00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:19.079
Monday night, the homestead continues for
your Los Angeles Dodgers, who are fifty

00:00:19.160 --> 00:00:23.239
nine and forty one on this season, first place atop the nl West,

5
00:00:23.559 --> 00:00:27.960
an eight game lead in the division. After a three game sweep over the

6
00:00:28.039 --> 00:00:32.640
weekend, the Dodgers looked to keep
the winning going after beating Boston. Now

7
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:37.799
the San Francisco Giants come to town
for a four game series. River Ryan,

8
00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:42.079
Dodger, pitching prospect called up from
the minor leagues, makes his major

9
00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:46.359
league debut to night. First pitch
from Dodger Stadium is coming up at seven

10
00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:49.880
to ten. Between then and now, we got a lot to get to

11
00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:53.840
here on Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck. You are gonna hear from the manager,

12
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:57.640
Dave Roberts. You are gonna hear
from former Dodger Andre Eh Here,

13
00:00:57.719 --> 00:01:00.640
we're gonna preview this pitching matchup for
you. We've also got a Dodgers magical

14
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:04.560
moment. Shortly, we'll check out
Kirsten Watson from sports and at LA and

15
00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:07.959
in just a few minutes we'll head
out to the Gaalpin Motors broadcast booth and

16
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:14.040
here from Steven Nelson and Jose Modal. Yesterday at the Ravine, Pas didn't

17
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:17.920
prove to give the Dodgers some length
in his final outing while the Dodgers played

18
00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:22.560
home run derby against the Red Sox. Pitching Yeah, James Paxson DFA today

19
00:01:22.599 --> 00:01:26.000
by the Dodgers yesterday and what will
be his final start in a Dodger uniform.

20
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:30.519
Five innings, three runs, four
hits, seven strikeouts, walked four.

21
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:34.000
He gave up a two run of
home run to Jared Duran in the

22
00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:38.959
first inning through twenty six pitches.
Didn't look like he'd be out there long

23
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:42.760
in the first after giving up a
two to nothing lead, but the Dodgers

24
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:45.760
chipped away Freddie Freeman his solo home
run at the bottom of the first.

25
00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:51.519
Gavin Luxon followed up with an RBI
double as the Dodgers tied it up at

26
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:55.000
two. Then in the third,
the Dodgers took the lead thanks to the

27
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:59.840
home run derby Champ Taskernendez. Two
ball, two strike pitch too, Tasker

28
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:02.120
swings it's a high fly ball to
right toward the corner. It's deep,

29
00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:08.039
it is heading back, it has
gone a home run. Tayoscar Hernandez gives

30
00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:13.800
the Dodgers a three to two lead
with his twentieth home run of a caesar

31
00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:19.840
and opposite field blast over the short
wall in the right field corner and ta

32
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:27.000
Oscars, the home run derby champion
gets his first home run since he won

33
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:30.840
the titles. To ask Hernandez with
the solo shot. Dodgers a three to

34
00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:32.759
two lead in the third and they
were just getting started. That was the

35
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:36.840
second home run for the Dodgers.
The third came in the fourth inning from

36
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:39.680
Gavin and Locks's solo home run.
Dodgers afforded two. Then in the fifth,

37
00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:45.120
Austin Barnes a solo home run to
give the Dodgers a five to two

38
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:47.159
lead. That was the fourth home
run for the Dodgers. Later in the

39
00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:54.360
fifth, Showy o'tani with an absolute
bomb to one is hammered deep right center

40
00:02:54.479 --> 00:03:00.960
field, way out of here,
and o'tani joins the home party. A

41
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:06.280
thirty home run season for Shaw hel
Tonys. Oh, how do you like

42
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:13.039
that? An absolute no doubter crushed
to the top of the pavilion and deep

43
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:20.080
right center field, four one hundred
and seventy three feet, just past the

44
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:23.919
DISO sign in right center field,
underneath the awning and out into the center

45
00:03:23.960 --> 00:03:29.560
field plaza. One of the farthest
home runs ever hit at Dodgers Stadium.

46
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:31.599
That one four hundred and seventy three
feet in the fifth homer of the day

47
00:03:31.599 --> 00:03:36.039
for the Dodgers as they grabbed a
six to two lead. They'd score more

48
00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:39.599
runs in the eighth Cavin b Show
and Harbi single Chason Hayward getting into the

49
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:44.639
home run fun a two run shot
that gave the Dodgers a ninety three lead.

50
00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:47.800
They hit six home runs in the
game. They had ten hits as

51
00:03:47.800 --> 00:03:53.719
a team. Six of the Dodgers
hits or home runs. As the Dodgers

52
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:58.080
go on and beat the Boston Red
Sox nine to six yesterday, James Paxson

53
00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:01.439
gets the win. He's eight and
two and then against DFA earlier today.

54
00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:04.639
To make room for River Ryan,
Daniel Hudson came in and got the save

55
00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:10.319
after having Phillips struggled to get one
out. He gave up three runs in

56
00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:13.759
the ninth inny More on that coming
up, Daniel Hudson cleaned up the mess.

57
00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:16.439
He gets the save as the Dodgers
get the final win against Boston and

58
00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:20.360
they get the three games sweep over
the Red Soxes are now fifty nine and

59
00:04:20.519 --> 00:04:25.480
forty one overall. The Dodgers a
three game lead, or make that an

60
00:04:25.480 --> 00:04:29.319
eight game lead in the division as
they are cruising right now post All Star

61
00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:32.319
Break and those home runs all brought
to you by Arco Quality, top tier

62
00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:35.920
gas for less. Dodgers look to
keep the foot on the gas tonight as

63
00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:40.439
they welcome the San Francisco Giants to
town for a four game set. River

64
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:43.600
Ryan makes his Major league debut first
pitch at seven to ten, and with

65
00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:46.240
more we head out to the Gallpin
Motors broadcast booth as we welcome in Steven

66
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:50.120
Nelson, Jose Mota, guys,
thank you, Tim Beck edit a Dodgers

67
00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:55.160
stadium, a four game series on
tap against the rival Giants, trying to

68
00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:58.240
get some payback for what happened at
the end of June there at oor Park

69
00:04:58.319 --> 00:05:00.959
with the Dodgers dropping two of three, but hose modup. Great to be

70
00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:03.879
with you, my friend, and
great to be with you on the heels

71
00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:09.519
of a Dodger sweep. We have
seen this club kind of struggle to finish

72
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:12.480
off series, sweep the legs,
so to speak, and sweep a team

73
00:05:12.519 --> 00:05:15.800
out here. They did that against
Boston, who went into the break as

74
00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:17.120
the best team in baseball. They
did, Stephen, And by the way,

75
00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:20.959
good to see you with my friend
nice. You know, one thing

76
00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:24.720
that I noticed, it really caught
my eye right away, was okay,

77
00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:27.879
coming out of the break, how
are the starting pitchers going to do right?

78
00:05:27.959 --> 00:05:30.120
And then he saw the youngster step
up. You know that you didn't

79
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:32.759
have glass now and you saw the
veterans step up. But I think that

80
00:05:32.839 --> 00:05:36.439
was very encouraging. There's no doubt
Stephen, as the season goes along that

81
00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:42.600
as your starting pitching goes, so
goes the team. But but the offense

82
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:45.560
needed to step up. And actually
they got off to a very slow and

83
00:05:45.639 --> 00:05:48.240
silent start against the Boston Red Sox, and then they just caught fire at

84
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:50.360
the right moment. They caught fire, and I think it's it's important to

85
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:54.360
see that. It's great to see
the power come out. But I go

86
00:05:54.480 --> 00:05:57.959
back to starting pitching giving you a
chance, because dat alignes the bullpen a

87
00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:00.360
little bit better, and certainly the
role are more defined, and that's always

88
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:03.800
good for the guys coming out of
that panta. On that note, starting

89
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:09.160
pitching, you know, James Paxton, his turn yesterday gave the Dodgers a

90
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:13.800
first win from a starting pitcher since
Gavin Stone's complete game shout out way back.

91
00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:16.240
It seems like forever ago on June
twenty sixth, on the South side

92
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:21.040
of Chicago, seventeen consecutive starts without
a starter getting a win. Paxson gets

93
00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:25.040
it, and then the very next
day, this afternoon, he gets designated

94
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:28.040
for assignment. That's the business of
basement that we're living in right now.

95
00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:30.120
And James Paxson, a guy that, as Dave Roberts just said a few

96
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:33.720
minutes ago, took it the right
way. He understands very quickly what this

97
00:06:33.920 --> 00:06:36.639
is all about. He came out
and gave the Dodgers everything they wanted.

98
00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:41.399
He still when I'm beating here in
this ballpark going forward with a class guy

99
00:06:41.439 --> 00:06:44.040
like that, we wish him the
very best. Yeah, packs an absolute

100
00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:46.600
pro. He got a phone call
from both Brandon Gomes and Dave Roberts and

101
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:51.480
handled it as the veteran professional that
he is. And what this does signal

102
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:56.680
what it should signal to Dodger fans
who were scratching their heads at that move,

103
00:06:56.839 --> 00:07:00.839
is that there are guys coming back. Tyler last Now we'll be back

104
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:03.720
this week. Clayton Kershaw will make
his season debut. Walker Buehler is here

105
00:07:03.759 --> 00:07:08.600
at Dodger Stadium. He will soon
begin a re rehab assignment. Bobby Miller's

106
00:07:08.600 --> 00:07:12.439
rehab assignment in Oklahoma City. It
got off to a good start. Bruce

107
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:15.879
Darcgraderal, Brian Brazier. All of
these guys are getting healthier, which means

108
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:19.680
tough roster decisions have to be made. And who knows that the trade deadline,

109
00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:25.040
oh what is it? Nine days
away? Who knows if James Paxson

110
00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:28.199
is somebody who can help and give
the organization something in return in addition to

111
00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:30.480
all the starts that he gave throughout
the first half and change. All right,

112
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:32.439
TC, we're gonna step aside for
a little breathing. When we come

113
00:07:32.439 --> 00:07:35.439
back, we're gonna talk about the
big debut. We're gonna see a Dodger

114
00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:39.519

00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:35.919
Dodgers, River Ryan and Blake Snell. The pitching matchup tonight in the series

128
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:45.840
opener, first pitch at seven ten. This is the Otani rewind to one

of the pavilion and deep right center
field four one hundred and seventy three feet

of the year four hundred and seventy
three feet RBI number seventy on this season

135
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:24.360

three point fifteen on this season on base

136
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:31.039
percentage over four hundred and slugging at
a six thirty eight percentage. It is

This is Kirston's Corner with Kirston Watson.

142
00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:58.799
Hey Kirson now joins this before the
opener of this San Francisco series the first

143
00:09:58.879 --> 00:10:03.679
of four against the Giant. A
river runs through Dodger Stadium. Tonight's River

144
00:10:03.879 --> 00:10:07.000
Ryan gets to start in his major
league debut, Kirston, he sure does.

145
00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:11.000
And first let me say, River
Ryan is such a great name,

146
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:16.200
like that just feels like starting pitcher
for the Los Angeles Dodgers. River Ryan

147
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:20.799
just so strong. Anyway, he
is someone he's making, as you mentioned,

148
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:24.399
making his major league debut today,
Dave Roberts is, he's excited for

149
00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:28.320
it. This is someone who's shown
a lot of really positive things this year,

150
00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:31.200
only a handful of starts because he
did deal with some injury to start

151
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:33.879
the year, a little bit of
shoulder fatigue. But you know, he's

152
00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:39.120
really strong right now. He's healthy. The pitching, the coaches, this

153
00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:41.200
organization, they've been really impressed with
what they've been seeing from him. A

154
00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:45.399
lot of high velocity throws, some
hard stuff, and so Dave said,

155
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:48.879
it's going to be important just to
see how he works with the catcher today

156
00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:52.000
they kind of get him in a
good spot and manage this one against the

157
00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:56.000
Giants. But they're excited for him, and honestly, this is someone they've

158
00:10:56.039 --> 00:10:58.879
had their eyes on for a little
bit because even if we go back to

159
00:10:58.960 --> 00:11:03.440
win, Bobby Miller was optioned to
Triple A. When we were talking to

160
00:11:03.559 --> 00:11:05.919
Dave Roberts briefly, he was just
saying, you know, this is someone

161
00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:09.799
they had their eyes on, but
at that time he had just pitched and

162
00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:15.080
they didn't really know what was happening
with Bobby just yet. So you know

163
00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:18.519
the fact that now River is getting
this opportunity is really exciting. His family,

164
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:22.679
of course, is here, so
it'll be a really special day for

165
00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:24.559
him, no doubt about it.
He gets to start, that means somebody

166
00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:28.120
has to go out, and that
was James Paxson dfaid. Yeah, and

167
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:33.519
that was a tough one. James
has obviously been a really he's been a

168
00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:37.000
steady arm in the rotation for the
team this year, and yes there were

169
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:39.440
some ups and downs with the walks
and things like that, but he was

170
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:43.000
he would find ways to execute when
the time would come. And so Dave

171
00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:46.440
was saying, you know, that
was definitely a tough conversation, and he's

172
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:50.080
a veteran, so obviously he handled
it as such. And so we'll kind

173
00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:54.559
of see what happens next, but
at this moment he has been dfaide and

174
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:56.399
so they'll kind of see if that
can maybe turn into a trade or what

175
00:11:56.559 --> 00:12:01.879
that means. But for for now, it's they feel really good with the

176
00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:05.360
arms that they have, not only
currently in the rotation with some of these

177
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:09.799
young ones, whether it's Landon Nak, Justin Roglisky and now River Ryan,

178
00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:15.559
but also there are a lot of
arms coming back. Clayton Kershaw is going

179
00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:18.840
to pitch in this series, and
you've got Glass now Tyler Glasnow's returning from

180
00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:22.799
his injury and it's going to pitch
in this series. So they do feel

181
00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:26.759
very good just to where things are
at with the news of James Packs and

182
00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:30.960
being Dfane. We'll see what River
Ryan can do tonight. Certainly exciting night

183
00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:33.519
for him. Kirsten, We appreciate

for good times. River Ryan makes
his major league debut for the Dodgers,

196
00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:39.919
first pitch at sevent ten. It's
the LA Dodgers Injury Report presented by UCLA

197
00:13:39.039 --> 00:13:43.879
Healthy Official medical partner of the Los
Angeles Dodgers. Tyler Glasstow on the il

00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:46.240
with backsniff stiffness. He is set
to come off the IEL in a couple

199
00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:50.200
of days and make us start,
as is Clayton Kershaw, who scheduled to

200
00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:54.720
pitch on Thursday. Mookie bets on
the iel at the fractured left hand.

201
00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:58.120
He is starting to do a little
bit more activities as far as the wrist

202
00:13:58.159 --> 00:14:01.960
and hand. His concern. Yoshanovayamamoto
on the iel to strain rotator cuff.

203
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:05.759
Walker Buehler is back with the Dodgers
team and throwing. He's on the iel.

204
00:14:05.879 --> 00:14:09.120
The sword hit. Michael Grove went
on a minor league reab assignmoned yesterday

205
00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:13.080
at Oka See along with Bruce dar
Gratoroal and Ryan Brazier. All right,

206
00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:16.320
let's head back out to Dodger Stadium
and get the pregame thought to the Dodgers

207
00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:22.399
giver questions for Dave Dave? Can
you just describe Dave? Can you talk

208
00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:31.080
about the pressure in the dugouts with
Dave Roberts River. This is something that

209
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:35.399
is really exciting for us. We
got him by way of trade a few

210
00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:41.000
years ago. Position player, shortstop, very athletic. It was a two

211
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:46.159
way guy, and you know now
he's kind of really shot through our system

212
00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:52.360
as a pitcher. It's big stuff. It's a high velocity fastball. There's

213
00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:54.320
a curb bow, there's a slider, a change up in there, and

214
00:14:54.679 --> 00:15:01.159
a very confident young man. He's
gonna attack guys, and so it's kind

215
00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:05.039
of how we sequence, you know, put down the right fingers and keep

216
00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:11.720
those guys off balance. It's a
team that hasn't seen him, he hasn't

217
00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:15.919
seen them, So just go out
there and just try to execute. Just

218
00:15:16.080 --> 00:15:20.120
manage his emotions. I had a
good conversation with him earlier and there's going

219
00:15:20.159 --> 00:15:24.480
to be some adrenaline, so I'm
expecting him to manage those emotions once the

220
00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:31.679
game gets going. Figuring sort of
this year Lars huge to seal the comer

221
00:15:31.080 --> 00:15:35.919
he's training over here. Well,
One, we feel he's healthy. The

222
00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:41.159
build up has been good. What
that looks like in a major league game

223
00:15:41.080 --> 00:15:48.320
is to be determined given pitches in
a particular inning, the stress. But

224
00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:52.919
he's built up fine to pitch obviously
in a major league game, and I'm

225
00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:56.480
excited to see what he's got.
But first and foremost, we feel he's

226
00:15:56.519 --> 00:15:58.919
healthy and he can handle it,
you know, as far as the mature

227
00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:03.080
Dan, he's ready. Everybody excited
for River Ryan. That is Dave Roberts

Giants. I'm Tim Kasi's Los Angeles

Snell. The pitching match out first pitch

237
00:16:45.039 --> 00:16:51.879
coming up at seventeen. Joining Tim
Kats on Dodgers on Deck. I accept

238
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:56.159
everybody for who they are. This
is Dodger insider David Basse. All right,

239
00:16:56.279 --> 00:17:00.279
d V, you're the perfect person
to explain this. Jane Paxston's DFA,

240
00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:04.559
Why today? Why was that important? Well, there are a few

241
00:17:04.680 --> 00:17:12.440
reasons to the Dodgers letting James Paxton
be placed on waivers today. Number one,

242
00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:18.440
they needed a forty man roster spot
to free up to have River Ryan

243
00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:22.920
make his major league debut. Number
two, the Dodgers are going to bring

244
00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:27.880
up some relievers because Clayton Kershaw is
going to be limited on Thursday. Tyler

245
00:17:27.960 --> 00:17:33.400
Glass now hasn't pitched in nearly a
month on Wednesday Night, so that's another

246
00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:37.839
part of this. Also, the
Dodgers are going to get back Bobby Miller

247
00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:42.000
and Walker Bueller here in the near
future, and they have seen Justin Robleski

248
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:47.319
Landon Nak hold it down pretty well
as as time has gone on here.

249
00:17:47.599 --> 00:17:52.000
So James Paxton was kind of the
odd man out, and it feels like

250
00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:56.000
the Dodgers going into this season just
needed Paxton to give them innings for the

251
00:17:56.079 --> 00:18:02.440
first half of the season and always
thought that he might be included in a

252
00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:06.559
trade, which is just eight days
away as far as the trade deadline goes.

253
00:18:06.680 --> 00:18:11.480
So all of that was part of
the timing of today. And also

254
00:18:11.839 --> 00:18:15.039
keep in mind it didn't look like
James Paxton was going to be part of

255
00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:21.359
the Dodgers playoff picture as far as
being on the postseason roster. So that

256
00:18:21.680 --> 00:18:26.599
is the multi layer reasons that I
was told by Andrew Freeman on why the

257
00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:32.720
Dodgers decided to DFA James Paxton today, David is driven by four. There's

258
00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:36.160
one thing we like, it's choices
find yours with the four and f one

259
00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:40.200
to fifty they got gas hybrid or
the all electric tough This mark can only

260
00:18:40.279 --> 00:18:42.920
be called f one fifty. All
right, David, what's going on with

261
00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:48.279
Evan Phillips. Well, you know, Jose Mota and I talked about it

262
00:18:48.359 --> 00:18:52.440
on Dodger Talk last night. It
doesn't feel like this is a complete,

263
00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:57.759
irreparable situation as far as him getting
back on track. It just feels like

264
00:18:57.839 --> 00:19:04.480
he's relied on that sweeper slider pitch
that really got him to become this reliable

265
00:19:04.880 --> 00:19:10.680
late inning reliever for the Dodgers,
but it just hasn't been there the last

266
00:19:10.759 --> 00:19:15.000
three weeks, and he has gotten
hurt because he can't land it for a

267
00:19:15.079 --> 00:19:18.880
strike, he can't make it look
like a strike, and he's not using

268
00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:23.720
his fastball. His fastball's fine ninety
six miles an hour. He's got to

269
00:19:25.000 --> 00:19:30.799
establish fastball command before he starts to
go to the sweeper, and maybe that

270
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:36.079
also will bring back his confidence,
because we are not seeing a very confident

271
00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:40.440
Evan Phillips on the mound. Tave
real quick. The Dodger's gonna honor Willie

272
00:19:40.480 --> 00:19:45.960
Mays. Yeah, obviously we lost
one of the greatest, if not the

273
00:19:45.079 --> 00:19:51.359
greatest player a few weeks ago,
and Willie Mays and the Dodgers certainly had

274
00:19:51.400 --> 00:19:56.519
a lot of battles. And this
is the first Dodger Giants game since Willie

275
00:19:56.519 --> 00:20:00.400
May has passed away here in Los
Angeles, and Willie May's his son,

276
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:03.720
Michael, is here in attendance,
and right before first pitch, the Dodgers

277
00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:07.599
are going to honor the great Willie
Mays, who, by the way,

278
00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:12.400
Tim played ninety games at Dodgers Stadium
in his career at two sixty six and

279
00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:18.839
had eleven home runs playing for the
San Francisco Giants and at the end of

280
00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:21.799
his career the New York Mets.
How about that? Did not know that?

281
00:20:21.880 --> 00:20:22.960
Great information? Dave. We'll check
back with you in just a little

282
00:20:22.960 --> 00:20:26.599
bit. Coming up here on Marongo
Casino Dodgers on Deck, we'll hear more

283
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:32.640
from David Veast. He'll go one
on one with Andre Ethier up next,

284
00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:37.200
though, we'll dive deeper into this
pitching matchup as well. But your magical

285
00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:41.000
moment when we return. Yeah,
Dodgers Giants, what a rivalry. First

290
00:21:03.839 --> 00:21:08.039
Dodgers. One of their top pitching
prospects, Blake Snell, Cy Young Award

291
00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:11.519
winner a year ago, goes for
San Francisco. First pitch coming up at

Moment Bitch Magical presented by Hawby Hot Dogs.

294

The Dodgers and Giants. What a
rivalry they have had going all the

295
00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:34.359
way back to New York and the
two teams moving out west together to San

296
00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:38.759
Francisco and to Los Angeles. With
this rivalry matchup, well, we go

297
00:21:38.839 --> 00:21:44.799
back to twenty seventeen, September twenty
second, Dodgers taking on the Giants and

298
00:21:44.920 --> 00:21:52.920
the Dodgers clenched the Division yet again. One strike away and the Dodgers will

299
00:21:53.000 --> 00:21:59.680
visit an area that no team has
visited five consecutive Western Division titles. Janson

300
00:21:59.720 --> 00:22:03.039
look again, Rider bench hitting here
in the ninth unning four to one Dodgers

301
00:22:03.759 --> 00:22:07.640
Big Kinley with the one to two
on the way, God damn walking strike

302
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:14.839
three, and the celebration begins on
the field. Jansen mob by his teammates

303
00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:19.359
in a season that has been one
hundred and fifty four games to this particular

304
00:22:19.480 --> 00:22:25.319
point, and they had done it
again. The Los Angeles Dodgers, for

305
00:22:25.519 --> 00:22:30.720
the fifth consecutive years are the champions
of the National League Western Division, Dodgers

306
00:22:30.799 --> 00:22:37.559
clenching the NL West in twenty seventeen, doing it against the San Francisco Giants.

307
00:22:37.599 --> 00:22:40.400

310
00:22:48.039 --> 00:22:52.559
on Deck, we'll check in with
Jose Mota, the lead jumps the first

311
00:22:52.599 --> 00:23:00.759
pitch Dodgers Giants. I'm Tim Kasi's
Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network, Casino Dodgers

312
00:23:00.839 --> 00:23:06.799
on Dodgers on Deck, y'all on
the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.

313
00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:11.359
Dodgers and Giants started a four game
sent Dodgers three to zero. After the

314
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:15.000
All Star Break, River Ryan makes
his major league debut for the Dodgers.

315
00:23:15.039 --> 00:23:18.559
First Bitch coming up at seven to
ten. Dodgers fans, start your future

316
00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:22.960

aid it's available. It can help you

317
00:23:23.039 --> 00:23:26.240

318
00:23:26.279 --> 00:23:30.000
to take that next big step.
Come on. Classes can fill up quickly,

319
00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:33.599
so en roll today and I can
go to college dot com. And

320
00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:40.680
now joined by David Bassey, here's
La Dodgers broadcaster and World Series champion Dodger

321
00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:45.920
Rick Monday. Rick Monday will rejoin
us in Houston after the Dodgers close out

322
00:23:45.960 --> 00:23:52.960
this homestand against the San Francisco Giants. And what an eventful series this is

323
00:23:52.279 --> 00:23:59.079
starting tonight Jose Moda with River Ryan
making his major league debut. Don't you

324
00:23:59.200 --> 00:24:02.680
love that? Just to see debut
next to a young player's name, Big

325
00:24:02.799 --> 00:24:07.440
expectations, big arm. I mean, I'll talk to his scout today.

326
00:24:07.480 --> 00:24:11.400
He goes he's a big arm,
heavy fastball. Hopefully the Jitners won't get

327
00:24:11.400 --> 00:24:14.119
to him because sometimes there could be
a little friends around the around the zone.

328
00:24:14.160 --> 00:24:18.079
But boy, I mean, you
cannot expect or see something better than

329
00:24:18.160 --> 00:24:22.759
Dodger Stadium, Pact Giants Mecair debut. It should be exciting whenever it's Dodgers

330
00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:27.440
Giants. It's electric here at Dodgers
Stadium. What are some of your fondest

331
00:24:27.519 --> 00:24:33.599
memories of this rivalry? Tommy Lasorda
yelling at the other dugout, Charlie Metro

332
00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:38.640
in the fights, Yeah, Reggie
Smith and Pedro Guerrero and all those things

333
00:24:38.720 --> 00:24:42.640
that went along. And obviously on
top of all of that is a young

334
00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:48.319
Barry Bonds who used to wait for
my dad for my dad was a coach

335
00:24:48.839 --> 00:24:52.759
for the Dodgers to get to San
Francisco, because he would look for my

336
00:24:52.839 --> 00:24:56.559
dad to bring him into the Dodger
Clubhouse to meet the players. Really,

337
00:24:56.720 --> 00:24:59.759
Barry Bonds as a kid, Ye, as a kid, he waited for

338
00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:03.119
Papa Mota to take him into the
Dary Clubhouse to meet all the stars.

339
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:07.400
And something I'll always remember too,
obviously, when I was in the clubhouse

340
00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:11.759
as a youngster too, I got
to feel a different feel for the rivalry

341
00:25:11.839 --> 00:25:17.319
from like Dusty and Jaeger in Garvey
and Say and it was like it was

342
00:25:17.400 --> 00:25:19.480
not fun to hear them talk about
the Giants. Man it was like,

343
00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:22.480
Wow, it's that series. They
took that series. Man. Let me

344
00:25:22.519 --> 00:25:26.160
tell you that when the lost with
the Giants, it was a big deal.

345
00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:29.640
Tommy was not happy at all.
Yeah, it was not another series

346
00:25:29.720 --> 00:25:34.640
against let's say the Montreal expos No, and then on top of the painful

347
00:25:34.680 --> 00:25:38.759
ones, Joe Morgan against Terry Force. Yeah, oh my god. You

348
00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:41.359
know, I asked Rick Monday where
where he was. He said, I

349
00:25:41.400 --> 00:25:45.559
had a great view. It went
right over my hands. He's right,

350
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:48.440
he's right. But over the years, it has been great to see the

351
00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:52.960
fans get together and obviously, you
know the respect that that's both teams have

352
00:25:52.240 --> 00:25:56.079
shown in their championships and the history
back in New York head translator quite nicely

353
00:25:56.119 --> 00:26:00.079
here to the West Coast show.
Hey Otani has gotten his first taste of

354
00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:04.319
Dodgers Giants being a part of it
for the first time this year. It

355
00:26:04.440 --> 00:26:08.240
feels like people are still buzzing over
the home run that he hit yesterday in

356
00:26:08.279 --> 00:26:11.599
the fifth inning. I mean,
who wouldn't be considering that we're all finding

357
00:26:11.640 --> 00:26:15.640
out like where did the ball land? And I heard all your questions to

358
00:26:15.759 --> 00:26:18.079
by the way, good job asking
people, where were you right shoulder?

359
00:26:18.160 --> 00:26:21.680
Let show it so exactly where were
you? And the ball kept rolling into

360
00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:23.880
the plaza. But it feels like
they had no idea the ball was just

361
00:26:25.160 --> 00:26:27.519
it was hit too hard. Yeah, exactly. But I think for Shohey

362
00:26:27.559 --> 00:26:30.640
too, I remember the one he
hit in San Francisco, oh close to

363
00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:33.480
the cod. It's one that I
know he's gonna remember for a long time.

364
00:26:33.920 --> 00:26:37.839
Jose Mode is joining us just in
front of first pitch between the Dodgers

365
00:26:37.880 --> 00:26:41.680
and Giants. He'll be on the
call tonight with Steven Nelson. Jose Miguel

366
00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:48.440
Rojas not in the Dodgers starting lineup
after leaving yesterday's game with right forearm tightness.

367
00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:52.400
How much concern should there be?
I'm not too concerned about that.

368
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:56.680
Mickey has expressional effect that with no
image in being taken, that is to

369
00:26:56.799 --> 00:27:00.599
me like a big relief, just
something that tightened up. Play it safe,

370
00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:03.640
and Miggie was telling me, I
want to make sure that I don't

371
00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:06.160
get this worse, because when he
throws out, he's putting a lot into

372
00:27:06.200 --> 00:27:07.319
his arm from the short stop.
Even when he makes, you know,

373
00:27:07.440 --> 00:27:11.039
throws like from on second base,
he's got to put some zip on it.

374
00:27:11.119 --> 00:27:14.519
And I think smartiny enough knowing that
there's still some games left. There's

375
00:27:14.559 --> 00:27:17.680
nothing to rush right now just to
get himself right. But MIGGI is a

376
00:27:17.720 --> 00:27:19.599
guy who's gonna take grace one thing
something he comes back. I'm not worried

377
00:27:19.599 --> 00:27:22.599
about it at all. You know, yesterday before the game, we talked

378
00:27:22.640 --> 00:27:27.000
about the Dodgers not being satisfied with
just winning the series. Do you feel

379
00:27:27.079 --> 00:27:30.799
like this can turn into a long
winning streak. I feel it because now

380
00:27:32.200 --> 00:27:36.680
you have pitching going on that perhaps
you were not expecting to come out of

381
00:27:36.720 --> 00:27:37.720
the gates like this after the All
Star break. I mean, it was

382
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:41.480
painful to see what happened leading into
the break, but now you have that

383
00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:47.160
momentum that one's gonna carry tonight from
the youngster, hopefully we'll see the same

384
00:27:47.240 --> 00:27:48.960
thing. Just keep you in the
game because the offense is rolling right now.

385
00:27:49.480 --> 00:27:55.880
He wants to see the continuity and
that impulse and the momentum carry over

386
00:27:55.960 --> 00:27:59.359
because the ambassa are getting better and
their hands are full tonight, we know

387
00:27:59.440 --> 00:28:03.240
against Blake Smell, but nonetheless the
feed worm down a little bit more.

388
00:28:03.640 --> 00:28:07.079
If you take the Trek schoobl type
of mentality, go out there and know

389
00:28:07.200 --> 00:28:08.759
that you get the up booping and
beat him. All right, Jose,

390
00:28:10.000 --> 00:28:11.720
We'll check in with you a little
bit later. Jose. On the call

391
00:28:11.799 --> 00:28:17.680
tonight with Steven Nelson. The stars
are out, Brad Paisley, William Shatner,

392
00:28:17.799 --> 00:28:22.200
Andre Ethier all in the house tonight
for Dodgers Giants. We'll send it

393
00:28:22.240 --> 00:28:23.000
back to you in the studio.

Mota. They'll have the keys to

399
00:28:41.599 --> 00:28:45.640
up next we go high and tight
with one of the superstars that Dave just

400
00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:51.440
referenced, Andre Ethier. That is
next Dodgers Giants, first pitch of seven

401
00:28:51.440 --> 00:28:57.559
to ten. I'm Tim Kasis,
Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network. This is

402
00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:07.319
Morongo Cassina Dodgers Hunting Game on your
home for LA Dodgers Baseball, Dodgers and

403
00:29:07.440 --> 00:29:11.240
Giants River, Ryan Blake Snell,
The bitching manchip start of a four game

404
00:29:11.440 --> 00:29:15.720
series Dodgers Baseball is presented by Children's
Hospital Los Angeles. When you need the

00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:18.640
very best care for your child,
but at Children's Hospital La Rake number one

right doctor at c HLA dot org.

407
00:29:25.079 --> 00:29:30.599
David and now what will likely be
vast fielding insults from a Dodger player.

408
00:29:30.720 --> 00:29:34.240
It's an engagement of endearment. This
this high and tight. Well, it's

409
00:29:34.240 --> 00:29:40.279
a great day at Dodgers Stadium,
Dodger Royalty back here and surprisingly not against

410
00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:45.079
the San Francisco Giants. Where's Mattcain
when he wants them? That's the one

411
00:29:45.119 --> 00:29:48.359
and only. Andre Ethier. Thanks
a lot for the time and great to

412
00:29:48.400 --> 00:29:52.559
see your whole family out here.
Yeah, appreciate it. No fitting game

413
00:29:52.640 --> 00:29:56.519
for our first game of the twenty
four season, then a Dodger Giants game.

414
00:29:56.599 --> 00:30:00.319
So found our way up here from
and hanging down in the South coast

415
00:30:00.400 --> 00:30:03.799
Laguna area, and found our way
up here today for this, uh you

416
00:30:03.839 --> 00:30:07.440
know, first game of the series. Dude, Does Dodgers Giants still get

417
00:30:07.519 --> 00:30:11.880
you going the way it used to
when you played? Uh? Yeah,

418
00:30:11.920 --> 00:30:15.079
I think it does. I think
it. Ebbs and flows right, like

419
00:30:15.839 --> 00:30:18.440
they obviously are having a little bit
of a down year and and I guess

420
00:30:18.480 --> 00:30:25.240
at downtime last couple of years,
and I guess the the you know,

421
00:30:25.319 --> 00:30:27.839
the intestinas rubs off a little bit
more, especially when you know this team's

422
00:30:27.839 --> 00:30:32.240
playing so well coming into it for
uh, you know, multiple seasons,

423
00:30:32.279 --> 00:30:34.200
multiple years in a row against them. But it still means a lot,

424
00:30:34.359 --> 00:30:37.759
obviously, you know, for the
both cities, both fan bases, and

425
00:30:37.880 --> 00:30:40.000
it's uh, you know, exciting
to see. Like you said, he

426
00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:42.200
brings up old memories. We're just
talking about, uh, Tim Linzacome and

427
00:30:42.599 --> 00:30:45.799
those guys with a couple buddies of
mine the last couple of weeks, about

428
00:30:45.799 --> 00:30:48.880
how good of pitchers those guys were
and those teams those Giants have, and

429
00:30:51.119 --> 00:30:52.599
you know, there's a lot of
history between these two ball clubs. Whenever

430
00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:57.319
I think Dodgers giants, Andre Ethier
and Matt Caain come to mind. You

431
00:30:57.519 --> 00:31:02.319
know that you did pretty well against
Kane when you guys faced off. What

432
00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:06.960
is it about certain pictures and especially
on teams that are wearing that orange and

433
00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:08.359
black. Yeah, I don't know, that's a weird thing, right,

434
00:31:11.640 --> 00:31:15.319
You can face a guy and I
think I forgot the guy who was the

435
00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:18.400
either these are either Marquis or someone
else who I felt like I struggled really

436
00:31:18.480 --> 00:31:22.400
badly against. But then there's guys
like li'sa come, I hit well,

437
00:31:22.680 --> 00:31:26.079
you know, guys who were dominant
pictures. I hit well. And you

438
00:31:26.240 --> 00:31:27.799
see a guy like Matt Cain and
for some reason, it was just that

439
00:31:27.920 --> 00:31:32.359
one person. It didn't matter what
he threw, you were able to get

440
00:31:32.440 --> 00:31:33.920
hits off. And I told him, I said, I think it was

441
00:31:33.960 --> 00:31:36.599
like towards the end of our career
when I had, you know, all

442
00:31:36.680 --> 00:31:40.119
these at bats, sixty seventy at
bats against them, and you know everyone

443
00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:41.799
had been making a big thing about
it, you know about us face and

444
00:31:41.880 --> 00:31:47.400
you get each other for maybe what
might be the last time ever, you

445
00:31:47.480 --> 00:31:49.640
know, after all these years.
And I remember one of that bats in

446
00:31:49.759 --> 00:31:53.880
that game. He threw a really
good cutter in off my fists. I

447
00:31:55.359 --> 00:31:59.559
hit it, jam shot. It
barely landed over his head in the endfield

448
00:31:59.680 --> 00:32:02.680
grass between second and the pitcher for
a base hit. And I you know,

449
00:32:02.759 --> 00:32:06.839
that pretty sums up that pretty much
sums up that whole uh you know,

450
00:32:07.119 --> 00:32:08.279
matchup all those years. I was
gonna get a hit no matter what

451
00:32:08.359 --> 00:32:12.039
he threw in the quality of pitch, it was gonna work out to be

452
00:32:12.119 --> 00:32:15.000
a hit for me. And I
remember just shaking his head at me and

453
00:32:15.079 --> 00:32:17.640
laughing, because, uh, you
know, it doesn't matter off the barrel,

454
00:32:17.680 --> 00:32:20.640
off the face, I'll still getting
hits off of him. You're a

455
00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:22.359
great student of the game. You
know the history of the game, and

456
00:32:22.519 --> 00:32:28.519
certainly you played your entire major league
career wearing a Dodger uniform. When did

457
00:32:28.640 --> 00:32:32.480
you start to realize how serious it
was as far as a rivalry between the

458
00:32:32.559 --> 00:32:37.839
Dodgers and Giants. It's day one
day that first time you go up there

459
00:32:37.039 --> 00:32:39.319
the first time. You know,
I didn't know anything about it. You

460
00:32:39.359 --> 00:32:45.359
didn't understand the intensity of it.
First time you probably go in there as

461
00:32:45.480 --> 00:32:49.039
a player, you're just like,
wow, you know, these fans really

462
00:32:49.160 --> 00:32:52.960
do not like the Dodgers. They
really do not the Dodger players. And

463
00:32:52.079 --> 00:32:57.400
we know some of the fun uh
you know, shenanigans that were going on

464
00:32:57.440 --> 00:33:01.680
in the stadiums, you know,
with the fans and interactions with him when

465
00:33:01.759 --> 00:33:06.480
those series were going on. So
yeah, I learned from day one that

466
00:33:06.799 --> 00:33:09.359
it means a little bit more.
It doesn't matter whether it's April or whether

467
00:33:09.359 --> 00:33:12.720
it's September and both teams are out
of the playoffs, it still means a

468
00:33:12.759 --> 00:33:16.759
lot andre ethier before you go and
spend more time with the family. Yesterday

469
00:33:16.839 --> 00:33:21.960
Show, Heo Tani hit a home
run four hundred and seventy three feet to

470
00:33:22.079 --> 00:33:25.079
the top of the left field pavilion. Have you ever seen a lefty hit

471
00:33:25.160 --> 00:33:28.920
it that far? No, And
I tried. I tried many times the

472
00:33:29.000 --> 00:33:30.680
batting practice, many times in the
game. I think the batting practice as

473
00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:36.880
closest I ever got was probably where
that starluck sign is, and I probably

474
00:33:36.960 --> 00:33:38.440
hit the starluck sign. I don't
know what was there at the time,

475
00:33:39.000 --> 00:33:43.519
but it would probably hit right around
there. But I mean, you know,

476
00:33:43.599 --> 00:33:46.480
we're standing here looking and that's a
whole nother two signs, so probably

477
00:33:46.559 --> 00:33:52.039
what one one hundred and twenty feet
farther to the center, which I don't

478
00:33:52.039 --> 00:33:54.519
know what that adds on to it. And to do it in a game

479
00:33:54.599 --> 00:33:59.599
off a pitcher, it's pretty impressive. And yeah, I mean everything he

480
00:33:59.680 --> 00:34:02.640
does is uh, you don't you
like? Is this it? And then

481
00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:06.319
he does something else every time,
And I think that's that's what the most

482
00:34:06.319 --> 00:34:09.800
impressive thing about show is And he's
gonna come back and pitch. You always

483
00:34:09.840 --> 00:34:15.400
heard that question. Let's just be
happy. Let's be happy for what we're

484
00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:17.760
seeing right now, just on the
offensive side, because it's pretty unbelievable.

485
00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:22.719
And you just don't think he could
come back and and and keep up the

486
00:34:22.760 --> 00:34:24.280
pace or do anything, you know, do the way he's doing. And

487
00:34:24.400 --> 00:34:28.320
he just keeps finding a way to
do it. And uh, it's it's

488
00:34:28.360 --> 00:34:30.880
hard not to admire it from a
uh, you know, from a former

489
00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:32.960
player side. And I know fans
are in awe when every time they ask

490
00:34:34.039 --> 00:34:36.639
me, that's one of the first
things fans ask me is you know,

491
00:34:36.800 --> 00:34:38.840
what do you think about Showy?
And I I tell him I'm just as

492
00:34:38.880 --> 00:34:43.119
in a as you guys are.
And uh, it's impressive to see.

493
00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:45.960
And I can't believe this team gets
to have him, that you know this

494
00:34:45.079 --> 00:34:47.800
long they're gonna get to have him. It's awesome to hear that from a

495
00:34:47.880 --> 00:34:52.719
former player that spent his entire career
at Dodger Stadium in a big way to

496
00:34:52.480 --> 00:34:57.679
be just as much in awe of
Otani as we are love having you back

497
00:34:57.719 --> 00:35:00.000
here. You got that summer glow
tan to just like you did when you

498
00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:04.559
played out here. Now, you
enjoy the family. You look relaxed.

499
00:35:04.920 --> 00:35:07.119
The kids say that they're keeping you
under control at home, so that's a

500
00:35:07.159 --> 00:35:10.119
good thing. Yeah, I'm not
afraid of the sun like you. I

501
00:35:10.199 --> 00:35:15.480
went zero SPF for the last four
days, so I'm not afraid to go

502
00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:21.320
zero SPF on this sun here.
So I soaked it up, drew every

503
00:35:21.400 --> 00:35:24.400
last way I could into southern California
sun of my time at least right now,

504
00:35:25.480 --> 00:35:29.920
and look forward to being back here
at the stadium for the second half.

505
00:35:30.199 --> 00:35:34.599
There he is forever Dodger Andre Ethier. We'll send it back to you

506
00:35:34.679 --> 00:35:36.519

right, thanks a lot of guys.

The Ragning Cy Young Award winner signed a

520
00:36:35.400 --> 00:36:37.679
two year deal with the Giants in
late spring, making his ninth start.

521
00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:42.280
He's been nearly untouchable since his return
from a left groin injury. Over two

522
00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:45.119
starts, he's allowed just two hits
and struck out eleven and twelve shutout innings

523
00:36:45.119 --> 00:36:49.840
against the Twins and the Blue Jays. Opponents are hitting under one hundred against

524
00:36:49.840 --> 00:36:52.760
his curveball with nineteen strikeouts this year. He is two and two at the

525

twenty one. Traded at the Dodgers before

528
00:37:02.760 --> 00:37:07.239
spring training in twenty twenty two and
the Matt Beaty deal Dodgers made him a

529
00:37:07.280 --> 00:37:08.840
pitcher only he was a two way
player. Pitched an A ball in twenty

530
00:37:08.880 --> 00:37:12.800

A last year. Slow played during spring

531
00:37:12.920 --> 00:37:15.119
training this year. He has made
only twenty four and a half innings pitched

532
00:37:15.159 --> 00:37:20.679
at all levels that he's been in
this twenty twenty four seasons, so he

533
00:37:20.840 --> 00:37:23.039

Jose Mote. Guys, thanks TC. Back here with Hossei Mota and

544
00:38:12.159 --> 00:38:15.760
a big pitching matchup tonight. You
have Blake Snell, the reigning Cy Young

545
00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:21.119
Award winner who has seemed to have
found his form of late for the Giants.

546
00:38:21.599 --> 00:38:22.679
We'll get to him in a little
bit. We can't bury the lead.

547
00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:25.880
River Ryan, one of the top
prospects in the organization, get in

548
00:38:25.920 --> 00:38:29.840
the call. He's making his big
league debut. Will you heard? The

549
00:38:29.960 --> 00:38:35.039
rumors are finally here for real?
Now River Ryan. I immediately a scowl

550
00:38:35.119 --> 00:38:37.840
that saw him. He goes think
about a Tim Belcher back in this day,

551
00:38:37.440 --> 00:38:44.000
Tim big body, ninety five to
ninety eight control with two breaking balls

552
00:38:44.039 --> 00:38:46.519
and I'm well. Also means that
he's gonna get after people out. I

553
00:38:46.559 --> 00:38:50.800
think there's a report on him.
Is the fact that the River Ryan,

554
00:38:50.840 --> 00:38:52.760
who came on a trade from the
patres By the way for Matt Baby is

555
00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:57.039
a guy that's going to be out
there and attacking the zone. Keep in

556
00:38:57.119 --> 00:39:00.880
mind, now he started the season
with his shoulder issue fatigue coming out of

557
00:39:00.920 --> 00:39:02.840
spring training, has not pitched,
you know, did not pitch for a

558
00:39:02.880 --> 00:39:07.159
while until early June. But what
everybody raided about was the fact that this

559
00:39:07.280 --> 00:39:08.920
guy had knows how to go out
there and flood his own with all three

560
00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:13.960
pitches. A meteoric rise through the
system. Because when you figure when the

561
00:39:14.039 --> 00:39:16.280
Dodgers acquired him back in March of
twenty two, he was a two way

562
00:39:16.360 --> 00:39:22.519
player. He'd only played twelve professional
games and they were all as a hitter,

563
00:39:22.280 --> 00:39:27.519
no pitching for the Padres organization.
The Dodgers acquirements say you're not hitting

564
00:39:27.519 --> 00:39:30.239
anymore, you're only a pitcher.
And you jump to now two years and

565
00:39:30.400 --> 00:39:36.880
change later, after just refocusing his
professional life onto one thing, the fact

566
00:39:36.880 --> 00:39:38.800
that he is here, I think
that's a testament to one the stuff which

567
00:39:38.840 --> 00:39:43.079
you know is there, but also
to the athleticism. That is the word

568
00:39:43.159 --> 00:39:46.079
that you hear most often attached to
River Ryan, how athletic he is exactly.

569
00:39:46.159 --> 00:39:49.840
So from there he just assire for
well, there's not a whole lot

570
00:39:50.079 --> 00:39:52.079
work on that shoulder, right,
so he's kind of a rusted guy for

571
00:39:52.199 --> 00:39:55.519
his career where he's at right now. In addition to that is the fact

572
00:39:55.559 --> 00:39:59.719
that in the minor leagues he has
never pitched more than five innings or gone

573
00:39:59.719 --> 00:40:01.840
over's seventy six pitches. So keep
that in mind, and hopefully today with

574
00:40:01.920 --> 00:40:05.320
the jitters and everything that goes along, will make your debut. So'll be

575
00:40:05.480 --> 00:40:07.519
very exciting for Dodger fans to see
this. I mean, this is a

576
00:40:07.559 --> 00:40:10.880
pipeline man that you work for to
say, here's all the pieces we have,

577
00:40:12.239 --> 00:40:14.920
but we're not afraid to go out
there and bring the Bobby Millers and

578
00:40:15.000 --> 00:40:17.639
the Emmet Chuns last year and now
we see obviously we're Bleuski and this young

579
00:40:17.719 --> 00:40:22.280
guy here tonight, River Ryan,
the Dodgers' number four prospect, number two

580
00:40:22.639 --> 00:40:27.320
ranked pitcher according to mob Pipeline.
And you talk about major league debuts for

581
00:40:27.400 --> 00:40:30.679
a pitcher against the Giants, you
think about Ross Stripling, you think about

582
00:40:30.719 --> 00:40:35.280
Emmettchian. There are some good vibes
when it comes to a Dodger debut against

583
00:40:35.320 --> 00:40:38.480
the rival Giants. We hope River
Ryan can experience those same things tonight here

584
00:40:38.519 --> 00:40:42.760
at Dodgers Stadium. First pitch,
fast approaching, Dodgers and the Giants,

585
00:40:43.000 --> 00:40:45.119
Game one of four. All right, first pitch when we come back.

586
00:40:45.199 --> 00:40:50.039
Dodgers and Giants. Enjoy it,
everybody. I'm Tim Kase's been Wrongo Casino,
