After getting walked off 5 00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:28.640 Friday night in San Francisco, the Dodgers looked to get back on track yesterday, 6 00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:32.679 and they did just that in extra innings today, the rubber game of 7 00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:35.359 this three game set. James Paxton on the mound, The big maple, 8 00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:38.920 first pitch of Oracle Park is coming up at one oh five, coming up 9 00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:42.320 over the next sixty minutes here on a wronggo Casino Dodgers on deck. We 10 00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:44.679 got a lot to get to. You're gonna hear from the Dodger manager, 11 00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:48.560 Dave Roberts.

Will 13 00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:54.799 dive deeper to this pitchy matchup just a little bit. We'll visit with Kirsten 14 00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:58.359 Watson live on the field at Oracle Park, and in just a few minutes 15 00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:00.640 we'll check in with Rick Monday and Steven Nelson, who hopefully still has a 16 00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:06.120 voice left after that long marathon of a game yesterday at Oracle Park. It 17 00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:10.439 was back and forth for nine innings before the Dodgers pulled away in extra innings. 18 00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:14.959 Tyler Glassnow got to start his shortest outing as a Dodger, just three 19 00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:19.519 innings. He gave up five runs while striking out only one and walking too 20 00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:23.920 After Glass Now, eight different relievers came in to pitch for the Dodgers. 21 00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:30.159 The Giants, meanwhile, used seven different pitchers and a bullpen game, A 22 00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:34.280 lot of pitchers, a lot of offense between these two teams Yesterday. Twenty 23 00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:38.799 one combined runs, twenty nine combined hits between the Dodgers and Giants. In 24 00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:42.560 the second Miguel Rojas an RBI single, and the third show Hey Otani a 25 00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:46.680 solo home run, his twenty sixth of this season. In the fourth, 26 00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:49.000 the Dodgers scored four runs, two off infield singles, one off a single 27 00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:53.519 to right from Gavin Lux and one of those off a bases loaded walk to 28 00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.000 Freddie Freeman. Dodgers and Giants were tied at six after nine innings. In 29 00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:00.439 the tenth, both teams would score the free runners. The Giants had a 30 00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:04.120 chance to win it, but couldn't do it, so they went to the 31 00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:08.039 eleventh tied at seven with a free runner. On second showy Otani was intentionally 32 00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:14.000 walked, bringing up Will Smith. Heyo two to Smith. Will swings in 33 00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:16.879 the air left center field, that splits the gap, gets all the way 34 00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:22.280 to the warning track. K K stores so hay Be waved a rap, 35 00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:29.960 Will Smith, Oh did you? A two run double on the top of 36 00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:35.319 the eleventh, Dodgers ahead nine to seven. Two run double from Will Smith, 37 00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:39.240 Dodgers a two run lad next stuff in RBI double Dodgers a ten to 38 00:02:39.240 --> 00:02:44.080 seven lead. Two batters later, Chris Taylor and RBI singled to right. 39 00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:50.520 Dodgers were up eleven to seven. R after that. Jason Hayward Jason Hayward 40 00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:55.080 first and second, still no outs. First piss swinging grandit foot ball down 41 00:02:55.159 --> 00:03:00.680 the right field line, tail will score great hight for fifteen. As the 42 00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:05.719 ball gets all the way to the corner, Hayward heads the third hey poo 43 00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:13.199 run triple. Jason Hayward standing on third and two run triple Dodgers of thirteen 44 00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:15.800 to seven. They tack on one more on a Miguel Rojas sack. Fly 45 00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:21.039 Dodgers was seven runs in the top half of the eleventh inning. They go 46 00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:24.319 on and beat the Giants fourteen to seven, a game that took nearly four 47 00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:29.360 hours but was worth the way. The Dodgers get the win. They're now 48 00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:31.599 fifty two and thirty two overall. Today, the rubber game of this three 49 00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:36.199 game series in San Francisco. James Paxton on the mound and with more we 50 00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:38.560 head out to the Gallpin Motors broadcast booth as we welcome in Rick Monday and 51 00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:44.319 hopefully a guy who still has a voice after that long game yesterday, Steven 52 00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:47.319 Nelson, Thank you, Tim, I'm here next to Rick Monday. No, 53 00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:51.319 I'm kidd night. My voice is fine after all the screaming and yelling 54 00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:57.000 I did in the eleventh inning yesterday. Is the Dodgers scored seven runs. 55 00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:01.319 It went from a tight game to a blowout out. Justina Blink, I 56 00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:05.520 don't know how either one of these clubs tops today. What we have seen 57 00:04:05.719 --> 00:04:11.479 a walk off home run Friday night as the Giants prevailed at to run blast 58 00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:15.919 when to get five to three, and did the Dodgers last night able to 59 00:04:15.279 --> 00:04:20.319 come back up and put a seventh spot on the board in the eleventh inning. 60 00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:23.759 So it comes down to drama. Also, you know, in that 61 00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:26.959 losing effort on Friday night, keep in mind too, the Dodgers had to 62 00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:30.439 score a run in the ninth inning in order to even take it into the 63 00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:33.480 bottom of the ninth and they were able to survive. On that end of 64 00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:38.439 it. I think it's going to be really on the weight on the shoulders 65 00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:45.639 of James Paxton for the Dodgers today to kind of relief appearances of the bullpen. 66 00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:48.399 And on the flip side of that, Steven the San Francisco Giants, 67 00:04:48.519 --> 00:04:54.279 they have Spencer Bevans is going to be going and we know that their bullpen 68 00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:58.040 is absolutely exhausted, so they're going to have to try and maneuver themselves. 69 00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:00.759 Yeah, Bob Melvin was asked after the game last night, hey, what's 70 00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:02.439 your plan. You have back to back bullpit game bullpening games, and he's 71 00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:05.920 like basically threw his arms. We'll see, we'll see. I mean, 72 00:05:06.120 --> 00:05:12.040 Tyler Rodgers did not pitch yesterday after pitching the opener. We have Luke Jackson. 73 00:05:12.079 --> 00:05:14.879 Those are probably the first two that come to mind in terms of who 74 00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:16.959 is available for the Giants. That did make a call bringing a kid up 75 00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:21.639 from Triple A today. But this is on paper, on paper, this 76 00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:25.680 is a game that the Dodgers should be able to take advantage. Now they 77 00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:30.000 are sitting Will Smith and Miguel Rojas as the plan to keep. Mickey wrote 78 00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:32.279 thirty five years old, fresh but having played three out of four and Will 79 00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:36.120 Smith after you know, catching eleven and then the quick turnaround the day game, 80 00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:40.839 he's probably available off the bench today. But again, on paper, 81 00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:43.279 this is a game they should win. Yesterday, on paper, that was 82 00:05:43.279 --> 00:05:46.240 a game that they should have run away with Tyler glassnow on the mound. 83 00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:47.240 But it didn't. It just didn't go that way. That's why we got 84 00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:51.160 it was actually funding on the bus earlier today going from the hotel to coming 85 00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:56.199 to the ballpark, is it? Freddie Freeman and his son were already on 86 00:05:56.240 --> 00:05:59.319 the bus, and then Will Smith got on the bus and as he's walking 87 00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:01.879 past Freddy, Freddy says, oh, you're not going to play today. 88 00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:03.720 And he turned to me and says, mo, what do you think about 89 00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:05.560 that? And I said, well, he had a good night last night, 90 00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:09.240 so just give us the space. And they were all laughing. I 91 00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:11.759 mean, this is a ball club that understands, Hey, look, we've 92 00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:15.000 got to rest some guys here and there. Interesting also, as you bring 93 00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:18.279 up KK Hernanez will start at shortstop, and Chris Taylor is going to get 94 00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:21.920 from what we understand, a little bit more opportunity and get some more looks 95 00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:26.319 at third base as he will be there. Gavin Lucks again is going to 96 00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:31.199 be at SACA base, Jason Hayward in the number five spot, and Hayward's 97 00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:35.399 bat beginning to really start to warm up, so he'll play just his thirty 98 00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:39.279 ninth game, but his presence back of the lineup has really added it a 99 00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:43.680 lot. Hopefully the Dodgers can carry the momentum from that seven run eruption in 100 00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:46.800 the top of the eleventh yesterday here in today's series finale. We'll have a 101 00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:48.360 little bit more a little bit later, but for now, back to you 102 00:06:48.399 --> 00:06:50.879 TC.

This is Kirston's corner with Kirston Watson. 127 00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:00.120 Hey Kirston now joins us from the field at Oracle Park in San Francis go 128 00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:03.440 before the final game of this three game series and Kirsen a long one yesterday. 129 00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:07.960 Both bullpens got used a lot. The Giant's gonna have to use that 130 00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:11.960 bullpen again today. But for the Dodgers, James Paxton, what are you 131 00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:16.200 looking from him today, the hope is that he can go deep into this 132 00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:20.919 game and just give the bullpen and breather as much as possible. Dave didn't 133 00:09:20.919 --> 00:09:24.759 specify like who's unavailable on the bullpen, but he said, just know a 134 00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:26.919 lot of guys are going to be down. So the hope is that James 135 00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:31.279 Paxton can just give them as much as they possibly can today to get the 136 00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:35.320 whole team to the off day tomorrow. Looking at the lineup CT three, 137 00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:39.360 Chris Taylor at third base today, Yeah, and it's something that Dave Roberts 138 00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:41.000 said today. They're going to give him a bit of a runway at third 139 00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:46.639 so stepping in there today, said that we'll be seeing him if a left 140 00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:48.600 he's on the mound, he'll probably step back over a second base or Alwa's 141 00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:52.080 kind of been seeing him stepping in for Gavin looks against a lefty. But 142 00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:56.600 for now, Davis don't really pleased with what he's been seeing from Chris Taylor 143 00:09:56.639 --> 00:09:58.879 in regard to just the quality of that bat. You look at these last 144 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:03.320 two weeks, he's essentially batting over four hundred, so he's getting things going 145 00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:07.519 with the bat, just kind of feeling in a really good spot offensively. 146 00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:11.200 So the hope is, you know, with a little bit more playing time, 147 00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:15.000 did you continue with that? Dave hasn't been as pleased just what he's 148 00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:18.919 with what he's been seeing from the guys who have been stepping in at third 149 00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:22.879 base, not necessarily defensively, it felt like he gave really strong defensively, 150 00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.639 but offensively they haven't been there just yet. So the hope is, you 151 00:10:26.679 --> 00:10:28.399 know, get a little bit more consistency at the bottom of the order from 152 00:10:28.440 --> 00:10:33.600 whoever's playing at third So right now saying it'll be Chris Taylor, and you 153 00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:35.759 know, moving forward, he doesn't know exactly what the plan is going to 154 00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:41.080 be, but there were to be seeing a lot more of Chris Taylor playing 155 00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:43.039 at third base.

Max Munsey's doing baseball activities and it sounds like he is progressing. 175 00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:09.080 He's able to come off the il the day before the All Star break, 176 00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:13.399 so probably won't see him until after the All Star break. Brusdar Graderal, 177 00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:16.120 Joe Kelly, Tony Gonsolin estimate all on the sixty day. I l 178 00:12:16.159 --> 00:12:18.480 all right, let's head back up north and check out with the Dodger Skipper. 179 00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:24.240 Questions for Dave Dave? Can you just describe Dave? Can you talk 180 00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:31.240 about the pressure in the dugouts with Dave Roberts you felt about the production at 181 00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:35.240 third basis next, it's gone down, hasn't been great. I think that 182 00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:41.080 you know, keyk is playing the heck out of third base, playing third 183 00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:48.279 base, the offense has been inconsistent, Calvin has got on base. I 184 00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:54.159 just think that the Abats need to get better and the defense has been fine. 185 00:12:54.879 --> 00:12:58.120 So I think that you know, for me, you know, it's 186 00:12:58.240 --> 00:13:03.159 it's performance certainly should matter, and I think that opportunity should be created. 187 00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:07.279 I think that Chris is gonna I'm gonna give him some runway at third base, 188 00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:13.080 and I think that he deserves a look and I think his last couple 189 00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:16.559 of weeks speak to that. When you see a runway, does that mean 190 00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:22.159 two three consecutive starts or is that you know when Keyk's giving Rojas a day 191 00:13:22.240 --> 00:13:26.679 off. No, he's gonna play. He's gonna play. He's gonna play. 192 00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:31.600 So I don't know what that means, but he's gonna play more than 193 00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:35.440 he's played in the last few weeks. Do you see him still stepping in 194 00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:43.639 at second or primarily able to be at third? We'll see. I think 195 00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:48.240 verse left he'll be at second base, verse left to be a second base, 196 00:13:48.279 --> 00:13:52.679 but you know the runway is more of he's gonna be playing more verse 197 00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:56.879 right and just in general. But I think, yeah, verse left he'll 198 00:13:56.879 --> 00:13:58.759 be a second base. And then would you want to take a look at 199 00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:05.279 happened or even keikick kind of elsewhere on the field or where does that impacts 200 00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:13.559 sense? No, I don't think so. I think that it doesn't change 201 00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:16.720 that part as far as you know where they're going to play on the field. 202 00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:18.360 All right, there's Dave Roberts down the dugout brought to you by Service 203 00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:22.240 Titan.

Get to the very latest as we're leading you up to 208 00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:39.080 first pitch on this Sunday Dodgers and Giants from San Francisco. I'm Tim Kates's 209 00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:50.200 Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network. This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck on your 210 00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:56.879 home for the Blue all season long, Dodgers and Giants on this Sunday afternoon. 211 00:14:56.960 --> 00:15:01.480 James Packson on the mound, Spencer Vivot, we'll go for San Francisco. 212 00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:05.440 Dodgers. Fans and hands are listening experienced all Dodger games by downloading the 213 00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:11.919 iHeartRadio app and listening in HD. It's all powered by Lacare Health Plan serving 214 00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:18.639 all Angelinos Lacare dot Org. Joining Tim kits on Dodgers on Deck, I 215 00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:24.279 accept everybody for who they are. This is Dodger insider David Basse. All 216 00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:30.759 right, DV Miguel Rojas, pretty impressive what he did yesterday? Yeah, 217 00:15:30.879 --> 00:15:35.200 great, game by Miguel Rojas, not only the three hits and four RBIs, 218 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.759 but again great defense. There was a play in the game yesterday where 219 00:15:39.840 --> 00:15:45.559 Jorge Selaire was at second base, ground ball hit to Miguel Rojas, aggressive 220 00:15:45.600 --> 00:15:48.639 play to throw to third base to get not only an out, but get 221 00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:54.000 the out at third base. And that's not something a lot of shortstops would 222 00:15:54.039 --> 00:15:58.639 do or would be able to execute. But Miguel Rojas stopped for us. 223 00:15:58.679 --> 00:16:03.320 After the game last night, just talked about the resiliency this team has showed 224 00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:07.799 in individual games and all season long. It's really good. I feel like 225 00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:11.440 that's all you can ask for. You know, every single day we come 226 00:16:11.480 --> 00:16:12.960 to a ball part with the expectation to win, and we don't take it 227 00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:17.480 for gotten that we want to win every single game. And we know what 228 00:16:18.240 --> 00:16:22.600 we want our compli, which is winning in the postseason and winning awards years. 229 00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:26.440 This game was pretty much a postseason game, to be honest with you, 230 00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:30.559 here against our rival, and he's always nice to win here. A 231 00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:34.639 great game for the Dodgers, scoring seven runs in that eleventh inning, tim 232 00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:38.399 and there were just so many different things that went on in that three hour, 233 00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:44.679 forty five minute game. But I think everybody that was here listening thoroughly 234 00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:48.480 enjoyed a classic Dodgers Giant Seesaw game. Yeah, no doubt about it. 235 00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:52.399 David is duram by The Ford F Series, America's best selling truckst for forty 236 00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:55.480 seven years in county Ford gives you freedom of choice, gas, hybrid, 237 00:16:55.519 --> 00:16:59.440 electric, heady your Southern California Ford Dealers, and find yours Ford F Series 238 00:16:59.559 --> 00:17:03.000 built tough. Chris Taylor, David, we're gonna see a little bit more 239 00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:07.119 of the CT three. Yeah, he's in the starting lineup as you know 240 00:17:07.319 --> 00:17:11.160 today. And Dave Roberts said that he is going to give Taylor more of 241 00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:15.920 a quote runway. And when I asked Dave Roberts, what does that mean? 242 00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:19.240 Is he going to play third base? Is he going to play left 243 00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:23.480 field? Second base more? And he said he wasn't sure what that meant. 244 00:17:23.559 --> 00:17:27.519 But it feels like it's going to be more of third base for Chris 245 00:17:27.599 --> 00:17:33.759 Taylor, because let's be honest here, Kevin Bigio, that experiment really has 246 00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:40.640 felt like it's run its course and he's playing adequate I guess defense. He's 247 00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:44.079 not getting hits, he's not getting on base, So what really is he 248 00:17:44.240 --> 00:17:48.160 doing that's helping the team, DV. We appreciate it. We will check 249 00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:51.119 in with you later on.

Here's La Dodgers 290 00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:23.720 broadcaster and World Series champion Dodger Rick Monday. Well, Rick, as we 291 00:21:23.799 --> 00:21:27.279 get ready for this game, you had to throw out a former umpire. 292 00:21:27.359 --> 00:21:32.480 How good did that one? We just had the most delightful conversation with Ed 293 00:21:32.599 --> 00:21:37.920 Montague, a former Major League empire and now he is an official umpire review 294 00:21:38.039 --> 00:21:44.240 if you will. And he's one of those guys that as a Major league 295 00:21:44.279 --> 00:21:48.000 umpire, he was part of baseball. It wasn't like he was a separation. 296 00:21:48.240 --> 00:21:51.039 Well, we're an umpire and you're a player, and no, Ed 297 00:21:51.119 --> 00:21:55.160 Montague was one of the best. He's been talking to the umpiring crew here 298 00:21:55.680 --> 00:22:00.680 in San Francisco as well. So we just had a nice talk about setting 299 00:22:00.759 --> 00:22:03.680 up for umpires and what have you. I did bring up something that took 300 00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:07.000 place last night, and I asked him specifically because we saw it take place 301 00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:11.720 late in the ballgame with what turned out to be a base hit. And 302 00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:17.039 that base hit was in the tenth inning and it appeared that it was off 303 00:22:17.160 --> 00:22:19.599 of Ramo's left foot. The ball stayed fair. It was an infield single, 304 00:22:19.640 --> 00:22:22.519 So I asked Ed. I said, look, can you check into 305 00:22:22.559 --> 00:22:26.720 something for me, because we're looking at the different rules on replay and review 306 00:22:27.039 --> 00:22:32.240 and if it's the crew chief review that may be taking place, and he 307 00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:36.079 brought up a good point. We had a nice, wonderful discussion. If 308 00:22:36.200 --> 00:22:38.839 you can review on a hit by pitch if it hit the batter or not, 309 00:22:40.359 --> 00:22:42.240 and that's an umpires and a crew chief review, you can do that, 310 00:22:42.759 --> 00:22:47.480 And if you can also review catcher's interference if the swing, if the 311 00:22:47.519 --> 00:22:51.160 bat happened hit the catcher's mint, and I proposed the question, then why 312 00:22:51.279 --> 00:22:55.799 can you not check on a review if the ball was fouled off of a 313 00:22:55.880 --> 00:23:00.400 player's foot or leg or any part of his body and stayed fair? Because 314 00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:06.039 is that not also a description of fair or foul which is included in the 315 00:23:06.119 --> 00:23:07.039 review? And he goes, you know what, I'm going to give a 316 00:23:07.079 --> 00:23:11.079 call to Major League Baseball and maybe be able to figure out if that's something 317 00:23:11.119 --> 00:23:15.039 that should be included. I love that rick, because I talked to Dodger 318 00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:18.400 bench coach Danny Lehman, I'm out the same play, and he said that 319 00:23:18.559 --> 00:23:22.400 was not reviewable. We wish it would be reviewable, but we were stuck 320 00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:25.000 between a rock and a hard play. But the question is would it not 321 00:23:25.119 --> 00:23:27.640 fall into the auspices of fair or foul because it should have been a foul 322 00:23:27.720 --> 00:23:33.519 ball should have been And does it also not to fall into it because it's 323 00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:37.319 reviewable if a batter is hit by a pitch or not. So Eddie mightded 324 00:23:37.400 --> 00:23:38.440 it was going to go down. In fact, that he's on his way 325 00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:42.200 as we speak, down to the umpire's room and to kind of talk to 326 00:23:42.319 --> 00:23:45.680 them and see what their thoughts are. But we had a nice discussion, 327 00:23:45.759 --> 00:23:48.480 and I told him before he left he just a delightful guy. It was 328 00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:52.079 that same way as a as an umpire as well. I said, Eddie, 329 00:23:52.720 --> 00:23:56.160 we need to do some work right here. So I officially gave him 330 00:23:56.200 --> 00:24:00.920 the umpire heavo, you're out of here. Best story at Montague ever told 331 00:24:00.000 --> 00:24:04.640 me was that he intercepted a large Italian sub sandwich that was headed to Tommy 332 00:24:04.720 --> 00:24:10.000 Lasorda's office. He redirected it into the umpires the room at Dodger Stadium. 333 00:24:10.039 --> 00:24:14.440 Yeah, large Italian sandwich headed to Tommy. Amazing, huh, you would 334 00:24:14.440 --> 00:24:17.000 never have thought that, But yeah, he intercepted that. We were talking 335 00:24:17.039 --> 00:24:19.240 about some of the empires that he worked with, and you know, we 336 00:24:19.640 --> 00:24:22.920 asked him a couple of different questions. Steven Nelson asked him, so, 337 00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:29.559 who was the most difficult player that he ever worked with on the field or 338 00:24:29.720 --> 00:24:33.880 against or hard feelings, whatever it may be. So we had some interesting 339 00:24:33.960 --> 00:24:38.160 discussions and it's just nice to bridge back and forth because those guys down they 340 00:24:38.240 --> 00:24:41.440 call him the men in Blue. They have a tough, tough job. 341 00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:45.880 I mean, they're always on the road, and you know, we kind 342 00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:48.359 of talk about it. We talked about one of the umpires the other night 343 00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:52.519 who did not have a good night according to some official scoring in the difference 344 00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:56.319 between cold strikes and called baseballs out of the strike zone. All right, 345 00:24:56.440 --> 00:25:00.359 Rick, I'm going to enjoy this. You're out of here. Time to 346 00:25:00.440 --> 00:25:03.359 move on, David, we're about to start the game.

It's 362 00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:11.599 HLA dot Org David and now what will likely be vasse fielding insults from a 363 00:26:11.720 --> 00:26:15.680 Dodger player. It's an engagement of endearment. This is high and tight, 364 00:26:15.240 --> 00:26:21.160 an exciting game here at Oracle Park yesterday the Dodgers scoring seven runs in the 365 00:26:21.240 --> 00:26:25.359 eleventh inning, and the man that had the best view of all was Dodgers 366 00:26:25.440 --> 00:26:29.359 third base coach Dino Eboldino. Happy Sunday. Thanks a lot for the time, 367 00:26:29.519 --> 00:26:32.680 oh always, Dave, Thank you for having me on. What an 368 00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:37.680 exciting chess match going on even before that eleventh inning, Dino, the five 369 00:26:37.799 --> 00:26:41.319 men infield, who I know you're a big proponent of from your days with 370 00:26:41.440 --> 00:26:45.640 Mike Zoshi. Absolutely, and that's something that I grew a custom, you 371 00:26:45.680 --> 00:26:48.119 know about in the defensive end of it through Mike, and Mike did it, 372 00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:52.079 you know, one thousand percent of the time anytime we were on the 373 00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:55.319 road. But you know, Dave did it yesterday. We're well prepared. 374 00:26:55.400 --> 00:26:57.519 We know what we're doing on the defensive side, where to position guys, 375 00:26:57.559 --> 00:27:02.079 who's the hitter player, know what's what to do when the balls hits. 376 00:27:02.119 --> 00:27:04.799 So I like that. I think our staff liked it, and I was, 377 00:27:06.279 --> 00:27:07.319 you know, I know Dave is a big part of it. And 378 00:27:07.440 --> 00:27:11.720 yesterday, you know, he put it in play. And you know what 379 00:27:11.880 --> 00:27:15.920 David shows that you know, puts a little pressure on the hitter. He 380 00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:18.119 has to get a ball up in the zone, he has to hit a 381 00:27:18.200 --> 00:27:22.359 fly ball, he might have sworn a pitches that he's not customedly swinging at. 382 00:27:22.440 --> 00:27:26.279 So put the pressure on them and big k from you know, Hudson 383 00:27:26.359 --> 00:27:29.480 getting their Bailey on that in that moment. That's a great point. That's 384 00:27:29.519 --> 00:27:32.720 why we come to dino Ebol. And in that four run fourth inning, 385 00:27:33.000 --> 00:27:37.119 you made an aggressive send on Gavin Lux's base hit to right field. Jason 386 00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:41.839 Hayward certainly made Patrick Bailey a little bit nervous bearing down on him absolutely. 387 00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:45.599 And you know there's times and I tell you all the time and I and 388 00:27:45.720 --> 00:27:48.519 I say this, and I truly mean this. I'm not a perfect third 389 00:27:48.559 --> 00:27:52.400 base coach, but I do I know, I know the process of it, 390 00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:55.640 you know, the inning, the outs and all that stuff that the 391 00:27:55.720 --> 00:27:59.039 outfielders arm. And right there, I felt like, right now we need 392 00:27:59.119 --> 00:28:03.400 a little push and and I told Jason after the any way to go away, 393 00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:06.880 to run through the base and a big body coming at home play you 394 00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:08.519 just you know, I know there's no more the running the catcher over, 395 00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:12.000 but there's still some presence there. I pushed the envelope a little bit and 396 00:28:12.440 --> 00:28:15.440 we got a break there when he missed the ball. Dodger's third base coach 397 00:28:15.519 --> 00:28:19.079 dio Ebol is our guest. All right, let's fast forward to that seven 398 00:28:19.200 --> 00:28:25.400 run eleventh inning. What was it like being in the coaches box and obviously 399 00:28:25.559 --> 00:28:29.720 see that avalanche happen. Yeah, it was impressive inning from our hitters. 400 00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:33.079 Right away. I felt like when Shohey was up there with you know, 401 00:28:33.200 --> 00:28:37.039 a man on second base, I thought Bob was gonna do what he did 402 00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:40.799 and he walked him. And what a clutch double for Will Smith. There's 403 00:28:40.839 --> 00:28:45.200 there's the opportunity that Will shines in big moaning, the game, extra innings, 404 00:28:45.880 --> 00:28:48.759 packed house, and he delivers the big double. It puts us over 405 00:28:48.799 --> 00:28:52.759 the edge and then it just a carousel. Everybody was. They were passing 406 00:28:52.799 --> 00:28:56.319 the baton, they were swinging at good pitches, the pitcher was giving us 407 00:28:56.400 --> 00:28:59.559 pitches to hit, and we exploded for seven. But the thing that I 408 00:28:59.640 --> 00:29:03.359 got sided on was Jason a triple down the line for a veteran player coming 409 00:29:03.400 --> 00:29:07.880 around and head diving at third base and getting up showing that emotion. Man, 410 00:29:07.960 --> 00:29:11.119 I got the chills out there. It fired me up. And I 411 00:29:11.160 --> 00:29:14.279 looked in our dugout and everybody was on their feet. So big, big 412 00:29:14.359 --> 00:29:17.519 inning. For us and a lot of runs in that moment. Was that 413 00:29:17.680 --> 00:29:22.039 the baseball gods rewarding Jason Hayward for making the right baseball play in the tenth 414 00:29:22.119 --> 00:29:26.359 inning to move the gifted runner to third base. There's no doubt about it. 415 00:29:26.440 --> 00:29:29.359 And for me standing out in that box, I thought, that's a 416 00:29:29.440 --> 00:29:33.119 team at bat where you know, a left handed hitter get a guy over, 417 00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:37.519 and Jason forgot about his own self ego and he just put it to 418 00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:38.920 play, like, hey, this is gonna be a team at bat. 419 00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:41.519 I'm gonna do everything I can to move a runner over, and then he 420 00:29:41.640 --> 00:29:47.480 delivers big in the eleventh, which it was exciting to watch. It's ironic 421 00:29:47.599 --> 00:29:52.240 because before yesterday's game, Dino Ebol was telling me about team at bats, 422 00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:56.680 how many at bats a player has to sacrifice the entire season. And you 423 00:29:56.799 --> 00:30:00.519 had the utmost veteran leader do that in the tenth inning, right, And 424 00:30:00.640 --> 00:30:04.440 that's something I learned long time ago. And you know your big horses on 425 00:30:04.519 --> 00:30:08.400 your team. You're gonna get six hundred and fifty seven hundred played appearances, 426 00:30:08.839 --> 00:30:12.279 and there's maybe five to ten good at bats a year where you're gonna give 427 00:30:12.319 --> 00:30:17.000 yourself up. You're gonna have a guy on second base move a runner over. 428 00:30:17.839 --> 00:30:19.319 Those are the team at bats and we were talking about it yesterday and 429 00:30:19.400 --> 00:30:22.400 it came in to play with Jason yesterday. All Right, there's the man, 430 00:30:22.720 --> 00:30:26.200 Dodgers third base coach, Dino Ebel, a wealth of knowledge and the 431 00:30:26.279 --> 00:30:30.839 Dodgers are certainly fortunate to have him back in the organization. We'll send it 432 00:30:30.880 --> 00:30:33.759 back to you in the studio, Tim, all right, thanks a lot, 433 00:30:33.839 --> 00:30:37.319 DV.

Thank you, Tim. 470 00:33:08.240 --> 00:33:10.920 All right, well, we're getting closer to first pitch in the series finale. 471 00:33:12.039 --> 00:33:15.119 The Dodgers have a chance to They've already clinched the winning road trip, 472 00:33:15.200 --> 00:33:16.880 but they want to take both series today, series on the line against the 473 00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:21.920 rival Giants the final series here in San Francisco in twenty twenty four. But 474 00:33:22.119 --> 00:33:25.359 believe it or not, for these two clubs, they only got one more 475 00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:31.400 series left after this that's in July at Dodgers Stadium. So it's just weird 476 00:33:31.440 --> 00:33:37.039 to see play against San Francisco wrapping up before August. Yeah, and you're 477 00:33:37.079 --> 00:33:43.680 finished coming to San Francisco before the first of July, and then during the 478 00:33:43.759 --> 00:33:46.720 month of July, you're finished with the Giants. Period. But the Dodgers 479 00:33:46.799 --> 00:33:51.759 have won six of the eight played against his ball club. You mentioned a 480 00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:54.480 winning road trip. Yes, indeed, four and one swept that series in 481 00:33:54.559 --> 00:33:59.119 Chicago, And I think realistically the Dodgers when they barked upon this road trip, 482 00:33:59.200 --> 00:34:01.039 we're thinking, hey, look, we need to go five and one 483 00:34:01.680 --> 00:34:06.960 since you're going against the White Sox, the lowly White Sox and the standings, 484 00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:08.639 and a ball club that is really having some difficulty, that being the 485 00:34:08.679 --> 00:34:13.880 San Francisco Giants, who are twelve games behind the Dodgers as we start today. 486 00:34:14.639 --> 00:34:16.320 Coming up after this series, of course, the off day Monday, 487 00:34:16.519 --> 00:34:22.039 and then a six game homestand you have the kind of fledgling Arizona Diamondbacks who 488 00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:25.000 just cannot get anything rolling consistently. And then after that the Milwaukee Brewers. 489 00:34:25.599 --> 00:34:30.800 One more thing before this finale, I have to ask you about Shoeotani because 490 00:34:30.039 --> 00:34:35.599 now hits home run yesterday, number twenty six on the year, twelve games 491 00:34:35.639 --> 00:34:39.519 in the leadoff spot, and again it looks beyond comfortable there. Twelve games 492 00:34:39.599 --> 00:34:45.800 the leadoffs, body's hit four to nineteen nine home runs, eighteen runs batted 493 00:34:45.840 --> 00:34:49.559 in. He's also scored sixteen runs. He's a guy, I will continue 494 00:34:49.639 --> 00:34:52.719 to say. When he's about to come up to bat, nobody leaves their 495 00:34:52.800 --> 00:34:57.760 seats. It is just amazing what he has done. You talk about a 496 00:34:57.880 --> 00:35:01.320 table setter, He's set a fit very large table at a fourteen game on 497 00:35:01.480 --> 00:35:06.480 bay Streak for show Hey entering Sunday. Well, next time you hear from 498 00:35:06.559 --> 00:35:08.199 us, Tim, we will be welcoming show. Hey, Otani to the 499 00:35:08.239 --> 00:35:13.159 played against the San Francisco opener.
