00:00:14.599 --> 00:00:20.879
hot Sunday afternoon here in southern California. You're Los Angeles Dodgers fifty five and

4
00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:24.359
thirty five on this season, first
place to top the NL West. They

5
00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:27.719
pick up a game on the padres
now as seven and a half game lead

6
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:31.280
in the division. After taking the
first two games of this series with the

7
00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:35.759
Brewers, the Dodgers go for the
sweep of Milwaukee this afternoon with a young

8
00:00:35.799 --> 00:00:41.439
man making his major league debut for
the Dodgers, left hander Justin Robleski on

9
00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:45.479
the mound, called up from Triple
A Oklahoma City. First pitch from Dodgers

10
00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:48.880
Stadium is coming up at one ten, coming up over here the next hour

11
00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:53.000
here on Morogo Casino Dodgers on Deck, you'll hear from the manager, Dave

12
00:00:53.079 --> 00:00:57.479
Roberts. Will dive deeper into this
pitching matchup David Vsego's one on one with

13
00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:00.640
Bobby Miller. We'll check in with
DV. Of course out the show.

14
00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:03.759
We got your magical moment. We'll
hear from Miguel Vargas, who had a

15
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:06.760
big home run yesterday, And in
just a few minutes, we'll check out

16
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:10.599
Rick Monday and Tim Neverritt out at
the Gallpin Motors Broadcast booth. Well,

17
00:01:10.840 --> 00:01:15.239
yesterday at the stadium, the Dodgers
used the long ball more to beat the

18
00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:19.000
Brewers. James Paxston got the start
the Big Maple, ended up going five

19
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:23.359
innings, gave up two runs on
four hits while striking out three. He

20
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:26.480
gave up an RBI single to William
Domins in the top of the first as

21
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:30.319
Milwaukee jumped out to the early one
nothing lead. The Dodgers offense, though,

22
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:34.359
answer right back Will Smith a three
home run night the night before,

23
00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:38.079
and he picked up right where he
left off. Two ball, one strike

24
00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:42.920
pitch to Will swung well the right
field. That's gonna take Freelick back to

25
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:46.560
the track, to the wall.
It is done. A home run into

26
00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:53.840
the home run seats with Will Smith, a two run homer he Will Smith.

27
00:01:53.879 --> 00:02:00.120
This hit is fourth home run this
series, an opposite field shot that

28
00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:05.840
just carried out. Will Smith does
it again, fifteen home run of this

29
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:09.240
season, his fourth in two games
after hitting three on Friday night, that

30
00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:13.080
tied the game at one. Later, the Indian Andy pot has and field

31
00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:15.439
his choice that scored Freddie Freeman Dodgers
with two runs at the bottom of the

32
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:19.960
first. Not only answered back would
take the lead. James Paxson would pitch

33
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:23.479
well in the fourth, though he
gave up a solo home run to Reese

34
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:25.759
Hoskins, a mistake he wants back, no doubt about that, that tied

35
00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:30.960
the game at two. The Dodgers
zoe coming back or up three to two

36
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:36.680
in the eighth inning when Christian Yelich
hit a home run off of Evan Phillips

37
00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:39.560
that tied the game at three.
The Dodgers now going to the bottom of

38
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:44.680
the eighth inning, Gavin Lux gets
pitch hit four by Miguel Vargas, who

39
00:02:44.759 --> 00:02:47.560
untied the game, and his next
pitch is swung on and hit high in

40
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:51.879
the air to left field. It's
drifting, Yellin's going back. He's at

41
00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:53.879
the track and he's at the wall. He leaps in at his bar.

42
00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:59.719
It's gone. It's over his head
for a home run, a pinch hit

43
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:05.159
home for Miguel Vargas and the Dodgers
leading in the eighth four to three.

44
00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:12.840
Oh Miguel Vargas for the second home
run in as many games, third of

45
00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:15.800
this season. That's the top Tier
play of the game sponsored by Roco Quality

46
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:20.919
Top Tier Gas for Less. That
home run untied a three to three game.

47
00:03:20.919 --> 00:03:23.360
There in the bottom of the eighth
inning, Dodgers up four to three.

48
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:28.039
Two batters later, show Hey o'tani
with a solo home run to center

49
00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:31.280
four hundred and thirty feet that gave
the Dodgers a five to three lead.

50
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:37.400
The ninth inning would belong to Alex
Vesia and he came out pitched the ninth

51
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:40.479
inning for his fifth save of the
year. Dodgers get the win five to

52
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:45.840
three over the Brewers. Evan Phillips
gets the blown save and the win as

53
00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:47.960
the Dodgers get that two runs in
the bottom half of the eighth inning.

54
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:53.039
The Dodgers now go for the three
games sweep over the Milwaukee Brewers, and

55
00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:57.520
they send out a young man making
his major league debut, left tender Justin

56
00:03:57.719 --> 00:04:00.280
Robleski on the mound first pitching one
ten and with more than ten out to

57
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:03.879
the Galvin Motors broadcast booth. As
we say good afternoon, dure Rick Monday

58
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:09.240
and Tim Neffrit guys, Thank you
ten perfect Sunday afternoon for a ball game.

59
00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:13.879
As the Dodgers get set to take
on the Milwaukee Brewers in Game three

60
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:16.040
of this three game set a chance
to pull off a three game sweep.

61
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:20.519
They won the first two games and
last night another run in the eighth inning.

62
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:24.240
Both games. So far in the
series, the Dodgers have put the

63
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:29.040
go ahead run on board in the
eighth inning five to three the win as

64
00:04:29.160 --> 00:04:32.439
Miguel Vargas ends up with what would
be considered the game winning RBI. There's

65
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:35.480
a stat they don't really keep anymore, but if they did, Vargas would

66
00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:40.399
have had it. Last night.
Shohio Tani with an insurance home run also

67
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:43.399
in the eighth inning, and Will
Smith had a home run as well.

68
00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:46.120
So the Dodgers up two games to
none in this series, looking for the

69
00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:50.879
three game sweep, and they have
dominated this team here at Dodger Stadium.

70
00:04:50.920 --> 00:04:57.000
They've won thirteen of the last fourteen
games against Milwaukee, including the games involving

71
00:04:57.000 --> 00:05:00.439
in the twenty twenty playoffs, and
they've won seven in a row. Today,

72
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:04.120
Dallas Kiko, veteran left hander,
goals against a minor league call up

73
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:09.639
justin Robleski. He'll make his Dodger
debut here today and he's going to make

74
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:13.600
his major league debut. Quite a
story also developing now with Miguel Vargas,

75
00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:15.800
who came over with a pitch hit
home run in the eighth inn in last

76
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:18.560
night's ball game. The other part, too, is sho Hey O'tani,

77
00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:23.319
who was zero for eleven entering last
night's ballgame. He's on base all five

78
00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:25.800
times, two walks, he was
hit by a pitch, had a triple.

79
00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:30.600
He also had career home run number
one hundred and ninety nine. So,

80
00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:32.600
yeah, as you were saying yesterday, there's some pitcher going to get

81
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:36.040
their ticket punched. He's going to
break out of it. That's the story.

82
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:40.279
But it's going to be interesting to
see Miguel Vargas, who said I've

83
00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:44.319
been waiting patiently. Well, it's
paying off because he's starting in left field

84
00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:48.399
in today's ballgame. Vargas looking for
opportunities, and again he has said it,

85
00:05:48.839 --> 00:05:53.639
he has said it that he doesn't
care where he plays as long as

86
00:05:53.639 --> 00:05:57.199
he gets at bats. And will
the bats come in left field? Will

87
00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:59.879
they come at third base? He's
been taking ground balls at third resently.

88
00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:02.399
Yeah. Well, he was missed
out on the second base opportunity. Gavin

89
00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:05.720
Lux took that over and then you
look at well he tried to make the

90
00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:09.720
transition to left field. That was
the work in progress. Then we've seen

91
00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:13.480
him take ground balls recently at third
base. If you can hit, they're

92
00:06:13.519 --> 00:06:16.560
going to find a position for you. So he will back in the sixth

93
00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:19.759
spot today and play in left field. Here's the other thing about Vargas too.

94
00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:23.680
You look at what he's done.
He's fifteen for forty three. That's

95
00:06:23.720 --> 00:06:28.360
with three home runs and four doubles. So he is I think also the

96
00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:31.959
knowledge he handles the ball from what
we've seen so far inside very very well.

97
00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:36.759
The question has been that pitches away
from him and really being able to

98
00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:42.079
discern is it a ball or is
a strike? K Herdandez gets a start

99
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:45.519
today at third base, and Chris
Taylor moves over to second, getting a

100
00:06:45.600 --> 00:06:48.519
right headed bat in there against Dallas
Kaykl the lefter. It's kind of funny

101
00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:50.879
too, Tim. You look at
this Dodgra ball club. They start with

102
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:55.040
a seven and a half game lead
over the San Diego Padres in the Western

103
00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:57.600
Division. Okay, things are coming
up, Rosie on that end, of

104
00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:00.759
it. And yet you look at
the last six games. They won four

105
00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:03.720
of the six, but they have
been out hit sixty three to fifty one.

106
00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:09.560
They've also been outscored in those six
games forty four runs to thirty.

107
00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:12.199
Well, they need to tighten the
belts a little bit on that end of

108
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:15.040
it, and we'll see what the
rookie does in making his major league debut

109
00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:19.720
on the mound here this afternoon,
Dodgers and Brewers. Dodgers going for a

110
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:24.839
three game sweep, Dodgers seven and
a half up in the West and the

111
00:07:24.879 --> 00:07:28.639
Brewers five up in the Central Division. Tim all right, as we cut

112

Coming up here on Dodgers on Deck,

115
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:42.879
you'll hear from the manager, Dave
Roberts. We'll check it with Davidves.

116
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:46.160
Of course, throughout the hour,
we'll dive deeper to this pitching matchup.

117
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.839
We'll hear from Bobby Miller, who's
going to get to start on Tuesday in

118
00:07:48.920 --> 00:07:54.040
Philadelphia. Up next though, you're
Otani. Rewind and we'll hear from Miguel

119
00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:57.959

as the Dodgers hit two home runs of

120
00:07:58.000 --> 00:08:01.160
the eighth and they beat the Brewers
five coming up, leading you to Dodgers

121

00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:37.320
ready for that? At bad you
know, help me? You know,

152
00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:39.919
Uh, during the game, I
was I was watching you know, the

153
00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:45.360
via ware, you know, the
whoopings they have. So once I see

154
00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:46.840
a letter, you know, trying
to be ready for you know, NYC

155
00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:50.000
question on the game, and you
know, I think again, we take

156
00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:54.960
it up everything else. Yeah,
no doubt. But that wasn't just another

157
00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:58.200
lefty. That was Brian Hudson,
your former teammate. Were you more familiar

158
00:10:58.279 --> 00:11:01.440
with him, Yeah, yeah,
I ain't know, Hoody, It'll be

159
00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:05.480
from a couple of years ago.
I have great rotter team with him,

160
00:11:05.519 --> 00:11:09.360
you know. But you know,
these day games, so I mean,

161
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:11.240
you're good if you're you know,
trying to help my team. And we

162
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:16.240
got the w today, so it's
great. You're finally getting the opportunity.

163
00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:20.919
Last night, the start to run
home run. Today, the Brewers come

164
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:24.159
back to tie it up, but
Miguel Vargas, a big weapon off the

165
00:11:24.200 --> 00:11:26.519
bench, comes up to win the
game. How good does it feel to

166
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:31.240
get the opportunity and season? Oh, Biz, Gray, Bill Gray,

167
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:35.240
You know, I mean, I'm
always getting ready to prepare myself though for

168
00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:37.600
you know, opportunities like this.
You know, I'm trying to help my

169
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:41.440
team in anyway, So that's all
I tried to do. Hey, keep

170
00:11:41.519 --> 00:11:48.240

Yeah, yeah, signor s all right,

not good news. Clayton Kershaw throwing earlier

today. More on that with David

closer as well. All right, let's

Questions for Dave, Dave, can
you just describe Dave? Can you talk

198
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:56.440
about the pressure in the dugouts with
Dave Roberts another young pitcher making his major

199
00:13:56.519 --> 00:14:00.759
league Thank you today college. You
know got the list, Uh, not

200
00:14:00.799 --> 00:14:05.960
a whole lot. I think that
the comp I got was he's sort of

201
00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:11.320
Gavin Stone, but throws with his
left hand. Uh, there's a good

202
00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:18.399
competitor there, there's command, and
he moves the ball around. So uh,

203
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:22.000
you know, not scared. I
just talked to him a little bit

204
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:28.799
earlier. He's excited, got his
family and friends flying in from northern Atlanta,

205
00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:31.759
which is great, so he'll be
well represented, and uh, you

206
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:35.600
know, it's just another opportunity for
us to see a Dodger farm hand make

207
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:41.399
his debut. So this is a
good opportunity for Robos, especially the last

208
00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:46.480
couple of years with these young pitchers
coming up out of necessity. What do

209
00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:50.240
you look for out of these guys
in their major league debuts when you're judging

210
00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:56.679
evaluating them as the game goes on. I think I think early on you're

211
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:03.799
you're obviously appreciating the emotions. It's
been a quick assent for Robo and for

212
00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:09.039
any for certain young pitchers, and
just to try to make sure that their

213
00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:13.759
emotions are intact. And I think
a lot of times there's an armside miss

214
00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:18.399
they're overthrowing adrenaline, but to see
how quickly they can settle into the game

215
00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:24.639
and then make pitches, and so, you know, after the first couple

216
00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:26.600
of innings, there's a lot of
adrenaline that starts to wear off, and

217
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:31.720
then you start to see if they
can hold their stuff and see where the

218
00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:35.279
command and the stuff plays, and
then I'll kind of make a judgment call.

219
00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:37.240
You know, during that outing,
What did you think from what you

220
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:43.399
saw from Joe Kelly and Clayton earlier. I thought Clayton was good. It

221
00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:46.639
was good to see him throw two
innings. We accomplished what we wanted to

222
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:54.759
and Joe just wasn't sharp today,
and so you know, hopefully at least

223
00:15:54.840 --> 00:16:00.320
we got through it healthy and built
up his arm and pitches. But I

224
00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:04.240
don't think it was a great one
for Joe. All those little plans go

225
00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:07.960
for play to go through overs.
Yeah, yeah, if all goes well,

226
00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:12.519
Clayton will start a rehab and go
through innings. You have a Chris

227
00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:18.480
Taylor starting line up today against Dallas
Kichel. Do you believe the confidence of

228
00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:25.759
just past history between those two plays
into Taylor's confidence even in a season like

229
00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:30.840
this. I think it. Certainly
there's familiarity. Obviously that was a big

230
00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:37.120
hit. He has some success versus
Kykeel, but that's that's years ago.

231
00:16:37.679 --> 00:16:41.480
But I think that I don't think
both players, either player has forgotten it.

232
00:16:41.720 --> 00:16:45.320
But in the moment the ad bat, I don't think it really has

233
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:51.159
an impact. Obviously, like playing
time, decisions aren't made in a vacuum.

234
00:16:51.159 --> 00:16:53.159
But his vargas kind of shown you
the sort of stuff that the plate

235
00:16:53.240 --> 00:16:56.519
lately. That kind of pushes the
case for him to play a little more

236
00:16:56.519 --> 00:17:03.039
regularly. Yeah, it does,
it does. So you know, like

237
00:17:03.080 --> 00:17:07.000
I said yesterday, I like him
versus both. I think he hangs in

238
00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:11.680
there versus the right hander, and
he's taking really good bats versus left hander.

239
00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:15.039
I thought James took some good swings
yesterday, which was great to see.

240
00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:19.720
So now it's just trying to figure
out, you know, best matchups

241
00:17:19.720 --> 00:17:22.000
and if I want to give Andy
a day, I think I've got some

242
00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:25.599
options now, which is good.
All right, there's Dave Roberts out on

243
00:17:25.640 --> 00:17:27.839
the dugout talking about the injuries to
the team, with some updates on Clayton

244
00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:33.839
Kershaw, Joe Kelly, and certainly
Justin Robleski Robo making the major league debut

245
00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:37.160
today, the left hander for the
Dodgers. Brought to you by Service Titan.

246
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:40.640
Dave Roberts is a Titan in his
own right. He's got a plan

247
00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:44.079
before his team hits the field.
You need one for your growing contracting business

248

Dodgers on Deck. Well check in with

250
00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:52.359
David Vessa. You just heard him
talking to Dave Roberts. Yeah, we're

251
00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:56.599
leading. That's the first pitch on
this Sunday Dodgers and Brewers. I'm Tim

252
00:17:56.640 --> 00:18:07.119
Kateson's Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
This is Marongo Casino, Dodgers on Deck

253
00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:12.519
on your home for the Blue All
Season Law Law. It's the Dodgers and

254
00:18:12.559 --> 00:18:18.799
Brewers on this Sunday afternoon. Justin
Robleski makes his major league debut, first

255
00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:25.079
pitch in this series finale coming up
at one ten, joining Tim kats on

256
00:18:25.279 --> 00:18:29.480
Dodgers on Deck. I accept everybody
for who they are. This is Dodger

257
00:18:29.559 --> 00:18:34.480
insider David Basse. All right,
DV. Last year we saw the immersions

258
00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:38.559
of guys like Imma Shean and Bobby
Miller and Gavin Stone. They have certainly

259
00:18:38.599 --> 00:18:45.160
put their imprint on this Dodger pitching
staff. And now another young left handed

260
00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:48.640
arm, Justin Robleski, makes his
major league debut today. Yeah, Justin

261
00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:52.279
Robleski will be on the mound for
the Dodgers. The way it's been compared

262
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:57.759
to is Immit Shean bursting on the
scene last year straight from double A barely

263
00:18:57.799 --> 00:19:03.400
anytime at Oklahoma City, and Robleski
made thirteen starts at Double A Tulsa this

264
00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:08.200
year before earning a promotion to Oklahoma
City, where he's made two starts.

265
00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:11.839
And Tim, I've heard about Roblesky
going back about a month. That's where

266
00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:18.039
he really started to get on my
radar, where scouts from other teams started

267
00:19:18.039 --> 00:19:22.200
to tell me that he's got a
ninety seven fastball, he's got a slider,

268
00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:26.559
he's got a curveball, so he's
not just a thrower. He's got

269
00:19:26.599 --> 00:19:32.599
the full arsenal in his toolbox,
ninety seven miles an hour to top it

270
00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:34.759
off, and he has you know, late life on his fastball, so

271
00:19:34.839 --> 00:19:38.720
it will be exciting to lay eyes
on him, and you know, this

272
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:42.720
is the next wave. I was
talking to landon Knack about it. Tim.

273
00:19:42.799 --> 00:19:45.799
It's weird asking landon Knack this,
but I said, who's the next

274
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:49.480
wave? He said, yeah,
Robleski is part of that next wave.

275
00:19:49.559 --> 00:19:52.279
So we'll get a look at him
today. Yeah. His favorite player growing

276
00:19:52.359 --> 00:19:56.839
up, by the way, Clayton
Kershaw. So maybe don't tell Clayton that

277
00:19:56.960 --> 00:20:00.319
here. There's a few of those
guys around now, David, about your

278
00:20:00.319 --> 00:20:03.119
Southern California four dealers for great offers
on a Ford Broncos Sport or any other

279
00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:07.680
Ford model during fourth of July,
selithon all right, he tim, before

280
00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:11.799
you ask me another question. Speaking
of Kershaw, I just wanted to let

281
00:20:11.839 --> 00:20:17.400
you know he threw a simulated game
today and from here he will go out

282
00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:19.400
on a rehab start, and he
has it all mapped out. He was

283
00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:23.279
explaining it to me yesterday and today
when I saw him, he asked me

284
00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:26.119
whether or not I wanted to step
in if I was going to face him.

285
00:20:26.359 --> 00:20:29.880
He said, I can't joke around. I gotta get through this,

286
00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:33.160
but after that we could have some
fun. So Kershaw threw it today and

287
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:38.119
he's hopefully feeling good, hopefully progressing
in the right direction. Today the All

288
00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:42.880
Star Reserves, the team gets announced
DV. The Dodgers should have a couple

289
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:48.240
of guys making their way to Arlington. Yeah, I feel like Taoscar Hernandez

290
00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:51.279
will be there. Not sure if
you saw my tweet yesterday, Tim,

291
00:20:51.359 --> 00:20:56.200
but Taoscar Hernandez wanted me to put
it out there publicly that he does want

292
00:20:56.240 --> 00:21:00.720
to participate in this year's Home Run
Derby. He wants to be in it.

293
00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:04.759
He deserves to be an All Star
for the National League Freddie Freeman more

294
00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:08.400
than likely not only will be on
the team, but could be a starter

295
00:21:08.599 --> 00:21:14.279
because of the injury to Bryce Harper. So Freddie, Taoscar Hernandez, and

296
00:21:15.240 --> 00:21:18.920
I'm not sure about Tyler Glass now
after the last four or five starts,

297
00:21:18.960 --> 00:21:22.039
but Gavin Stone certainly has a case, as does Evan Phillips. And how

298
00:21:22.039 --> 00:21:26.839
about this, Tim. I don't
know if the players are going to vote

299
00:21:26.839 --> 00:21:30.680
this way, but there has been
some buzz about Alex Vesia. People have

300
00:21:30.759 --> 00:21:34.319
been asking Alex Vessio whether or not
he thinks he'll be an All Star.

301
00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:37.880
He told me to zip it up
and put it in my back pocket and

302
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:44.160
that you will do DV final thing. Mookie Betts, how's that hand progressing,

303
00:21:44.240 --> 00:21:48.559
David, Well, it feels like
it's going along better than it was.

304
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:52.319
Two days after he was hit on
the hand. He was out here

305
00:21:52.359 --> 00:21:57.559
again with Brandon McDaniel, the Dodgers
VP of Player Performance, taking ground balls

306
00:21:57.599 --> 00:22:04.000
and obviously noting it but simulated fielding
and throwing across the diamond. And he

307
00:22:04.119 --> 00:22:08.319
is going to be back in the
sports at LA Booth today with Joe Davis

308
00:22:08.359 --> 00:22:12.440
and Oral Herscheizers. So more Mookie
on the TV, I told him.

309
00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:15.319
Hey, you're trying to steal my
shine. Yeah. More, Mookie did

310
00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:18.359
a pretty good job. Thought he
was gonna stick around for a half in

311
00:22:18.359 --> 00:22:19.880
any the other night next you know, two, and he's later who's still

312
00:22:19.920 --> 00:22:22.839
in the booth. So I'm pretty
cool, all right, David, Well,

313
00:22:22.920 --> 00:22:25.000
check back you with you just a
little bit. Coming up here on

314
00:22:25.119 --> 00:22:27.640
Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, will
dive deeper into this pitching matchup. We'll

315
00:22:27.680 --> 00:22:32.720
go high and tight of next out. You're Dodgers Magical Moment on this Sunday

320
00:22:55.200 --> 00:22:59.119
this three game set. Justin Robleski, the twenty three year old left tender,

Dodgers. First pitch coming up at

323

Ditch Magical presented by Hawfy Hot Jobs. Nineteen seventy five All Star Game

324
00:23:19.039 --> 00:23:23.400
in Milwaukee was the celebration actually for
a Hank Aaron, who was playing in

325
00:23:23.400 --> 00:23:30.400
his final All Star Game, having
lost eleven of twelve All Star Games.

326
00:23:30.400 --> 00:23:33.480
The American League was hungry for a
win, but the National League had another

327
00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:37.720
thing coming. The Nation League,
led by Dodger manager Walter Alston. In

328
00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:41.759
the second inning, leading off for
the National League was Steve Garvey, followed

329
00:23:41.759 --> 00:23:48.680
by another Dodger, Jimmy Winn.
Consistency there's the best term to describe Garvey

330
00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:52.079
hitting three eighteen eleven homers, fifty
six runs. At it end, they're

331
00:23:52.119 --> 00:24:02.640
the long guy that it is going. It is gone. League of Cup

332
00:24:02.720 --> 00:24:07.319

is making a bid. Won the Most

333

kept Bailey. Back to back home run

336
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:29.799

Kirk County on the call. Steve Garvey

and Jimmy Winn back to back home
runs for the National League off Vita Blue

338

follow up with the single ride after that,

339
00:24:37.759 --> 00:24:41.799

Angeles Dodgers Audio Network is Laurento Casino,

346
00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:14.200
Dodgers on Dodgers on Deck. Y'all
on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball,

347
00:25:15.200 --> 00:25:19.160
Dodgers and Brewers. Justin Robleski,
twenty three year old left hander,

348
00:25:19.200 --> 00:25:22.880
when the Dodgers' top pitching prospects called
up, makes his major League debut this

349
00:25:22.920 --> 00:25:27.279
afternoon. First pitch coming up at

And now joined by David Bassey. Here's

354
00:25:44.559 --> 00:25:51.599
La Dodgers broadcaster and World Series champion
Dodger Rick Monday. Rick, a beautiful

355
00:25:51.640 --> 00:25:56.160
Sunday afternoon here at Dodgers Stadium.
And when I think Dallas Kicele and Chris

356
00:25:56.200 --> 00:26:00.359
Taylor facing off, which will happen
today, I think of Game one of

357
00:26:00.400 --> 00:26:04.680
the twenty seventeen World Series. First
pitch Taylor hit halfway up the leftfield pavilion.

358
00:26:04.720 --> 00:26:07.640
Yeah, and Kayko was a losing
pitcher on that date. He also

359
00:26:07.720 --> 00:26:12.680
pitched Game five of that World Series
against the Dodgers, had a no decision

360
00:26:12.799 --> 00:26:15.880
in that one. And that's the
last time that the Dodgers have seen Kayko.

361
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:18.880
So he might as well pick up
right where they're left off, right,

362
00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:22.839
no doubt about it. And Miguel
Vargas has picked up where he has

363
00:26:22.920 --> 00:26:26.519
left off whenever given the opportunity.
Isn't that a nice story that what we're

364
00:26:26.559 --> 00:26:30.400
seeing, at least on the front
end. Also, and by the way,

365
00:26:30.480 --> 00:26:33.559
welcome back. James Albin had a
couple of ase hits he got the

366
00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:37.960
start was two for four on top
of it. It's going to be interesting

367
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:41.839
to see now what happens with Miguel
Vargas the pinch at home run in the

368
00:26:41.920 --> 00:26:45.480
eighth inning and last night's ballgame,
because he continues to swing the bat.

369
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:51.000
He's really a player, well,
he can say, I think realistically kind

370
00:26:51.000 --> 00:26:55.759
of without a position. He was
at second base to begin with, lost

371
00:26:55.799 --> 00:27:00.359
that job. If we're looking back
in the history of Vargas, then they

372
00:27:00.440 --> 00:27:03.839
moved him to left field, and
now we're seeing him take some ground balls

373
00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:07.480
also at third base, so is
it a transition as well. One thing

374
00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:10.680
about it, if you can hit, they'll find a position for you,

375
00:27:10.799 --> 00:27:14.359
no doubt about it. And it
feels like the Dodgers have noticed his maturity

376
00:27:14.680 --> 00:27:18.960
from last year to this year.
He is more prepared and obviously has a

377
00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:22.640
better mental head about where things are
for him early going. But what I've

378
00:27:22.680 --> 00:27:27.079
noticed so far, he's got better
knowledge of the strength zone away and that

379
00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:33.519
was I think problematic for him initially, the breaking ball away, no question

380
00:27:33.599 --> 00:27:36.640
about it. It's a tough pitch
to begin with, but I didn't think

381
00:27:36.680 --> 00:27:38.519
he really knew where the outside corner
was for a long period of time,

382
00:27:38.960 --> 00:27:42.279
maybe he has now made the adjustment
and understands that you have to know your

383
00:27:42.319 --> 00:27:47.400
strength zone. It's interpreted by the
umpire, there's no question about it.

384
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:52.039
But if you're vulnerable in one particular
area versus another, that's something to work

385
00:27:52.079 --> 00:27:53.119
on. People say, well,
you can take fly balls, you can

386
00:27:53.160 --> 00:27:56.000
improve the outfield, you can take
ground balls, you can improve the infield.

387
00:27:56.039 --> 00:28:00.240
Granted, but if you've got a
weakness and you don't observe it from

388
00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:03.559
a hitting standpoint, if there is
a for example, there are some players

389
00:28:03.559 --> 00:28:08.079
that you can look at and say, in fact, the Dodgers have a

390
00:28:08.079 --> 00:28:12.759
couple of guys too, a very
high percentage of calls strike threes are away.

391
00:28:14.880 --> 00:28:18.440
Well, is it because they're fooled
by the pictures? Because they don't

392
00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:22.799
know the outside corner? We're the
limits of that corner. And that's something

393
00:28:22.799 --> 00:28:25.599
that I think in this day and
age, with all the information you can

394
00:28:25.640 --> 00:28:29.119
find, it's a hitter's benefit to
understand, Hey, is there one location

395
00:28:29.200 --> 00:28:33.160
in the plate that I'm having difficulty
recognizing baller strike? One thing you don't

396
00:28:33.200 --> 00:28:37.039
see Rick when it comes to that
is how about moving closer to the plate

397
00:28:37.160 --> 00:28:41.440
If you're having trouble with that outside
pitch, but that again, what if

398
00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:45.000
you're vulnerable on the pitch inside.
I mean, there's a lot of different

399
00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:48.519
things to go into it. And
I said this last night of the broadcast

400
00:28:48.599 --> 00:28:52.759
with ten Nevert. I really think
that now I'm looking at it slanted because

401
00:28:52.799 --> 00:28:56.039
having played the game. But I
think, really, if you look at

402
00:28:56.039 --> 00:29:02.039
professional sports, someone can enlighten me. They have something else that is different.

403
00:29:02.039 --> 00:29:06.440
In the mind. I think hitting
a baseball, just the pure difficulty

404
00:29:06.440 --> 00:29:11.440
in hitting a baseball, at least
in my estimation, is probably, if

405
00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:15.359
not the one of the most difficult
things to do in professional sports, because

406
00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:21.720
it's a reaction to an action.
Really, the picture has the action,

407
00:29:22.119 --> 00:29:25.960
you have the reaction. And I
use the analogy a lot. If you

408
00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:29.480
take your car keys or your house
keys, hold them belt high, and

409
00:29:29.519 --> 00:29:32.960
drop them on the floor, that's
the amount of time that hitter has to

410
00:29:33.000 --> 00:29:37.599
discern the velocity, the trajectory,
is it a ball, is it a

411
00:29:37.640 --> 00:29:41.839
strike, what's the situation? And
then swing a bat that weighs two pounds.

412
00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:44.920
We refer to it announces because it
sounds lighter than two pounds, but

413
00:29:44.960 --> 00:29:48.079
they weigh thirty two plus ounces,
and then you have to hit it between

414
00:29:48.119 --> 00:29:51.960
the white lines, and then you
have to hit it between the white lines

415
00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:53.720
and nobody standing out there with the
glove catches it. Other than that,

416
00:29:53.799 --> 00:29:57.440
hitting is easy. Jeez, Rick, I'm exhausted just listening. Listen to

417
00:29:57.519 --> 00:30:00.839
you explain that. See now there's
reason you didn't hit particularly well and little

418
00:30:02.960 --> 00:30:04.599
at least I have an out now
now I understand why. But I know

419
00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:07.480
you can go back to your little
legue coach and tell him, Hey,

420
00:30:07.519 --> 00:30:10.240
coach, I found out. I
did some study and I was able to

421
00:30:10.240 --> 00:30:12.720
find it out. It's really difficult
to do, and you can't do it

422
00:30:12.799 --> 00:30:17.160
like I used to do with my
tests. You can't cram at the last

423
00:30:17.200 --> 00:30:18.519
minute. You have to have a
plan. You can't go to home play

424
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:22.079
for a lot of things written onto
the palm of your hand. Thanks Rick,

425
00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:26.240
I'm gonna take a nap after that. We'll send it back to you

426

00:31:56.039 --> 00:31:59.559
Man. He's been he's been killing
it in the minor leagues right now,

447
00:31:59.599 --> 00:32:04.200
and and he obviously deserves his shot. He's been working really hard. So

448
00:32:04.640 --> 00:32:07.319
I've met him. I've met him
a few times before, and he's really

449
00:32:07.359 --> 00:32:10.359
good dude, And I know he's
got really good stuff, and he's got

450
00:32:10.359 --> 00:32:14.240
the stuff to compete in the major
leagues. And I guess you let me

451
00:32:14.319 --> 00:32:16.680
know that he has the good luck
number because he's wearing your old number,

452
00:32:16.759 --> 00:32:21.400
number seventy when you made your major
league debut. That's all right, that's

453
00:32:21.440 --> 00:32:24.880
a pretty good number. Obviously not
mine anymore, but I like it.

454
00:32:25.200 --> 00:32:29.920
If you were to give him a
piece of advice in a major league debut,

455
00:32:30.039 --> 00:32:32.920
what would it be. I would
say, just trust your stuff.

456
00:32:34.240 --> 00:32:37.880
Don't think about the major league stadium
or the fans or anything like that.

457
00:32:37.960 --> 00:32:40.519
It's really just the same game,
you know. That's the best advice I

458
00:32:40.559 --> 00:32:45.240
could give is a trust the guy
behind the plate. Will I'm pretty sure

459
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:47.960
he's catching today. He's a really
good catcher. Trust the guy behind the

460
00:32:49.000 --> 00:32:52.279
play. Trust your stuff. Just
know that your stuff is gonna play,

461
00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:54.319
you know, like whatever got you
here, just just keep doing that and

462
00:32:54.640 --> 00:32:58.960
stick with your strengths. It feels
like you're a seasoned veteran now with all

463
00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:00.519
these young guys around you. I
mean, I would have to say after

464
00:33:00.599 --> 00:33:07.400
Glass now and uh Kershaw, Bobby
Miller maybe has more major league time after

465
00:33:07.519 --> 00:33:10.519
James Paxton. Oh no, I'm
still I'm still a young guy. I'm

466
00:33:10.519 --> 00:33:14.839
still a young guy. I'm still
a student of the game as always.

467
00:33:14.880 --> 00:33:16.480
So but yeah, there, there's
there's a lot of guys to look up

468
00:33:16.480 --> 00:33:20.519
to on the seam, and a
lot of guys you can pick brains and

469
00:33:20.519 --> 00:33:24.279
and yeah, who do you pick
the brain of most? I try to

470
00:33:24.359 --> 00:33:28.799
I try to get Kershaw here and
there. Yeah, but uh no,

471
00:33:28.960 --> 00:33:31.759
I talked to Glass a lot.
He's a really good guy, another tall

472
00:33:31.799 --> 00:33:35.920
guy with a good velocity, a
good breaking ball. So I try to

473
00:33:35.920 --> 00:33:38.279
pick his brain a lot. When
he's making a start ahead of you and

474
00:33:38.319 --> 00:33:43.480
you're facing the same team, will
you take notes, h Yeah for sure.

475
00:33:43.799 --> 00:33:45.920
But he's also got a little bit
of different stuff than me, obviously,

476
00:33:45.920 --> 00:33:50.400
like different release. I had a
different extension a little bit of a

477
00:33:50.440 --> 00:33:53.359
different breaking ball. So but yeah, I definitely take notes. I watch

478
00:33:53.440 --> 00:33:57.319
every pitch he throws, so I
try to take notes on him. Speaking

479
00:33:57.359 --> 00:34:01.039
of Clayton Kershaw, you were hanging
over the dugout reeling watching him throw a

480
00:34:01.039 --> 00:34:06.000
simulated game today. What did you
see from him today that you could share?

481
00:34:06.640 --> 00:34:09.320
I thought it was good. It
all depends on what you ask him.

482
00:34:09.360 --> 00:34:13.920
At the same time, you know, no matter how he looks out

483
00:34:13.960 --> 00:34:15.000
here, like good or bad,
you know he's always going to be ready

484
00:34:15.000 --> 00:34:19.760
when the lights turn on in the
stadium. So there's never a worry about

485
00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:23.079
clacking Kershaw. So yeah, no
matter how it goes good or bad or

486
00:34:23.079 --> 00:34:28.400
whatever it is, he's always gonna
be ready when when he pitches in a

487
00:34:28.440 --> 00:34:31.360
real game. So no worries or
anything. And he looks great, so

488
00:34:31.480 --> 00:34:36.840
will Bobby Miller. You're going to
be pitching again in a playoff environment in

489
00:34:36.880 --> 00:34:39.960
Philadelphia. On Tuesday, we talked
about your major league debut that was in

490
00:34:40.039 --> 00:34:45.280
Atlanta, similar type of atmosphere.
How much are you feeding off that,

491
00:34:45.559 --> 00:34:49.440
thriving and looking forward to that?
Ah, you know, I like to

492
00:34:49.480 --> 00:34:52.800
live up to these moments. I
feel like I'm born to pitch in these

493
00:34:52.800 --> 00:34:54.199
moments, you know, the big
games and stuff like that, and that's

494
00:34:54.199 --> 00:34:58.840
something I'm always living for and really
excited for. And yeah, it's a

495
00:34:58.840 --> 00:35:01.119
really it's a really good baseball team
that we're facing. So I'm always looking

496
00:35:01.119 --> 00:35:05.679
to face the best competition available.
Are you starting to feel like yourself again?

497
00:35:06.400 --> 00:35:09.719
Yeah? Yeah, I'm getting a
lot of confidence back. Still wasn't

498
00:35:09.880 --> 00:35:13.480
like the best my stuff has been, but you know, I got away

499
00:35:13.519 --> 00:35:15.880
with it, so you know that's
a big confidence builder, and uh,

500
00:35:15.360 --> 00:35:19.440
just looking to find some consistency here, all right. Before I let you

501
00:35:19.480 --> 00:35:22.519
go, I just want to let
you know that I got the stamp of

502
00:35:22.599 --> 00:35:27.519
approval from Mookie bets on Bobby Ice
because you got the tattoo, you got

503
00:35:27.519 --> 00:35:30.800
the Ice chain when you walk into
the stadium on your start days. So

504
00:35:30.400 --> 00:35:34.519
Mookie loves the nickname. All right, all right, that's good to know,

505
00:35:34.760 --> 00:35:37.840
all right, but you still are
lukewarm on it. I don't I

506
00:35:37.840 --> 00:35:40.159
don't mind it. I just don't
call myself that. I'm just me.

507
00:35:40.360 --> 00:35:45.159
So yeah, you are a great
guy, Bobby Miller, easy guy to

508
00:35:45.239 --> 00:35:46.760
cheer for, Bobby. That's why
the fans love you. And thanks a

509
00:35:46.760 --> 00:35:51.119
lot for your time. And we'll
see you in Philly. Appreciate it seeing

554
00:39:00.000 --> 00:39:02.039
He has to sweep the Brewers.
Brewers have only been swept once this year,

555
00:39:02.079 --> 00:39:06.559
by the way, by the Philadelphia
Phillies in early June, so the

556
00:39:06.559 --> 00:39:09.679
Dodgers looking to hand them their second
three game sweep of the season. Dallas

557
00:39:09.800 --> 00:39:15.119
Kikel, who was with the Seattle
Mariners in the minor leagues in Triple A

558
00:39:15.639 --> 00:39:21.239
before he was traded to the Brewers
on the twenty fifth of June for cash.

559
00:39:21.679 --> 00:39:28.159
He'll make his third start with the
Brewers meantime. Justin Robleski started at

560
00:39:28.159 --> 00:39:31.639
Clemson, finished at Oklahoma State and
has had the fast track through the minor

561
00:39:31.760 --> 00:39:35.400
leagues. Most of his starts have
been in double A. This year,

562
00:39:35.679 --> 00:39:38.920
he's had just two Triple A starts
with Oklahoma City. He's twenty three years

563
00:39:38.920 --> 00:39:42.760
of age and he is on the
Big League mound here this afternoon, and

564
00:39:42.800 --> 00:39:45.719
he would like to get an early
birthday president. I say that, well,

565
00:39:45.760 --> 00:39:47.840
it's kind of an early birthday president
to begin with. Making his Major

566
00:39:47.880 --> 00:39:52.000
LA debut. He turns twenty four
one week from today, and he becomes

567
00:39:52.039 --> 00:39:57.400
the twenty ninth different pitcher the Dodgers
have used so far this season. That

568
00:39:57.519 --> 00:40:00.599
first start that he had in Triple
A, he struck at eleven in five

569
00:40:00.679 --> 00:40:04.679
innings. We'll see how the left
he controls the nerves today. He's got

570
00:40:04.679 --> 00:40:07.199
a fastball in the upper nineties,
a cutter, a curveball, and a

571
00:40:07.360 --> 00:40:13.880
changeup. Eleventh round pick in twenty
twenty one out of Oklahoma State SOP.

572
00:40:14.000 --> 00:40:17.000
He's had Tommy Johns surgery, He's
had a broken jaw. He's had a

573
00:40:17.000 --> 00:40:21.559
bunch of injuries. But he is
healthy and pitching exceptionally well. And the
