It was a wild 47 00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:19.400 back and forth game. The Rockies jumped out to a 48 00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:21.680 one to nothing lead, then they jumped out to a 49 00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:24.840 two to nothing lead.

The Rockies would answer back in the 70 00:03:25.719 --> 00:03:27.879 bottom of the fifth Dodgers would counter in the top 71 00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:31.400 of the sixth show Hey O'tani a two run home run, 72 00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:34.080 his twenty seventh of the season.

Then they scored three 75 00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:41.759 more in the eighth. They cut it to an eight 76 00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:45.680 seven Dodgers lead. Things getting a little tight at Corus 77 00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:47.599 Field in Denver until the ninth inning. 78 00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:50.719 Ta Oscar Hernandez a huge insurance. 79 00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:53.159 Run Dodgers in one run games this year of fourteen 80 00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:57.560 to nine, and tay Oscar belts went deep to left 81 00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:00.319 center field, of the deepest part of the yard, gonna 82 00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:00.759 get down and. 83 00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:01.479 Roll to the wall. 84 00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:05.240 Already the third ist Moncie, He's gonna head home and 85 00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:08.599 he will score.

Welcome to 98 00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:48.439 Denver in baseball in the Mile High City, and they're 99 00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:50.959 gonna do it again tonight, game two of his three games, 100 00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:54.439 said Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the mound, first pitch at five 101 00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:56.759 forty with more, let's head out to the Kalputa Motors 102 00:04:56.800 --> 00:04:59.680 Broadcast booth as we welcome in Tim Neffertt and Rick Monday. 103 00:04:59.720 --> 00:04:59.920 Guys. 104 00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:01.120 Thank you very much. 105 00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:01.399 Tim. 106 00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:03.120 This is going to be a pleasant night here in 107 00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:06.199 the Mile High City. Blue skies and some white puffy 108 00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:08.759 clouds up above cors Field right now, but it should 109 00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:12.439 be a really really pleasant June evening here in Denver 110 00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:16.120 as the Dodgers and the Rockies get set for Game 111 00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:18.920 two of this three game series. Last night, the Dodgers 112 00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:23.519 winning nine to seven. That's a typical game here in Colorado. 113 00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:26.600 There's usually a lot of run scored in this Ballpark, 114 00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:29.600 and they have been over time, but the Dodgers have 115 00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:31.720 done some good damage here. You go back to the 116 00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:34.279 twenty ninth of June of twenty twenty two. The last 117 00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:37.639 twenty games here at Corsfield, the Dodgers have won fifteen 118 00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:40.439 of them and they're looking to win another one here tonight. 119 00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:43.639 Yoshinobu Yamamoto six and six with a two seven six 120 00:05:43.720 --> 00:05:47.680 earned run average, will take on Chase Dolander. Dolander two 121 00:05:47.720 --> 00:05:51.000 and seven, the rookie with a six to nineteen ERA, 122 00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:54.920 and he's been tested early in his rookie season and 123 00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:59.319 mo the Dodgers since the last twenty games have averaged 124 00:05:59.639 --> 00:06:02.879 seven one point seven runs a game here. They lead 125 00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:06.600 major League Baseball almost six runs a game, and it 126 00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:10.360 seems like on most nights runs aren't a problem, especially 127 00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:11.720 when they come here to Colorado, and. 128 00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:15.360 We're going to find out tonight because for Yamamoto, in 129 00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:17.839 games that he has pitched, the doctors have not given 130 00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:20.560 him a great number of runs. So it's Dodger Ball 131 00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:23.000 Club now. With that victory last night, they have spent 132 00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:25.959 sixty four days in first place in the Western Division. 133 00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:27.680 They start today four and a half in front of 134 00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:29.839 San Francisco five and a half in front of the 135 00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:34.639 sandigop Andres, but winning eight of ten, they have averaged well, 136 00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:37.079 they've averaged six point eight runs a ball game. That's 137 00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:39.360 not been the case when Yamamoto has been on the bounds. 138 00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:41.000 So they need to kick it into gear tonight. 139 00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:43.000 Seems like tonight's the night that they're going to get 140 00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:43.759 him some runs. 141 00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:46.120 Might as well be. And for Michael Confordo kick it 142 00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:48.720 into gear last night as he had a double his 143 00:06:48.839 --> 00:06:51.040 first at bat in the three run home run, hit 144 00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:54.720 it in the fourth inning. And for Confordo, how much 145 00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:57.120 confidence now does he have? He changed the bat model. 146 00:06:57.160 --> 00:06:59.399 He says, it's better balance for him. He's opened up 147 00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:01.959 the stance, little bit of a late kick and hopefully 148 00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:04.560 last night is just the signs of good things to 149 00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:05.800 come for Michael Conforto. 150 00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:09.120 Dalton Rushing doing the catching tonight. Dave Roberts thought this 151 00:07:09.279 --> 00:07:11.800 was a better spot for him in this road trip, 152 00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:13.839 and he's going to catch twice on the road trip. 153 00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:16.480 I didn't really want him catching the day game tomorrow. 154 00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:18.120 I thought Will Smith would be a better fit for 155 00:07:18.199 --> 00:07:21.319 the day game tomorrow, and so he catches Yamamoto tonight. 156 00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:23.639 I caught up with Dalton just a little while ago, 157 00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:27.720 and he's looking forward to seeing the split of Yamamoto tonight, 158 00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:30.480 trying to catch it here. But also he's hit at 159 00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:33.560 altitude before. Around the Pacific Coast League. There are cities 160 00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:37.319 like you know, Albuquerque and Las Vegas that have high altitude, 161 00:07:37.399 --> 00:07:41.199 so he's accustomed to that, and he's hoping that Yamamoto 162 00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:43.759 has a good curve ball tonight. But Dalton rushing gets 163 00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:45.720 the start. He's excited to swing the bat in this part. 164 00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:48.560 He's also aware of the fact that at altitude, and 165 00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:51.360 especially when it's warm, you must hydrate and you can't 166 00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:53.920 just kick it into gear that day. Dodgers have been 167 00:07:54.079 --> 00:07:56.680 kicking in the gear a few days even prior to 168 00:07:56.759 --> 00:07:59.600 this trip. It's very very important. It's going to be warm, 169 00:07:59.600 --> 00:08:01.879 Tomorrow's going to be pleasant this evening, but hopefully the 170 00:08:01.959 --> 00:08:04.879 Dodgers' offense is going to be very unpleasant for the Rockies. 171 00:08:04.920 --> 00:08:08.199 Pitching sho Hey O'tani another home run against the Rockies. 172 00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:13.279 In his last thirteen games against the Rockies, he has 173 00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:14.040 eight home runs. 174 00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:16.399 Well. There's also a record that was said last night 175 00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:18.319 by Otani that was overlooked by a lot of people. 176 00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:20.519 He had his twenty seventh home run, two run blasts 177 00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:23.199 in the sixth inning. That is a Major League record 178 00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:25.839 now for the most home runs by a leadoff hitter 179 00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:29.279 in the team's first eighty games of a regular season. 180 00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:33.000 The prior holder of the record Brady Anderson, who hit 181 00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:35.840 twenty six in the first eighty games. That was in 182 00:08:36.039 --> 00:08:37.120 nineteen ninety six. 183 00:08:37.559 --> 00:08:40.039 And also it was his three hundredth professional home run. 184 00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:42.879 He had forty eight while in Japan, two hundred and 185 00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:45.799 fifty two now in the United States, so he's got 186 00:08:45.799 --> 00:08:48.159 three hundred as a professional, So it was a milestone 187 00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:51.519 home run for him as well. Yoshinobo Yamamoto looking for 188 00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:55.519 a win here in Colorado tonight. Chase Dolander, the rookie 189 00:08:55.600 --> 00:08:58.360 right hander.

He's kind of gotten 240 00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:27.200 a little bit of a rut right now. Four starts 241 00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:29.159 in the month of June, he's zero in three with 242 00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:30.519 an era north of five. 243 00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:34.000 Yeah, you know, sometimes just want to turn the page 244 00:11:34.120 --> 00:11:35.840 on a month, and right now it feels like I 245 00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:38.879 have to imagine for him, June's just not his month 246 00:11:38.960 --> 00:11:41.200 at the moment. But even with talking to. 247 00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:43.840 Dave Roberts, he does he's been very adamant in his 248 00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:45.200 last really. 249 00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:48.279 The last two outings that he's due for a good start. 250 00:11:48.399 --> 00:11:51.039 Of course, it's getting back to you being Yoshinobu, and 251 00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:54.559 obviously he's a player who has such incredible command, and 252 00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:57.360 so he has felt what's been missing, especially this month 253 00:11:57.440 --> 00:11:59.879 has just been he's been a little bit too five, 254 00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:03.399 So let me think mechanical. He says that he thinks 255 00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:05.679 it's more of a mindset because all of the misses 256 00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:09.279 are consistent misses, they're kind of missing that same spot. 257 00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:11.559 So if he can kind of just kind of get 258 00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:14.639 back to really being himself and not trying to be 259 00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:17.840 too fine, then he does believe that he'll kind of 260 00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:20.840 correct some of those things, and actually said that Mark 261 00:12:20.919 --> 00:12:24.600 Pryor had a conversation with him recently, so hopefully, you know, 262 00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:28.960 it will that conversation will translate to on the matter, 263 00:12:29.080 --> 00:12:30.559 we're seeing and the results today. 264 00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:31.960 But obviously it's going. 265 00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:33.960 To be past pitching near but he has the stuff 266 00:12:34.039 --> 00:12:36.200 to control the strike zone, and you know, he's going 267 00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:38.240 up against the team that does seem to have a 268 00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:40.240 little bit more swing and miss, and so hopefully he 269 00:12:40.320 --> 00:12:43.240 can use that to find different ways to get to 270 00:12:43.440 --> 00:12:45.000 the rocky sick hitters. 271 00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:49.600 Behind the plane. No, Will Smith, Dalton Rushing gets the 272 00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:50.519 start today. 273 00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:54.000 Exactly, and so first and foremost, which is was Will Smith. 274 00:12:54.080 --> 00:12:55.960 Dave Robert said yesterday that he only wanted to play 275 00:12:56.000 --> 00:12:59.320 two of three here, and you know it tomorrow being 276 00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:02.519 a day game. Tomorrow, Bank Kershaw start with a force 277 00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:05.279 person having eight strikeouts to three thousand, so it made 278 00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:07.919 sense for will Smith to catch him for tomorrow. But 279 00:13:08.360 --> 00:13:10.720 if we go back to when Dalton was first called up, 280 00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:14.080 they had partnered Dalton with Kershaw and Dave rob was 281 00:13:14.120 --> 00:13:15.399 just saying he didn't want to put him with Yo 282 00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:18.240 Chinobu at that point, just because some of Yoshi's pitches 283 00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:21.039 that splitter out drops a little bit more nuances to it. 284 00:13:21.200 --> 00:13:24.919 Things like that can be sometimes challenging. But he feels 285 00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:27.000 really good as to where Dalton is at right now. 286 00:13:27.159 --> 00:13:30.159 Dalton is a competitor, a professional. He has developed some 287 00:13:30.279 --> 00:13:34.080 really good relationships with the pitchers and so we've seen 288 00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:37.000 him evolve behind the plate and being where. 289 00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:38.679 The Dodgers have projected. 290 00:13:38.360 --> 00:13:40.519 Him to be at this spot. So he's excited to 291 00:13:40.559 --> 00:13:43.960 see Dalton catching Yoshino with seeing them work together. So 292 00:13:44.080 --> 00:13:45.559 it'll be it should be a fun one. And then 293 00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:47.600 also just for Dalton to continue to have some big 294 00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:50.600 moments offensively and so hopefully we know a big thing 295 00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:53.240 when it comes to run. Support with Yoshinobu is not 296 00:13:53.639 --> 00:13:56.559 ideal at the moment, but hopefully today thinks can be 297 00:13:56.600 --> 00:13:58.720 different and the Dodgers can get him some support early. 298 00:13:58.879 --> 00:14:03.559 Get him some support, get him a w We'll check 299 00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:04.399 in with you after the game. 300 00:14:04.480 --> 00:14:07.039 Still to come here Marongo Casino, Dodgers on deck.

Lead you 304 00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:17.840 up to Dodgers and Rockies. First bitch from Denver on 305 00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:20.200 this Wednesday's at five forty.

Yoshinoba 312 00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:48.840 Yamamoto and Chase dolaner the pitching matchup, first pitch of 313 00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:49.399 five forty. 314 00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:54.519 This is the LA Dodgers Injury Report. 315 00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:56.919 Is it a by UCLA Healthy Official medical partner of 316 00:14:56.960 --> 00:14:59.639 the Los Angeles Dodgers. Tony Gonsoon on the Iel Tyler 317 00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:02.320 Glass now on the I L. Blake Snell on the 318 00:15:02.399 --> 00:15:04.720 I L. You know I threw a bullpen session yesterday. 319 00:15:04.960 --> 00:15:07.360 Kind of feels like he's hopefully turned the page and 320 00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:09.679 is back on track to making a return to the 321 00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:11.720 Dodgers at some point after the All Star break. 322 00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:13.440 Roki Sasaki on the I L. 323 00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:16.159 Luis Garcia going to join this Dodgers team here shortly 324 00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:19.120 and get back into that Dodgers bullpen. All right, speaking 325 00:15:19.120 --> 00:15:20.679 of back, let's get back out to Denver and check 326 00:15:20.679 --> 00:15:21.559 out the Dodger skipper. 327 00:15:23.679 --> 00:15:24.559 The questions for Dave. 328 00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:26.720 Dave, can you just describe Dave. 329 00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:29.159 Can you talk about the pressure in. 330 00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:31.240 The dugouts with Dave Roberts. 331 00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:36.120 Obviously, I have high expectations for Yoshinobu, and I think 332 00:15:36.279 --> 00:15:41.039 for me, as a guy who sees him as a 333 00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:46.360 command guy, being too fine and I think we've talked 334 00:15:46.360 --> 00:15:49.919 about that quite a bit. Starting count one and zero 335 00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:57.000 versus getting ahead one and so this is, uh, you know, 336 00:15:57.679 --> 00:15:59.440 this is a team that's going to swing the bats. 337 00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:04.399 It's a ballpark that you can't give up free passes, 338 00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:08.080 free bases, get behind and counts, and so I think 339 00:16:08.159 --> 00:16:12.320 for me, if he's getting strike one, it's going to 340 00:16:12.360 --> 00:16:14.279 be a really good night and efficient night. 341 00:16:14.600 --> 00:16:16.639 You talk about being too fine, is there something that 342 00:16:16.759 --> 00:16:18.799 you're looking outside of getting strike one? Of course, but 343 00:16:19.000 --> 00:16:21.399 just that you're seeing from him that's showing that he's 344 00:16:21.440 --> 00:16:24.320 trying to be too fine, and just how he's executing 345 00:16:24.360 --> 00:16:24.799 his pitches. 346 00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:29.440 I just think that it's just the consistency of being 347 00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:33.879 a few inches off that first pitch, and so it's 348 00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:37.120 not a mechanical I would almost argue it's more of 349 00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:41.080 a mindset about trying to be a little bit too fine, 350 00:16:42.159 --> 00:16:45.120 and the misses are consistent, so they're not bad. Misses, 351 00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:48.200 but we want to get ahead, so again I think 352 00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:51.679 for me is let's just get ahead tonight and use 353 00:16:51.759 --> 00:16:54.200 our pitch mix and should be a good knight. 354 00:16:54.480 --> 00:16:57.399 All right, Hopefully it is a good night for Yoshi Yamamoto. 355 00:16:57.480 --> 00:16:59.759 That's Dave Roberts down the dug out. While we continue here, 356 00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:02.320 I'm Wrongo Casino Dodgers on deck. We will check in 357 00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:05.079 with the David Basse as we lead you up to 358 00:17:05.160 --> 00:17:08.640 first bitch Dodgers and Rockies from Denver.

Yoshinobi. I'm Amoto on 363 00:17:27.319 --> 00:17:28.160 the mound from Denver. 364 00:17:28.240 --> 00:17:32.960 First pitch of five forty, joining Tim Kates on Dodgers 365 00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:33.480 on deck. 366 00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:35.319 I accept everybody for who they are. 367 00:17:35.440 --> 00:17:39.559 This is Dodger inside there, David Basse, all right. 368 00:17:39.559 --> 00:17:43.920 DV the DFH the dead Fish HANDSHAKEE. 369 00:17:44.119 --> 00:17:47.279 It worked again for you, David Well. 370 00:17:47.319 --> 00:17:48.759 I worked for Michael Conforto. 371 00:17:49.119 --> 00:17:52.480 Uh, he was our pregame guest yesterday and obviously you know, 372 00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:55.240 I felt bad for the guy. He's been struggling all 373 00:17:55.359 --> 00:17:58.039 season long, so you know, I pulled out me and 374 00:17:58.200 --> 00:18:02.440 JD Martinez his handshake that got America's DH rolling a 375 00:18:02.519 --> 00:18:05.519 couple of years ago, and it worked for Michael Confordo 376 00:18:05.680 --> 00:18:08.839 yesterday as well. I saw Confordo in the clubhouse today 377 00:18:09.279 --> 00:18:12.200 on the couch. I was waiting for him to approach me, 378 00:18:12.359 --> 00:18:15.119 but he never approached me. So he does not have 379 00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:19.359 the dead fish handshake today. But what he has is 380 00:18:19.480 --> 00:18:23.359 a newly fitted baseball bat, and that may be more 381 00:18:23.519 --> 00:18:25.720 of the reason why he succeeded yesterday. 382 00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:28.160 He told me before the interview. 383 00:18:27.839 --> 00:18:30.559 That he did get fitted with a new baseball bat, 384 00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:33.079 and it's a little bit lighter than the one he's 385 00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:37.480 been using this season. Remember, Confordo has tamp you know, 386 00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:41.880 a toyed with different bats all season long, including using 387 00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:45.480 a torpedo bat. So the Dodgers hooked him up to 388 00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:48.559 the technology just like you would for a golf club 389 00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:52.039 and came up with a perfectly fitted bat for him 390 00:18:52.519 --> 00:18:54.559 in the here and now. And the here and now 391 00:18:54.799 --> 00:18:57.839 is Confordo not being able to catch up to fastballs, 392 00:18:57.920 --> 00:19:01.079 so yesterday he looked a lot better we'll see whether 393 00:19:01.240 --> 00:19:03.519 or not the magic bat works. 394 00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:06.079 Tonight, David is brought to you by the twenty twenty 395 00:19:06.119 --> 00:19:09.440 five Ford f one fifty from California's best selling truck brand. 396 00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:10.960 It is time to see Ford in a new light. 397 00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:13.920 Take advantage of employee pricing through the end of June. 398 00:19:14.480 --> 00:19:14.920 Down on the. 399 00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:18.279 Farm in Okay, see David. Emmitt Sheen had himself a. 400 00:19:18.359 --> 00:19:20.519 Day, he really did. 401 00:19:20.839 --> 00:19:24.319
