Speaker 1: And now your host former Wrongo Casino Dodgers on Tech
Speaker 1: tam Case.
Speaker 2: Well, everybody, welcome in Tomo, Wrongo Casino Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 2: Hope you're well on this Wednesday night. You're Los Angeles
Speaker 2: Dodgers back at it at eighty six and fifty nine
Speaker 2: on the season, first place atop the NL West. After
Speaker 2: dropping the first two games of this series to the Cubbies,
Speaker 2: the Dodgers look to salvage things up with a win
Speaker 2: tonight on Max Monsey Bobblehead Nights, Bobby Miller, He's on
Speaker 2: the mound as the Dodgers look to write the ship.
Speaker 2: First pitch coming up from Dodger Stadium at seven ten.
Speaker 2: Between then and now, we got a lot to get
Speaker 2: to here on Dodgers on Deck, including your chance to
Speaker 2: win Sweet tickets and the Zenschi Sweet Live Challenge that's
Speaker 2: coming up. In thirty minutes, we'll hear from the manager,
Speaker 2: Dave Roberts, David Vasse. We'll check in throughout the hour.
Speaker 2: He'll go one on one with no Ma, No more
Speaker 2: Garcia par We got your Dodgers magical moment. We'll check
Speaker 2: in with Kirsten Watson from Sports and at LA in In
Speaker 2: just a few minutes, we'll head out to the Gallpin
Speaker 2: Motors broadcast booth, and here from Tim Neverett and Rick Monday. Well,
Speaker 2: last night it was the return of Yoshinobu Yamamoto, missing
Speaker 2: almost three months with a shoulder injury. He was back
Speaker 2: last night, and better than an advertised four any one run,
Speaker 2: four hits, eight punch outs, he threw fifty nine pitches,
Speaker 2: right around that sixty pitch mark that Dave Roberts said
Speaker 2: he'd get to in this initial return. Peter Crow Armstrong
Speaker 2: reached on an infield single in the second, the only
Speaker 2: run the Yamamoto would give up. The Dodgers would tie
Speaker 2: things up. In the bottom of the second Tommy edmund
Speaker 2: is solo home run to left that tied the game
Speaker 2: at one, and the fourth Dodgers took the lead thanks
Speaker 2: again to Tommy Edmund in August.
Speaker 3: First pitch, Edmund swings again dry some all left center field,
Speaker 3: carrying back, carrying back.
Speaker 4: Throw Armstrong at the wall.
Speaker 3: It's out of here, Tommy edm It's done it again.
Speaker 3: It's first two Dodger home runs coming consecutive abs against
Speaker 3: the all star lefty.
Speaker 4: It's a two one.
Speaker 2: League Tommy Edmund goes deep for this second time, his
Speaker 2: second in a Dodger uniform as the Dodgers go up
Speaker 2: two to one in the fifth inning. The guy would
Speaker 2: have a bobblehead made after him tonight, well, last night
Speaker 2: a home run has.
Speaker 3: The ball at the belt, now at the letters, the
Speaker 3: two zero pitch to Monthsie high in the air to
Speaker 3: right field.
Speaker 2: Max Monsey's watching it fly.
Speaker 4: That one is long gone.
Speaker 3: Third Dodger home run of the game in a three
Speaker 3: one league thanks to Max Monsey's thirteenth of the season.
Speaker 2: Max Mounsey goes deep a solo home run. That's the
Speaker 2: top tier play of the game sponsored by Arco Quality,
Speaker 2: top tier gas for the last Dodgers feeling good. They
Speaker 2: had a three to one lead after five innings. They
Speaker 2: was in great outing from Yamamoto, who went the four
Speaker 2: The Dodgers' bullpen initially looked good, but then the defense
Speaker 2: fell apart in the eighth inning. Couple of airs, a
Speaker 2: couple of bad pitches, five runs on the board for
Speaker 2: the Chicago Cubs last night as they go back and
Speaker 2: win it six to three over the Dodgers as the
Speaker 2: bullpen absolutely fell apart, giving up those five runs in
Speaker 2: the eighth inning, Evan Phillips gets tagged with the loss
Speaker 2: as the Dodgers fall to eighty six and fifty nine
Speaker 2: on this season. The Dodgers still have a lead in
Speaker 2: the NL West, but it's down to just four and
Speaker 2: a half games over the Padres only five games over
Speaker 2: the Diamondbacks. Tonight, the Dodgers need to get back on track,
Speaker 2: simple as that they need to end this series in
Speaker 2: Homestead on a winning note, and they give the ball
Speaker 2: to Bobby Miller first pitch, coming up at seven ten.
Speaker 2: With more we head out to the Galvin Motors broadcast
Speaker 2: booth and say hello to Tim Neverett and Rick Monday. Guys, Tim,
Speaker 2: thank you very much.
Speaker 5: It's really nice evening here at Dodgers Stadium as we
Speaker 5: get ready for the third and final game the Dodgers
Speaker 5: and the Chicago Cubs. Dodgers trying to salvage a game
Speaker 5: in this series. They've not been swept at home at
Speaker 5: all this season and are trying to avoid that fate
Speaker 5: here tonight as they send Bobby Miller to the mind.
Speaker 5: Miller two and four and seven to seven nine. Era
Speaker 5: Jordan Wicks, who has had some injury issues this year,
Speaker 5: with an obleak. He is back on the mound and
Speaker 5: he has a two and three record with an ERA
Speaker 5: slightly over four. The Dodgers begin the day eighty six
Speaker 5: and fifty nine, four and a half games in front
Speaker 5: of both San Diego and Arizona. Arizona beat Texas fourteen
Speaker 5: to four earlier today to pick up the half game temporarily. Meantime,
Speaker 5: the Cubs still battling it out and still alive in
Speaker 5: the wild card race seventy five and seventy. They have
Speaker 5: won four of five against the Dodgers this season, and
Speaker 5: they have won eight straight on the road, and well,
Speaker 5: this Cub team has been the road warriors of the
Speaker 5: National League over the left a little while. They have
Speaker 5: averaged over ten runs a game during their eight game
Speaker 5: road winning streak.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they've been able to do it. And then not
Speaker 6: only doing that, sixteen the last twenty three have also
Speaker 6: been in that win column. And then you start to
Speaker 6: look at what they've done on the road. They're twelve
Speaker 6: and four and the sixteen games played since the first
Speaker 6: of August, so yeah, they're doing a lot of different things.
Speaker 6: And by the way, since the first of August on
Speaker 6: the road, this Cub team has hit three to three.
Speaker 6: They've not only hit the ball well, they have caught
Speaker 6: the ball exception well. Their defense has really been sparkling
Speaker 6: in this particular two game series. To this particular point,
Speaker 6: if the Dodgers, they have to shed what was really
Speaker 6: a crummy game last night and maybe the worst game
Speaker 6: they played all year, and I think going back even
Speaker 6: in spring training. They made three airs, but they also
Speaker 6: made metal mistakes and other than Yamamoto throwing a very
Speaker 6: good game last night his return from the injury list,
Speaker 6: went four very strong innings and struck out the first
Speaker 6: five batters that he faced. In fact, he struck out
Speaker 6: six of the first seven batters the facing the ball
Speaker 6: game the Dodgers, well, they'll shed that one. One good
Speaker 6: thing is that Tiascar Hernantez is back in the lineup
Speaker 6: after missing four games.
Speaker 5: He is batting forth, so the oskar back in the
Speaker 5: cleanup spot. And you're right about last night really a
Speaker 5: tale of two cities. You had Pete Crow Armstrong doing
Speaker 5: his best Spider Man imitation out in center field. He
Speaker 5: was unbelievable defensively, and the Dodgers were on the opposite
Speaker 5: end of that spectrum and having to wash that game
Speaker 5: off with strong soap.
Speaker 6: Now it wasn't just the physical areas, it was also
Speaker 6: mental areas, wrong place, wrong time, pickoff at first, not
Speaker 6: in the right position. So you know, Dave Roberts was
Speaker 6: not particularly pleased last night of the postgame interview. Understandably,
Speaker 6: he said that he was not going to have a meeting,
Speaker 6: that they would talk to a couple of different players
Speaker 6: and maybe here and there just kind of passed the
Speaker 6: word along. And I think from a player's standpoint, tim
Speaker 6: they don't have to be reminded that it was a
Speaker 6: less than stellar game and not a game that a
Speaker 6: first place team in the Western Division should be playing it.
Speaker 6: I don't think they will ever play a game like
Speaker 6: that the rest of this year.
Speaker 5: Pitching up day, Tyler glasnow expected to throw a simulated
Speaker 5: game in Atlanta on Friday, and that will hopefully push
Speaker 5: up his return a little bit. Quicker Clayton Kershaw threw
Speaker 5: in the bullpen today, came out through on the field.
Speaker 5: He was wearing spikes on his left foot. Of course,
Speaker 5: that's been an issue for him, the foot that he
Speaker 5: pushes off the Moud and Joe Kelly will be in
Speaker 5: Oklahoma City Thursday and Sunday and is expected to rejoin
Speaker 5: the Dodgers midway through the road trip when they're in
Speaker 5: Miami next week. So the Dodgers and the Cubs getting
Speaker 5: ready for the third and final game of this series.
Speaker 5: Dodgers trying to salvage one in this three game set
Speaker 5: as they start tonight with a magic number of thirteen.
Speaker 2: Tim All right, thank you guys, as we count you
Speaker 2: down to first pitch. Dodger fans, get your game day
Speaker 2: meal on A's Shaky's Pizza part or what are your

Speaker 2: to win sweet tickets. Yeah, and he's inchy Sweet Live
Speaker 2: Challenge that's coming up in about twenty minutes. But I'm
Speaker 2: next Kirsten Watson and your Otani rewind leading up to
Speaker 2: Dodgers and Cubs on Max Bunsey Bobblehead Night. First Bitch
Speaker 2: is sevent ten. Thanks for being with us. I'm sim
Speaker 2: Kates's Los Angeles Dodgers on you know.
Speaker 4: It is Lorongo Casino Dodgers on.
Speaker 1: To Dodgers on deck y'all on the official home of
Speaker 1: La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 2: It's the Dodgers and Cubs on this Wednesday Night, final
Speaker 2: game of this three game series. Max BUNSI Bobblehead Night,
Speaker 2: Bobby Miller, Jordan Wicks. A pitching matchup, first pitch, set
Speaker 2: first seventeen.
Speaker 4: This is the Otani.
Speaker 1: Ree.
Speaker 2: Why well, it was a quiet night for show hey
Speaker 2: last night. As the leadoff hitter oh for four, hitting
Speaker 2: two ninety Now on this season, showy Otani still looking
Speaker 2: for fifty to fifty on the year, forty six home
Speaker 2: runs and currently sitting on forty seven stolen bases. So
Speaker 2: Tani rewind brought to you by Eto Anzoyotcha, Japan's number
Speaker 2: one green tea in the tea that Showyo Tani loves
Speaker 2: and drinks available at local Dizo stores, Amazon and eto
Speaker 2: in dot Com. That's it O E N dot Com.
Speaker 1: This is Kirston's Corner with Kirston Watson and.
Speaker 2: Kirston now joins us from the stadium, final game of
Speaker 2: the series, final game of his homestand and it's off
Speaker 2: to Atlanta after a day off tomorrow. Kirsten, It's time
Speaker 2: for a little sts salvage this series.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it is, especially with how last night ended. I mean, look,
Speaker 7: you have a game in which Yoshobianmoto comes off the
Speaker 7: il is able to get through four innings. He was efficient,
Speaker 7: he was I mean, I think he was more than
Speaker 7: what you could have imagined for a player who hasn't
Speaker 7: pitched in a handful of months at this rate. So
Speaker 7: for the game to start that way, and then with
Speaker 7: Dave Roberts ahead of the game saying that he wanted
Speaker 7: to see his team find a way to get to
Speaker 7: Showta I Minanga, he wanted his team to field the excitement,
Speaker 7: the matchup, all of that, and things were looking like
Speaker 7: they were going to go in that way. Tommy Edmund
Speaker 7: had two home runs in the game that Max months
Speaker 7: he had a home run, so it felt like things
Speaker 7: are moving in that direction. But that eighth inning, I
Speaker 7: think is one that everyone would like to forget.
Speaker 4: The three errors.
Speaker 7: It just it felt like it was one thing after another.
Speaker 7: And even when talking to the guys after the game,
Speaker 7: I mean, guys were you could feel that they were frustrated,
Speaker 7: but also what they were saying. You could just hear
Speaker 7: that they were frustrated. So right now, it's just turning
Speaker 7: the page. I was talking to Max Monsey earlier actually,
Speaker 7: and he was just like, sometimes you have to come
Speaker 7: in and recognize, like this game it is a mental grind,
Speaker 7: and you have to be able to come in and recognize, Okay,
Speaker 7: it's zero zero, it's a new day, it's a new game,
Speaker 7: and you have to have that mindset and that approach.
Speaker 7: And so they are looking to salvage this series today,
Speaker 7: looking to win this game, and also recognizing they know
Speaker 7: what the division standings look like, they know how close
Speaker 7: things are getting, and knowing that they have to maintain
Speaker 7: that lead and maintained playing really good baseball in September.
Speaker 2: The Dodgers head off on the road after tonight. But
Speaker 2: Bobby Miller feels like we're saying in every game now recently,
Speaker 2: Kirsten the starter needs to give him some death. We
Speaker 2: got to see what they have for the postseason, and
Speaker 2: Bobby Miller again one of those question.
Speaker 7: Marks, Yeah, it really is. I mean, look at this rate.
Speaker 7: You know that there is yoshobah Yamamoto who was back
Speaker 7: and we saw his performance yesterday, Tyler Glass now is
Speaker 7: working his way back, is hopefully it's going to take
Speaker 7: part in a SIM game on Friday. And you have
Speaker 7: Jack Flaherty who's been fantastic since coming over at the deadline.
Speaker 7: So those are your three guys that are going to
Speaker 7: be the ones, it seems like to carry the load
Speaker 7: come October. But even day Roberts today said that you
Speaker 7: need a fourth starter because you can't then have a
Speaker 7: bullpen game after knowing that the bullpen's going to need
Speaker 7: to be available to help the other starters out. So
Speaker 7: you're going to need that fourth guy. Who is that
Speaker 7: going to be. Is it going to be Walker Wheeler?
Speaker 7: Is it going to be Bobby Miller? Of course, there
Speaker 7: are still some question marks around Gavin Stone about Clayton Kershaw,
Speaker 7: and then Landon Nak has now kind of coming to
Speaker 7: the conversation since he's been performing really well. But you
Speaker 7: need someone to step up. And when it comes to
Speaker 7: Bobby Miller, the thing with him has just been the
Speaker 7: lack of consistency, and so that's something that Dave Roberts
Speaker 7: wants to see from him. With Walker, who constantly are
Speaker 7: hearing about these building blocks, Well, now we need to
Speaker 7: see how can Bobby Miller use different things that are
Speaker 7: working well. It seems like the fastball is not necessarily
Speaker 7: his It is his go to pitch at the moment,
Speaker 7: but that's in which hitters have been getting to him.
Speaker 7: It's his secondary stuff that has been excellent. So how
Speaker 7: can he just whether it's sequencing or putting himself in
Speaker 7: a better position to be successful. So hopefully we can
Speaker 7: see some of that today, because you know, time is ticking.
Speaker 7: It's crazy to think. Go today September eleventh, and we're
Speaker 7: going to blink, and there's one more home stand and
Speaker 7: the second to last road trip starts tomorrow, so now
Speaker 7: is the time to get things going.
Speaker 2: Tonight is the night. Here's that we appreciate it. We'll
Speaker 2: check out with you afterwards. Dodger fans and a Hanser
Speaker 2: listening and experience by downloading the iHeartRadio app and listening
Speaker 2: in HD. It's all powered by la Care Health Plans
Speaker 2: serving to all Angelinos Lacare dot org. Still to come,
Speaker 2: we'll dive deeper into this pitching matchup. David Mass goes
Speaker 2: one on one with no more Garciaparra up next, so
Speaker 2: we'll get you an injury report, and we'll hear from
Speaker 2: the manager himself, Dave Roberts. Leading up to Dodgers and
Speaker 2: Cubs on this Wednesday night, first pitch to seven ten.
Speaker 2: I'm Tim Kats's Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Marongo Cassino Dodgers Hunters game on your home
Speaker 1: for LA Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 2: Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck continues on this Wednesday night
Speaker 2: as we lead up to first pitch from Dodger Stadium
Speaker 2: Dodgers and Cubs Marongo Casino Resort and spy a Grand Slam.
Speaker 2: Four good times. Bobby Miller, Jordan wikes the pitching matchup.
Speaker 2: First pitch, set first seven ten.
Speaker 1: This it's the LA Dodgers Injury Report present.
Speaker 2: I use the healthy official medical partner the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Speaker 2: TA Oscar and is back in the lineup. That is
Speaker 2: good news after getting hit by a pitch on Friday night.
Speaker 2: Gavin Stone on the iel with the right shoulder inflammation,
Speaker 2: Joe Kelly's out on a right minor league rehab assignment,
Speaker 2: Clayton Kershaw working his way back from turf toe, Tyler
Speaker 2: Glasna on the iel at the right elbow to tonight
Speaker 2: is Bruce dar graderol back yesterday? That is good news
Speaker 2: A day earlier, remember than expected. All right, let's head
Speaker 2: back out to Dodgers dat Eveen check out with the
Speaker 2: Dodgers Skipper. Questions for Dave Dave?
Speaker 4: Can you just describe Dave?
Speaker 2: Can you talk about the pressure.
Speaker 4: In the dugout with Dave Roberts.
Speaker 8: Just some consistency. I think that we all know the
Speaker 8: ceiling of what Bobby can do. There's a lot of
Speaker 8: stuff that he can do, and any given night he
Speaker 8: has the ability to dominate a game. I just think
Speaker 8: it's just the consistency of the performance. But each time,
Speaker 8: you know, I see him on the mountain, I feel
Speaker 8: good about it. So, like I said, I think he's
Speaker 8: primed to have a good one tonight.
Speaker 1: Pressing things, it's to get closer to that effort.
Speaker 8: So I think just understanding how to use his fastball.
Speaker 8: The facts are that it's just not a swing and mispitch,
Speaker 8: and so it doesn't matter the velocity, it doesn't matter
Speaker 8: what he thinks. I really believe the hitters tell you.
Speaker 8: So with that understanding how to use it, where to
Speaker 8: find places to go in the strike zone to go,
Speaker 8: and then how you use your secondaries behind it, and
Speaker 8: so I think he's got a plus change up and
Speaker 8: I think he's got a good curve ball that when
Speaker 8: you put those pieces together, the mix works. I think
Speaker 8: sometimes when you get bullish on something, then the hitters
Speaker 8: make you pay. So with that, if he can sequence
Speaker 8: the right way, command the fastball, he can be as
Speaker 8: good as we all expect.
Speaker 1: Him to be.
Speaker 8: It just gives you more margin. No hitters like hidding
Speaker 8: secondary pitches. You just obviously can't live and die by it.
Speaker 8: But you still got to be able to strike it.
Speaker 8: And so if you can do that and get people
Speaker 8: to honor those pitches, then it just makes everything a lot,
Speaker 8: makes life a lot easier.
Speaker 2: All Right, there's Dave Roberts down the dugout, brought to
Speaker 2: you by Service Titan. Dave Roberts is a Titan in
Speaker 2: his own right. He's got a plan before his team
Speaker 2: hits the field. You need one for your growing contracting

Speaker 2: on Dodgers on Deck, we'll check in with David Veasse.
Speaker 2: So we lead you up to the first pitch Dodgers
Speaker 2: and Cubs. I'm Tim Kasi's Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is the Wrongo Casino Dodgers on Deck on your
Speaker 1: home for the Blue All Season Low.
Speaker 2: It's the Dodgers and the Cubs. Bobby Millard Jordans the
Speaker 2: pitching matchup in this series finale on Max Munsey's Bobblehead Night.
Speaker 2: The umpiring crew for tonight's game brought to you by
Speaker 2: friend Loyal Insurance, celebrating fifty years of providing reliable and
Speaker 2: affordable car insurance for you and your family.
Speaker 4: Joining Tim kats on Dodgers on Deck. I accept everybody
Speaker 4: for who they are. This is Dodger insider David Basse.
Speaker 2: All right, DV. The reviews are in. What were they
Speaker 2: on yamamotos performance last night?
Speaker 9: Well, I could tell you Yamamoto's feelings about it today.
Speaker 9: When I spoke to him, he was certainly pleased with
Speaker 9: the way things went last night. The split fingered fastball
Speaker 9: was on point.
Speaker 2: The fastball command was what we.
Speaker 9: Had heard it would be coming out of Japan, and
Speaker 9: that was, as he said, the best fastball command he
Speaker 9: has had all season long. And he also said he
Speaker 9: had the best curveball he has had all season long,
Speaker 9: and talking to him earlier this afternoon, he said it
Speaker 9: was Clayton Kershaw that helped him get his curveball because
Speaker 9: it was not feeling great in his last bullpen session
Speaker 9: leading up to last night's game. He told me that
Speaker 9: Kershaw observed his bullpen session and once it was completed,
Speaker 9: Kershaw showed him how to tweak his grip a little
Speaker 9: bit on his curveball. And when he was coming back
Speaker 9: to the dugout after the first inning last night, he
Speaker 9: was telling his interpreter Hero, thank God for Kershaw. So
Speaker 9: Clayton Kershaw, even when he's not pitching, helping out the team.
Speaker 2: David, he had Cody Bellinger on Dodgers on deck last night.
Speaker 2: Great to have Cody back in LA. And he's a
Speaker 2: guy who's really become a thorn the Dodger side. He
Speaker 2: really has.
Speaker 8: I mean him and Michael Bush.
Speaker 9: I've had quite a series so far, but Cody has
Speaker 9: really taken it to the Dodgers. And you heard the
Speaker 9: way he sounded yesterday, Tim, It's a more mature Cody Bellinger.
Speaker 9: And I asked his manager with the Cubs, Craig Council,
Speaker 9: whether or not he has noticed a difference. But before
Speaker 9: I did that, I asked him whether or not Cody
Speaker 9: brings up the twenty eighteen NLCS when Craig was the
Speaker 9: manager of the Brewers that year and Cody was the
Speaker 9: NLCS MVP that year.
Speaker 10: I don't like to bring that up, but no, I
Speaker 10: mean Cody was. Look, I mean, he was such a
Speaker 10: dangerous player, and you know, he had a big part
Speaker 10: in me going home that year. So he has you know,
Speaker 10: he's never brought it up. Actually I've brought it up
Speaker 10: a couple of times, but he's not. He's not. He's
Speaker 10: the site that would never bring that up.
Speaker 9: Actually, Cody was saying that he knows himself better as
Speaker 9: a hitter than he did even at the beginning of
Speaker 9: last season. Do you see that from your time being
Speaker 9: around him and competing against him?
Speaker 10: I do think, yeah, I think that's a that's a
Speaker 10: good observation, and I think he's right, and I think
Speaker 10: he does know. That's one of the I think Cody's
Speaker 10: superpowers is that he's you know, look, he's been through
Speaker 10: he's been through this very unique career path and it's
Speaker 10: it's probably forced a lot of like self examination and
Speaker 10: trying and trying to understand what's going on with my swing.
Speaker 10: You know, it probably happened really easily for a little while,
Speaker 10: and then it was really hard and that required him
Speaker 10: to to, you know, really kind of dig into understanding
Speaker 10: what am I doing? And I think it's like he's
Speaker 10: come out on the other side of that with a
Speaker 10: with a great understanding what he's doing. He's got amazing
Speaker 10: instincts in the box and with what pitchers are doing.
Speaker 10: Then he and he's also always realizes that, yeah, I
Speaker 10: always have to grow and I always have to get better.
Speaker 9: All right. There's former Dodger and current Cubs manager Craig
Speaker 9: Council on the maturity of Cody Bellinger.
Speaker 2: All right, DV appreciate it, great stuff. D V is
Speaker 2: driven by forward. If there's one thing we like, it's choices,
Speaker 2: find yours. With the Ford F one fifty, the game
Speaker 2: as the hybrid, the all electric tough, this mark can

Speaker 11: we have lost some of our freedom, and certainly we
Speaker 11: have lost a way of life. The President of the
Speaker 11: United States has said it is time to go back
Speaker 11: to work. And so, despite a heavy heart, baseball gets
Speaker 11: up out of the dirt, brushes itself off, and will
Speaker 11: followollow his command, hoping in some small way to inspire
Speaker 11: the nation to do the same. All of the ballplayers
Speaker 11: in the major leagues are wearing the American play out
Speaker 11: of patriotism, yes, out of love of country, yes, but

Speaker 2: Nom Nomar Garcia para dive Deep part of this pitching matchup,
Speaker 2: but first.
Speaker 1: And now joined by David Bassaying. Here's La Dodgers broadcast
Speaker 1: and World Series Champion Dodger Rick Monday.
Speaker 11: Rick.
Speaker 9: This is the final game of this six game homestand
Speaker 9: the temperatures were extremely hot at the beginning, but livable
Speaker 9: working conditions today.
Speaker 6: You know, the temperatures are high, and for the Dodgers
Speaker 6: last night, the gloves were cold.
Speaker 9: I know you talked about not only the physical errors,
Speaker 9: but what were the men errors that you were pointing out.
Speaker 6: Dave Roberts was talking about it, and I heard you
Speaker 6: play Roberts on the postgame interview last night on Dodger Talk,
Speaker 6: and he also brought it up on the cut off
Speaker 6: in reline. Okay, from the outfield one of the instances
Speaker 6: where was Max Munsey at third base? And we're not
Speaker 6: trying to nitpick right here, but we're going to analyze
Speaker 6: what took place. He was set up five feet on
Speaker 6: the outfield side of the third base bag and you
Speaker 6: get to throw from the outfield. It was not cut off.
Speaker 6: The throw coming in from Edmund Well, it was offline,
Speaker 6: no question about it. But that's a throw that somebody
Speaker 6: needs to put a glove on it. And where was
Speaker 6: he set up? If you look at Andy Pays, he
Speaker 6: was picked off at first base going back with the
Speaker 6: left foot. You're much quicker if you go back to
Speaker 6: the right foot because you're going to be on balance.
Speaker 6: Little things like that went back standing up little things
Speaker 6: here and there. In judgment, you're going to make physical errors.
Speaker 6: That's no offens and butts about it. But that was
Speaker 6: a very poorly played Dodger ball game last night, and
Speaker 6: that's not the way the Dodgers play the game of baseball.
Speaker 6: And I'm sure they're going to come out and have
Speaker 6: redemption here tonight and do some things.
Speaker 9: It would be nice for the Dodgers to score some
Speaker 9: early runs for Bobby Miller because obviously Bobby has needed
Speaker 9: that run.
Speaker 6: Support absolutely well, he's needed to run support, but he's
Speaker 6: also got to close the toll gate to home plate,
Speaker 6: and he's allowed too many runs to come around and score.
Speaker 6: So the question is going to be he has an
Speaker 6: excellent changeup. Isn't it strange we talk about Bobby Miller
Speaker 6: and I bring up the change up instead of the
Speaker 6: fact that you look at the two previous years combined,
Speaker 6: he made over two hundred and eighty pitches or one
Speaker 6: hundred miles an hour more. Well, he's not in that
Speaker 6: area anymore, at least not at this particular time. He
Speaker 6: may reach it towards the end of the season, if
Speaker 6: he gets a couple more starts. He may be there
Speaker 6: next year as far as the velocity, but we're really
Speaker 6: looking at an outstanding change up. And I mentioned the
Speaker 6: change up because the Cubs have a couple of guys
Speaker 6: that have not handled off speed pitches very well. And
Speaker 6: I think is Swanson and Suzuki right up at the
Speaker 6: top of the order as far as the change up.
Speaker 9: Rick, speaking of the Cubs, how about the local kid
Speaker 9: last night? Peter crow Armstrong not only robbing Max Munsey
Speaker 9: of a two run home run, but he made some
Speaker 9: other spectacular catches.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and he's done it in each of the two games.
Speaker 6: I mentioned last night that I was reminded of the
Speaker 6: late Tug McGraw and his comment about a teammates center
Speaker 6: fielder Gary Maddox that the Dodgers saw plenty of in
Speaker 6: postseason play against the Phillies back in the seventies, where
Speaker 6: Tug McGraw, after a couple of good players at Maddox Vegas, says,
Speaker 6: you know, in the postgame, he says, the earth is
Speaker 6: covered by two thirds water, Gary Madnox covers the other third.
Speaker 6: And that's just about what we saw from crow Armstrong
Speaker 6: last night. Very good jumps and boy can he fly.
Speaker 6: And obviously you almost wonder if he has Belcrow in
Speaker 6: the glove because he's made some outstanding catches.
Speaker 9: Rick, as you look at the Dodger bullpen as we
Speaker 9: get closer to the end of the season, they have
Speaker 9: been able to have baseball's best record or close to
Speaker 9: it for the better part of the season. Can find
Speaker 9: a way to get a guy that they can count
Speaker 9: on for the final three outs or can they live
Speaker 9: this way going into October?
Speaker 6: I think someone's going to have to raise their hand
Speaker 6: by getting some outs on the field at the end,
Speaker 6: you know they're another man short. An then he bonded,
Speaker 6: just decided to either move a wall or something else
Speaker 6: with a hand. He has a fractured pitching hand, so
Speaker 6: he's going to be out. Joe Kelly is going to
Speaker 6: be pitching now in Oklahoma City a couple of games
Speaker 6: while this Dodger ball club is on the road, so
Speaker 6: he may rejoin us very very soon. Someone's going to
Speaker 6: have to step forward in that closer spot. But in
Speaker 6: order to have the closer spot, David, you have to
Speaker 6: have the lead at the end of the game.
Speaker 9: Hey, great point, Rick, I'm not great at math, but
Speaker 9: even I know that by the way my big proclamations,
Speaker 9: you will see a new and improved Joe Kelly when
Speaker 9: he returns.
Speaker 6: Trust me on that look forward to it and they
Speaker 6: need it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they do.
Speaker 9: At least they got Gretorol back last night. That's a
Speaker 9: big help for reinforcement, the big Bazukah. Yes, sir, Hey, Rick,
Speaker 9: thanks a lot for the time. We'll check back in
Speaker 9: with you a little bit later.
Speaker 6: Oh can't wait.
Speaker 9: Oh there he goes Rick Monday. We'll send it back
Speaker 9: to you in the studio.

Speaker 9: only John Hartongue. We are joined by sports Net LA Zone, Nomar,
Speaker 9: Garcia Para, the awards, the accolades, the two time batting champions.
Speaker 9: We could go on and on, Nomar, but we have
Speaker 9: a limited time here. But always great to see you
Speaker 9: and your purple tie.
Speaker 12: You know, I love, I appreciate all the accolades you're mentioning,
Speaker 12: But you know, I think the biggest thing that I've
Speaker 12: accomplished is found a way to be friends with you.
Speaker 2: So I think that's definitely one of my bigger achievements.
Speaker 9: No, Mar, is it a coincidence I found you tucked
Speaker 9: in the corner of a dark room before we did
Speaker 9: this interview.
Speaker 4: Were you trying to find me? Or is that just
Speaker 4: where you were hanging out one?
Speaker 12: I was also doing some work preparing before we go
Speaker 12: on our shows, So Dave, you actually do know with
Speaker 12: John Hartung and myself, we actually do work prior to
Speaker 12: us going on TV. It's not something we just kind
Speaker 12: of wing at the top of our heads, although at
Speaker 12: times it feels like that.
Speaker 9: I think experience speaks for itself when it comes to you, Nomar.
Speaker 9: But obviously you have transformed yourself into a broadcaster, not
Speaker 9: a player.
Speaker 4: And I know you take a lot of pride in
Speaker 4: that one.
Speaker 12: I didn't take it for granted when I first started
Speaker 12: in thinking that one it was going to be easy.
Speaker 2: Just because you do interviews, thinks you're.
Speaker 12: Going to be able to do the broadcast. So I
Speaker 12: was always constantly learning. Obviously I've evolved. I've learned so
Speaker 12: much over the years and continue to learn and continue
Speaker 12: trying to be better. One thing you do learn early
Speaker 12: on is you have to put the work in and
Speaker 12: you still you know, it's not where you can just
Speaker 12: show up and put the mic in front or the
Speaker 12: cameras are on and then you can just go.
Speaker 2: You really have to put the work in.
Speaker 12: And there's a lot of colleagues that I do work,
Speaker 12: that I work with and you can see how much
Speaker 12: work they put in. I mean as we're sitting you know,
Speaker 12: John hart Toongue, I mean watching him thet the hours
Speaker 12: that he prepares ahead of time, and even when the
Speaker 12: game's going on, watching him prepare to make sure that
Speaker 12: the show goes well. He makes it just look so seamless.
Speaker 12: And so there's people like him and other people that
Speaker 12: I've worked with in the industry and just really seeing
Speaker 12: their preparation and why they're so great at what they do.
Speaker 9: Yeah, John Hartongue must be one of the most unselfish
Speaker 9: teammates you have played with in the broadcasting world.
Speaker 12: Yeah, he's definitely a special one.
Speaker 4: I think people don't really know.
Speaker 12: I don't think people really know exactly how how good
Speaker 12: and how well he really he really is at what
Speaker 12: he does.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 9: Mar Garcia Para is our guest, all right, Omar This
Speaker 9: will be a tough question for you to answer because
Speaker 9: your heart is at the position of short stuf. There's
Speaker 9: a lot of debate now as we are getting down
Speaker 9: to the final seventeen games of the regular season.
Speaker 4: Who is the National League MVP.
Speaker 9: Will it be a dh that is going to be
Speaker 9: the first fifty to fifty player in baseball history? Or
Speaker 9: will it be Francisco Lindor who's playing shortstop for the
Speaker 9: surprising Mets. Where do you see this landing?
Speaker 12: Well, I mean, I know watching show he on a
Speaker 12: daily basis obviously and covering it, and you're right where
Speaker 12: I feel how I feel about shortstops. And we even
Speaker 12: heard Mochy Vets talk about how hard shortstop is.
Speaker 4: Right, you have an MVP caliber player.
Speaker 2: Talking about that.
Speaker 12: But at the same time, we've never seen I know,
Speaker 12: we haven't had a DHV and MVP, but we've also
Speaker 12: never seen any player DH or not do fifty to
Speaker 12: fifty And obviously, stealing basis is easier than it's ever
Speaker 12: been in the game. But aside from that show, Hey,
Speaker 12: Otani definitely has put on a show. No I mean
Speaker 12: pun intended, I guess, but he really has. And that's
Speaker 12: not to take away what the season Lindor is having.
Speaker 4: But also, you know, you look at I know, the.
Speaker 12: Dodgers, you look at their record, you look at all
Speaker 12: the talent they have and all the superstars, but also
Speaker 12: at the same time, they've dealt with a lot of
Speaker 12: injuries as well, and obviously with shohe has done and
Speaker 12: meant also is vital for them to get to the
Speaker 12: position there And so to me right now, that's kind
Speaker 12: of where I'm definitely leaning just because we've never seen it.
Speaker 9: Thanks a lot, Nomar. You do a great job with
Speaker 9: John Hartongue and the rest of the crew. I appreciate
Speaker 9: you taking the time out and you look great as always.
Speaker 12: Good thing as we like each other. What Jerry is questionable,
Speaker 12: but you know, but at least we do like each other.
Speaker 9: Jerry's in a different category of his own. Thanks a lot, Nomar,
Speaker 9: you bet a day.
Speaker 4: Thanks there. He is the best.
Speaker 9: Sees the game really well, and obviously I've had some
Speaker 9: first hand experiences seeing Nomar being able to teach the game.
Speaker 9: It would be great if more of the players now
Speaker 9: would tap into him. We'll send it back to you
Speaker 9: in the studio.

Speaker 5: struggled lately.
Speaker 6: And for Miller, I mean, this is this is coming
Speaker 6: down to crunch time for Bobby Miller if he's going
Speaker 6: to make his statement. He comes in with an ERA
Speaker 6: is seven point seventy nine and off the injured list.
Speaker 6: He has been a disappointing season, making his twelve start,
Speaker 6: but is he going to pitch well enough and consistently
Speaker 6: enough to even be considered for postseason roster Although Dave
Speaker 6: Roberts made an interesting comment today. He says, hey, look,
Speaker 6: we're not guaranteed of postseason yet. We've got some territories
Speaker 6: still to cover.

Speaker 2: in the second inning as they take on the Seattle
Speaker 2: Mariners up in the Pacific Northwest. But the Arizona Dinabacks
Speaker 2: have already won a fourteen to four win over the
Speaker 2: Texas Rangers, so they have picked up a half game
Speaker 2: so as we speak going in both the Snakes and
