1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,840
Speaker 1: Just one of those stretches during the season that every team,

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:05,760
Speaker 1: no matter how talented or how big a payroll or

3
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,720
Speaker 1: how many MVPs you employ, you're going to go through.

4
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 1: And they are certainly going through it right now.

5
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:25,759
Speaker 2: Put up, everybody, and welcome to a brand new episode

6
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 2: of Dodgers Territory on this Monday. We are happy that

7
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 2: you are here. I am Alana Rizzo. That is Clint

8
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 2: p Cus, the guy that puts this entire thing together.

9
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,919
Speaker 2: We could not literally could not do the show without him.

10
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 2: Clint works very, very hard. I appreciate you, my friend.

11
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 2: The Dodgers stink right now. But before we get into that,

12
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 2: let's talk about the fact that our store is open,

13
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:48,840

00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 2: your friends all of it. I don't know what's going

19
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 2: on my Internet. I will continue to work on that.

20
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 2: Let's get to the big ticket.

21
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 3: Let's do it.

22
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 2: All right, take me through your thoughts. Milwaukee did the

23
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 2: season sweep of the Los Angeles Dodgers.

24
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:17,959
Speaker 4: Go, Clint go.

25
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's things aren't aren't happy, they aren't joinful for

26
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 3: the Dodgers at the moment. We got some thoughts on that.

27
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 3: Steven Nelson will also be joining us in a little

28
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 3: bit to give us his thoughts and hopefully some positive vibes.

29
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 3: But yeah, sweat by the Brewers again, you lose the

30
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 3: season series. Not a whole lot you can hang your

31
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:45,320
Speaker 3: hat on right now. Sloppy play, inconsistent offense, consistently inconsistent pitching.

32
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,559
Speaker 3: But it really just comes back to the sloppy play.

33
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 3: They're not putting themselves in position to win ballgames. So

34
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 3: like they're not putting together complete ball games. What do

35
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 3: you see?

36
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: I agree with that. I think it's been sloppy. I

37
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 2: think it's been a lax of daisical at times. I

38
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 2: think they've come out flat. You can't when you're not

39
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 2: hitting like you should be hitting and your pitching is okay,

40
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 2: you can't play sloppily, you know what I mean. But

41
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter what I think. It doesn't matter what

42
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 2: you think. Dave Roberts has a couple of things to

43
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 2: say about this as well.

44
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 3: Let's hear doc.

45
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 5: I think that the defense that the plays that I've seen,

46
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 5: I think are lack of focus. That's that's that's what

47
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 5: I feel. You know, the Tommy play, that's just a

48
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 5: tough play. I mean to get to the ball to

49
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 5: turn fire and get it across diamond and Freddie had

50
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 5: a tough pick. So that's something that Tommy made a

51
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 5: good play, you know. But you know the fly ball,

52
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 5: the grounder, you know, those things just can't happen. And

53
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 5: recently we're seeing that more and more. And like I said,

54
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 5: that shouldn't happen with our club.

55
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 3: That's the key thing right there is it shouldn't be

56
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 3: happening with this baseball team. They top to bottom. We

57
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 3: understand how good this organization is, how good it is run,

58
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 3: the people they have in place, and to see the

59
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 3: Dodgers just continue to throw up slop something.

60
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 2: Right, No, they just seem seem uninspired, if you will.

61
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 2: I'm actually texting Stephen Neilson right now again because he

62
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 2: didn't get the link apparently, So that's what I'm doing

63
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 2: right now. I'm not ignoring you, but there is something

64
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 2: that I want to talk about in terms of regression

65
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 2: to the mean, right. So I truly believe that this

66
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 2: is a team that by the end of the year.

67
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 2: Every team, by the end of the year is going

68
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 2: to come back to the mean, right. So however talented

69
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 2: this team is, they will get to the point where

70
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 2: they're back to where.

71
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 4: They're supposed to be.

72
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 2: The key is, I believe, is doing it of course

73
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 2: when you need it the most, and that for this

74
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 2: team is at the end of the season. This is

75
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 2: a team that is built for October. This is a

76
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 2: team that is going to go to the postseason. Obviously.

77
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 2: For example, just singling out Mookie Bets here or a

78
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 2: hot second, Mookie Bets is not having a good season

79
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 2: right now offensively, and I think that Mookie will have

80
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 2: the regression to the mean and he will be fine,

81
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 2: and he will get hot again. There's gonna be a

82
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 2: period of time where Mookie Bets is white hot, and

83
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 2: then it's always going to even itself out. And I

84
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 2: do think that's what's going to happen with this team.

85
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 4: I really do.

86
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 2: So I'm hoping that I am correct on that and

87
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 2: we shall see. But they look uninspired and I'm not

88
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 2: saying it's lack of effort. Please don't misconstrue what I'm saying.

89
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 2: I just think that it's just, you know, we kept

90
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 2: saying Clint going into the break that this team, Mookie bets,

91
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 2: this team could really, really really use the break. The

92
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 2: break didn't help. They just got swept by the Brewers

93
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 2: at home the break.

94
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 3: The Brewers didn't do much of anything for this team.

95
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 3: Yet you're really hoping Mookie would come out be on fire.

96
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 3: And then of course he's he's changed. He changes the

97
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 3: spot in the lineup. They move him to lead off

98
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 3: of a spot he hasn't hasn't been in since he

99
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,119
Speaker 3: was hit on the hand last year, broke that bone

100
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,159
Speaker 3: in his hand. And of course he was a leadoff

101
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 3: hitter to start the season. Show Hey when it was

102
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 3: on fire, when Mookie was out, and show Hey stayed

103
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 3: in that leadout spot up until now. But it's not

104
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 3: about like I agree, it's not about an effort. It's

105
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 3: just bad luck. This is how season goes. It feels

106
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 3: like a lot of bad luck and a lot of

107
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 3: things that can go wrong will go wrong. We do

108
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 3: have some perspective. We'll listen to you right now. Earlier today,

109
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 3: Tyler Glass now a current Dodger in that locker room

110
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 3: was on with the boys at foul Territory, So I

111
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 3: really liked this conversation between him and Scottie Brown. So

112
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,840
Speaker 3: let's listen to Glass and then we'll come back and

113
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 3: digest that and then hopefully be welcoming Steven Nelson soon.

114
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 3: But let's listen to this.

115
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 6: How do you observe a veteran team like this, that

116
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 6: is talented, that's been here year after year, go through

117
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 6: the balance of a tough stretch and saying, hey, we

118
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 6: got to fix this and get it right, but also

119
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 6: probably should just be doing what we've been doing for

120
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,799
Speaker 6: most of our careers because the organization makes the playoffs.

121
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's there's always like a point in

122
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 7: the season where you're in a rut like we had

123
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 7: when last year when I was here for my first

124
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 7: year here, I know in seventeen, I think I lost

125
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 7: like eleven in a row and then went to the

126
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 7: World Series. So I think it's not like a super

127
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 7: big panic moment. I think people understand when you're not

128
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 7: playing good, it like sucks and it's not as like

129
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 7: great in the clubhouse. And I think it's just at

130
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 7: this moment we're not really clicking on like.

131
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 4: Any of the cylinders.

132
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 7: And I think it's just kind of like how baseball goes,

133
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 7: Like you can be hitting well, not pitching well, then

134
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 7: it flips around then the bullpen's dominating and hitting is

135
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 7: a little bad or defense. It's just kind of like

136
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 7: the ebbs and flows of like things are good, things

137
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 7: are bad, and then like it's just the I guess,

138
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 7: like the law of chance or whatever. It's like probability

139
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 7: is just like at some point all of them are

140
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 7: going to be on a downswing and it just so

141
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 7: happens to be right now. But I guess it makes

142
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 7: you realize, like when you have bad moments, like when

143
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 7: we do start to play good again, it's like it

144
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 7: makes you appreciate a lot more, like you can't have

145
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 7: like the good happy series when Mike euro speaks like

146
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 7: speeches without like I don't know, just like appreciating when

147
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 7: it's good and when it's bad. And it's just right

148
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 7: now we're just in a rupt but we'll get out

149
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 7: of it. It's still we.

150
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 4: Have a lot of baseball left. I believe him.

151
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 2: I believe Oppenheimer when I tell you that it's the

152
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 2: exact same thing as the regression to the mean. He's

153
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 2: exactly saying that, Like, this is a team that everybody's

154
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 2: going through weird slump right now. But this team is

155
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: way too talented, they're way too proven. They have way

156
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 2: too many black types on their names associated with their names.

157
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 2: Their back of the baseball card is so unbelievably impressive.

158
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 2: They will be fine. This team is still in first place.

159
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 2: That being said, they cannot continue to get swept by

160
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 2: other teams, and that would be an unbelievable NLCS right

161
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 2: the Dodgers and the Brewers would be pretty incredible. That

162
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 2: being said, I think it's important to realize, like again,

163
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 2: it is July twenty. First, there's another game today. They

164
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 2: start against the Twins. Then they come here to Boston

165
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 2: to play the Red Sox, who are trying to figure

166
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 2: out their own way. But let's talk about what Steven

167
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 2: Nelson thinks. But first we have a word from our

168
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 2: friends over at foul Territory, and then Nelly will join us.

169
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 6: Time for a quickie break. Tod Father and I are

170
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 6: going to tell you about Hewel, but it's mostly going

171
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 6: to Godfather because I'm going to take a sip.

172
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 8: Well, we're talking about Huel twenty seven vitamins and minerals.

173
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 8: It's a complete meal. Let's listen. We all have busy

174
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 8: schedules of Scott's sipping it down. It looks delicious, it

175
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,679
Speaker 8: tastes delicious. When we're on the run, we need something

176
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 8: to eat quick. And guess what HWEL is There all

177
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 8: different flavors. Scottie loves them. I love them, and I

178
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 8: love how variety packed it is. And we can eat

179
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 8: them anytime of the day.

180
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 4: That's right.

181
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, check out the website. There's bars. There are so

182
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 6: many different flavors. I love the Black Edition, chocolate, thirty

183
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 6: five grams of protein, strawberry shortcake, coffee, caramel, cookies and cream.

Speaker 2: Hey, we can test it is very good.

191
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 3: So we had Nelson in for a second, Nellie in

192
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 3: for a second, and then he just left the link.

193
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 3: So he should be joining us back again in a second,

194
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 3: but apparently he's.

195
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 2: On my internet plan as well. Steven Nelson is there

196
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 2: in California. We'll get him back in momentarily. But again,

197
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 2: I do think again there's I'm just reading our comments

198
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 2: right now, Alasheva Jones. Too many fans using a motion

199
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 2: in place of rational thinking. G Stephen q as ass As.

200
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 2: It has been literally two games out of the best

201
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 2: record in baseball. I think we're just so unbelievably spoiled,

202
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 2: and we have this expectation that they're going to go

203
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 2: one to sixty two. And oh and we don't like

204
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 2: to see lasadaisical play or lack of inspired play. Again,

205
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 2: not saying it's the effort. I mean, this team obviously

206
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 2: wants to win more than anything. That's the whole goal

207
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 2: in life.

208
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 4: But it is.

209
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 2: It stinks, but they're going to be just fine. And again,

210
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 2: we still have a couple of weeks to the trade deadline,

211
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 2: and we'll talk to Stephen about that too when he

212
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 2: reconnects with us on this on this show. But no

213
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 2: need to panic just yet, kids, No need to panic.

214
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 3: I will say this is the closest I've started dipping

215
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 3: my toe towards the panic, and I mean it's not

216
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 3: it's about panicking just right now. I don't think I

217
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 3: said this on Twitter and I've talked about it a

218
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 3: couple of times a day so far. I don't think

219
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 3: this team as it is currently constructed, and this is

220
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 3: not going out on a limb as it is currently constructed,

221
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 3: is not a championship caliber team. We know the pieces

222
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 3: they have aren't going to be there in the best,

223
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 3: you know, best case scenario. These aren't going to be

224
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 3: the pieces that are in there on the roster in October.

225
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 3: So it wasn't again stating the obvious and saying right now,

226
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 3: you're not gonna win a World Series. Probably with your

227
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 3: Lou Trevino's and and Will Kleins in the bullpen. You're

228
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 3: not gonna do.

229
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 2: But those are not the guys that are gonna running

230
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 2: out in the world area. That's what I'm having to

231
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 2: keep that in mind. You have to think about like this,

232
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 2: there's so many moving parts and so many pieces of

233
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 2: this like long term puzzle that the Lou Trevino's and

234
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 2: the Noah Davis's and the Will Kleins and the whomever's

235
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 2: are not going to be on your NLDS roster Like,

236
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 2: that's just not what's going to happen.

237
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 4: So it's going to be fun.

238
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 3: They're here to meet all of these people too.

239
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but you need all these people to get

240
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 2: to where you want to be in the postseason. I mean,

241
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 2: it would be wonderful if the twenty six man roster

242
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 2: you went into the season with was the same exact

243
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 2: twenty six man roster the entire one sixty two and

244
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 2: the postseason that does it just doesn't. It doesn't work

245
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 2: that way.

246
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 3: No, we know this is all part of the fun

247
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 3: of baseball. It's about being miserable for a little while.

248
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 3: So we could all be miserable together and we could

249
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,559
Speaker 3: learn together. But I love it.

250
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 2: Even says he's been waiting. He's he's waiting to be

251
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 2: let in.

252
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 3: So maybe i'll i'll oh double, have him, have him

253
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 3: click the other link. Then he probably went back to

254
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 3: the first one. He needs to be on the second one.

255
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 2: If you're listening quick, next length, next length.

256
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 3: Hey usually wear a well oiled machine. But sometimes you

257
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 3: know what's funny Because this is also a question I

258
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 3: want to ask Stephen about his his skills with technology,

259
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 3: because he had posted on his social media. I don't,

260
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 3: I don't. I didn't give him the foul link. But anyways,

261
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,440
Speaker 3: he he had an issue with UH with his go

262
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 3: pro during that incredible World Series Game five moment where

263
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 3: he was calling the calling the game on radio for

264
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,079
Speaker 3: the Dodgers. I'm sorry, I'm distracted as we're trying to

265
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 3: get the link over to him.

266
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 7: But.

267
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 3: He held the Well, I'll let him tell the story

268
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 3: when he gets here, which should be in a moment

269
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 3: as we we buy more time. How about we do this.

270
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 3: Let's let's take another quick break, let's hear from us

271
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 3: for a second, and then we can enjoy talking to

272
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 3: Stephen Nelson. So we'll be right back.

Speaker 3: because I know what happened, Nelly, I know what happened.

299
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 2: Welcome the Japanese guy.

300
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 3: When I added another link and I add him to

301
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 3: the link, he saw the ad with Scottie Brawn and

302
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 3: all them, and he's like, oh, dang, I'm on the

303
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 3: wrong show. That has to be what happened that they

304
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 3: were still going.

305
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 4: So I was like, oh, that's I'm in the wrong place.

306
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 4: So that all good.

307

Speaker 3: Say, well, Riz, of course, everybody in the chat, this

311
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 3: is the great Stephen Nelson broadcast. Extraordinary for your Los

312
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 3: Angeles Dodgers and things, aren't They aren't happy right now? Nellie,

313
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 3: what's what's going on with this team?

314
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 4: Yeah? I mean, I vibes are the opposite of high.

315
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 4: I think that's very much evident.

316
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 1: It's just look, you know, typically when you hear the

317
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 1: dog days talking about the month of August, we're not

318
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: yet there. And some teams they have their dog days

319
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: in July, some have them in March and April, and

320
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: and this is just one of those stretches during the

321
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: season that every team, no matter how talented or how

322
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: big a payroll or how many MVPs you employ, you're

323
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 1: going to go through. And they are certainly going through

324
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 1: it right now. They are in it, and it's just

325
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 1: it's every day. It's finding a different way to lose

326
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 1: a baseball game, and obviously everybody watching it is frustrated,

327
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 1: so you can only imagine the guys actually playing in

328
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: and how frustrated they are too. So they just got

329
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: to you know, as much as you hate hearing the

330
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 1: cliches right now, and I think you probably want, but

331
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: he just to just snap and.

332
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 4: Kursh got close. Kurk got close yesterday.

333
00:15:55,480 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 1: As much as you might want that, probably I don't

334
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: know how productive that is. I've never been in a

335
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: major league clubhouse as a major league baseball player, but

336
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: I question how productive that would be, and I wonder

337
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 1: how counterproductive that could be.

338
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 4: So the problem is that you're just.

339
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: Not used to seeing this happen to particular guys for

340
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: this sustained amount of time, And so I think that's

341
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: what's left all of us kind of scratching our heads

342
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: and being like, wait, what the hell is going on here?

343
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 4: And we don't really have the answer.

344
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 2: Do you think Kershaw was to the point where he said,

345
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 2: you know what, I'm going to go ahead and stop

346
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 2: talking because I don't want to get in trouble because

347
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 2: of the errors that happened behind him, because of the

348
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 2: way that he was pitching because of a combination of things.

349
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 2: I mean, Kershaw is pretty pretty composed for the most part.

350
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 2: He hates losing.

351
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 4: That I do know.

352
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 2: I always hated him. I always hated interviewing him after

353
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 2: he lost because that was like I was always scared.

354
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 2: But you know what do you think it was?

355
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 4: Like?

356
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 2: What was the impetus of that particular interview?

357
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you covered pre Dad Kersh, So you really

358
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: saw the fire that he would bring into his media sessions.

359
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: And it was very evident that those in the scrum

360
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: yesterday were intimidated and afraid too. They did not ask

361
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: about the defense. They were asking about his splitter, as

362
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 1: if that was the story of the game.

363
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 3: And I get it.

364
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 1: I'm not like, I'm not trying to throw shade. I

365
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: wasn't down there. But listening to that, like Kersh is

366
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: probably like thinking to himself, you know, he wants he'll

367
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,680
Speaker 1: he'll talk about what happened in the game, but he's

368
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: not really being asked about what happened during the game.

369
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 4: And so I really do think it was just it

370
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 4: was just a.

371
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 1: Shit stew of, for lack of a better term, like

372
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 1: all all the ingredients yesterday tasted horrible. So if you're

373
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: talking about the way, you know he didn't execute the

374
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: way he wanted to, I'm sure he was feeling salty

375
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: about it, certainly more than justified, and feeling frustrated and

376
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 1: pissed off about the defense behind him. I was pissed

377
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: in the radio booth and like I even had like

378
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 1: on the air, I caught myself. I was like, okay, guys,

379
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: I'm okay because Dwayne McDonald, our producers laughing at me.

380
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 1: James Loney was just his second time doing radio. He's

381
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,160
Speaker 1: looking at me like are you all right? Dv's laughing

382
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 1: at me, and I'm like, god, I'm good. But I

383
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: hate bad baseball and we're seeing it pretty consistently from

384
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: the Dodgers outfield of late. So if Kershaw wanted to

385
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,640
Speaker 1: erupt about that again, more than justified, because not only

386
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 1: did it impact his final line and at this point

387
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: eighteen years in, like he's still a unanimous first bowel

388
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,879
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer, but it also impacted the number of

389
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 1: pitches he had to throw, and it just it changed

390
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: the game.

391
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:39,160
Speaker 4: It lost the game.

392
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 1: So whatever direction you wanted to ask, or whatever, take

393
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,360
Speaker 1: a direction you want to take, kershawing with a question

394
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: it probably wasn't going to lead to a good place.

395
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 4: So him, being the veteran that he.

396
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: Was, was sensing I'm going to say something that I

397
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 1: might regret, whether it's about myself, the situation the team is,

398
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 1: in particular teammates and defense.

399
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 4: So I'm just going to pull the place.

400
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: Look, and it's you know again, perhaps robbed us some

401
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,360
Speaker 1: entertainment that we could laugh about a couple weeks from

402
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 1: now when they're on a winning streak. But in the

403
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: short term, for probably the smartest.

404
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 3: Thing, Yeah, it's frustrating for all of us to watch

405
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 3: away this team plays. We know what they're capable of doing,

406
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 3: and the last couple of starts for twenty two, there's

407
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 3: been some suspect defense behind him, I mean kind of

408
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 3: behind everybody on the pitching staff. But let's let's have

409
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,640
Speaker 3: some positive, some happier thoughts. When we're talking about Clayton

410
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,120
Speaker 3: Edward Kershaw, the future Hall of Famer three thousand strikeouts,

411
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 3: and you were the man on the call. As much

412
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 3: as maybe you didn't want to be the man on

413
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 3: the call, you got that call because JD was out

414
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,679
Speaker 3: of town. Talk us through that man, how what was that, like,

415
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 3: what's kind of the emotion going through the booth for you?

416
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 3: And at the same time, like, literally what thirty seconds

417
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 3: before the awful play with Max Munsey happens. It's just

418
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,159
Speaker 3: such a roller coaster. But yeah, let us know, let

419
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 3: the people know what was going through your head on

420
00:19:59,320 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 3: three thousand.

421
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, So the context for your question is at the

422
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 1: beginning of the year, I'm sitting on the bus, I'm

423
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 1: running back with Joe d and I say to him,

424
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, man, like, you know, when kirsh comes back,

425
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,879
Speaker 1: and if he's close to three thousand, and I'm the

426
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: one on the schedule happy to tag you in. I

427
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: think you know, you're the voice of baseball, You're the

428
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:24,879
Speaker 1: voice of the Dodgers.

429
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:26,120
Speaker 4: You have.

430
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 1: And there's so many reasons that you should be in

431
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: the booth. And I'm you know, I'm the first one

432
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 1: to raise my hand and say that it should be

433
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: you on the call, and he appreciated that. Little did

434
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: we know that Kersh was going to speed up the

435
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: timeline and start punching every start punching everybody out right

436
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,919
Speaker 1: to the perfect time where the Davis family had to

437
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: plan vacation out of the country.

438
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 4: And so and so, hey, you got to do your job, right, Like,

439
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,159
Speaker 4: it's not that I didn't want that moment.

440
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 1: I just felt, out of respect to Joe and respect

441
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 1: to Clayton Kershaw and the Dodgers that it would have

442
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 1: been more appropriate had Joe been in the booth, but

443
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: he wasn't in the country.

444
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 4: So you know, got to do my job.

445
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 1: And so I of course love being a part of

446
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 1: big moments and exciting moments in the booth, and so yeah,

447
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 1: I just kind of had to lock in on the

448
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: task at hand. And the first chance was in Colorado

449
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 1: when he was eight away and you just kind of

450
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:27,880
Speaker 1: you didn't think that he was going to get eight,

451
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: whether it's just pitching a corps or going that deep

452
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 1: into the game. Hindsight, maybe you should have left him

453
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,639
Speaker 1: in front. And no, I'm kidding, but but it just

454
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,439
Speaker 1: it just it really did lead up to like the

455
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:46,160
Speaker 1: perfect dramatic moment at home last batter not perfect correcting

456
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 1: myself because of the Max months the injury, as you said,

457
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 1: because when you see like just like Freddy yesterday, when

458
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,479
Speaker 1: you see guys that you know are tough as nails

459
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: react in those ways, your your our alarm bells are

460
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 1: ring louder than they typically would be, and so to

461
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: see Max writhing in pain on the ground and to

462
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 1: have our producer in the truck, Russell Codonni was in

463
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 1: for Mike Leavy that night. He's like, we're not showing

464
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 1: the replay, and I'm like, all my talk backup, it's

465
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: that bad.

466
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,439
Speaker 4: Like that, we can't show the replay. He's like, I

467
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 4: just don't know.

468
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, okay, Like Max is done done, and

469
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 1: so then you see him get helped off the field

470
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 1: and then you gotta pan back and it's like, oh,

471
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,119
Speaker 1: all right, Kershaw still needs one more strikeout.

472
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 4: So it really was such a roller coaster.

473
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: I knew going into it no matter what happened, I

474
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 1: was going.

475
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 4: To say very little and get out of the way.

476
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: And so that's that's just what I did, delayed strike

477
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 1: free calls all night.

478
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:55,479
Speaker 4: I was like, this is also going to be a

479
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 4: problem from the home umpire.

480
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 1: Just look at something a little bit more decisive and quick,

481
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,679
Speaker 1: so we know. So I was like looking at Bonard

482
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 1: to looking out of the field like that split steck

483
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,679
Speaker 1: and it felt like five but it was just you know,

484
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 1: just punched the moment and then let Dodger Stadium take over.

485
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 1: I you know, broadcasting, you're never going to please everybody.

486
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: I understand that there were fans that were maybe wanting

487
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,320
Speaker 1: a little wanting a little bit more, but that's just

488
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: not my style. And I really do feel especially in

489
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 1: a home, if they're on the road, maybe it would

490
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: have been different, but especially at home at Dodger Stadium, like.

491
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 4: This fan base.

492
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 1: You know that, you know, Baseball colisseum Amphitheater, Dodger Stadium

493
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 1: is always going to say more than I could ever

494
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: dream of saying.

495
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 4: And so we didn't.

496
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: We laid out for I don't know, a minute, minute

497
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 1: and a half, whatever it was, and you know the

498
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,119
Speaker 1: emotions throughout the ballpark. We were feeling it in the

499
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: booth next to or Herscheizer. So that was my approach

500
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 1: to the moment. Again, I understand that it might have

501
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 1: left some folks wanting a little bit more.

502
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,719
Speaker 3: But nailed it, nailed it. I was there in the stands,

503
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 3: by the way, I had to be there for three

504
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 3: k and yeah, the fans helped the call tremendously. I

505
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 3: was hoping for one more curtain call from twenty two,

506
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,199
Speaker 3: but he had got out there enough and you know,

507
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 3: we know how he loves those moments he doesn't.

508
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 2: But anyways, right right along that same thread, when he

509
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,400
Speaker 2: was miked up at the All Star Game, I thought I.

510
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:32,400
Speaker 4: Was like wow.

511
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 2: I mean, I couldn't believe that Kersh said yes to

512
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,120
Speaker 2: being miked up at the All Star Game and really

513
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 2: had fun with it. And it just lends me to

514
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,679
Speaker 2: believe that Kersh is really trying to savor every moment.

515
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 2: Is this his swan song? I know he's not said

516
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 2: it publicly, but is this his swan song? Is this

517
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 2: it for him?

518
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 4: I mean I hope not.

519
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 1: I hope not, unless like the Dodgers of the storybook

520
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:01,679
Speaker 1: run and go back to back and Kershaw is a

521
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: part of that, and then maybe it's like maybe Ellen

522
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: just takes over and says you're done, Maybe just makes

523
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:11,160
Speaker 1: a decision or Clayton, you know, with with Kershaw kid

524
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 1: number five on the way. But you know, as a

525
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 1: baseball fan, like you know, we've watched him now going

526
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: on two decades, and it's it's watching Dodger baseball isn't

527
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 1: going to feel the same without Clayton Kershaw. But like

528
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,199
Speaker 1: I do think you know, as the last all my

529
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 1: time here going back to twenty twenty three, my first season,

530
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,120
Speaker 1: that's when or Herscheizer started saying the show down now

531
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 1: with Clayton Kersh appreciation Day, so that I'm approaching every

532
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 1: time he takes the ball as a chance to savor

533
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 1: what could be this one song. The signs are there,

534
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 1: that's the case. Of course, we're not inside Clayton's head.

535
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 1: I don't think he's allowing himself to get there yet.

536
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 1: Like he's just grinding through every pitch in every inning

537
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,680
Speaker 1: and you know, trying to help them put up more

538
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,640
Speaker 1: wins and win another division and you know, get into

539
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: the Championship Series and win another pennant and win another

540
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 1: World Series. He's not thinking about his future. But yeah,

541
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 1: I mean just a personal story. Aline you talk about,

542
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: you know, having to interview him after a loss and

543
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 1: how nervous that would make you. I remember working at

544
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 1: WE Network in twenty eighteen and that run of the

545
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:26,719
Speaker 1: World Series. I did the DS and we you know,

546
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 1: you those postseasons, you asked for like four or five guys,

547
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:34,360
Speaker 1: and you you know especially that we probably getting number four,

548
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,119
Speaker 1: number five, but you always ask for number one, and

549
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 1: so we asked for Kershaw, you know, one of the

550
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 1: days I was reporting and one of the PR members

551
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,119
Speaker 1: went over. They won this game, by the way, the

552
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 1: Dodgers won this game, and.

553
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,880
Speaker 4: They go over to Kershaw and was like, hey, Kershaw,

554
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 4: m Willby Network and he looks up over me. I

555
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 4: didn't take it personal, but.

556
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 1: He looks over back of the PR guy and he goes,

557
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 1: f no, and he just walked into the walked into

558
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 1: the clubhouse. I haven't told Clayton that story, but that

559
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: was always one of that was my That was my

560
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:18,120
Speaker 1: welcome to covering the postseason. But just so it's it's

561
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 1: funny about it now because you know that's you know,

562
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 1: that was the year he first became became a dad,

563
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,679
Speaker 1: and now everybody talks about how soft he is compare

564
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: it relative to But yeah, anyway, I just said, you know,

565
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: you asking about if this is the end. I just remembering, uh,

566
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 1: my experience with with with Kershaw anyway back to you.

567
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,360
Speaker 3: My my thing I've I've learned with Kershaw, running into

568
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 3: him at the stadium or whatever. I just leave him alone.

569
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 3: I say, like Clayton, thank you for everything. I leave

570
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 3: I leave the man alone. But when you have somebody

571
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,399
Speaker 3: else that go through, you know, having pr there, then

572
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 3: you're not the guy who has to get shut down

573
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 3: and crying.

574
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 4: Young young repoor like halfy with my flight thinking like, yeah,

575
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 4: I'm going to get to interview Clayton Kershaw for for

576
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 4: us here.

577
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,679
Speaker 3: My secret weapon is that lady above me, Riz. Everybody

578
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,959
Speaker 3: loves Riz, so you just send her, Hey, can you

579
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 3: can you get us this person? And then yeah, things

580
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 3: become things. They usually yeah, end up showing up.

581
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:14,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, Alana was a lot of those.

582
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: The first time really meeting, meeting Alana, and she inspired

583
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: me to get We got our dog.

584
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 4: That's you know, that's my connection. It is there. But yeah,

585
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 4: like turning turning me down? Got it makes sense, You're

586
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 4: not turning, You're not turning. No shot.

587
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 3: Uh, A couple more for your hair, really maybe one

588
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 3: more because I also wanted to slam both of you

589
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 3: guys for your your technical technology skills, as both of

590
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 3: you guys have different struggling internets. This this one's personal,

591
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 3: I guess for me or just for fun. I saw

592
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 3: you had posted on your social media, your Instagram a

593
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 3: little while back, uh, what was supposed to be World

594
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 3: Series Game five, A lovely moment with a go programera

595
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 3: capturing the final call and and you couldn't go pro.

596
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 1: Right, Uh yeah, no, okay, so definitely the head of

597
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 1: GoPro design.

598
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 4: I'm fighting that person on site. It's on site.

599
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 1: Why why you would set your camera to like default

600
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 1: to stop motion capture if you just press the record

601
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,800
Speaker 1: button a fraction of a second too long?

602
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 4: What fool thinks that's a good idea.

603
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 1: If I press record, I want it to record. If

604
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: I want stop motion, I will fiddle with my device

605
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: and manually change it to specifically ask for stop motion.

606
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: I'm getting angry as I tell the story clip. Shame

607
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 1: on you for asking this question and putting me in

608
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: this spot. So yeah, Game four, you know Dodgers could sweep.

609
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 1: Eric Basquez, head of Dodgers' productions, is like, we're gonna

610
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 1: put a.

611
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 4: GoPro in the booth, all right with you? With you

612
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 4: and mo great? No problem. Obviously did not sweep.

613
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:02,719
Speaker 1: Game five, the Yankees go up five to nothing, and

614
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: I kid you not. I text Eric and I said,

615
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: get this shit out of here, like we gotta this

616
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: is we got to turn the vibes around. So I

617
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 1: packed it up. I handed it back to Dwayne. That

618
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 1: was right before the top of the fifth inning, like

619
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: just a pure coincidence that had nothing to do with

620
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 1: the outcome of the game.

621
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 4: I don't.

622
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: I just want to say that now, just coincidentally, end

623
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 1: of the fourth inning, sick of this, take a Dwayne

624
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: Ericson to come pick it up. Top of the fifth happens,

625
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 1: nobody covers first five runs, tie the game, eventually, you know,

626
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: take the lead.

627
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 4: And then.

628
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:43,040
Speaker 1: I look up in the eighth inning, I'm like, Eric, hey,

629
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 1: do you want me to set this thing up? And

630
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, but you're gonna have to do it

631
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 1: because I'm downstairs, you know, getting ready, And I'm like,

632
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: fair point, that's fine. I've I went to a film school,

633
00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 1: I've majored in this. I can set up a GoPro

634
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 1: on a mini tripod and press play.

635
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 4: I can do that, or so I thought, So boom

636
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 4: set it up. End of the game.

637
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: Well we you know, have this this dramatic call uh

638
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 1: with with mo just like the emotions of a World

639
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 1: Series championship.

640
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 4: YadA, YadA.

641
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: Another organizational oversight, which again I can joke about it now.

642
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 1: You know, the Dodgers flew everybody out to New York,

643
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 1: all the employees for whatever reason they had me on

644
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 1: the first plane out, so like the I'm getting a

645
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 1: text from the the Travel not not the Dodgers Travel

646
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: because you know, it's like the HR Department and they're like, hey, everybody,

647
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: I'm playing one. Like meet at the bus right now.

648
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 1: I am on the air in the postgame show like

649
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 1: downstairs the David Bassey like getting soaked with champagne whatever

650
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 1: it is. I had to run from the booth to

651
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:00,480
Speaker 1: the bus to make sure I can get on a

652
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: plane back to La So I'm like running through the

653
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: bowels of Yankee Stadium, like David, You're coming in to celebrate,

654
00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I wish I could never been a

655
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 1: part of something like this, but I gotta go catch

656
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: on the catch a bus. I'm on the bus and

657
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 1: Eric texts me. He goes, dude, you recorded in stop

658
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 1: motion and my entire body melted into the bus seat

659
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 1: now and blessed Eric's heart. He like, you know, he

660
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: edited it with like the camera clicking sound effect to

661
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 1: like try and save it.

662
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 4: So brutal.

663
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 1: Jump ahead to Kershaw Kershaw's Night Again day set up

664
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: a camera in the booth, and then after the game,

665
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 1: I get a text from Eric and he goes, hey,

666
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 1: you didn't f this one up, so it's great.

667
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 2: My word, my word, that's stressful. That's stressful. Before we

668
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 2: let you go, let's actually talk baseball. What are the

669
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 2: Dodgers doing at the deadline?

670
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 4: Nelly? I need to know.

671
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 2: I need the four to one one immediately.

672
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 4: What do they need? Well, the only one that I

673
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 4: feel comfortable.

674
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 1: Saying for sure is a right on right reliever, meaning

675
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 1: a righty that specializes in getting right handed hitters out.

676
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: Allah Evan Phillips, You're not going to get Van back

677
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 1: this year. You want to say, hey, you're going to

678
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 1: get Blake try to back. You're getting Michael Kopek back,

679
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: and there's a shot you get Bazuka back, maybe right,

680
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,239
Speaker 1: And so I think right a right handed reliever is

681
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 1: probably at the top of the list. That's really hasn't

682
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 1: been a secret, but that was going back to really

683
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 1: the beginning of the year, even when they had, you know,

684
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: more guys stocked in the cupboard. So now now it

685
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 1: just seems a little bit more important and and urgent,

686
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 1: especially because the bullpit of late like it's you could

687
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 1: tell it's tired. I mean, Luke Trevino's the new Luis Garcia.

688
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 1: They're just they're they're just.

689
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 4: Leaning on him.

690
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: But from the right side, it's like Kirby Eates, you know,

691
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: it was a veteran back nine of his career, and

692
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 1: then it's Ben Consparius, Lu Trevino and Will Climb, you know,

693
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: and and and will you like his stuff and his potential,

694
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 1: but you know, he just doesn't have that experience yet.

695
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,959
Speaker 1: So right handed reliever for sure. You know, I've seen

696
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 1: this stuff about you know, the reports out there about

697
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 1: the package with with with Cleveland and whatnot. But you

698
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 1: know a lot of you know, I mean, you covered

699
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: this front office regime for longer than I've been around.

700
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 1: They do not enjoy the trade deadline at all.

701
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 4: They don't.

702
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 1: They don't want to play these inflated prices and the

703
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 1: Dodger tax that frankly, you know, like it probably exists,

704
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 1: and especially if you're going to be dealing with the

705
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:53,359
Speaker 1: National League team.

706
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,760
Speaker 4: So you know, so you don't.

707
00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 2: Think that Zach Allen or Merrill Kelly's coming to LA.

708
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I'm honestly even like or even like a

709
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 1: Ryan McMahon, Like, you know, I saw our dear mutual

710
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:09,359
Speaker 1: friend Greg Amsinger drinking his Greg Arita talking about Ryan

711
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,399
Speaker 1: McMahon to the to the Dodgers, and I.

712
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 4: Just I don't know.

713
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 1: And the great news is that Max Munsey's ahead of schedule.

714
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: Like again we go from thinking hey, done done to

715
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 1: now coming back. But he's not going to be close

716
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,480
Speaker 1: to one hundred percent the rest of this season, that

717
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,840
Speaker 1: is for sure, and he may be feeling it in

718
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:32,240
Speaker 1: the next year. And so you can't just lean on him.

719
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: Though it has become very evident that when the Dodgers

720
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:37,839
Speaker 1: were telling us when Max Montsy was in that month

721
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 1: and a half stretch of being scorching hot, Max Mountsey's

722
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,920
Speaker 1: carrying the offense a little, did we know he was

723
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:45,320
Speaker 1: literally carrying.

724
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 4: The entire team.

725
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: And so, you know, I do think this is a

726
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: time to give Munsey his flowers, just as a Dodger,

727
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: what he has done in.

728
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 4: His career, it really is remarkable.

729
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 1: And so and and like being a guy who just

730
00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: went out of his way to take less money to

731
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,919
Speaker 1: stay a what he meant to the clubhouse last year

732
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 1: and kind of he and Mookie, you know, leading the charge,

733
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:06,800
Speaker 1: you know, with the with the plane and bonding in

734
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 1: the postseason run. Like give Max's flowers. So but the

735
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 1: fact that you're going to maybe get him back is good.

736
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 1: Hopefully Freddy's you know back sooner than later. This would

737
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: be a good runway for rushing to get some consistent

738
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,359
Speaker 1: abs against major league pitching, which is which would be good.

739
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: But the only one that I feel comfortable saying is

740
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 1: is a right handed reliever. Anything else that kind of

741
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,839
Speaker 1: presents itself for the next couple of weeks, well either

742
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,920
Speaker 1: be will either either be a a bonus or be

743
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 1: Like this, this you know rut that they're in has

744
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 1: lasted to.

745
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:44,799
Speaker 4: The trade deadline.

746
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 1: I do think, like more than anything, that they just

747
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 1: need they need a spark. They're not having fun right

748
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 1: now and obviously lose. It's it's hard to have fun

749
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,240
Speaker 1: when you're sucking right when you've lost ten to twelve games,

750
00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 1: Like you're not going to enjoy things.

751
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 4: But like that.

752
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 1: Like specific whether it's Mookie Bets or specifically MOOKI is

753
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 1: probably the poster chip for this, But I just I'm

754
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 1: not seeing the joy from these guys playing baseball. And

755
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 1: these aren't dudes that you've ever had to question that,

756
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:15,800
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like that was part of

757
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 1: the reason why they're so beloved and why, you know,

758
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,240
Speaker 1: I want to show Mooki a clip of my son.

759
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 4: Like the play he got.

760
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 1: Thrown out inexplictably trying to stretch that double into into

761
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 1: three against Houston. My son's in the stands and everyone's booing,

762
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:34,240
Speaker 1: and my my son is just like it's his favorite player,

763
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 1: and it's like maybe it's because he loves like out

764
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 1: like Mooki the way Mookie plays, and you know, and

765
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 1: it makes me sad that that Mookie's forgotten that. So anyway,

766
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: I just that that's what I really want to see

767
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,320
Speaker 1: this next week. And then you know, the trade deadline stuff,

768
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:54,239
Speaker 1: it's going to sort itself out. But I you know,

769
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,279
Speaker 1: I definitely think the bullpen is gonna have a different look.

770
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:57,439
Speaker 1: You know, the stretch run.

771
00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 3: Hey, you know, it helps the team out a whole

772
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,279
Speaker 3: bunch in more ways than one. If you go and

773
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,840
Speaker 3: beat the Twins because they have a couple of players,

774
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,439
Speaker 3: maybe that would look good in Dodger Blue and also

775
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 3: would really help to get off the schneid and they

776

782
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 4: I looked like.

783
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 1: I was like filming through potato the first couple of

784
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 1: minutes we're here for, which might have been an upgrade

785
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,360
Speaker 1: for the viewers at home. But anyway, I always appreciate

786
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 1: being all of you.

787
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 4: Guys. We'll do it again soon.

788
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 3: Yes, so that we'll be back guys. We'll be back

789
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 3: in a second after last licks.

790
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,799
Speaker 2: All right, guys, let's introduce you to Rex are A

791
00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,319
Speaker 2: x X. This is a boy that was at the

792
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 2: Downy Animal Control Center in California and they were going

793
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 2: to kill him just for space. He is severely emaciated

794
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 2: because he was not well taken care of. But he

795
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 2: is the sweetest dog. I've posted videos up of him

796
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 2: on our social media platforms. He is so well mannered.

797
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:19,800
Speaker 2: He walks unbelievable on a leash. He is sweet tempered.

798
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 2: He's going to probably be a pretty big boy. He's

799
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 2: tall and he's long. He's very very skinny right now,

800
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,800
Speaker 2: so we need to fatten him up. I can certainly

801
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 2: help him with that. Give him some of my weight.

802
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,879
Speaker 2: He is such a good boy. He is in need

803
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 2: of an adopter and we definitely need some donations in

804
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 2: terms of treats. Please check us out Gidrisgardian dot org.

805
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 2: If you're interested in adopting Racks, please do so. We

806
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 2: would love it. He is being fostered in Thousand Oaks

807
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 2: right now, but needs a forever home. He's awesome, awesome, awesome,

808
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 2: awesome dog. Belgian MALINOI do your research. They're high energy dogs,

809
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 2: excellent dogs, but they definitely need to be mentally and

810
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,360
Speaker 2: physically stimulated. So check out Racks.

811
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 3: It a lot of good boy as well.

812
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 2: Good boy, he's a lot of good boy. He's a

813
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:05,240
Speaker 2: big boy, a lot.

814
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 4: Of good shows.

815
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 3: Hey, Ris, you got anything on your mind when it

816
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,439
Speaker 3: comes to baseball? I mean, obviously as a final thought

817
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 3: here before we head out, that talked to a lot

818
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 3: of Dodgers. Here.

819
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 2: You gotta beat the twins. You gotta beat the twins

820
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,359
Speaker 2: to take two out of three. And how about this

821
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 2: is my thing? How about rich Hill being called up

822
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 2: by the royals. Rich Hill is seventy two years old.

823
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:28,600
Speaker 2: And what did you say that Dick Mountain rises slow?

824
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 4: What'd you say?

825
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, say, look, he's older. People get older. It takes

826
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 3: a little a little while to get going. But you know,

827
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 3: Dick Mountain rises to the occasion.

828
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:40,839
Speaker 2: He's back, is back with the Kansas City Royals. Good

829
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 2: for you, my friend. He lives right down the road.

830
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 2: He and his wife Caitlyn live in Milton, Massachusetts. But

831
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 2: now he's apparently going to be a member of the

832
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:50,520
Speaker 2: Kansas City Royals.

833
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 3: Just we all had it in our baseball Bengo card,

834
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 3: seven hundred year old Rich Hill pitching for the Kansas

835
00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 3: City Royals, just the way you draw it up. But guys,

836
00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 3: I think that's about it. We've had ourselves a heck

837
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 3: of a show here. Always appreciate Stephen Nelson. Good stuff there,

838
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,439

839
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:11,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, he loveslie does what's coming up on your show?

840
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:12,960
Speaker 2: Before we say goodbye?

841
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,719
Speaker 3: So we did a show myself, Jeff Snyder, we did

842
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 3: a show this morning, kind of a therapy session. Tomorrow

843
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 3: we are going to do our first, not our first,

844
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 3: but a real official trade deadline rumors special all of

845
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 3: that kind of stuff, the things we think people need

846
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,880
Speaker 3: to know and what we hope the Dodgers do at

847
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 3: the trade deadline, so that will be coming up on

848
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,880
Speaker 3: the All Dodgers YouTube channel tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully we have

849
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 3: a Dodger win under our belt, because that would make

850
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,239
Speaker 3: us all feel a lot better. It would also make

851
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:44,839
Speaker 3: us feel better. What do you got?
