13
00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:50.520
There is only one person that can
give us that for him. Yes,

14
00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:57.799
only one. That man is Kevin
Figures. No, that man is Vic

15
00:00:57.880 --> 00:01:04.840
the Brick with the daily haikup At
and Vic Good Afternoon. He made a

16
00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:11.760
connection to Japanese culture at Dodger Stadium
meeting Yuki, Fred Rogan, Hello,

17
00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:22.000
Vic. You know Fred Yuki translates
to snow in English. Really he is

18
00:01:22.079 --> 00:01:26.680
snow. And she had a white
kimono on a snow white kimona. It

19
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:30.680
was not white. What color was? It was blue and green in the

20
00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:34.319
mixed color. What do you talk? Color's wrong with you? It wasn't

21
00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:38.280
white, No, not even clothes. No. I think it was white.

22
00:01:38.359 --> 00:01:41.640
But it had blue and green in
it. No, no, no,

23
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:47.599
the primary color was blue. Yes, it was. Oh my god,

24
00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:49.400
where did you get white from?
There was no white in it?

25
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:53.120
I don't think, Kevin. I
think it was. It was fully the

26
00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:57.000
primary like dominant blue. At some
other green mixtures in there, and some

27
00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:00.359
other little colors, but predominantly blue. And Fred, weren't you standing right

28
00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:05.840
there? Fred? I mean you
were standing right there? You he stalked

29
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:09.319
her and chased her down. She
was wearing white. What in the world.

30
00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:13.360
No, you're right, it was
I'm sorry it was blow. Let's

31
00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:20.080
let's let's just relive it. You
mentioned all of these people. But now

32
00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:23.039
I've got the key person of the
day. Okay, what is your name?

33
00:02:23.439 --> 00:02:27.639
This is Yuki? Okay, lady, Yes, and you are dressed

34
00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:30.360
in a full kimono, So why
are you dressed this way today? And

35
00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:37.759
what what are you here for?
Because it's a barely special lay because opening

36
00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:43.520
Dodger Stadium and this is the first
time for me to come to Dodger's Stadium.

37
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:47.360
So weirdy kimono because very special day. So that's right, beautiful okay,

38
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:52.840
And are you here because Otani's on
the team. Yes, yeah,

39
00:02:52.879 --> 00:03:00.319
Otanni. I like I love I
like his baseball playing. Yes, And

40
00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:04.960
I gonna say, what do you
want to say? You liked his baseball

41
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:07.479
play, you like him as a
person, you think he is great,

42
00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:13.280
you think he is a god,
he is your religion? Is that correct?

43
00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:15.520
What are we doing? There?
You go? I'm just saying ask

44
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:19.479
her she saw the stone lantern?
Oh did you see the lantern outside the

45
00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:24.199
big stone lantern when you came in? It's up by Jackie Robinson. Familiar

46
00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:29.319
with him. Oh there we go? All right, all right, beautiful,

47
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:32.360
beautiful and one of the thing and
we love it. That's all one

48
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:37.439
here. Yes, absolutely, you
look fantastic. Well, thank you for

49
00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:39.039
doing this. Thank you so much. Okay, there you go, go,

50
00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:45.439
Yuki, There you go, Vicky
was Yuki was delightful delightful, and

51
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:53.439
she was in a blue kimono apparently
not white like her name snow Man.

52
00:03:53.639 --> 00:03:59.719
He was totally immersed an Opening day
festivities, from the majestic flyover to his

53
00:03:59.800 --> 00:04:06.319
so an r J on the blue
carpet Pete Serve. By the way,

54
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:14.879
is it fair to say the Dodgers
honestly have the best flyover since sports?

55
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:18.720
The greatest? Love the flyovers at
the stadium? Yeah, those are the

56
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:25.399
best. I think they should have
one for every game. Why not?

57
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:33.000
Might cost a little bit, I
think. Yeah. He is pure rapture

58
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:44.519
at the ravine. Kevin figures you
on and he is reborn. Every Opening

59
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:50.279
Day he watched the game on his
bamboo TV. Y'all, King Flavor,

60
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:56.160
Yeah, do you really have a
bamboo TV? Are you really born?

61
00:04:56.600 --> 00:05:00.800
I wish I did. I was
blissing out on the blue. It's a

62
00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:06.160
perfect first taste. At the stadium, the fans were unbelievable sold out,

63
00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:16.279
fueling this wonderful frenzy. Muki Otani
Freddy, Oh, look at me,

64
00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:21.240
I'm giddy Moki and Freddy went deep. Otani signed, I'm crying because we've

65
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:30.399
got Muki. You're telling me seventeen
single double walk first at bat, so

66
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:39.519
many moving parts. Yee ya ya
yah. The pitch to Otani, who

67
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:43.000
swings and pulls a base hit in
the right field. It gets to the

68
00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:47.120
corner, Muki's on his horse to
third stops signed from Dino Eagle, but

69
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:51.160
show Hey, Otani didn't see it, Goldschmid has it, and Otani's caught

70
00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:55.839
in a rundown. Now Mason win
the shortstop. He is basically going to

71
00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:59.480
run this play out. So the
opposite of heads up, the head was

72
00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:02.480
down base running from show he Otani. So instead of second and third,

73
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:06.120
nobody out for the Dodgers, it's
bets on third. Otani back to the

74
00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:16.000
dugout with one away. I totally
understand what happened. That player obviously a

75
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:23.240
base running blood down. Tim McCarver, let's go, but thought, you

76
00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:26.519
know, Anthony ren Don was was
going to bat behind him, so he

77
00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:30.199
wanted the extra base. He has
to get used to the fact that the

78
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:35.360
Dodgers are so stacked that just get
the double. Mookie's at third. You

79
00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:40.120
Freddy, you got Freddy coming up? Angel PTSD is what you're saying,

80
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:46.079
Vic, exactly Will Spender's coming up
months he's coming up. Mirrors is coming

81
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:47.600
up. However, you know,
so he's got to get used to the

82
00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:57.519
fact who is Via a minute,
can I remember is everybody's coming up?

83
00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:01.920
He's got to understand again and Anthony
Rendon is gone. They're going to sign

84
00:07:02.040 --> 00:07:06.120
him mirrors. Here's the thing.
I think you've done a good job analyzing

85
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:09.319
that, and I think you've given
it a lot of thought, and I

86
00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:12.759
think we can all appreciate that.
You could also look at it like this.

87
00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:16.319
Old Tani just ran with his head
down. You could take that approach

88
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:23.399
too. Absolutely he did. But
first at bat there was a lot going

89
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:27.519
through Atani's head, you know,
slash it into right field. It was

90
00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:34.879
sensational. But again, Game one
was perfect. How about how about Tyler?

91
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:38.839
Can we give it up for some
glass now? Love out of Santa

92
00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:44.720
Clarita. Sure, sensational stadium debut
six months, forte frames, just one

93
00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:51.600
run two Its filthy slider and you
all borrow with the three inning save the

94
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:56.319
rubber arm, rubber arm man,
Oh movie, Mookie, the three games?

95
00:07:56.319 --> 00:07:59.079
What do you think Mooki is hitting
after three games? Dodgers two trying

96
00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:01.120
because we've got more? What's what's
Mookie hitting? What do you guys say,

97
00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:11.800
six twenty seven, six thirty six. Ooh, I was right there,

98
00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:18.120
he you were. I'm crying because
we got Mukie. How about Otani?

99
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:22.120
After the game, he says,
I'm the only guy who couldn't hit

100
00:08:22.120 --> 00:08:26.040
a home of the top three.
I thought that was very funny. Ohtani

101
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:33.000
went out to say, I'm grateful
for the fans and so many of them.

102
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:41.799
So just a tremendous stay at the
stadium. Yee yeah, yea,

103
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:46.200
you were sorely missed at the broadcast. Vic, I'll say that, yes,

104
00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:50.600
we were over unders on how long
it would have taken Lon Rozan to

105
00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:54.480
throw you off of the field when
you were you're a Dodger poncho. Yes,

106
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:56.440
it was a kimono underneath. You
try to tackle Muki when he's out

107
00:08:56.440 --> 00:09:03.120
there trying to do drills before the
game. I definitely would have done some

108
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:09.840
conversation with with Yuki, and I
definitely would have had some sort of kimono

109
00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:13.480
esque flavor as well. But you
know, to celebrate the great opening day,

110
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:18.039
my beloved bride, you can suck
them out on myself. You know,

111
00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:20.919
we're lucky enough to have a cherry
blossom tree. We went, we

112
00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:26.799
went to the cherry blossom tree where
the blossoms are now, Oh wow,

113
00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:31.720
blossoming your own cherry blossom tree.
Have absolutely went to the tree and Uko

114
00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:39.240
and I just just enjoyed the blossoms
because right now everything is blossoming as the

115
00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:43.320
dodgers are blossoming. Vic, can
I get an offspring of your cherry blossom

116
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:46.600
tree? I need to get that. It's gonna be a perfect gift for

117
00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:54.519
Holly. This is this is a
beautiful and right now they're bossing. Yeah.

118
00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:58.480
No, Son has sending me shots
every day of the cherry blossoms and

119
00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:05.720
until and then all around Japan.
It's amazing. It's amazing. I know

120
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:07.720
you don't think so when you just
talk about oh, cherry but just a

121
00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:13.039
flower, but when you do happen
to see it, nothing like it.

122
00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:16.840
Vic. Did you get that at
Bonzi World? What'd you get it?

123
00:10:16.919 --> 00:10:20.440
Vic? That's a good That would
be a great store to start shopping at

124
00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:26.559
Bonsi World. No. I had
knacka Gawasan was He's a Japanese gardener who

125
00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:33.879
when we first moved into Whittier,
I was taking care of our backyard and

126
00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:37.759
we asked them to plant a cherry
tree, and like George Washington, we've

127
00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:41.360
been getting blossoms for so many years. We're blessed, blessed that we got

128
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:48.480
the blossoming. And if you remember
the movie Last Summer I with Ken talking

129
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:52.440
to Tom Cruise, you know Tom
Cruise was learning the ways of the Warrior.

130
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:56.039
They shot that in your yard.
No oh, but what to Nab

131
00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:03.480
says to Tom Cruise. You know
they were standing under a blossoming cherry tree,

132
00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:11.879
and he says, just to find
a perfect blossom would not be a

133
00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:18.879
waste of your life. Just this
journey of finding a perfect blossom. Vic

134
00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:22.159
did you and you go go outside
into the yard, walk up to the

135
00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:28.240
tree and just stare at it.
We we enjoy the blossoms absolutely. For

136
00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:37.799
him, right after the Dodge of
Victory, it was a it's beautiful,

137
00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:43.039
it's beautiful moment. You'll have a
few days. Remember it's gonna rain this

138
00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:46.159
weekend. All the blossoms will probably
be pelted off by the rain. But

139
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:50.000
you usually have about a week to
enjoy the blossoms and then they're all gone.

140
00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:54.960
It's very fleeting, it's very symbolic. You can enjoy the wonderful blossoming

141
00:11:56.080 --> 00:12:00.360
cherry blossoms like Vick is describing so
eloquently. Right here in Burbank off of

142
00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:03.799
Hollywood Way, there are numerous cherry
blossom trees that line Hollywood Way here in

143
00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:07.919
Burbank. Fred's what downe by CBS
going that way? Yeah? Sure,

144
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:11.399
just going going north from here from
the radio station to the north on Hollywood

145
00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:16.080
Way. Yeah, the airport.
I enjoyed those cherry blossoms coming into work

146
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:18.679
today. As a matter of fact, did you stare at them as Vic

147
00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:22.279
stared? Long? Not as long
as Vic? Because I was driving.

148
00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:24.480
Oh so you could have pulled off, and no, I didn't think it

149
00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:28.759
was necessary. Will you take a
picture of the cherry blossoms next week and

150
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:31.759
send it to me. I'll do
it today, Fred, and my drive

151
00:12:31.799 --> 00:12:33.559
home. That would be kind,
all right, thank you? And the

152
00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:39.600
cherry blossoms are blooming right before our
eyes. I'll are your Dodgers. Yeah,

153
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:52.960
how about the angels opener? Donal
looked like Tom Sandoval from h Vanda

154
00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:58.279
Pump Rules. He never got out
of the second any That was a good

155
00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:01.320
pop culture friend, Sarah Vic.
I'll give you a I'll give you a

156
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:03.720
point for that, Okay, a
little bit look CHARTI went. So that

157
00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:13.279
was it. You guys excited about
Beyonce's new album. It's just Yeah Today

158
00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:22.960
just drop Runny Yes, oh yeah, doing old Dolly parton Joe Lene as

159
00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:30.679
one of the twenty seven tracks on
the album over five years in the making,

160
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:37.440
Country Carter, Beyonce, lush vehicle, country country Carter in the mix

161
00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:43.440
with Beyonce, it's cowboy Carter Vic
corrections and attacks. It's cowboy Carter Vic.

162
00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:48.879
Sorry my mistake. I'm calling the
country Carter big, putting his own

163
00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:56.440
spin on it. Post Mallon's on
it, Willie Nelson, Yeah, Miley

164

166
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:18.320
exciting stuff. Yeah. If you're
a New York Mets fan, you had

167
00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:22.679
Allows the opening day by the Way
City Field Today and Queen's one hit.

168
00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:28.200
Do you see the benches clear,
You see the benches dominated by Milwaukee?

169
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:33.799
Yeah? Yeah see. I figure
Vic would think the Reheese Hoskins Eric McNeil

170
00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:41.080
was just a classic old school hardball
play. He slid into he slid into

171
00:14:41.159 --> 00:14:46.639
him. That's fine, that is
that's old school that's huss that's how you

172
00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:54.679
play baseball. It's hardball. Well, Vic, you know where that's going

173
00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:58.039
to take us to, to the
source for it. Yes, m the

174
00:14:58.159 --> 00:15:05.559
high Cow for you March twenty ninth, and it's all about the Dodgers.

00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:11.039
home stretch. Rodey Pete fred Rogan. A beautiful Friday, Friday Friday.

193
00:17:11.559 --> 00:17:14.680
Let's go for it, all right, let's go, let's go out to

194
00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:18.680
the stadium. Welcome on, David
Van Say Dave, good afternoon. Wow,

195
00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:22.200
you want more of me today?
After yesterday? You want more of

196
00:17:22.279 --> 00:17:26.799
me? You know what, Maybe
I'm a glutton for punishment, but we

197
00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:33.200
can't get enough. He It was
a great day yesterday from the start to

198
00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:40.200
the finish. Definitely. Mother Nature
cooperated gave us another beautiful day at Dodgers

199
00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:45.839
Stadium for an opening day and Dot
Brian Cranston was a star with the introductions

200
00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:51.119
and the MVPs put on a show. So did Tyler Glassnow, so I

201
00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:53.359
don't know what else you would want
if you came to the game yesterday.

202
00:17:53.599 --> 00:17:57.160
Well, when you speak of the
MVPs. Dave Rodney and I were chopping

203
00:17:57.160 --> 00:18:00.920
this up earlier. I mean,
care about it is one thing to think

204
00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:03.519
about it as one thing. My
god, to see all three of them

205
00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:07.680
up there, one after the other
after the other, that that is really

206
00:18:07.759 --> 00:18:14.160
imposing for the other team. Yeah, what point does the pitcher have any

207
00:18:14.240 --> 00:18:17.839
chance to really exhale? And then
after you're done with those three guys,

208
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:22.960
you have to deal with Will Smith
and Max Munsey and James Outman and Tioscar

209
00:18:22.079 --> 00:18:29.400
Hernandez all threats to go deep as
well. So this this offense is going

210
00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:33.119
to score runs. That's not going
to be an issue. You just hope

211
00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:38.039
on those nights where pitching is really
good that their defense will cooperate. Yeah,

212
00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:41.839
yeah, it's it and we'll get
to the defense. But it's scary

213
00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:45.920
to think about that because one or
two of those guys can be off.

214
00:18:47.039 --> 00:18:49.319
And I know we're all focused on
the top three and the MVPs and all

215
00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:53.799
that, but like you mentioned Will
Smith, Max Monsey, I think Will

216
00:18:53.799 --> 00:18:59.279
Smith's gonna have a big year as
well. But Max Munsey and Tiascar and

217
00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:03.680
Jason Hayward and Gavin Luck, I
mean it feels like Gavin Luck hitting night

218
00:19:03.480 --> 00:19:07.640
is another leadoff guy. Man.
Every time we looked up Dave, it's

219
00:19:07.680 --> 00:19:12.839
felt like the top of the lineup
was up right. And that's the problem

220
00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:18.160
as well. You're gonna get for
us other teams, they're going to get

221
00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:22.960
four or five looks at the first
three guys in that order and then the

222
00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:26.759
rest of those guys. So,
like I said, the offense, it's

223
00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:34.119
stronger than it was top to bottom
last year. What hopefully they can keep

224
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:40.640
everybody healthy? What what does what
is concerning you so far? Dave?

225
00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:45.720
With the defense as we look in
the first three games of the season and

226
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:51.319
starting to go forward, well,
I feel like for the Dodgers it's that

227
00:19:51.440 --> 00:19:56.559
left side of the infield. Are
you going to keep Mooki healthy? Well,

228
00:19:56.599 --> 00:20:00.480
obviously Dave doesn't have the answer to
that because that's when we just lost

229
00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:03.599
him. Are you going to keep
Molchi healthy? That is, did we

230
00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:07.079
lose him or did he just oh
he's paused, he just paused, Dave?

231
00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:12.720
You back, Yeah, I just
feel like honestly, so yesterday was

232
00:20:12.759 --> 00:20:18.640
not an issue defensively, but as
the season unfolds, especially the first two

233
00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:22.519
months and when the Dodgers go on
the road, and colder weather, and

234
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:26.359
there are going to be days that
pitching is going to be better than hitting

235
00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:30.519
is. Are they going to be
able to make plays in close in late

236
00:20:30.599 --> 00:20:34.279
games? That's the only thing.
It's not something that I'm worried about twenty

237
00:20:34.319 --> 00:20:38.000
four to seven because they have a
lot of talent to make up for certain

238
00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:45.200
things. But I think as the
season goes on, that's something if you

239
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:48.519
had a poke a hole in this
team, that would be it. Is

240
00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:52.640
it something day that it'll get better
with time or the guys are just who

241
00:20:52.680 --> 00:20:56.920
they are. I think it's who
they are. The only way it could

242
00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:04.359
get better is if we know the
Dodgers decide Mooki Betts playing shortstop most days

243
00:21:04.599 --> 00:21:10.440
is not good for him or the
team. It's you want to It's not

244
00:21:10.519 --> 00:21:14.720
just about making the plays. It's
about keeping guys healthy. And shortstop puts

245
00:21:14.759 --> 00:21:18.519
a lot of different wear and tear
on a body, and that's why most

246
00:21:18.640 --> 00:21:25.119
players leave that position in their thirties. They don't move to that position in

247
00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:29.279
their thirties. Yeah, and that's
a valid point. You know, we

248
00:21:29.319 --> 00:21:32.400
talked to Dave Roberts about it yesterday. You have talked to him as well,

249
00:21:32.799 --> 00:21:37.000
and Molky's going to be there until
I decide maybe it's not a good

250
00:21:37.000 --> 00:21:38.559
idea for him light in the games, or if they have to move him.

251
00:21:38.559 --> 00:21:41.240
But for the foreseeable future, Dave, he's there. He's not going

252
00:21:41.279 --> 00:21:45.400
anywhere. Well, you saw it
yesterday. It was a blowout game and

253
00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:52.160
they brought in Miguel Rojas to play
shortstop and they moved Mooky to second base.

254
00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:57.000
So maybe that's their way of load
managing, and we'll see how it

255
00:21:57.039 --> 00:22:00.119
looks today. As far as the
starting lineup, we haven't seen it yet,

256
00:22:00.519 --> 00:22:03.720
but there's a lefty on the mount
for the Cardinals. Are the Dodgers

257
00:22:03.759 --> 00:22:10.960
going to opt to have Mookie play
second base and then go with with somebody

258
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:15.599
else at shortstop, because the plan
seems to be they're going to platoon Gavin

259
00:22:15.680 --> 00:22:22.279
Lux against righty's and have a lefty
and excuse me, have him in there

260
00:22:22.319 --> 00:22:27.240
against righty's and then have a right
handed hitter against left handed pitching like today.

261
00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:33.400
So I'll be interested to see our
first look at the Dodgers lineup against

262
00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:37.799
southpaw southpaw pitchers. I mean,
and Chris Taylor could get a nod here

263
00:22:37.799 --> 00:22:44.160
too. No, yeah, for
sure, he would probably he could possibly

264
00:22:44.200 --> 00:22:48.240
be at second base, or they
can play him in left field and fly

265
00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:53.759
Taoscar Hernandez to right field for Jason
Hayward. Yeah, Todd of glassn as

266
00:22:53.759 --> 00:22:56.799
you mentioned, had a good day. How did he feel? How did

267
00:22:56.839 --> 00:23:02.319
you feel the team field? I
keep before at his opening home start,

268
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:08.079
I thought it was all around a
great day. I feel like Glass now

269
00:23:08.319 --> 00:23:12.920
was incredible. Oh, Tani was
incredible. I think everybody. I thought

270
00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:18.640
everybody performed in one of those rare
occasions in a sporting event that everybody that

271
00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:25.319
you had high expectations for performed at
a high level. And for Tyler Glassnow,

272
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:30.279
it must have been special for him
because he grew up in Santa Clarita,

273
00:23:30.680 --> 00:23:37.359
grew up Dodger fan the Kershaw pitch
at the beginning his career, and

274
00:23:37.400 --> 00:23:44.960
then yesterday he was sharing and pitching
six dominant innings. So storybook day for

275
00:23:45.039 --> 00:23:48.359
Tyler glassnow especially. All right,
well, Dave, we appreciate you coming

276
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:56.839
on, enjoy your weekend, and
thanks, and there he goes, Okay,

277
00:23:57.160 --> 00:24:00.400
we're having some good crowded at the
stadium already there, Freddy, Yeah,

278
00:24:02.119 --> 00:24:04.720
yeah, by the way, did
you have any trouble getting out after

279
00:24:04.759 --> 00:24:11.079
the game. Uh, you know
what? Not really, not really,

280
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:15.839
I didn't. I mean I didn't
park in your special, special special spot

281
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:21.000
and leave from your special special location
best place to park, period. I'm

282
00:24:21.000 --> 00:24:25.960
still confused about what that really is
and where that is and how you exit

283
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:29.400
the actual parking lot. You don't
want to, but you don't, you

284
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:32.319
really don't. I don't, all
right, I don't get it. Here's

285
00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:37.160
what you do. You drive and
you go to lot A F to maybe

286
00:24:37.559 --> 00:24:42.920
yes, it's after eye okay,
go to F so and and proximity of

287
00:24:44.000 --> 00:24:48.440
the stadium when you're looking at the
field, where is Lot F parking?

288
00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:52.799
Would it be left field field?
Left field? Okay? It's out below

289
00:24:53.119 --> 00:24:57.440
below Lot D, which is the
you know, employee, go a little

290
00:24:57.480 --> 00:25:00.559
further, interest, a little further. It's a lot, okay. It's

291
00:25:00.880 --> 00:25:04.720
so if you're coming that way,
you'd make a left into it. You're

292
00:25:04.759 --> 00:25:08.200
coming which way? If you're coming
by D, No, you make a

293
00:25:08.279 --> 00:25:12.319
right into it? No? Yes, no, And you make a left

294
00:25:12.319 --> 00:25:15.799
into it. Yeah. So it's
not next to the statements on the other

295
00:25:15.799 --> 00:25:18.119
side. Yes, it's a cross. It's like you make a right into

296
00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:21.079
D. Right, you make a
left into F. Okay, okay.

297
00:25:21.359 --> 00:25:23.799
So if you come in that way. When you come in, make an

298
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:27.599
immediate right. Make an immediate right
in F okay, drive down to the

299
00:25:27.720 --> 00:25:30.920
end. Then you'll make a left
and you'll start going up and you'll see

300
00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:36.200
where the exit is. Right.
You'll see where the other entrance exit is

301
00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:38.519
for F. When you see that, you'll see a light pole. When

302
00:25:38.519 --> 00:25:44.759
you see the light pole, make
a left and pull in directly next to

303
00:25:44.799 --> 00:25:48.920
the light pole. That is the
number one spot. Park next to the

304
00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:52.839
light pole. When you park in
that light by that light pole, and

305
00:25:52.880 --> 00:25:56.519
you're you're already pointed as if you're
going to leave the I don't care what

306
00:25:56.559 --> 00:26:00.079
time it is. I don't care
if it's been twenty three innings or or

307
00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:03.000
if it's nine innings or whatever time
you leave. Go to that spot,

308
00:26:03.119 --> 00:26:07.680
get in your car. All you
do is start it, make a right,

309
00:26:07.799 --> 00:26:11.720
and you're out. That's the spot, the number one spot lot started

310
00:26:11.759 --> 00:26:14.240
to make a right and you're out, And what freeway are you hitting?

311
00:26:15.119 --> 00:26:18.759
It will take you down to what
not stadium? Waite, It'll take you

312
00:26:18.839 --> 00:26:22.279
down. If you go out that
way, you'll go down. You'll make

313
00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:26.440
a right and you'll be on what
academy you'll be an academy and it'll take

314
00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:30.920
you up and it'll get you to
the five. Oh okay, okay,

315
00:26:32.000 --> 00:26:34.279
I'm gonna try that. You should
try it. That's the number one spot,

316
00:26:34.440 --> 00:26:38.039
all right. Either I'll be celebrating
you and giving you a call.

317
00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:41.400
You will or I'm going to be
cussing you out. You will not.

318
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:44.119
You will know if you go to
that spot, you will find out.

319
00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:48.400
Holly will say, this is the
best spot. It is. There's one.

320
00:26:48.519 --> 00:26:51.640
It's by that light pole because nobody
can park on the other side of

321
00:26:51.680 --> 00:26:56.759
you. So you've got one side
that there's nobody next to you, and

322
00:26:56.039 --> 00:27:00.519
the other side somebody is. But
it's just like a straight shot at one

323
00:27:00.559 --> 00:27:03.359
spot. Or is just an area
where you know, there's only so many

324
00:27:03.359 --> 00:27:06.759
cars that you can park in that
spot. That's a fair question. This

325
00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:11.160
area only will support if you look
at it, so many cars. But

326
00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:18.640
it's that spot that gets you straight
out. It's at it's at very spot.

327
00:27:18.839 --> 00:27:22.079
I'm just saying, all right,
okay, rkay. So listen,
