As the Dodgers get 6 00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:32.200 ready to take on the Kansas City Royals, Dodgers forty three and twenty nine 7 00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:35.920 on this season, first place atop the NL West, a seven and a 8 00:00:35.960 --> 00:00:39.679 half game lead in the division going into play today. After splitting the first 9 00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:43.280 two games of this series, the Dodgers now go for the series win over 10 00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:46.920 Kansas City. No better guy to have on the mound than Tyler Glass, 11 00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:51.000 now long overdue for a win. He's on the mount in the series finale. 12 00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:54.799 First bitch from Dodgers Stadium is coming up at one ten. Between then 13 00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:58.679 and now, we got a lot to get to here on Morogo Casino Dodgers 14 00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:02.000 on Deck, we'll hear from the manager, Dave Roberts, will get you 15 00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:07.079 an update on Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who left the game last night after two innings 16 00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:11.120 with Tricep soreness. We'll preview today's pitching matchup. David Vasse goes one on 17 00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:15.840 one with Dino Ebel. He's a proud dad on this Father's day, his 18 00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:19.879 two boys winning a CIF Division One championship in baseball at Corona High School just 19 00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:23.040 a few weeks ago. Shortly, we'll visit with Kirsen Watson, and in 20 00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:26.079 just a couple of minutes we'll send it over to Rick Monday and Tim Nevern 21 00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:30.400 in the gallupin Motors broadcast both well last night. The Dodgers well got hit 22 00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:34.799 by the injury bug early, then the long ball late. Yoshinobu Yamamoto got 23 00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:38.799 to start the Dodgers right hander did not last long, just two innings, 24 00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:44.280 one hit, twenty eight pitches. He left the game with try Sep soreness. 25 00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.439 Not good news, seeming as though he was given two extra days of 26 00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:51.560 rest between the starts to help alleviate any fatigue that he was experiencing. More 27 00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:55.319 on that coming up throughout the show. The Dodgers were forced to go with 28 00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:59.000 another bullpen game the rest of the way. In the fourth inning, Michael 29 00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:02.200 Grove on in relief, Nick Lofton and RBI ground out and the Royals grabbed 30 00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:06.000 the one to nothing lead. However, in the bottom of the inning, 31 00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:08.680 the Dodgers answered right back. Two on, two out for Gavin Lucks. 32 00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:13.000 And that's gonna be up to Gavin Lux in a one nothing ball game. 33 00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:15.719 He swings hits a ground ball to center. That's a base Hip Freeman will 34 00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:21.439 score coming in behind him as Andy pie his and Gavin Lux didn't waste any 35 00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:24.560 time. On the first pitch he seas it's a two out, two run 36 00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:29.520 single and the Dodgers lead it two to one. Two runs single to the 37 00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:31.719 center for the Lucks RBIs fifteen and sixteen. That's the top tier play of 38 00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:36.639 the game sponsored by Arco Quality, top tier gas for less. Dodgers up 39 00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:39.080 two to one and the six Blake trying in on in relief. The right 40 00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:43.719 hander has been virtually unhittable since coming off the injured lists well. With one 41 00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:47.639 out, trying and hit back to back to back with walks to load the 42 00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:53.400 bases after striking out Fraser up next came up MJ. Melendez, who at 43 00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:58.319 one point fouled off six straight pitches. On the twelfth pitch of the bats 44 00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:01.560 tried. It made a mistake trying to get himself in hot water. Walking 45 00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:07.000 three in a row. There are two outs and here comes the payoff pitch 46 00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:10.840 from Blake. Runners go Waald has swung on and hit deep to right field, 47 00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:14.800 back to the wall, goes Heyward. He looks up. It is 48 00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:20.680 gone. It's a grand Slam? Are you kidding me? Actually? At 49 00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:25.919 bat of the year for Kansas City, Grand slam for MJ. Mulendez. 50 00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:30.439 Royals took a five to two lead, rough outing for Trying in two thirds 51 00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:32.120 of an inning, four runs, one hit, three walks. The Royals 52 00:03:32.360 --> 00:03:37.319 would tack on two more in the seventh off Anthony Bonda. Kansas City goes 53 00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:39.199 on to beat the Dodgers last night by a final of seven to two. 54 00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:43.520 Seth Lugo gets to win his tenth of this season. He's just the second 55 00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:46.599 pitcher this year to get the double digit victories in baseball. Blake Trying gets 56 00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:50.520 tagged with the loss. Dodgers fall to forty three and twenty nine off the 57 00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:53.039 season. They've now lost three of their last four. However, they maintain 58 00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:57.599 a seven and a half game lead in the division going into play today and 59 00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:00.479 this afternoon. The rubber game of this three game Tyler Glass now on the 60 00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:02.960 mound, first pitch of one to ten and with more we head over to 61 00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:06.800 the Gallpin Motors broadcast booth as we welcome in Rick Monday and Tim Neffert. 62 00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:12.120 Guys, Thank you very much, Tim, gorgeous afternoon for this Father's Day 63 00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:15.839 game at Dodgers Stadium. Happy Father's Day to everybody out there, and should 64 00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:20.000 be a wonderful ball game today. We hope the Dodgers forty three and twenty 65 00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:24.720 nine seven games up on the padres in the National League West, the Royals 66 00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:29.800 winning last night's game seven to two for their forty first win of the season. 67 00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:32.519 They're now ten about five hundred and forty one and thirty one and five 68 00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:38.319 back of the Guardians in the American League Central Division. Dodgers' bats didn't really 69 00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:41.959 play last night. They had some opportunities but couldn't cash in. And it 70 00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:45.800 was the grand slam of MJ. Melendez off of Blake Trinon on the sixth 71 00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:47.920 inning that really turned the game around. Well, turned the game around, 72 00:04:47.920 --> 00:04:53.000 but boy, there's a whole lot that's really kind of counting upon Yoshiobu Yamamoto, 73 00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:57.800 who only went the two winnings. Triceps tightness is what we had been 74 00:04:57.839 --> 00:05:01.800 told during the ballgame is going to be How long will he be out? 75 00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:05.079 If he's going to miss any time at all, Because it goes back to 76 00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:12.639 the Dodgers had to be figuring that something wasn't quite right because we noticed earlier 77 00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:15.800 in the week I'm a moto throwing in the outfield, and yet both pitching 78 00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:19.079 coaches, the general manager, a couple of trainers were out there and throwing. 79 00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:23.000 We were told, well, he was fine, but not fine, 80 00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:27.399 and last night's ball game would put a crunch again on the Dodgers' bullpen, 81 00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:30.040 who did a very good job. You start to look at the bullpen overall, 82 00:05:30.040 --> 00:05:33.079 Oh, try Anda gave up the Grand Slam and lost touch with the 83 00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:36.639 strikes on there and the sixth inning can walk through guys. But overall, 84 00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:42.160 you look at this Dodger bullpen timp They had been absolutely spot on day after 85 00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:45.079 day after day. Last night just a little bit of a trip up and 86 00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:47.560 I get the bats going. Now the Dodgers on Tuesday, you remember, 87 00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:51.079 runs were not a problem against the Rangers. They scored fifteen of them. 88 00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:56.720 But in the four games since they've only scored nine combined, and then those 89 00:05:56.759 --> 00:05:59.120 four games, the Dodgers have lost three of them. Yeah, and not 90 00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:02.000 too many opportunities even with runners in scoring position. Although they had ten last 91 00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:08.120 night, only two hits the night before, only had three opportunities to knock 92 00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:12.040 in a run, and they were zero for five on Thursday in those games. 93 00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:14.920 So the Dodgers need to tighten the belts a little bit more. And 94 00:06:15.199 --> 00:06:18.480 we're beginning now to see a couple of guys and not swinging the bats exceptionally 95 00:06:18.519 --> 00:06:23.319 well. Show Hey Otani the last number of games, he has struggled a 96 00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:26.639 little bit, and Mookie Betts his bat is beginning to warm up. And 97 00:06:26.680 --> 00:06:30.279 we talked about the bottom third of the lineup, and we talked about it 98 00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:32.680 a lot last night before the ballgame, because seven, eight to nine in 99 00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:36.240 that lineup, they're hitting about two eighty or a little bit better if you 100 00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:41.680 look now the last seventeen games. And Cavin Biggio last night striking out three 101 00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:46.439 times, looking including with men on base in key situations. Swinging the bat 102 00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:49.360 a little bit more is something I think the Dodgers would like to see him 103 00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:53.720 do. He's dropped down to one to ninety five. He is nine for 104 00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:58.199 seventy two over his last twenty nine games combined with Toronto and the Dodgers. 105 00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:00.000 Well, I found some numbers on Vigio and you know we had heard and 106 00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:02.920 when he said Toronto, they wanted him to swing the bat a little bit 107 00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:08.519 more often. But the strikeout rate against right handed pitching, if you look 108 00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:13.120 at the cold strikes, forty nine percent of his strikeouts over the last two 109 00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:17.680 years against right handed pitching alone has been cold strikeouts. So the Dodgers and 110 00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:21.240 the Royals getting set for the rubber game of this three game series. Tyler 111 00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:26.079 glasnow looking for a win. He hasn't had one since the fourth of May. 112 00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:29.279 He is six and five.

As we sit here now at 129 00:08:41.559 --> 00:08:46.519 the halfway point, Shoeyotani sitting just two fifteen of the month of jo with 130 00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:48.960 the double, three home runs and fourteen strikeouts.

Hey, 134 00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.559 Kirston now joins us here at Dodger Stadium on this Father's Day before the Dodgers 135 00:09:09.559 --> 00:09:11.440 in Royals final game of this three game set. But the big news today 136 00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:16.279 Kirston, Yoshinobu Yabamoto, Dave Roberts, I know, talked to the media 137 00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:20.559 earlier. Yeah, he's gonna go on the IL And this is something they're 138 00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:24.120 kind of looking at it two different ways. One, it's being more preemptive 139 00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:26.039 just to make sure that they are giving him time to heal, not putting 140 00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:30.480 too much pressure on it. And also the other thing is this is his 141 00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:33.080 first year playing in Major League Baseball, obviously his first year with the Dodgers. 142 00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:35.919 While there has been a lot of communication, they are still learning a 143 00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:41.320 lot about him, so understanding what is the best way to not only just 144 00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:43.559 kind of stop the soreness in his tricep, but also manage it. So 145 00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:48.840 he's not gonna go on the trip to Colorado. He's today He's spending the 146 00:09:48.919 --> 00:09:52.000 day kind of seeing doctors and getting a better understanding some scans, just seeing 147 00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:56.799 kind of where exactly the flare up with that soreness is and his tricep and 148 00:09:56.840 --> 00:10:00.440 how they can best manage it. One of the writers actually brought up a 149 00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:03.240 really interesting point because they were saying that while he was playing in Japan, 150 00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:05.960 he used to use his slider a bit more, but it was leading to 151 00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:09.879 some soreness for him, so he decided to move away from it. If 152 00:10:09.879 --> 00:10:11.480 you look at his outing against the Yankees when he got up to one hundred 153 00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:16.200 and six pitches, a very dominant pitch for him that outing was the slider. 154 00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:18.759 So I think when you're, of course they're looking at that information, 155 00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:22.120 they don't necessarily know what the answers are. He had expressed he was dealing 156 00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:28.320 with some soreness in between these last two starts. That was why they pushed 157 00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:33.000 him back. Originally felt like, well, of course there's still some soreness. 158 00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:35.320 Even yesterday he felt like he was good to go, So of course 159 00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:39.200 he got out there and ultimately, you know, as he was playing, 160 00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:41.799 it kind of flared up on him some more, and so it was the 161 00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:45.720 right decision, of course for him to come out and so hopefully they can 162 00:10:45.759 --> 00:10:50.600 get some more information and if this in the butt early because the postseason is 163 00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:52.000 it feels like it's going to be tomorrow. It's not, but it just 164 00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:54.600 feels like how time is flying, it'll be here sooner than you think. 165 00:10:56.039 --> 00:11:00.360 Michael Grove has been a pleasant surprise for this Dodgers' bullpen, able to to 166 00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:03.080 pitch in consecutive days after being brought up as a starter with the Dodgers in 167 00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:05.919 the minor leagues, and Michael Grove going on the eel as well. He 168 00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:09.679 is, so he's been dealing with a little bit of tightness in his lad 169 00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:13.039 so Dave said he believes that this is going to be a quick iyel stick. 170 00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:16.720 But it's also one of those things where now is the time. You 171 00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:20.519 know, if you're dealing with the flair with something, you've got some tightness 172 00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:24.399 irritation, now is the time to deal with it because it's about to be 173 00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:26.679 the middle of summer. There's also a lot of arms that are working their 174 00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:31.879 way back, including you know, best Casecenar. Considering Yoshinobu going on the 175 00:11:31.919 --> 00:11:35.039 eels, that Bobby Miller's already scheduled to come back next week. He wasn't 176 00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:37.279 like you had to rush him or anything. Then you've got Clayton Kershaw who's 177 00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:41.240 starting his rehab assignment. He'll likely be back. I mean, he's seems 178 00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:45.919 to be progressing really well. So what to give it a couple of weeks, 179 00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:50.559 we could be seeing him maybe July and July. So I think now 180 00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:52.679 is the time. Give the guys rest who need it, allow these other 181 00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:56.759 arms to come in because the most important thing is being ready for October. 182 00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:00.679 So if you can manage that, now, prepare these guys. That's all 183 00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:03.200 you can ask. Playing for the long term, You're playing for the long 184 00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:07.559 term. Curious Charris, appreciate it.

This is 196 00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:07.600 the LA Dodgers Injury Report presented by UCLA Healthy, Official medical partner of the 197 00:13:07.639 --> 00:13:11.080 Los Angeles Dodgers. The big news. Yoshinobu Yamamoto goes on the injured list 198 00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:18.000 right tight tricep tightness. He'll be evaluated today. Michael Grove, Dodger reliever, 199 00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:22.240 also placed on the injured list with lat soreness. Max Munsey already on 200 00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:26.279 the i L with the oblique injury. Bobby Miller right shoulder inflammation. He 201 00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:30.840 is scheduled to come off the IEL on this next road trip in Denver and 202 00:13:30.919 --> 00:13:33.879 pitch against the Rockies. Kyle hurt Wicking making his way back from shoulder inflammation, 203 00:13:35.159 --> 00:13:39.559 Clayton Kershaw, Bruce dar Graderol Ryan Brasier, Tony Gonsolon, Dustin may 204 00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:41.879 All on the sixty day I L Joining them is Joe Kelly, who was 205 00:13:41.919 --> 00:13:46.360 extended to the sixty day IL as soon as he could come off that is 206 00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:50.440 July fifth. All right, let's head back out here for the Dodger skipper 207 00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:54.279 question. Dave, Dave, can you just describe Dave? Can you talk 208 00:13:54.279 --> 00:14:01.279 about the pressure in the dugouts with Dave Roberts, Davie obviously with the team 209 00:14:01.360 --> 00:14:03.960 and lash and you think about all the babies that were born. There are 210 00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:07.320 now a lot of fathers with this group. When you think about some of 211 00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:11.120 them, whether it's their first, second, father's days, how have you 212 00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:13.440 seen a lot of these men just kind of continue to evolve as baseball players, 213 00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:16.159 but really as just kind of who they are off the field and how 214 00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:20.320 it impacts them on the field. I've had a chance, you know, 215 00:14:20.360 --> 00:14:26.799 in real time to watch these guys evolve or grow up. I think that 216 00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:33.080 obviously, there's nothing more perspective driven than being a parent. And so yeah, 217 00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:37.720 they they've changed his men and they've changed his ballplayers. It's been fun 218 00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:43.200 and watching some of these kids grow up and watch these guys grow into fathers. 219 00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:48.480 Last night we saw a game that essentially turned into a bullpen one. 220 00:14:48.519 --> 00:14:50.960 So I guess, first things first, how's Yoshiobu doing today? Did you 221 00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:54.279 get any updates? Did he speak to the doctors just yet? I know 222 00:14:54.320 --> 00:14:58.720 it's still kind of early. I haven't seen him today. We are going 223 00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:03.120 to ail him. He's going to get some testing done. I don't know 224 00:15:03.440 --> 00:15:05.679 the results or when he's going to get it done, but obviously we're going 225 00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:13.000 to do our due diligence. So I don't know what is expected going forward, 226 00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:18.639 but I'm hopeful whatever that means. And then we're also going to put 227 00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:24.879 Michael Grove on the IL just some he had some lat tightness and so just 228 00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:31.879 kind of giving him a little blow. And so we're bringing back JP Firehuisen, 229 00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:37.720 and then also Michael Peterson is going to make his debut. So we've 230 00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:41.919 got coverage and I expect both those guys. I know Michael should be shorter 231 00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:46.519 term and we'll know more. With Yoshinobu, you have a mortalized that. 232 00:15:46.519 --> 00:15:48.600 It sounded like he was kind of downplaying the severity of it. What kind 233 00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:52.600 of cooled you guys, this is an io situation. I just think that 234 00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:56.519 it's uh, you know, a guy that we're still trying to learn a 235 00:15:56.559 --> 00:16:04.080 lot about and appreciate the fact that the most important time of the season is 236 00:16:04.159 --> 00:16:12.200 yet to come and his health is paramount. So for us to be proactive 237 00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:19.120 and put him on the IL kind of reset them seems like the most the 238 00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:23.000 smartest thing to do is all right, there's Dave Roberts down the dugout brought 239 00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:27.200 to you by Service Titan talking about Yoshinobu Yambu Moto going on the IEL getting 240 00:16:27.240 --> 00:16:33.120 further test done today on the tightness in his tricep and Michael Grove some soreness 241 00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:36.080 in his lat They're going to shut him down, put him on the fifteen 242 00:16:36.159 --> 00:16:40.279 day IL, hopefully just a short stant give him a breather, because they 243 00:16:40.320 --> 00:16:42.639 have used him a lot coming out of the bullpen so far. In twenty 244 00:16:42.679 --> 00:16:45.279 twenty four. Brought to you by Service Titan, Dave Roberts a titan in 245 00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:48.919 his own right, and he's got a plan before his team hits the field. 246 00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:52.039 You need one for your growing contracting business too. Let Service Tit help 247 00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.080 you implement it. Learn more at Service Titan dot Com. Well, we 248 00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:59.720 continue here on Dodgers on Deck. We will check in with the David bassays 249 00:17:00.159 --> 00:17:03.079 jump the first pitch on this Father's Day Dodgers and Royals. I'm Tim Kates's 250 00:17:03.079 --> 00:17:15.799 Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network. This is Marongo Casino, Dodgers on Deach on 251 00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:21.440 your home for the Blue All Season Law. It's a Dodgers and Royals on 252 00:17:21.519 --> 00:17:23.960 this Father's Day. Tyler Glass now Brady Singer. The pitching matchup in this 253 00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:27.519 series finale, final game of this homestand first pitch coming up at one ten. 254 00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:33.599 Joining Tim Kates on Dodgers on Deck, I accept everybody for who they 255 00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:38.720 are. This is Dodger insider David Bassi. All right, DV, Happy 256 00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:42.720 Father's Day to you. I don't know what your level is of concern is, 257 00:17:42.759 --> 00:17:48.160 but I'll be honest with I'm a little worried about Yoshiyamamoto in this elbow 258 00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:51.160 issue. I am too, But you know what makes me feel a lot 259 00:17:51.240 --> 00:17:56.200 better and at ease is when former Dodger GM neck Coletti shows up at Dodgers 260 00:17:56.279 --> 00:18:00.440 Stadium. We're very, very colorful Father's Day polo. That makes me feel 261 00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:04.079 a lot better. Great to see Ned Colletti back at Dodger Stadium. He 262 00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:10.599 knows all about injuries and knows how to divulte certain information and keep some other 263 00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:15.079 information closer to the vest. Even if he has three buttons down, he 264 00:18:15.200 --> 00:18:18.160 used to keep it somewhere in that shirt. And I feel like as far 265 00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:22.759 as the Dodgers go, they might be holding some information back as far as 266 00:18:22.759 --> 00:18:30.119 the details about Yamamoto's injury moving before on the IL stuff, Dave, here, 267 00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:33.200 we got Michael Grove going on the injured list, but Joe Kelly gets 268 00:18:33.240 --> 00:18:37.079 extended to the sixty day IL. Does this mean a delay in his return? 269 00:18:37.279 --> 00:18:41.960 How's this factor in his timetable now? Yeah? So I know you 270 00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:45.680 might think that sixty days from now is when Joe Kelly may be eligible. 271 00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:48.640 That's not the way it works. It goes all the way back to the 272 00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:55.200 first day that he was even placed on the fifteen day IL, which was 273 00:18:55.319 --> 00:18:59.680 May sixth. So Joe Kelly, who told me the other day he is 274 00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:03.759 feeling like he's getting closer to returning, that has not changed. Joe Kelly 275 00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:10.599 can return to the Dodgers roster as soon as July sixth, So that's only 276 00:19:10.640 --> 00:19:14.559 a couple of weeks away, and the Dodger bullpen has been outstanding, but 277 00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:19.759 getting Joe Kelly back is going to be a huge boost and that is not 278 00:19:19.839 --> 00:19:25.039 going to be delayed just because they moved him to the sixty day IL. 279 00:19:25.200 --> 00:19:30.400 The Dodgers are maneuvering their forty man roster because they need two fresh arms and 280 00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:33.880 they had to add one of those to the forty man roster. So the 281 00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:37.039 way they made room for that was by placing Joe Kelly on the sixty day 282 00:19:37.079 --> 00:19:41.400 IL. But he can still return in a couple of weeks. David is 283 00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:44.519 driven by the Ford F series of America's best selling truck for forty seven years 284 00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:48.039 in counting. Ford gives you freedom of choice, gas, hybrid, electric, 285 00:19:48.200 --> 00:19:52.200 head to your Southern California Ford dealers and find yours Ford F Series built 286 00:19:52.559 --> 00:19:56.920 tough Max Munsey David. How much does this Dodgers team miss him right now? 287 00:19:57.200 --> 00:20:03.400 I believe tremendously. I feel like Dodger fans didn't appreciate Max Munsey and 288 00:20:03.480 --> 00:20:08.680 his value to this lineup until he's not in it anymore. And I think 289 00:20:08.720 --> 00:20:14.759 we understand now that it's not just nine individuals when you make a starting lineup 290 00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:19.480 out Max Munsey served a very valuable purpose other than hitting thirty home runs and 291 00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:22.960 driving in one hundred runs. We all know that, But the part that 292 00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:27.680 we don't appreciate is the fact that you have two guys in Otani and Freeman 293 00:20:27.880 --> 00:20:34.039 that swing first pitch and really don't work the count. And sometimes Mookie Betts 294 00:20:34.079 --> 00:20:38.039 does that as well. So you need a guy like Max Munsey in the 295 00:20:38.039 --> 00:20:42.119 middle of the order to see six seven pitches, that's how many he was 296 00:20:42.240 --> 00:20:47.200 averaging, and even if he strikes out, he's still making the pitcher work, 297 00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:52.359 especially since now it feels like that burdon has fell on Will Smith, 298 00:20:52.559 --> 00:20:56.880 and that's not always what Will Smith wants to do. Sometimes Will Smith wants 299 00:20:56.920 --> 00:21:00.960 to swing at the first pitch. And then you got Taoscar Hernandez, who, 300 00:21:00.200 --> 00:21:04.359 as Vin Scully used to say, you don't swing off the island or 301 00:21:04.440 --> 00:21:07.880 you don't walk off the island, and he's a free swinger as well. 302 00:21:07.960 --> 00:21:14.519 So that's the value of Max Muncy that I'm not sure many appreciated until now 303 00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:18.319 since he's not in it. David, real quick, you're talking to Bobby 304 00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:21.920 Miller a lot since he's been on the injured list, not worried about the 305 00:21:21.920 --> 00:21:23.720 outcome of his last start, but how important is it to get him back? 306 00:21:23.759 --> 00:21:26.880 Now with this news of Yamamoto going on the injured list, they're gonna 307 00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:30.640 eat a fresh arm. And it kind of feels like right place, right 308 00:21:30.680 --> 00:21:33.079 time. Bobby Miller coming back, no doubt. And we were getting calls 309 00:21:33.119 --> 00:21:37.000 about who's the odd man out when there's a six man rotation, we're going 310 00:21:37.039 --> 00:21:41.519 to have too many starters. Well, the Dodgers never felt that way. 311 00:21:41.559 --> 00:21:45.880 They were always cautiously optimistic. They may have that issue, but as you 312 00:21:45.960 --> 00:21:49.599 can see, tim a lot can change within two weeks, and all of 313 00:21:49.599 --> 00:21:53.759 a sudden, now there is no odd man out. Yamamoto's on the il 314 00:21:53.799 --> 00:21:59.440 and Bobby Miller will start Wednesday at Coors Field, and he's very anxious to 315 00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:03.160 do so, even at a hitter friendly ballpark like that. David Gray stuff, 316 00:22:03.200 --> 00:22:04.920 WI check back you with you in just a little bit. Coming up 317 00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:08.680 here on Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, we'll hear from Dodger third base Coachadino 318 00:22:08.799 --> 00:22:14.039 Ebel will dive deeper to this pitching matchup.

The blue wristbands, the blue stickers. Pcf dot org 351 00:25:00.279 --> 00:25:03.160 is where you can donate, get information on the home run challenge. I 352 00:25:03.240 --> 00:25:07.079 saw the Yankees are doing a great job. The Yankees have done a great 353 00:25:07.160 --> 00:25:12.079 job. It's based on home runs that you know, and Baltimore has the 354 00:25:12.119 --> 00:25:18.039 most Yankee second, but the Dodgers are in the top five. It would 355 00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:21.200 be nice to see a few home runs from the Dodgers today. We were 356 00:25:21.319 --> 00:25:26.160 rooting yesterday. It was an important day. But we have people that are 357 00:25:26.200 --> 00:25:30.680 giving us ten thousand a home run in Dodgers Stadium today. Oh, that's 358 00:25:30.680 --> 00:25:34.039 the wonderful. Maybe Otani can come through for you. Well, we're willing 359 00:25:34.039 --> 00:25:41.440 to have anyone rnandz Otani all Dodger home runs start. And today I just 360 00:25:41.680 --> 00:25:48.319 visited with two families who both lost their father to frostate cancer. Both cases 361 00:25:48.400 --> 00:25:57.519 grandfathers and today the best news is there's thirty three point five million Americans. 362 00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:03.599 They're going to be joining Father's Day with their families that had prostate cancer. 363 00:26:03.839 --> 00:26:07.440 And you're a big reason why there's so much awareness amongst baseball fans in this 364 00:26:07.559 --> 00:26:14.519 country. What inspired you to be the spokesman because there's a lot of guys 365 00:26:14.519 --> 00:26:17.960 that can go through it, but really don't go out and try to bring 366 00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:22.039 awareness. Well, it was amazing thirty years ago you had a simple blood 367 00:26:22.079 --> 00:26:27.599 test, like checking your cholesterol. It was an early warning system on a 368 00:26:27.680 --> 00:26:33.880 deadly disease, allow you to catch it early. But men were not getting 369 00:26:33.000 --> 00:26:38.279 tested. Women get tested, men don't. So we decided let's come out 370 00:26:38.279 --> 00:26:45.920 to ball games and remind you to keep dad in the game by reminding him 371 00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:48.680 to check that simple blood test. I think it only costs ten dollars. 372 00:26:49.359 --> 00:26:55.480 Yeah, that's special. PCF dot org is where you can get the literature 373 00:26:55.599 --> 00:26:59.880 and more importantly, awareness and donations for the Home Run Challenge. So this 374 00:27:00.319 --> 00:27:04.759 is the last day. This is day twenty six. I was in nine 375 00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:10.319 cities in the last five days, so we've had a few doubleheaders under our 376 00:27:10.319 --> 00:27:17.119 belt. But today my own grandchildren now joining me here my family and luckily 377 00:27:17.160 --> 00:27:22.880 I lobby Major League Baseball every year to try to have the Dodgers home on 378 00:27:23.119 --> 00:27:26.759 Fathers.

It's a beautiful Father's day 404 00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:19.160 at Dodgers Stadium, and we're with a champion of a father and the best 405 00:29:19.200 --> 00:29:22.920 third base coach in all of Major League Baseball, the one and only Dino 406 00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:26.319 Ebel. Happy Father's Day, Dino, Thank you Dave, and Happy father 407 00:29:26.440 --> 00:29:30.480 Days to you and all our great fans out there today that's gonna watch or 408 00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:34.720 listen to Dodger Baseball. I always say that you used to be Deno Ebel, 409 00:29:34.839 --> 00:29:37.880 one of the best third base coaches in the Big leagues, but now 410 00:29:37.920 --> 00:29:42.559 you're known as Brady and Trey's father. How does that feel? It's actually 411 00:29:42.599 --> 00:29:45.400 pretty good. The pressure is off of me, so it's good. I 412 00:29:45.400 --> 00:29:48.519 mean, the boys are you know, they're good and they're starting their summer 413 00:29:48.559 --> 00:29:52.240 baseball. But yeah, thank you for that, and I will just continue 414 00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:56.599 to move forward. And this is not a father pressuring his kids to follow 415 00:29:56.599 --> 00:30:02.319 in his footsteps. This is them wanting to to pursue this dream. Absolutely 416 00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:04.359 from day one. I just brought him to the park and never pushed baseball 417 00:30:04.400 --> 00:30:07.160 on him. And you know, we've talked about in the past about all 418 00:30:07.160 --> 00:30:11.400 the travel ball and the Little League and all that stuff that the kids go 419 00:30:11.519 --> 00:30:15.400 through. But I was the dad that just sat back and they truly love 420 00:30:15.440 --> 00:30:18.160 the game. They want to be here with me. Now that you know 421 00:30:18.200 --> 00:30:21.680 they're going into their senior and junior year seats, you know, junior seasons. 422 00:30:21.720 --> 00:30:25.599 But yeah, they they they love the game and their dream is to 423 00:30:25.640 --> 00:30:29.799 be here one day and then they're they're watching our guys perform every day. 424 00:30:29.839 --> 00:30:32.279 So it's good for me to bring him to the park. I know, 425 00:30:32.359 --> 00:30:36.400 Brady's older than Trey, and obviously he's getting a lot of attention. Is 426 00:30:36.400 --> 00:30:40.920 it awkward at times when you know there's a lot of people around here that 427 00:30:41.480 --> 00:30:45.519 have their eyes on your oldest son. Not really. I think Tray's handled 428 00:30:45.519 --> 00:30:48.480 it well. I think his his time is coming now that he's going to 429 00:30:48.519 --> 00:30:51.359 his junior season. And you know, he was out here the other day 430 00:30:51.400 --> 00:30:53.240 taking ground balls and a few few of the scouts that were here, so 431 00:30:53.319 --> 00:30:56.400 they couldn't believe his arm strength and the way, you know, he fills 432 00:30:56.400 --> 00:31:00.920 the ball. So it's just it's just a process. He sees his brother 433 00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:03.759 in front of him, and what I like about it is they compete, 434 00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:06.559 so Trey watches him. He wants to be better and his bigger brother, 435 00:31:06.920 --> 00:31:08.640 and then they come out here and you know, you have to perform in 436 00:31:08.640 --> 00:31:12.480 front of Mookie and Rojas and Kike and Big O and you know, Lux 437 00:31:12.519 --> 00:31:18.000 and Freddie Freeman. So It's constantly a competition for both the Evil brothers, 438 00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:22.680 and I enjoy watching it. Rodger's third base coach. Do you know Ebel 439 00:31:22.880 --> 00:31:26.200 is our guest. Do you know when you look at the team, basically 440 00:31:26.240 --> 00:31:29.680 the last twenty games you've been treading water but still have a big lead in 441 00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:33.880 the division. How much more is there in this team? Oh, there's 442 00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:36.240 a lot, David, you know, his team's you know, we've done 443 00:31:36.240 --> 00:31:38.640 this before, up and ups and downs throughout the game, but draw it 444 00:31:38.640 --> 00:31:42.480 a long season, but you know we always come out here. The process 445 00:31:42.599 --> 00:31:47.039 is really good. The clubhouse is great. Dave does a great job of 446 00:31:47.160 --> 00:31:51.559 keeping everybody in form, communicating, which he's he's outstanding in that. And 447 00:31:51.880 --> 00:31:53.000 the guys come out and they do their work. Now, if there was 448 00:31:53.039 --> 00:31:56.920 a left or right where now they're not coming out and they're in a film 449 00:31:57.000 --> 00:32:00.079 sorry for themselves, I'll use that word, but you know they're not coming 450 00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:02.799 out working. And now you know what, now as coaches, we got 451 00:32:02.839 --> 00:32:06.720 to you know, go to them and say, listen, let's keep the 452 00:32:06.759 --> 00:32:09.119 process going, which has been great since spring training. You know you're not 453 00:32:09.160 --> 00:32:12.599 going to get four hits a game. You're not. You might make an 454 00:32:12.720 --> 00:32:15.119 error you might throw a ball over the plate and the guy hits a home 455 00:32:15.200 --> 00:32:17.359 run. So it's part of it. You learn from it, you turn 456 00:32:17.400 --> 00:32:21.079 the page, you come back out today and you win today's ball game. 457 00:32:21.279 --> 00:32:24.240 Do you know you're right in the trenches with Mookie Bets on a daily basis, 458 00:32:24.279 --> 00:32:29.200 three four hours before every game. Where is he as far as the 459 00:32:29.279 --> 00:32:31.880 improvement? You know, he's getting better. I know he's so, you 460 00:32:31.880 --> 00:32:36.319 know, like thinks he can be better than what he is, but he'd 461 00:32:36.880 --> 00:32:39.039 you know, I'm speaking from me. You know I tell this to Mookie 462 00:32:39.079 --> 00:32:44.279 all the time. Is you know you nobody is doing what you're doing. 463 00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:46.680 Nobody has ever gone from a go glove right fielder to second base, to 464 00:32:47.039 --> 00:32:51.640 right field, to shortstop to second to right and now you're an everyday shortstop. 465 00:32:51.720 --> 00:32:54.079 So it's a process. And I saw the other day when he said 466 00:32:54.079 --> 00:32:57.839 this is hard. It's hard, and we've told him that. But he's 467 00:32:57.880 --> 00:33:00.480 such a good competitor athlete. He wants to be elite. He wants to 468 00:33:00.519 --> 00:33:04.880 help his team win a championship. But again, you see it every day, 469 00:33:04.960 --> 00:33:06.960 day in and day out. This guy doesn't miss a beat. He 470 00:33:07.000 --> 00:33:10.160 wants to learn and he's pushing forward, So we just got to play day 471 00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:13.880 by day, keep him healthy, which he is. His arm strength is 472 00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:16.559 great, and get him going in the batter's box and he'll be the mookie 473 00:33:16.559 --> 00:33:21.119 that everybody knows. And your positioning seems to help him out a lot. 474 00:33:21.160 --> 00:33:24.440 The Dodgers are at the top of baseball with where you position guys for certain 475 00:33:24.519 --> 00:33:29.079 hitters. Absolutely, our front office and our guys upstairs, you know, 476 00:33:29.119 --> 00:33:31.480 they send down great information. We cross check it, you know, I 477 00:33:31.519 --> 00:33:36.200 go over videos with certain pitchers, right he lefties, and then how many 478 00:33:36.240 --> 00:33:38.160 at bats they got off of our own pictures. But yeah, we try 479 00:33:38.200 --> 00:33:40.920 to put him in the best spot, which we do a good job doing 480 00:33:40.920 --> 00:33:45.519 that, and then let the athleticism take over of our infielders and then if 481 00:33:45.519 --> 00:33:47.400 they make a diving play, that's on them and that's why they're in the 482 00:33:47.400 --> 00:33:52.200 big leagues. Deno Ebols known as obviously the best third base coach in baseball, 483 00:33:52.240 --> 00:33:57.400 but also when people describe you, they describe you as an aggressive third 484 00:33:57.440 --> 00:34:00.599 base coach. Do you feel like this Dodger team has matched your identity? 485 00:34:01.240 --> 00:34:04.480 Well, yeah, yeah, you know there's times where you have to play 486 00:34:04.519 --> 00:34:07.079 the scoreboard. We got such a good offense and you know, as a 487 00:34:07.119 --> 00:34:10.400 third base coach here, you know I'm never gonna be perfect. I understand 488 00:34:10.440 --> 00:34:15.000 that. But sometimes with one out and two outs and you look on deck 489 00:34:15.079 --> 00:34:16.639 or who's in the hole, which I do all the time, you want 490 00:34:16.719 --> 00:34:20.719 some of your big hitters to get that at bat and trying to you know, 491 00:34:21.360 --> 00:34:22.960 force the issue, and maybe he gets thrown out at the play. 492 00:34:23.440 --> 00:34:28.159 So there's gonna be times when I read the scoreboard, especially with no outs, 493 00:34:28.159 --> 00:34:30.480 I just you know, I want to people to understand. With no 494 00:34:30.559 --> 00:34:32.519 outs, if I can't get the guy home by standing, then it's not 495 00:34:32.559 --> 00:34:36.480 a real good play on my part. I can't make it a close play. 496 00:34:36.480 --> 00:34:38.559 And he's saved when you got you know, no outs and you got 497 00:34:38.559 --> 00:34:42.960 three guys coming up to drive a run in. So one out I can 498 00:34:43.000 --> 00:34:45.519 be a little bit more aggressive. Two outs, I'm more aggressive, but 499 00:34:45.599 --> 00:34:47.599 depending on who's on deck in situation in the game, I'll let the big 500 00:34:47.639 --> 00:34:51.519 boys swing the bat behind him. Hey, that's why he's the best. 501 00:34:51.960 --> 00:34:55.199 Hijack Dino's cell phone to do this interview on Father's Day.

Thanks again, we counted out of the first pitch here 549 00:38:21.719 --> 00:38:27.559 this afternoon on this Father's Day Sunday afternoon at Dodgers Stadium, Dodgers wrapping up 550 00:38:27.599 --> 00:38:30.000 this home stand. They'll fly to Denver run after the game, begin a 551 00:38:30.000 --> 00:38:34.559 four game series with the Rockies starting tomorrow. But lots to do here today 552 00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:38.719 as Tyler Glasnow will take on Brady's singer for Glass Noow Six and five. 553 00:38:38.960 --> 00:38:43.360 But he has been zero to four over his last six starts, not all 554 00:38:43.400 --> 00:38:46.800 his fault. The run support average has not been there. Through the fourth 555 00:38:46.840 --> 00:38:51.360 of May, he was getting seven and three quarters runs per game that was 556 00:38:51.440 --> 00:38:54.719 fourth best in Major League Baseball at the time. Since May tenth, he's 557 00:38:54.719 --> 00:38:59.239 only getting a run and a quarter run support, which is now the fourth 558 00:38:59.280 --> 00:39:01.559 worst in the league baseb. Yeah, and his ZRA has gone up also 559 00:39:01.599 --> 00:39:05.480 because of that period of time since the tenth of Mayors. Era is right 560 00:39:05.519 --> 00:39:08.880 at four interesting things about Glass now. First of all, when he gets 561 00:39:09.119 --> 00:39:13.639 out on that mound, you look at the last three years, Tyler glassnow 562 00:39:13.639 --> 00:39:17.239 has allowed just a one ninety eight batting average against him. What he's done 563 00:39:17.320 --> 00:39:21.880 so well this year, He's handled the big bats in the lineup, number 564 00:39:21.920 --> 00:39:25.599 three, four, and five, all hitting below one fifty against the big 565 00:39:25.679 --> 00:39:30.280 right hander, and he absolutely he's not a day at the beach if you're 566 00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:32.880 a hitter when he come to home plate. Brady Singer going for Kansas City, 567 00:39:32.880 --> 00:39:37.920 He's two to zero against the Dodgers with an sixty nine earn run average. 568 00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:40.159 He's allowed one ear and run over thirteen innings pitched in two career starts, 569 00:39:40.440 --> 00:39:44.079 and he's been tough against the boys in Blue. He's been tough. 570 00:39:44.079 --> 00:39:46.840 But if you look at June two starts so far this month, his record 571 00:39:46.920 --> 00:39:52.000 is zero to one, but the ERA is seven point seven to one, 572 00:39:52.199 --> 00:39:55.239 and in each of the last two starts, batting average against over three sixty 573 00:39:55.519 --> 00:40:00.320 Dodgers forty three and twenty nine. Seven games up on the pod is to 574 00:40:00.320 --> 00:40:04.400 start action today and for the Royals, they're forty one and thirty one, 575 00:40:04.400 --> 00:40:07.159 to five games back of the Guardians in second place in the American League Central 576 00:40:07.159 --> 00:40:12.679 Division. Father's Day Baseball. Coming up from Dodgers Stadium. Tim all Right, 577 00:40:12.760 --> 00:40:15.840 first pitch when we come back. Dodgers forty three and twenty nine. 578 00:40:15.880 --> 00:40:20.719 They start the day with a seven game lead in the division. Dodgers looking 579 00:40:20.719 --> 00:40:23.719 to keep pace with a win today, win this series against Kansas City, 580 00:40:23.719 --> 00:40:29.360 and then it's off to Colorado for a four game set in which Bobby Miller 581 00:40:29.400 --> 00:40:32.079 is expected to come off the injury list and get the start on Wednesday in 582 00:40:32.079 --> 00:40:36.440 the third of the four games against the Rockies. But first things first, 583 00:40:36.480 --> 00:40:39.800 Dodgers need to take care of business in this homestand on a winning note, 584 00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:44.280 get back on track, maintain that lead of the division, and then a 585 00:40:44.320 --> 00:40:47.079 head off for a divisional series against Colorado. First pitch when we come back 586 00:40:47.239 --> 00:40:51.599 after the game, I'll be back with all the postgame festivities, including Dodger 587 00:40:51.679 --> 00:40:54.960 Talk as well.
