Speaker 1>any other team every year, because they're playing big pictures.

0:09:28.320 --> 0:09:30.520
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, if you look at just tonight, sucks for

0:09:30.520 --> 0:09:32.280
<v Speaker 1>the people who paid to be there tonight because they

0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:34.880
<v Speaker 1>got to see six innings of something named Cole Irvin.

0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:37.920
<v Speaker 1>But if they go to another game, there's a better

0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:40.120
<v Speaker 1>chance to Dodgers win that game because of games like tonight.

0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:43.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and again too, he did the job he was

0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:45.640
<v Speaker 2>supposed to do, Like you said, go out there, throw

0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:49.080
<v Speaker 2>throw a lot of innings, or at least, you know,

0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:52.480
<v Speaker 2>don't don't force yourself. I mean, if it was a

0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:53.960
<v Speaker 2>little bit different, if he didn't give up a two

0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:58.439
<v Speaker 2>run homer into that seventh inning, you know, chances are

0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:02.600
<v Speaker 2>maybe Dave pulled some different levers to try to win

0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:05.120
<v Speaker 2>that game. The Dodgers did have a lead in that one,

0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:08.120
<v Speaker 2>So if it wasn't like so immediate, maybe you've tried

0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:10.920
<v Speaker 2>to find a way to protect that lead, but it

0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:14.800
<v Speaker 2>just it became it got so unraveled so fast, and

0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:17.320
<v Speaker 2>that's where you're just like, all right, listen, we're okay.

0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:21.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm okay. Occasionally seeing the team wave the white flag,

0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:25.120
<v Speaker 2>and you know, the first time here on Dodgers territory

0:10:25.160 --> 0:10:27.680
<v Speaker 2>what we had me and Alana had the sit down

0:10:28.000 --> 0:10:31.920
<v Speaker 2>with Dave Roberts. It's because we questioned the white flag

0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:34.319
<v Speaker 2>and and kind of a punt game. Of course, we

0:10:34.320 --> 0:10:37.200
<v Speaker 2>were questioning a punt game or the feeling of a

0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:41.240
<v Speaker 2>punt game. In the twenty twenty four postseason, that game three,

0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:44.000
<v Speaker 2>I think it was against the Padres. There the Walker

0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:46.880
<v Speaker 2>Buehler game, people being really upset, why does Walker Buehler

0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:50.520
<v Speaker 2>being left in this game? Buehler ended up being pretty

0:10:50.559 --> 0:10:53.080
<v Speaker 2>decent after that. I think it was a Grand Slam

0:10:53.480 --> 0:10:55.800
<v Speaker 2>and then the Dodgers went out and Rattle.

0:10:55.920 --> 0:10:58.680
<v Speaker 1>The Grandson was by Teo to get the Dodgers back

0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:01.599
<v Speaker 1>in the game. It was all the crazy defense of

0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:05.680
<v Speaker 1>Freddie hitting Machada with the throw to second and Mickey

0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:10.000
<v Speaker 1>row like trying to take it himself. That was the

0:11:10.080 --> 0:11:10.839
<v Speaker 1>year before.

0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:14.000
<v Speaker 2>There was there was a Tatisse homer in there. I remember,

0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:14.839
<v Speaker 2>you know, for Na.

0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:17.160
<v Speaker 1>There was, Yeah, but that was there was a I

0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:18.840
<v Speaker 1>think it was even a solo homer that inning.

0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:19.000
<v Speaker 3>Bit.

0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:21.320
<v Speaker 2>It was just I think that was the last time

0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:21.960
<v Speaker 2>they scored.

0:11:22.640 --> 0:11:24.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yes, they didn't score again.

0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:27.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but again, like there are times you got to

0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.040
<v Speaker 2>know when to hold him, know when to fold them.

0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:31.120
<v Speaker 2>And and this was a game to kind of walk

0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:33.040
<v Speaker 2>away and cole irv and he's going to be celebrated

0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:36.720
<v Speaker 2>in that clubhouse going out there over one hundred pitches.

0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:37.439
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he would have preferred to not give up what

0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:43.560
<v Speaker 2>he was the final line six runs. He would prefer

0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:46.560
<v Speaker 2>to have not done that and maybe left that game

0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:50.400
<v Speaker 2>feeling good, just allowing Will Kleins two runs with the

0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:53.959
<v Speaker 2>Freddie error. But that's not how this one shook out.

0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:58.319
<v Speaker 2>We got a chat here BMW one twenty eight racers.

0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:01.400
<v Speaker 2>Seems like one game out of each is a punt

0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:06.360
<v Speaker 2>total BS And you know, I'll put the record back

0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:09.320
<v Speaker 2>on the screen here. As you said, Dodgers have an

0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:14.119
<v Speaker 2>eleven game lead in in the NL West. You you

0:12:14.280 --> 0:12:16.680
<v Speaker 2>still have the most wins in baseball at sixty nine.

0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:21.360
<v Speaker 2>Nice and they're doing that. They've done that without Tyler

0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:24.280
<v Speaker 2>Glasnow for a majority of the majority of the season.

0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:28.439
<v Speaker 2>Same you have three innings all year out of Blake Snell.

0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:31.440
<v Speaker 2>You know Eric Lauer, you saved from the scrap heap,

0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:34.280
<v Speaker 2>and he turned into something. You know, if you're able

0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:38.360
<v Speaker 2>to punt a game each series, as you know BMW

0:12:38.480 --> 0:12:42.080
<v Speaker 2>Racer is suggesting, and still win each series, I don't

0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:44.880
<v Speaker 2>care like I take that all day. But they're on

0:12:44.880 --> 0:12:47.360
<v Speaker 2>pace for one hundred and three wins this year. I

0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:51.040
<v Speaker 2>don't need to see them break the mariners one hundred

0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:54.040
<v Speaker 2>and sixteen win record. I don't care about that. I

0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:56.559
<v Speaker 2>don't need. I don't need to see show Hey win

0:12:56.600 --> 0:12:58.560
<v Speaker 2>an MVP or Cy Young. I don't need. Alls I

0:12:58.600 --> 0:13:01.640
<v Speaker 2>need is another World Series, the last one that's going

0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:03.320
<v Speaker 2>to be given out in a little while here at

0:13:03.360 --> 0:13:05.880
<v Speaker 2>the end of twenty twenty six. That's all I care about.

0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:06.280
<v Speaker 3>Jeff.

0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, if you think the Dodgers punt one game a series,

0:13:10.800 --> 0:13:14.839
<v Speaker 1>you and I have drastically different definitions of punt. I

0:13:14.880 --> 0:13:17.840
<v Speaker 1>think your definition of punt is more like the definition

0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:21.839
<v Speaker 1>of lose, because so far, since you also break, they

0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:25.040
<v Speaker 1>have lost exactly one game each series, and they've won

0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:27.800
<v Speaker 1>exactly two games each series, and they still have a

0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:31.079
<v Speaker 1>chance to do that in this series. Yeah, most of

0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:34.679
<v Speaker 1>the time, it's not punk games. It's sometimes just lose.

0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:37.120
<v Speaker 1>Today it was you know, if you want to call

0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:39.600
<v Speaker 1>it a punt, it was definitely a big picture game.

0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:43.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this, I would say, is a punt. This is

0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:46.680
<v Speaker 2>a white flag, this is you know, hey, this is

0:13:46.720 --> 0:13:49.800
<v Speaker 2>house money. A type of game. I would say.

0:13:50.520 --> 0:13:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the punting happened when they left Cole Irvin in.

0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:56.079
<v Speaker 1>You know, they could have pulled him after the two

0:13:56.120 --> 0:13:59.040
<v Speaker 1>ren homer it's still five to four, let's go for it.

0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:02.880
<v Speaker 1>But you know they they went for it yesterday against

0:14:02.880 --> 0:14:05.520
<v Speaker 1>the Mariners to make sure they locked down that win,

0:14:06.080 --> 0:14:09.520
<v Speaker 1>knowing that it would mean today they needed one hundred

0:14:09.559 --> 0:14:13.120
<v Speaker 1>pitches from cooler Evan And and so I think the

0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:17.400
<v Speaker 1>fans who were there yesterday enjoyed hearing the trumpets, enjoyed

0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:20.960
<v Speaker 1>hearing Randy Newman. And and you know, this is the

0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:26.040
<v Speaker 1>price you pay. No team wins every game, and it's

0:14:26.680 --> 0:14:30.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, this is a major tangent. But it's why

0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:34.880
<v Speaker 1>I never I never bought Pete Rose's stupid. I only

0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:41.080
<v Speaker 1>bet on my team to win or whatever, because unless

0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:45.760
<v Speaker 1>you bet the same amount every single game, the fact

0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:50.040
<v Speaker 1>is you are still impacting things because sometimes you try

0:14:50.040 --> 0:14:52.640
<v Speaker 1>hard another games and if you've got five thousand bucks

0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:54.760
<v Speaker 1>on one game, you got to bring in Rob Dibble

0:14:54.840 --> 0:14:59.600
<v Speaker 1>instead of, you know, a lesser reliever. And so it

0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:01.440
<v Speaker 1>was a obdubble. By the way, was it the Red's

0:15:01.480 --> 0:15:04.880
<v Speaker 1>Closer back then? In case anybody is not as old

0:15:04.880 --> 0:15:07.600
<v Speaker 1>as me, it's crazy, a little bit crazy.

0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:11.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, uh kind of old school closer crazy.

0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:16.000
<v Speaker 1>But anyways, continue And so my point is, yeah, teams

0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:19.240
<v Speaker 1>have to weigh the big picture and say, okay, we

0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:23.720
<v Speaker 1>can't try it try our hardest every game. From from

0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:26.720
<v Speaker 1>that aspect of you know, Edwin Diaz and Tanner Scott

0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:27.680
<v Speaker 1>can't pitch every game.

0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:33.000
<v Speaker 3>Did even the hitters can't play every game.

0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:35.200
<v Speaker 1>Some of them want to and some of them come

0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:37.760
<v Speaker 1>close to it, but you know, guys need days off.

0:15:38.280 --> 0:15:42.480
<v Speaker 1>And so the way you give yourself the best chance

0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:46.000
<v Speaker 1>to win as many games as possible is to have

0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:48.400
<v Speaker 1>these kind of big picture games where you say, okay,

0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:51.320
<v Speaker 1>we're resetting our bullpen tonight. The only relievers the Dodgers

0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:55.600
<v Speaker 1>use tonight, ed Garter Enriquez for one inning will climb

0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:57.440
<v Speaker 1>for what was supposed to be two innings, but he

0:15:57.520 --> 0:16:02.800
<v Speaker 1>will climb it and uh, and then Phillips for two

0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:07.320
<v Speaker 1>thirds of and so no, it must couldn't have been

0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:08.800
<v Speaker 1>a full inning. I think it was two thirds of

0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:10.960
<v Speaker 1>an inning. Yeah, it came in with one out in

0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:14.040
<v Speaker 1>the ninth inning, you know, and so that means that

0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:17.680
<v Speaker 1>the other however, many what six relievers in their bullpen

0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:21.440
<v Speaker 1>didn't pitch today, which means they're probably all available tomorrow

0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:24.480
<v Speaker 1>and the Dodgers can now, you know, with Yamamoto on

0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:28.960
<v Speaker 1>the mound, ideally Yama motives tomorrow, right, yes, yeah, so

0:16:29.040 --> 0:16:33.200
<v Speaker 1>Yamamoto hopefully gives them seven innings and helps reset that that.

0:16:33.280 --> 0:16:35.120
<v Speaker 1>You know, if the offense can give them a big lead,

0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:37.760
<v Speaker 1>then they can, let you know, one of the lesser

0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:39.920
<v Speaker 1>guys finish it out or they go to the closest

0:16:39.960 --> 0:16:44.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, play. But either way, hopefully after tomorrow you

0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:47.040
<v Speaker 1>have a handful of relievers who haven't pitched in two days,

0:16:47.200 --> 0:16:49.600
<v Speaker 1>and you got a really good chance to get a

0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:52.600
<v Speaker 1>win even with them at she In pitching on Sunday.

0:16:52.840 --> 0:16:54.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and win the series.

0:16:54.880 --> 0:16:57.240
<v Speaker 1>And if you can win the series, you know, that

0:16:57.400 --> 0:16:59.840
<v Speaker 1>was the goal today was trying to set ourselves up

0:16:59.880 --> 0:17:03.240
<v Speaker 1>to win the series, knowing that we've got a six

0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:05.399
<v Speaker 1>man rotation and only five men to fill it.

0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:07.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and it's gonna be like that still for a

0:17:07.840 --> 0:17:10.000
<v Speaker 2>little bit longer. We got the news today. You know,

0:17:10.000 --> 0:17:12.280
<v Speaker 2>Blake Snell is going to go out and make one

0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:15.200
<v Speaker 2>more minor league rehab start next year or next year,

0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:17.240
<v Speaker 2>next week before recha.

0:17:17.359 --> 0:17:19.880
<v Speaker 1>He'll probably make a rehab start next year too. Let's

0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:21.560
<v Speaker 1>be honest, this Blake Snow we're talking about.

0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:22.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I would put a couple of bucks on it.

0:17:23.000 --> 0:17:25.080
<v Speaker 2>But he's gonna make one more start there and then

0:17:25.119 --> 0:17:27.199
<v Speaker 2>if all goes well, gets up to five innings, he

0:17:27.240 --> 0:17:32.200
<v Speaker 2>should be ready to rejoin the starting rotation. What is

0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:35.080
<v Speaker 2>that second week when I'm gone on vacation. He'll be

0:17:35.160 --> 0:17:39.120
<v Speaker 2>back in August. There, So you're starting to get better there,

0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:43.680
<v Speaker 2>Tyler Glas, now throw to hitters again like it's it's July.

0:17:44.359 --> 0:17:47.040
<v Speaker 2>That's that's you know where it is right now. That's

0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:50.800
<v Speaker 2>the the sucky part of baseball. Sometimes you are going

0:17:50.880 --> 0:17:54.359
<v Speaker 2>to lose some games. There's a ten dollars super chat

0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:57.840
<v Speaker 2>in here from Roboito who says a lot of angry

0:17:57.840 --> 0:18:00.280
<v Speaker 2>Dodger fans in the chat, Dodgers are gonna be fine.

0:18:00.840 --> 0:18:03.520
<v Speaker 2>The channeling his inner Alana, it's going to be great.

0:18:23.640 --> 0:18:26.400
<v Speaker 2>good and the ugly. I do want to talk about

0:18:26.400 --> 0:18:28.000

0:19:37.320 --> 0:19:39.720
<v Speaker 2>talked about the good, talked about the ugly. I want

0:19:39.720 --> 0:19:44.679
<v Speaker 2>to talk about the bad. Not a segue. We do

0:19:44.760 --> 0:19:47.680
<v Speaker 2>have a super chat from our friend Richie four nine

0:19:47.760 --> 0:19:50.200
<v Speaker 2>nine uses. Not only did they wave the white flag

0:19:50.320 --> 0:19:53.439
<v Speaker 2>roberts Rand's underwear up the flagpole, this punt game went

0:19:53.480 --> 0:19:57.280
<v Speaker 2>hand in hand with Kyle Tucker's Bobblehead. I know Richie

0:19:57.280 --> 0:20:00.680
<v Speaker 2>is happy that this happened on tucker Bobblehead night. Tuck

0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:03.639
<v Speaker 2>had missed, you know, had some opportunities with runners in

0:20:03.720 --> 0:20:07.480
<v Speaker 2>scoring position. Just ducks on the pond in general continues

0:20:07.520 --> 0:20:11.520
<v Speaker 2>to be just absolutely abysmal at Dodger Stadium this year.

0:20:11.560 --> 0:20:14.920
<v Speaker 2>I think before the game Davesse had the numbers. He's

0:20:14.960 --> 0:20:17.240
<v Speaker 2>in like two oh three. I mean, obviously anywhere would

0:20:17.240 --> 0:20:19.440
<v Speaker 2>have the numbers two o three Dodger Stadium till four

0:20:19.760 --> 0:20:23.040
<v Speaker 2>Dodger Stadium, and he's hitting two sixty five on the road.

0:20:23.480 --> 0:20:27.240
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I mean not much. I guess to add

0:20:27.240 --> 0:20:27.720
<v Speaker 2>to that.

0:20:28.400 --> 0:20:32.399
<v Speaker 3>No, that that inning when he struck out looking was

0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:36.360
<v Speaker 3>second and third, yeah, and it was pitch yeah, but.

0:20:36.400 --> 0:20:39.080
<v Speaker 1>You got to put the ball in play there and

0:20:39.200 --> 0:20:42.159
<v Speaker 1>or at least strike out swinging, you know. And then

0:20:42.160 --> 0:20:44.040
<v Speaker 1>he gets a base hit later his next time up,

0:20:44.080 --> 0:20:47.000
<v Speaker 1>so could he use that last time? And then after

0:20:47.040 --> 0:20:50.000
<v Speaker 1>an intentional walk to Max Munsey, then Lazer Alfonso comes

0:20:50.080 --> 0:20:54.879
<v Speaker 1>up and on ball five takes he takes ball three

0:20:55.040 --> 0:20:58.440
<v Speaker 1>to fill the count. Yeah, after five pitches out of

0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:01.280
<v Speaker 1>the strike so it was a full count. It's bases loaded,

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:06.640
<v Speaker 1>two outs, and show heo Tony on deck. And these

0:21:06.680 --> 0:21:09.600
<v Speaker 1>pitches weren't close pitches that he was swinging out of

0:21:09.600 --> 0:21:13.320
<v Speaker 1>the zone. They were six eight inches outside. Eric greg

0:21:13.320 --> 0:21:17.560
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't have called those pitches strikes, it was you know,

0:21:20.119 --> 0:21:24.480
<v Speaker 1>he might have and he ends up grounding out in

0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:27.240
<v Speaker 1>the inning when he should have walked in a run

0:21:27.480 --> 0:21:29.919
<v Speaker 1>to bring up shoe Heo Tony with bases loaded, like

0:21:30.440 --> 0:21:33.159
<v Speaker 1>when you're betting ninth, you know, your job is just

0:21:33.160 --> 0:21:35.199
<v Speaker 1>to get the bat in show hey, Toni's hands to

0:21:35.280 --> 0:21:39.200
<v Speaker 1>turn over that lineup, and I you know, Alfonso did

0:21:39.240 --> 0:21:42.760
<v Speaker 1>have an RBA single earlier in the game. He you know,

0:21:43.080 --> 0:21:47.240
<v Speaker 1>I like Eliezer Alfonso. I think that he's as far

0:21:47.280 --> 0:21:52.720
<v Speaker 1>as backup catchers go, he's better than Charles Entertainment Robinson.

0:21:54.040 --> 0:21:59.240
<v Speaker 2>You know, he's Yeah, he is what he is, but

0:22:00.320 --> 0:22:00.840
<v Speaker 2>up a little bit.

0:22:01.440 --> 0:22:01.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:22:01.960 --> 0:22:05.800
<v Speaker 1>But that that so that whole inning and we were like, well,

0:22:05.800 --> 0:22:07.520
<v Speaker 1>maybe it won't matter. The Dodgers already had the lead

0:22:07.560 --> 0:22:10.000
<v Speaker 1>at that point, but then it immediately mattered because it

0:22:10.040 --> 0:22:12.480
<v Speaker 1>was the next inning that the Red Sox scored a

0:22:12.480 --> 0:22:14.800
<v Speaker 1>bunch of runs and you know, would have liked to

0:22:14.800 --> 0:22:17.160
<v Speaker 1>attack on a few there. You know, the the run

0:22:17.200 --> 0:22:20.680
<v Speaker 1>that the Dodgers didn't get because a Keyk's bad base

0:22:20.760 --> 0:22:22.879
<v Speaker 1>running earlier in the game that was immediately followed by

0:22:22.920 --> 0:22:25.479
<v Speaker 1>shohe a Tony home run, you know, should have been

0:22:25.480 --> 0:22:27.200
<v Speaker 1>a three run homer instead of a two run homer.

0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:31.119
<v Speaker 1>All sorts of little things like that where the Dodgers

0:22:31.200 --> 0:22:36.280
<v Speaker 1>just left left points on the board as they say

0:22:36.359 --> 0:22:37.840
<v Speaker 1>in other sports.

0:22:38.040 --> 0:22:45.000
<v Speaker 3>Or or Aaron left runs unscored. It was. It was

0:22:45.040 --> 0:22:46.120
<v Speaker 3>not the cleanest game.

0:22:46.400 --> 0:22:50.040
<v Speaker 1>And then earlier in the game the base hit that

0:22:50.080 --> 0:22:55.200
<v Speaker 1>should have been you know, handled by Freddy Freeman, that scored.

0:22:54.800 --> 0:22:57.639
<v Speaker 3>Two runs and that was one run anyway.

0:22:57.760 --> 0:23:00.840
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, and that was gonna be the you know again,

0:23:00.880 --> 0:23:02.760
<v Speaker 2>we talked about the good, the bad, or the ugly,

0:23:02.800 --> 0:23:04.840
<v Speaker 2>and that was the bad. Just not the cleanest baseball

0:23:04.840 --> 0:23:08.040
<v Speaker 2>we've ever seen. And and it feels like we're having

0:23:08.200 --> 0:23:11.840
<v Speaker 2>a few more of those of recent vintage than we're

0:23:11.960 --> 0:23:14.800
<v Speaker 2>used to. Uh, you know, whatever, tot get him out

0:23:14.840 --> 0:23:17.959
<v Speaker 2>of the way now. Uh, but yeah, you're seeing some errors, uh,

0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:21.600
<v Speaker 2>brain farts, bad decisions. You know, maybe both of those

0:23:22.000 --> 0:23:24.239
<v Speaker 2>are are kik a you saw you know, I mean,

0:23:24.280 --> 0:23:26.359
<v Speaker 2>people were real upset a couple of days ago about

0:23:26.760 --> 0:23:33.160
<v Speaker 2>Tucker ignoring Dino's you know send sign uh didn't score there. Yeah,

0:23:33.200 --> 0:23:36.000
<v Speaker 2>it's it's weird, and you're you're seeing the reaction for Dave.

0:23:36.080 --> 0:23:40.800
<v Speaker 2>Dave is not a happy camper watching uh, some of

0:23:40.840 --> 0:23:44.280
<v Speaker 2>the recent play and and you know, we're not anywhere

0:23:44.320 --> 0:23:47.440
<v Speaker 2>near some sort of closed door meeting type of situation

0:23:47.600 --> 0:23:49.680
<v Speaker 2>with how the team is playing. You know, you don't,

0:23:50.000 --> 0:23:52.680
<v Speaker 2>you don't, you're not the best team in baseball and

0:23:52.680 --> 0:23:54.880
<v Speaker 2>and go go out there and have a closed door

0:23:54.920 --> 0:23:58.560
<v Speaker 2>meeting or whatever. But still I think it's like, hey,

0:23:58.680 --> 0:24:01.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, let's let's let's lock get the FN sort

0:24:01.440 --> 0:24:04.920
<v Speaker 2>of thing here because we haven't just haven't seen consistent

0:24:05.400 --> 0:24:08.760
<v Speaker 2>clean baseball over like the course of you know, a

0:24:08.840 --> 0:24:10.840
<v Speaker 2>week and then build on another week, and then build

0:24:10.920 --> 0:24:12.720
<v Speaker 2>on another week. That's that's kind of what I'm feeling

0:24:12.800 --> 0:24:14.639
<v Speaker 2>right now. It's it's weird to see this team doing that.

0:24:15.600 --> 0:24:18.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's the dog days of summer. You know.

0:24:18.480 --> 0:24:22.399
<v Speaker 1>I would guess that most good teams go through a

0:24:22.440 --> 0:24:26.800
<v Speaker 1>stretch like this every season. I always think back to

0:24:26.880 --> 0:24:29.760
<v Speaker 1>my old nineteen eighty eight Dodgers video through the Eyes

0:24:29.760 --> 0:24:33.320
<v Speaker 1>of a Winner, and you got Glenn Fry singing soul

0:24:33.359 --> 0:24:36.399
<v Speaker 1>searching during like May and June when it's just like

0:24:36.520 --> 0:24:40.399
<v Speaker 1>you know, it was, it was rough, and you know

0:24:40.840 --> 0:24:43.680
<v Speaker 1>that team ended up okay. I don't know if you

0:24:43.720 --> 0:24:47.480
<v Speaker 1>remember last year, people spent a lot of the year

0:24:47.520 --> 0:24:51.680
<v Speaker 1>angry last year at the Dodgers, you know, punting games

0:24:51.840 --> 0:24:55.000
<v Speaker 1>and this and that and Dave Roberts being an idiot

0:24:55.040 --> 0:24:57.640
<v Speaker 1>and blah blah blah blah, and last year turned it out.

0:24:57.680 --> 0:24:58.160
<v Speaker 3>Okay too.

0:24:58.480 --> 0:25:02.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you it's just one of those nights where you

0:25:02.359 --> 0:25:03.720
<v Speaker 1>just have to have a big picture of you and

0:25:03.760 --> 0:25:06.280
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to enjoy it obviously. You know, it's

0:25:06.320 --> 0:25:08.560
<v Speaker 1>always more fun when the Dodgers win a baseball game

0:25:08.800 --> 0:25:10.280
<v Speaker 1>than when they lose a baseball game.

0:25:10.760 --> 0:25:12.760
<v Speaker 2>Uh do you have sources on that?

0:25:13.920 --> 0:25:15.439
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? Literally me.

0:25:17.160 --> 0:25:22.280
<v Speaker 1>But you know, like I said earlier, your chances of

0:25:22.320 --> 0:25:27.000
<v Speaker 1>seeing more Dodger wins are higher because of games like this.

0:25:27.600 --> 0:25:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Because now they have arrested bullpen for the rest of

0:25:29.560 --> 0:25:33.040
<v Speaker 1>this series. Their chances of winning the series are better

0:25:33.240 --> 0:25:36.040
<v Speaker 1>today than they would have been if they had brought

0:25:36.080 --> 0:25:39.440
<v Speaker 1>in relievers in the seventh after the two run homer,

0:25:40.080 --> 0:25:41.640
<v Speaker 1>because I don't know, if you know, Dodgers didn't score

0:25:41.680 --> 0:25:43.920
<v Speaker 1>again anyway, and so you can chase that win.

0:25:44.680 --> 0:25:47.440
<v Speaker 3>But chances are what happens is you.

0:25:47.440 --> 0:25:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Lose the game anyway and aren't in as good a

0:25:50.040 --> 0:25:51.200
<v Speaker 1>position for tomorrow.

0:25:51.200 --> 0:25:52.200
<v Speaker 3>In the next day, and.

0:25:52.119 --> 0:25:55.040
<v Speaker 2>To go back to that twenty twenty four NLDS game,

0:25:56.160 --> 0:25:58.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, Buehler kind of has to eat it a

0:25:58.520 --> 0:26:01.320
<v Speaker 2>little bit in that start, and yeah, it wasn't all

0:26:01.359 --> 0:26:03.120
<v Speaker 2>on him. That was also you know, as we mentioned,

0:26:03.160 --> 0:26:06.080
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of unclean baseball, but him eating a

0:26:06.119 --> 0:26:08.440
<v Speaker 2>few more innings set the team up for the success.

0:26:08.600 --> 0:26:11.680
<v Speaker 2>You know, they did a bullpen game for Game four,

0:26:12.320 --> 0:26:15.560
<v Speaker 2>very you know, highly questionable head scratcher, especially at that

0:26:15.600 --> 0:26:20.000
<v Speaker 2>time Dave Roberts, you know, kind of his his the

0:26:20.080 --> 0:26:23.080
<v Speaker 2>career view at that point was a little bit different

0:26:23.080 --> 0:26:25.560
<v Speaker 2>in twenty twenty four than it is now where he

0:26:25.680 --> 0:26:28.359
<v Speaker 2>is back to back World Series champion manager and three

0:26:28.400 --> 0:26:30.159
<v Speaker 2>times over and all of that. There were a lot

0:26:30.200 --> 0:26:32.399
<v Speaker 2>of questions about Dave and Kenny gets team over a

0:26:32.480 --> 0:26:34.960
<v Speaker 2>hump and all that. To be fair, twenty one we've

0:26:35.000 --> 0:26:38.560
<v Speaker 2>talked about it ad nauseum. The roster fell apart, they

0:26:38.600 --> 0:26:40.600
<v Speaker 2>got hurt. Twenty two to twenty three just were not

0:26:40.680 --> 0:26:44.600
<v Speaker 2>built for success on the pitching side. But again that

0:26:44.640 --> 0:26:46.520
<v Speaker 2>type of game, these type of games, they set you

0:26:46.640 --> 0:26:50.639
<v Speaker 2>up for success tomorrow, two days from now, maybe a

0:26:50.720 --> 0:26:51.359
<v Speaker 2>whole series.

0:26:52.640 --> 0:26:55.120
<v Speaker 1>And you can also look, yeah, you could also look

0:26:55.119 --> 0:26:57.640
<v Speaker 1>at game four of the twenty twenty four World Series.

0:26:58.520 --> 0:27:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, with Brent, the infamous Brent Honeywell game, the.

0:27:02.119 --> 0:27:03.000
<v Speaker 3>Brent Honeywell game.

0:27:03.080 --> 0:27:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, wait was that the Honeywell game that was one

0:27:05.840 --> 0:27:06.959
<v Speaker 2>of the Honeywell games.

0:27:07.080 --> 0:27:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so yeah, there was a Honeywell game against the

0:27:09.320 --> 0:27:09.840
<v Speaker 1>Mets too.

0:27:10.119 --> 0:27:13.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's the one that made him him yeah him.

0:27:13.640 --> 0:27:17.879
<v Speaker 1>At Daniel Hudson gives up four runs in one inning

0:27:18.359 --> 0:27:21.240
<v Speaker 1>and then Landon nat comes in and actually settles things

0:27:21.280 --> 0:27:23.800
<v Speaker 1>down a little bit, but but then so too little,

0:27:23.800 --> 0:27:25.880
<v Speaker 1>too late a little bit. And then Brett Honeywell comes

0:27:25.920 --> 0:27:29.680
<v Speaker 1>in and gives up five runs in one inning and

0:27:30.080 --> 0:27:31.840
<v Speaker 1>it's like, oh, Dodgers punted that game.

0:27:32.040 --> 0:27:34.680
<v Speaker 3>Yep. And then they won the World Series the next day,

0:27:35.040 --> 0:27:35.240
<v Speaker 3>you know.

0:27:35.400 --> 0:27:38.200
<v Speaker 2>And I know people don't like hearing this stuff. The

0:27:39.520 --> 0:27:42.000
<v Speaker 2>it's just one game, but it is. It sucks. It

0:27:42.040 --> 0:27:44.199
<v Speaker 2>was a crappy game, and it is. It is what

0:27:44.240 --> 0:27:46.680
<v Speaker 2>it is. For now, we will all endure and survive

0:27:47.320 --> 0:27:52.119
<v Speaker 2>another ten dollars super chat from Roboito until and before

0:27:52.119 --> 0:27:54.320
<v Speaker 2>we wrap up here, and then we'll continue the conversation

0:27:54.440 --> 0:27:57.520
<v Speaker 2>with bullpen talk and other just random news and nuggets

0:27:57.560 --> 0:28:00.960
<v Speaker 2>of the day. Ten bucks. I believing Kyle Tucker, the

0:28:01.000 --> 0:28:03.160
<v Speaker 2>man hester just to a new city, has a new baby.

0:28:03.359 --> 0:28:05.960
<v Speaker 2>All his family in Florida. Once he settled down, settles down,

0:28:06.000 --> 0:28:08.760
<v Speaker 2>he'll be all right, be patient, Dodgers fans, and then

0:28:08.800 --> 0:28:13.479
<v Speaker 2>the lol. So now I question the sincerity of the

0:28:13.520 --> 0:28:19.280
<v Speaker 2>super chat, but we appreciate it either way. It's August.

0:28:19.800 --> 0:28:21.800
<v Speaker 2>You gotta have it figured out by now. You gotta

0:28:21.840 --> 0:28:23.560
<v Speaker 2>lock in by now a little at least, get a

0:28:23.560 --> 0:28:25.480
<v Speaker 2>little closer to having it locked in by now, but

0:28:26.359 --> 0:28:27.200
<v Speaker 2>not just talk.

0:28:28.040 --> 0:28:31.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well that Tucker got on base twice today, Like, yeah,

0:28:31.800 --> 0:28:33.280
<v Speaker 1>he had a bat at bat with runners in the

0:28:33.280 --> 0:28:39.360
<v Speaker 1>scoring position. But yeah, overall, the offense did a decent

0:28:39.440 --> 0:28:41.720
<v Speaker 1>job early in the game and then didn't do much

0:28:41.760 --> 0:28:46.160
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the game. And but that wasn't just Tucker,

0:28:46.200 --> 0:28:50.160
<v Speaker 1>like you said, it wasn't even mostly Tucker. Tucker got

0:28:50.200 --> 0:28:53.440
<v Speaker 1>on base two more times than several guys, several of

0:28:53.480 --> 0:28:54.160
<v Speaker 1>his teammates.

0:28:55.360 --> 0:28:57.560
<v Speaker 3>It's yeah, but he did.

0:28:57.400 --> 0:29:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Have that the high profile strikeout looking terrible at that

0:29:01.040 --> 0:29:04.040
<v Speaker 1>when even just a fly ball gets a run in. Uh,

0:29:04.360 --> 0:29:09.200
<v Speaker 1>And that's that's that's a real thing. But Tucker's gonna

0:29:09.200 --> 0:29:13.880
<v Speaker 1>have to get really hot for people to stop hyper

0:29:13.920 --> 0:29:16.400
<v Speaker 1>focusing on every single little failure.

0:29:17.200 --> 0:29:21.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I don't know. This season could be well

0:29:22.400 --> 0:29:24.760
<v Speaker 2>the regular season could be a wash, you know, but

0:29:24.880 --> 0:29:27.640
<v Speaker 2>whatever I mean, Mookie changed the narrative last year around

0:29:27.640 --> 0:29:30.720
<v Speaker 2>this time, maybe maybe Tuck can do the same. You know.

0:29:30.800 --> 0:29:34.160
<v Speaker 2>It's it's a whole What have you done for us lately?

0:29:35.200 --> 0:29:36.760
<v Speaker 2>We've got a lot more things to talk about. We're

0:29:36.800 --> 0:29:38.360

<v Speaker 2>things about Will Klein. We we didn't really mention the brock
