5
00:00:20.079 --> 00:00:22.440
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers had a chance to close out this series on

6
00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:25.519
<v Speaker 2>Friday in New York. However, the Mets weren't ready for

7
00:00:25.559 --> 00:00:28.280
<v Speaker 2>the season to be over quite yet and blew out

8
00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:31.559
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers twelve to six. Now, the Dodgers have a

9
00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:35.759
<v Speaker 2>three to two series lead. Tonight, Game six of the NLCS,

00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:41.399
<v Speaker 2>birth to the World Series. Dodgers going with the bullpen game.

12
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:44.960
<v Speaker 2>Michael Kopek, the hard throwing right hander, will serve as

13
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.320
<v Speaker 2>the opener. First pitch him. Dodgers Stadium is coming up

14

00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:54.359
<v Speaker 3>We got a lot to get to.

17
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:57.200
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna hear from the manager himself, Dave Roberts, get

18
00:00:57.240 --> 00:01:00.840
<v Speaker 2>his pregame thoughts before this pivotal Game six. We'll preview

19
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:03.439
<v Speaker 2>this pitching matchup as the Mets go with left hander

20
00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:06.879
<v Speaker 2>Sean Manaya. David vas say, we'll check in throughout the show.

21
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:11.359
<v Speaker 2>We've got your Dodgers magical moment, your otani rewind. Shortly,

22
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:14.239
<v Speaker 2>we will check in with Kirsten Watson from Sports and

23
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:16.079
<v Speaker 2>at LA and in just a few minutes we will

24
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:19.280
<v Speaker 2>head out to the Kalpin Motors broadcast booth with Steven

25
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:20.920
<v Speaker 2>Nelson and Rick monday Well.

26
00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:22.079
<v Speaker 3>Friday, in New York.

27
00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:24.760
<v Speaker 2>It was all set up for the Dodgers to celebrate

28
00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:26.719
<v Speaker 2>a National League pennant. They had a three to one

29
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.840
<v Speaker 2>series lead in the best of seven series. Jack Flarity

30
00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:33.519
<v Speaker 2>on the mound, but unfortunately, the Mets didn't want to

31
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:36.640
<v Speaker 2>go quietly. Bottom of the first inning, Pete Alonzo a

32
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:40.000
<v Speaker 2>three run home run off Jack Flarity and the Mets

33
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:42.640
<v Speaker 2>grabbed the early three to nothing lead. The Dodgers got

34
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:44.560
<v Speaker 2>one of those runs back in the second, Key k

35
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.519
<v Speaker 2>Hernettez scored from third on a wild pitch, Dodgers down

36
00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:50.280
<v Speaker 2>three to one. In the third, though, things really got

37
00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:53.079
<v Speaker 2>away from Jack Flerity, and it happened quickly. Back to

38
00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:55.200
<v Speaker 2>back walks to lead off the inning. Starling Martine then

39
00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:57.519
<v Speaker 2>a two run double Mets up five to one. Three

40
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:00.719
<v Speaker 2>batters later, Francisco Alvarez an RBI saying well. Then Francisco

41
00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:04.359
<v Speaker 2>Lindor at RBI triple Brandon Nibbo and RBI single match

42
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:06.640
<v Speaker 2>with five runs in the bottom of the third off

43
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:10.680
<v Speaker 2>Jack flarerty took an eight to one lead. Dodgers were

44
00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:12.479
<v Speaker 2>down big and had a lot of work to do

45
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:14.800
<v Speaker 2>to get out of it. Andy pijz I stole a

46
00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:17.000
<v Speaker 2>home run that made it an eight to two game. Unfortunately,

47
00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:19.080
<v Speaker 2>the Mets countered with two in the bottom of the

48
00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:21.680
<v Speaker 2>fourth to extend their lead to ten to two. In

49
00:02:21.759 --> 00:02:25.000
<v Speaker 2>the fifth, Andy Piz at it again, this time a

50
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:26.000
<v Speaker 2>three run blast.

51
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:29.719
<v Speaker 4>Pie swings hits a high fly ball left fielding deep.

52
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:33.240
<v Speaker 4>Pies tosses the bat again. It's at the wall and

53
00:02:33.439 --> 00:02:37.479
<v Speaker 4>it's gone. His second home run here in Game five,

54
00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:41.280
<v Speaker 4>and now it's ten to five. So Andy Pi haz

55
00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:45.319
<v Speaker 4>three for three thanks to his first two postseason home

56
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:46.759
<v Speaker 4>runs of his young career.

57
00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:49.919
<v Speaker 2>Three run home run for Pajes his second home run

58
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:51.879
<v Speaker 2>of the day. That's the top tier play the game

59
00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:55.479
<v Speaker 2>sponsored by Arco Quality, top tier gas for less. Dodgers

60
00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:58.000
<v Speaker 2>down ten to five, they were slowly chipping away at

61
00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:00.479
<v Speaker 2>this deficit, which again was a big when they put

62
00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:03.599
<v Speaker 2>themselves in early. In this sixth, they chipped away even

63
00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:05.520
<v Speaker 2>further thanks to Mookie Betts.

64
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:08.520
<v Speaker 4>Mookie Bets HiT's a hard left field, pushing Nimo.

65
00:03:08.360 --> 00:03:12.159
<v Speaker 2>Back and he turns around in Mookie Bets with a bomb,

66
00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:15.439
<v Speaker 2>a lead up home run for Mookie in the six

67
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:19.280
<v Speaker 2>and the Dodgers are within four. Mookie with the solo

68
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:22.680
<v Speaker 2>home run as they got another run closer. Dodgers down

69
00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:24.639
<v Speaker 2>ten to six with the breath of fresh Air moment

70
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:27.319
<v Speaker 2>of the game presented by a Tara Mechanical. Looking for

78
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:50.879
<v Speaker 2>couldn't keep it. Their mets are running the bottom of

79
00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:52.680
<v Speaker 2>the inning. One more in the eighth. They go on

80
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:55.120
<v Speaker 2>and beat the Dodgers twelve to six on Friday to

81
00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:58.280
<v Speaker 2>stave off elimination and force a game six in this

82
00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:02.360
<v Speaker 2>NLCS Tonight, this series back at Dodgers Stadium, Dodgers a

83
00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:05.000
<v Speaker 2>three to two series lead. Michael Kopek the open on

84
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:07.080
<v Speaker 2>the mound for the Dodgers. First pitch coming up at

85
00:04:07.080 --> 00:04:08.840
<v Speaker 2>five oho eight and with more we head out to

86
00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:11.439
<v Speaker 2>the Gallpin Motors broadcast booth as we welcome in Stephen

87
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:13.039
<v Speaker 2>Nelson and Rick Monday.

88
00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:14.039
<v Speaker 3>Guys.

89
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:16.879
<v Speaker 4>All right, TC, We're back at Dodgers Stadium. Moan on

90
00:04:16.920 --> 00:04:19.800
<v Speaker 4>a cloud in the sky, but there is a ton

91
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:23.839
<v Speaker 4>of anxiety in the air the Dodgers and Mets. Game six.

92
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:27.360
<v Speaker 4>They come home up three to two on the Mets. Hmmm,

93
00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:32.519
<v Speaker 4>sounds familiar, nineteen eighty eight, kind of familiar. But these

94
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:34.959
<v Speaker 4>Dodgers in twenty twenty four, they don't want to let

95
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:35.839
<v Speaker 4>it get to tomorrow.

96
00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:38.279
<v Speaker 5>No, they don't. And I'll tell you what's going on

97
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:41.040
<v Speaker 5>in the Mets dugout even in their locker room. We're

98
00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:43.800
<v Speaker 5>not in there. The game has not started. But I've

99
00:04:43.839 --> 00:04:46.279
<v Speaker 5>been in that spot before a couple of different times.

100
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:49.680
<v Speaker 5>For the Mets. Their mindset is people are gonna say look,

101
00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:50.959
<v Speaker 5>you have to win two in a row. No, they don't.

102
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:53.560
<v Speaker 5>They need to win one, and that is to really

103
00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:56.000
<v Speaker 5>stay alive tonight. And if you're looking at the odds,

104
00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:58.319
<v Speaker 5>I mean the Dodgers going with a bullpen game, so

105
00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:01.000
<v Speaker 5>they're gonna have to have five or six different relievers

106
00:05:01.120 --> 00:05:05.040
<v Speaker 5>that have good nights tonight. So again the Mets, their

107
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:08.399
<v Speaker 5>overall strategy is to win one. And you talk about

108
00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:11.240
<v Speaker 5>opening up the floodgates, They're gonna use everything that they

109
00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:12.920
<v Speaker 5>possibly have. It's a Knight's ball game.

110
00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:15.560
<v Speaker 4>Every game up to this point has been one sided.

111
00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:18.199
<v Speaker 4>There has not been a competitive bout to date in

112
00:05:18.279 --> 00:05:21.000
<v Speaker 4>this series. You wonder if it happens tonight given in

113
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:23.519
<v Speaker 4>everything that's on the line for the Dodgers, it's another

114
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:26.319
<v Speaker 4>World Series birth be the twenty second in franchise history

115
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:28.399
<v Speaker 4>and for the Mets since their season. Right, So Michael

116
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:31.879
<v Speaker 4>Kopek will open up this bullpen game and then Sean

117
00:05:31.959 --> 00:05:34.439
<v Speaker 4>and I are starting for New York and Mania. As

118
00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:36.879
<v Speaker 4>we saw, shut the Dodgers down by and large in

119
00:05:36.920 --> 00:05:38.920
<v Speaker 4>Game two, four scoreless, and then things kind of got

120
00:05:38.959 --> 00:05:41.319
<v Speaker 4>away from him in the fifth, but three of the

121
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:44.319
<v Speaker 4>runs that were pushed across charged to him on the

122
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:46.800
<v Speaker 4>to earn. I understand that two came home after he

123
00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:47.439
<v Speaker 4>was out of the game.

124
00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:50.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Dodgers have to hit better than what they were

125
00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:53.800
<v Speaker 5>doing against Manya. And quite frankly, if we look at

126
00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:55.680
<v Speaker 5>a few of the spots in this lineup and with

127
00:05:55.839 --> 00:05:59.519
<v Speaker 5>the biggest thing is the absence of Freddy Freeman. You know,

128
00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:03.519
<v Speaker 5>Dave Roberts alluded yesterday during the workout that Freeman most

129
00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:05.920
<v Speaker 5>likely would be in the starting lineup. Well, he is

130
00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:08.959
<v Speaker 5>not in the lineup. That opens up an opportunity. Andy

131
00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:12.519
<v Speaker 5>Pajes will be in the center field and for Chris

132
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.399
<v Speaker 5>Taylor's starting at saka base kick Hernanez will be at

133
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:18.759
<v Speaker 5>third because that moves Max Munsey from third over to

134
00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:21.199
<v Speaker 5>first base. But the Dodgers have a few guys in

135
00:06:21.240 --> 00:06:24.199
<v Speaker 5>a line up, quite frankly, have been very quiet with

136
00:06:24.279 --> 00:06:26.279
<v Speaker 5>the bats and that needs to improve in a hurry.

137
00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:28.680
<v Speaker 4>And it has to be one of the non superstars.

138
00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:31.519
<v Speaker 4>Shohe and Mooki have carried their weight the last two games.

139
00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:34.639
<v Speaker 4>They're nine for seventeen, five extra base hits, three home runs,

140
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:35.079
<v Speaker 4>eight runs.

141
00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:35.360
<v Speaker 6>Score.

142
00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:38.000
<v Speaker 4>Those guys the stars are doing their job. So who's

143
00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:41.000
<v Speaker 4>gonna step up beyond just Tommy Edmund Beyond Max Munsey,

144
00:06:41.079 --> 00:06:43.399
<v Speaker 4>you're looking at Ti Oscar Hernandez for one for sure,

145
00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:45.800
<v Speaker 4>and Will Smith. Those are two of the other heavyweights

146
00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:47.800
<v Speaker 4>in this lineup and when they have not had an

147
00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:50.639
<v Speaker 4>impact on this series at all, will it happen in

148
00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:52.800
<v Speaker 4>Game six and will they help the Dodgers get back

149
00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:54.759
<v Speaker 4>to the World Series. We'll find out in the matter

150
00:06:54.759 --> 00:06:55.199
<v Speaker 4>of hours.

151
00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:57.680
<v Speaker 2>All right, thank you, Steven, as we call you down

152

<v Speaker 2>oh eight. Thanks for being with us. I'm Tim Kates's

<v Speaker 1>It is Lorongo Casino, Dodgers on Dodgers on deck, y'all

165
00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:41.560
<v Speaker 1>on the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.

166
00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:47.120
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers Mets Game six of the National League Championship Series,

167
00:07:47.160 --> 00:07:50.759
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers a three to two series lead. Michael Kopek will

168
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:53.199
<v Speaker 2>serve as the opener for the Dodgers. Left hander shan

169
00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:55.240
<v Speaker 2>and Iyah pitched in Game two. We'll go for the

170
00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:57.040
<v Speaker 2>Mets first pitch at five oh eight.

171
00:07:58.160 --> 00:08:02.920
<v Speaker 1>This is the Otani rewind.

172
00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:06.879
<v Speaker 4>The payoff from Peterson. Otani swings through the right side

173
00:08:06.879 --> 00:08:09.439
<v Speaker 4>and in the right center field for a leadoff base hit.

174
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:14.639
<v Speaker 4>So here's Otani the two out first pitch, swinging little

175
00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:17.560
<v Speaker 4>flair beyond the infield left field. It's sinking fast and

176
00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:21.120
<v Speaker 4>it'll drop in a no man's lamb. So Otani aboard

177
00:08:21.160 --> 00:08:23.879
<v Speaker 4>with a blot bass hit. He has reached all three

178
00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:24.759
<v Speaker 4>times today.

179
00:08:25.160 --> 00:08:28.279
<v Speaker 2>Show hey, Otani two for four on base, three times

180

<v Speaker 2>Hey Kirson now joins us before in Game six, Dodgers

189
00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:58.919
<v Speaker 2>a three to two series lead and Kirsen a chance

190
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:01.360
<v Speaker 2>to close it out again tonight after not doing it

191
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:03.679
<v Speaker 2>on Friday night in New York and looking at the

192
00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:06.320
<v Speaker 2>lineup looks a little different tonight for Game six.

193
00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:06.720
<v Speaker 7>It does.

194
00:09:06.799 --> 00:09:09.559
<v Speaker 6>So there's no Freddy Freeman, no Gavin Lunx. But let's

195
00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:11.960
<v Speaker 6>start with Freddy. So, as we all know, he's been

196
00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:14.480
<v Speaker 6>dealing with this ankle injury and as much as he's

197
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:16.879
<v Speaker 6>been trying to kind of put his body on the

198
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:18.679
<v Speaker 6>line and be out there for his teammates, we have

199
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:21.879
<v Speaker 6>seen him do just that. But Dave Roberts recently had

200
00:09:21.919 --> 00:09:26.840
<v Speaker 6>shared that the ankle injury is impacting his swing now,

201
00:09:27.039 --> 00:09:29.440
<v Speaker 6>so you know, he's not getting the results offensively that

202
00:09:29.519 --> 00:09:31.720
<v Speaker 6>he's especially if look at the most recent few games,

203
00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:34.080
<v Speaker 6>he's not getting the results he's wanted to at the plate.

204
00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:37.559
<v Speaker 6>It's also a bit limiting on some moves defensively, and

205
00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:40.559
<v Speaker 6>so it's one of those things where he had a

206
00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:43.120
<v Speaker 6>conversation with Freddy and it just kind of made more

207
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:45.679
<v Speaker 6>sense to keep him down today. So then if you know,

208
00:09:45.919 --> 00:09:47.759
<v Speaker 6>they do end up going to a Game seven, then

209
00:09:47.840 --> 00:09:49.600
<v Speaker 6>he could put himself in a good spot that he

210
00:09:49.639 --> 00:09:53.039
<v Speaker 6>could be available for tomorrow and even just allowing him

211
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:55.320
<v Speaker 6>potentially then more time to prepare for the World Series.

212
00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:58.480
<v Speaker 6>So they wont him out there. Obviously it means a

213
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:00.879
<v Speaker 6>lot when he is out there, but if it doesn't

214
00:10:00.960 --> 00:10:03.440
<v Speaker 6>make sense, it's not worth pushing it. And so right

215
00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:06.080
<v Speaker 6>now they've just felt like, yes, he's available if need

216
00:10:06.159 --> 00:10:08.200
<v Speaker 6>be off the bench, but just it doesn't make sense

217
00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:09.919
<v Speaker 6>to push him right now that other guys can go

218
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:12.840
<v Speaker 6>out there and get the job done. Then with Gavin Lux,

219
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:16.039
<v Speaker 6>with there being a lefty and Sean Manyah on the mound,

220
00:10:16.320 --> 00:10:19.360
<v Speaker 6>that obviously comes into a lot of the decision making

221
00:10:19.480 --> 00:10:21.879
<v Speaker 6>without having Gavin Lux out there as a lefty bat.

222
00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:24.480
<v Speaker 6>But he's also been dealing with his hip flexor injury

223
00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:26.720
<v Speaker 6>and it's been bothering him a little bit here and there,

224
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:29.440
<v Speaker 6>so he's not one hundred percent either. Granted, most of

225
00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:31.200
<v Speaker 6>these guys are not one hundred percent, but for him

226
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:35.320
<v Speaker 6>it is limiting a bit more defensively. So they decided

227
00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:37.840
<v Speaker 6>with the matchup just didn't make sense. He's available off

228
00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:40.159
<v Speaker 6>the bench, and then again same situation as Freddy. If

229
00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:41.960
<v Speaker 6>they can give him one more day, if he needs

230
00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:43.679
<v Speaker 6>to be out there for a Game seven, then it

231
00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:45.840
<v Speaker 6>allows him to be in a better position come tomorrow.

232

236
00:10:55.799 --> 00:10:57.879
<v Speaker 2>and ayah on the mound. The Dodgers, they saw him

237
00:10:57.879 --> 00:10:59.480
<v Speaker 2>in Game two when he was pretty good.

238
00:10:59.720 --> 00:11:00.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah he was.

239
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:03.200
<v Speaker 6>And he's got a very interesting arm slot. And even

240
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:05.879
<v Speaker 6>when Dave Roberts has talked about really with Shoho Tawnis

241
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:08.279
<v Speaker 6>at bats, the times in which he has struggled this

242
00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:11.080
<v Speaker 6>postseason have been against it, you darbish. And there is

243
00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:13.960
<v Speaker 6>history in regard to that was one of his baseball heroes.

244
00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:15.559
<v Speaker 6>So they saw a little bit of expanding the plate,

245
00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:18.759
<v Speaker 6>things like that, more swing, more strikes. Then you saw

246
00:11:18.919 --> 00:11:22.120
<v Speaker 6>Tanner Scott, who's a different kind of arm slot and

247
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:23.960
<v Speaker 6>so then there's Sean Mania, but those have really been

248
00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:26.799
<v Speaker 6>the only guy Shohey has struggled against, and so he

249
00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:30.480
<v Speaker 6>does have a very interesting delivery. They have been working

250
00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:33.399
<v Speaker 6>really hard to make those adjustments. There is the benefit

251
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:35.759
<v Speaker 6>of having just seen him that they hope to use

252
00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:38.320
<v Speaker 6>that to their advantage. But they've been in the cage.

253
00:11:38.360 --> 00:11:42.960
<v Speaker 6>There's this not new machine, but essentially a velocity machine

254
00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:46.559
<v Speaker 6>that can replicate how the delivery is coming out from

255
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:48.559
<v Speaker 6>these pictures, and so they've been using a lot of

256
00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:50.639
<v Speaker 6>work with that. So hopefully it can prove to be

257
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:51.480
<v Speaker 6>beneficial tonight.

258
00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:54.440
<v Speaker 2>Hopefully it simulates a win for them tonight. Hearing us

259

279
00:12:57.240 --> 00:12:59.360
<v Speaker 2>let's head back out to Dodger Stadium and check in

280
00:12:59.399 --> 00:12:59.799
<v Speaker 2>with the Dodgers.

281
00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:01.600
<v Speaker 3>Anything else, Dave?

282
00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:03.360
<v Speaker 8>Do you think questions for Dave?

283
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:05.519
<v Speaker 9>Dave? Can you just describe Dave?

284
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:07.399
<v Speaker 3>Can you talk about the pressure.

285
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:13.720
<v Speaker 1>In the dugouts with Dave Robbers.

286
00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:17.159
<v Speaker 7>He's started games before, and I just feel that it's

287
00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:19.320
<v Speaker 7>the best chance to put up a zero in the

288
00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:21.080
<v Speaker 7>first inning and then kind of move forward.

289
00:13:21.679 --> 00:13:22.200
<v Speaker 8>Important.

290
00:13:22.320 --> 00:13:24.519
<v Speaker 6>Just when you look at the approach for this game,

291
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:27.399
<v Speaker 6>does it feel like, yes, you could go to Game seven,

292
00:13:27.440 --> 00:13:31.080
<v Speaker 6>but does it feel like it needs to be done today? Yeah?

293
00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:35.240
<v Speaker 7>I think so. I think that's the way the best

294
00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:40.120
<v Speaker 7>way to approach tonight's game. I think, you know, overall,

295
00:13:40.960 --> 00:13:43.879
<v Speaker 7>you know, we're playing good baseball. I think outside of

296
00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:49.080
<v Speaker 7>two bad innings, it's been really good. So I think

297
00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:54.440
<v Speaker 7>that you know, seeing manyah, a handful of days ago

298
00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:56.639
<v Speaker 7>boats well for us, and we just got to go

299
00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:58.799
<v Speaker 7>out there and take it to bats, and you know

300
00:13:59.480 --> 00:14:01.600
<v Speaker 7>it's gonna be a pen day, so we're gonna, you know,

301
00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:03.399
<v Speaker 7>deploy a lot of different guys tonight.

302
00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:04.759
<v Speaker 3>Fabian.

303
00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:07.799
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, Dave what ultimately went to not having Friday in

304
00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:08.320
<v Speaker 9>there today?

305
00:14:10.200 --> 00:14:15.919
<v Speaker 7>He just kind of ultimately he just felt we felt

306
00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:21.879
<v Speaker 7>that giving him another day is best for him, potentially

307
00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:24.200
<v Speaker 7>having him late for a net bat, but the defense

308
00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:31.440
<v Speaker 7>he took batting practice yesterday, felt fine, but just doesn't

309
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:34.039
<v Speaker 7>feel like himself. So we just felt that potentially another

310
00:14:34.120 --> 00:14:34.679
<v Speaker 7>day would help.

311
00:14:34.960 --> 00:14:37.399
<v Speaker 2>All Right, there's the manager, Dave Roberts down in the dugout,

00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:39.960
<v Speaker 1>This is Dodger Insider.

332
00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:43.879
<v Speaker 2>David and David now joins us from Dodgers Stadium.

333
00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:44.279
<v Speaker 3>David.

334
00:15:44.320 --> 00:15:47.080
<v Speaker 2>The Dodgers looking to bounce back after a Game five

335
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:49.080
<v Speaker 2>which they had a chance to win a City Field.

336
00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:52.440
<v Speaker 2>The last forty eight hours included a workout yesterday at

337
00:15:52.519 --> 00:15:55.240
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers Stadium. What's the mood of this Dodgers team after

338
00:15:55.279 --> 00:15:57.600
<v Speaker 2>what happened on Friday and now another chance of a

339
00:15:57.639 --> 00:15:58.399
<v Speaker 2>close out tonight.

340
00:15:58.519 --> 00:16:01.720
<v Speaker 8>Well, just being around the players around twelve thirty this afternoon,

341
00:16:01.759 --> 00:16:04.799
<v Speaker 8>tim they're all very confident that they are going to

342
00:16:04.840 --> 00:16:08.080
<v Speaker 8>be able to close out this NLCS. The coaching staff

343
00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:12.120
<v Speaker 8>is very confident in their players. And look, the Dodgers

344
00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:15.879
<v Speaker 8>have done a great job of scoring runs in this series,

345
00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:18.720
<v Speaker 8>even when they've lost. For the most part, outside of

346
00:16:18.759 --> 00:16:21.200
<v Speaker 8>Game two, they've done a great job of scoring runs.

347
00:16:21.440 --> 00:16:24.360
<v Speaker 8>Each one of these first five games have been blowouts,

348
00:16:24.399 --> 00:16:27.000
<v Speaker 8>whether it's been the Mets winning or the Dodgers winning.

349
00:16:27.399 --> 00:16:29.799
<v Speaker 8>And the sense I got also talking to some of

350
00:16:29.840 --> 00:16:33.039
<v Speaker 8>these players is that they believe that they're going to

351
00:16:33.080 --> 00:16:36.480
<v Speaker 8>be able to see Sean Maniah a lot better than

352
00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:39.399
<v Speaker 8>what they did in that one o'clock Game two. Here

353
00:16:39.440 --> 00:16:42.919
<v Speaker 8>at Dodgers Stadium last night, the Dodgers held their workout

354
00:16:42.919 --> 00:16:46.320
<v Speaker 8>at about five o'clock and they took batting practice around

355
00:16:46.399 --> 00:16:48.559
<v Speaker 8>the same time as what first pitch is going to

356
00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:51.919
<v Speaker 8>be tonight. So they're very confident that they're going to

357
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:54.960
<v Speaker 8>see the baseball out of Mania's hands a lot better.

358
00:16:55.320 --> 00:16:57.399
<v Speaker 8>And you know what, I told a couple of these guys,

359
00:16:57.759 --> 00:17:00.879
<v Speaker 8>let's not forget that's still Sean and I let's not

360
00:17:00.919 --> 00:17:02.279
<v Speaker 8>give that guy too much credit.

361
00:17:02.840 --> 00:17:05.559
<v Speaker 2>Looking at the Dodgers line of DV Freddie Freeman, Dave

362
00:17:05.640 --> 00:17:07.759
<v Speaker 2>Roberts said it on Friday after the game, he'd have

363
00:17:07.799 --> 00:17:10.400
<v Speaker 2>a conversation with him. He's not in the lineup, So

364
00:17:10.599 --> 00:17:12.319
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers' lineup it looks a little different.

365
00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:15.319
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, that was a little strange. Right yesterday Dave Roberts

366
00:17:15.400 --> 00:17:18.680
<v Speaker 8>kind of hedging on what he said after Game five

367
00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:21.759
<v Speaker 8>in New York, and basically what he said has come

368
00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:25.279
<v Speaker 8>to fruition. Freddie Freeman is not in the starting lineup,

369
00:17:25.319 --> 00:17:27.880
<v Speaker 8>but he told me in New York that even when

370
00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:30.680
<v Speaker 8>he's not in the starting lineup, he is available to

371
00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:33.720
<v Speaker 8>come off the bench. So the Dodgers have shuffled their

372
00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:36.960
<v Speaker 8>lineup a little bit. Chris Taylor is in at second base.

373
00:17:37.359 --> 00:17:40.880
<v Speaker 8>The one good thing is playoff keithk Hernandez, who came

374
00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:44.400
<v Speaker 8>up big in the series clinching Game five for the Dodgers,

375
00:17:44.799 --> 00:17:47.400
<v Speaker 8>is back in there again for the Dodgers tonight and

376
00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:50.880
<v Speaker 8>Key K was also in the interview room before tonight's game.

377
00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:53.400
<v Speaker 10>I come into the ballpark in October with the same mentality,

378
00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:56.039
<v Speaker 10>and it's win today, and we're in a really good

379
00:17:56.079 --> 00:17:59.079
<v Speaker 10>spot today to you know, clinch the pennant and go

380
00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:02.160
<v Speaker 10>to the World Series, which is exactly where we want

381
00:18:02.200 --> 00:18:05.440
<v Speaker 10>to go. That's been the goal from day one. And

382
00:18:06.680 --> 00:18:09.200
<v Speaker 10>you know, mentality is, you know, just do whatever it

383
00:18:09.200 --> 00:18:09.960
<v Speaker 10>takes to win today.

384
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:13.359
<v Speaker 8>So Key K Hernandez, he's built a reputation off of

385
00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:16.480
<v Speaker 8>being an October player. They need him. They need the

386
00:18:16.640 --> 00:18:19.400
<v Speaker 8>entire lineup to come up big tonight to be able

387
00:18:19.440 --> 00:18:22.279
<v Speaker 8>to get Manaya out of this game early and also

388
00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:26.440
<v Speaker 8>give their relievers an early lead. So it makes executing

389
00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:29.960
<v Speaker 8>a bullpen game a lot easier for Dave Roberts.

390
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:31.880
<v Speaker 3>You mentioned the rest of the line up, David.

391
00:18:31.960 --> 00:18:34.200
<v Speaker 2>One guy who hasn't gotten a hit in this entire

392
00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:36.519
<v Speaker 2>NLCS is Taoscar Hernandez.

393
00:18:36.519 --> 00:18:38.519
<v Speaker 3>They need him to start doing something right.

394
00:18:38.599 --> 00:18:41.119
<v Speaker 8>He was so big for the Dodgers in the NLDS,

395
00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:43.640
<v Speaker 8>but for whatever reason, the Mets have been able to

396
00:18:43.680 --> 00:18:46.440
<v Speaker 8>pitch him really well, and you know, Taoscar has kind

397
00:18:46.440 --> 00:18:49.400
<v Speaker 8>of fallen back into the trap we saw during periods

398
00:18:49.440 --> 00:18:52.759
<v Speaker 8>of time of the regular season where he's chasing spin

399
00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:55.640
<v Speaker 8>outside of the strike zone. He's got to find a

400
00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:59.240
<v Speaker 8>way to get back to the Taoscar Hernandez that we

401
00:18:59.319 --> 00:19:02.279
<v Speaker 8>saw and do what he did the majority of the

402
00:19:02.359 --> 00:19:05.880
<v Speaker 8>year and do what the Dodgers' identity has been, and

403
00:19:05.920 --> 00:19:09.759
<v Speaker 8>that's not chase pitches outside of the strike zone. Last

404
00:19:09.799 --> 00:19:12.799
<v Speaker 8>game against Manaia, you know he's going to throw pitches

405
00:19:13.240 --> 00:19:16.119
<v Speaker 8>up in a way to entice you. The ta Oscar

406
00:19:16.160 --> 00:19:19.440
<v Speaker 8>Hernandez has got to be able to know his strike zone.

407
00:19:19.920 --> 00:19:21.119
<v Speaker 3>David is driven by Ford.

408
00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:23.440
<v Speaker 2>If there's one thing we liked, its choices, fine yours

409
00:19:23.480 --> 00:19:26.119
<v Speaker 2>with the Ford F one fifty gas hybrid all electric

410
00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:28.960
<v Speaker 2>tough this mark can only be called F one fifty.

411
00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:32.279
<v Speaker 2>Michael Kopek the opener, the first pitcher out of the gate. David,

412
00:19:32.319 --> 00:19:34.559
<v Speaker 2>you're surprised by the decision or is this something maybe

413
00:19:34.599 --> 00:19:35.160
<v Speaker 2>you saw coming.

414
00:19:35.640 --> 00:19:38.039
<v Speaker 8>Well, they had to pick somebody to be the first reliever,

415
00:19:38.200 --> 00:19:41.880
<v Speaker 8>and it's been usually Ryan Brazier or Anthony Banda, but

416
00:19:42.359 --> 00:19:45.519
<v Speaker 8>you know it's it's not a guarantee that Michael Kopek's

417
00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:49.680
<v Speaker 8>going to pitch perfectly. The first inning, Plus he struggled

418
00:19:49.720 --> 00:19:51.720
<v Speaker 8>with some command, and you kind of want a guy

419
00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:55.440
<v Speaker 8>in the first inning throwing strikes, So hopefully he can

420
00:19:55.519 --> 00:19:59.039
<v Speaker 8>throw strikes, because what Manny Machado was screaming at his

421
00:19:59.079 --> 00:20:02.799
<v Speaker 8>teammates is true. Michael Kopek has been missing up out

422
00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:05.319
<v Speaker 8>of the strike zone and the Dodgers need him to

423
00:20:05.440 --> 00:20:09.039
<v Speaker 8>throw strikes in that first inning and put a zero up. Also,

424
00:20:09.319 --> 00:20:12.319
<v Speaker 8>the thinking from the Dodgers side is that Kopek was

425
00:20:12.359 --> 00:20:15.400
<v Speaker 8>a starter, so out of all the choices they have,

426
00:20:15.759 --> 00:20:18.960
<v Speaker 8>Kopek obviously would be the guy that's best prepared.

427
00:20:19.319 --> 00:20:21.000
<v Speaker 2>That makes a lot of sense. David appreciate it. We'll

428

452
00:21:38.480 --> 00:21:40.960
<v Speaker 2>went to third on a Pedro Guerrero single, then scored

453
00:21:41.000 --> 00:21:43.480
<v Speaker 2>on a groundout. In the ninth, the game was still

454
00:21:43.559 --> 00:21:47.480
<v Speaker 2>tied at one. Montreal brought in there a Steve Rodgers

455
00:21:47.559 --> 00:21:50.359
<v Speaker 2>to pitch the ninth inning, and with two outs, he

456
00:21:50.400 --> 00:21:52.880
<v Speaker 2>made a mistake to our own Rick Monday.

457
00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:54.400
<v Speaker 3>Here's the three to one pitch.

458
00:21:54.519 --> 00:21:56.200
<v Speaker 4>Shan It swung on fly ball.

459
00:21:56.200 --> 00:21:59.119
<v Speaker 11>Center failed Dawson going back onto the warning tracked us

460
00:21:59.119 --> 00:21:59.799
<v Speaker 11>and at the wall.

461
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:03.400
<v Speaker 3>That ball is a home run. That ball is out

462
00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:03.880
<v Speaker 3>of here.

463
00:22:03.759 --> 00:22:06.079
<v Speaker 11>And a home run for Rick Monday and the Dodger

464
00:22:06.160 --> 00:22:09.640
<v Speaker 11>bench claires to congratulate Rick Monday has hit a two

465
00:22:09.680 --> 00:22:11.599
<v Speaker 11>out home run here in the ninth Then I got

466
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:15.200
<v Speaker 11>it appeared that Andre Dawson at rome as he went

467
00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:17.119
<v Speaker 11>back to the fence and he just flt ran out

468
00:22:17.119 --> 00:22:19.759
<v Speaker 11>of romas the ball clear of the fence at about

469
00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:25.160
<v Speaker 11>the three eighty five mark, a ninth inning home run

470
00:22:27.240 --> 00:22:29.640
<v Speaker 11>and the Dodgers have gone ahead two to one.

471
00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:33.400
<v Speaker 2>Ron Rosch to call Rick Monday a home run in

472
00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:36.440
<v Speaker 2>the ninth inning to give the Dodgers the lead. They

473
00:22:36.519 --> 00:22:38.920
<v Speaker 2>go on to win the game and advance to the

474
00:22:39.039 --> 00:22:42.319
<v Speaker 2>nineteen eighty one World Series and of course win it

475
00:22:42.359 --> 00:22:45.480
<v Speaker 2>all that year against the New York Yankees. It was

476
00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:48.200
<v Speaker 2>a Monday in which Rick Monday hit the home run

477
00:22:48.240 --> 00:22:51.440
<v Speaker 2>and forever known in Montreal as a Blue Monday. This

500
00:24:04.559 --> 00:24:08.240
<v Speaker 1>and World Series champion Dodger Rick Monday.

501
00:24:08.880 --> 00:24:11.599
<v Speaker 8>Rick, before we get into Game six, I got to

502
00:24:11.640 --> 00:24:14.920
<v Speaker 8>congratulate you on a big anniversary in Dodger history. You

503
00:24:15.000 --> 00:24:18.440
<v Speaker 8>were at the center of it yesterday in nineteen eighty

504
00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:20.839
<v Speaker 8>one to send the Dodgers to the World Series on

505
00:24:20.960 --> 00:24:24.640
<v Speaker 8>Blue Monday. And everybody is looking forward to a Dodgers

506
00:24:24.720 --> 00:24:26.319
<v Speaker 8>Yankees World Series this year.

507
00:24:26.440 --> 00:24:29.160
<v Speaker 5>Well that event was yesterday, and the song says, and

508
00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:34.279
<v Speaker 5>Yesterday's gone. So what the Dodgers need is today. And

509
00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:39.480
<v Speaker 5>you know, I as a disclaimer, we'll talk about it more.

510
00:24:40.039 --> 00:24:44.039
<v Speaker 5>I am not a bullpen by committee guy. But what

511
00:24:44.119 --> 00:24:46.319
<v Speaker 5>are the other options for this Dodger ball club. I mean,

512
00:24:46.319 --> 00:24:48.119
<v Speaker 5>that's one of the things that Dave Robertson you look

513
00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:50.920
<v Speaker 5>at the baseball operations. I mean, this is the best

514
00:24:50.920 --> 00:24:55.000
<v Speaker 5>solution right now today. But right now today, the Dodgers

515
00:24:55.039 --> 00:24:56.920
<v Speaker 5>need a victory because I tell you what the mindset

516
00:24:57.039 --> 00:24:59.119
<v Speaker 5>is in that first base dugout tonight with the New

517
00:24:59.200 --> 00:25:01.640
<v Speaker 5>York Mets. Everybody said, well, they have to win two

518
00:25:01.680 --> 00:25:02.039
<v Speaker 5>in a row.

519
00:25:02.039 --> 00:25:02.559
<v Speaker 8>No they don't.

520
00:25:02.920 --> 00:25:05.519
<v Speaker 5>They have to win one game that's tonight. That's the

521
00:25:05.519 --> 00:25:07.599
<v Speaker 5>mood said. How do I know that I've been there

522
00:25:08.799 --> 00:25:10.960
<v Speaker 5>from a mental standpoint the Mets will take the field

523
00:25:10.960 --> 00:25:14.160
<v Speaker 5>tonight saying we have to win one game and then

524
00:25:14.200 --> 00:25:16.960
<v Speaker 5>tomorrow night will throw it up for Grams. That's the

525
00:25:17.039 --> 00:25:19.440
<v Speaker 5>incentive that they have, and if the Mets get out

526
00:25:19.440 --> 00:25:22.000
<v Speaker 5>to an early start, this could be a handful for

527
00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:24.839
<v Speaker 5>this Dodger Bonklon. So Michael Kopek is going to be

528
00:25:24.920 --> 00:25:27.200
<v Speaker 5>the opener, if you will. How long he can go.

529
00:25:27.759 --> 00:25:30.920
<v Speaker 5>I don't know how long Dave Roberts can ride the pony.

530
00:25:31.279 --> 00:25:34.400
<v Speaker 5>As far as that end of it, we'll find out Copak.

531
00:25:34.480 --> 00:25:36.359
<v Speaker 5>By the way we start to look at it's something

532
00:25:36.400 --> 00:25:38.000
<v Speaker 5>that Stephen Nelson and I will look at a little

533
00:25:38.039 --> 00:25:42.839
<v Speaker 5>bit later on as well. Copek, he pitched last Wednesday

534
00:25:43.240 --> 00:25:45.960
<v Speaker 5>and that was just one inning, so I mean he's

535
00:25:46.039 --> 00:25:48.799
<v Speaker 5>rested everything else. But how does it go? Because this

536
00:25:48.920 --> 00:25:51.599
<v Speaker 5>is all hands on deck as far as Dave Roberts

537
00:25:51.640 --> 00:25:54.799
<v Speaker 5>and the Dodgers are concerned. That's exactly the mood in

538
00:25:54.839 --> 00:25:56.920
<v Speaker 5>the Mets dug out as well coming in at tonight's game.

539
00:25:57.039 --> 00:25:59.640
<v Speaker 8>And it makes sense the Dodgers thought process to start

540
00:25:59.680 --> 00:26:04.039
<v Speaker 8>Cope is because he was originally a starting pitcher and

541
00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:06.559
<v Speaker 8>he obviously knows what it takes to prepare.

542
00:26:06.279 --> 00:26:09.920
<v Speaker 5>To understand the routine as far as what time do

543
00:26:09.960 --> 00:26:11.799
<v Speaker 5>you go to the bullpen, what time do you start

544
00:26:11.839 --> 00:26:13.680
<v Speaker 5>to stretch the leagues out, what time do you see

545
00:26:13.680 --> 00:26:17.119
<v Speaker 5>the trainer to help you start some things here and there. So, yeah,

546
00:26:17.319 --> 00:26:20.240
<v Speaker 5>he's more familiar with that end of it. But the

547
00:26:20.279 --> 00:26:23.440
<v Speaker 5>problem with bullpen games is that you have to depend

548
00:26:23.519 --> 00:26:26.839
<v Speaker 5>upon five or six and maybe even more guys to

549
00:26:26.920 --> 00:26:29.240
<v Speaker 5>have good nights, all of them tonight.

550
00:26:29.319 --> 00:26:31.319
<v Speaker 8>And you have to start counting outs. Don't you rick

551
00:26:31.359 --> 00:26:33.440
<v Speaker 8>in a game like this, twenty seven outs? You got

552
00:26:33.480 --> 00:26:33.799
<v Speaker 8>to kiss.

553
00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:35.680
<v Speaker 5>Really, I think this really goes to something that I

554
00:26:35.720 --> 00:26:38.400
<v Speaker 5>was talking about the other day in New York. In

555
00:26:38.480 --> 00:26:43.279
<v Speaker 5>postseason in particular, you can underline this win each inning

556
00:26:43.480 --> 00:26:46.640
<v Speaker 5>and you're in pretty good shape the Dodgers talking about innings.

557
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:49.920
<v Speaker 5>Other than two innings so far in postseason played, they

558
00:26:49.960 --> 00:26:54.759
<v Speaker 5>have played defensively very well. From an offensive standpoint, I'm

559
00:26:54.759 --> 00:26:56.640
<v Speaker 5>a little concerned. You know, you got three guys in

560
00:26:56.640 --> 00:26:58.839
<v Speaker 5>the lineup that had not been swinging the back particularly

561
00:26:58.920 --> 00:27:02.119
<v Speaker 5>well at all, that being ta Oscar Hernandez will Smith.

562
00:27:02.160 --> 00:27:04.480
<v Speaker 5>Will Smith took a foul ball off of his glove

563
00:27:04.480 --> 00:27:06.720
<v Speaker 5>hand the other night in New York had to come

564
00:27:06.759 --> 00:27:08.839
<v Speaker 5>out of the game. And if you look at Chris Taylor,

565
00:27:08.880 --> 00:27:11.720
<v Speaker 5>he's had difficulties. So it needs something from those three guys,

566
00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:14.519
<v Speaker 5>because as we know, Freddy Freeman is not in the

567
00:27:14.559 --> 00:27:16.519
<v Speaker 5>starting lineup for tonight's game.

568
00:27:17.160 --> 00:27:19.640
<v Speaker 8>Will Smith has dropped down in the Dodger order to

569
00:27:19.880 --> 00:27:22.799
<v Speaker 8>the eighth spot tonight against Sean and Ya, And it

570
00:27:22.839 --> 00:27:25.759
<v Speaker 8>feels like the Dodgers are very confident Rick that they

571
00:27:25.839 --> 00:27:28.319
<v Speaker 8>will see Manya better than what they did in that

572
00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:29.319
<v Speaker 8>day game on Monday.

573
00:27:29.400 --> 00:27:32.319
<v Speaker 5>You know what I do. Like that sound in the background,

574
00:27:32.359 --> 00:27:35.119
<v Speaker 5>folks marine helicopters, So we're in good hands. Even the

575
00:27:35.119 --> 00:27:37.079
<v Speaker 5>Marines are circling Dodgers Stadium tonight.

576
00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:38.920
<v Speaker 8>Love it, Rick, Thanks a lot, and we'll check in

577
00:27:38.960 --> 00:27:39.839
<v Speaker 8>with you and Stephen Nelson.

578

<v Speaker 5>Will lot look forward to it, and I look forward

579
00:27:41.839 --> 00:27:44.559
<v Speaker 5>to you in the postgame talking to the players because

580
00:27:44.880 --> 00:27:46.720
<v Speaker 5>the Dodgers need to win tonight.

581
00:27:46.880 --> 00:27:49.519
<v Speaker 8>We all want Yankees Dodgers first time, so I don't care.

582
00:27:49.480 --> 00:27:51.799
<v Speaker 5>About any Yankees. We want Dodgers. It doesn't matter who

583
00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:53.400
<v Speaker 5>they play, but we know it's going to be the Yankees.

584

<v Speaker 2>It's Game six, so the National League Championship Series. Dodgers

602
00:28:51.160 --> 00:28:54.079
<v Speaker 2>still one win away from cashing in on going to

603
00:28:54.119 --> 00:28:57.279
<v Speaker 2>the World Series, going to matchup against the New York Yankees.

604
00:28:57.319 --> 00:29:00.759
<v Speaker 2>Bought first things first, they still need to clinch this NLCS.

605
00:29:00.920 --> 00:29:03.759
<v Speaker 2>Michael Kopek is the opener for the Dodgers Sham and

606
00:29:03.759 --> 00:29:06.000
<v Speaker 2>I the left hander will go for the Mets. Dodgers

607
00:29:06.000 --> 00:29:09.200
<v Speaker 2>Baseball's presented my Children's Hospital LA. When you need the

608
00:29:09.279 --> 00:29:11.240
<v Speaker 2>very best care for your child, to go to Children's

609
00:29:11.279 --> 00:29:15.480
<v Speaker 2>Hospital Los Angeles rank number one in California for pediatric care.

<v Speaker 2>Find the right doctor at CCHLA dot org.

611
00:29:20.720 --> 00:29:24.440
<v Speaker 1>And now what will likely be vast fielding insults from

612
00:29:24.480 --> 00:29:25.359
<v Speaker 1>a Dodger player.

613
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:26.680
<v Speaker 3>It's an engagement of endearment.

614
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:28.599
<v Speaker 1>This this high end touch.

615
00:29:30.680 --> 00:29:33.200
<v Speaker 8>Hey, quiet on the set. We got a real guy here.

616
00:29:33.640 --> 00:29:36.440
<v Speaker 8>That's the one and only Mariachi. Joe Kelly on a

617
00:29:36.519 --> 00:29:39.519
<v Speaker 8>bullpen day. Joe, thanks a lot for the time. Appreciate it.

618
00:29:40.559 --> 00:29:41.200
<v Speaker 9>A real person.

619
00:29:41.279 --> 00:29:41.519
<v Speaker 4>Thank you.

620
00:29:41.759 --> 00:29:44.440
<v Speaker 9>I appreciate you having me on. It's the least I

621
00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:47.519
<v Speaker 9>could bring to the team right now, besides positive vibes,

622
00:29:47.839 --> 00:29:49.759
<v Speaker 9>you know, give them the voice confidence and you know

623
00:29:49.799 --> 00:29:51.720
<v Speaker 9>I'm gonna be down there in the pen tonight with them.

624
00:29:51.759 --> 00:29:52.000
<v Speaker 5>I am.

625
00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:56.440
<v Speaker 9>Every game. It's been fun to watch obviously this postseason

626
00:29:56.559 --> 00:29:59.400
<v Speaker 9>right obviously I wish I was involved in a part

627
00:29:59.440 --> 00:30:02.720
<v Speaker 9>of it, but you know, I like to try to

628
00:30:02.759 --> 00:30:04.440
<v Speaker 9>help the team in any way I can, whether it's

629
00:30:05.160 --> 00:30:08.240
<v Speaker 9>you know, some during San Diego is trying to look

630
00:30:08.279 --> 00:30:10.640
<v Speaker 9>at their pictures see who their tendencies are. So it's

631
00:30:10.680 --> 00:30:14.359
<v Speaker 9>just been things here and there. I wouldn't say, obviously

632
00:30:15.359 --> 00:30:18.359
<v Speaker 9>any type of coaching, but I'm just here to bring

633
00:30:18.440 --> 00:30:21.440
<v Speaker 9>the light the more fun of the baseball aspect during

634
00:30:21.559 --> 00:30:22.640
<v Speaker 9>obviously a serious time.

635
00:30:23.160 --> 00:30:25.680
<v Speaker 8>What's it like in a game like this, not only

636
00:30:25.759 --> 00:30:28.400
<v Speaker 8>for Joe Kelly, but all those guys in that bullpen.

637
00:30:28.599 --> 00:30:31.079
<v Speaker 8>What's the mood and how different is it than a

638
00:30:31.200 --> 00:30:31.799
<v Speaker 8>normal game.

639
00:30:33.720 --> 00:30:37.039
<v Speaker 9>I think we enjoy it more obviously when you're having

640
00:30:37.240 --> 00:30:44.759
<v Speaker 9>a regular start, right the score, the situation, the length

641
00:30:44.839 --> 00:30:46.720
<v Speaker 9>of your start of that night kind of dictates the

642
00:30:46.799 --> 00:30:50.160
<v Speaker 9>game in one of these games. For a boven game,

643
00:30:50.240 --> 00:30:52.920
<v Speaker 9>knowing that you're gonna be a part of it at

644
00:30:52.960 --> 00:30:54.799
<v Speaker 9>some point, you kind of know your role throughout the day,

645
00:30:55.039 --> 00:30:59.240
<v Speaker 9>throughout the evening. You know, score doesn't dictate it as

646
00:30:59.359 --> 00:31:01.359
<v Speaker 9>much because the same guys will throw no matter what.

647
00:31:01.480 --> 00:31:02.880
<v Speaker 9>You know, maybe just in a different order or a

648
00:31:02.920 --> 00:31:05.920
<v Speaker 9>different time, but knowing you're gonna be able to pitch

649
00:31:05.960 --> 00:31:09.480
<v Speaker 9>that day and play and be a big role, I

650
00:31:09.559 --> 00:31:11.799
<v Speaker 9>think the boys definitely enjoyed a little bit more. Obviously,

651
00:31:12.519 --> 00:31:15.160
<v Speaker 9>if you're doing throughout the season, you know every fourth game,

652
00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:18.720
<v Speaker 9>you get tired, but there's there's there's no complaining when

653
00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:19.480
<v Speaker 9>it's a playoff game.

654
00:31:20.039 --> 00:31:23.559
<v Speaker 8>It feels like not only yourself, but other guys in

655
00:31:23.640 --> 00:31:27.079
<v Speaker 8>that bullpen have described those relief pitchers as a group

656
00:31:27.119 --> 00:31:30.799
<v Speaker 8>of dogs that really want in badly? Have you ever

657
00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:32.240
<v Speaker 8>been part of a bullpen like that?

658
00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:40.240
<v Speaker 9>Every years Divin Obviously the talent you have sometimes could

659
00:31:40.240 --> 00:31:43.480
<v Speaker 9>match the talent we have here. But you know, when

660
00:31:43.519 --> 00:31:47.920
<v Speaker 9>you bring the quality of character and plus talent plus

661
00:31:48.079 --> 00:31:52.359
<v Speaker 9>friendships on and off the field, it's kind of irreplaceable.

662
00:31:53.839 --> 00:31:54.000
<v Speaker 1>You know.

663
00:31:54.039 --> 00:31:56.319
<v Speaker 9>It's one of those things where it's everyone says that

664
00:31:56.359 --> 00:31:58.720
<v Speaker 9>the teammates said, they're their brothers or you know, they're

665
00:31:59.359 --> 00:32:02.039
<v Speaker 9>they're all there. Everyone likes each other. But down in

666
00:32:02.119 --> 00:32:05.880
<v Speaker 9>our bullpen we have that. Plus we have the love

667
00:32:05.960 --> 00:32:09.640
<v Speaker 9>from the position players, the starters. Usually bullpen guys are

668
00:32:09.720 --> 00:32:11.680
<v Speaker 9>kind of isolated, right, and then the playoffs, you know

669
00:32:11.759 --> 00:32:14.160
<v Speaker 9>everyone recognizes them, oh wow, like they help us win.

670
00:32:14.839 --> 00:32:16.880
<v Speaker 9>But from day one here in this organization, this year,

671
00:32:16.920 --> 00:32:19.559
<v Speaker 9>this spring training, we've kind of been recognized throughout the

672
00:32:19.599 --> 00:32:22.200
<v Speaker 9>whole season. Our teammates have appreciated it. You know, you

673
00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:25.160
<v Speaker 9>I've been on teams where you know, you could do

674
00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:27.440
<v Speaker 9>your job and like you said, break records, throw thirty

675
00:32:27.480 --> 00:32:30.440
<v Speaker 9>three scorers in the postseason, and you know, pushing players

676
00:32:31.200 --> 00:32:34.160
<v Speaker 9>could just shower and go home. Here it's it's embraced.

677
00:32:34.440 --> 00:32:37.519
<v Speaker 8>Joe Kelly is our guest, obviously tough for him to watch,

678
00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:41.000
<v Speaker 8>but certainly being involved to help his teammates during this

679
00:32:41.160 --> 00:32:44.200
<v Speaker 8>postseason run. How about the offense, Joe, I mean, these

680
00:32:44.240 --> 00:32:46.519
<v Speaker 8>guys have really started to come together. Can you see

681
00:32:46.599 --> 00:32:49.759
<v Speaker 8>from your vantage point how unselfish they're at bats are

682
00:32:49.799 --> 00:32:51.079
<v Speaker 8>and how they're playing for each other.

683
00:32:52.039 --> 00:32:56.119
<v Speaker 9>They've been there's times where they would say that they've

684
00:32:57.359 --> 00:32:59.359
<v Speaker 9>throughout the whole entire season right now the postseason where

685
00:32:59.359 --> 00:33:01.440
<v Speaker 9>it's like, man, that's often to day, or we threw

686
00:33:01.440 --> 00:33:03.640
<v Speaker 9>away at bats after the fifth or after a big lead,

687
00:33:03.720 --> 00:33:05.880
<v Speaker 9>we're down. It's easy to give up kind of at

688
00:33:05.920 --> 00:33:08.200
<v Speaker 9>bats and turn into a self as player. But the

689
00:33:08.279 --> 00:33:10.599
<v Speaker 9>fight that our guys have is has been pretty cool

690
00:33:10.640 --> 00:33:14.039
<v Speaker 9>to watch. You know, Yeah you might strike out, yeah

691
00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:15.200
<v Speaker 9>you might pop up with the guy in the third

692
00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:19.799
<v Speaker 9>lesson two, but the consistency throughout our lineup from top

693
00:33:19.839 --> 00:33:22.400
<v Speaker 9>to bottom of the focus and the intensity of you know,

694
00:33:22.519 --> 00:33:25.440
<v Speaker 9>trying to one make a picture work and number two,

695
00:33:25.480 --> 00:33:28.599
<v Speaker 9>when they throw a strike, you know do damage. You know,

696
00:33:28.640 --> 00:33:30.960
<v Speaker 9>because you can throw, you get behind the counts, walk guys,

697
00:33:31.720 --> 00:33:33.759
<v Speaker 9>and then some guy could jump ship and you get

698
00:33:33.799 --> 00:33:35.839
<v Speaker 9>a first pitch double play and it ruins the whole offense.

699
00:33:35.920 --> 00:33:39.079
<v Speaker 9>Right and right now, we're not doing that. We're still

700
00:33:39.079 --> 00:33:41.759
<v Speaker 9>taking pitches. We're still trying to, you know, fight with

701
00:33:41.799 --> 00:33:43.880
<v Speaker 9>two strikes. You know, throughout the year you might see

702
00:33:44.000 --> 00:33:45.880
<v Speaker 9>guys one, two and you know, swinging for the fence,

703
00:33:45.920 --> 00:33:48.519
<v Speaker 9>trying to strike out. And it's been kind of a

704
00:33:48.599 --> 00:33:52.200
<v Speaker 9>different kind of mentality where you know, it might be

705
00:33:52.279 --> 00:33:54.240
<v Speaker 9>down six runs at this point, but we'll get guys

706
00:33:54.279 --> 00:33:56.279
<v Speaker 9>on first and second and you know we're still gonna

707
00:33:56.279 --> 00:33:58.000
<v Speaker 9>working at bat. If I get out, I get out.

708
00:33:58.039 --> 00:34:00.200
<v Speaker 9>But usually you see other teams we would just swing

709
00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:01.759
<v Speaker 9>first pitch and get out and you know, kind of

710
00:34:01.799 --> 00:34:05.119
<v Speaker 9>kill the inning. So it's been impressive to watch. It's

711
00:34:05.160 --> 00:34:07.559
<v Speaker 9>hard to do as a player, obviously, when you're trying

712
00:34:07.559 --> 00:34:10.239
<v Speaker 9>to win a World Series or a championship. It's easy

713
00:34:10.280 --> 00:34:13.079
<v Speaker 9>to play for your teammates. But I think we've been

714
00:34:13.119 --> 00:34:15.559
<v Speaker 9>doing it, you know a little bit before the playoffs

715
00:34:15.559 --> 00:34:17.559
<v Speaker 9>even started, So we've been in that mindset.

716
00:34:18.280 --> 00:34:20.559
<v Speaker 8>Joe, love catching up with you. You know, the city

717
00:34:20.639 --> 00:34:23.280
<v Speaker 8>loves you, and obviously I know it hurts not being

718
00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:25.400
<v Speaker 8>part of this, but it sounds like you're trying to

719
00:34:25.480 --> 00:34:28.159
<v Speaker 8>do everything you can do help your team out because

720
00:34:28.440 --> 00:34:30.639
<v Speaker 8>you obviously are one of the best teammates out there.

721
00:34:30.760 --> 00:34:33.880
<v Speaker 8>So thanks a lot for the time. And baseball isn't boring.

722

00:36:00.960 --> 00:36:03.559

763
00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:25.840
<v Speaker 2>long will we go? While only once did he go

781
00:37:21.760 --> 00:37:23.159
<v Speaker 2>Rick Monday, guys.

782
00:37:23.360 --> 00:37:26.239
<v Speaker 4>Tim Kates, the Dodgers trying to make more franchise history

783
00:37:26.440 --> 00:37:30.440
<v Speaker 4>on a date Moll on which they've made history before.

784
00:37:30.800 --> 00:37:34.039
<v Speaker 4>You think about nineteen eighty eight, it was on October

785
00:37:34.119 --> 00:37:37.679
<v Speaker 4>twentieth of that year, behind a complete game from the

786
00:37:37.760 --> 00:37:41.559
<v Speaker 4>Bulldog Oral Herscheiser, they won the eighty eight Fall Classic.

787
00:37:41.719 --> 00:37:44.480
<v Speaker 4>You think back to twenty eighteen Game seven of the

788
00:37:44.559 --> 00:37:48.039
<v Speaker 4>Championship Series, the Dodgers and Brewers and Cody Bellinger had

789
00:37:48.079 --> 00:37:50.599
<v Speaker 4>a big performance. Twenty twenty Game one of the World

790
00:37:50.679 --> 00:37:54.360
<v Speaker 4>Series against the Rays, the Dodgers won that. Well. Here

791
00:37:54.400 --> 00:37:56.880
<v Speaker 4>in twenty twenty four, they are one win away from

792
00:37:56.960 --> 00:37:59.400
<v Speaker 4>getting back to the World Series, but there is still

793
00:37:59.559 --> 00:38:03.440
<v Speaker 4>some angst because of what happened in Game five in

794
00:38:03.559 --> 00:38:05.599
<v Speaker 4>New York. The Mets just bludging the Dodgers. And then

795
00:38:05.639 --> 00:38:07.559
<v Speaker 4>here in game six you got a bullpend game in

796
00:38:07.599 --> 00:38:11.000
<v Speaker 4>Sean and Iah So will they make more positive history tonight?

797
00:38:11.079 --> 00:38:11.559
<v Speaker 4>What do you think?

798
00:38:11.800 --> 00:38:15.400
<v Speaker 5>Well, first of all, if the Dodgers offensively, you're gonna

799
00:38:15.400 --> 00:38:17.119
<v Speaker 5>do something about Sean and Iah. They have to take

800
00:38:17.159 --> 00:38:19.760
<v Speaker 5>on a different approach than they had the first time up.

801
00:38:19.800 --> 00:38:21.840
<v Speaker 5>Oh Maaniah walked a lot of batterers, but he also

802
00:38:21.920 --> 00:38:26.360
<v Speaker 5>struck out seven in that five inning workload that he had.

803
00:38:26.760 --> 00:38:29.199
<v Speaker 5>So Mania is a different guy than what we have

804
00:38:29.360 --> 00:38:32.000
<v Speaker 5>seen in the past because he changed the arming. We

805
00:38:32.079 --> 00:38:34.440
<v Speaker 5>talked about it before he had the the start here.

806
00:38:34.559 --> 00:38:38.519
<v Speaker 5>So the Dodgers need to get back together and start

807
00:38:38.599 --> 00:38:41.159
<v Speaker 5>to gang up on pitchers at the same time, That's

808
00:38:41.199 --> 00:38:43.360
<v Speaker 5>exactly what the Mets are going to do and try

809
00:38:43.400 --> 00:38:45.960
<v Speaker 5>and do against Michael Kopec and company because a lot

810
00:38:46.000 --> 00:38:48.000
<v Speaker 5>of people are going to be follow him. The Mets

811
00:38:48.039 --> 00:38:50.760
<v Speaker 5>have had a few days now, Stephen to kind of

812
00:38:50.920 --> 00:38:54.039
<v Speaker 5>embellish upon that good feeling they had in winning a

813
00:38:54.280 --> 00:38:56.639
<v Speaker 5>must win game in New York to bring this series

814
00:38:56.719 --> 00:38:57.400
<v Speaker 5>back to LA.

815
00:38:57.440 --> 00:38:59.400
<v Speaker 4>And they have positive vibes in their lineup. Some guys

816
00:38:59.440 --> 00:39:03.719
<v Speaker 4>who were dorm Pete Alonzo, Francisco Alvarez have erupted in

817
00:39:03.760 --> 00:39:06.119
<v Speaker 4>the last game, Starling Marte the last three games. Who's

818
00:39:06.199 --> 00:39:08.519
<v Speaker 4>on some sort of tear. Of course, you're always wary

819
00:39:08.559 --> 00:39:10.920
<v Speaker 4>of Lindor at the top. So we're all looking at

820
00:39:10.960 --> 00:39:13.760
<v Speaker 4>that first inning, the zero from Michael Kopek and allowed

821
00:39:13.880 --> 00:39:15.920
<v Speaker 4>start for the Dodgers against Sean and I. That is

822
00:39:16.000 --> 00:39:18.800
<v Speaker 4>the hope in their game plan. Can they execute it?

823
00:39:18.840 --> 00:39:21.239
<v Speaker 4>First pitch coming up shortly from Dodgers Stadium.

824
00:39:21.360 --> 00:39:23.920
<v Speaker 3>All right, first pitch is next. Are you ready, Dodger fans?

825
00:39:23.960 --> 00:39:24.320
<v Speaker 7>Here we go.

826
00:39:24.599 --> 00:39:28.679
<v Speaker 2>Game six of the NLCS is next. Michael Kopek on

827
00:39:28.760 --> 00:39:31.199
<v Speaker 2>the mound. When we return, I'm Tim Katz has been
