00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:03.720
<v Speaker 1>And now your host for Marongo Casino Dodgers on dech.

2
00:00:06.400 --> 00:00:12.400
<v Speaker 2>Tam Chase, Hi, everybody, and welcome in to Morongo Casino

3
00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:15.960
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers on Deck. Hope you're well on this Thursday night

4
00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:19.679
<v Speaker 2>here in southern California. Where you're Los Angeles Dodgers. They

5
00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:23.480
<v Speaker 2>currently sit at ninety four and sixty four on this season,

6
00:00:23.559 --> 00:00:27.160
<v Speaker 2>first place atop the division, with four games to go

7
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:31.960
<v Speaker 2>and a magic number of two. Tonight's this series finale

8
00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:34.880
<v Speaker 2>against the San Diego Padres. They have split the first

9
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:38.159
<v Speaker 2>two games. It was San Diego tonight. A series win

10
00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:41.920
<v Speaker 2>would clinch the division with Walker Rueler on the mound,

11
00:00:41.960 --> 00:00:45.520
<v Speaker 2>first pitch coming up at seven ten. Between then and now,

12
00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:48.119
<v Speaker 2>we have got a lot to get to here on

13
00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Wrongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, you're gonna hear from the

14

15
00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:57.320
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers injury news with yet another arm going on the

16
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:00.520
<v Speaker 2>injured list, but they do get back a catcher off

17
00:01:00.560 --> 00:01:03.320
<v Speaker 2>the il Moore on that coming up, David Massego's one

18
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:07.040
<v Speaker 2>on one with former Dodger catcher now advisor with the Padres,

19
00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:08.799
<v Speaker 2>A j Ellis.

20
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:10.519
<v Speaker 3>We got your Dodgers magical moment.

21
00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:13.159
<v Speaker 2>Shortly, we'll check in with Kirsten Watson in In just a

22
00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:15.799
<v Speaker 2>few minutes, we'll head out to the Gallpin Motors broadcast

23
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:19.319
<v Speaker 2>booth with Steven Nelson and Rick Monday.

24
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:19.599
<v Speaker 3>Well.

25
00:01:19.719 --> 00:01:23.599
<v Speaker 2>Last night a great pitching matchup between Dylan Ceas and

26
00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:27.200
<v Speaker 2>Jack Flariting. The Dodgers actually got to cease early tay

27
00:01:27.239 --> 00:01:30.239
<v Speaker 2>Oscar Hernandez and RBI single in the bottom of the

28
00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:33.760
<v Speaker 2>first scoring show Hey Otani, and just like that the

29
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:36.879
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers had a one to nothing lead. But as quickly

30
00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:39.359
<v Speaker 2>as they took the lead, Jack Flerny gave it back

31
00:01:39.680 --> 00:01:42.200
<v Speaker 2>with a two run top half of the second inning

32
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:45.159
<v Speaker 2>for the Padres. As they did the night before, they

33
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:47.959
<v Speaker 2>answered the Dodgers plus one to take it two to

34
00:01:48.040 --> 00:01:49.920
<v Speaker 2>one lead. Then in the top half of the four

35
00:01:49.959 --> 00:01:51.959
<v Speaker 2>bay at the bottom half of the fourth inning, the

36
00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:54.840
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers got something going against Dylan cs and then Gavin

37
00:01:54.920 --> 00:01:55.799
<v Speaker 2>Lux tied it up.

38
00:01:56.640 --> 00:01:58.599
<v Speaker 4>Tennessee had overstrived recently.

39
00:01:58.959 --> 00:02:02.519
<v Speaker 5>Wind drive base hit in the center field green light

40
00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:05.159
<v Speaker 5>for Tommy Edmund to throw in from Merrill hits the

41
00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:07.319
<v Speaker 5>mound and bounces high two.

42
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:08.759
<v Speaker 6>Edmund slides in safe.

43
00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:09.879
<v Speaker 7>We're tied at two.

44
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:12.840
<v Speaker 2>That is the top tier play of the game sponsored

45
00:02:12.840 --> 00:02:15.719
<v Speaker 2>by Arco Quality top tier gas for less. Gavin lux

46
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:19.240
<v Speaker 2>delivers with an RBI single scoring Tommy Edmond, and we

47
00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:21.520
<v Speaker 2>were tied at two still In the bottom of the

48
00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:26.080
<v Speaker 2>fourth show Aotani and RBI double that scored LuxI, Dodgers

49
00:02:26.120 --> 00:02:27.800
<v Speaker 2>took a three to two lead.

50
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:29.319
<v Speaker 3>But in the top half of.

51
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:33.479
<v Speaker 2>The fifth inning, yet again, Jack Flaherty gave up the lead,

52
00:02:33.560 --> 00:02:36.280
<v Speaker 2>this time for Nando to tease. Junior hit one to

53
00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:41.319
<v Speaker 2>deep left center field four hundred and forty eight feet

54
00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:44.199
<v Speaker 2>almost out of the pavilion and left, and that tied

55
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:47.120
<v Speaker 2>the game at three. Back and forth go the Dodgers

56
00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:49.800
<v Speaker 2>and Padres, who would have to last laugh well, that

57
00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:51.960
<v Speaker 2>would belong to the Dodgers. In the bottom half of

58
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:54.639
<v Speaker 2>the sixth inning, the Dodgers able to get some damage

59
00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:55.840
<v Speaker 2>done thanks to Show Hey.

60
00:02:56.240 --> 00:02:59.400
<v Speaker 5>Two on two out, two balls, two strikes. The pitch

61
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:02.800
<v Speaker 5>from what Otani rits it on the ground in the

62
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:07.039
<v Speaker 5>right center field Smith hustling around third, He'll score without

63
00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:11.560
<v Speaker 5>a play another go ahead RBI for show Hey old Toni.

64
00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:18.159
<v Speaker 6>A two out single makes it four three Dodgers.

65
00:03:18.199 --> 00:03:21.879
<v Speaker 2>In the sixth Show Hey Otani delivers with an RBIs

66
00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:24.120
<v Speaker 2>single with the breath of fresh air. Moment of the

74
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:51.439
<v Speaker 2>nothing fair about what Shoeyotani did last night. Twice drive

75
00:03:51.520 --> 00:03:53.360
<v Speaker 2>it in runs to give the Dodgers a lead. This

76
00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:55.960
<v Speaker 2>time it counted for the Dodgers, who took a four

77
00:03:56.000 --> 00:03:57.960
<v Speaker 2>to three lead, and then the bullpen took over the

78
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:00.319
<v Speaker 2>rest of the way. Vessia put up a zero, Phillips

79
00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:02.039
<v Speaker 2>put up a zero. Try and put up a zero.

80
00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:04.800
<v Speaker 2>Michael Kopek got the ninth inning, struck out a batter,

81
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:06.759
<v Speaker 2>walked a batter, but got out of it as a

82
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:09.719
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers go on and beat the Padres last night four

83
00:04:09.759 --> 00:04:11.759
<v Speaker 2>to three. Alex Vessi against the win out of the

84
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:15.120
<v Speaker 2>bullpen Michael Kopek gets saved number fifteen and the Dodgers

85
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:17.519
<v Speaker 2>get two games closer to clinch of the division.

86
00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:19.279
<v Speaker 3>Now ninety four and sixty four.

87
00:04:19.319 --> 00:04:22.079
<v Speaker 2>The magic number down to two and Walker Bueller on

88
00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:24.439
<v Speaker 2>the mount tonight in this series finale against San Diego.

89
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:26.439
<v Speaker 2>First pitch of seven ten and with more we head

90
00:04:26.439 --> 00:04:28.879
<v Speaker 2>out to the Galvin Motors broadcast booth as we welcome

91
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:30.839
<v Speaker 2>in Steven Nelson head Rick Monday.

92
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:34.680
<v Speaker 5>Guys, Yes, Tim, it all comes down to this, the

93
00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:39.879
<v Speaker 5>final regular season home game at Dodgers Stadium, in the

94
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:44.360
<v Speaker 5>final game of this pivotal three game set against the

95
00:04:44.360 --> 00:04:48.480
<v Speaker 5>Padres Rick Monday. The Dodgers with a win tonight would

96
00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:50.120
<v Speaker 5>wrap up the National League.

97
00:04:49.920 --> 00:04:51.360
<v Speaker 4>West and to be able to do it at home,

98
00:04:51.399 --> 00:04:54.480
<v Speaker 4>I mean the magic number is two and obviously a

99
00:04:54.519 --> 00:04:57.240
<v Speaker 4>big victory in last night's ball game, rebounding from a

100
00:04:57.279 --> 00:04:59.439
<v Speaker 4>disappointing loss in Game one of the series, winning it

101
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:02.600
<v Speaker 4>by a score to free. The bullpen stood tall last

102
00:05:02.680 --> 00:05:05.920
<v Speaker 4>night's ballgame, and you look at Jack Flaherning, you know

103
00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:08.279
<v Speaker 4>he goes to the five inning, three runs on only

104
00:05:08.360 --> 00:05:11.600
<v Speaker 4>four hits, struck out five as well. The Dodgers played

105
00:05:11.879 --> 00:05:14.439
<v Speaker 4>with a lot more electricity last night and being able

106
00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:16.839
<v Speaker 4>to do it, And I would imagine the electricity is

107
00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:19.160
<v Speaker 4>going to be running all around the stadium tonight because

108
00:05:19.160 --> 00:05:22.439
<v Speaker 4>they know full well not only a victory and being

109
00:05:22.480 --> 00:05:25.240
<v Speaker 4>able to clinch the Western Division, but this could be

110
00:05:25.319 --> 00:05:27.560
<v Speaker 4>a celebration for everybody. It's going to be a long

111
00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:29.279
<v Speaker 4>night anyway for the Dodgers. They are going to be

112
00:05:29.279 --> 00:05:31.959
<v Speaker 4>headed to Denver they take on the Rockies over the

113
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:35.279
<v Speaker 4>weekend to close out officially the regular season. But wouldn't

114
00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:37.279
<v Speaker 4>it be nice to have a little delay on the

115
00:05:37.319 --> 00:05:39.399
<v Speaker 4>takeoff time because of celebration here.

116
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:42.360
<v Speaker 5>I think that's something that everybody would sign up for.

117
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:46.240
<v Speaker 5>You talk about the electricity last night, and look, I

118
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:51.000
<v Speaker 5>hate to state the obvious year because we're talking about

119
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:55.319
<v Speaker 5>the National League MVP this year in Shohei Otani, but

120
00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:57.279
<v Speaker 5>he put the team on his back last night. Moll,

121
00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:02.040
<v Speaker 5>I mean two go ahead RBIs win and frankly, his

122
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:05.600
<v Speaker 5>fellow MVPs looked a little flat. The rest of the

123
00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:08.279
<v Speaker 5>lineup wasn't really generating much. I don't want to lose

124
00:06:08.279 --> 00:06:10.959
<v Speaker 5>sight of Tommy Edmunds double or lose track of what

125
00:06:11.000 --> 00:06:13.439
<v Speaker 5>the bullpen did, especially Blake Tryina in the eighth. But

126
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:17.120
<v Speaker 5>sho hey Otani with the bat and the emotion that

127
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:20.399
<v Speaker 5>we saw, that is something that I hope the Dodgers

128
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:21.800
<v Speaker 5>feed off of intnight's gin.

129
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:23.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'm glad he brought that up because what we

130
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:27.279
<v Speaker 4>see with show Hay is a very professional, almost compartmentalized

131
00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:30.879
<v Speaker 4>approach to his job. He keeps his emotions kind of

132
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:33.959
<v Speaker 4>bottle up. He's a private person. Understand that, because he's

133
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:37.279
<v Speaker 4>under the brightest light, whether it's here on the field,

134
00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:40.319
<v Speaker 4>whether it be from social standpoint, whatever it is. I mean,

135
00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:42.519
<v Speaker 4>he is a big, big deal. But for him to

136
00:06:42.600 --> 00:06:45.639
<v Speaker 4>explode with that emotion and not keep a pin up

137
00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:49.519
<v Speaker 4>in internal I thought it was wonderful. I think his

138
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:51.959
<v Speaker 4>team fed off of it. I think the crowd fed

139
00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:54.360
<v Speaker 4>off of it, and we're gonna find out what happens today.

140
00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:57.199
<v Speaker 4>I'm also glad he brought up Tommy Edmund because with

141
00:06:57.319 --> 00:07:00.839
<v Speaker 4>the injury to Miguel Rojas last night, listen to growing,

142
00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:04.240
<v Speaker 4>He's not in that lineup tonight, just precautionary. Edmund has

143
00:07:04.279 --> 00:07:06.279
<v Speaker 4>really been able to do a good job. You know,

144
00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:09.839
<v Speaker 4>the other guy, Gavin Lux Now Luck's got a couple

145
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:12.480
<v Speaker 4>of base hits last night, drove in a run and

146
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.759
<v Speaker 4>they desperately need his bat to come alive. He's been

147
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:18.480
<v Speaker 4>kind of a slump, if you will, a dry spot

148
00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:20.959
<v Speaker 4>a better way to put it from a hitter standpoint.

149
00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:23.560
<v Speaker 4>But there are some positive things that need to keep

150
00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:26.519
<v Speaker 4>going because you can clench it tonight, but that's only

151
00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:30.240
<v Speaker 4>a precursor to postseason and they still have some accomplishments

152
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:31.279
<v Speaker 4>to really achieve.

153
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:31.639
<v Speaker 6>A huge job.

154
00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:33.480
<v Speaker 5>As we get it back to you, Tim, there are

155
00:07:33.720 --> 00:07:37.759
<v Speaker 5>some bad updates from an injury standpoint heading into this

156
00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:42.120
<v Speaker 5>finale against the Padres. First and foremost, Miguel Rojas, it's

157
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:45.920
<v Speaker 5>a torn left adductor. Torn left adductor. He got a

158
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:49.279
<v Speaker 5>shot for it. An MRI confirmed that diagnosis. It is

159
00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:53.160
<v Speaker 5>something that meggi Row plans to play through the rest

160
00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:55.639
<v Speaker 5>of the year. He's obviously not playing tonight as well

161
00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:58.480
<v Speaker 5>you just stated, but meggi Row torn left adductor and

162
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:01.199
<v Speaker 5>he's gonna try and tough it out. On the pitching standpoint,

163
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:04.519
<v Speaker 5>Bruce dar Gratterol going on the injure list with right

164
00:08:04.680 --> 00:08:08.560
<v Speaker 5>shoulder inflammation. The last time we saw Bruce dar five pitches,

165
00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:12.800
<v Speaker 5>four strikes. I mean, he was outstanding when we saw

166
00:08:12.879 --> 00:08:16.000
<v Speaker 5>him the other night, but again, Bruce dar Bozuka back

167
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:19.720
<v Speaker 5>on the il Clayton Kershaw. He's not gonna be viable

168
00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:22.000
<v Speaker 5>for a couple of weeks. That's the exact quote from

169
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:24.720
<v Speaker 5>Dave Roberts as well. So I hate to end on

170
00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:28.000
<v Speaker 5>a bad note, Tim, but those are I guess, the

171
00:08:28.079 --> 00:08:30.639
<v Speaker 5>nuts and bolts of the injury news coming out of

172
00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:32.840
<v Speaker 5>the Dodger duck out ahead of this Thursday night game.

173
00:08:32.879 --> 00:08:33.879

<v Speaker 6>Here comes luck.

199
00:09:55.960 --> 00:09:59.320
<v Speaker 5>Rojas has the stop side hot RBI double for show.

200
00:09:59.399 --> 00:10:02.200
<v Speaker 6>Hey old time. The throw in skips away from the

201
00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:02.919
<v Speaker 6>cutoff man.

202
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:07.519
<v Speaker 5>Roja stays on third, but it's now three two Dodgers

203
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:11.559

<v Speaker 5>Rips it on the ground into right center field.

207

<v Speaker 6>Smith hustling around third, He'll score.

208
00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:24.360
<v Speaker 5>Without a play, another go ahead RBI for show.

209
00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:27.919
<v Speaker 4>Hey, old Tani, I still don't think that they would

210
00:10:27.919 --> 00:10:29.720
<v Speaker 4>throw through the second padre infield.

211
00:10:29.759 --> 00:10:30.960
<v Speaker 6>Back there goes Otani.

212
00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:34.759

213
00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:35.159

<v Speaker 5>Hey, no, that's stolen base number fifty six for Old Tani.

215

00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:11.360
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Kirsten now joins us before the series finale Dodgers

226
00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:13.960
<v Speaker 2>and the Padres. And before we get to this matchup,

227
00:11:14.039 --> 00:11:18.720
<v Speaker 2>Kearston some injury news, Bruce dar graderol on the IL,

228
00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:22.679
<v Speaker 2>Austin Barnes off the IL, and what's going on with kersh.

229
00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:25.799
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, So let's start with Bruce dar gratterol So for him,

230
00:11:25.840 --> 00:11:28.080
<v Speaker 9>as we know, to start the season he's been dealing

231
00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:31.080
<v Speaker 9>with shoulder inflammation. He obviously came back too quite some

232
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:32.639
<v Speaker 9>time for him to get back. I think there were

233
00:11:32.679 --> 00:11:35.000
<v Speaker 9>even some question marks of would he return the season

234
00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:37.440
<v Speaker 9>he came back, he was a fresh arm. He has been,

235
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:40.519
<v Speaker 9>I mean lights out for the team since returning. But

236
00:11:40.720 --> 00:11:43.519
<v Speaker 9>if you go back to his outing in Game one

237
00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:46.759
<v Speaker 9>of this Padre series, he threw two innings or an

238
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:51.399
<v Speaker 9>updown and he was fantastic, very quick outing, just efficient.

239
00:11:51.679 --> 00:11:53.879
<v Speaker 9>But the next day Dave Roberts was saying that he

240
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:57.960
<v Speaker 9>wasn't able to play catge and so they did a scan.

241
00:11:58.120 --> 00:12:00.960
<v Speaker 9>It's showing some more inflammation what he's been dealing with

242
00:12:01.080 --> 00:12:04.039
<v Speaker 9>all year, and so there are currently some question marks

243
00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:07.159
<v Speaker 9>around him as to what this means for October. He's

244
00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:09.799
<v Speaker 9>obviously done for the rest of the regular season. If

245
00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:12.039
<v Speaker 9>they can get his arm moving to be an option

246
00:12:12.159 --> 00:12:14.600
<v Speaker 9>come October, then they will do just that. But until

247
00:12:14.639 --> 00:12:19.120
<v Speaker 9>the inflammation goes down, he's truly at a standstill. So

248
00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:22.039
<v Speaker 9>unfortunate news, just considering how hard he worked to get back.

249
00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:24.639
<v Speaker 9>Obviously we had the scare on the mound. He ends

250
00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:27.320
<v Speaker 9>up being fine and then to have this news is unfortunate,

251
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:29.480
<v Speaker 9>especially as being so close to the postseason.

252
00:12:29.799 --> 00:12:31.240
<v Speaker 6>Then you've got Clayton Kershaw.

253
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:34.159
<v Speaker 9>He is also at a standstill at the moment, and

254
00:12:34.200 --> 00:12:36.000
<v Speaker 9>I feel like I'm giving a bunch of fat news.

255
00:12:36.039 --> 00:12:39.320
<v Speaker 9>But the positive with Clayton Kershaw has he's been moving

256
00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:41.639
<v Speaker 9>his arm this entire time. As much as he's been

257
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:43.600
<v Speaker 9>dealing with that bone spurs and the pain that it's

258
00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:46.000
<v Speaker 9>been bothering him, the toe is not at one hundred

259
00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:48.720
<v Speaker 9>percent just yet, and that's been the biggest issue because

260
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:51.399
<v Speaker 9>he can't properly throw the ball and with the same

261
00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:54.840
<v Speaker 9>effort and push off his foot and things like that.

262
00:12:54.879 --> 00:12:57.519
<v Speaker 9>He's tried to make some changes, whether it's moving a spike,

263
00:12:57.639 --> 00:13:00.759
<v Speaker 9>whether it's putting a cover or cushion at the top

264
00:13:00.840 --> 00:13:03.559
<v Speaker 9>of the toe of the foot of his cleat. It

265
00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:06.200
<v Speaker 9>just hasn't necessarily been working just yet. So he's going

266
00:13:06.240 --> 00:13:08.039
<v Speaker 9>to at least need a few more weeks, and that

267
00:13:08.080 --> 00:13:11.080
<v Speaker 9>means he's likely going to be down for the NLDS,

268
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:13.480
<v Speaker 9>but they're going to keep trying to keep him going.

269
00:13:13.519 --> 00:13:15.360
<v Speaker 9>So if he can be an option, whether it's the

270
00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:18.399
<v Speaker 9>CS World Series, if you think ahead he's hoping he

271
00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:21.480
<v Speaker 9>can be a part of this postseason run. You mentioned

272
00:13:21.480 --> 00:13:23.679
<v Speaker 9>Austin Barnes's back, Dave robertson that he should be back

273
00:13:23.679 --> 00:13:26.559
<v Speaker 9>in the lineup tomorrow, so he's doing better. And then

274
00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:29.279
<v Speaker 9>there's also we didn't even mention this, there's also Miguel Rojas.

275
00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:32.000
<v Speaker 9>So he last night came out of the game. He's

276
00:13:32.039 --> 00:13:36.559
<v Speaker 9>been dealing with some groin tightness and he actually had

277
00:13:36.639 --> 00:13:39.399
<v Speaker 9>a scan this morning and showed an adductor strain, a

278
00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:42.320
<v Speaker 9>possible tear, but it's something that he's been dealing with

279
00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:45.639
<v Speaker 9>all season long for the most part, so he had

280
00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:49.720
<v Speaker 9>a shot. He's hoping that that will be all he needs.

281
00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:51.960
<v Speaker 9>Since he has been dealing with it, he's been playing

282
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:55.440
<v Speaker 9>on it, and so he is someone though who is

283
00:13:55.519 --> 00:13:58.159
<v Speaker 9>so adamant that he is returning and he wants to

284
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:00.360
<v Speaker 9>be ready for this postseason run. So if you look

285
00:14:00.399 --> 00:14:02.639
<v Speaker 9>at anything right now, it's just you got to show today.

286
00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:04.679
<v Speaker 9>Give him a couple of days. Obviously, Colorado is a

287
00:14:04.679 --> 00:14:06.759
<v Speaker 9>tough place when it comes to body recovery, so he's

288
00:14:06.799 --> 00:14:09.480
<v Speaker 9>likely going to be down there, but just be ready

289
00:14:09.480 --> 00:14:11.000
<v Speaker 9>for October because this team is going to need.

290
00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:15.559
<v Speaker 2>They're gonna need everybody ready to go for this postseason push,

291
00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:16.279
<v Speaker 2>no doubt about it.

292

327
00:15:55.240 --> 00:15:57.039
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's head back out to Dodgers Stadium and

328
00:15:57.080 --> 00:15:58.000
<v Speaker 2>check in with the Dodgers skipper.

329
00:15:58.159 --> 00:16:00.240
<v Speaker 3>Hey.

330
00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:03.159
<v Speaker 8>Questions for Dave, Dave, can you just describe Dave?

331
00:16:03.240 --> 00:16:05.039
<v Speaker 3>Can you talk about the pressure.

332
00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:09.360
<v Speaker 10>In the dugouts with Dave Roberts, Dave chance to clinch

333
00:16:09.480 --> 00:16:10.320
<v Speaker 10>the division today?

334
00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:11.639
<v Speaker 3>What do you need to see from Walker?

335
00:16:11.679 --> 00:16:12.200
<v Speaker 10>And he's outing.

336
00:16:14.039 --> 00:16:17.679
<v Speaker 11>I think with Walker, he knows these guys well, they

337
00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:21.799
<v Speaker 11>know him well. He's got to make pitches, he's got

338
00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:26.080
<v Speaker 11>to chip some innings, he's got to sequence, he's got

339
00:16:26.120 --> 00:16:31.799
<v Speaker 11>to pitch in different quadrants and make pitches. So I

340
00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:34.960
<v Speaker 11>know that he's on regular rest. I think he's excited

341
00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:38.480
<v Speaker 11>about that. He's excited about pitching in a meaningful game.

342
00:16:39.080 --> 00:16:42.639
<v Speaker 11>And we got to play good defense behind him and

343
00:16:43.200 --> 00:16:44.440
<v Speaker 11>put some cooking numbers up there.

344
00:16:44.440 --> 00:16:45.799
<v Speaker 3>All right, there's Dave Roberts.

345
00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:48.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's important the Walker Buehler give him the best

346
00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:51.279
<v Speaker 2>effort this season from him. Dave Roberts down the dugout

366
00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:50.000
<v Speaker 1>Joining Tim Kats on Dodgers on Deck, I accept everybody

367
00:17:50.039 --> 00:17:54.440
<v Speaker 1>for who they are. This is Dodger insider David all

368
00:17:54.519 --> 00:17:55.039
<v Speaker 1>Right DV.

369
00:17:55.240 --> 00:17:58.200
<v Speaker 2>First two games and been pretty electric. The crowd has

370
00:17:58.240 --> 00:18:01.240
<v Speaker 2>been great, the games well, pretty good for the most part.

371
00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:03.119
<v Speaker 3>What do we expecting this finale tonight?

372
00:18:03.599 --> 00:18:06.880
<v Speaker 12>Well, the feeling around the Dodgers is they want to

373
00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:11.119
<v Speaker 12>close it out tonight and wrap up this NLS Division championship.

374
00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:15.559
<v Speaker 12>And look, the mood in that clubhouse is a lot

375
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:18.480
<v Speaker 12>different than what it was twenty four hours ago. Because

376
00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:22.240
<v Speaker 12>they knew they would be at a significant disadvantage. If

377
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:25.079
<v Speaker 12>they would have lost last night going into tonight, a

378
00:18:25.119 --> 00:18:27.319
<v Speaker 12>lot more pressure would have been on the Dodgers to

379
00:18:27.359 --> 00:18:30.440
<v Speaker 12>win tonight. But after winning last night, a lot of

380
00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:33.759
<v Speaker 12>pressure has been relieved because the Dodgers are very much

381
00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:37.720
<v Speaker 12>in control of this division. Worst case scenario, even if

382
00:18:37.759 --> 00:18:40.880
<v Speaker 12>they lose tonight, all they have to do is take

383
00:18:40.920 --> 00:18:44.000
<v Speaker 12>care of business in Denver and win two out of

384
00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:47.200
<v Speaker 12>three against the Rockies and they are the NLS champions.

385
00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:49.759
<v Speaker 3>Dave Walker Buehler gets the start tonight.

386
00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:52.119
<v Speaker 2>He's certainly not had the twenty twenty four that he

387
00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:55.000
<v Speaker 2>had hoped, but man, no better time than to turn

388
00:18:55.079 --> 00:18:56.119
<v Speaker 2>things around than tonight.

389
00:18:56.440 --> 00:18:57.720
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, it feels that way.

390
00:18:57.960 --> 00:19:00.319
<v Speaker 12>It's the right guy to have on the mound after

391
00:19:00.759 --> 00:19:04.000
<v Speaker 12>you know him having flashes of his old self at

392
00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:08.880
<v Speaker 12>different points in time this season, more rather than more

393
00:19:09.000 --> 00:19:13.599
<v Speaker 12>recently from Walker Buehler, especially in his last start in Atlanta.

394
00:19:13.759 --> 00:19:16.960
<v Speaker 12>So it kind of feels like the stars are aligned

395
00:19:17.400 --> 00:19:20.200
<v Speaker 12>to have the right guy on the mound on a

396
00:19:20.480 --> 00:19:24.119
<v Speaker 12>game where you can clinch the NLS championship and look,

397
00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:27.839
<v Speaker 12>Joe Musgrove, he's human. The Dodgers scored five runs off

398
00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:30.440
<v Speaker 12>of him earlier this year in two and two thirds innings,

399
00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:32.839
<v Speaker 12>So I feel like tonight is going to be a

400
00:19:32.920 --> 00:19:33.799
<v Speaker 12>high scoring game.

401
00:19:34.480 --> 00:19:37.240
<v Speaker 2>David is brought to you by our friends at four.

402
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:40.039
<v Speaker 2>There's choices in life, and Ford, of course, gives you

403
00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:42.039
<v Speaker 2>one of those choices with the F one to fifty

404
00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:45.079
<v Speaker 2>gas hybrid all electric tough. This march can only be

405
00:19:45.119 --> 00:19:48.519
<v Speaker 2>called the f one fifty. I'm looking at the lineup, David, No.

406
00:19:48.599 --> 00:19:52.759
<v Speaker 12>Keygay, Yeah, I'm a little surprised as well. Kei k Hernandez,

407
00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:54.880
<v Speaker 12>who has been on such a hot streak, has come

408
00:19:54.960 --> 00:19:57.359
<v Speaker 12>up with so many big hits here in the last

409
00:19:57.400 --> 00:20:00.839
<v Speaker 12>two weeks of the season. Not in see her field tonight.

410
00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:05.160
<v Speaker 12>With Miguel Rojas out because of that left growing injury,

411
00:20:05.559 --> 00:20:09.519
<v Speaker 12>Tommy Edmond had shortstop, Yes, but Key k Hernandez is

412
00:20:09.559 --> 00:20:12.680
<v Speaker 12>a much better defensive center fielder than Andy pa has.

413
00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:15.000
<v Speaker 12>And who else would you want to have in this

414
00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:18.440
<v Speaker 12>game against whoever is throwing right handed left handed? Throw

415
00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:21.839
<v Speaker 12>that out the window. You want your gamers out there,

416
00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:26.279
<v Speaker 12>and keyk Hernandez. When the Dodgers have needed somebody, they

417
00:20:26.359 --> 00:20:29.640
<v Speaker 12>always call upon Kik and he has delivered. I'm a

418
00:20:29.640 --> 00:20:32.279
<v Speaker 12>little surprised he's not starting in center field tonight.

419
00:20:32.400 --> 00:20:34.200
<v Speaker 3>David, what's the latest with Clayton Kershaw?

420
00:20:35.039 --> 00:20:37.720
<v Speaker 12>Well, he said, Well, Dave Roberts started to hint that

421
00:20:37.799 --> 00:20:41.079
<v Speaker 12>there are some other physical issues with Kershaw other than

422
00:20:41.519 --> 00:20:42.680
<v Speaker 12>his left big toe.

423
00:20:43.039 --> 00:20:44.400
<v Speaker 3>Oh, so myself and.

424
00:20:44.359 --> 00:20:48.440
<v Speaker 12>Other reporters waited for Kershaw to come to speak to

425
00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:50.960
<v Speaker 12>us and ask him whether or not there is any

426
00:20:51.000 --> 00:20:51.720
<v Speaker 12>other issues.

427
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:55.119
<v Speaker 13>You know, maybe maybe it'll feel better one day, and

428
00:20:55.160 --> 00:20:57.039
<v Speaker 13>so I just waiting for that day to happen. I

429
00:20:57.240 --> 00:20:58.960
<v Speaker 13>think compress at all or is it like just says

430
00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:00.960
<v Speaker 13>you keeping sort of throwing off fits or of staying same.

431
00:21:01.039 --> 00:21:05.680
<v Speaker 13>It's progressing, it's just been obviously not as fast as

432
00:21:05.720 --> 00:21:09.920
<v Speaker 13>I had hoped or wanted. But I mean there's slight improvements,

433
00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:12.880
<v Speaker 13>just like waking up in the morning and the pressure

434
00:21:12.920 --> 00:21:15.240
<v Speaker 13>I put on it, and like maybe, but it's just

435
00:21:15.319 --> 00:21:16.559
<v Speaker 13>not not there yet.

436
00:21:17.319 --> 00:21:17.559
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

437
00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:21.480
<v Speaker 12>So Kershaw obviously has the issue with the left big toe,

438
00:21:21.759 --> 00:21:26.119
<v Speaker 12>but there are no other arm issues with Kershaw right now,

439
00:21:26.160 --> 00:21:29.119
<v Speaker 12>and that's the reason why he's dialing it back because,

440
00:21:29.160 --> 00:21:32.440
<v Speaker 12>as you know, if you have a lower leg injury,

441
00:21:32.799 --> 00:21:36.519
<v Speaker 12>you start to compensate with your elbow with your shoulder,

442
00:21:36.839 --> 00:21:39.400
<v Speaker 12>and that's the last thing Kershaw wants to do. So

443
00:21:39.720 --> 00:21:42.960
<v Speaker 12>there is nothing other physically wrong with him, and he

444
00:21:43.079 --> 00:21:44.440
<v Speaker 12>just wants to keep it that way.

445
00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:46.200
<v Speaker 2>Let's hope it just stays of the toe and he

446
00:21:46.200 --> 00:21:48.119
<v Speaker 2>can come back with David appreciate it. We will check

447

<v Speaker 12>photographer Gene Fruth, who has done a remarkable job of

00:25:06.319 --> 00:25:09.440
<v Speaker 12>really bringing to light how women should be more part

504
00:25:09.480 --> 00:25:12.440
<v Speaker 12>of baseball. And there is a great documentary that is

505
00:25:12.480 --> 00:25:15.799
<v Speaker 12>going to debut on MLB Network between Games two and

506
00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:20.240
<v Speaker 12>three of the World Series. It's titled Women's Baseball Around

507
00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:23.440
<v Speaker 12>the World, See Her Be Her, And Gene is here

508
00:25:23.440 --> 00:25:26.079
<v Speaker 12>at Dodgers Stadium. Thank you so much for the time

509
00:25:26.160 --> 00:25:28.160
<v Speaker 12>and great to see you and Jeff Idelsent back at

<v Speaker 12>Dodger Stadium.

511
00:25:29.240 --> 00:25:31.920
<v Speaker 10>Oh, it's so fun to be back here and especially

512
00:25:32.000 --> 00:25:34.200
<v Speaker 10>talking about See Her Be Her. You know, it's come

513
00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:36.680
<v Speaker 10>We worked three years on this project and to be

514
00:25:36.799 --> 00:25:39.640
<v Speaker 10>here and now having it seen on the MLB Network

515
00:25:39.720 --> 00:25:42.039
<v Speaker 10>during the World Series. The only thing that could be

516
00:25:42.039 --> 00:25:44.839
<v Speaker 10>better is if we have the Dodgers playing in Games

517
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:45.400
<v Speaker 10>one and two.

518
00:25:45.799 --> 00:25:49.359
<v Speaker 12>That would be beautiful. Gene, But I'm just curious what

519
00:25:49.559 --> 00:25:53.640
<v Speaker 12>inspired this because it is so global, this documentary. It's

520
00:25:53.680 --> 00:25:57.279
<v Speaker 12>not just a little Midwest town. This is global, from

521
00:25:57.599 --> 00:25:59.880
<v Speaker 12>the United States to Canada to Yagan.

522
00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:04.759
<v Speaker 10>When I'm finishing up my second project, Grassroots Baseball Rose

523
00:26:04.839 --> 00:26:07.000
<v Speaker 10>sixty six, I got a chance to shoot an all

524
00:26:07.039 --> 00:26:10.319
<v Speaker 10>girls baseball game. Never shot at all girls baseball game

525
00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:13.720
<v Speaker 10>and not softball baseball, and it was such an experience.

526
00:26:13.759 --> 00:26:16.359
<v Speaker 10>I've always shot one girl on a little league team

527
00:26:16.440 --> 00:26:19.440
<v Speaker 10>with all boys and people say, oh, there's the girl. Look,

528
00:26:19.480 --> 00:26:21.279
<v Speaker 10>you know, there's a girl pitching tonight. Do you see

529
00:26:21.279 --> 00:26:23.960
<v Speaker 10>that girl on the right field this They were all

530
00:26:24.079 --> 00:26:27.359
<v Speaker 10>just athletes. It wasn't the girl. And the more girls

531
00:26:27.400 --> 00:26:30.680
<v Speaker 10>are growing in the sport, that just the more exciting

532
00:26:30.839 --> 00:26:34.000
<v Speaker 10>that this sport is becoming and why not? Why not girls?

533
00:26:34.319 --> 00:26:36.359
<v Speaker 10>And we're seeing all around the world, not just in

534
00:26:36.400 --> 00:26:38.880
<v Speaker 10>the United States, the sport girl for girls and women,

535
00:26:39.119 --> 00:26:41.160
<v Speaker 10>and girls are staying in the game longer, and they're

536
00:26:41.200 --> 00:26:43.519
<v Speaker 10>playing in high school and they're playing in college. So

537
00:26:44.119 --> 00:26:46.640
<v Speaker 10>just like all the other sports, women's sports are growing

538
00:26:46.680 --> 00:26:51.759
<v Speaker 10>and getting more popularity. Look at basketball, look at hockey, yeah,

539
00:26:51.799 --> 00:26:55.440
<v Speaker 10>and soccer. So here's girls baseball and women's baseball.

540
00:26:56.119 --> 00:26:59.559
<v Speaker 12>Gene Fruth is our guest. The documentary is titled See

541
00:26:59.559 --> 00:27:02.680
<v Speaker 12>Her Be Her. It's on women's baseball around the world,

542
00:27:02.720 --> 00:27:05.359
<v Speaker 12>and I just shared with you I am a proud

543
00:27:05.480 --> 00:27:09.359
<v Speaker 12>girl dad. My daughter Adriana would love to play baseball.

544
00:27:09.559 --> 00:27:12.920
<v Speaker 12>Do you feel like this may inspire the next generation

545
00:27:13.000 --> 00:27:14.240
<v Speaker 12>of women and little girls.

546
00:27:14.680 --> 00:27:16.759
<v Speaker 10>It really I have a lot of women who will

547
00:27:16.759 --> 00:27:19.359
<v Speaker 10>come over to me and say, hey, you know, my

548
00:27:19.559 --> 00:27:22.160
<v Speaker 10>daughter wants to play baseball. What do you think are

549
00:27:22.160 --> 00:27:26.119
<v Speaker 10>their opportunities? And I say, please, please encourage her and

550
00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:29.079
<v Speaker 10>help her get those opportunities, because that's how the sport

551
00:27:29.119 --> 00:27:31.480
<v Speaker 10>is going to grow. Help her with her dream, allow

552
00:27:31.559 --> 00:27:33.799
<v Speaker 10>her to dream. And I really hope with this film

553
00:27:33.920 --> 00:27:36.119
<v Speaker 10>little girls will see it and they'll know that they

554
00:27:36.160 --> 00:27:36.920
<v Speaker 10>also can.

555
00:27:36.799 --> 00:27:40.240

<v Speaker 12>of the country he is working from home in. And

600
00:29:46.400 --> 00:29:49.079
<v Speaker 12>that is one of the great all time guys that

601
00:29:49.119 --> 00:29:51.680
<v Speaker 12>you will ever meet, and certainly one of the more

602
00:29:51.759 --> 00:29:55.640
<v Speaker 12>successful Dodger catchers in recent history. And that is the

603
00:29:55.680 --> 00:30:00.160
<v Speaker 12>one and only special assistant to the special GM to

604
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:03.799
<v Speaker 12>the San Diego Padres aj Preller, And that is our

605
00:30:03.880 --> 00:30:06.559
<v Speaker 12>aj A j ellis great to see you back at

606
00:30:06.599 --> 00:30:07.559
<v Speaker 12>Dodger Stadium.

607
00:30:08.240 --> 00:30:09.119
<v Speaker 3>Good to be with you, Dave.

608
00:30:09.200 --> 00:30:12.960
<v Speaker 14>That was probably one of the worst introductions I've ever heard.

609
00:30:13.920 --> 00:30:15.880
<v Speaker 14>I don't know what you were going for with that.

610
00:30:16.759 --> 00:30:20.480
<v Speaker 14>It is good to be with a special assistant like yourself.

611
00:30:20.839 --> 00:30:22.480
<v Speaker 14>I don't know who you assist and I feel bad

612
00:30:22.519 --> 00:30:24.839
<v Speaker 14>for that person. But it's great to be back in

613
00:30:24.920 --> 00:30:28.440
<v Speaker 14>Dodger Stadium. It's crazy. It's my first time back at

614
00:30:28.440 --> 00:30:33.920
<v Speaker 14>the ballparks in twenty nineteen, and it just doesn't take

615
00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:36.160
<v Speaker 14>longery be reminded of what a special place this is

616
00:30:36.279 --> 00:30:40.319
<v Speaker 14>and to be the atmosphere of any Dodger game, let

617
00:30:40.359 --> 00:30:43.400
<v Speaker 14>alone one that has so much playoff implications. Just spent

618
00:30:43.480 --> 00:30:46.240
<v Speaker 14>a great, a great few days catching up and watching baseball.

619
00:30:46.519 --> 00:30:49.039
<v Speaker 12>What's it like to come back here obviously working for

620
00:30:49.079 --> 00:30:52.480
<v Speaker 12>the Padres Dodgers and Padres battling for the NL West.

621
00:30:52.759 --> 00:30:55.640
<v Speaker 12>What's it like as you walk around the stadium with

622
00:30:55.720 --> 00:30:58.759
<v Speaker 12>Mike Shilp before the game, to walk in front of

623
00:30:58.759 --> 00:31:01.359
<v Speaker 12>that dugout and just think about all the great times

624
00:31:01.400 --> 00:31:01.839
<v Speaker 12>you had.

625
00:31:02.119 --> 00:31:03.920
<v Speaker 14>Yeah, it all comes back, you know, floods back and

626
00:31:03.960 --> 00:31:07.079
<v Speaker 14>actually talking with Mike about some of those memories. And

627
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:09.279
<v Speaker 14>you know, he he'd works along with the San Louis Cardinals,

628
00:31:09.319 --> 00:31:11.759
<v Speaker 14>and you know, even when he was just in player

629
00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:14.799
<v Speaker 14>development at the time, he still has a great recollection

630
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:17.720
<v Speaker 14>recollection of a lot of those those battles we had.

631
00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:20.599
<v Speaker 14>Thinking about the you know two thousand and nine, uh

632
00:31:20.759 --> 00:31:24.200
<v Speaker 14>Mark Loretto walk off after you know, the Matt Holliday

633
00:31:24.200 --> 00:31:26.680
<v Speaker 14>misqu and left field and and and then talking about

634
00:31:26.680 --> 00:31:29.240
<v Speaker 14>then in some of the tougher games in the against

635
00:31:29.240 --> 00:31:32.119
<v Speaker 14>the Cardinals in the postseason as well. But it's special

636
00:31:32.119 --> 00:31:34.319
<v Speaker 14>to be back, especially be sitting here with you right

637
00:31:34.319 --> 00:31:38.400
<v Speaker 14>now watching a Clayton Kershaw retrospective here on Sports in LA.

638
00:31:38.839 --> 00:31:41.240
<v Speaker 14>And I'm just wonderful to be back and uh spend

639
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:42.799
<v Speaker 14>time with him, and spend time with a lot of

640
00:31:42.799 --> 00:31:46.359
<v Speaker 14>other my former Dodger teammates and uh and then some

641
00:31:46.400 --> 00:31:49.319
<v Speaker 14>of the staff that I still have a great fondness for.

642
00:31:49.759 --> 00:31:53.839
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, it's fitting that we're seeing Kershaw's top ten highlights

643
00:31:53.880 --> 00:31:56.960
<v Speaker 12>of his career. You were part of so many, including

644
00:31:57.319 --> 00:31:59.799
<v Speaker 12>his No hitter. We saw you be part of that

645
00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:03.799
<v Speaker 12>special as well. But reconnecting with him here in Los Angeles,

646
00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:08.960
<v Speaker 12>what do you cherish the most about your friendship with Kershaw?

647
00:32:09.319 --> 00:32:12.039
<v Speaker 14>Yeah, I mean, I think it's definitely you know, I

648
00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:14.079
<v Speaker 14>think it's was when this when this trip came out,

649
00:32:14.079 --> 00:32:16.400
<v Speaker 14>it was one of the things that I circled to

650
00:32:16.400 --> 00:32:18.640
<v Speaker 14>be what I was looking forward to the most. And

651
00:32:19.000 --> 00:32:22.200
<v Speaker 14>we've evolved to a point where very little of our

652
00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:25.799
<v Speaker 14>conversations to revolve around baseball, it's more about family and

653
00:32:26.200 --> 00:32:29.480
<v Speaker 14>life and being a dad and being a being a husband,

654
00:32:29.519 --> 00:32:32.960
<v Speaker 14>and you know what's next, and so it's just it's

655
00:32:32.960 --> 00:32:35.599
<v Speaker 14>just great and we have that that shared history, those

656
00:32:35.599 --> 00:32:39.119
<v Speaker 14>shared moments, and but beyond that, it's it's it's it's

657
00:32:39.200 --> 00:32:44.880
<v Speaker 14>definitely transitioned to a relationship as as friends, even beyond

658
00:32:44.920 --> 00:32:46.440
<v Speaker 14>more than what it was. His teammates A.

659
00:32:46.599 --> 00:32:50.440
<v Speaker 12>J Ellis was Kershaw's big brother basically in the minor leagues.

660
00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:54.240
<v Speaker 12>They came up together, and obviously you were a shepherd

661
00:32:54.279 --> 00:32:57.559
<v Speaker 12>to him for a long time. Can you just describe

662
00:32:58.000 --> 00:33:00.720
<v Speaker 12>where he was even in twenty two twelve to where

663
00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:03.519
<v Speaker 12>he's at right now and just how he's evolved as

664
00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:06.759
<v Speaker 12>a person as a pitcher, and how he's so determined

665
00:33:06.759 --> 00:33:09.480
<v Speaker 12>to still even pitch at this stage of his career.

666
00:33:09.799 --> 00:33:11.559
<v Speaker 14>Yeah, I mean, without a doubt. I mean, you know,

667
00:33:11.640 --> 00:33:13.920
<v Speaker 14>he's one of the most consistent people I've ever been around.

668
00:33:15.079 --> 00:33:18.119
<v Speaker 14>That consistency of that determination was evident going back to

669
00:33:18.119 --> 00:33:20.759
<v Speaker 14>our minor league days, his teammates together, and just the

670
00:33:20.759 --> 00:33:23.640
<v Speaker 14>way that he approached his craft, the seriousness that he

671
00:33:23.680 --> 00:33:26.039
<v Speaker 14>took it, the diligence he had on a day and

672
00:33:26.119 --> 00:33:29.799
<v Speaker 14>day out, basis. He was very meticulous about what he

673
00:33:29.839 --> 00:33:31.279
<v Speaker 14>was going to do and what he continues to do

674
00:33:31.319 --> 00:33:34.480
<v Speaker 14>on a daily basis. And he goes out and whether

675
00:33:34.519 --> 00:33:37.799
<v Speaker 14>he's pitching in a game or doing his his pregame

676
00:33:37.839 --> 00:33:40.920
<v Speaker 14>work on a field on a day's not pitching, he's

677
00:33:40.920 --> 00:33:44.599
<v Speaker 14>going to attack that with a focus and a concentration

678
00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:49.319
<v Speaker 14>that allows him to maximize every single day and turn

679
00:33:49.400 --> 00:33:50.920
<v Speaker 14>maximize a career. A.

680
00:33:51.079 --> 00:33:54.279
<v Speaker 12>J Ellis was part of one of my favorite Dodger teams,

681
00:33:54.359 --> 00:33:57.839
<v Speaker 12>the twenty thirteen Dodgers, who were so special. It was

682
00:33:57.880 --> 00:34:02.079
<v Speaker 12>the first of this run of twelve consecutive postseason berths.

683
00:34:02.559 --> 00:34:05.240
<v Speaker 12>AJ when you look back at your Dodger career, was

684
00:34:05.279 --> 00:34:08.280
<v Speaker 12>twenty thirteen maybe the most special and the most talented.

685
00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:11.639
<v Speaker 12>Which team, when you look back at your career was

686
00:34:11.800 --> 00:34:14.480
<v Speaker 12>the one that was truest and gearest to your heart?

687
00:34:15.800 --> 00:34:17.280
<v Speaker 14>I think, Dave, I think you're exactly right. I think

688
00:34:17.280 --> 00:34:20.840
<v Speaker 14>that twenty thirteen team really stands out a lot of

689
00:34:20.840 --> 00:34:24.480
<v Speaker 14>circumstances around that. It's kind of funny. We were talking

690
00:34:24.480 --> 00:34:26.880
<v Speaker 14>about the Padres success that we've had, and you know,

691
00:34:26.920 --> 00:34:29.039
<v Speaker 14>the second half turnaround and we've had, We're at one point,

692
00:34:29.079 --> 00:34:31.559
<v Speaker 14>we're at fifty to fifty and fifty and fifty just

693
00:34:31.559 --> 00:34:33.519
<v Speaker 14>coming out of the All Star break and the run

694
00:34:33.559 --> 00:34:35.360
<v Speaker 14>we've been on where we've gone I think something like

695
00:34:35.400 --> 00:34:39.440
<v Speaker 14>forty two and seventeen since that point to put ourselves

696
00:34:39.440 --> 00:34:42.199
<v Speaker 14>in a position to play postseason baseball, which is extremely

697
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:44.880
<v Speaker 14>exciting for the city of San Diego and for the

698
00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:47.800
<v Speaker 14>entire Padres organization. But then to think about man forty

699
00:34:47.840 --> 00:34:50.119
<v Speaker 14>two and seventeen is historic. It's the best record in

700
00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:52.880
<v Speaker 14>baseball that twenty thirteen Dodger team went on a run

701
00:34:52.880 --> 00:34:53.800
<v Speaker 14>of fifty games where we.

702
00:34:53.760 --> 00:34:55.639
<v Speaker 3>Went forty two and eight, and.

703
00:34:55.679 --> 00:34:57.559
<v Speaker 14>Just like to see what this team has done and

704
00:34:57.599 --> 00:35:00.239
<v Speaker 14>see how that's that's kind of seeped over. It is

705
00:35:00.280 --> 00:35:05.119
<v Speaker 14>really special and really a great you know memory from

706
00:35:05.159 --> 00:35:08.000
<v Speaker 14>that team. So many great friendships still remain to this day,

707
00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:10.960
<v Speaker 14>you know, Jerry Harrison Junior and Mark Ellis and Skip

708
00:35:11.000 --> 00:35:15.239
<v Speaker 14>Schumacher and Nick Punto, Michael Young, Andre Ethier, you know,

709
00:35:15.280 --> 00:35:18.039
<v Speaker 14>the list goes on and on of people who made

710
00:35:18.039 --> 00:35:22.280
<v Speaker 14>that easily the most the most enjoyable season and of

711
00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:23.320
<v Speaker 14>my professional career.

712
00:35:23.519 --> 00:35:26.760
<v Speaker 12>Padres and Dodgers may not be done after tonight. They

713
00:35:26.800 --> 00:35:29.599
<v Speaker 12>are on a collision course for another matchup in the

714
00:35:29.719 --> 00:35:32.039
<v Speaker 12>n L d S. Great to have a j ellis

715

<v Speaker 12>join us. Great to have a j elis back at

716
00:35:34.119 --> 00:35:37.360
<v Speaker 12>Dodgers Stadium. There is life outside of working from home.

717
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:37.639
<v Speaker 3>Aj.

718
00:35:37.800 --> 00:35:39.679
<v Speaker 12>You just got a taste of it.

719
00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:42.039
<v Speaker 14>It is it is, Uh, this is crazy. This has

00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:49.880
<v Speaker 14>hour or two hours a day like these long hours.

723
00:35:49.920 --> 00:35:51.679
<v Speaker 14>I don't know how you do it, Dave, but uh,

724
00:35:51.840 --> 00:35:54.719
<v Speaker 14>you know, keep up the good work and then you know, someday, uh,

725
00:35:55.119 --> 00:35:58.119
<v Speaker 14>you know, soon maybe somebody will be your special assistant

752
00:37:11.360 --> 00:37:13.679

753
00:37:13.719 --> 00:37:16.199
<v Speaker 2>three ninety five Erara thirty one year old right hander

754
00:37:16.400 --> 00:37:18.519
<v Speaker 2>made his major league debut in twenty sixteen. Now in

755
00:37:18.519 --> 00:37:21.400
<v Speaker 2>his fourth season with the Padres, making his nineteen start

756
00:37:21.440 --> 00:37:21.800
<v Speaker 2>this year.

757
00:37:21.800 --> 00:37:23.480
<v Speaker 3>He's been on the il a couple times with l

758
00:37:23.519 --> 00:37:24.199
<v Speaker 3>O inflammation.

759
00:37:24.559 --> 00:37:27.159
<v Speaker 2>Last time out, six shot, shoutout innings, four hits, nine

760

763
00:37:37.599 --> 00:37:39.880
<v Speaker 2>He's still searching for his first winns a starter. He's

00:37:48.039 --> 00:37:50.079
<v Speaker 2>still try to figure it out, but no better time

768

<v Speaker 2>than the present.

769
00:37:50.840 --> 00:37:52.079

792
00:39:04.320 --> 00:39:06.199
<v Speaker 5>Right, Tim, promise not to yeah pitt you too much

793
00:39:06.199 --> 00:39:09.480
<v Speaker 5>this time. Rick Monday, My question for you is simple.

794
00:39:10.119 --> 00:39:14.320
<v Speaker 5>Walker Buehler against Joe Muskrove. A big game for Walker,

795
00:39:14.400 --> 00:39:16.079
<v Speaker 5>in a big game for the Dodgers. He's got a

796
00:39:16.159 --> 00:39:18.320
<v Speaker 5>chance to pitch them to a Nation League West crown.

797
00:39:18.599 --> 00:39:20.639
<v Speaker 5>We have seen him time and again in his career

798
00:39:20.719 --> 00:39:21.599
<v Speaker 5>rise to the occasion.

799
00:39:21.719 --> 00:39:24.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and I think also Steven, there's going to be

800
00:39:24.360 --> 00:39:27.000
<v Speaker 4>a lot of emotion that Walker Buehler has gone through

801
00:39:27.320 --> 00:39:30.400
<v Speaker 4>and the uncertainty of the fact is it one, when

802
00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:33.039
<v Speaker 4>is he going to come back and pitch? B how

803
00:39:33.119 --> 00:39:35.559
<v Speaker 4>is he going to pitch? And he's in there tonight,

804
00:39:35.679 --> 00:39:37.760
<v Speaker 4>So this will be a game number one hundred and

805
00:39:37.760 --> 00:39:40.039
<v Speaker 4>thirty one in his career start number one hundred and

806
00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:42.519
<v Speaker 4>twenty two. Is a lot on the line, not only

807
00:39:42.559 --> 00:39:45.760
<v Speaker 4>for Walker but for the Dodgers tonight against the pres and.

808
00:39:45.960 --> 00:39:49.039
<v Speaker 5>Can he give the Dodgers some length? The bullpen has

809
00:39:49.119 --> 00:39:53.719
<v Speaker 5>pitched fifteen of the last twenty seven innings. On behalf

810
00:39:53.760 --> 00:39:56.079
<v Speaker 5>of the Dodgers staff. It'll be Joe Musgrove on the

811
00:39:56.079 --> 00:39:58.679
<v Speaker 5>other side, a right handed for San Diego, with whom

812
00:39:58.719 --> 00:40:03.320
<v Speaker 5>the Dodgers are very familiar with. Musgrove against Walker Bueller,

813
