David Vass goes 15 00:01:02.880 --> 00:01:06.799 one on one with Miguel Rojas. We've got your Dodgers magical moment. We're 16 00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:10.280 gonna hear from Jason Hayward, who's gone on the injured list with a knee 17 00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:11.640 injury. In just a few minutes. We'll check in with Rick Monday and 18 00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:15.640 Tim Neffett out the Galvin Motors Broadcast booth. Well, last night, the 19 00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:22.439 Dodger Killer returned as the Dodgers offense when Mia Landing that got the start last 20 00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:26.200 night, the young right hander got into trouble early first inning. Jock Peterson, 21 00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:29.480 former Dodger, a sol a home run to give the Diamondbacks a quick 22 00:01:29.519 --> 00:01:32.920 one nothing lead. The very next batter, Christian Walker, the man who 23 00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:36.879 has been tormenting the Dodgers, did it again. A one to two pitch, 24 00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:41.719 Walker swings in torches a ball left center field, carrying way out of 25 00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:48.680 here. Christian Walker cannot be stopped. That is his fourth home run of 26 00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:53.159 the series. He is homered in five straight games here at Dodgers Stadium. 27 00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:57.840 He makes it back to back jacks for the d Backs and the Dodgers now 28 00:01:57.879 --> 00:02:01.799 trailed two to nothing. Twenty first home run of the season for Christian Walker 29 00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:07.159 is eighteenth against the Dodgers and forty two career games at Dodgers Stadium. Diamondbacks 30 00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:10.000 with a two to nothing late then the third Are you kidding me? The 31 00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:15.560 Dodger Killer was at it again? Slider change up to start Walker here in 32 00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:20.240 the third, one ball, one strike Peterson right next to Freddie Freeman's right 33 00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:24.000 hip. That is head hard, left field, deep, heading toward the 34 00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:30.879 corner. It's a fair ball and another home run Christian Walker. I am 35 00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:36.520 without words, he too. Second home run of the game for Christian Walker 36 00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:39.680 is nineteenth of his career at Dodgers Stadium. As the Diamondbacks are up four 37 00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:43.000 to nothing. That's the top tier play of the game, sponsored by Arco 38 00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:46.439 Quality top tier gas for less. Christian Walker as homeward in five consecutive games 39 00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:52.199 at Dodger Stadium and has gone deep nine times this year against the Dodgers in 40 00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:55.759 all. In the fourth, the Dodgers' offense finally broke through basis loaded for 41 00:02:55.840 --> 00:03:00.479 Key k Hernetti's He grinded out but run scored. Next batterusin Barnes gallons one 42 00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:07.000 oer pitch barn Swings flare center field, Marte gold back can catch it. 43 00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:14.280 Fergus scores Taylor behind him, a two run single for Rouston Barns and it's 44 00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:19.039 a one one game. Hey, two run single for Barnesy. Dodgers down 45 00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:22.719 only four to three. Finally some life, but it didn't last long. 46 00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:25.120 Arizona answer back with the run of the fifth and exploded like a firework of 47 00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:30.159 four runs in the ninth inning. Diamondbacks beat the Dodgers last night nine to 48 00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:32.599 three. They take two to three at Dodger Stadium. Christian Walker, Thank 49 00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:37.120 goodness, this guy's getting out of town. Five home runs, nine Ribbies 50 00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:39.919 in the series. Tonight, a new game, a new series, thankfully, 51 00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:45.439 the Milwaukee Brewers in town. Dodgers hoping for some fireworks tonight on this 52 00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:49.199 fifth of July. Tyler Glass now on the mount of the series opener, 53 00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:52.159 first pitch coming up at seven ten and with more we head out to the 54 00:03:52.199 --> 00:03:55.159 Gallpin Motors broadcast booth as we say hello to Rick Monday and Tim Nevertt. 55 00:03:55.159 --> 00:04:00.360 Guys, Thank you very much. Tim. Really nice night at Dodgers dum 56 00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:02.759 for a game one of those three game weekend series against two of the division 57 00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:08.319 leaders in the National League. The Brewers come in fifty two and thirty six. 58 00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:13.240 They're six game leaders over the Cardinals in the Central. They've won seven 59 00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:16.120 of the last ten ball games. The Dodgers, now down to six and 60 00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:20.879 a half over the Padres. Fifty three and thirty five, have lost back 61 00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:25.079 to back games six and four in their last ten, but they have won 62 00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:29.839 thirteen of their last seventeen against the Brewers, outscoring him by fifty five runs 63 00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:34.399 during that stretch. As well, the Brewers have lost eleven of their last 64 00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:40.319 twelve at Dodgers Stadium. Dodgers looking to get hot here as the weekend is 65 00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:43.879 upon us and we get ready to go out on our road trip that'll feature 66 00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:47.120 Philadelphia and Detroit right before the All Star break. But Moll Tyler glasnow on 67 00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:50.839 the hill looking to get it done against Aaron Savali. Savally making his Brewers 68 00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:57.560 debut tonight. Yeah, and Savally is the sixteenth different starting pitcher that has 69 00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:01.399 towed the mound for the Milwaukee Brewers, the first year manager Pat Murphy. 70 00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:04.000 Now, a lot of people are saying, well, wait a minute, 71 00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:09.160 Greg Council goes to Chicago with the Cubs. What about the Brewers? What 72 00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:12.399 are they gonna do with managers? And Pat Murphy who used to also be 73 00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:15.079 the coach at Arizona State, had to get that plug in there by the 74 00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:18.199 way. But for Murph has the team in first place, and Dave Roberts, 75 00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:20.879 talking about the Brewers a little earlier today, said, hey, look 76 00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:24.839 here's the ball club that first of all, they put the ball into play. 77 00:05:25.160 --> 00:05:28.279 They will bunt, they'll steal bases, and I mean they will steal 78 00:05:28.319 --> 00:05:30.800 bases if you take your eye off of them. They play very good defense, 79 00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:34.000 and also their bullpen is able to close some games out. Yeah, 80 00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:38.800 the running game is certainly something the Dodgers need to watch because if they don't, 81 00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:42.920 they will swipe bag after bag. One hundred and twenty stolen bases for 82 00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:46.720 the Brewers. That's the second most and major League Baseball, behind only the 83 00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:48.759 Cincinnati Reds one hundred and twenty six. Yeah, the Dodgers have to do 84 00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:53.319 a better job themselves. We can talk about the Brewers all we want, 85 00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:57.439 But for the Dodgers the last four games, they've lost three of the four, 86 00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:00.839 they've been out hit fifty four to two. They had been out scored 87 00:06:00.839 --> 00:06:06.199 in those four games thirty six to seventeen. They've not had as many opportunities 88 00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:12.000 with runners in scoring position, and the starting pitchers have not gone very long 89 00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:15.600 indeed, and they need to change all of those categories in no better time 90 00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:17.959 than do it tonight. A couple of notes things we observe today at the 91 00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:23.000 ballpark. Miguel Vargas moving in from the outfield. Watched him work out at 92 00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:27.079 third base. Told a few weeks ago that wasn't in the plans max months. 93 00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:30.240 He taking a long time to get healthy. Now that appears to be 94 00:06:30.279 --> 00:06:31.959 in the plans. Yeah, it is in the plans because it's opened up 95 00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:38.519 opportunities. Jason Hayward injured in the ball game. He's going on the injured 96 00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:43.240 list, and James Outman gets recalled. Outman not in the starting lineup tonight, 97 00:06:43.279 --> 00:06:46.160 but it's going to be interesting now the next few games exactly what Dave 98 00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:50.800 Roberts does with the lineup, depending upon right handed pitcher going against him or 99 00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:55.000 a lefty. So they got Outman on the bench, Bigio on the bench 100 00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:59.600 to left handers. Austin Barnes backup catcher. Expect to see him probably on 101 00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:02.720 Sunday. And on Sunday, we don't know who's gonna pitch yet, We're 102 00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:06.000 gonna find out in the next day or so. That's still a hole. 103 00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:10.480 Right now, the Dodgers seem to be thin as far as starting pitching goes. 104 00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:12.959 Yeah, starting pitcher, and then you look overall. The Dodgers have 105 00:07:13.079 --> 00:07:16.279 used twenty eight different pitchers so far this season. And we are not to 106 00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:19.199 the All Star break yet. Yes, we're past the halfway mark. This 107 00:07:19.240 --> 00:07:24.560 is game number eighty nine for Glass. Now he's coming off a couple of 108 00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:28.439 less than stellar games. I would expect the thirty year old six foot eight 109 00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:30.199 right and hated to come out with a little vengeance here tonight and pick up 110 00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:34.439 ninth victory of the season and get shoe Hey Otani a birthday gift with a 111 00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:39.519 win tonight. Show Hey, turning thirty today. And it didn't take you 112 00:07:39.639 --> 00:07:43.560 very long to get the ASU plug in there? No it didn't opening segment, 113 00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:45.920 isn't it all? It didn't take you long sooner than I thought. 114 00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:49.120 All right, we're counting it down first pitch, Brewers and Dodgers Game one 115 00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:51.759 of three, Jim, all right, as we counting down to first pitch, 116 00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:57.399 Dodger fans, get your game day meal on a Shaky's Pizza parlor. 117 00:07:57.399 --> 00:08:01.040 What are your Shaky's Pizza Chicken and Mojo's right now at Shaky's dot com. 118 00:08:01.040 --> 00:08:05.800 We're off and running here on this Friday edition of Dodgers on Deck. Coming 119 00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:09.879 up, we'll hear from the manager Dave Roberts. We'll check in with David 120 00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:11.879 Vest of course throughout their show, he'll go one on one with mcguil. 121 00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:16.240 Rojas will break down this pitching matchup a little bit more. But up next, 122 00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:20.480 you're Tani rewind An. We'll hear from Jason Hayward himself going on the 123 00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:22.759 injury list with the knee injury. If it leads up to Dodgers and Brewers 124 00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:26.560 first pitch at seven ten, Thanks for being with us. I'm Tim Kats's 125 00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:35.279 Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network, its Lorongo Casino Dodgers on Dodgers on Deck. 126 00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:41.360 Y'all on the official home of LA Dodgers Baseball. It's the Dodgers and Brewers, 127 00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:43.759 the start of a three game weekend set. Tyler Glass now Aaron Savali 128 00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:50.039 is the pitching matchup. First pitch set for seven ten. This is the 129 00:08:50.159 --> 00:08:56.120 Otani Rewhy you'rs Gallon's all one pitch show. Hey going for third? The 130 00:08:56.159 --> 00:09:05.039 throw from ma Reno to tag at third not in time. After the ball 131 00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:11.759 thrown from Gallant, Otani slides in safely, another stolen base for show Hayes, 132 00:09:11.799 --> 00:09:16.919 now up to seventeen on the year. Show Hey Otani swipes third last 133 00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:20.720 night, Unfortunately at the plate goes oh for three with three strikeouts, got 134 00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:22.720 on bass via walk. You heard the stolen base over to third, but 135 00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:28.120 he would get stranded to a third as the Dodgers last night had two of 136 00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:33.159 their top three hitters go combined zero for seven with six strikeouts. The Sotani 137 00:09:33.200 --> 00:09:35.799 Rewind brought to you by eto inns Oyocha, Japan's number one green tea and 138 00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:39.840 the tea that show Heyo Tani loves and drinks Availabi, a local diso stores 139 00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:45.799 Amazon at Etoin dot com. That's it o e n dot Com. Last 140 00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:50.039 night, Miguel Vargas came in as a replacement for Jason Hayward. Saw Taska 141 00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:52.679 Hernandez moved from leftfield over to right field and placed at Jason Hayward, who 142 00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:56.200 had won at bat last night but had to leave the game with a knee 143 00:09:56.240 --> 00:10:01.080 injury and officially Jason Hayward has been place on the injured list with a left 144 00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:05.120 knee bone bruise, so hopefully that's the extent of it. He can come 145 00:10:05.159 --> 00:10:09.559 back quickly. But after the game last night, talked about the knee and 146 00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:13.879 most importantly talked about the team struggles just just kind of as a team, 147 00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:16.120 that baseball's kind of a long season. Just how do you feel that you 148 00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:20.639 guys have been playing carefull in last couple of weeks. I feel like we 149 00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:24.440 were playing the season. I will say, you know, I always do 150 00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:28.080 my best to keep it real. There have been times baseball wise, like 151 00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:33.759 we could probably make a better baseball player, better baseball decision. But that 152 00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:37.360 also comes from, you know, wanting to do so much and trying to 153 00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:41.039 get everything back in one player or two plays, and that's not for you 154 00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:45.639 know, you gotta want to compensate for things. That's a part of it. 155 00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:48.960 But you still have to go through these things throughout the regular season to 156 00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:52.759 figure out where you got to make adjustments and and also how to play through 157 00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.720 and but all in all, I think we've been doing a great job of 158 00:10:56.759 --> 00:11:01.440 playing through the things we've been dealing with in the group, and that's that's 159 00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:03.919 the name of the game. I happened to rub this storm, and I 160 00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:05.360 do still think you know, give another teams. We've been playing credit. 161 00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:11.080 They've been playing really good baseball, but we have shown how you're gonna have 162 00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:11.919 to fight back. You're gonna have to figure out way to do that. 163 00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:16.399 And where they's store. All right, there's Jason Hayward. He's gonna help 164 00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:20.200 from the sideline, going on the iel with the left knee bone bruise. 165 00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:22.919 The Dodgers dropped two at three to Arizona. Before that, they had dropped 166 00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:26.799 two of three in San Francisco to the Giants. So the Dodgers need to 167 00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:30.639 get back on track.

The Dodgers about an hour ago. 187 00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:01.639 Make it official. Making some roster moves. They recalled outfielder James Outman 188 00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:07.360 and right handed pitcher Gus Varlan.

He joins 191 00:13:16.519 --> 00:13:20.480 Mookie Bets on the IL, yoshinobu Ya Momoto, Walker Buehler, Michael Grove, 192 00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:22.799 Max Munsey who is starting to work his way back but won't come back 193 00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:26.360 until the office All Star Break, Clayton Kershaw who is throwing again, Joe 194 00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:31.320 Kelly who had a minor league rehab assignment in Rancho Koukamonga just a couple of 195 00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:35.240 days ago.

Ryan Brasier, Tony Gonslin does to 197 00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:43.120 may All on the sixty day IL. All right, let's head back out 198 00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:46.879 to Dodger Stadium as we check in with the Dodgers Gibber anything else questions for 199 00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:50.399 Dave? Dave, can you just describe Dave? Can you talk about the 200 00:13:50.440 --> 00:14:01.080 pressure in the dugouts with Dave Roberts MRI. It was it's a leftnee. 201 00:14:01.279 --> 00:14:09.120 He's left knee contusion kind of aligned with hyper extension, so meniscus ligament intact. 202 00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:13.600 So it's just kind of it should be a week to two weeks, 203 00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:18.720 but just to be safe, I l obviously we brought James. Uh so 204 00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:24.919 I think that we dodged the bullet with Jason James. You know what, 205 00:14:26.039 --> 00:14:31.960 he's been playing really well. I think, uh, you know, the 206 00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:35.480 average on base and slug is a little bit of some struggles versus left handed 207 00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:43.320 pitching, but verse right handed pitching, he's been fantastic. He's going to 208 00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:50.000 certainly play verse right, but there's going to be some right handers. I 209 00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:54.120 think as I look out that I'm going to give Vargas an opportunity as well 210 00:14:54.120 --> 00:15:00.000 in left field work between him last. When James is playing, he'll be 211 00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:03.120 playing center field. SR. Paul Hayes will be in there when he's when 212 00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:05.720 he's he'll be in there every day. Though, Skipper, when your team 213 00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:09.840 hits a little bit of a low, what's the most important thing for you 214 00:15:09.919 --> 00:15:13.679 and them to remember? I think the most important thing to remember is it's 215 00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:18.080 a long season. There's ebbs and flows of a major league season, and 216 00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:22.840 just make sure that the work is consistent. All right, there's Dave Roberts 217 00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:24.840 to have the dugout talking about the ebbs and flows of the season, the 218 00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:28.840 Dodgers right now, and a little bit of having lost two of three to 219 00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:31.759 San Francisco and just recently two of three to the Arizon Diamondbacks at home to 220 00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:35.720 start this homestand down the dugout brought to you by Service Titan. Dave Roberts 221 00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:39.480 is a tighten in his own right, and he's got a plan before his 222 00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:43.360 team hits the field. You need one for your growing contracting business too. 223 00:15:43.799 --> 00:15:48.200 Let's Service Titan help you implement it.

So we leave you up to first pitch, Dodgers and 226 00:15:54.639 --> 00:16:02.360 the Brewers and Tim Kases, Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network. This is Marongo 227 00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:08.240 Casino, Dodgers on Deck on your home for the Blue All Season Law. 228 00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:14.279 It's Dodgers and Brewers on this Friday night. Tyler Glass now on the mountain, 229 00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:18.879 start of a three game set. First bitch coming up at seventen joining 230 00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:22.799 Tim cats on Dodgers on deck. I accept everybody for who they are. 231 00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:30.039 This is Dodger insider David Basse. All right, David, Jason Hayward hurt 232 00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.360 knee injury, James Outman gets called up. What's the plan in right field? 233 00:16:33.399 --> 00:16:37.000 Now? Well, the Dodgers are going to play the matchup game in 234 00:16:37.039 --> 00:16:41.720 the outfield. Andy poe Has is going to be out there, but it's 235 00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:47.480 going to be some sort of combination of James Outman, Miguel Vargas, Andy 236 00:16:47.559 --> 00:16:52.279 pot Has, and I wouldn't be surprised to see Chris Taylor out there in 237 00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:56.240 certain games. So that's the way. Dave Roberts is going to mix and 238 00:16:56.360 --> 00:17:00.639 match until uh, the Dodgers get some of these guys back healthy or you 239 00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:03.799 know, I was thinking just now, Tim, how to word this. 240 00:17:03.359 --> 00:17:10.920 Obviously new players might be arriving on July thirtieth or before. Miguel Vargas he 241 00:17:11.039 --> 00:17:14.119 needs it, bet David, you had him on the pregame show just this 242 00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:18.920 last past series. I saw your social media some video of him earlier today. 243 00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:22.279 What's the plan for Miguel? Yeah, it sounds like the Dodgers are 244 00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:26.680 preparing Miguel Vargas to get more time at third base, especially with the injury 245 00:17:26.680 --> 00:17:30.839 to Max Munsey taking longer than expected. You know, when I talked to 246 00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:36.000 you the other day, Tim after Monthsy shared with me just how things were 247 00:17:36.039 --> 00:17:40.799 going. It sounded optimistic that Monsey was going to return shortly after the All 248 00:17:40.839 --> 00:17:44.440 Star break. I did not see him today. I saw him a little 249 00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:49.559 bit yesterday. So Dave Roberts is proceeding as if they are not getting Max 250 00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:56.960 Munsey back anytime soon. And that's the thought process behind having Miguel Vargas starting 251 00:17:56.000 --> 00:18:02.160 to take round balls again at third base. That's where the Dodgers had Vargas 252 00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:04.839 originally as he was coming up in the organization. Then they moved in the 253 00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:08.880 first base, then they had him take a fly balls and left field, 254 00:18:08.880 --> 00:18:12.759 and as you know, last year he was the Dodgers starting second baseman. 255 00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:18.160 So that's a lot for a young guy to go back to on the fly. 256 00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:22.880 But Miguel Vargas, he had a different vibe about him today because he 257 00:18:23.079 --> 00:18:26.200 knows he's going to get at bats, and he has told me from the 258 00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:30.880 get go he does not care where he plays as long as he gets four 259 00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:36.039 at bats a game. Dama's driven by your Southern California Ford dealers for great 260 00:18:36.079 --> 00:18:40.319 offers on a Ford Bronco Sport or any Ford model. During fourth of July, 261 00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:42.680 Celiphon, all right, David, James out We we mentioned he is 262 00:18:42.799 --> 00:18:48.359 back, recalled from Triple A Oklahoma City. He struggled before being sent down 263 00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:51.039 to Triple A. In thirty eight games there, David, he had a 264 00:18:51.079 --> 00:18:53.200 high ops near one thousand. He had eight doubles, he had nine home 265 00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:57.400 runs, twenty one ribies. Seemed like offensively he got back into a groove. 266 00:18:59.000 --> 00:19:02.279 Yeah, he's cooled off or recently he got off to a hot start. 267 00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:06.720 But it says a lot about James Outman that he did not sulk at 268 00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:11.799 Triple A and really wallow and being sent down. Instead, he tried to 269 00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:15.359 put in work to try to find his way back here. And Dave Roberts 270 00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:18.599 said from the get go, even when Outman was red hot at Oklahoma City, 271 00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:22.160 he was not going to be called up just to play sparingly. It 272 00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:26.839 was going to take an injury to somebody to get Outman regular at bats before 273 00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:30.920 they called him up. So, unfortunately for the Dodgers, there has been 274 00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:34.519 a rash of injuries, including Jason Hayward. As you know, you heard 275 00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:40.319 Dave Roberts talk about the knee Brews on his left knee. So that's the 276 00:19:40.359 --> 00:19:45.519 opportunity not only for outman but also Miguel Vargas, and I thought Jason Hayward 277 00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:48.759 really hit it on the head. A lot of these guys filling in for 278 00:19:48.839 --> 00:19:52.960 these injured players are trying to do too much at the plate. Nobody can 279 00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:57.480 replace Max Munsey and his power and just what he does on this roster. 280 00:19:59.000 --> 00:20:03.519 Nobody can replace. That's what Mookie Betts does. So don't try to be 281 00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:07.240 those guys. Just do as much as you can, can't as much as 282 00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:11.279 you can to keep that line moving. Dave, real quick, I heard 283 00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:12.519 you talk about on the post game last night. You talked about it a 284 00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:17.599 couple of times here on the pregame during this last series against Arizona. Milwaukee's 285 00:20:17.640 --> 00:20:19.759 coming. The Brewers are coming. They're battling for a top two spots in 286 00:20:19.799 --> 00:20:22.680 the National League. This is a big test this weekend for the Dodgers. 287 00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:26.839 This sense around the clubhouse and being on the field the last couple hours, 288 00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:30.759 is there an extra excitement for this series? I guess not excitement, but 289 00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:36.160 I feel like the Dodgers are trying to take inventory in their own clubhouse and 290 00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:41.160 holding each other accountable to play better than what they've played in the last two 291 00:20:41.240 --> 00:20:44.880 series. They've given up way too many runs, they haven't been able to 292 00:20:44.960 --> 00:20:49.000 deliver. They've only scored twice in their last seventeen innings. I just feel 293 00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:53.720 like the Dodgers are taking a look in the mirror and trying to find a 294 00:20:53.720 --> 00:20:59.160 way to play better baseball more than worry about the Brewers. That's how we 295 00:20:59.359 --> 00:21:03.359 feel the Dodgers are playing these three games against the Brewers, but also after 296 00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:07.279 this series is over, the Dodgers head out on the road to play the 297 00:21:07.279 --> 00:21:11.759 best team in the National League in the Phillies. So back to back series 298 00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:18.759 against two other first place teams in the division. So that's I don't want 299 00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:22.799 to call it some sort of test, but certainly the Dodgers are gonna have 300 00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:27.039 to play much better than they have the last two weeks to get a series 301 00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:32.519 win here against the Brewers and certainly in Philly, no doubt about it. 302 00:21:32.599 --> 00:21:33.599 Dave, great stuff. We'll check back you with you in a little bit 303 00:21:33.599 --> 00:21:37.920 coming up here on Morongo Casino.

It is Lorongo Casino, Dodgers on Dodgers on Deck. 336 00:24:18.839 --> 00:24:27.000 Y'all on the official home of LA Dodgers Baseball. Dodgers and Brewers.

And now joined by David Bassey, 343 00:24:53.160 --> 00:25:02.000 here's LA Dodgers broadcaster and World Series Champion Dodger Rick Rick. The Dodgers 344 00:25:02.079 --> 00:25:07.519 have a chance now to separate themselves from the Milwaukee Brewers in the NL playoff 345 00:25:07.559 --> 00:25:11.359 picture. Yeah, one game separates them right now. There's still a lot 346 00:25:11.400 --> 00:25:15.440 of water that has to go underneath the bridge, but the Dodgers need to 347 00:25:15.480 --> 00:25:19.599 get some runs across that bridge, and that's not the case. You start 348 00:25:19.640 --> 00:25:23.079 to look at what has happened, or really what has not happened. And 349 00:25:23.319 --> 00:25:26.319 Tim Nevert and I will talk about it a little bit later on in the 350 00:25:26.359 --> 00:25:30.920 pregame show and certainly in the ballgame itself, But you start to look at 351 00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:33.480 the last four games the Dodgers have played. They're one and three. They 352 00:25:33.480 --> 00:25:38.960 have been out hit David Vassey fifty four hits to thirty two. They've also 353 00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:47.240 been outscored thirty six runs to seventeen. The Dodgers have had thirty one opportunities 354 00:25:47.240 --> 00:25:51.279 with a runner in scoring position and a bat, and opposing teams have had 355 00:25:51.400 --> 00:25:55.559 fifty four in the same period of time in those four games. And whether 356 00:25:55.599 --> 00:26:00.240 you're wearing a tie and a jacket because you're also doing a television today are 357 00:26:00.279 --> 00:26:03.119 not Those are numbers to be concerned about, mister Vesse. And you hope 358 00:26:03.160 --> 00:26:07.480 that Tyler Glass now can stop the bleeding. Today, Rick because starting pitching 359 00:26:07.880 --> 00:26:14.079 is been a real big key to the Dodgers success or not as much success 360 00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:17.079 this year. We talk every day, right, what have I said about 361 00:26:17.079 --> 00:26:19.559 saying we hope, we hope. No, we know that glass Now is 362 00:26:19.599 --> 00:26:22.559 going to do it. However, you know, you start to look at 363 00:26:22.599 --> 00:26:26.200 what he has done in the pass. He's faced the Brewers six games, 364 00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:30.240 two starts. You know, that's when he's with the Pittsburgh Pirates. That's 365 00:26:30.240 --> 00:26:33.559 how far you have to go back. So different teams, different times, 366 00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:37.559 no question about that. But for glass Now has to find more consistency in 367 00:26:37.599 --> 00:26:40.880 the strike zone. You know. The other thing I looked at with glass 368 00:26:40.920 --> 00:26:44.200 Now, especially with runners on base. You know he's on corked eleven wild 369 00:26:44.240 --> 00:26:47.720 pitches already. Yeah, I guess that's the spiking of the curveball, right, 370 00:26:47.759 --> 00:26:49.160 Rick, yep, yep. So we'll find out how the curve ball 371 00:26:49.240 --> 00:26:52.079 is going when he is on. I mean he is. He's a very 372 00:26:52.160 --> 00:26:57.000 uncomfortable at bat, which is something the Dodgers did not do with Christian Walker. 373 00:26:57.400 --> 00:27:00.240 They basically gave him room, sir is for three games. Do you 374 00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:03.519 really want to go back and look at that, Rick, No, I 375 00:27:03.519 --> 00:27:04.920 don't want to look at it. I'll just talk about it because it's less 376 00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:10.519 painful. Sounds good. Hey, James Outman is back with the Dodgers. 377 00:27:10.599 --> 00:27:15.079 Jason Hayward going on the injured list. Outman obviously did not sulk at Oklahoma 378 00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:18.920 City. He took it as a challenge to get better. Yeah, sad 379 00:27:19.000 --> 00:27:23.279 news that Jason Hedward gets injured and trying to leap up over the fence and 380 00:27:23.599 --> 00:27:27.359 bring back what proved to be a home run ball and the knee itself. 381 00:27:27.960 --> 00:27:33.359 Now for Autman, it's a chance. There's two different types of young players 382 00:27:33.359 --> 00:27:37.160 that get sent down. Those that are mad and pout, and it takes 383 00:27:37.200 --> 00:27:40.960 them a period of time before they realize, hey, the only way I'm 384 00:27:41.000 --> 00:27:45.079 going to get back to the big leagues is to kick it into gear. 385 00:27:45.559 --> 00:27:48.160 And then there's the other type that James Outman follows into that. He took 386 00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:52.319 it as a challenge and he was open to it, and he went and 387 00:27:52.359 --> 00:27:55.400 he worked hard. Yes, it was going to take an injury in order 388 00:27:55.400 --> 00:27:57.079 for him to get back up here. Started off with some very good numbers, 389 00:27:57.119 --> 00:28:00.880 then they kind of curtailed. The biggest question for James Outman is not 390 00:28:02.039 --> 00:28:07.720 defense. He's had a couple of odd based running gaffes since he's been at 391 00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:11.440 the big league level. But I think the big thing is right now contact 392 00:28:11.559 --> 00:28:15.160 and he has to make more consistent contact than what we have seen the first 393 00:28:15.160 --> 00:28:18.480 two trips up to the big leagues. We always talk about opportunity, and 394 00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:25.079 it's unfortunate that injuries have given some Dodger players opportunities. Miguel Vargas has been 395 00:28:25.119 --> 00:28:27.680 waiting for his It seems like he is going to get some regular at bats. 396 00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:32.640 Yeah, he will, and needed because they need the defense. I 397 00:28:32.680 --> 00:28:34.680 mean, there's no ifens and bunts has been kind of a sign in police 398 00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:40.039 name that tune at third base, and tonight it is going to be Chris 399 00:28:40.079 --> 00:28:41.880 Taylor who starts at third base. So the defense on the left side of 400 00:28:41.880 --> 00:28:45.480 the infield has been well, kind of questionable here and there. They do 401 00:28:45.519 --> 00:28:49.039 an atequa John, They do it a very good job. Miguel Rojas is 402 00:28:49.039 --> 00:28:52.839 one of the biggest glove guys you can find in baseball as far as being 403 00:28:52.839 --> 00:28:56.759 able to catch the ball, catch the ball consistently and then make the throws 404 00:28:57.000 --> 00:29:00.359 as well. By the way, Mookie Betts was looking out at shortstop early 405 00:29:00.400 --> 00:29:03.880 this afternoon. No, he does not have a glove on the left hand, 406 00:29:03.960 --> 00:29:08.039 which he has the other fractured left hand. But he was having baseball 407 00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:11.640 in hand, going through footwork as if he was fielding the ball at shortstop, 408 00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:15.720 and then working on the arm. That's the big thing too. Keep 409 00:29:15.759 --> 00:29:18.119 the legs ready, keep the arm ready. Can't swing the bat yet, 410 00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:22.079 but I wonder if he is also going to get to a situation even before 411 00:29:22.079 --> 00:29:27.039 he can swing the bat. Get in the cage and just see pitches. 412 00:29:27.400 --> 00:29:32.880 See pitches, track pitches, find out strike zone not strike zone, even 413 00:29:32.920 --> 00:29:34.319 though he can't swing the bat. That'd be a good exercise. Hey, 414 00:29:34.480 --> 00:29:38.519 I'll relay that message, Ray, please do yeah, because most of my 415 00:29:38.559 --> 00:29:41.799 messages fall upon deaf ears down there. Anyway, we'll figure that out. 416 00:29:41.880 --> 00:29:45.200 Rick, we'll send it back to you in the studio. Didn't do it 417 00:29:45.200 --> 00:29:48.079 because you're wearing a tie today.

Thanks a lot for the time. 437 00:31:17.160 --> 00:31:19.720 Yeah, no problem, man, That's what everybody knows. Trying to 438 00:31:21.640 --> 00:31:23.720 I mean, trying to get this thing going, you know, like we 439 00:31:23.720 --> 00:31:26.839 we haven't been playing really good the last couple of days, but I feel 440 00:31:26.839 --> 00:31:32.559 like this is a great opportunity for us to close out the homestand with a 441 00:31:32.559 --> 00:31:36.920 serious win against a rival that they're they're playing pretty good baseball too, So 442 00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:41.519 it's gonna be a fun and really enjoyable series. Miguel, You obviously understand 443 00:31:41.559 --> 00:31:45.079 the grind of one hundred and sixty two games, but how important is it 444 00:31:45.599 --> 00:31:49.680 not to allow complacency to set in. Yeah, I feel like as a 445 00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:55.240 as a professional athletes, we have to come every single day and and do 446 00:31:55.359 --> 00:31:57.759 our part and to work at it kind of be prepared for the game, 447 00:31:59.240 --> 00:32:01.400 regardless of like how long the season is going to be, and I mean 448 00:32:01.480 --> 00:32:05.319 what part of the part of the season we are right now, like knowing 449 00:32:05.359 --> 00:32:08.119 that the All Star break is coming and we're gonna need those days, you 450 00:32:08.160 --> 00:32:12.480 know, to kind of relax and set the mind for the second half of 451 00:32:12.480 --> 00:32:15.000 the year. But at the end of the day, we can't really stop 452 00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:19.119 working. We have to come to a ball part every single day with the 453 00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:22.240 mentality of winning this baseball game. So it's really important. It doesn't matter 454 00:32:22.319 --> 00:32:27.519 what what kind of uh of a day do you having off the field, 455 00:32:27.559 --> 00:32:30.759 you have to come here and give your best to the team to prepare them 456 00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:34.519 be ready for the game. Jason Heyward said something last night after the game. 457 00:32:34.559 --> 00:32:37.039 He believes some of the guys having to fill in for the injured players 458 00:32:37.319 --> 00:32:40.839 have been trying to do too much. How important is it not to try 459 00:32:40.880 --> 00:32:44.599 to do that? It's really hard not to, you know, like when 460 00:32:44.640 --> 00:32:47.079 you get an opportunity to play and you get an opportunity to help the team 461 00:32:47.119 --> 00:32:51.160 in a daily basis, I feel like you are you feel the pressure and 462 00:32:51.160 --> 00:32:54.480 you feel the necessity of getting your job done. I don't think it's a 463 00:32:55.359 --> 00:32:58.799 it's a bad thing, you know, like we're gonna have to face that, 464 00:32:58.920 --> 00:33:01.480 We're gonna have to delivered on the top moments. And I feel like 465 00:33:01.599 --> 00:33:07.799 with the with the injuries that we've been having throughout the last couple of months 466 00:33:07.799 --> 00:33:13.039 of the season, Uh that's gonna create a character on players who are start 467 00:33:13.119 --> 00:33:15.279 the year on the on the bench or on the on a different role. 468 00:33:15.359 --> 00:33:19.160 I feel like this is our time to be the next guy up. You 469 00:33:19.200 --> 00:33:22.160 know, Uh, James Allman is going to have a new opportunity to come 470 00:33:22.200 --> 00:33:24.200 here impact the game, and we all believe in him, and we all 471 00:33:24.200 --> 00:33:29.559 believe and everybody that's out there in the on the field. So for me, 472 00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:32.440 it's not it's not it's not necessarily a bad thing that you feel pressure 473 00:33:32.519 --> 00:33:36.160 to do your job, no doubt. Got to have that urgency. And 474 00:33:36.200 --> 00:33:39.920 Miguel Rojas certainly has been a consummate teammate, on selfish teammate. And I'm 475 00:33:39.920 --> 00:33:43.880 not sure you heard what Mookie Betts had to say in the booth a couple 476 00:33:43.880 --> 00:33:47.720 of nights ago about Miguel Rojas. He talked about how karma is paying you 477 00:33:47.880 --> 00:33:52.279 forward now after your unselfishness putting in the time with him when he was playing 478 00:33:52.279 --> 00:33:58.000 shortstop learning shortstop. What does that mean to you that he still appreciates the 479 00:33:58.079 --> 00:34:01.039 time you put in to help him be a better player. That's the best, 480 00:34:01.079 --> 00:34:05.680 because I mean when I when I decided to do it, I decided 481 00:34:05.720 --> 00:34:09.440 because I just want him to feel comfortable and to feel better at shortstop. 482 00:34:09.519 --> 00:34:14.039 I know it's not an easy task. He said it that he's one of 483 00:34:14.079 --> 00:34:16.920 the like the hardest thing that he have to do on a baseball field and 484 00:34:17.079 --> 00:34:21.360 during a baseball season, And it's not a really easy thing to do when 485 00:34:21.400 --> 00:34:24.159 you have to go to short stop and be the best that you can be 486 00:34:24.199 --> 00:34:28.760 in that position by yourself, you know, Like he we have like a 487 00:34:28.800 --> 00:34:30.840 great group of coaches, great group of people. I know he has his 488 00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:36.760 own kind of core on his family and his friends, but at the same 489 00:34:36.800 --> 00:34:39.639 time, you're going to need your teammates to actually like help you keep you 490 00:34:40.239 --> 00:34:44.280 keep you accountable, and at the same time like help you to kind of 491 00:34:44.320 --> 00:34:46.599 like overcome little things, you know, and be next to you when you're 492 00:34:46.639 --> 00:34:51.920 not like doing so good as well. So for me, it was never 493 00:34:52.039 --> 00:34:54.719 like a sacrifice that I did because everything that I did with him helped me 494 00:34:54.960 --> 00:35:00.320 to stay in shape for this moment. And I think my Boddy's charged my 495 00:35:00.480 --> 00:35:04.840 my mining shart because I never took a game a day off from working and 496 00:35:04.960 --> 00:35:07.519 from like doing what I need to do, and that guy right there make 497 00:35:07.599 --> 00:35:13.000 me work extremely hard because he's never satisfied with what he have. I love 498 00:35:13.039 --> 00:35:15.880 that Miguel Rojas, like I said, this is a series of the best 499 00:35:15.920 --> 00:35:21.079 shortstops in baseball. How do you look at a series like this when you 500 00:35:21.119 --> 00:35:24.960 got Willie Damis playing your position. Obviously he's younger than you, but certainly 501 00:35:25.480 --> 00:35:30.880 you can appreciate how good he is. Well. First off, I really 502 00:35:30.039 --> 00:35:34.559 enjoy when I have to go against the best, and I feel like Willie's 503 00:35:34.599 --> 00:35:37.480 been on top of the game for a long time now, you know, 504 00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:43.079 he found it seems like he found a home in Milwaukee on Leach. Kind 505 00:35:43.079 --> 00:35:45.679 of his potential offensively, but he's always being a defensive first guy. For 506 00:35:45.760 --> 00:35:50.079 me, when when I get the opportunity to play against him in Tampa, 507 00:35:50.199 --> 00:35:54.320 I always see his ability to actually make great plays, but he always make 508 00:35:54.400 --> 00:35:58.800 the routine plays as well. So that's kind of what you want to as 509 00:35:58.840 --> 00:36:01.880 a short step, you know, being able to make every routine play and 510 00:36:01.960 --> 00:36:05.599 at the end of the day when they need, when the team needs a 511 00:36:05.679 --> 00:36:07.559 clutch play out there, a shortstop. He's one of the guys that I 512 00:36:07.639 --> 00:36:14.519 kind of look up to because he's he's really good out there, and on 513 00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:16.960 my side, I feel like, really proud that with thirty five years old, 514 00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:21.639 I can actually compete against a guy like him in the in his mid 515 00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:25.199 twenties. That's that's something that I really take pride of. Hey, it's 516 00:36:25.199 --> 00:36:30.480 not thirty five years old, it's thirty five years young with wayn Miguel Rojas 517 00:36:30.559 --> 00:36:34.280 is playing this year. Thanks a lot for the time, and obviously your 518 00:36:34.320 --> 00:36:37.920 words speak volumes to appreciate the time. Thank you by appreciate it. There 519 00:36:37.960 --> 00:36:39.599 he is the best, not only on the field but off the field. 520 00:36:39.840 --> 00:36:42.880 One of the great people you'll meet.

Last in the 534 00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:43.960 year and a half was with Tampa Bay. He was just acquired by the 535 00:37:44.000 --> 00:37:46.760 Brewers in a trade last week, making his first start Milwaukee last time out 536 00:37:46.760 --> 00:37:50.079 with the Rays five and two, third innings to run, six hits and 537 00:37:50.159 --> 00:37:53.480 loss to the National Savai has never faced the Dodgers, one of six teams 538 00:37:53.519 --> 00:37:57.920 he has never pitched against in the big leagues.

It wasn't a 542 00:38:07.840 --> 00:38:10.760 good outing.

Tyler Glass now looking for win number nine tonight as he makes his 557 00:39:15.159 --> 00:39:20.559 eighteen start. He'll do it against Aaron Savani. Savally making his Brewer's debut. 558 00:39:20.960 --> 00:39:23.280 He was picked up last week by Milwaukee from Tampa Bay. Yeah. 559 00:39:23.360 --> 00:39:25.639 I think for Glass now, the big thing Tim is to be able to 560 00:39:25.679 --> 00:39:30.239 dial in the strike zone, to do it consistently. That kerb ball has 561 00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:34.880 been spiked, in fact, eleven wild pitches already for glassnow in the start 562 00:39:34.960 --> 00:39:37.960 city's hand when he's throwing strikes, it has been very difficult for hitters to 563 00:39:37.960 --> 00:39:43.360 even put the ball into play. High strikeouts, not that many walks. 564 00:39:43.360 --> 00:39:46.000 But for Glass now again, consistency, command of the strike zone. Yeah, 565 00:39:46.199 --> 00:39:50.559 he's gone one hundred and three innings so far this year. That's seventeen 566 00:39:50.639 --> 00:39:55.360 inning shy of matching his career high of one hundred and twenty. And we're 567 00:39:55.360 --> 00:40:00.519 not yet at the All Star break. So we've seen a much more durable 568 00:40:00.639 --> 00:40:02.880 version of Toddler glassmen. Yeah, and on the other side for Somali, 569 00:40:04.119 --> 00:40:07.199 you know, he's zero and five in his last fourteen outings with an ERA 570 00:40:07.519 --> 00:40:12.400 of almost five point eight Dodgers hope they get to the Brewers bullpen that we 571 00:40:12.440 --> 00:40:16.519 mentioned earlier. Brewers bullpen has done a very good job. Brewers Dodgers Game 572 00:40:16.559 --> 00:40:21.559 one of three this weekend at Dodger Stadium. Tip all right. Dodgers start 573 00:40:21.639 --> 00:40:24.800 the night fifty three and thirty five, losers of two in a row. 574 00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:30.880 Brewers come into fifty two and thirty six. They are first place atop the 575 00:40:30.079 --> 00:40:37.280 nl wes Dodgers' second best record in the National League. Brews top the NL 576 00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:40.320 Central ahead of the Saint Louis Cardinals. This could be a playoff preview. 577 00:40:40.320 --> 00:40:43.559 Dodgers well, of course, want to get one of the top two spots 578 00:40:43.719 --> 00:40:45.639 and a buye in the wild card round, so this could be a big 579 00:40:45.719 --> 00:40:50.760 series for the Dodgers with the Brewers in town for three first pitches next. 580 00:40:50.840 --> 00:40:53.400 Don't forget after the game, I'll be back with all the postgame festivities, 581 00:40:53.599 --> 00:40:58.920 including Dodger Talk.
