It's 2 00:00:03.919 --> 00:00:04.799 David Vasse. 3 00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:11.400 We are live at Wrigley Field in Chicago for Morongo 4 00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:16.120 Casino Dodgers on Deck and Dodgers Cubs closing out their 5 00:00:16.199 --> 00:00:20.640 regular season series today. Your world champion Los Angeles Dodgers 6 00:00:20.679 --> 00:00:23.399 are now sixteen and eight on the season after taking 7 00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:25.879 two out of three on this road trip in Texas. 8 00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:29.039 The Dodgers let one get away last night here in 9 00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:32.240 the series opener against the Cubs, as they fell in 10 00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:36.079 ten innings, eleven to ten. Tonight, they look to get 11 00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:39.039 the series split in their final meeting of the season 12 00:00:39.039 --> 00:00:42.560 against the Cubs with a bullpen game. Ben Casparraus will 13 00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:45.640 start the game for the Dodgers. First pitch here at 14 00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:48.840 Wrigley Field, coming up at four o'clock. Over the next 15 00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:51.840 hour here on Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, you'll hear 16 00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:55.119 from Tommy Edmund last night, Dino Ebel will join us 17 00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:58.119 for our one on one, high and Tight segment, and 18 00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:01.240 also we'll give you an updating and you'll hear from 19 00:01:01.320 --> 00:01:04.359 Dodger catcher Will Smith on why he is not in 20 00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:08.040 the starting lineup tonight. So Austin Barnes behind the plate 21 00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:11.400 for the Dodgers tonight. Miguel Rojas gets the start at 22 00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:15.400 third base against the lefty Matthew Boyd. Yesterday here at 23 00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:18.799 Wrigley Field, it was a seesaw game that had a 24 00:01:18.879 --> 00:01:23.280 combined twenty one runs and twenty six hits, including five 25 00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:27.040 home runs. Eight runs were scored in the first inning 26 00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:31.439 by these teams alone. Tommy Edmund got things going in 27 00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:34.599 the top of the first inning, flexing again. 28 00:01:35.079 --> 00:01:36.840 At the play, batting from the right side, the switch 29 00:01:36.879 --> 00:01:39.439 shooter's witting on the Cub south ball, who looks at 30 00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:42.519 Otani on second then comes home and emmn hits a 31 00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:43.599 drive centerfield. 32 00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:45.000 Indeed, Crow Armshtrown. 33 00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.120 Going back, he's at the hall. HiT's gone. 34 00:01:48.959 --> 00:01:50.120 Tommy Edman. 35 00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:54.120 Continues to kill the Cubs. 36 00:01:54.480 --> 00:01:57.239 A three run bomb in the first inning, his eighth 37 00:01:57.239 --> 00:01:59.760 of the year, and the Dodgers strike first. 38 00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:05.000 Oh yeah, Tommy Edmond saw a lot of the Cubs 39 00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:08.080 when he was playing for the Cardinals, and they don't 40 00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:11.240 want to see him anymore because whatever he was doing 41 00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:13.919 with the Cardinals. He continued against the Cubs, wearing a 42 00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:18.360 Dodger uniform as he is ops lifetime against the Cubs 43 00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:21.680 is nine hundred That was Tommy Edmund's eighth home run 44 00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:22.120 of the year. 45 00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:22.919 It was his. 46 00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:26.479 Fifth home run this month, the most home runs Edmond 47 00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:27.879 has it in a single month. 48 00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:30.400 This game really went back and forth. 49 00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:32.879 The Cubs took a seven to five lead into the 50 00:02:32.919 --> 00:02:37.240 seventh inning, but bad Cubs defense and a shaky relief 51 00:02:37.319 --> 00:02:41.199 pitcher in Brad Keller couldn't hold it. In the seventh inning, 52 00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:44.000 Freddie Freeman delivered to give the Dodgers the lead. 53 00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:46.879 He thought he had the ball, he touched the bag, 54 00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:47.879 reached into the glove. 55 00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:48.719 No ball. 56 00:02:48.919 --> 00:02:50.080 The pitch to Freddy Freeman. 57 00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:54.199 Freddy t today, HiT's down. It gets to the corner. Oh, 58 00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:58.639 Tony scores. Beer comes Betts and the Dodgers are in front. 59 00:02:59.159 --> 00:03:01.560 Freddie slide safe to second base. 60 00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:04.560 They take it a seven lead. 61 00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:09.960 That was a five run seventh inning for the Dodgers 62 00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:13.120 to take the lead, but momentum started to swing back 63 00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:16.400 to the home team as Kyle Tucker hit a two 64 00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:19.560 run home run off of Alex Vesia in the eighth inning, 65 00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:23.680 and obviously the biggest one. Miguela Maya, who was hitting 66 00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:26.919 eighth and had only one home run this year, hit 67 00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:29.759 the second pitch he saw from Tanner Scott with two 68 00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:31.919 outs for a game tying home run. 69 00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:33.439 The Cubs would walk it. 70 00:03:33.439 --> 00:03:36.479 Off on a base hit by Ian Hapoff of Noah Davis, 71 00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:40.360 eleven to ten in ten innings. Like we mentioned, with 72 00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:43.439 the loss, the Dodgers fall to sixteen and eight. Tonight, 73 00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:45.879 they looked to get the series split at Wrigley Field. 74 00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:48.840 For our first look with Rick Monday and Steven Nelson. 75 00:03:49.159 --> 00:03:51.120 Let's check in with the guys here in the Galpin 76 00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:53.159 Mothers Booth at Wrigley Field. 77 00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:55.759 All right, DV, it is a beautiful day in front 78 00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:58.080 of us here at Wrigley Field. It was an ugly 79 00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:00.439 finish last night, Mo. That was probable one of the 80 00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:02.840 more frustrating losses of the season. And he looked back 81 00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:05.719 at the last three games. The Dodgers have been walked 82 00:04:05.759 --> 00:04:06.800 off twice. 83 00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:09.280 And they've given up a lot of runs and too 84 00:04:09.319 --> 00:04:13.280 many opportunities. Quite frankly, you know, nineteen at bats last 85 00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:15.759 night for the Chicago Cums, the turners in scoring position, 86 00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:17.800 and it's one of those games that gets away from you. 87 00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:20.759 I mean, Tommy Edmon comes through again last night in 88 00:04:20.839 --> 00:04:23.439 the very first ending a three run home run. Dodgers 89 00:04:23.480 --> 00:04:25.399 have a quick three to nothing lead, only to turn 90 00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:28.399 around and see the Cubs come up with five runs 91 00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:31.560 on six hits against Dustin May, who really kind of 92 00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:34.920 struggled last night with ninety five pitches over five innings 93 00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:37.920 and he ran into a bus on that first inning, 94 00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:39.959 and the second ending did not start off very well. 95 00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:42.120 Then he had back to back strikeouts. Got out of 96 00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:45.399 it with the ground bowl, but not a particularly great 97 00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:50.040 performance by Dustin May. And another heavy workload Stephen by 98 00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:52.720 the bullpen again last night, which the bullpen now has 99 00:04:52.759 --> 00:04:55.560 gone over one hundred innings of work already. 100 00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:58.000 It's going to get more work today, Mo, because it 101 00:04:58.079 --> 00:04:59.160 is a bullpen effort. 102 00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:00.000 I am curious. 103 00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:03.639 So just to get back to last night, obviously like 104 00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:06.600 a really tough finish, It just, you know, one of 105 00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:08.680 those things that you say it can't happen, but obviously 106 00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:11.480 it does happen in this game of baseball. And to 107 00:05:11.560 --> 00:05:16.639 have it happen twice in a three game stretch, especially 108 00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:18.399 when you put up ten runs in a game you're 109 00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:22.519 supposed to win, that like those ones are would they 110 00:05:22.519 --> 00:05:25.920 would seem from an outsider's perspective, a non player perspective, 111 00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:27.360 the tougher ones to get over. 112 00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:28.639 And for the comes. 113 00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:31.079 That's the seventh time that they have won a ball 114 00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:34.800 games scoring ten runs or more already. There is one 115 00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:37.319 offshoot from last night's ball game. There was a tag 116 00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:39.439 play at home plate. The doves are able to throw 117 00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:42.600 out the runner and that was Ian Half. But on 118 00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:46.399 that play, Will Smith evidently tweaked the left wrist. He 119 00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:49.240 was originally into night's lineup. Then we got word about 120 00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:51.079 an hour and a half two hours later, no, he 121 00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:53.199 is not in the lineup. So Austin Barnes will do 122 00:05:53.279 --> 00:05:55.839 the catching. They say it's nothing to worry about with 123 00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:58.519 Will Smith off day tomorrow and they expect him to 124 00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:00.639 be in the lineup begin Friday night at Dodger Stadium. 125 00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:02.399 Oh you look at what's on tap for the Dodgers. 126 00:06:02.399 --> 00:06:05.160 You mentioned the off day on Thursday, and then once 127 00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:07.720 the homestand begins, it kicks off a stretch of twelve 128 00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:12.639 consecutive games against teams with losing records. That sounds appetizing 129 00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:14.720 to the Dodgers and the fans listening, but the fact 130 00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:17.120 is the Cubs of the type of team that the 131 00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:20.319 Dodgers hope to see again in the fall. That's a really, 132 00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:22.399 really good team, and so It's important to end this 133 00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:25.240 with a w get back on the happy flight before 134 00:06:26.079 --> 00:06:29.639 reopening play at Dodgers Stadium this weekend. All right, DV, 135 00:06:29.879 --> 00:06:30.759 we'll get it back to you. 136 00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:33.199 All right, Steven.

He 156 00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:48.399 was zero for four last night with three strikeouts. He's 157 00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:51.199 not seen the ball really well. When he's a double 158 00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:54.879 taking at pitches that are called strikes, you know he's 159 00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:57.560 not in sync at the plate. The Dodgers lost in 160 00:07:57.639 --> 00:08:00.399 ten innings last night, as we mentioned, eleven to ten 161 00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:04.560 in ten innings.

I think that's amazing. Anything 196 00:09:31.960 --> 00:09:34.440 can happen here, which we literally saw last night with 197 00:09:34.480 --> 00:09:36.759 how the game was played. But I think that's the 198 00:09:36.759 --> 00:09:38.759 biggest thing for like, you never know what's going to 199 00:09:38.799 --> 00:09:41.200 happen at Wrigley Field, and I think that kind of 200 00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:43.840 adds to the excitement of this game, but also to 201 00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:46.279 like the element of surprise when you're here. So I 202 00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:49.559 think we're in for another treat tonight. But hopefully the 203 00:09:49.639 --> 00:09:52.000 wind doesn't want to be like on our bad side today, 204 00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:54.200 because it definitely felt like a few of those swings 205 00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:55.600 probably should have gone out of here. 206 00:09:55.759 --> 00:09:59.120 Yeah, it feels like the conditions are definitely conducive to 207 00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:03.120 offense tonight. Here's something for you being a sideline reporter, 208 00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:06.080 being that close to the action. There have been some 209 00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:09.759 that been struck by foul balls. Have you ever come close? 210 00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:10.039 Do you? 211 00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:11.759 How much do you have to be on your toes. 212 00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:13.320 You definitely have to keep your eye of the ball 213 00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:16.200 at all times. I was hit by a foul ball 214 00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:17.399 once in Miami. 215 00:10:17.519 --> 00:10:18.799 Actually, oh yeah. 216 00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:22.279 And what happened was is so there where the reporter sits, 217 00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:24.960 you're kind of you're right next to the dugout and 218 00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:27.879 essentially the guys can be on the stairs right there. 219 00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:31.000 There's no netting. And I told them, I was like, hey, listen, like, 220 00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:34.480 y'all can stand there. It's totally fine, but just either 221 00:10:34.679 --> 00:10:35.519 like give me. 222 00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:36.039 A heads up. 223 00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:38.080 You can't just like duck if the ball comes this way. 224 00:10:38.080 --> 00:10:40.320 And they're like, yeah, yeah, we got you. And the 225 00:10:40.360 --> 00:10:42.960 ball came in and they ducked so to be fair 226 00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:44.879 on my arm, which I'm pretty sure I still have 227 00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:47.200 internal bruising. So whenever they do get hit by a ball, 228 00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:51.080 like they're not being dramatic, it really hurts, like extremely, 229 00:10:51.120 --> 00:10:54.480 it hurts very badly. And honestly, how they're able to 230 00:10:54.600 --> 00:10:58.159 just like get back to it is remarkable of just 231 00:10:58.799 --> 00:11:02.559 whether it's pain tolerant, whether it's just commitment to the game, 232 00:11:02.600 --> 00:11:04.200 you name it, like how they're able, whether it's in 233 00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:07.480 the boxings like that, Like they're very impressive athletes out there. 234 00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:10.120 All right, be safe tonight, Kirsten. We're thinking about you. 235 00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:11.600 I do have netting here, so I'll be all right. 236 00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:13.679 All right, good, great to see you. We'll see you 237 00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:14.320 back in La. 238 00:11:14.519 --> 00:11:15.559 See you back in La. 239 00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:18.360 There she is, Kirsten Watson and still here to come 240 00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:21.720 on Marongo Casino. Dodgers on deck. We'll preview tonight's pitching 241 00:11:21.759 --> 00:11:24.480 matchup with the Dodgers. Going with the bullpen game. I'll 242 00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:27.799 go one on one with Dodger third base coach Dino Ebel, 243 00:11:27.919 --> 00:11:30.600 and we also have the latest Dodger injury report, So 244 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:33.440 a lot to get to between now and first pitch 245 00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:36.679 coming up at four o'clock right here on the World. 246 00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:38.320 Champion Dodgers Audio Network. 247 00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:47.000 Well, this is Marongo Casino Dodgers Hunting on your home 248 00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:49.000 for LA Dodgers Baseball. 249 00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:55.279 David Bassey live at Wrigley Field in Chicago for the 250 00:11:55.279 --> 00:11:59.600 final regular season meeting between the Dodgers and Cubs. Marongo 251 00:11:59.639 --> 00:12:03.399 Casino Resort and spa a Grand Slam for good times. 252 00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:06.039 First pitch is coming up at four o'clock. 253 00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:11.240 He's the LA Dodgers Injury. 254 00:12:10.879 --> 00:12:16.120 Report Dodger Injury Report presented by UCLA Health, the official 255 00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:20.159 official medical partner of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Well, we 256 00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:22.879 were all wondering why Will Smith was not in the 257 00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:26.639 starting lineup today, considering the Dodgers have a day off tomorrow. 258 00:12:27.080 --> 00:12:27.759 We found out. 259 00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:30.440 I spoke to Will Smith in the clubhouse and he 260 00:12:30.559 --> 00:12:34.840 explained that tagging out Ian Hap at the plate in 261 00:12:34.919 --> 00:12:37.480 the sixth inning last night caused him to bend his 262 00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:41.480 left wrist awkwardly, and when he woke up this morning 263 00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:44.559 it was sore. So here's what the Dodger catcher told 264 00:12:44.600 --> 00:12:47.919 me about where the wrist is at and just why 265 00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:49.200 he's not playing tonight. 266 00:12:49.440 --> 00:12:51.240 Banged my wrist up a little bit last night, so 267 00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:55.600 that's it. The tag lay home just kind of I 268 00:12:55.600 --> 00:12:57.159 don't know what it did, but yeah, it doesn't feel 269 00:12:57.200 --> 00:13:00.600 great today. So he's being smart about it. Yeah, just 270 00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:03.679 you know, hard play, hard contact, slide, hard tag and 271 00:13:03.799 --> 00:13:06.679 just you know, bugged it and just woke up not 272 00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:09.519 feeling not feeling great. But I don't know, I'm not 273 00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:11.879 too worried about it. I think nothing's broken right now. 274 00:13:11.919 --> 00:13:14.840 I think so it's just so tight and just just 275 00:13:14.840 --> 00:13:16.879 starting to get it two days instead of pushing you 276 00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:20.679 today and then, you know, prolonging something that doesn't even be. 277 00:13:20.679 --> 00:13:21.159 Prolonged to. 278 00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:25.200 Hey, the life of a catcher is not as easy 279 00:13:25.320 --> 00:13:27.799 as it looks. Will Smith one of the best, if 280 00:13:27.840 --> 00:13:31.559 not the best, hitting catcher in baseball this year. Certainly 281 00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:34.080 it has been big for the Dodgers lineup. So no 282 00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:37.960 Will Smith tonight. Austin Barnes is in the starting lineup 283 00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:41.679 catching the bullpen game for the Dodgers. Let's go downstairs 284 00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:44.480 right now to hear from the manager Dave Roberts. 285 00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:49.759 Any question for Dave, Dave, can you just describe Dave? 286 00:13:49.799 --> 00:13:52.240 Can you talk about the pressure in. 287 00:13:52.279 --> 00:13:54.480 The dugouts with Dave Roberts. 288 00:13:55.320 --> 00:13:58.039 We do, we do. I feel good about the arms. 289 00:13:58.080 --> 00:14:01.720 We're going to run out tonight to prevent runs. Obviously, 290 00:14:01.960 --> 00:14:05.720 Ben's going to start. Ben a starter before, nothing new 291 00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:10.240 to him, hopefully hoping to get you know, two out 292 00:14:10.240 --> 00:14:12.480 of him, maybe get into third inning and then we'll 293 00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:15.360 sort of go from there. But all hands on deck tonight. 294 00:14:15.519 --> 00:14:16.480 We've talked about in the past. 295 00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:18.480 Now, No, Davis is a player who's built out. 296 00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:19.360 We obviously saw him. 297 00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:21.039 He's the one page last night. 298 00:14:21.159 --> 00:14:23.000 See someone that would be available to. 299 00:14:22.919 --> 00:14:23.879 Get back out there today. 300 00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:27.840 Yeah, yeah, No, he's on the roster. He'll be available 301 00:14:27.919 --> 00:14:31.399 with whatever we need. And you know, he threw a 302 00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:34.480 strike and Ian hit it in the hole and they 303 00:14:34.519 --> 00:14:37.879 won a ballgame. But it's good to have him on 304 00:14:37.960 --> 00:14:40.679 the roster and we'll see if he gets in there tonight. 305 00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:44.879 All right, there's manager Dave Roberts explaining kind of the 306 00:14:44.960 --> 00:14:48.720 plans for the bullpen game. Noah Davis has been kind 307 00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:52.200 of held out making his Dodger debut. Tough spot last night, 308 00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:55.639 and Davis certainly will be in the mix in tonight's 309 00:14:55.639 --> 00:14:59.559 bullpen game. When we continue from Wrigley Field inside the 310 00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:02.960 Moroco Casino Dodgers on Deck Show, you'll hear from the 311 00:15:03.000 --> 00:15:07.399 Cubs killer himself, Tommy Edmund, as the Dodgers and Cubs 312 00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:10.799 get set for first pitch today at four o'clock.

But yeah, the balls 338 00:16:34.440 --> 00:16:36.039 just carry a little bit farther than you might expecting 339 00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:36.639 to have a. 340 00:16:36.639 --> 00:16:37.919 Lot of success against this team. 341 00:16:37.919 --> 00:16:39.639 What were you saying from the show to especially early 342 00:16:39.679 --> 00:16:44.440 in the game with that at bet. 343 00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:44.840 You know, there's he's a does a good job of 344 00:16:44.879 --> 00:16:47.159 keeping you off balance.
