Rick Monday, this is a special 96 00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:26.000 day in our countries, especially day in. 97 00:04:25.959 --> 00:04:26.800 Major League Baseball. 98 00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:29.839 There's just something about the fourth of July in this 99 00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:32.000 sport that makes it work. 100 00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:36.000 It goes together, and I think that everybody comes together 101 00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:37.920 on these days, you know, whether it be in stadiums, 102 00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:41.639 where to be at home, it doesn't really matter. And 103 00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:44.360 we're going to see a displaying of the military here today, 104 00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:47.240 presenting the largest flag you can possibly see. The national 105 00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:49.319 anthem is going to be here, one hundred and fifty 106 00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:53.879 really joint services will be presenting the flag on the field. 107 00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:58.160 And it's one of those moments that we're fortunate to 108 00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:01.319 live in a pretty darn good country and work. 109 00:05:01.160 --> 00:05:03.759 In an amazing place like Dodgers stated, where we are 110 00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:06.680 going to see what should be one heck of a 111 00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:07.480 baseball series. 112 00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:07.720 Malt. 113 00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:09.879 The Dodgers are the best record in Major League baseball. 114 00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:13.040 The Houston Astros tied for the third best mark in baseball, 115 00:05:13.079 --> 00:05:15.319 but Houston o'ver really over the last month has been 116 00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:18.480 the hottest team in Major League Baseball. Both teams dealing 117 00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:20.360 with injuries, so not one hundred percent for the Dodgers, 118 00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:22.519 obviously more so on the pitching side for the Astros. 119 00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:25.000 They've lost some key cogs in the lineup. But still 120 00:05:25.399 --> 00:05:27.800 when these two get together on the weekend like this. 121 00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:30.439 We're expecting fireworks. Yeah, and especially in the same train 122 00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:32.959 of fun are you talking about? If you look since 123 00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:35.240 the first of June, these are the top two teams 124 00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:37.680 in baseball as far as the records go. Astros twenty 125 00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:40.519 one and eight, Dodgers twenty and ten. And if we 126 00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:42.759 look at this Dodgers in recently, you know, nine games 127 00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:45.160 now in front in the Western Division, in front of 128 00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:47.240 both San Diego and San Francisco. And if you look 129 00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:49.959 at Houston, they have a seven game lead in front 130 00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:53.000 of the Seattle Mariners in the American League Western Division. 131 00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:55.120 So it is Dodger buckleb in a row, having won 132 00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:57.079 now fifteen to the last eighteen game. 133 00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:59.279 I mean, it's pretty remarkable. They were tied to top 134 00:05:59.319 --> 00:05:59.879 the Nation League. 135 00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:02.920 In the middle of June, Dude fourteenth tiede and in 136 00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:05.959 less than a month nine games of separation. So look, 137 00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:07.920 you know the Dodgers finished at Gauntlet, and then they 138 00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:10.000 got to the softer spot of their schedule, right and 139 00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:14.439 they feasted the Nationals, the Rockies, the Royals, and sweeping 140 00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:15.600 the White Sox coming into this. 141 00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:16.720 That's what good teams do. 142 00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:19.279 Yeah, And I think there's a sidelight to this series too, 143 00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:22.399 mostly in the minds of the fans more than the players, 144 00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:26.199 because if they have a history obviously in the World Series, 145 00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:28.759 in the history you know, the trash can routine and 146 00:06:28.759 --> 00:06:30.879 everything else, But there are very few players on either 147 00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:33.720 team that were there and up close and personal at 148 00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:36.160 that time. It's not out of the realm of possibility 149 00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:37.680 of the memory of as far as. 150 00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:38.120 The fans go. 151 00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:40.079 And we're going to hear it when jose Ol two 152 00:06:40.079 --> 00:06:42.680 we comes to home late, one would imagine. But let's 153 00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:44.639 not lose sight of the fact. These are two very 154 00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:47.240 talented teams and this is about who's going to win 155 00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:49.040 this three game series one hundred percent. 156 00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:52.439 Only four players, two on each side, remained for the 157 00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:54.720 twenty seventeen World Series and Josel to be the only 158 00:06:54.759 --> 00:06:57.680 position player. The other one tonight started for the Houston 159 00:06:57.759 --> 00:06:59.279 Nashos Lance mccullis. 160 00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:01.240 So those four they can growl back and forth to 161 00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:03.360 one another, but there's a baseball game to be. 162 00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:05.639 One and we can't wait for it.

How you kind of 206 00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:16.759 gain in your mouth when you say the Houston Astros. 207 00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:19.879 And I was asking, now, look, there's not many guys 208 00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:21.919 still on this team that were part of that twenty 209 00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:25.279 seventeen World Series. It's really just now Clayton Kusha and 210 00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:28.440 Keith ky Hernandez and of course Dave Roberts. But I 211 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:31.600 was talking to Dave as well as Clayton earlier, just 212 00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:35.360 asking what is the feeling today. It's now twenty twenty five, 213 00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:38.080 so it has been some time. But ultimately, like you said, 214 00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:40.399 whenever we think of the Astros, you're immediately going back 215 00:09:40.440 --> 00:09:42.240 to that World Series, We're immediately going back to the 216 00:09:42.320 --> 00:09:44.960 cheating scandal, and there is that bitter feeling. And so 217 00:09:45.559 --> 00:09:48.919 with talking to Clayton, he was saying for him when 218 00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:51.399 you look at these teams today, So even on the 219 00:09:51.399 --> 00:09:55.039 Astros with their roster, they only have two players from 220 00:09:55.039 --> 00:09:58.200 that twenty seventeen World Series as well, so you can't 221 00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:01.240 look at them with quote like a hatreot of say, 222 00:10:01.279 --> 00:10:03.240 that's not a feeling, but there is just kind of 223 00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:07.159 that frustrating reminder of, you know, the Dodgers putting so 224 00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:09.200 much hard work to win the World Series that year, 225 00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:12.120 and unfortunately they weren't even in a position where they 226 00:10:12.120 --> 00:10:14.559 could have won it due to the cheating that had happened. 227 00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:17.000 So it's more of that feeling. And in I asked 228 00:10:17.039 --> 00:10:20.440 Dave Roberts, he was on the page of just it's 229 00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:23.000 not something they look at anymore. You know, again, the 230 00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:26.360 teams look so different today. It's not something they're thinking 231 00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:28.759 about going into this series. It's a good ball club 232 00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:30.799 they're looking to just of course, for the Dodgers to 233 00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:34.000 pick up a series win. They've been playing excellent baseball 234 00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:35.960 as of late, whether it's been the pitchings and the 235 00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:39.000 offense get going, so they want to continue with that. So, 236 00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:42.080 you know, look, it's something that's always going to be there. 237 00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:44.240 It's always going to be somewhere in the back of mine, 238 00:10:44.279 --> 00:10:46.759 but it is no longer top of mind for these guys. 239 00:10:47.120 --> 00:10:50.240 You mentioned the offense keeping it going. No Maximundsee for 240 00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:52.679 six to eight weeks, he had been red hot, hitting 241 00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:56.200 the ball on the ballpark. They need somebody or somebodies 242 00:10:56.679 --> 00:10:58.960 to pick up the slack. Kind of feels like Michael 243 00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:01.559 Confordo could be one of those guys. 244 00:11:02.279 --> 00:11:03.320 He absolutely could be. 245 00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:05.440 And that's what Dave Roberts was saying today. When you 246 00:11:05.519 --> 00:11:07.799 have a player like Max Munty, who you said he 247 00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:09.759 was getting hot at the plate, he was showing power 248 00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:12.200 even when you look at just the specific at bats, 249 00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:14.919 getting the pitch count up. He is an aggressive at bat, 250 00:11:14.919 --> 00:11:17.080 and so when you have a player like that, it's 251 00:11:17.279 --> 00:11:19.639 very challenging to replace him, even though, like you said, 252 00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:21.320 that's six to eight weeks timeline. 253 00:11:21.360 --> 00:11:22.080 So what does that. 254 00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:23.759 Mean the middle of the order is going to find 255 00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:25.480 I have to find ways to really get some things 256 00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:28.639 going to kind of replace that. So, whether it's Michael 257 00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:31.240 Conforto who for him. I spoke to him earlier. He 258 00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:33.960 was saying that he feels like he's really getting there. 259 00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:36.039 You know, he added a leg kick to a swing. 260 00:11:36.360 --> 00:11:38.279 He feels like he's on time and that's when he's 261 00:11:38.279 --> 00:11:40.480 been showing more power as of late, and for him 262 00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:43.840 that's a clear just connector that he is on time 263 00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:46.679 with his swing. So he's hoping that he can continue 264 00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:49.519 to just build off of that the momentum there. Andy 265 00:11:49.559 --> 00:11:51.720 pa Has is another name that Dave said that you 266 00:11:51.720 --> 00:11:53.240 know he's hoping to see kind of step up in 267 00:11:53.240 --> 00:11:57.519 that position as well as Taoscar Hernandez. And for Taosker, 268 00:11:57.519 --> 00:12:00.600 it's getting him back to that all start caliber that 269 00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:02.519 we know he is capable of being at. And so 270 00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:05.559 we did see him get his one thousandth career hit 271 00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:08.240 last night. So we're starting to see just the build 272 00:12:08.360 --> 00:12:10.519 up of different guys and so hopefully we can see 273 00:12:10.519 --> 00:12:13.960 the continuation because of course, like you said, with no maximunsay, 274 00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:16.679 that's a tough blow, but hopefully we can see these 275 00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:19.039 other guys really step up it kind of be the 276 00:12:19.080 --> 00:12:21.440 guy and be the filler that support their teammate while he's. 277 00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:23.840 Down, hopefully provide some fireworks on the field and then 278 00:12:23.919 --> 00:12:26.240 enjoy some fireworks. 279 00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:26.320 After the game tonight. 280 00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:27.960 Curious and we appreciate it still to come here on 281 00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:31.480 Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, David Masseagos one on one 282 00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:35.360 with Clayton and Kershaw.

First pitch 294 00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:10.240 at sixten. 295 00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:14.120 He's the LA Dodgers. 296 00:13:14.320 --> 00:13:17.960 Injury Report presented by UCLA Healthy Official medical partner of 297 00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:20.399 the Los Angeles Dodgers. Max Munsey on the IL with 298 00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:24.000 the left knee bone bruise, Michael Kopek on the i 299 00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:26.399 L with the right knee inflammation, Tony Gonsol on the 300 00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:29.279 sixty day IL. Tyler Glass, now working his way back, 301 00:13:29.320 --> 00:13:33.240 had another minor league rehab started in Oklahoma's city last night. 302 00:13:33.720 --> 00:13:35.919 More on that, I think, with Dave Roberts coming up 303 00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:38.240 here in just a couple of minutes, Blake Snell Blake 304 00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:41.440 shrine him both through SIM games and live BP sessions 305 00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:43.840 a couple of days ago at a Dodger stadium. All right, 306 00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:45.159 let's find out more from the Dodgers. 307 00:13:45.200 --> 00:13:45.799 Kibberd A. 308 00:13:47.840 --> 00:13:48.799 Questions for Dave Dave? 309 00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:50.720 Can you just describe Dave? 310 00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:52.600 Can you talk about the pressure. 311 00:13:53.039 --> 00:13:56.480 In the dugouts with Dave Roberts Dave. 312 00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:02.440 The twenty seventeen But is it something that is that 313 00:14:02.600 --> 00:14:05.840 world series, something that's still top of fine for you when. 314 00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:07.240 You see this tea things? 315 00:14:07.639 --> 00:14:12.159 Not at all. I think that certainly, you know, there's 316 00:14:12.159 --> 00:14:16.159 been some history with our organizations, but you know, if 317 00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:19.080 you look at in reality, you know most of those 318 00:14:19.080 --> 00:14:22.519 guys are gone. So I don't think that it certainly 319 00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:26.360 does have any bearing on this series this weekend. But 320 00:14:27.519 --> 00:14:29.399 I just yeah, that's a good ball club over there, 321 00:14:29.399 --> 00:14:30.080 and we're trying to win. 322 00:14:30.320 --> 00:14:30.919 We've ben today. 323 00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:32.039 What are you hoping to see from him? 324 00:14:32.080 --> 00:14:32.919 Just I know he was sick of. 325 00:14:32.960 --> 00:14:33.480 His last one. 326 00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:35.279 For him to get going and to. 327 00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:38.600 Have the actual start today, I think for Ben, he's 328 00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:42.879 back to feeling normal. What I'm looking for is just 329 00:14:42.919 --> 00:14:45.679 to get back to the crispness that he had, you 330 00:14:45.679 --> 00:14:49.440 know before the last few outings. I think that the 331 00:14:49.480 --> 00:14:54.840 fastball command, the cutter, the sweeper has just not been 332 00:14:54.840 --> 00:14:58.320 as crisp as as it was early. And so certainly, yeah, 333 00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:00.799 we're extending him out a little bit long or stretching 334 00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:04.159 them out, but getting back to being effishing and getting 335 00:15:04.200 --> 00:15:06.840 quick outs and it's not gonna be a pitch count thing. 336 00:15:06.919 --> 00:15:08.759 And just kind of give us some link today. 337 00:15:10.000 --> 00:15:13.679 Last year months he went out for a business Your 338 00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:16.919 replacements at third base did not approve your software. 339 00:15:17.759 --> 00:15:19.120 It was a drag on the offense. 340 00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:22.799 Thomas, what's the plan this Year's where going to be out? 341 00:15:23.080 --> 00:15:23.279 Said? 342 00:15:23.320 --> 00:15:23.759 At times? 343 00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:26.519 The plan right now is Tom He's going to start 344 00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:30.240 taking some grounders at third which he's done in the past. 345 00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:33.679 So sometime next week I'll run him out there at 346 00:15:33.720 --> 00:15:39.320 third base against right handed pitching to give Heysong some 347 00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:43.519 runway at second base verse right and then verse left. 348 00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:46.960 It's going to be a combo of Kik and Rojas 349 00:15:47.000 --> 00:15:47.600 at third base. 350 00:15:47.879 --> 00:15:50.320 All right, there's the manager, Dave Roberts talking about the plan. 351 00:15:50.399 --> 00:15:53.559 For third base moving forward. Max Monsey out with the 352 00:15:53.600 --> 00:15:55.879 bone bruise in the knee. Will we continue here on 353 00:15:55.919 --> 00:15:57.799 Dodgers on Deck. We will check in with David Vasse 354 00:15:58.000 --> 00:15:59.960 gets you all the latest. Don't forget Dave's going to 355 00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:03.200 go one on one with Clayton Kershaw. That's coming up 356 00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:06.200 in about twenty five minutes. As we lead up to 357 00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:08.879 first pitch on this fourth of July, Dodgers and the 358 00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:11.679 Astros of Tim Kates is the world champion Los Angeles 359 00:16:11.679 --> 00:16:13.080 Dodgers Audio Network. 360 00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:19.879 As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino, Dodgers on 361 00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:23.960 deack on the official home of LA Dodgers Baseball. 362 00:16:25.720 --> 00:16:28.639 It's the Dodgers and the Astros on this fourth of 363 00:16:28.840 --> 00:16:31.360 July and Consparius Lance McCullers Junior. 364 00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:34.240 The pitching matchup, first pitch set for six. 365 00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:38.919 Ten, joining Tim Kates on Dodgers on Deck. 366 00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:40.759 I accept everybody for who they are. 367 00:16:40.840 --> 00:16:44.039 This is Dodger inside there, David Basse. 368 00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:47.279 All right, DVI, we just heard from the manager, Dave Roberts. 369 00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:50.080 What's the feeling you're getting as far as the plan 370 00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:53.080 now with third base and Tommy Edmund how much starts 371 00:16:53.080 --> 00:16:53.840 he's gonna get there? 372 00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:58.360 Yeah. I talked to the Dodgers GM earlier today Brandan Gomes, 373 00:16:58.399 --> 00:17:01.080 and they're very comfortable with the trio that they're going 374 00:17:01.159 --> 00:17:03.879 to have over there at the hot corner. While Max 375 00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:08.599 Munsey is coming back from a left knee bone bruise today, 376 00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:12.400 Keith a Hernandez yesterday, Miguel Rojas, and you're going to 377 00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:15.119 see a lot of Tommy Edmond at third base, especially 378 00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:19.279 against right handed pitching. And look, I don't know when 379 00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:21.680 his first day is going to be at third base. 380 00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:24.920 That plan may change between now and the time that 381 00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:28.160 it happens. But today was the first day that Tommy 382 00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:31.160 Edmund took ground balls at third base, and he wasn't 383 00:17:31.240 --> 00:17:34.480 just taking the normal easy grounders. He was having Pete 384 00:17:34.640 --> 00:17:38.200 Montero hit him some choppers, some in between balls, and 385 00:17:38.200 --> 00:17:40.920 he told me today those are the ones that he 386 00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:43.839 has to get used to. And he hasn't flinched. When 387 00:17:43.880 --> 00:17:46.039 I was talking to him after he was done today, 388 00:17:46.519 --> 00:17:49.720 he didn't flinch about playing there. He's pretty confident he 389 00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:50.400 can handle it. 390 00:17:50.680 --> 00:17:52.440 David is brought to by the twenty twenty five for 391 00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:55.160 f one to fifty from California's best selling truck Brant. 392 00:17:55.319 --> 00:17:57.759 It's time to see Ford in a new light forward 393 00:17:58.079 --> 00:18:02.920 for America from a Mayria. Ben Casparius gets the start tonight, David, 394 00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:06.440 is this a legitimate start or is he an opener? 395 00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:07.119 What's the plan? 396 00:18:08.319 --> 00:18:10.680 Last night after the game, Dave Roberts said, there's no 397 00:18:10.799 --> 00:18:13.359 pitch limit. They're gonna just read and react. But you 398 00:18:13.519 --> 00:18:16.960 have to imagine there are certain limits on how many 399 00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:20.160 pitches he'll be able to throw, because I know he's 400 00:18:20.200 --> 00:18:23.799 come in to throw bulk innings after Otani, but I 401 00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:27.240
