<v Speaker 1>teams meeting in the World Series for the first time

<v Speaker 1>since nineteen eighty one. So we will go back and

27
00:01:27.879 --> 00:01:30.680
<v Speaker 1>check in with members of the nineteen eighty one Dodgers

28
00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:33.680
<v Speaker 1>and look back at that series in which the Dodgers

29
00:01:33.719 --> 00:01:36.959
<v Speaker 1>and Yankees battled and the Dodgers prevailing with a World

30
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:41.640
<v Speaker 1>Series championship. The Dodgers playing in their twenty second World Series,

31
00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:45.599
<v Speaker 1>the Yankees played in their forty first World Series. These

32
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:48.760
<v Speaker 1>two teams now, well, I've squared off for will be

33
00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:52.040
<v Speaker 1>the twelfth time head to head in the Fall Classic.

34
00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:54.959
<v Speaker 1>The Yankees lead the overall series eight to three, but

35
00:01:55.079 --> 00:01:57.599
<v Speaker 1>the Dodgers advancing to their fourth World Series in eight

36
00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:00.560
<v Speaker 1>years in Saxy Again, the national narrative is and the

37
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:04.319
<v Speaker 1>questioning last night from members of the media to Dodger players, well,

38
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:06.439
<v Speaker 1>you guys, you get to play the Yankees? What's that

39
00:02:06.439 --> 00:02:08.120
<v Speaker 1>gond you like to play the New York Yankee? What's

40
00:02:08.159 --> 00:02:10.759
<v Speaker 1>it gonna be like to play Wan Soto, play Aaron Judge?

41
00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:13.599
<v Speaker 1>What are you looking forward to about playing the Yankees? No, no, no,

42
00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:16.039
<v Speaker 1>excuse me. The Yankees haven't been to the World Series

43
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:18.400
<v Speaker 1>since two thousand and nine. This is the fourth trip

44
00:02:18.439 --> 00:02:20.919
<v Speaker 1>in the last eight years, with a good majority of

45
00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:25.319
<v Speaker 1>this Dodger team being on these Dodger runs the last eight, nine,

46
00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:28.240
<v Speaker 1>ten years. So it should be reversed. It should be

47
00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:30.319
<v Speaker 1>asking the Yankee players what to like to go out

48
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:32.599
<v Speaker 1>to LA and face the Dodgers. What's it gonna be

49
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:34.960
<v Speaker 1>like to go out and face Jack Felerity. What's it

50
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:38.039
<v Speaker 1>gonna be like to face the dogs the bullpen. That's

51
00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:39.120
<v Speaker 1>what the questioning should be.

52
00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:43.400
<v Speaker 5>Yes, And remember, I want to tell them that the

53
00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:46.759
<v Speaker 5>Dodgers have already beaten the Padres, all right, maybe the

54
00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:49.520
<v Speaker 5>second best team in all the playoffs next to the Dodgers.

55
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:50.199
<v Speaker 1>I believe it.

56
00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:53.879
<v Speaker 5>I mean that Padre team was stacked, right, and they

57
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:58.039
<v Speaker 5>went through those guys. And this is not just national coverage,

58
00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:01.240
<v Speaker 5>this is global coverage of the whole world. You think

59
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:05.800
<v Speaker 5>about New York and the proximity to Europe, okay, not far.

60
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:07.879
<v Speaker 5>I mean you're talking about what five hour flight, six

61
00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:11.199
<v Speaker 5>hour flight, So the Yankees have probably got a little

62
00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:14.000
<v Speaker 5>bit more panache maybe over there because of just the

63
00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:16.840
<v Speaker 5>proximity to New York. And so that's kind of the team.

64
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:20.439
<v Speaker 5>You come out west and you go more west. Okay,

65
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.000
<v Speaker 5>you got Japan, right, and then you've got a two

66
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:26.560
<v Speaker 5>players on this team with Shohei o Tani and Yamamoto.

67
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:30.280
<v Speaker 5>So those guys kind of bring those connections in. So

68
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:35.599
<v Speaker 5>what you're talking about now is a global interest in

69
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:38.800
<v Speaker 5>this game, and it's gonna be huge. This This might

70
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:42.319
<v Speaker 5>be you know, with the transfer of information today and

71
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:45.560
<v Speaker 5>the way you know, social media is and whatnot, and

72
00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:49.840
<v Speaker 5>Baseball's outreach. I mean, this could be the biggest and

73
00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:54.039
<v Speaker 5>most prolific World Series ever, and it rightfully will be.

74
00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:57.159
<v Speaker 5>I one percent agree. I think the stage has never

75
00:03:57.240 --> 00:04:00.919
<v Speaker 5>been bigger for Major League Baseball in twenty twenty four.

76
00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:03.479
<v Speaker 5>And you put the Dodgers and yankeeses against each other,

77
00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:07.680
<v Speaker 5>and you put Judge and Soto and standing against Yamamoto

78
00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:11.039
<v Speaker 5>and Mookie Bett and Freddie Freeman and oh yes, some

79
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:13.439
<v Speaker 5>guy named shoe Hey Otani who happens to be the

80
00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:16.639
<v Speaker 5>goat and happens to be the biggest name on the planet.

81
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:19.759
<v Speaker 5>I mean, this, this is gonna be unbelievable. Well, we

82
00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:22.519
<v Speaker 5>told you about it last night. What a celebration it was.

83
00:04:22.600 --> 00:04:25.160
<v Speaker 5>In the Dodgers' clubhouse and our own David Vase, the

84
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:27.279
<v Speaker 5>best of the best, gets the best.

85
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:29.800
<v Speaker 1>Information on and off the field. He's got the respect

86
00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:32.519
<v Speaker 1>of these guys in that Dodger clubhouse for what he

87
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:34.319
<v Speaker 1>does and what he brings to Dodger fans as the

88
00:04:34.360 --> 00:04:37.959
<v Speaker 1>communicator of Dodger information, host to Dodger Talk. You hear

89
00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:39.920

90
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:42.519

91
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:44.759

94

113
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:43.839
<v Speaker 1>I can't do it without him down there. I could

114
00:05:43.879 --> 00:05:46.639
<v Speaker 1>have done it without them. How about this guy, Max Munsey?

115
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:48.199
<v Speaker 1>What would you do without Max Munsey?

116

<v Speaker 6>Right now, David, I feel like I'm a got more

122
00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:03.959
<v Speaker 6>champagne and beer than you.

00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:04.240

<v Speaker 10>Hey, no story for you, right?

125
00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:08.600

<v Speaker 8>Or two dirts?

129
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:13.519
<v Speaker 8>He came out of the game.

130
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:16.319
<v Speaker 1>What what did I tell you? He said, I want

131

<v Speaker 1>this game six?

132
00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:19.680
<v Speaker 8>And you were right.

133
00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:22.920
<v Speaker 1>How much does Brent Honeywell mean to this team? Just

134
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:25.480
<v Speaker 1>everything he brings. That's a dog. That's a dog.

135
00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:27.959
<v Speaker 6>Our whole Bullpen's dogs. But this guy put him in

136
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:31.000
<v Speaker 6>a musition. Hey, you need two outs, he's got you.

137
00:06:31.000 --> 00:06:34.439
<v Speaker 6>You need three innings, he's got you. This guy who cares, Hey,

<v Speaker 6>you need someone to throw LIVEVP in San Diego.

139

<v Speaker 1>He's got you this today.

140
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:41.560
<v Speaker 6>This guy might have gotten Moovie Bets right because he

141
00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:42.399
<v Speaker 6>threw him LIVEVP.

142
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:43.319
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if you.

00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:43.720
<v Speaker 8>Guys do that.

144
00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:46.439
<v Speaker 12>He threw VP because he wasn't He wasn't active at.

145
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:49.600
<v Speaker 1>The time he threw LIVP. Rookie Betts started going off.

146
00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:51.759
<v Speaker 11>Did you throw him a screwball?

147
00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:52.519
<v Speaker 8>No?

148
00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:54.519

<v Speaker 3>That's what I said.

151
00:06:57.079 --> 00:06:59.000
<v Speaker 7>I told all three of them, I'm throwing it down

152
00:06:59.000 --> 00:06:59.399
<v Speaker 7>the middle.

00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:02.800
<v Speaker 3>That's awesome.

155
00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:06.319
<v Speaker 1>Brent Honeywell might be the under copper MVD of this team.

156
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:07.360
<v Speaker 1>You never know.

157
00:07:07.639 --> 00:07:08.120
<v Speaker 10>You never know.

158
00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:11.079
<v Speaker 1>This guy's a dog. He's one of the heart beats

159
00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:14.000
<v Speaker 1>of this team. It doesn't get stated enough. He doesn't

160
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:16.800
<v Speaker 1>get enough credit. This dude's amazing in him on the bus,

161
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:20.839
<v Speaker 1>in the clubhouse, in the bullpen. This dude's amazing. Lexie,

162
00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:22.079
<v Speaker 1>What does this team mean to you?

163
00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:24.480
<v Speaker 6>As far as going back to the World Series.

164
00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:27.199
<v Speaker 1>You were here in eighteen, you want it in twenty.

165
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:29.319
<v Speaker 1>How bad do you want to ring for these guys?

166
00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:31.519
<v Speaker 1>And how bad do you want to break this? This

167
00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:33.079
<v Speaker 1>is one of the closest groups that I've ever been

168
00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:33.439
<v Speaker 1>to Bardo.

169
00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:36.920
<v Speaker 6>Man, you know, we had to get some work to

170
00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:39.199
<v Speaker 6>get here, but it's been amazing.

171
00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:42.199
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this is this is probably the closest keep.

172
00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:45.800
<v Speaker 6>I've had since twenty And you know when you talking

173
00:07:45.800 --> 00:07:48.000
<v Speaker 6>about twenty twenty, when you're stuck in a hotel with

174
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:51.000
<v Speaker 6>everybody for forty five days, yeah, you're gonna get close.

175
00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:53.759
<v Speaker 6>We're finding a way to do that while not being

176
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:54.399
<v Speaker 6>stuck together.

177
00:07:54.839 --> 00:07:56.399
<v Speaker 8>And this goes.

178
00:07:56.199 --> 00:07:58.319
<v Speaker 6>Back to you know, all the way back in Atlanta,

179
00:07:58.839 --> 00:07:59.680
<v Speaker 6>we had a team meeting.

180
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Tyler Glastan got told.

181
00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:04.480
<v Speaker 6>That he couldn't pitch anymore. That was a real kick

182
00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:07.120
<v Speaker 6>in the gut. But we had a team meeting.

183
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:08.639
<v Speaker 1>We said, hey, guys, look around.

184
00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:11.240
<v Speaker 6>We have all stars, we have Hall of Famers, we

185
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:12.959
<v Speaker 6>have guys making a lot of money.

186
00:08:12.839 --> 00:08:15.920
<v Speaker 1>In this clubhouse. We can still do this. And we

187
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:18.680
<v Speaker 1>had to get everybody to believe in that. And our

188
00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:21.639
<v Speaker 1>season turned right there. And then we had five days

189
00:08:21.639 --> 00:08:22.600
<v Speaker 1>off and we've.

190
00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:23.040
<v Speaker 8>Talked about that.

191
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:25.680
<v Speaker 3>The last two years.

192
00:08:25.759 --> 00:08:28.199
<v Speaker 6>We've had five days off, right, we didn't know how

193
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:30.720
<v Speaker 6>to handle that, and coming into this year.

194
00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:33.039
<v Speaker 1>You know, we tried multiple things, right, they let.

195
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:35.279
<v Speaker 6>Fans into the stadium for a city game. We're trying

196
00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:38.679
<v Speaker 6>to make it a real situation. And this year us

197
00:08:38.720 --> 00:08:41.360
<v Speaker 6>as players, we went to the front office and said, hey,

198
00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:45.120
<v Speaker 6>this is what we're doing, and we told.

199
00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:45.759
<v Speaker 10>Them what we want to do.

200
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:49.799
<v Speaker 6>And everyone stresses out about having the five days off,

201
00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:51.960
<v Speaker 6>and we treated it as a.

202
00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:54.240
<v Speaker 1>Reward, because it is a reward.

203
00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:56.919
<v Speaker 6>You grind for eight months, going back to February spring training,

204
00:08:57.159 --> 00:08:59.679
<v Speaker 6>this is in this is the reward.

205
00:08:59.759 --> 00:08:59.919
<v Speaker 4>Right.

206
00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:02.840
<v Speaker 6>We played the best of the bath and we said, hey,

207
00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:05.480
<v Speaker 6>we earned the number one seed.

208
00:09:06.120 --> 00:09:09.440
<v Speaker 1>It's every ward. You get five days off as ever reward.

209
00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:11.919
<v Speaker 1>So we wanted to treat those award. We brought into

210
00:09:12.039 --> 00:09:14.720
<v Speaker 1>I Doo. We had unbelievable catering.

211
00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:19.159
<v Speaker 12>We had fun, We had fool table thing, bok tables.

212
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:22.240
<v Speaker 1>Papa shots. We had a really good time. We were

213
00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:25.039
<v Speaker 1>here together as a group, were for eight hours a.

214
00:09:25.080 --> 00:09:29.679
<v Speaker 6>Day, and you know in the past we were here

215
00:09:29.679 --> 00:09:31.919
<v Speaker 6>for two three hours a day. We tried to make

216
00:09:31.960 --> 00:09:33.320
<v Speaker 6>it as serious as possible.

217
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:37.360
<v Speaker 1>This year, Rena said, no, we're here together. Boys.

218
00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:41.399
<v Speaker 12>I am not questioning you as a father, you as

219
00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:45.240
<v Speaker 12>a husband, you as a boyfriend, whatever, but give me

220
00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:45.919
<v Speaker 12>three weeks.

221
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I need three weeks out of you to be with

222
00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:50.360
<v Speaker 1>the boys. We're gonna cline through this together for.

223
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:52.519
<v Speaker 6>Three weeks, and then you can be the best husband

224
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:53.960
<v Speaker 6>and father you can you've ever been.

225
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:55.559
<v Speaker 1>But I need three weeks out of you.

226
00:09:56.039 --> 00:09:58.799
<v Speaker 12>So for eight hours a day and those five days off,

227
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:01.759
<v Speaker 12>we were here together. I'm just hanging out, have your fun,

228
00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:04.919
<v Speaker 12>having some food, talking about what we're gonna do, get

229
00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:07.600
<v Speaker 12>a picture, watching watching baseball.

230
00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:10.919
<v Speaker 1>We were just here for eight hours a day being boys,

231
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:14.279
<v Speaker 1>and I really think that's translated into when we're.

232
00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:14.519
<v Speaker 8>At now.

233
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Well said, I think in New York, no three of

234
00:10:19.080 --> 00:10:19.960
<v Speaker 1>us should share a room.

235
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:23.159
<v Speaker 7>What I think all three of us we should hang out,

236
00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:24.960
<v Speaker 7>spend quality time in New York when the.

237
00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:27.720
<v Speaker 1>Series goes there, David, I can't think of anything worse.

238
00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Worse because I got your shower with my dad.

239
00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:33.840
<v Speaker 9>That's a bolt.

240
00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:42.120
<v Speaker 1>I'll take that out of maybe unbelievable candid stuff from

241
00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Max Munsey and Brentney.

242
00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:47.519
<v Speaker 5>My tail off. I mean, it's beautiful, that's you know

243
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:50.639
<v Speaker 5>what I can't. I'm sitting here listening to this and

244
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:54.840
<v Speaker 5>I feel like I'm twenty eight years old again, going

245
00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:58.960
<v Speaker 5>against the Olga. That's the same kind of stop that

246
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:02.720
<v Speaker 5>comes out of the guys today. It's no different. You

247
00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:04.840
<v Speaker 5>know what, It wasn't any different in the thirties and

248
00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:08.679
<v Speaker 5>forties either. They maybe not the same music, but they

249
00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:12.960
<v Speaker 5>they had the same feeling, the same uh you know,

250
00:11:13.200 --> 00:11:16.200
<v Speaker 5>the same you know, chemistry with all the players on

251
00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:18.480
<v Speaker 5>the team. I just thought it was great. Eight hours

252
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:20.679
<v Speaker 5>a day, that's what they do. That would this is

253
00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:23.480
<v Speaker 5>the difference. This is the difference in this team. When

254
00:11:23.480 --> 00:11:25.639
<v Speaker 5>we talk about that it factor, when we talk about

255
00:11:25.639 --> 00:11:29.799
<v Speaker 5>this team really wants it. This decision to be the

256
00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:31.919
<v Speaker 5>best dad, you can be the best boyfriend, be the

257
00:11:31.919 --> 00:11:35.360
<v Speaker 5>best whatever you can be. After this is over, give

258
00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:37.279
<v Speaker 5>me eight hours a day instead of the two or three.

259
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:39.000
<v Speaker 1>This is this is.

260
00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:41.639
<v Speaker 5>He said, just a bunch of guys being boys. This

261
00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:47.039
<v Speaker 5>is the difference in this team. I really wholeheartedly believe

262
00:11:47.120 --> 00:11:49.279
<v Speaker 5>that decision could have changed everything.

263
00:11:49.360 --> 00:11:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, very candid stuff, Vira, very real.

264
00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:56.559
<v Speaker 5>And you're not any of that stuff from other reporters

265
00:11:56.600 --> 00:11:58.759
<v Speaker 5>other than David Vassey. No, you know why, because they're

266
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:00.320
<v Speaker 5>not gonna let their guard down and talk like that.

267
00:12:00.759 --> 00:12:02.720
<v Speaker 5>Percent it's not gonna happen.

268
00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:04.759
<v Speaker 1>One hundred percent that's why it has gone viral, and

269
00:12:04.799 --> 00:12:07.440
<v Speaker 1>so many Dodger fans and baseball fans are like, man,

270
00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:10.159
<v Speaker 1>this is real stuff. This is real, great information, and

271
00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:13.679
<v Speaker 1>this is awesome to see what this team does to

272
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:15.799
<v Speaker 1>prepare and the buy in that this team has in

273
00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:19.279
<v Speaker 1>fact joining us now is our own. David Vase, what

274
00:12:19.399 --> 00:12:21.679
<v Speaker 1>a night he had last night, David, we just heard

275
00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:25.279
<v Speaker 1>Brent Honeywell Junior and Max Munsey as you're talking to

276
00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:28.799
<v Speaker 1>these guys, have you have you ever seen Max Munsey

277
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:31.600
<v Speaker 1>open up like this before and be as candid as

278
00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:34.120
<v Speaker 1>he was. It felt like he was just getting it

279
00:12:34.200 --> 00:12:37.679
<v Speaker 1>off his chest, like Hey, Dodger fans, we're grinding, we're working.

280
00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:39.720
<v Speaker 1>We want this as much as you guys do. It

281
00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:40.360
<v Speaker 1>was awesome.

282
00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:44.679
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, I was surprised that he shared as much as

283
00:12:44.679 --> 00:12:49.039
<v Speaker 8>he did because before the first game of the postseason, guys,

284
00:12:49.240 --> 00:12:52.639
<v Speaker 8>Monsey laid out all of that to me, and at

285
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:55.200
<v Speaker 8>that point in time, we obviously didn't know where it

286
00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:57.360
<v Speaker 8>was going to go. They might have done all that

287
00:12:57.559 --> 00:13:00.399
<v Speaker 8>and got bounced in the first round. But the one

288
00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:03.919
<v Speaker 8>thing that he felt good about and the rest of

289
00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:07.720
<v Speaker 8>the team felt good about, is even if they lost,

290
00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:11.720
<v Speaker 8>they wouldn't second guess whether or not they invested everything

291
00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:15.000
<v Speaker 8>into trying to win. And that's the biggest thing for

292
00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:18.639
<v Speaker 8>this team. After the last two years. Quite frankly, I

293
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:22.320
<v Speaker 8>didn't feel like they were as invested as this team

294
00:13:22.879 --> 00:13:26.480
<v Speaker 8>set out to be to begin the playoffs. And look,

295
00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:29.519
<v Speaker 8>that's the one thing, Steve, you know this, I think

296
00:13:29.519 --> 00:13:32.240
<v Speaker 8>we can all relate whatever we do in life. You

297
00:13:32.279 --> 00:13:34.840
<v Speaker 8>don't want to have any what ifs. And if the

298
00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:37.879
<v Speaker 8>Dodgers didn't make it to the World Series, they would

299
00:13:37.879 --> 00:13:40.200
<v Speaker 8>be able to have peace of mind that they tried

300
00:13:40.320 --> 00:13:43.919
<v Speaker 8>everything to be invested and give it all to be

301
00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:46.360
<v Speaker 8>able to try to make a run. And look now

302
00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:50.720
<v Speaker 8>it's paid off. So kudos to Max Munsey, Will Smith.

303
00:13:51.399 --> 00:13:57.159
<v Speaker 8>Those guys really were the catalysts to making sure everybody

304
00:13:57.320 --> 00:14:00.000
<v Speaker 8>was all in as you heard Max Mounsey described.

305
00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:03.039
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Dave, I know we like the Ribbia and all that.

306
00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:05.759
<v Speaker 5>It's only because we are very fond of you. But

307
00:14:06.399 --> 00:14:09.559
<v Speaker 5>that really shows, uh that you're not going to get

308
00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:12.279
<v Speaker 5>an interview. You're not going to have somebody put their

309
00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:16.440
<v Speaker 5>guard down and talk like that unless they have an

310
00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:20.000
<v Speaker 5>extreme reverence in the highest regard for you. So kudos

311
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:22.080
<v Speaker 5>to you forgetting that interview. That's that's It says a

312
00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:24.919
<v Speaker 5>lot about you, and it's just great. I also thought

313
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:26.559
<v Speaker 5>it was great. They said it wasn't. It was about

314
00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:28.240
<v Speaker 5>the worst idea ever for you to hang out with

315
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:29.120
<v Speaker 5>them in a room and.

316
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:33.200
<v Speaker 2>They'd rather shower with their dad is absolutely hilarious.

317
00:14:34.399 --> 00:14:37.480
<v Speaker 8>Brandon Honeywell reminds all of us of Kenny Powers from

318
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:41.399
<v Speaker 8>Eastbound and Down and before the playoffs started they made

319
00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:43.720
<v Speaker 8>him get a perm so he had a perm and

320
00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:46.720
<v Speaker 8>he had the shaved side because he is that guy.

321
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:49.600
<v Speaker 8>He was basically out of baseball. He'll come out of

322
00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:52.679
<v Speaker 8>the bullpen, he'll make a start. And you heard I

323
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:55.320
<v Speaker 8>mean I didn't know that he threw live BP to

324
00:14:55.399 --> 00:14:58.840
<v Speaker 8>Mookie Bets and the rest of the team that I mean,

325
00:14:58.879 --> 00:15:01.759
<v Speaker 8>that's who he is. He's just a guy that ball

326
00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:03.440
<v Speaker 8>or do anything that it takes.

327
00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:05.440
<v Speaker 5>Dave, Dave, you know what you know, as you can see,

328
00:15:05.559 --> 00:15:10.279
<v Speaker 5>is the Dodgers collectively as a team have put all

329
00:15:10.360 --> 00:15:14.919
<v Speaker 5>their chips in the middle. They've completely bought in. Everything's

330
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:18.360
<v Speaker 5>moved to the middle. They have stepped over the line,

331
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:25.200
<v Speaker 5>and they have completely committed to this. That's a dangerous

332
00:15:25.240 --> 00:15:29.240
<v Speaker 5>combination for the great Yankee team that's coming in here

333
00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:32.240
<v Speaker 5>to play them in game one. And I just want

334
00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:34.240
<v Speaker 5>to know you mentioned a couple of guys who were

335
00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:37.919
<v Speaker 5>the main guys that were stirring this drink here to

336
00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:41.159
<v Speaker 5>get these guys to do this, to buy in, to

337
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:43.600
<v Speaker 5>spend the time the eight hours. Who were the guys

338
00:15:43.600 --> 00:15:45.320
<v Speaker 5>that were mainly the drivers for this.

339
00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:50.960
<v Speaker 8>It was Max Munsey and Will Smith. They got Kershaw

340
00:15:51.120 --> 00:15:55.559
<v Speaker 8>barnesk on board, and they just wanted to get Mookie

341
00:15:55.559 --> 00:15:58.360
<v Speaker 8>Betts and Freddie Freeman to buy in. Those were the

342
00:15:58.440 --> 00:16:01.519
<v Speaker 8>last two guys they needed to buy in, and those

343
00:16:01.559 --> 00:16:04.879
<v Speaker 8>two guys were all in. And once it got started,

344
00:16:04.879 --> 00:16:08.799
<v Speaker 8>My understanding is Mookie Bets was the leader and more

345
00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:12.440
<v Speaker 8>involved in all this time together just as much as

346
00:16:12.480 --> 00:16:15.440
<v Speaker 8>anybody else. So once they got those two guys to

347
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:17.720
<v Speaker 8>buy in, you know, Steve, you get the two best

348
00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:21.279
<v Speaker 8>players to buy in. Yeah, you know that's all shot.

349
00:16:21.360 --> 00:16:22.200
<v Speaker 5>Everybody follows it.

350
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:24.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Dave, well, let you save your voices. It's gonna

351
00:16:24.480 --> 00:16:27.039
<v Speaker 1>be a long way. But real quick, what does the

352
00:16:27.080 --> 00:16:30.039
<v Speaker 1>next four plus days look like for this Dodgers team?

353
00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:32.519
<v Speaker 1>Game ones not till Friday night at five o'clock. What

354
00:16:32.519 --> 00:16:35.600
<v Speaker 1>do you understand as far as maybe the schedule workouts.

355
00:16:35.600 --> 00:16:37.440
<v Speaker 1>What they're going to do be between now and then.

356
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:42.559
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, my understanding. Today they're going to get some treatment.

357
00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:45.919
<v Speaker 8>There's no really work being done on the field. Maybe

358
00:16:46.039 --> 00:16:49.480
<v Speaker 8>more rams up as the days go along. Thursday they

359
00:16:49.480 --> 00:16:51.679
<v Speaker 8>have a World Series media day. Did they have that

360
00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:54.279
<v Speaker 8>in nineteen eighty eight Saxy Media Day?

361
00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:57.399
<v Speaker 5>I don't remember that. No, I don't remember. No, I

362
00:16:57.399 --> 00:16:57.879
<v Speaker 5>don't think so.

363
00:16:58.759 --> 00:17:01.039
<v Speaker 8>I'm sure Kirk Gibson was right there right at media

364
00:17:01.120 --> 00:17:01.519
<v Speaker 8>day front.

365
00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:02.919
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, oh yeah, we had a media day.

366
00:17:02.960 --> 00:17:06.799
<v Speaker 5>We got John Shueho Sue who brought his camera that day.

367
00:17:09.440 --> 00:17:11.960
<v Speaker 8>Well, Dave want two guys to keep in mind as

368
00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:15.519
<v Speaker 8>we get closer to the World Series rosters being said,

369
00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:19.839
<v Speaker 8>do not rule out Bruce Dark Radol or Alex Vesia

370
00:17:19.920 --> 00:17:21.559
<v Speaker 8>coming back and being able to pitch.

371
00:17:21.880 --> 00:17:24.000
<v Speaker 1>That'd be awesome to get both those guys back to

00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:28.480
<v Speaker 1>help out the bullpend David, fantastic job last night. Tremendous

415
00:19:31.559 --> 00:19:35.160

416
00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:41.720
<v Speaker 1>and they have been tormenting everybody in the postseason, Padres

420
00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:57.039
<v Speaker 1>this Monday morning, as LA celebrates yet another National League pennant,

421
00:19:57.400 --> 00:20:00.640
<v Speaker 1>the Dodgers advancing to their fourth World Series years, the

422
00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:04.519
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers going for their eighth World Series title. And how

423
00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:08.480
<v Speaker 1>about this the first ever chance to celebrate a World

424
00:20:08.640 --> 00:20:13.400
<v Speaker 1>Series championship at Dodgers Stadium. I mean, at the seven

425
00:20:13.480 --> 00:20:16.880
<v Speaker 1>titles here it is nineteen fifty five against the Yankees.

426
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:19.640
<v Speaker 1>Did not celebrate Dodger Stadium. There was no Dodger Stadium.

427
00:20:20.200 --> 00:20:23.799
<v Speaker 1>Nineteen fifty nine against the White Sox. Celebrated in Chicago,

428
00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:28.640
<v Speaker 1>nineteen sixty three, celebrated against the Yankees. Nineteen sixty five.

429
00:20:29.039 --> 00:20:31.839
<v Speaker 1>They won the World Series in Minnesota against the Twins.

430
00:20:32.200 --> 00:20:35.519
<v Speaker 1>Nineteen eighty one, won at Yankee Stadium against the New

431
00:20:35.599 --> 00:20:38.839
<v Speaker 1>York Yankees. Nineteen eighty eight, you guys won against the

432
00:20:38.880 --> 00:20:43.240
<v Speaker 1>A's at the Coliseum in Oakland, twenty twenty the Dodgers.

433
00:20:44.119 --> 00:20:48.920
<v Speaker 1>The Dodgers won it in the Bubble down in Tampa,

434
00:20:49.680 --> 00:20:51.799
<v Speaker 1>the only time that they've actually won one. The only

435
00:20:51.839 --> 00:20:53.920
<v Speaker 1>time they've ever won a World Series on their home

436
00:20:53.960 --> 00:20:56.480
<v Speaker 1>field nineteen sixty three. I stand corrected. At the seven

437
00:20:56.880 --> 00:21:00.160
<v Speaker 1>World Series championships, only one has been clenched on the

438
00:21:00.240 --> 00:21:03.240
<v Speaker 1>home field. That was nineteen sixty three against the Yankees

439
00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:05.920
<v Speaker 1>at Dodger Stadium. So not a lot of people remember that,

440
00:21:06.119 --> 00:21:08.119
<v Speaker 1>not alive for that. A lot of the young Dodger

441
00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:10.960
<v Speaker 1>fans hoping this is the first time since nineteen sixty

442
00:21:11.039 --> 00:21:13.680
<v Speaker 1>three that they can win a Dodger Stadium a World

443
00:21:13.720 --> 00:21:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Series championship.

444
00:21:14.799 --> 00:21:18.119
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and this is gonna be absolutely epic when you

445
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:20.599
<v Speaker 5>consider these two teams going out. I mean, this is

446
00:21:21.079 --> 00:21:23.160
<v Speaker 5>it's like a build up that's been coming for a

447
00:21:23.359 --> 00:21:26.279
<v Speaker 5>long time. I mean, we team people were talking about

448
00:21:26.319 --> 00:21:28.599
<v Speaker 5>this in spring training. Look at these two teams. I mean,

449
00:21:28.839 --> 00:21:31.079
<v Speaker 5>this is probably gonna be a World Series matchup. Ah,

450
00:21:31.559 --> 00:21:33.160
<v Speaker 5>what are the odds of that? I'm looking at the

451
00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:35.839
<v Speaker 5>Kentucky Derby. When does a favorite ever win the Kentucky Derby?

452
00:21:35.960 --> 00:21:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Not very much. And it's too hard to be here.

453
00:21:38.759 --> 00:21:41.960
<v Speaker 5>We are it's gonna happen. I mean, coming into this too,

454
00:21:42.039 --> 00:21:45.039
<v Speaker 5>you're gonna have guys that are really hot Standings swinging

455
00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:49.279
<v Speaker 5>a big bat. Soto swinging a big bat, Mookie Bets

456
00:21:49.319 --> 00:21:53.119
<v Speaker 5>and and uh you know, Sho Tani are swinging big bat.

457
00:21:53.240 --> 00:21:56.440
<v Speaker 5>I mean, this is gonna be just a major clash.

458
00:21:56.799 --> 00:21:59.480
<v Speaker 5>This is gonna be This is gonna be profound. This

459
00:21:59.599 --> 00:22:02.559
<v Speaker 5>is gonna be a huge event in our country, no

460
00:22:02.680 --> 00:22:03.240
<v Speaker 5>doubt about it.

461
00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:05.799
<v Speaker 1>You know, this is a Yankees team with Jazz Chisholm.

462
00:22:05.920 --> 00:22:08.200
<v Speaker 1>This is a Yankees team with the names you just

463
00:22:08.319 --> 00:22:10.519
<v Speaker 1>rattled off. You throw Anthony Volpi, you throw in the

464
00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:13.960
<v Speaker 1>catcher Wells. Yeah, throwing Alex Dugo, former Dodger who we

465
00:22:14.519 --> 00:22:17.279
<v Speaker 1>seem to have forgotten about, batting ninth and playing left

466
00:22:17.319 --> 00:22:19.160
<v Speaker 1>field for the New York Yankees.

467
00:22:19.200 --> 00:22:22.079
<v Speaker 5>And by the way, Tim, have you seen Chisholm throw

468
00:22:22.200 --> 00:22:22.880
<v Speaker 5>from third base?

469
00:22:23.680 --> 00:22:28.160
<v Speaker 1>No, Holy cow, good or bad? He has got a

470
00:22:28.559 --> 00:22:30.279
<v Speaker 1>freaking missile.

471
00:22:30.519 --> 00:22:34.880
<v Speaker 5>Really, Oh my god, you're talking about, you know, three

472
00:22:34.960 --> 00:22:38.640
<v Speaker 5>feet off the ground the whole way from from in

473
00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:41.440
<v Speaker 5>the hole, from like short left field. You're talking about

474
00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:43.839
<v Speaker 5>three feet off the ground with a little hippitie hop

475
00:22:44.240 --> 00:22:47.200
<v Speaker 5>when he gets near your first base. I'm telling you,

476
00:22:47.319 --> 00:22:50.759
<v Speaker 5>this guy's got a cannon over there. I mean, way,

477
00:22:50.799 --> 00:22:52.240
<v Speaker 5>do you see this? It's amazing.

478
00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:54.519
<v Speaker 1>He's a pickup they made for the Miami ro like that.

479
00:22:54.680 --> 00:22:55.680
<v Speaker 5>It's crazy.

480
00:22:55.839 --> 00:22:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, Anthony Volpi is a guy that they

481
00:22:58.119 --> 00:23:01.720
<v Speaker 1>absolutely love, a New Yorker, a hometown kid there, twenty

482
00:23:01.799 --> 00:23:04.880
<v Speaker 1>three years old, playing shortstop for the New York Yankees.

483
00:23:04.920 --> 00:23:08.119
<v Speaker 1>He was annointed as the next Derek Jeter. Uh as

484
00:23:08.200 --> 00:23:12.559
<v Speaker 1>far as possible legacy shortstop. Yeah that's true.

485
00:23:13.279 --> 00:23:14.839
<v Speaker 5>I mean, but you know, people, I mean, I'm I'm

486
00:23:14.839 --> 00:23:17.359
<v Speaker 5>saying they weren't talking about it. But Derek Jeter's like,

487
00:23:17.440 --> 00:23:20.000
<v Speaker 5>you know, generational. But now he's a good player, No

488
00:23:20.200 --> 00:23:22.079
<v Speaker 5>doubt he's a good player. I wouldn't trade him for

489
00:23:22.079 --> 00:23:25.160
<v Speaker 5>Tommy Edmund No, heck, no, no way, heck no.

490
00:23:25.319 --> 00:23:28.480
<v Speaker 1>Tommy Edmand now is cemented himself in Dodger history with

491
00:23:28.559 --> 00:23:31.240
<v Speaker 1>eleven runs driven in and the NLCS Ty and Corey

492
00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:34.519
<v Speaker 1>Seeger for the franchise record NLCS MVP.

493
00:23:34.799 --> 00:23:37.720
<v Speaker 5>I mean, yeah, Tim, remember this though, Rizzo, they're gonna

494
00:23:37.720 --> 00:23:40.279
<v Speaker 5>have an opperatity. I think if there's one spot where

495
00:23:40.319 --> 00:23:43.920
<v Speaker 5>you could exploit, you know, this team is going after Rizzo.

496
00:23:44.119 --> 00:23:46.480
<v Speaker 5>That's and the fact that Judge isn't swinging a big bat.

497
00:23:46.599 --> 00:23:48.480
<v Speaker 5>He may be you know it it's somebody sometime he's

498
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:50.880
<v Speaker 5>going to Yeah, uh, hopefully it's when the season's over.

499
00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:55.640
<v Speaker 5>But Anthony Rizzo has got Remember he's got two broken

500
00:23:55.720 --> 00:23:58.559
<v Speaker 5>fingers on his right hand. Remember he's a left handed hitter.

501
00:23:58.680 --> 00:24:01.680
<v Speaker 5>So this is the hand bottom hand that pulls the

502
00:24:01.759 --> 00:24:04.680
<v Speaker 5>bat through probably more important than the other hand, so

503
00:24:05.119 --> 00:24:06.880
<v Speaker 5>you could see them. You can see in his some

504
00:24:07.000 --> 00:24:09.240
<v Speaker 5>of his swings. He got one hit on an inside

505
00:24:09.279 --> 00:24:10.920
<v Speaker 5>pitch that he usually pulls. What did you do?

506
00:24:11.200 --> 00:24:12.000
<v Speaker 1>He broke his bat and.

507
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:14.640
<v Speaker 5>Flared it over the shortstop. So if you can mitigate

508
00:24:14.960 --> 00:24:17.200
<v Speaker 5>some of the power that's coming out of Rizzo and

509
00:24:17.319 --> 00:24:20.279
<v Speaker 5>and not the same hitter with two broken fingers, uh,

510
00:24:20.559 --> 00:24:23.720
<v Speaker 5>and and and and he's playing through this simply on

511
00:24:23.920 --> 00:24:27.240
<v Speaker 5>a pure as much as you can stand pain basis.

512
00:24:27.400 --> 00:24:29.440
<v Speaker 5>It's not really anything that he's gonna do worse to

513
00:24:29.519 --> 00:24:31.839
<v Speaker 5>his fingers other than let him heal. But he's on

514
00:24:32.039 --> 00:24:33.839
<v Speaker 5>he's on a pain basis only right now.

515
00:24:34.039 --> 00:24:37.240
<v Speaker 1>So it's gonna be a great series. It's gonna be

516
00:24:37.319 --> 00:24:40.640
<v Speaker 1>fun to see these two teams, Uh square off. Everybody's

517
00:24:40.680 --> 00:24:42.960
<v Speaker 1>wanted it, and we got it. Let's go to Glenn

518
00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:45.480
<v Speaker 1>and him. It been waiting patiently. We appreciate that. Glenn,

519
00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:48.880
<v Speaker 1>good morning, thanks for taking my call.

520
00:24:49.599 --> 00:24:52.839
<v Speaker 3>I want to talk about adding players. I know they

521
00:24:52.920 --> 00:24:57.400
<v Speaker 3>haven't until Friday to add more players. What about Kris

522
00:24:57.480 --> 00:25:00.920
<v Speaker 3>Shaw and Miguel Rojash Are they gonna be able to fight.

523
00:25:01.519 --> 00:25:04.319
<v Speaker 1>Good question. As far as Miguel Rojas is concerned, he's

524
00:25:04.400 --> 00:25:07.880
<v Speaker 1>a possibility. H Clayton Kershaw has already you know, shut

525
00:25:07.920 --> 00:25:10.839
<v Speaker 1>it down, so he's not ramped up, he's not ready

526
00:25:10.880 --> 00:25:13.880
<v Speaker 1>to go. He is watching this postseason from the dugout.

527
00:25:13.960 --> 00:25:17.079
<v Speaker 1>But Miguel Rojas, the adductor, we'll see if he's available

528
00:25:17.160 --> 00:25:20.319
<v Speaker 1>to go. And that's a serious question that we're gonna

529
00:25:20.319 --> 00:25:22.119
<v Speaker 1>have the next couple of days to talk about. Sexy

530
00:25:22.279 --> 00:25:25.160
<v Speaker 1>is do you mess with the chemistry of the position

531
00:25:25.279 --> 00:25:27.640
<v Speaker 1>players right now or do you leave it as it is?

532
00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:30.240
<v Speaker 1>I know you're getting back maybe Bruce dar Graderole and

533
00:25:30.480 --> 00:25:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Alex Vessia, which you need another left hander. That's the

534
00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:35.440
<v Speaker 1>Pitching's one thing you can mess with, maybe tinkering with

535
00:25:35.680 --> 00:25:38.119
<v Speaker 1>who you put on the roster. But I mean the

536
00:25:38.240 --> 00:25:40.160
<v Speaker 1>bench away that Chris Taylor's played.

537
00:25:40.519 --> 00:25:42.240
<v Speaker 5>You know, they'll give you at I'll give you a

538
00:25:42.279 --> 00:25:45.799
<v Speaker 5>little subset, okay, of you know, so pitching is one thing,

539
00:25:45.880 --> 00:25:48.519
<v Speaker 5>but you go to hit, you know, the hitting regular players. Okay,

540
00:25:48.559 --> 00:25:51.319
<v Speaker 5>what about Freddie Freeman. I mean that's a no brainer.

541
00:25:51.400 --> 00:25:55.160
<v Speaker 5>If Freddy's ready, he If Freddy is ready, he's going

542
00:25:55.200 --> 00:25:55.680
<v Speaker 5>to be in there.

543
00:25:55.880 --> 00:25:59.960
<v Speaker 1>No question about it. But but I you know, I can't.

544
00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:01.680
<v Speaker 5>I can't take Edmond out.

545
00:26:02.119 --> 00:26:02.839
<v Speaker 8>How can you do that?

546
00:26:03.599 --> 00:26:04.039
<v Speaker 1>You can't.

547
00:26:04.319 --> 00:26:06.200
<v Speaker 5>I mean if Miguil Rojas, he's gonna have to be

548
00:26:06.799 --> 00:26:08.160
<v Speaker 5>He's gonna have to be a guy off the bench

549
00:26:08.279 --> 00:26:12.559
<v Speaker 5>right now, now, now, now for the regular season. Okay, sure,

550
00:26:12.640 --> 00:26:16.359
<v Speaker 5>maybe different story because that's Edmund's role is to play everywhere.

551
00:26:16.440 --> 00:26:16.799
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm.

552
00:26:17.240 --> 00:26:20.000
<v Speaker 5>So but right now you kind of ride the pony, right,

553
00:26:20.200 --> 00:26:22.559
<v Speaker 5>and the pony's hot, so that's the pony you jump on.

554
00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:25.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, you think about Miguel Rojas's role, He's a shortstop.

555
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:27.720
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't really play a lot of other positions.

556
00:26:27.920 --> 00:26:28.880
<v Speaker 5>No, that's all he plays.

557
00:26:28.960 --> 00:26:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And so if you're looking at him as a

558
00:26:30.519 --> 00:26:33.799
<v Speaker 1>bench player, role player, since Tommy Edmans now playing shortstop,

559
00:26:34.240 --> 00:26:36.200
<v Speaker 1>do you want Rojas off the bench where all he

560
00:26:36.240 --> 00:26:38.960
<v Speaker 1>can play a shortstop? Or did you rather have a

561
00:26:39.039 --> 00:26:42.079
<v Speaker 1>guy like a key Key Hernandez or a Chris Taylor

562
00:26:42.559 --> 00:26:44.920
<v Speaker 1>who or Andy Pajas who can play multiple spots in

563
00:26:44.960 --> 00:26:47.079
<v Speaker 1>the outfield. But for Chris Taylor who can play four

564
00:26:47.160 --> 00:26:49.920
<v Speaker 1>different positions right right, and Rojas only one.

565
00:26:50.079 --> 00:26:53.599
<v Speaker 5>Well, Rojas will have to be specific in where he plays.

566
00:26:53.640 --> 00:26:56.119
<v Speaker 5>If something goes down with Tommy Edmond. He can go

567
00:26:56.160 --> 00:26:58.720
<v Speaker 5>into shortstop. Okay, he can do that, but you might

568
00:26:58.920 --> 00:27:01.839
<v Speaker 5>use Rojas just off the bench to hit, you know,

569
00:27:01.960 --> 00:27:03.200
<v Speaker 5>if you need if you need a guy to come

570
00:27:03.240 --> 00:27:04.920
<v Speaker 5>in and hit, you know, maybe you use them.

571
00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:05.119
<v Speaker 8>There.

572
00:27:05.400 --> 00:27:07.559
<v Speaker 5>You got guys that can you can plug and play.

573
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:09.839
<v Speaker 5>Like you just said, k he can play anywhere too, right,

574
00:27:09.920 --> 00:27:11.640
<v Speaker 5>So I mean for a short time you can do that.

575
00:27:11.839 --> 00:27:14.119
<v Speaker 5>But for the long haul, Rojas is a shortstop and

576
00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:16.400
<v Speaker 5>if he earns the position, that's where he'll be. I

577
00:27:16.960 --> 00:27:18.720
<v Speaker 5>really do think that that position is going to be

578
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:20.799
<v Speaker 5>up for up for grabs this winter. Absolutely.

579
00:27:20.880 --> 00:27:23.519
<v Speaker 1>We check in with Father Gary here in Burbank. He

580
00:27:23.599 --> 00:27:26.440
<v Speaker 1>has blessed the Dodgers all postseason a long hopefully that

581
00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:29.640
<v Speaker 1>continues into the World series. Father Gary, good morning.

582
00:27:30.519 --> 00:27:32.799
<v Speaker 10>Hey, good morning guys. Listen, I want to thank you

583
00:27:32.960 --> 00:27:36.960
<v Speaker 10>for indulging me and letting me participate in your shows

584
00:27:37.000 --> 00:27:39.200
<v Speaker 10>these last couple of weeks. I'm really excited about this,

585
00:27:39.559 --> 00:27:41.759
<v Speaker 10>so let me ask you something. Two things I want

586
00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:45.240
<v Speaker 10>to say. One observation last night, the guys looked like

587
00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:48.680
<v Speaker 10>they were celebrating, but it looked like they knew that

588
00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:50.880
<v Speaker 10>they had more business to take care of. They weren't

589
00:27:50.920 --> 00:27:53.880
<v Speaker 10>going bananas on the field. They were shaking hands, they

590
00:27:53.920 --> 00:27:55.799
<v Speaker 10>were nodding at each other, they were patting each other

591
00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:59.920
<v Speaker 10>on the back. I didn't see much of the clubhouse stuff,

592
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:02.599
<v Speaker 10>but on the field it looked like they were like,

593
00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:04.720
<v Speaker 10>we got more business to take care of, guys.

594
00:28:04.799 --> 00:28:05.319
<v Speaker 8>This is not it.

595
00:28:05.519 --> 00:28:07.799
<v Speaker 10>This is just another step into the direction we want

596
00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:10.759
<v Speaker 10>to go. Then I have a prophecy for you, Freddie Freeman,

597
00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:15.720
<v Speaker 10>MVP of the World Series record. That keep that that's

598
00:28:15.759 --> 00:28:16.359
<v Speaker 10>going to be money.

599
00:28:16.640 --> 00:28:18.759
<v Speaker 1>All right, father Gary, we appreciate it. Hopefully you can

600
00:28:18.799 --> 00:28:20.880
<v Speaker 1>bless that ankle a little bit and get some healing

601
00:28:21.200 --> 00:28:24.720
<v Speaker 1>a little sooner and faster on that ankle. For Freddie Freeman,

602
00:28:24.759 --> 00:28:28.240
<v Speaker 1>it wouldn't surprise me if the guy that we kind

603
00:28:28.279 --> 00:28:31.079
<v Speaker 1>of forgot about in Game six in the NLCS because

604
00:28:31.079 --> 00:28:33.720
<v Speaker 1>of Tommy Edmond and everybody else that's contributed here in

605
00:28:33.759 --> 00:28:37.000
<v Speaker 1>the National League Championship Series, to have Freddie Freeman back

606
00:28:37.160 --> 00:28:40.000
<v Speaker 1>healthy and just put on a series a show at

607
00:28:40.039 --> 00:28:42.640
<v Speaker 1>the plate and just produce offensively and be named the

608
00:28:42.680 --> 00:28:43.519
<v Speaker 1>World Series MVP.

609
00:28:44.119 --> 00:28:46.279
<v Speaker 5>I would get shocked, and everybody on the team would

610
00:28:46.279 --> 00:28:48.880
<v Speaker 5>be good too. They would just want a World Series Look,

611
00:28:49.519 --> 00:28:52.640
<v Speaker 5>the other thing about Freddie is he's a professional hitter.

612
00:28:52.960 --> 00:28:55.680
<v Speaker 5>That's the best compliment you can ever give a baseball player.

613
00:28:55.839 --> 00:28:59.119
<v Speaker 5>A guy's everyday player. He's a professional, he's in he's

614
00:28:59.160 --> 00:29:02.240
<v Speaker 5>a professional hitter. And that's what Freddy is. I've seen

615
00:29:02.319 --> 00:29:05.079
<v Speaker 5>him in stumps slumps before. I've seen him in practice

616
00:29:05.119 --> 00:29:07.400
<v Speaker 5>and how he fixed those slumps. Been down in the

617
00:29:07.440 --> 00:29:10.839
<v Speaker 5>field watching him at every single ball line drive in

618
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:13.799
<v Speaker 5>practice over the shortstop's head. What happened in the game

619
00:29:13.880 --> 00:29:15.279
<v Speaker 5>that night? He came out and he had three line

620
00:29:15.319 --> 00:29:17.640
<v Speaker 5>drives to left field for base hits out of the slump.

621
00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:19.960
<v Speaker 5>That's what pros do, and that's what Freddy does. He

622
00:29:20.160 --> 00:29:22.759
<v Speaker 5>is one of a kind. He is a tremendous hitter.

623
00:29:23.759 --> 00:29:24.759
<v Speaker 5>Ish in Riverside.

624
00:29:24.839 --> 00:29:27.039
<v Speaker 1>Next up with Saxon, Kate's and Am is the Dodgers

625
00:29:27.079 --> 00:29:30.440
<v Speaker 1>a punch their ticket for a World Series bit against

626
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:31.400
<v Speaker 1>the Yankees.

627
00:29:31.400 --> 00:29:34.759
<v Speaker 11>Is Hey Man, Kim, Hey Steve, how are you guys

628
00:29:34.759 --> 00:29:35.279
<v Speaker 11>doing this morning?

629
00:29:35.319 --> 00:29:35.440
<v Speaker 4>Man?

630
00:29:35.559 --> 00:29:38.519
<v Speaker 11>Thanks, beautiful day, beautiful day. Hey, Well listen, I have

631
00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:40.839
<v Speaker 11>I did have a couple of comments here, but first

632
00:29:40.880 --> 00:29:44.279
<v Speaker 11>I'm wondering if I could wish a happy birthday shout

633
00:29:44.319 --> 00:29:48.799
<v Speaker 11>out to my brother Isaac Dodgers October baseball. It's pretty

634
00:29:48.839 --> 00:29:50.720
<v Speaker 11>much like one in the same for our family. So

635
00:29:50.759 --> 00:29:53.039
<v Speaker 11>I definitely want to wish my brother Isaac a happy

636
00:29:53.079 --> 00:29:53.720
<v Speaker 11>birthday today.

637
00:29:54.240 --> 00:29:55.079
<v Speaker 1>Very nice. I just did.

638
00:29:55.839 --> 00:29:59.000
<v Speaker 11>Thank you awesome, man, awesome, I'm awesome. So as far

639
00:29:59.079 --> 00:30:01.279
<v Speaker 11>as the baseball is concerned, man, I have been watching

640
00:30:01.319 --> 00:30:04.119
<v Speaker 11>these Yankees. They I'm not gonna lie as a fan

641
00:30:04.200 --> 00:30:06.480
<v Speaker 11>of baseball. They they do play some exciting ball, but

642
00:30:06.599 --> 00:30:09.359
<v Speaker 11>I think that we are better messed up. Steve, you

643
00:30:09.480 --> 00:30:11.200
<v Speaker 11>hit the nail on the head there with Rizzo. He

644
00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:13.519
<v Speaker 11>doesn't look like the same Rizzo from back in Chicago,

645
00:30:13.640 --> 00:30:15.839
<v Speaker 11>so I think that's definitely something we can exploit. But

646
00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:18.480
<v Speaker 11>to the fans, hey, let's show up, let's show out.

647
00:30:18.720 --> 00:30:21.400
<v Speaker 11>Let's make it loud and rockus. Let us get that

648
00:30:21.839 --> 00:30:24.000
<v Speaker 11>Ding World Series out?

649
00:30:24.400 --> 00:30:29.039
<v Speaker 1>All right? Is appreciate the phone call eight six seventy Mike,

650
00:30:29.079 --> 00:30:31.519
<v Speaker 1>and Fresno has been waiting patiently. Thank you for Mike.

651
00:30:31.599 --> 00:30:34.680
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, Hey, good morning boy.

652
00:30:35.680 --> 00:30:35.799
<v Speaker 11>Uh.

653
00:30:36.599 --> 00:30:38.519
<v Speaker 9>As a guy, that's harding to be on the phone

654
00:30:38.559 --> 00:30:42.079
<v Speaker 9>with Saxton Kate, ask you, I'm I can't listen to

655
00:30:42.119 --> 00:30:45.279
<v Speaker 9>you guys drive because they have someone else playing on

656
00:30:45.359 --> 00:30:48.160
<v Speaker 9>iHeart right now. But uh, I just want to say

657
00:30:48.359 --> 00:30:50.000
<v Speaker 9>I wanted to come down this week and be it

658
00:30:50.079 --> 00:30:51.359
<v Speaker 9>all right, I'm not going to go to the game,

659
00:30:51.440 --> 00:30:53.519
<v Speaker 9>but where's the best place to go watch the game

660
00:30:53.559 --> 00:30:56.079
<v Speaker 9>where I'll have they thought the biggest atmosphere, like dog

661
00:30:56.079 --> 00:30:56.880
<v Speaker 9>your atmosphere is.

662
00:30:57.359 --> 00:31:01.480
<v Speaker 1>That's a that's a great I'm not sure there's so

663
00:31:01.559 --> 00:31:05.400
<v Speaker 1>many great Dodger viewing parties. Uh here in southern California,

664
00:31:05.440 --> 00:31:08.640
<v Speaker 1>a lot of local spots around Dodgers Stadium. Uh, that's

665
00:31:08.640 --> 00:31:09.920
<v Speaker 1>a good thing. When maybe we'll post it up on

666
00:31:10.000 --> 00:31:11.759
<v Speaker 1>social media. Maybe we'll get into the next couple of

667
00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:14.640
<v Speaker 1>days where some great viewing spots are for Dodger fans

668
00:31:14.680 --> 00:31:15.640
<v Speaker 1>to watch the World Series.

669
00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:17.400
<v Speaker 5>Because probably not at the Kate's house. You don't want

670
00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:20.119
<v Speaker 5>to get too much bad language of screaming at the TV. Yeah,

671
00:31:20.200 --> 00:31:22.359
<v Speaker 5>because uh yeah, that wouldn't be a lot of fun.

672
00:31:23.039 --> 00:31:26.200
<v Speaker 5>First of food to be gone quickly, and second you'd

673
00:31:26.200 --> 00:31:28.880
<v Speaker 5>probably not like to hear the third commentary from the

674
00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:32.440
<v Speaker 5>radio TV and me uh during the game that it

675
00:31:32.480 --> 00:31:35.160
<v Speaker 5>gets quite annoying from people and they's why what kind

676
00:31:35.200 --> 00:31:36.359
<v Speaker 5>of food you supporting at the house? Too?

677
00:31:36.559 --> 00:31:38.519
<v Speaker 1>Well, it depends I like to go to the pizza.

678
00:31:38.559 --> 00:31:41.200
<v Speaker 1>There's a local spot here in Bourband called dinas Dino's Pizza,

679
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:44.240
<v Speaker 1>which is a great spot. I love doing that. The

680
00:31:44.319 --> 00:31:48.759
<v Speaker 1>wife can made chicken and steakkebobs last night, so that

681
00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:51.440
<v Speaker 1>was that was fun to have. So but uh yeah,

682
00:31:51.480 --> 00:31:53.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm into the pizza and a wine. So that's that's

683
00:31:53.599 --> 00:31:54.279
<v Speaker 1>a big thing for us.

684
00:31:54.480 --> 00:31:56.839
<v Speaker 5>We we got the scoreboards right down on the right

685
00:31:57.200 --> 00:31:59.680
<v Speaker 5>down the street from me, right around the corner, and

686
00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:03.400
<v Speaker 5>the best pizza everywhere, just amazing and the place is

687
00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:06.319
<v Speaker 5>jam packed. Okay, best pizza. What kind of pizza that

688
00:32:06.400 --> 00:32:08.759
<v Speaker 5>we Talcaroni? Just stay listen. I like the plain stuff. No,

689
00:32:08.880 --> 00:32:13.519
<v Speaker 5>but pepperoni and mozzailla, thin pepperoni, mozzarella and a Coca cola.

690
00:32:13.640 --> 00:32:14.440
<v Speaker 1>That's all I like.

691
00:32:14.480 --> 00:32:16.799
<v Speaker 5>I don't know why people have a beer with it

692
00:32:16.839 --> 00:32:19.039
<v Speaker 5>and they blow the whole reason for having a pizza. No,

693
00:32:19.160 --> 00:32:20.759
<v Speaker 5>it's pizza and Coca cola.

694
00:32:20.920 --> 00:32:23.400
<v Speaker 1>The best ever. Okay, because I mean, people'll start people

695
00:32:23.400 --> 00:32:26.599
<v Speaker 1>started saying Chicago deep dish. Det I don't like the thick.

696
00:32:26.960 --> 00:32:28.440
<v Speaker 5>I want the New York feel like you just gained

697
00:32:28.440 --> 00:32:29.960
<v Speaker 5>fourteen pounds by the time you go to bed.

698
00:32:30.039 --> 00:32:30.440
<v Speaker 1>That's true.

699
00:32:30.839 --> 00:32:31.319
<v Speaker 10>I don't like it.

700
00:32:31.440 --> 00:32:33.200
<v Speaker 1>The only thing good about New York in my mind

701
00:32:33.279 --> 00:32:35.319
<v Speaker 1>is the pizza, the New York pizza, the big fat

702
00:32:35.799 --> 00:32:37.640
<v Speaker 1>you know slices that you can fold up and eat.

703
00:32:37.839 --> 00:32:41.079
<v Speaker 1>The chubbies. Yeah, yeah, those they're big. Those are good,

704
00:32:41.279 --> 00:32:43.079
<v Speaker 1>they are those are really good.

705
00:32:43.119 --> 00:32:43.279
<v Speaker 8>Yeah.

706
00:32:43.319 --> 00:32:45.240
<v Speaker 5>But I like the thin slice. Brother, I'm telling you,

707
00:32:45.480 --> 00:32:48.160
<v Speaker 5>Pepperoni really good. Well, you you're like like an adonnas.

708
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:49.920
<v Speaker 5>You watch what you eat, your count your calories, you

709
00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:51.200
<v Speaker 5>have cheap days. You're one of those guys.

710
00:32:51.319 --> 00:32:51.839
<v Speaker 1>Actually, I'm not.

711
00:32:51.920 --> 00:32:54.519
<v Speaker 5>I wouldn't say that. I wouldn't say that at all.

712
00:32:55.839 --> 00:32:56.079
<v Speaker 8>He is.

713
00:32:56.119 --> 00:32:58.559
<v Speaker 1>Steve sax Up Jim Gates with you here until the

714
00:32:58.599 --> 00:33:00.880
<v Speaker 1>top of the hour. We're here all week long, getting

715
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:02.880
<v Speaker 1>you ready for Game one of the World Series. Yeah,

716
00:33:03.039 --> 00:33:08.599
<v Speaker 1>it's happening, Dodgers Yankees Friday night, Dodgers Stadium. We'll have

717
00:33:08.720 --> 00:33:10.720
<v Speaker 1>all the action, We'll have all the lead up, all

718
00:33:10.759 --> 00:33:13.799
<v Speaker 1>the build up, all the previewing, all the great guests

719
00:33:14.119 --> 00:33:23.279
<v Speaker 1>right here on NFI seventy LA Sports, Sax and Kate

720
00:33:23.359 --> 00:33:28.799
<v Speaker 1>to Am on this Monday morning. Dodgers clinching the NLCS

721
00:33:29.000 --> 00:33:31.640
<v Speaker 1>last night with a Game six victory over the New

722
00:33:31.759 --> 00:33:34.880
<v Speaker 1>York Mets, a ten to five win, for the Dodgers.

723
00:33:35.680 --> 00:33:38.519
<v Speaker 1>The bullpen game that panned out for the Dodgers, starting

724
00:33:38.599 --> 00:33:41.880
<v Speaker 1>with Michael Kopek and any with Blake Trying getting the

725
00:33:42.039 --> 00:33:45.559
<v Speaker 1>final six outs of the game. The Dogs as they

726
00:33:45.680 --> 00:33:48.720
<v Speaker 1>call themselves down there in the bullpen have emerged here

727
00:33:48.759 --> 00:33:52.359
<v Speaker 1>in September now October as the Dodgers relying on bullpen

728
00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:55.839
<v Speaker 1>games throughout the NLDS, the NLCS and Saxon no doubt

729
00:33:56.119 --> 00:33:59.680
<v Speaker 1>going into this World Series with Jack Flaherty, with uh

730
00:34:00.319 --> 00:34:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Yoshanoba Yamamoto, Walker Bueller, they've got three starters that they

731
00:34:04.279 --> 00:34:06.680
<v Speaker 1>can throw out there in a seven game series. But

732
00:34:07.400 --> 00:34:09.639
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna at least once, at least one time, we're

733
00:34:09.639 --> 00:34:11.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna see a bullpen game against the Yankees.

734
00:34:11.480 --> 00:34:15.039
<v Speaker 5>I don't think that's a bad thing. I mean, you do.

735
00:34:15.199 --> 00:34:18.119
<v Speaker 5>I wish we had one extra starter, five guys that

736
00:34:18.159 --> 00:34:19.920
<v Speaker 5>can go out there and tow the line and do

737
00:34:20.039 --> 00:34:23.440
<v Speaker 5>it the traditional way. Yeah, But the Padres found out

738
00:34:23.599 --> 00:34:27.119
<v Speaker 5>when they got into the tooth of the Dogs what happened, Well,

739
00:34:27.199 --> 00:34:29.239
<v Speaker 5>it didn't go too well for them because they were

740
00:34:29.280 --> 00:34:32.360
<v Speaker 5>facing a different guy every inning. Just about you had

741
00:34:32.559 --> 00:34:34.599
<v Speaker 5>a couple of guys, would you know, maybe bank in

742
00:34:34.679 --> 00:34:36.599
<v Speaker 5>a couple innings, but for the most part, it's a

743
00:34:36.639 --> 00:34:39.280
<v Speaker 5>new look and that's not good for the timing of

744
00:34:39.320 --> 00:34:39.599
<v Speaker 5>a hitter.

745
00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:44.760
<v Speaker 1>I love the whole Dog's mantra. I love the borrowing

746
00:34:44.880 --> 00:34:48.039
<v Speaker 1>of a postseason run. And you know, naming the group

747
00:34:48.119 --> 00:34:51.679
<v Speaker 1>after and solidarity together. I mean, you mentioned the Stuntman

748
00:34:51.760 --> 00:34:54.079
<v Speaker 1>back in nineteen eighty eight, you mentioned the run with

749
00:34:54.119 --> 00:34:55.719
<v Speaker 1>the White Sox and the group they called out of

750
00:34:55.760 --> 00:34:58.719
<v Speaker 1>the Bullpen. I mean, it's it's something that's pretty cool,

751
00:34:58.920 --> 00:35:02.159
<v Speaker 1>and it's it's something you don't see a lot. But yeah,

752
00:35:02.199 --> 00:35:04.679
<v Speaker 1>for this Dodgers team, this group, I mean, with all

753
00:35:04.719 --> 00:35:07.920
<v Speaker 1>the superstars, they have to see that group of relievers,

754
00:35:08.199 --> 00:35:12.039
<v Speaker 1>the bullpen guys come together. It's almost fitting though, once

755
00:35:12.079 --> 00:35:14.800
<v Speaker 1>you think about it. A lot of unsung heroes down there,

756
00:35:14.920 --> 00:35:16.519
<v Speaker 1>a lot of guys who are at the back end

757
00:35:16.559 --> 00:35:19.400
<v Speaker 1>of their career, guys trying to win championships late in

758
00:35:19.440 --> 00:35:23.280
<v Speaker 1>their career, Guys tried to establish themselves, re establish themselves

759
00:35:23.360 --> 00:35:26.960
<v Speaker 1>like Brent Honeywell Junior and Anthony Bonda, who the Dodgers

760
00:35:27.039 --> 00:35:30.199
<v Speaker 1>picked up mid season. Names you don't know, like Ben Casparius.

761
00:35:31.360 --> 00:35:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Just unsung heroes down there doing the job and doing

762
00:35:34.480 --> 00:35:36.840
<v Speaker 1>the job that more than they thought they'd be doing

763
00:35:36.880 --> 00:35:37.559
<v Speaker 1>here in October.

764
00:35:37.719 --> 00:35:40.760
<v Speaker 5>And it's amazing how much the game has changed. It

765
00:35:40.960 --> 00:35:43.159
<v Speaker 5>used to be, you know, those guys down in the bullpen,

766
00:35:43.239 --> 00:35:46.119
<v Speaker 5>you had guys that would mop up because the expectation

767
00:35:46.239 --> 00:35:48.639
<v Speaker 5>of the starter was to go nine. You'd have guys

768
00:35:48.679 --> 00:35:50.400
<v Speaker 5>that would mop up, guys that would just come in.

769
00:35:50.519 --> 00:35:53.280
<v Speaker 5>And the middle relievers were almost like triple A guys.

770
00:35:53.320 --> 00:35:55.519
<v Speaker 5>I mean, they were just like, you know, who cared.

771
00:35:55.559 --> 00:35:58.880
<v Speaker 5>I mean, now every guy has got a you know,

772
00:35:59.119 --> 00:36:02.159
<v Speaker 5>the target, two guys that this one guy can get out.

773
00:36:02.280 --> 00:36:05.039
<v Speaker 5>It seems so it's a much different game now. It's

774
00:36:05.119 --> 00:36:08.440
<v Speaker 5>much more technical. Uh, and it's much more it's more

775
00:36:08.559 --> 00:36:11.400
<v Speaker 5>it's much more plotted out, you know, because they go

776
00:36:11.519 --> 00:36:13.519
<v Speaker 5>before the game and they get up there, the brain trust,

777
00:36:13.760 --> 00:36:16.519
<v Speaker 5>and they say, okay, you know seventh and eighth inning.

778
00:36:16.880 --> 00:36:18.199
<v Speaker 5>You know, we know the closer is gonna be, but

779
00:36:18.280 --> 00:36:20.639
<v Speaker 5>seventheen thinning, what he got. Okay, let's let's get these

780
00:36:20.679 --> 00:36:23.480
<v Speaker 5>guys that we're gonna have, uh, you know, trying's gonna

781
00:36:23.519 --> 00:36:25.960
<v Speaker 5>get these three guys out, you know, and and so

782
00:36:26.079 --> 00:36:28.800
<v Speaker 5>on and so forth. They map out who they're gonna

783
00:36:28.800 --> 00:36:31.599
<v Speaker 5>get and that's how technical this is. Yeah, Dave Roberts

784
00:36:31.639 --> 00:36:34.199
<v Speaker 5>said it. They asked, well, what was your plan late

785
00:36:34.239 --> 00:36:36.320
<v Speaker 5>in the game, and he said, I had nine outs

786
00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:38.599
<v Speaker 5>to get and it was gonna be Daniel Hudson and

787
00:36:38.800 --> 00:36:41.880
<v Speaker 5>Blake trying in that combination. And then to ask Blake

788
00:36:41.920 --> 00:36:43.960
<v Speaker 5>trying to go back out there and get a two out,

789
00:36:44.320 --> 00:36:48.440
<v Speaker 5>say excuse me, two innings save was fantastic. He hits stuff,

790
00:36:49.280 --> 00:36:52.880
<v Speaker 5>tim It's wicked. It's I'm telling you coming from somebody

791
00:36:52.920 --> 00:36:56.920
<v Speaker 5>used to hit that stuff is wicked. I mean, you

792
00:36:56.960 --> 00:36:58.559
<v Speaker 5>don't want to The only thing that you can hope

793
00:36:58.599 --> 00:37:03.119
<v Speaker 5>for on against trying is that he hangs one. He

794
00:37:03.239 --> 00:37:06.920
<v Speaker 5>makes a mistake. He's throwing that slider and and he

795
00:37:07.679 --> 00:37:08.920
<v Speaker 5>gets it up and he does it, you know, he

796
00:37:08.960 --> 00:37:11.079
<v Speaker 5>tries to snap it off too hard and he just

797
00:37:11.400 --> 00:37:13.599
<v Speaker 5>gives a cement mixer up there and he hangs one.

798
00:37:13.880 --> 00:37:16.000
<v Speaker 5>That's the only chance you got because if his his

799
00:37:16.119 --> 00:37:19.119
<v Speaker 5>stuff's working, if it's going down with some tilt and

800
00:37:19.199 --> 00:37:20.639
<v Speaker 5>going down on the zone and it has got the

801
00:37:20.719 --> 00:37:23.639
<v Speaker 5>action on the ball, forget it. And look he's throwing

802
00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:25.719
<v Speaker 5>ninety seven ninety eight. He's not throwing as hard as

803
00:37:25.719 --> 00:37:28.119
<v Speaker 5>he can either. I can promise you he's got more

804
00:37:28.239 --> 00:37:30.800
<v Speaker 5>in there, but the ball probably wouldn't have the same

805
00:37:30.840 --> 00:37:34.519
<v Speaker 5>action if he's throwing it harder. Actually, there's a certain

806
00:37:34.519 --> 00:37:36.960
<v Speaker 5>speed where it works, and he's figured it out. Bro,

807
00:37:37.239 --> 00:37:39.079
<v Speaker 5>He's figured it out, and that's where he's staying.

808
00:37:39.400 --> 00:37:41.480
<v Speaker 1>Eric in Hollywood, wrap things up on this Monday. You
