3
00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:09.759
<v Speaker 1>pitch with his best buddy, Matt Kemp, the one and

4
00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:12.439
<v Speaker 1>only Prince of the Desert, a man that spent his

5
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:16.480
<v Speaker 1>entire twelve year Major League career with the Dodgers, the

6
00:00:16.559 --> 00:00:18.280
<v Speaker 1>one and only Andre Ethier.

7
00:00:18.679 --> 00:00:20.679

<v Speaker 3>Here, What a day.

10
00:00:22.399 --> 00:00:26.320
<v Speaker 4>You're right, that was unbelievable last night. I think two

11
00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:28.000
<v Speaker 4>words coming up, wow and incredible.

12
00:00:29.440 --> 00:00:29.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't think you.

13
00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:33.439
<v Speaker 4>Could ask for a better start to this series. You know,

14
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:35.359
<v Speaker 4>I think you get I think you get nervous, and

15
00:00:35.359 --> 00:00:39.000
<v Speaker 4>I think you get fearful that there's so much lead up,

16
00:00:39.560 --> 00:00:41.320
<v Speaker 4>especially in the you know amount of time that was

17
00:00:41.359 --> 00:00:45.280
<v Speaker 4>between the you know, the lcs's and the World Series

18
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:49.799
<v Speaker 4>and Yankees Dodgers, you know battle the of the two

19
00:00:49.799 --> 00:00:51.039
<v Speaker 4>big teams.

20
00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:53.359
<v Speaker 3>And last night lived up to it, you know, to

21
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:55.600
<v Speaker 3>the full extent. And that was Uh. I think anything

22
00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:56.240
<v Speaker 3>you could ask for.

23
00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:57.799
<v Speaker 4>And I know I was on the edge of my

24
00:00:57.840 --> 00:00:59.840
<v Speaker 4>seat last night on the couch watching him the whole thing.

25
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:02.320
<v Speaker 4>Couldn't believe Yes we have this, No, we don't have this.

26
00:01:02.679 --> 00:01:04.640
<v Speaker 4>Oh crap, what happens if we go down oh one,

27
00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:07.239
<v Speaker 4>you know all the scenarios and then sure enough Freddy

28
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:10.640
<v Speaker 4>walks up there, they hit once winging one bitch uh

29
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:11.159
<v Speaker 4>one a night.

30
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:13.560
<v Speaker 2>So you're as invested as all of us.

31
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:18.040
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, one hundred percent invested. Uh you know, I'm

32
00:01:18.879 --> 00:01:21.599
<v Speaker 4>you know, all in. I love this team, I love

33
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:22.280
<v Speaker 4>this organization.

34
00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:23.439
<v Speaker 3>I wanted to have, you know.

35
00:01:24.239 --> 00:01:27.239
<v Speaker 4>The most amount of success they could have. But yeah,

36
00:01:27.239 --> 00:01:29.680
<v Speaker 4>when we were getting series and games like this, I'm

37
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:32.519
<v Speaker 4>I'm all for it. I'm sitting there yelling and screaming,

38
00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:35.280
<v Speaker 4>probably doing the same reactions that everyone's doing at home,

39
00:01:35.319 --> 00:01:37.000
<v Speaker 4>at the same reactions everyone's doing to the stadium.

40
00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:38.959
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, it's fun to be here.

41
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:41.599
<v Speaker 4>That's why I'm here today and uh here enjoying World

42
00:01:41.640 --> 00:01:42.760
<v Speaker 4>Series Baseball back in.

43
00:01:43.239 --> 00:01:46.439
<v Speaker 5>LA what right rightfully belongs or rightfully should be andre

44
00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:50.040
<v Speaker 5>it seemed like everybody was happy for Freddie Freeman because

45
00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:53.000
<v Speaker 5>I know, if you've talked about this, the game rewards you,

46
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:55.200
<v Speaker 5>and it seems like he's put in a lot to

47
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:57.319
<v Speaker 5>this game, and it felt like the game rewarded him

48
00:01:57.400 --> 00:01:59.200
<v Speaker 5>last night for sure, one hundred percent.

49
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:01.439
<v Speaker 4>Uh you know, he's been a guy who's been so

50
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:05.480
<v Speaker 4>stable over the courses whole you know, career. I think

51
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:07.200
<v Speaker 4>I saw that stat they pulled up last night, all

52
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:09.199
<v Speaker 4>his what he's first and second in and the.

53
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:10.719
<v Speaker 3>Last like I don't know, he was at five six

54
00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:15.360
<v Speaker 3>seven years or something like hits RBIs you know all

55
00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:15.879
<v Speaker 3>that stuff.

56
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:18.360
<v Speaker 4>I mean, it's it's unbelievable to see the resumes put

57
00:02:18.360 --> 00:02:20.120
<v Speaker 4>together and he's quite and let's.

58
00:02:19.879 --> 00:02:22.039
<v Speaker 3>Really be really, he's quietly done it. Everyone knows who

59
00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:22.719
<v Speaker 3>Freddie Freeman is.

60
00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:24.960
<v Speaker 4>Everyone can give his acolades, but you don't realize the

61
00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:28.280
<v Speaker 4>level of success he's had, not only the level of success.

62
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:30.639
<v Speaker 3>The elite level of success he's had.

63
00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:33.159
<v Speaker 4>Because you look at those numbers right there, he's first,

64
00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:36.639
<v Speaker 4>not not tenth, not eleventh, not even thirtieth. He's first

65
00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:40.400
<v Speaker 4>and second in all of those categories. And you know

66
00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:42.439
<v Speaker 4>it's that that's what makes this line up tough, right

67
00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:45.599
<v Speaker 4>like you you had a Atani, let's walk.

68
00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:47.439
<v Speaker 3>Bets uh deep breath.

69
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:49.520
<v Speaker 4>After we got those, you know, we got Otani out,

70
00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:52.159
<v Speaker 4>we get we put bets on, and then we have

71
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:54.520
<v Speaker 4>Freddy coming up, who's we knows, hobbled, who's.

72
00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:55.159
<v Speaker 3>Always been struggling.

73
00:02:55.439 --> 00:03:00.479
<v Speaker 4>And I guess a wounded a wounded animal, wounded creatures.

74
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:01.960
<v Speaker 4>There's some of the you know, some of the most

75
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:04.039
<v Speaker 4>dangerous and Freddie definitely showed it last night.

76
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:06.759
<v Speaker 1>The great part about this is now there's a new

77
00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:10.080
<v Speaker 1>highlight to show instead of just Kurt Gibson's.

78
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:11.919
<v Speaker 4>I tell you how many times I've seen that give

79
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:14.639
<v Speaker 4>me a highlight, you know, all those years, you know,

80
00:03:14.759 --> 00:03:17.919
<v Speaker 4>lady and games eight ninth inning come back, you know

81
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:20.199
<v Speaker 4>in place during the regular season and that Gibby the

82
00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:24.039
<v Speaker 4>highlight comes on, and that will always hold a place

83
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:27.159
<v Speaker 4>where I like, you know, with Vinnie and and you

84
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:31.039
<v Speaker 4>know calling that you know, that shot and gave me

85
00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:32.439
<v Speaker 4>what it meant to the city back.

86
00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:33.039
<v Speaker 3>Then in eighty eight.

87
00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:36.599
<v Speaker 4>And rightfully so though for this new next generation, and

88
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:40.159
<v Speaker 4>I think it's perfect for you know what's going on

89
00:03:40.199 --> 00:03:40.800
<v Speaker 4>here with.

90
00:03:41.199 --> 00:03:42.319
<v Speaker 3>First time in forty three years.

91
00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:45.919
<v Speaker 4>It's this generational series matchup again, and so why not

92
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:48.960
<v Speaker 4>have a generational moment for this next generation of Dodger

93
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:52.000
<v Speaker 4>fans to see and have something that they've witnessed themselves

94
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:55.879
<v Speaker 4>and seem we And the only way to really solidify

95
00:03:55.919 --> 00:03:57.719
<v Speaker 4>that and capitalize on it is that has to be

96
00:03:58.639 --> 00:03:59.599
<v Speaker 4>a World series victory.

97
00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:01.319
<v Speaker 3>And I think that's what was special about that give

98
00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:02.439
<v Speaker 3>you moment How.

99
00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:05.199
<v Speaker 1>Much momentum does it give the Dodgers after winning a

100
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:06.319
<v Speaker 1>game like last night?

101
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:09.039
<v Speaker 3>Well, I said this to a couple.

102
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:11.120
<v Speaker 4>I had a couple buddies of mine who were on

103
00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:13.919
<v Speaker 4>the flight with me today that happened to be Yankees fans,

104
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:16.879
<v Speaker 4>and I said, They're like, well, Booty looks awful. After that,

105
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:19.279
<v Speaker 4>I go, well, Dave would have looked awful too. If so,

106
00:04:19.360 --> 00:04:22.040
<v Speaker 4>whoever lost that game? As a manager, you look bad, right,

107
00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:26.480
<v Speaker 4>There's opportunities for you to maybe done something different, but

108
00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:29.920
<v Speaker 4>you can't second get show off those things. You know,

109
00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:33.399
<v Speaker 4>does Dave pull Jack a little early from you know?

110
00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:36.560
<v Speaker 4>From that at that who knows? Does you know Boonty

111
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:37.759
<v Speaker 4>make a different move right there?

112
00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:38.920
<v Speaker 3>You never know.

113
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:42.560
<v Speaker 4>I just think it's a real testament to the quality

114
00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:45.759
<v Speaker 4>of both players on each field. And when you have

115
00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:48.759
<v Speaker 4>that home field advantage, that's what happens in these series.

116
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:51.040
<v Speaker 4>You're able to capitalize on it. The Dodgers did last night.

117
00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:52.439
<v Speaker 2>He's a man in demand.

118
00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:55.959
<v Speaker 1>Andre Ethier at Dodgers Stay in before Game two of

119
00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:58.800
<v Speaker 1>the World Series, He's throwing out the first pitch with

120
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:00.519
<v Speaker 1>his old teammate Matt Camp.

121
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:02.199
<v Speaker 2>What's it like to be back.

122
00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:04.639
<v Speaker 1>With Matt in this setting, to be able to be

123
00:05:04.759 --> 00:05:08.079
<v Speaker 1>brought back together as two of the more popular players

124
00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:09.920
<v Speaker 1>in the last twenty five years.

125
00:05:10.319 --> 00:05:11.399
<v Speaker 3>Uh, it's it's a big honor.

126
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:14.000
<v Speaker 4>It's it's it's uh, it's unbelievable to be uh given

127
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:16.040
<v Speaker 4>this honor of doing this for a game two of

128
00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:18.560
<v Speaker 4>the World Series, and you know, not just a regular

129
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:20.800
<v Speaker 4>season game, not just a playoff game, a World Series,

130
00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:22.959
<v Speaker 4>the first one that's been back in what is it

131
00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:23.639
<v Speaker 4>eight years now?

132
00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:27.000
<v Speaker 3>Uh, And uh, you know, it's unbelievable to be a

133
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:29.279
<v Speaker 3>part of it, you know.

134
00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:33.720
<v Speaker 4>I know, uh, the fans, everyone uh is looking forward

135
00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:35.160
<v Speaker 4>to it, and you know, and going back to what

136
00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:38.319
<v Speaker 4>we just previous said, you know, it's it's just it's generational,

137
00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:41.000
<v Speaker 4>and you know, I have these guys at all these playoffs,

138
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:43.279
<v Speaker 4>you know, the older players come back throw those first pitches,

139
00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:45.040
<v Speaker 4>and it's kind of weird to be standing here, being

140
00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:47.279
<v Speaker 4>in that position now and being a part of it

141
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:47.600
<v Speaker 4>that way.

142
00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, the good news here, are still at your playing weight.

143
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:53.680
<v Speaker 4>Uh yeah, I'm still my playing with somewhat uh probably

144
00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:54.560
<v Speaker 4>even a little bit down.

145
00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:56.759
<v Speaker 3>I don't have to look weights as much. Anymore.

146
00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:59.040
<v Speaker 4>So, I'm actually a few pounds at lighter than I

147
00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:00.879
<v Speaker 4>was when I played. And and uh, you know that's

148
00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:03.079
<v Speaker 4>always a tough thing to do, uh not to get

149
00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:05.000
<v Speaker 4>that uh that dad gut.

150
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:05.480
<v Speaker 3>Like you're sporting.

151
00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:08.480
<v Speaker 2>There no dad bots in, so I just leaned all

152
00:06:08.519 --> 00:06:09.199
<v Speaker 2>the way into it.

153
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:10.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you're leading in hard.
