Speaker 1: One thing about this gene is the invisible and tangibles
Speaker 1: that they have. This teen is really becoming a family.
Speaker 1: Let's not play one on Tom.
Speaker 2: Let's wind it.
Speaker 3: I love writing me these guys after the show.
Speaker 4: So just thank you, give me are your attention, your
Speaker 4: fire and not a pisson.
Speaker 5: This is world champion, Dodger, world champion.
Speaker 4: Thing he put a.
Speaker 5: Small soft time they get up people what they want to.
Speaker 2: Die to in a row two is special.
Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, it's not a headache.
Speaker 1: One of a con.
Speaker 6: This ball's gone. You ready to go?
Speaker 5: Hell time go to the sud grab your phone to
Speaker 5: get in on the show called eight six six nine
Speaker 5: eighty seven two five seven and go to the show.
Speaker 5: And now your host of Dodger Talk, David Vasse.
Speaker 6: We are live at Peco Park in San Diego after
Speaker 6: the Dodgers hold on for an eight to seven win
Speaker 6: in ten innings. Welcome the Dodger Talk David Vase with
Speaker 6: you until eleven thirty tonight, taking your phone calls at
Speaker 6: eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy. A
Speaker 6: fun game tonight either way Dodgers win, Dodgers lose. This
Speaker 6: was a very entertaining game. Tonight, four different lead changes
Speaker 6: and the one that matters the most the final score
Speaker 6: eight to seven and ten innings. Kirby eights with the win.
Speaker 6: Tanner Scott gets his twelfth save of the season. I
Speaker 6: love the at bats from the Dodgers, especially against Nick
Speaker 6: Pivetta tonight. They came out aggressive, especially in that third inning.
Speaker 6: You saw a lot of first pitch swinging and that's
Speaker 6: when they did their damage. Mookie Betts was our pregame
Speaker 6: guest today and we talked about him getting back to
Speaker 6: what made Mookie Betts the superstar. That he is being
Speaker 6: aggressive early in the count, swinging at the first pitch
Speaker 6: if it's a good one, and pulling for power. And
Speaker 6: despite Mookie only having one hit tonight, I thought his
Speaker 6: at bats were fantastic. I hope he keeps it going.
Speaker 6: I hope he continues to be aggressive early in the count.
Speaker 6: And by the way, since Mookie Betts came back after
Speaker 6: missing four games, he's hitting five hundred and he had
Speaker 6: the first home run for the Dodgers in a handful
Speaker 6: of games yesterday in Saint Louis. So I like what
Speaker 6: I'm seeing from Mookie Bets. Freddie Freeman three more hits Tonight.
Speaker 6: I thought Hay Sun Kim came up with one of
Speaker 6: the bigger hits of the game time the game in
Speaker 6: the fifth inning against Matt Suey, the lefty to score
Speaker 6: monthsie and that took us to extra inning. So I
Speaker 6: really like what I saw from the Dodger offense. And
Speaker 6: it's not surprising, right these two teams who really have
Speaker 6: not been playing their best baseball. The Padres have been
Speaker 6: struggling as well. The Dodgers offense a little inconsistent, especially
Speaker 6: with runners in scoring position, especially against the opposition starting pitchers.
Speaker 6: These two teams brought the best out of each other,
Speaker 6: and I'm not I feel confident in saying this. This
Speaker 6: is probably the best game the Padres have played in
Speaker 6: a few weeks. And certainly the Dodgers got back on
Speaker 6: the right track yesterday, but this was the best I'd
Speaker 6: seen them, probably since the Yankee series at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 6: And how fun is the last two weeks have been
Speaker 6: of Dodger baseball, going back to that Yankee series, the
Speaker 6: four games against the Mets and this series against the Padres.
Speaker 6: There's four more coming up at Dodger Stadium. This has
Speaker 6: been really as entertaining and exciting and as up as
Speaker 6: you can be for regular season baseball in the month
Speaker 6: of the end of May beginning of June. It has
Speaker 6: been really fun. And I know there's been some disappointment
Speaker 6: and frustrations at times, but I can't think of another
Speaker 6: Dodger team that has been this entertaining and has brought
Speaker 6: so much attention to regular season games at this part
Speaker 6: of the season than this Dodger team. Eight six six
Speaker 6: seven two five seventy is the phone number. I see you.
Speaker 6: We will get to you, but first let's head downstairs
Speaker 6: to hear from the manager, Dave Roberts on Sports at
Speaker 6: La Resilience.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 7: It wasn't a pretty game, to be quite honest, you know,
Speaker 7: but we found a way to win, got some hits
Speaker 7: when we needed to, made some pitches when we needed to,
Speaker 7: and you know, here against this ball club will take
Speaker 7: take it anyway we can get it.
Speaker 6: What were you seeing from dustin May? What do you
Speaker 6: think is kind of kept him off balanced throughout this one?
Speaker 2: You know, I don't know.
Speaker 7: I think that, you know, I think it's fair to
Speaker 7: say that I think emotions were part of it. I
Speaker 7: think that trying to manage his emotions internally. You know,
Speaker 7: this is the first big ball game that he's pitching
Speaker 7: in quite some time as far as kind of on
Speaker 7: the road in this type of environment where you've got
Speaker 7: to sort of manage emotions, And for me, it was
Speaker 7: kind of the strike throwing. The command clearly wasn't there,
Speaker 7: and it was good to see him find his way.
Speaker 7: And I felt that his last two innings were his
Speaker 7: best innings and that's the thing I'm really proud of
Speaker 7: and the fact that you know, you could have waived
Speaker 7: the white flag and you know, had to really tax
Speaker 7: our pen, but he found a way to get through
Speaker 7: five innings and put us in a position to win
Speaker 7: the game tonight as well as win a series. So
Speaker 7: for me, that was my message to him on the
Speaker 7: growth part of it. But it overall, sir, sure wasn't great.
Speaker 2: Talking about the atmosphere. Did it feel like you were
Speaker 2: back in October?
Speaker 7: You know, I just think that the fans, certainly, they're
Speaker 7: always into it. You get two good ball clubs. I
Speaker 7: think the way you saw Mike manage and with some
Speaker 7: urgency and kind of the moves and I wouldn't say
Speaker 7: playoff game, but it was it was intense. It was
Speaker 7: fun out there.
Speaker 8: Boost has been just having Amy b in this he's
Speaker 8: been in the last month and a half for you
Speaker 8: offission less.
Speaker 2: Really yeah, you know, it's been great.
Speaker 7: We have obviously have our you know, cemented, solidified stars,
Speaker 7: but also to have a young player now you can
Speaker 7: kind of expect contribution from and he's doing it consistently
Speaker 7: getting big hits. Moment doesn't get too big, and it
Speaker 7: just adds at length where you know, a lot of
Speaker 7: times they're going to pitch around some of those guys
Speaker 7: at the top of the order, but you need some
Speaker 7: guys to get big hits, and and he's continued to
Speaker 7: do that, and he's got a good, good pulse.
Speaker 6: Andy Pajz came up with a big hit in the
Speaker 6: tent thinning, a go ahead RBI in the tent thinning
Speaker 6: to break the tie, and then Tommy Edmund came up
Speaker 6: with a huge base it up the middle for a
Speaker 6: huge insurance run that proved to be the difference in
Speaker 6: the game because Tanner Scott gave up a run with
Speaker 6: the place runner at second base double to Jackson Merrill.
Speaker 6: And you know, maybe the biggest pitch he made was
Speaker 6: a questionable call from Mike Esterbrook. It was called a
Speaker 6: strike three on Manny Machado, but if you go back
Speaker 6: and look at it, it was borderline at best and
Speaker 6: probably ball four. But the Dodgers will take it. You
Speaker 6: need some of those breaks in a close game. And
Speaker 6: Dave Roberts is right, Mike Shildt took Nick Pavetta out
Speaker 6: of the game because the pitch count. The Dodgers got
Speaker 6: it up after four innings. He had thrown ninety three
Speaker 6: pitches and certainly credit the Dodger offense for forcing Pavetta
Speaker 6: to throw thirty one of those ninety three in the
Speaker 6: first inning alone. Eight six, six, seven, two five seventy
Speaker 6: is the phone number. Let's go out to Fountain Valley. Mike.
Speaker 6: You're on Dodger Talk Live from San Diego.
Speaker 1: Hi, Mike, Hi, David Danks for taking my call. Uh
Speaker 1: oh boy, what a stretch. Well, we're about to finish
Speaker 1: up this stretch of twenty nine games against playoff games,
Speaker 1: and you know we're still two games in first that's
Speaker 1: you know, that's saying a lot right now. But consistent
Speaker 1: hitting and clutch hitting tonight. But like like Dave Roberts said,
Speaker 1: Dustin May needs to manage his emotions. But this is
Speaker 1: like the biggest series right now of the year, and
Speaker 1: he throws fifty strikes. I mean, what is he doing
Speaker 1: in between starts? Is he throwing his regular bullpen session?
Speaker 6: Mike, I think it goes back to the emotions that
Speaker 6: Dustin May has. He tried to control those emotions maybe
Speaker 6: a little bit too much tonight. I thought that was
Speaker 6: going to be an issue tonight. I asked Dave Roberts
Speaker 6: about it before the game, and he talked about it
Speaker 6: just now postgames. So a lot of times, you know,
Speaker 6: Mike and Fountain Valley or David on Dodger Talk. You know,
Speaker 6: we're not pitching coaches year. I'm not going to get
Speaker 6: into pitching mechanics because that's out of my classification. But
Speaker 6: I know people, and I know pitchers, and I know demeanors,
Speaker 6: I know body language, and it just seemed like, uh,
Speaker 6: whatever he was trying to do to manage those emotions,
Speaker 6: it wasn't working because he wasn't just misfiring high or inside.
Speaker 6: He was misfiring all over the place. So, uh yeah,
Speaker 6: I just think that you got to give Dustin May
Speaker 6: some credit for going five innings despite all that.
Speaker 1: Yes, exactly so, and that's where the rebound, you know,
Speaker 1: after what was it after the fifth inning? We kept
Speaker 1: the Potters scoreless until the tenth inning.
Speaker 6: So yeah, Anthony Bonda came in big for two scoreless
Speaker 6: innings after Dustin May came out. I thought he came
Speaker 6: up big faced the bottom of the order and also
Speaker 6: got the top of the order out as well. That
Speaker 6: was a huge bridge to the back end of the game.
Speaker 1: And then one more question and I'm done, But I
Speaker 1: didn't get to watch the game yesterday. Did Michael Kopek
Speaker 1: get to pitch?
Speaker 6: Yeah, he pitched in the ninth inning and was hitting
Speaker 6: ninety seven miles an hours. So that's a good sign.
Speaker 6: So Copeck and Kirby Yates being back part of this
Speaker 6: Dodger bullpen is huge. Now you got Banda, you got Vessia,
Speaker 6: you got Dryer, you got Caspiraus, you got Yates, you
Speaker 6: got Copeck, you got Tanner Scott. That's a lot different
Speaker 6: than what we saw last week at Dodger Stadium. Let's
Speaker 6: go out to Las Vegas. Sergio. You're on Dodger Talk
Speaker 6: Live from Peco Park.
Speaker 3: Hi Sergio, Hey David, thanks for taking the call. A
Speaker 3: great game by Will Smith. The bullpen pod has came through.
Speaker 3: I was telling that your screen and I was kind
Speaker 3: of cracking or tracking Dust and May's pitches today, and
Speaker 3: even even on the TV broadcast, we're saying that his
Speaker 3: usage of the sweepers up this year over forty percent.
Speaker 3: And I noticed that he had really good results when
Speaker 3: he threw the forcing fastball. But I'm looking at my
Speaker 3: chart here, first thing, only two second and only three
Speaker 3: thirty only three? Why is he Why is the four
Speaker 3: seamer his usage so low this year?
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a great question. Tonight he only threw it
Speaker 6: thirteen times, and he threw that sweeper forty times. The
Speaker 6: pitch that he loves to throw is that sinker. That's
Speaker 6: the fastball that he likes to throw. That's a great question.
Speaker 6: Maybe I'll ask him for you, Sergio and get the answer.
Speaker 6: But I don't have the answer right now. I could
Speaker 6: tell you this, like in I remember talking to him
Speaker 6: during the Freeway series. He loves that sweeper pitch against
Speaker 6: lefties because it runs in on him. So I can
Speaker 6: only imagine that, you know, he thought that that was
Speaker 6: a good pitch against Merrill and Gavin Sheets and Cronenworth
Speaker 6: and Wade. Maybe that's the reason why and arise. So
Speaker 6: there were a lot of lefties in the lineup tonight.
Speaker 6: Maybe that's what the pitch he thought he could neutralize
Speaker 6: those lefties with. But he he was just all over
Speaker 6: the place with his pitches today.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he got it out five innings for us.
Speaker 3: I mean at this point, that's what we need. At
Speaker 3: least he get five to six from the starter to
Speaker 3: get to the pen. Amazing job by Banda, two innings.
Speaker 3: The whole bullpen did a great job today.
Speaker 9: Thanks BV.
Speaker 6: All right, Sergie, I'll get that answer for you. And look, yeah,
Speaker 6: he gave the Dodgers five innings. But again, I think
Speaker 6: we always undersell the Dodger offense. And when I talk
Speaker 6: about being spoiled, we're spoiled because we see this Dodger
Speaker 6: offense every night. But the reality is it's an offense
Speaker 6: opposing pitchers don't want to see. And yeah, sometimes they
Speaker 6: don't perform up to our levels of expectations or what
Speaker 6: they've done the entire season. But the Dodgers scored eight
Speaker 6: runs tonight. The offense won this game, and so did
Speaker 6: the bullpen.
Speaker 2: Tonight.
Speaker 6: Let's go out to Saint Louis. Mike, you're on Dodger
Speaker 6: Talk with David vasse Hi.
Speaker 10: Mike, I was shaking Dave that Mahados.
Speaker 6: Can I just say something, Mike, Uh before you continue,
Speaker 6: Can I just say that I am very excited to
Speaker 6: be in San Diego over being in Saint Louis.
Speaker 2: Oh, good for you bro.
Speaker 3: Out that Maddy Machado made a second base He just
Speaker 3: showed up out of nowhere.
Speaker 2: It was weird.
Speaker 6: Uh, which one are you talking about.
Speaker 10: When he when when they had that weird play when
Speaker 10: they the ball was.
Speaker 6: They lost in the lights and it just dropped.
Speaker 11: No, no, no, the other one at at second base.
Speaker 6: I'm trying to which one that was. But that was
Speaker 6: so weird. What was the issue.
Speaker 10: Because he he came like, I don't think most third
Speaker 10: basemen would be there.
Speaker 6: He seems he shift. Yeah, they pinched. They get as
Speaker 6: close as they can behind second base, you know, they
Speaker 6: get as close as they can to pinch up the middle.
Speaker 6: And there were a couple of different plays when there
Speaker 6: was a left hander up and Machada would be playing
Speaker 6: around the shortstop area. That's where he was when that
Speaker 6: ball dropped. They couldn't see it.
Speaker 11: Okay, I was watching, I'm like, where the hell did
Speaker 11: that guy come from? So, yeah, explanation.
Speaker 2: I appreciate that, No.
Speaker 6: Problem, Mike, thanks for the phone call. Yeah, And there
Speaker 6: was another play where there many was the base runner
Speaker 6: at second base. There were two outs, a ground ball
Speaker 6: hit by uh I believe it was Merrill in that
Speaker 6: inning where Manny Machada was at second base and he
Speaker 6: tried to screen out Mookie Betts when he was actually
Speaker 6: was in the first inning. Yeah, first inning, Gavin Sheets
Speaker 6: HiT's a ground ball to Mookie Bets. Alright, Sorry, it
Speaker 6: was Bogarts. Bogarts hit the groundball to Mookie Bets, and Machado,
Speaker 6: being Manny Machado, was trying to screen out Mooky Bets
Speaker 6: on that play. Mooky did not flinch. He was able
Speaker 6: to make a strong throw to Freddie Freeman to get
Speaker 6: the final out of that first inning. But on the
Speaker 6: way back from right field, ta Oscar Hernandez and Manny
Speaker 6: Machado had a few words with each other because ta
Speaker 6: Oscar saw him try to screen Mookie Bets right there.
Speaker 6: So just a little inside inside of the game that
Speaker 6: I was picking up in that first inning eight six
Speaker 6: sixne eight seven two five seventy is the phone number.
Speaker 6: We're gonna take a time out here on Dodger Talk.
Speaker 6: When we come back, we'll hear from Will Smith and
Speaker 6: Tanner Scott, and we'll take more of your phone calls
Speaker 6: at eight sixty six nine, eight seven two five seventy plus.
Speaker 6: You'll hear from Tony Gonsolin and what the Dodgers are
Speaker 6: going to do to plug his spot in the rotation,
Speaker 6: because he is not going to be out just days,
Speaker 6: but it's weeks with that right elbow discomfort. You'll hear
Speaker 6: from Tony, and we'll let you hear from Dave roberts
Speaker 6: on who may take that spot in the short term.
Speaker 6: As the Dodgers go through this stretch of games without
Speaker 6: Blake Snell, without Roki Sazaki, and without Tyler Glassnell. But
Speaker 6: they hold on tonight eight to seven and ten innings
Speaker 6: over the padres on a five to seventy LA Sports.
Speaker 5: Dodger Talk is available on AM five seventy LA sports
Speaker 5: dot com, hand on the iHeartRadio app Back to more
Speaker 5: Dodger Talk with Dodger insider David Basse.
Speaker 4: Freddy Freeman also tagged in advance, going from second to third,
Speaker 4: so he's ninety feet away, only one out. Will Smith
Speaker 4: at the plague first pitch, hitting the air to left
Speaker 4: field on.
Speaker 2: The warning track.
Speaker 6: At the ball, it's gone.
Speaker 5: The Dodgers have come out swinging.
Speaker 6: First pitch swing in Hollywood's swinging in that third inning
Speaker 6: by the Dodgers, a two run home run by Will Smith.
Speaker 6: He drove in three runs tonight to help the Dodgers
Speaker 6: beat the Padres in ten innings, eight to seven. Daniels
Speaker 6: Jewelers presents the home run forecast go to AM five
Speaker 6: to seventy. LA sports dot Com used the keyword home
Speaker 6: run for your chance to win a fifty dollars Daniels
Speaker 6: Jewelers gift card predicting the number of home runs in
Speaker 6: the next game. Daniels Jewelers own the Dream. Eight six
Speaker 6: six nine, eight seven two five seventy is the phone number.
Speaker 6: By the way, I wish the Dodgers would have taken
Speaker 6: the lead in the eighth inning, only for the baseball
Speaker 6: gods to really make Adrian Mora Hoone pay for being
Speaker 6: so cocky. After Shoho Tani hit a comebacker to him,
Speaker 6: he kind of shrugs, said, oh all right, I got you, Otani,
Speaker 6: and then proceeded to throw the ball away and O'tani
Speaker 6: noticed it and was aggressive going all the way to
Speaker 6: second base. I would have loved for the Dodgers to
Speaker 6: score the goal ahead run in that eighth inning. Mike
Speaker 6: Schilt made a smart move because Mora Hone versus Mookie
Speaker 6: Betts was not a good matchup, so he walked Mooki
Speaker 6: intentionally and Freddie Freeman struck out to end the eighth inning.
Speaker 6: But that would have been sweet as well. Let's head
Speaker 6: downstairs right now to hear from Dodger catcher Will Smith
Speaker 6: on sports Net LA.
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's it's always fun games. You know, a great environment.
Speaker 12: You know a lot of talented baseball players out there
Speaker 12: competing each other.
Speaker 2: So, yeah, just a lot of fun.
Speaker 10: That has been excellent for them as of late.
Speaker 8: Just how are you able to get to him early
Speaker 8: and really kind of set the tone in this Onnesday?
Speaker 12: Yeah, we're able to get guys on. You're going to
Speaker 12: keep pressure on him and he had to make some pitches.
Speaker 12: We were able to xcute trod guys in and yeah,
Speaker 12: we just did a good.
Speaker 8: Job being able to answer back a couple of times. Really, Like,
Speaker 8: how big is that? Especially at the start of a series.
Speaker 8: Like this where there is going to be heightened emotions.
Speaker 2: And that sort of thing.
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's huge. You know, they did it to us
Speaker 12: as well. So going back and forth a little bit early,
Speaker 12: beating up on the starters, you know, teammate was struggling
Speaker 12: a little bit, but uh, was able to get through
Speaker 12: five innings.
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's just kind of a fun game. It's
Speaker 2: kind of how it went. And uh, you know we
Speaker 2: went on top.
Speaker 10: You feel like you just picked my back up from
Speaker 10: last October first three innings.
Speaker 2: Like the way he was back and forth, it was
Speaker 2: just no, he felt like another game in June.
Speaker 8: What were the relievers doing so well to kind of
Speaker 8: string together zeros there late?
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were.
Speaker 12: They were just executing next sekuing their pitches, keeping guys
Speaker 12: of balance.
Speaker 2: And uh, you know they did a really good job.
Speaker 2: You seeing from Dustin today, Yeah.
Speaker 12: Uh, he was just struggling with execution, you know, fall
Speaker 12: behind and counts. Didn't really seem like he ever found
Speaker 12: a fuel for anything. You know that that happens. But
Speaker 12: he was able to keep us in the ball game
Speaker 12: and go out there and compete, eat up a couple
Speaker 12: of innings, five innings, and uh, you know, keep us there.
Speaker 6: All right. There's Will Smith on sports net LA, a
Speaker 6: guy that just keeps it even keel. Never gets too
Speaker 6: high and never gets too low. He's just Will Smith.
Speaker 6: You know there's a Mendoza line for hitters, you know
Speaker 6: below above the Mendoza line two hundred. I'd say there's
Speaker 6: a Will Smith tone as far as interviews go. He's
Speaker 6: he's the baseline and he never gets too high. He
Speaker 6: never gets too low. You either got to go way
Speaker 6: above on the spectrum on Will, or you gotta go
Speaker 6: way below. But he's always consistent. Eight six six seven
Speaker 6: two five seventy is the phone number. Dodgers beat the
Speaker 6: Padres tonight eight to seven in ten innings. Let's go
Speaker 6: out to my neighborhood, Woodland Hills a mirror. You're on
Speaker 6: Dodger Talk. How you doing a.
Speaker 10: Mere good Dave, how you doing? Thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 10: I had one comment and one question I wanted to say.
Speaker 10: I really like what Bandit did out there tonight, going
Speaker 10: two innings and relief. I feel like he's kind of
Speaker 10: building confidence in the last you know week. Guys were
Speaker 10: getting on him early in the season when he was
Speaker 10: having a little trouble, so it was good to see him, uh,
Speaker 10: you know, pitch two innings in that spot. And then my.
Speaker 1: Question is, do you know.
Speaker 10: What the timelines are for our bullpen for when we're
Speaker 10: fully healthy, like when we get Graderol trying in. Is
Speaker 10: there a chance we get one healthy? When would that be?
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a great question. There's no guarantees either one
Speaker 6: are going to come back, but if they do, it'll
Speaker 6: be the second half of the season a mirror.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay.
Speaker 10: And and for Emma Sheenan when he got when he
Speaker 10: comes back, is he going to be used primarily as
Speaker 10: a starter.
Speaker 6: Yes, he will be. And I'm glad you asked because
Speaker 6: Dave Roberts kind of filled us in on who might
Speaker 6: take Tony Gonsolin's spot in the rotation. And thank you
Speaker 6: for the phone. Here here's what Dave Roberts had to
Speaker 6: say when I asked him. With Tony Gonsolin out now
Speaker 6: for the foreseeable future, and Glass now, Blake Snell and
Speaker 6: Roki Sazaki not coming back in the next couple of weeks,
Speaker 6: who is going to take that spot in the rotation?
Speaker 7: We've got the bullpen game tomorrow. Robo is gonna fill
Speaker 7: in obviously, and he's doing fine, and then we got
Speaker 7: an off day to kind of keep guys with the
Speaker 7: extra day, So I think we'll be fine. But as
Speaker 7: far as that last spot, we'll kind of see where
Speaker 7: we go. Without he's coming, he's competation's gonna pitch this week.
Speaker 7: He was three plus a few days ago, so he's
Speaker 7: gonna go this week, and the plan is to get
Speaker 7: him through four innings. So if he can do that,
Speaker 7: then he's sort of going to be a viable conversation.
Speaker 6: There we go. Yeah, he's in the conversation for sure.
Speaker 6: And Blake Snell is going to throw a bullpen session
Speaker 6: here in San Diego tomorrow. Whatever you saw on social
Speaker 6: media was a little misleading. Snell did not throw a
Speaker 6: bullpen session at Dodger Stadium when the team was in
Speaker 6: Saint Louis. He was throwing off the mound, but they
Speaker 6: were ten throws, he told me with the catcher standing up.
Speaker 6: Tomorrow is going to be his first bullpen session since
Speaker 6: the Dodgers shut him down with that left shoulder issue
Speaker 6: and show Heyo Tani is scheduled to throw a simulated
Speaker 6: game here around two o'clock in the afternoon at Petco Park.
Speaker 6: Eight six, six nine, eight seven two five seventy is
Speaker 6: the phone number. Dodgers beat the Padres tonight eight to
Speaker 6: seven in ten innings. Speaking of Tony, Gonsolin had a
Speaker 6: chance to talk to Tony for the first time since
Speaker 6: we got worried that he was going on the injured
Speaker 6: list with inflammation right elbow discomfort. Here's what Tony had
Speaker 6: to say. They're shutting him down from throwing, and you
Speaker 6: know it's going to take a while for him to
Speaker 6: build back up, and you can imagine the disappointment in
Speaker 6: him after missing so much time then re then entering
Speaker 6: is back in spring training and now this here's what
Speaker 6: Tony had to say before the game.
Speaker 13: Yeah, nothing, We had to shut it down. Definitely felt
Speaker 13: it wasn't nothing, So maybe that was something.
Speaker 2: To be alerted about or to cause.
Speaker 13: The attention to We brought attention to whatever, But ultimately,
Speaker 13: like velocity was still good, it was still climbing. And
Speaker 13: then this year, you know, I feel like I've been
Speaker 13: holding my VLO well throughout the outings. It's been a
Speaker 13: tick up of where it's been in the past few years,
Speaker 13: and I was just hopefully taking that as something positive
Speaker 13: that everything's okay in there. Ultimately, how I'm feeling is
Speaker 13: just like I feel like I'm letting the team down.
Speaker 13: I feel like those are innings that I should be
Speaker 13: eating up. And you know, it's baseball. It happens. Injuries happen.
Speaker 13: Just really sucks. I'm very frustrated after all the time
Speaker 13: I've spent strengthening and going through all that. You know,
Speaker 13: then I had my back and then now now this,
Speaker 13: I'm just very frustrated with where my body's at and
Speaker 13: that is not holding together as of Brad now. So yeah,
Speaker 13: just trying to get through it. Hopefully this isn't too
Speaker 13: long and come back feeling stronger and finish to the
Speaker 13: year strong and into playoffs. I think the fact that
Speaker 13: it was so aggy post start is like big fan
Speaker 13: like I thought, maybe there's like a little tear in it,
Speaker 13: but I'm glad there's there's nothing.
Speaker 6: All right. There's Tony Gonsolin before today's game speaking to
Speaker 6: me and a couple of other beat riders there. He
Speaker 6: is out for weeks, uh, not throwing the baseball, which
Speaker 6: means it's going to take him time to build up.
Speaker 6: So we're talking post All Star break. If Tony Gonsolin
Speaker 6: comes back this season. Eight six six seven two five
Speaker 6: seventy is the phone number. Let's go out to see me.
Speaker 6: Valley Ben, You're on Dodger Talk Live from San Diego.
Speaker 14: Hi Ben, Hi, David, thank you for taking my good
Speaker 14: victorious victory tonight. I always look forward to these matchups,
Speaker 14: and you've talked about before. How you know Jason Hayward
Speaker 14: is the It will be a good veteran presence in
Speaker 14: that San Diego locker room. Disappointed I didn't get to
Speaker 14: see him tonight. I don't know if he's injured or what,
Speaker 14: but he needs to Oh yeah, okay, Well I think
Speaker 14: he needs to have a sit down with that outfield
Speaker 14: er Lockridge because that ball, that pot has hit and
Speaker 14: the tenth inning looked like it could have been caught.
Speaker 14: Maybe that Lockridge took a bad lead on the ball.
Speaker 10: Do you think about that.
Speaker 6: I'm not sure why he broke in. I mean that
Speaker 6: was over his head for sure. It seemed like there
Speaker 6: was a lot of issues out there in left field
Speaker 6: earlier in the game. They lost the ball, and I
Speaker 6: don't know the lights, the twilight, there was no clouds
Speaker 6: in the sky tonight, so yeah, it was fortunate for
Speaker 6: the Dodgers, but very strange whatever was happening out there
Speaker 6: in left field. Thanks for the phone call, Ben appreciated.
Speaker 6: Eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy is
Speaker 6: the phone number. Kirby Yates got the winning relief for
Speaker 6: the Dodgers. Tanner Scott got his twelfth save of the year.
Speaker 6: He was able to go through the heart of the
Speaker 6: Padres order without giving back the two runs the Dodgers
Speaker 6: scored in the top of the tenth inning. Yes, Jackson
Speaker 6: Merrill doubled home the place runner at second base, but
Speaker 6: he was able to get Manny Machado on what Machado
Speaker 6: thought was ball four. Let's head downstairs right now to
Speaker 6: hear from the former Padre who got the save against
Speaker 6: his former team and now wearing a Dodger uniform. He's
Speaker 6: on Sports ned La Tanner Scott speaking to the media.
Speaker 2: Uh, it was just another game.
Speaker 12: I mean I take every game the same way, and
Speaker 12: I mean it was my former team, so that I
Speaker 12: don't work.
Speaker 2: With Manny And what were you trying to do with
Speaker 2: that last pitch, striker.
Speaker 12: Uh, I was trying to come out with it and
Speaker 12: luckily it worked out in my favor.
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't have anything else on the back door.
Speaker 2: If that's what if that's what you want to think ahead.
Speaker 8: Like fiing on FOSA or playing for both these teams recently,
Speaker 8: Like do these games kind of carrying added importance to
Speaker 8: you or even just a heightened intensity like when you're
Speaker 8: going through the day or just being out there, you
Speaker 8: know what, the kind of crowds they get that.
Speaker 2: Sort of I mean definitely. I mean it's our rival.
Speaker 12: I mean, any any team that plays Arrival, there's always
Speaker 12: a little added intensity.
Speaker 2: And uh yeah, we got out with the win.
Speaker 6: Hey, that was big for Tanner Scott and I feel
Speaker 6: like his season turned on the last home stand. He
Speaker 6: gave up a couple of go ahead runs in the
Speaker 6: tenth inning to the Mets. The Dodgers were in the
Speaker 6: same situation the very next game. Dave Roberts did not
Speaker 6: hesitate to bring Tanner Scott back in the tenth inning
Speaker 6: to face the heart of the Mets lineup. He struck
Speaker 6: out Soto, he struck out Alonso, and he got Brandon
Speaker 6: Nimmo to pop up to give the Dodgers the opportunity.
Speaker 6: On that night that Freddie Freeman hit the walk off
Speaker 6: double to win the game. And uh, I'm going I
Speaker 6: know I've been jokingly taking credit for firing up Tanner Scott,
Speaker 6: but there was another teammate that helped boost his confidence.
Speaker 6: It's all about confidence with some of these guys. You
Speaker 6: may think that their confidence is always at an all
Speaker 6: time high. Look they're humans too. They have highs and lows.
Speaker 6: A teammate and uh, I'm not provy to say who
Speaker 6: it was, but found a way to get Tanner Scott's
Speaker 6: confidence back to where it belongs, and he reminded him
Speaker 6: of who he was last year. It may come out
Speaker 6: it may not, but it wasn't. It wasn't me. It
Speaker 6: was a teammate. Obviously. Let's go out to Newport Beach. Ken.
Speaker 6: You're on Dodger Talk with David vasse hi Ken.
Speaker 1: Hello, David.
Speaker 11: If somebody would have called me up, you know, so
Speaker 11: I got some said go friends, and they would have said, hey,
Speaker 11: your starting pitcher gave up six runs, six sys and
Speaker 11: four locks and three innings and your your two big guys,
Speaker 11: Hernandez and Otani. Again no RBIs and no hits for Hernandez,
Speaker 11: he's short hitting one hundred.
Speaker 9: Uh.
Speaker 6: You love bringing that up. Recently. You love bringing up
Speaker 6: my guy tales in a slump.
Speaker 11: Because it's amazing that the Dodgers won this game. They
Speaker 11: won this game with the bottom of their lineup. And
Speaker 11: by the way, mana Minchildad's got thirteen errors and nobody
Speaker 11: brought that up. So that was one of the most
Speaker 11: amazing games because the bottom of the lineup won the game.
Speaker 11: And your superstars are not ready yet, and it was
Speaker 11: an incredible game and an important game.
Speaker 6: What are you talking about Freeman had three hits tonight.
Speaker 11: Well, we always know he's going to get his hits.
Speaker 6: Well, he's one of the superstars.
Speaker 10: I know, I know.
Speaker 11: But the point is this was an important game because
Speaker 11: those three teams are all within a game a game
Speaker 11: and a half of each other, and the Giants are
Speaker 11: playing really good. So this was a crucial game. And
Speaker 11: by the way, Yates I think is really good. I
Speaker 11: liked his pitching quite a bit. So anyway, phenomenal game.
Speaker 11: I still don't believe they won. Congratulation and Dodgers.
Speaker 6: That's why it's a team Ken, that's why it's one
Speaker 6: through nine, it's not just three guys.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you are right.
Speaker 6: And by the way you said the superstars didn't show up, well,
Speaker 6: two of the four did. I liked all mookies at
Speaker 6: bats tonight. I like what I saw tonight. Will Smith
Speaker 6: three RBIs like I said, Freddie Freeman scored twice. He
Speaker 6: had three hits, so I agree with you. The bottom
Speaker 6: of the order, Pa, haz Edmund and Kim came up
Speaker 6: big tonight. But you know, Will Smith and Freddy Freeman
Speaker 6: had a lot to do with tonight's game.
Speaker 11: Two for sure, for sure. Just a great win. And
Speaker 11: let's do it again tomorrow.
Speaker 6: I love it, Ken and you called after a win,
Speaker 6: that's a big deal.
Speaker 11: Yeah, this was an exciting game. I mean, one of
Speaker 11: the most exciting games I've seen in a long time.
Speaker 11: Because San Diego is our enemy. Last Giants Weekend san Diego.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, he's Dodgers. That was a great series. That
Speaker 6: was exciting. Mets Dodgers, very exciting. And now you got
Speaker 6: Dodgers Padres. So the Dodgers have been win or lose,
Speaker 6: have been giving I'll giving you a lot of entertaining baseball.
Speaker 11: It's been really fun, really crazy. Let's wear at least
Speaker 11: one more of these next two before we got go
Speaker 11: with Giants, which are now only a game and a half.
Speaker 6: You worry about the Giants. Don't worry about the Giants.
Speaker 6: I know, I know how the disparity when they get
Speaker 6: to Dodgers Stadium. Let's see what the Giant scott next
Speaker 6: week at Dodger Stadium. Thanks for the phone call, can
Speaker 6: appreciate it. Look, we talk about this a lot. The
Speaker 6: games are too long for certain teams, and I'm still
Speaker 6: a firm believer the season is too long for the Giants,
Speaker 6: and it may be too long for the Padres. Look,
Speaker 6: they're handcuffed what they can do roster wise with the
Speaker 6: way their ownership is right now after the unfortunate passing
Speaker 6: of a great man, Peter Seidler. So I don't know
Speaker 6: what they can do to really make a significant upgrade
Speaker 6: before the trade deadline to help their pitching. But they're
Speaker 6: using their high leverage relievers quite a bit. And how
Speaker 6: long can that last? So I thought tonight maybe a
Speaker 6: microcosm for the entire season. How the Padres had to
Speaker 6: go to Wandy Peralta in the tenth inning while the
Speaker 6: Dodgers are going to Tanner Scott. That's the biggest difference
Speaker 6: between these two teams. Let's go out to El Sereno, Charlie,
Speaker 6: you're on Dodger Talk live from Petco Park.
Speaker 9: Hey, it was up, David. Thanks for having me on.
Speaker 11: Man.
Speaker 9: You know, I just want to kind of pick up
Speaker 9: what he said earlier about Will Smith and his Evening
Speaker 9: two attitude. I think I just want to let all
Speaker 9: the Dodgers fans know that we need to take the
Speaker 9: page out of Will Smith's even cute about the Dodgers.
Speaker 9: You know, a lot of times we overreact on losses
Speaker 9: here in there, but when it's time to clutch up
Speaker 9: the Dodgers come through, I think we just need to relax.
Speaker 9: We've got to trust the Dodgers. They knew they're doing
Speaker 9: all the right thing. We're back to you know, we're champions,
Speaker 9: so we need to kind of just stay chill, not
Speaker 9: overreact on these little things, and just trust the process.
Speaker 9: So that's all I want to say this, all.
Speaker 6: Right, Charlie, be safe out there, Okay, appreciate you all
Speaker 6: right there, he goes Charlie and El Sereno with great
Speaker 6: cliches to end Dodger Talk Tonight tomorrow. Matt Sour who
Speaker 6: I help, by the way, find his way into Pecko
Speaker 6: Park this afternoon. I was walking the streets of the
Speaker 6: gas lamp right in front of Petco Park and the
Speaker 6: Omni Hotel. That's where Matt Sours. Uber dropped him off
Speaker 6: from the San Diego airport with his baseball bag and
Speaker 6: his luggage, and he had no idea how to get
Speaker 6: inside Peco Park, so I ushered him into the ballpark
Speaker 6: around one point thirty this afternoon. And Matt sour is
Speaker 6: going to be activated for tomorrow night's game because it
Speaker 6: is going to be a bullpen game and he will
Speaker 6: be a big part of it. The Dodgers are going
Speaker 6: up against Dylan C's who is not off to a
Speaker 6: great start. He's one in five with an ERA of
Speaker 6: four seventy two. Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck begins at
Speaker 6: five thirty tomorrow with first pitch at six forty. That'll
Speaker 6: do it for us tonight on Dodger Talk. Thanks to
