Speaker 1: And now your host for Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck,
Speaker 1: Tam kays.
Speaker 2: Hi, everybody, and welcome in to Morongo Casino Dodgers on
Speaker 2: Deck live for Marongo Casino Resort and Spa in Cavzon.
Speaker 2: As your Los Angeles Dodgers ninety three and sixty four
Speaker 2: on the season, first place, top of the NL West.
Speaker 2: The fight for the division continues tonight as the Dodgers
Speaker 2: play host to the San Diego Padres, who won the
Speaker 2: series opener last night in dramatic fashion, Tonight's a great
Speaker 2: pitching matchup, Jack Flaherty Dylan sees on the man first
Speaker 2: pitch coming up at seven to ten. Between then and now,
Speaker 2: we got a lot to get to here. I'm Marongo
Speaker 2: Casino Dodgers on Deck. You're gonna hear from the Dodger
Speaker 2: manager Dave Roberts will dive deeper into this great pitching
Speaker 2: matchup tonight David vaz Say will go one on one
Speaker 2: with keyk Hernandez. We got your Dodgers magical moment coming
Speaker 2: up in thirty minutes. Shortly we'll visit with Kirsten Watson
Speaker 2: from Sports and at LA and in just a few
Speaker 2: minutes we'll head out to the Gallpin Motors Broadcast booth
Speaker 2: and here from Rick Monday and Steven Nelson. Well last
Speaker 2: night a dramatic ending at the stadium, not before the
Speaker 2: Dodgers got themselves in a hole, though they tried to
Speaker 2: get out of. Landon Knack would go four innings, give
Speaker 2: up four runs on five hits. The Dodgers spotted him
Speaker 2: a one nothing lead, show Aotani scoring on an air
Speaker 2: from Exander Boguards, and the Dodgers had a one nothing
Speaker 2: lead after one. However, in this second things fell apart
Speaker 2: from Landon Nack. He gave up a two run home
Speaker 2: run to Jake Croninworth. Then in the fourth two more
Speaker 2: runs came across for the Padres and the Dodgers were
Speaker 2: down four to one. Michael King would go five innings,
Speaker 2: scattered just three hits while giving up that one run
Speaker 2: it was unearned in the first inning. The bullpen then
Speaker 2: took over for San Diego the rest of the way,
Speaker 2: as did the Dodgers bullpen, which was great for the
Speaker 2: next four innings. In the ninth, the Dodgers down four
Speaker 2: to one, runners on for Key k a Hernandez.
Speaker 3: Two singles to start the ninth a one to two
Speaker 3: pitch to Keiy k Hernandez, broken.
Speaker 4: Back third a center field. It drops down for a hit.
Speaker 4: Smith comes home. It's not four to two.
Speaker 3: Dodgers Stadium has life.
Speaker 2: Key k Hernandez, top tier play the game sponsor by
Speaker 2: Arco quality, top tier gas for less key k a
Speaker 2: Hernandez delivered with the RBI single.
Speaker 4: The Dodgers down four.
Speaker 2: To two, they'd get the bases loaded with nobody out.
Speaker 2: Miguel Rojas up to bat, show a Otani on deck,
Speaker 2: ready to do something big for the Dodgers, and that
Speaker 2: brings us to the breath of fresh air moment.
Speaker 5: Of the game.
Speaker 3: Corner infield, ready to crash for the Padres, Machata at third,
Speaker 3: Solano at first the O one, Rojas is swinging ground
Speaker 3: ball to third. Machado steps on the back, goes the second.
Speaker 4: For one the turn.
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, a game ending triple play. Unbelievable. A
Speaker 2: triple play started by Manny Machado. That's the breath of
Speaker 2: fresh air moment of the game. Brought to by a
Speaker 2: Tara Mechanical looking for reliable heating and air conditioning services
Speaker 2: in southern California, look no further than a Tara Mechanical,
Speaker 2: your trusted partner, Omar Brittany, the owners founders, great people.
Speaker 2: Their service is more than just a solution to breadth
Speaker 2: of fast share. From the moment you call to the
Speaker 2: completion of your project, a Tara Mechanical friendly on his
Speaker 2: service at a fair price.
Speaker 4: Nothing fair about that.
Speaker 2: As the Dodgers hit into a triple play ball game
Speaker 2: over Padres clinch a playoff spot, they get closer to
Speaker 2: the Dodgers, who still lead the division, but the Padres
Speaker 2: nipping on their heels. Tonight, game two of this three
Speaker 2: game series. Jack Flaherty on the mount, first pitch at
Speaker 2: seven ten and with more we head out to the
Speaker 2: Gallpin Mooters broadcast booth as we welcome in Stephen Nelson
Speaker 2: and Rick Monday.
Speaker 3: Guys, All right, tim gate to be with you ahead
Speaker 3: of another big game at Dodger Stadium, A massive game.
Speaker 4: Dare we say the biggest game?
Speaker 3: Well, these next two nights, you're gonna say the same thing, moll,
Speaker 3: because it's all the line for the Dodgers this leave.
Speaker 3: The division is down to two games, two games left
Speaker 3: against the Padres. If they win both, they clinch the
Speaker 3: National League West. We got to start with last night,
Speaker 3: I think we have heard the explanations from Dave Roberts
Speaker 3: talking about how we thought the wheel play was going
Speaker 3: to be on for the Padres after Mickey Roll pulled
Speaker 3: back the first bun attempt, which you should have put
Speaker 3: it down anyway, it was a perfect first pitch to
Speaker 3: do it. You catch them off guard. Alas that didn't happen.
Speaker 3: They didn't keep the bun on. The explanation of the
Speaker 3: wheel play, did that make sense to you? Did it
Speaker 3: sit well with you? How would you have liked to
Speaker 3: have seen things play out now that you have hindsight.
Speaker 6: And for those the wonder on the wheel play, that's
Speaker 6: basically where you're putting the infielders in position to baby
Speaker 6: upset the apple card and have the bunt play into
Speaker 6: your hands the defense, and you do the wheel play,
Speaker 6: you're kind of gambling that you're going to have the
Speaker 6: bunt laid down. Well, that was not the case. The
Speaker 6: infield stayed back and the Dodgers have had difficulty if
Speaker 6: we look at it steven the last three games, I mean,
Speaker 6: including last night, the last three games, Dodgers have hit
Speaker 6: into seven double plays and now went triple play. But
Speaker 6: when you're trying to surprise things. Here's the other scenario.
Speaker 6: Let's say, for example, the bunt gets put down right
Speaker 6: in the runners advance and Rojas is out at first
Speaker 6: because they make.
Speaker 3: The play, So second and third one out runner.
Speaker 6: First and second, you want to butt the ball to
Speaker 6: third base. Is it more difficult for right handed batter
Speaker 6: to pull the bunt to get the third? Probably you
Speaker 6: don't want the buntet the first because the first baseman's
Speaker 6: crashing in on it. But let's say that the sacrifice
Speaker 6: BUTNT went okay, Now you're going to walk o tany load.
Speaker 6: The bases bases are don't want to have a home plate,
Speaker 6: and Mookie bets either.
Speaker 3: And we've seen that movie before, haven't we walk?
Speaker 6: And there's a pretty good history. And then even if
Speaker 6: he doesn't knock in at least the tying runs, then
Speaker 6: you've got Freddy Freeman that it's not a bad option
Speaker 6: either for any lineup. So that was the case, and
Speaker 6: nobody is expecting the triple played. But we're looking at
Speaker 6: one play. But the Dodgers did not play well for
Speaker 6: eight innings. They ran themselves out of the first inning
Speaker 6: by base running. We saw some plays that were not
Speaker 6: made defensively, we saw opportunities that were missed. And here's
Speaker 6: the other underlying part. Last night was the eighth time
Speaker 6: in the last thirteen games that a starting pitcher for
Speaker 6: the Dodgers has gone four innings or less. That has
Speaker 6: put a tremendous strain on the bullpen. In fact, you
Speaker 6: start to look at the last fourteen games, excluding a
Speaker 6: game that Brian Brasier worked one inning as an open
Speaker 6: and that was last Friday, is a bullpen game. Starting
Speaker 6: pitching has worked fifty two and two thirds innings with
Speaker 6: a six to seventy one earned ren average. The bullpen
Speaker 6: talk about a workload. They worked sixty and two thirds innings,
Speaker 6: so they have more than well eight innings, more than
Speaker 6: what the starting pitching gives his work.
Speaker 3: There's a lot on the shoulders of Jack Flardy Night,
Speaker 3: the starter for Game two against Dylan Cson. Again, we
Speaker 3: talked about this last night, Tim is to get it
Speaker 3: back to you. To be fair, Mickey Rojas has had
Speaker 3: his greatest offensive season. He has been one of the
Speaker 3: more important pieces on this team throughout the year. He
Speaker 3: is perhaps the best contact hitter on the team outside
Speaker 3: of Mookie Betts. But in that situation, you want to
Speaker 3: go down with your big boys, and that didn't happen
Speaker 3: for the Dodgers last night. Adding to the disappointment of
Speaker 3: losing game one. Game two is still in front of
Speaker 3: him and it's coming up shortly.
Speaker 2: All right, thank you, Nelly, as we call you down
Speaker 2: first pitch, Dodger fans, get your game day meal on.
Speaker 4: It's Shaky's Pizza Parlor.

Speaker 4: It is a fair.
Speaker 3: Ball and it hops over the wall on one hop,
Speaker 3: a leadoff ground rule double for show Hey O'tani on
Speaker 3: the very first pitch of the game.
Speaker 2: Show Hey Otani with a double in the first inning.
Speaker 4: Has only hitting the game.
Speaker 2: He'd get on base twice, so as he walked later on,
Speaker 2: patting three to.
Speaker 4: Oh one on this season.
Speaker 2: That double, by the way, the most extra base hits
Speaker 2: in a season for a Dodger player, breaking the franchise
Speaker 2: record set by Babe Herman back in nineteen thirty. Otani

Speaker 1: This is Kirston's Corner with Kirston Watson.
Speaker 2: Hey, Kirston now joins us from Dodgers Stadium before Game
Speaker 2: two of this three game series against the Padres and
Speaker 2: Kirston last night the talk of baseball, the talk of sports.
Speaker 4: The triple play that did in the Dodgers.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and look, as much as it was a frustrating
Speaker 7: ending for the Dodgers, it's a terrible way to lose
Speaker 7: a game a triple play. I mean, you had a
Speaker 7: perfect situation. They had just scored to run the game
Speaker 7: with than four to two. There were two guys on
Speaker 7: and there were no outs, and with Miguel Rojas on, Okay,
Speaker 7: whatever happened with him, there was still gonna be show. Hey,
Speaker 7: Tani to get in that bet say they walk show. Hey,
Speaker 7: you had Mookie Betts, Freddy Freeman. That's literally ideal situation.
Speaker 7: You often talk about the top of the owner turning
Speaker 7: things over. They literally did just that. And obviously we
Speaker 7: know how it ended. Manny Machado turned a triple play.
Speaker 7: And I was talking to Dino Eble just about it today.
Speaker 7: He obviously works with our defenders every single day on
Speaker 7: different groundball drills, and I asked him just to kind
Speaker 7: of break it down for me because I was trying
Speaker 7: to figure out, like, is that just is that a
Speaker 7: one of a kind play that only he can do,
Speaker 7: Manny Machado can do. And he said, honestly, twenty nine
Speaker 7: of thirty third basemen in this league, they're not turning
Speaker 7: that triple play. They're thinking.
Speaker 4: They're thinking the double.
Speaker 7: Play either tag third, throw over to first, maybe they
Speaker 7: do a five four three, but they're not thinking triple play.
Speaker 7: And where it took, he was saying, he's playing that
Speaker 7: how much information Manny took into consideration in that moment?
Speaker 7: He recognizes who is hitting Miguel Rojas and they recognize
Speaker 7: us who's on deck with show hey o Tani recognizing
Speaker 7: the positioning in which he is, that he's so close
Speaker 7: to first that he can tag it and then look
Speaker 7: to beat the speed of the second base and to
Speaker 7: kind of turn that play. For him to be able
Speaker 7: to do that, it was you do kind of have
Speaker 7: to take a step back and be the fan of
Speaker 7: just it was remarkable to see him do such as that.
Speaker 7: Now for them to do it, and then for them
Speaker 7: to clinch a postseason but we don't love that. But
Speaker 7: to actually execute the play was pretty spectacular.
Speaker 4: No doubt about it.
Speaker 2: Real quick, what's the mindset of this team that haven't
Speaker 2: been around in the last couple hours to get ready
Speaker 2: for Game two tonight.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's they're composed and I think they're ready. Ultimately,
Speaker 7: when it comes to this group, they understand what's at
Speaker 7: stake right now. They understand that if the Padres come
Speaker 7: in here and they sweep this team and they win
Speaker 7: all three, that's not where they want to be. That
Speaker 7: means that's more pressure on the final series for both
Speaker 7: teams for of the regular season. So they know they
Speaker 7: want to win today without siding the tone. I spoke
Speaker 7: with Jack Clarity yesterday and he said that these are
Speaker 7: the games that he lives for to be a part
Speaker 7: of this situation right now, to be a part of
Speaker 7: this team. He wants to do everything in his power
Speaker 7: to help this team win, and he believes that he's
Speaker 7: made the adjustments from his last outing going into this
Speaker 7: one today. So hopefully he can set the tone and
Speaker 7: we can see the offense put up some big numbers.
Speaker 7: They're gonna be a tough one against ellen C's but
Speaker 7: hopefully they can find a way to get to him.
Speaker 2: Hope So, Kirson, we will check in with you after
Speaker 2: the game. Dodgers need to win. They need something big

Speaker 4: Maybe in the n l DS. We'll see. All right,
Speaker 4: let's head back out the Dodgers. Dat even check out
Speaker 4: with the Dodger skipper.
Speaker 5: Any questions for Dave Dave?
Speaker 8: Can you just describe Dave?
Speaker 5: Can you talk about the pressure in.
Speaker 9: The dugouts with Dave Roberts when you play one hundred
Speaker 9: and sixty two games. There's a lot of heartbreaking games.
Speaker 9: And the thing about baseball players, you got to come
Speaker 9: back and do it again the next day, and so
Speaker 9: linger effects, I don't think so. I think that you know,
Speaker 9: it's up to Jack to set the tone and our
Speaker 9: guys to be ready to win a ball game tonight.
Speaker 9: I think Atlanta was a miss must win game given
Speaker 9: where we were at, how things are going after losing
Speaker 9: the first two and I mean, yeah, and here we
Speaker 9: are again. So I think that it's you look at
Speaker 9: the kind of the scope of that point in time,
Speaker 9: and we've had a lot of must win games and
Speaker 9: I just expect to go out there and play goodball game.
Speaker 4: Talk about like characters.
Speaker 3: The team, since it is like a kind of situation,
Speaker 3: come on last night, they gets tested a little bit.
Speaker 9: It is it is. And again, you know, athletes, baseball players,
Speaker 9: you get tested with your character quite often. And I've
Speaker 9: seen our guys bounce back. They're resilient, they're tough. No
Speaker 9: one's going to feel sorry for you. You got to go
Speaker 9: out there and be a pro and win a baseball game.
Speaker 9: That's just what it boils down to.
Speaker 8: It was around for us because the season last night, or.
Speaker 9: I don't think that we I honestly, I don't think so.
Speaker 9: And it's not I just don't think this is a raw,
Speaker 9: raw situation. You got to be a pro. We lost
Speaker 9: a tough ballgame, they beat us, and you've got to reset.
Speaker 9: That's just I mean, I don't know. If we had
Speaker 9: to have a raw, raw guy after last night, then
Speaker 9: we've got the wrong guys. I just that's what I believe.
Speaker 2: All Right, there's Dave Roberts down the dugout talking about
Speaker 2: the tough loss last night to the Padres and the
Speaker 2: need to bounce back tonight in the second game of

Speaker 2: Dodgers and Padres first place on the line, I'm Tim

Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on.
Speaker 5: Deck on your home for the Blue All Season Law Law.
Speaker 2: It's the Dodgers and Padres on this Wednesday Nights. Dodgers
Speaker 2: need a win after dropping the series opener last night,
Speaker 2: Jack Flerti and sees the pitching match up the umpiring
Speaker 2: crew for tonight's game, brought to you by Fred Loyer Insurance,
Speaker 2: celebrating fifty years of providing reliable and affordable car insurance
Speaker 2: for you and your family.
Speaker 1: Joining Tim cats On Dodgers on Deck, I accept everybody
Speaker 1: for who they are. This is Dodger inside there, David Bassi,
Speaker 1: all right, DV.
Speaker 4: What's the vibe out there tonight?
Speaker 2: After a tough loss last night in the fashion that
Speaker 2: they lost, is this team right to bounce back of.
Speaker 4: The game two?
Speaker 10: I would imagine, so, Tim, the Dodgers are not just
Speaker 10: going to go home and concede anything to the Padres.
Speaker 10: I'm curious to see and I got this sense. I
Speaker 10: would say halfway through the afternoon here at Dodgers Stadium
Speaker 10: that the Dodgers may have gotten a wake up call
Speaker 10: after the way they played last night. I know there's
Speaker 10: a lot of focus on the ninth inning, and rightfully so,
Speaker 10: but really the first eight innings of that game, the
Speaker 10: Dodgers need a needed smelling salts to be able to
Speaker 10: wake up from whatever days or the way that they played.
Speaker 10: It just wasn't what the fifty thousand plus expected from
Speaker 10: a team that is trying to hold off the hottest
Speaker 10: team in Major League Baseball right now with the best
Speaker 10: record since the All Star breaks. So I kind of
Speaker 10: believe that the Dodgers are not just going to put
Speaker 10: their tail between their legs. They're going to come out
Speaker 10: tonight and really show the Padres they have a lot
Speaker 10: to handle.
Speaker 2: Dave Gavin Lucks no secret. He came out of the
Speaker 2: All Star Break red hot. He has since cooled down
Speaker 2: and he has really struggled.
Speaker 10: He really has tim and he's in there tonight because
Speaker 10: he has good numbers against Dylan Cees in his career,
Speaker 10: but coming into the game tonight, he's hitting a buck
Speaker 10: ninety since August twenty first, it just seems like he
Speaker 10: is emotionally and physically spent with having to come back
Speaker 10: from a right knee injury. He really saved his season
Speaker 10: with the way he played coming out of the All
Speaker 10: Star break, but it feels like maybe he's running out
Speaker 10: of gas. And I would not put it past the
Speaker 10: Dodgers to consider playing Key k a Hernandez every day
Speaker 10: at second base going into the postseason. But if you
Speaker 10: look at the small sample size of Gavin Lux against
Speaker 10: Dylan Cees, he's two for three with a double. Keyk
Speaker 10: Hernandez five for twelve against ce So there's an argument
Speaker 10: to be made for both those guys. But the Dodgers
Speaker 10: need Gavin Lux to play his role as a left
Speaker 10: handed bat on the infield, and we'll see what he
Speaker 10: gives them tonight.
Speaker 5: I know he's been.
Speaker 10: Putting in a lot of work, a lot of early
Speaker 10: batting practice, so hopefully the results start to show up.
Speaker 4: David is driven by Ford.
Speaker 2: If there's one thing we like, its choices, fine yours
Speaker 2: with the four F one fifty, the gas hybrid, all electric, tough.
Speaker 2: This smart can only be called F one fifty. Tonight,
Speaker 2: great pitching matchup. Dylan Sez goes for the Padres, Jack
Speaker 2: Felherty on the mound for the Dodgers and Dave.
Speaker 4: They really need him tonight.
Speaker 10: They really do, and they really need his fastball velocity
Speaker 10: to go back where it was the majority of this season.
Speaker 10: In his last start, Flaherty's average fastball velocity was clocked
Speaker 10: at eighty nine miles an hour. That's significant for a
Speaker 10: guy that was averaging ninety four miles an hour on
Speaker 10: his fastball. So that's something to look for tonight. Where
Speaker 10: is the fastball and is his body in sync like
Speaker 10: it wasn't in Miami.
Speaker 2: Dave will Smith batten six again tonight. Is got to
Speaker 2: get the feeling will Smith maybe turn things around.
Speaker 5: Now I don't know about that.
Speaker 10: I'm still seeing a miss a lot of fastballs, fouling
Speaker 10: off fastballs that he should be hitting. They need will Smith,
Speaker 10: they need Freddie Freeman. Will Smith was awarded at the
Speaker 10: beginning of the season a long term extension for what
Speaker 10: he can do offensively at that position. We just haven't
Speaker 10: seen it all season long, and he has denied that
Speaker 10: he has injured, but you would have to imagine he's
Speaker 10: battling something. You don't go from being an All Star
Speaker 10: catcher to a buck ninety hitter since June. So hopefully
Speaker 10: things start to turn around for him. We only got
Speaker 10: five more games to go in this season, so now
Speaker 10: would be a good time for Will Smith to figure
Speaker 10: it out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe wishful thinking on my part. David appreciate it.

Speaker 2: It's the Dodgers and the Padres on this Wednesday night.
Speaker 2: Jack Flaherty Dylan cees the pitching matchup. First pitch coming

Speaker 2: from Kei k Hernettez.
Speaker 1: But first and now joined by David Masseying. Here's la
Speaker 1: Dodgers broadcaster and World Series champion Dodger Rick Monday.
Speaker 10: Rick again, a beautiful Wednesday at Dodgers Stadium, and you
Speaker 10: are the most wanted man here in a good way
Speaker 10: where everybody wants a piece of the great Rick Monday?
Speaker 4: Is that right?
Speaker 6: That's what you're going with?
Speaker 5: Did you follow?
Speaker 6: Can you hit or what?
Speaker 9: No?
Speaker 5: I feel that way.
Speaker 10: You know you're a tough guy to nail down on
Speaker 10: a daily basis. Rick, You are more popular than what
Speaker 10: you let on.
Speaker 6: Is that right?
Speaker 5: I think so?
Speaker 6: Yeah? Evidently I didn't realize the bars had opened that
Speaker 6: soon that early. Today.
Speaker 5: It's happy hover somewhere, Rick.
Speaker 6: You know every time, how many times have we said this?
Speaker 6: When you come to the ballpark, you never know what
Speaker 6: you might see, and sometimes you see things you've never
Speaker 6: seen before. I've never seen a ballgame end with a
Speaker 6: triple play. I've seen triple plays, I've played in those,
Speaker 6: I've seen an unassisted triple play. I've never seen a
Speaker 6: game end on a triple play, and hopefully don't see
Speaker 6: it again, at least not with the home team.
Speaker 10: Would you like to rehash that at bad in the
Speaker 10: ninth inning last night. As far as not bunting to
Speaker 10: get a billion dollars worth of hitters to the plate.
Speaker 6: Well, that's a good question. It's a good scenario. And
Speaker 6: you know, if we go back and not to place
Speaker 6: it on Miguel Rojas's shoulders, you know, he'd buntet at
Speaker 6: the first pitch, took the bat back. It was a
Speaker 6: called strike. I thought that was the best opportunity right there.
Speaker 6: So he took that pit for a strike and he's
Speaker 6: showing butt. Then he swings away. Okay, fine, let's say
Speaker 6: the butt gets down. Okay, let's go from a positive standpoint,
Speaker 6: they would have walked show. Hey, Otani, it's not a
Speaker 6: second choice either. Had Mookie Benz come up and then
Speaker 6: followed by Freddy Freeman on top of that, with one out,
Speaker 6: you've already got one run that has come in. So yeah,
Speaker 6: there's a real good chance you've got the tying runs
Speaker 6: and that are on base and the winning runs are
Speaker 6: on bass. But that was not the case. I think
Speaker 6: more importantly though, too, David, I think we have to
Speaker 6: look before the ninth inning, there were missed opportunities, and
Speaker 6: quite frankly, I said during the broadcast, there were two
Speaker 6: teams that showed up last night, only one really played well.
Speaker 6: And the Dodgers have not really played too well for
Speaker 6: a number of games. And there's an issue with the
Speaker 6: starting rotation, and the bullpen has been overworked, and there's
Speaker 6: no question about that. Numbers we'll get into during the
Speaker 6: broadcast itself, but let's not overlook the fact that the
Speaker 6: Dodgers have not helped themselves from an offensive standpoint. That
Speaker 6: ran themselves out of the inning last night. There were
Speaker 6: some strange plays in the outfield where Mookie Benzon in
Speaker 6: one volt did not get a jump at all, didn't
Speaker 6: move until the ball hit the ground. They ran themselves
Speaker 6: out of the inning in the first inning. Also, if
Speaker 6: you look at the last three games, how about these numbers.
Speaker 6: In the last three games, the Dodgers have hit into
Speaker 6: seven double plays and now one triple play. So it's
Speaker 6: missed opportunities. And one team played with a lot of
Speaker 6: electricity last night, and it was not the guys wearing
Speaker 6: Dodger blue.
Speaker 10: I feel like the Dodgers' strength and weakness at times
Speaker 10: is how they play even keel throughout the entire season.
Speaker 10: At some point you've got a rise to the level
Speaker 10: of emotion that it's going to take to win a
Speaker 10: game like last night or tonight.
Speaker 6: I'm glad you brought that up. Let's go to a
Speaker 6: comment I said this yesterday. Let's go to comment Thursday
Speaker 6: after the game in Miami, where Dave Roberts asked about
Speaker 6: his ball club and coming into the series against the
Speaker 6: and Andres and then over the weekend they'll be in
Speaker 6: Denver trying to close out the Western Division. Dave Roberts
Speaker 6: said he wants his ball club to stay hungry, have
Speaker 6: a sense of urgency. Yesterday before the ballgame, he said
Speaker 6: he wanted his ball club to have and we're quoting vigor,
Speaker 6: have fight, have intensity, and find out.
Speaker 4: Who wants it more.
Speaker 6: Now this is the manager talking. We did not see
Speaker 6: any of those really particular feelings in the game last
Speaker 6: night overall. And I realized when you're not scoring runs
Speaker 6: and you're not hitting I've said this over and over,
Speaker 6: it looks very lethargic. That's just the nature of the game.
Speaker 6: That's the way that appears to be. But the Dodgers
Speaker 6: I do like the fact that today Dave Roberts said,
Speaker 6: Dylan sees who is going to start for the sandygop Andres.
Speaker 6: Here's the quote Dylan sees will know he was in
Speaker 6: a fight tonight.
Speaker 5: I hope that turns out to be true. Rick.
Speaker 10: Action speak louder than words. So we'll see what happens.
Speaker 6: Ball game to win tonight, ball game to win tomorrow night.
Speaker 10: Be where your feet are, as the great Richell would say,

Speaker 12: need people to step up to the occasion. And you know,
Speaker 12: I've been able to have a good last few games,
Speaker 12: and you know, obviously feels way better when.
Speaker 8: You have a good game and we win than when
Speaker 8: you have a good game when we don't win.
Speaker 12: So, you know, just trying to do my part, obviously
Speaker 12: knowing my role and all that, so just being ready
Speaker 12: for whenever my name gets called upon.
Speaker 8: If it gets called upon.
Speaker 12: If not, then you know, bring whatever I can bring
Speaker 12: to the team to to help the team win, even
Speaker 12: when I'm not in the on the field.
Speaker 5: Key k.
Speaker 10: The mantra of former Dodger teams that you were part.
Speaker 5: Of was to be where your feed are.
Speaker 10: Do you feel like this team needs to recalibrate to
Speaker 10: be where your feed are as far as not worried
Speaker 10: about the way things ended last night or what this
Speaker 10: transpired in the future or in the past.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, I don't.
Speaker 12: I don't, uh, I don't necessarily think that people are
Speaker 12: you know, thinking about yesterday, last.
Speaker 8: Night, today, But uh yeah, you know, we.
Speaker 12: Need to we need to realize the important of these games,
Speaker 12: and uh we.
Speaker 8: Need to lock it in. We we need to. We
Speaker 8: can't give extra house on defense.
Speaker 12: We can't give extra ninety feet, we can't run into
Speaker 12: outs on the basis because, uh, every run is gonna
Speaker 12: be crucial from here on out, especially you know as
Speaker 12: we get closer to the playoffs, and in the playoffs,
Speaker 12: every run.
Speaker 8: Is is absolutely critical.
Speaker 12: So uh, you know we can uh we can uh
Speaker 12: let the up. We can't give them extra outs, and
Speaker 12: we can't run into house on the bases. And you know,
Speaker 12: we just got to play better fundamental baseball. And uh
Speaker 12: you know, today's a good this is a new day,
Speaker 12: and we got Jack on the mountain and we're feeling
Speaker 12: pretty good about that.
Speaker 10: Key k Hernandez is our guest. Kyk, you were playing
Speaker 10: every day at third base for the better part.
Speaker 5: Of two months.
Speaker 10: You, like you said, you embraced your role, gone back
Speaker 10: to the bench and have been ready in the biggest moments.
Speaker 10: How has the prepper changed for you? Maybe even from
Speaker 10: three years ago.
Speaker 8: I mean a lot back then.
Speaker 12: I had to do was just grab my leg, grab
Speaker 12: my arm, and I was ready to go.
Speaker 8: And uh, you know, as you get.
Speaker 12: A little older, it takes a little more preparation to
Speaker 12: to get ready to play, and especially to come off
Speaker 12: the bench where you know, pinchonting is the hardest thing
Speaker 12: to do in all sports, and uh, you know, when
Speaker 12: you got to come in and face the guy throwing
Speaker 12: really hard, and not not just that, but you also
Speaker 12: got to be ready to you know, once the ball
Speaker 12: gets put on play, put in play, you gotta be
Speaker 12: able to run one hundred percent, and so you got
Speaker 12: to be fully loose and that's kind of hard to
Speaker 12: do coming off the bench and things like that, but uh,
Speaker 12: you know, I've done it for a long time. The
Speaker 12: process is different than back in the day, but uh
Speaker 12: but uh, you know, the the goal is the same
Speaker 12: and and the ejector is the same. So you know,
Speaker 12: like you said, just making sure that I'm ready whatever situation,
Speaker 12: whatever position, whatever it is that I need to do
Speaker 12: to to help the team win.
Speaker 8: That's what I'm here for.
Speaker 10: There used to be a PR official with the Dodgers
Speaker 10: with Kik the first time around, named Dace Suke Segura
Speaker 10: and his family owns a sushi restaurant here in Los Angeles,
Speaker 10: and I guess they're trying to bring the good luck
Speaker 10: sushi to the Dodgers because you said they're in the clubhouse.
Speaker 8: Yeah, they're here today.
Speaker 12: They're usually here on Fridays, but uh, of course we
Speaker 12: don't have any more Friday.
Speaker 8: Left than the regular season.
Speaker 12: But uh yeah, bar Ayama one of the better, if
Speaker 12: not the best Japanese restaurants I've had in the in
Speaker 12: l A. And uh, lucky for us where they're here
Speaker 12: cooking for us today. And uh you know their their
Speaker 12: grandparents now because I had a kid, uh kids raising kids,
Speaker 12: so uh you know, dies but dies back in his
Speaker 12: homeland in Japan, but uh you know he's missed around here.
Speaker 10: Can you give La your sushi order? If you're on
Speaker 10: a dinner date with your wife? What's Kik's go to?
Speaker 10: Or do you let the sushi chef dictate?
Speaker 8: Depends?
Speaker 12: If I go to bar Hayama, you know you trust
Speaker 12: that they're going to bring all the good stuff. But
Speaker 12: I honestly can't give you my sushi order here because
Speaker 12: it's way too long and uh wow, wife usually let
Speaker 12: me let me do the picking and uh, I usually.
Speaker 8: Order too much food to where we can't even eat
Speaker 8: that we order.
Speaker 5: So yeah, all right, so it's not just the avocado roll.
Speaker 8: No, no, no at all. That is not sushi.
Speaker 1: Bro.

Speaker 10: I tell you every time we talk, appreciates everything you
Speaker 10: stand for, everything that you do, as far as just

Speaker 10: go unnoticed. And we'll be talking next time with you
Speaker 10: celebrating in champagne.
Speaker 8: Oh thanks Dave, thanks for fluffing me up.
Speaker 6: I love that.
Speaker 10: There he goes, Key k Hernandez, don't be at the

Speaker 2: no hitter back in July for the Padres. Last time,
Speaker 2: I'm out eight in a third shutout innings, two hits,
Speaker 2: five strikeouts in a win over the Astros. This is
Speaker 2: his fourth career start against the Dodgers. In his three
Speaker 2: prior starts, He's a combined one in one with a
Speaker 2: one to seventy two ERA that's really good, a two
Speaker 2: to twenty opponents batting average with twenty four strikeouts in
Speaker 2: those three starts. His lone start this year as a Padre,

Speaker 2: six and at Padres eight to one win. Back on

Speaker 2: Pitch, we head back out to the booth. Rick Monday,
Speaker 2: Steven Nelson, guys.
Speaker 3: Thanks TC Back with Rick Monday and mode. Jack Flaherty
Speaker 3: takes the ball. This is why you traded.
Speaker 6: For him, Yeah, exactly, And he has stood told there's
Speaker 6: no infens a bunch about it, you know, seven and five,
Speaker 6: but he was with Detroity six and two since coming
Speaker 6: over to the Dodgers. In his nine starts, they need
Speaker 6: a good performance from him, and in the month of September,
Speaker 6: Flarity is three and one with an ERA just a
Speaker 6: fraction above three and quarters. So he's done a very
Speaker 6: good job on that. One thing about Flarity to look
Speaker 6: at him. The first pitch that hitters put into play
Speaker 6: this year has been a rather high batting average against
Speaker 6: been Flarity with the offspeed pitch that good fastball, and
Speaker 6: he knows exactly the importance of tonight's game. I look
Speaker 6: for a big win for Flarity.
Speaker 3: On the other side, Dylan Ceese the Dodgers tried to
Speaker 3: get in the offseason. The White Sox did not trade
Speaker 3: him to La They traded him to San Diego. In
Speaker 3: his first year as a padre, he's basically been their ace.
Speaker 3: The Dodgers salim on the thirty first of July lost
Speaker 3: that game to San Diego. Dylan Cease is a tough
Speaker 3: customer and the Dodgers will have their handful. Hopefully they
Speaker 3: get a bounce back performance from Rookie Betts and Freddy Freeman.
Speaker 3: Last night they were over at the plate. The fifteenth
Speaker 3: time this season that both Bets and Freeman went hitless
Speaker 3: at the plate. Can't happen again. Tonight, the all important
Speaker 3: Game two of this series, trying to even things up
Speaker 3: against the Padres to get back to three games ahead.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Dodgers start the night two games up on the
Speaker 2: Padres after dropping the series opener last night. A win tonight,
