Plaque was hung along the club level down 28 00:01:27.359 --> 00:01:29.920 the first base line, next to the other ones. 29 00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:31.799 Of course, once the game started. 30 00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:33.959 It was the debut of Blake Snell, the Two Times 31 00:01:33.959 --> 00:01:36.519 Saw Young Award winner when five innings allowed two runs 32 00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:38.680 on five hits while striking out two along the way. 33 00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:42.040 The Dodgers offense gave Snell the run support he needed. 34 00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:45.840 It started in the second with Tommy Edmund and the. 35 00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:50.079 World champion doger right a fly ball the left field, 36 00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:51.719 I'm deep, pulk up. 37 00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:56.120 Out a keep component a home line, come in. 38 00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:03.400 He's really show solo home run for Tommy Tanks and 39 00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:05.400 the Dodgers grabbed the one nothing lead and remained that 40 00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:07.640 way until the fourth When the Tigers got on the board, 41 00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:10.159 Blake Snell a wild pitch, Spencer Torkleson scored and the 42 00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:12.520 game was tied at one.

Manuel mark Go sack fly gave 45 00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:20.000 the Tigers a two to one lead and the bottom 46 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:22.319 of the fifth, though the Dodgers got after Trek schoogl 47 00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:24.639 Andy Pie has a one out single. Two batters later, 48 00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:27.439 Mookie Betts drew a two out walk. Next batter Tay 49 00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:29.960 Oscar and it is the Oscar oh. 50 00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:35.439 For two high ball setter. Two run back to the 51 00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:41.599 wall and it is on a home run the Oscar 52 00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:43.400 her name is a pre run. 53 00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:46.680 Home run over the wall and squared away center. 54 00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:51.199 And then the Dodgers, as we're. 55 00:02:51.199 --> 00:02:54.319 Taking the lead, Hey, three run home run for ta Oscar, 56 00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:57.240 his first of the year, Dodger standing and that's the 57 00:02:57.240 --> 00:02:59.400 top tier play the game, brought to by Arco quality, 58 00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:01.479 top tier game for less. Dodgers up four to two, 59 00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:03.680 Blake's Nell with them five innings, turned it over to 60 00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:06.520 the bullpen Ben Casparius to shut out inning.

On ring night, 70 00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:30.080 Yoshi Yamamoto on the mountain with more. We head out 71 00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:32.400 to the Gallopit Motors broadcast booth as we say hello 72 00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:33.240 to Steven. 73 00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:34.479 Nelson and Rick Monday. 74 00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:37.439 Guys, All right, Tim, We're getting ready for another special 75 00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:40.800 evening here at Dodgers Stadium. This home opening series against 76 00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:43.479 the Tigers got off to a wonderful start, of course, 77 00:03:43.520 --> 00:03:46.159 with the win last night helping the Dodgers improved to 78 00:03:46.199 --> 00:03:49.159 three and ozero mo Before that, just the pregame ceremony, 79 00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:53.280 raising that flag in center field, unveiling the plaque in 80 00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:57.560 the stadium club in right field, and opening home opening ceremonies, 81 00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:00.280 and the Flyovers are batting one thousand every year. Those 82 00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:02.400 never get old. And then here to night the Dodgers 83 00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:03.120 get their rings. 84 00:04:03.479 --> 00:04:06.000 Yeah, tonight's a lot of bling. But last night it 85 00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:09.159 was a lot of celebration, and I think the fans 86 00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:11.879 got into it as well. It was like a continuation 87 00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:15.800 of the parade to celebrate the World championship last year. 88 00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:18.439 Is you know, it's one of those special things. The 89 00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:21.279 other part that I really like is at once the 90 00:04:21.319 --> 00:04:25.240 field was cleared, the defending world champions took care of 91 00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:28.160 business and it wasn't like, well, let's just rest back. 92 00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:30.079 It haven't been julip and we'll kind of rest on 93 00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:32.680 our laurels and we'll have it. That was not the case. 94 00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:34.879 And I think that was from day one the message 95 00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:37.920 that Dave Roberts had. Now Roberts delivered that message, but 96 00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:39.920 the message is already there. But the way the guys 97 00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:43.040 came in to spring training because they know exactly what 98 00:04:43.160 --> 00:04:46.040 lies ahead. They have seen other teams that win World 99 00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:48.920 Series and they come in as a World champion and 100 00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:51.439 you look at them and you understand. I looked at 101 00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:54.879 the Tigers dugout last night observing what the Dodgers are 102 00:04:54.879 --> 00:04:58.519 doing in celebration. That's an oncoming team with the young 103 00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:00.920 players over there with the Tigers, I would imagine that 104 00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:04.439 was motivation for them to understand what it's about to 105 00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:06.120 really accomplish something as a team. 106 00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:08.439 And at the end of the day too, mo I mean, look, look, 107 00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:11.480 it wasn't perfect. Blake Snow wasn't his sharpest. The bullpen 108 00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:16.519 certainly was not sharp. But that's Trek scooball, you could argue, 109 00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:18.879 is the best pitcher in baseball right now. You know, 110 00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:21.399 you can flip a coin him in Paul's schemes. But 111 00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:25.439 to beat him on a day like that when their 112 00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:28.120 team they're coming off hungry, and to your point, you know, 113 00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:30.560 kind of wanted to put a damper on the celebration. 114 00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:32.560 I thought that said a lot about this team and 115 00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:33.279 their mindset. 116 00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:35.319 Yeah, and to get two home runs off with school, 117 00:05:35.439 --> 00:05:36.839 the way that he could throw the baseball at the 118 00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:38.839 top of it was really kind of something. And if 119 00:05:38.839 --> 00:05:41.560 we look quite frankly you mentioned the pitching, how about 120 00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:45.920 this from the pitching standpoint, because last night the Tigers 121 00:05:45.959 --> 00:05:48.759 had all kinds of chances. They had fifteen different at 122 00:05:48.759 --> 00:05:50.920 bats with runners in scoring position, they did not have 123 00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:53.600 one hit. The Dodgers went to ball game five to four. 124 00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:56.399 They were only one for two with runners in scoring position. 125 00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:58.079 Here are the numbers on the pitching. We'll talk more 126 00:05:58.079 --> 00:06:00.160 about it during the ball game. Yeah, but in the 127 00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:02.839 three games, the two in Tokyo against the Cubs and 128 00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:05.759 last night as well, Dodgers for three and zero, they've 129 00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:09.319 held opposing teams two for twenty nine with runners in 130 00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:12.079 scoring positions. So they have really taken care of business 131 00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:14.000 when the game has really been on the line. 132 00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:15.920 Yep, no doubt about it. We're gonna talk about the 133 00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:18.600 great pitching matchup, the fun pitching matchup we have here 134 00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:18.959 at tonight. 135 00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:21.000 Tim we yap at you a little bit later. 136 00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:24.600 Yoshidobiyam Moto his second start of the season, first one 137 00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:27.720 at home, and he's facing a world champ, an old 138 00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:29.079 friend Jack Flaired. 139 00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:31.439 All right, thank you guys, as we call you down 140 00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:32.040 to first pitch. 141 00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:35.160 Dodger fans, get that game day meal on his Shaky's 142 00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:38.319 Pizza Parlor, or are your Shaky's Pizza, Chicken and Mojo's 143 00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:41.240 right now at Shaky's dot Com.

I 192 00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:05.120 mean everyone assumed that it was going to be Day one, 193 00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:08.200 but of course we've talked about they've broken up the 194 00:09:08.399 --> 00:09:12.600 opening weekend, so yesterday was the ceremony for opening day. 195 00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:15.919 Today is the ring ceremony. And from what I'm hearing, 196 00:09:16.200 --> 00:09:17.919 so not everyone has seen the ring, and a lot 197 00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:19.679 of guys have been very adamant they don't want to 198 00:09:19.720 --> 00:09:21.600 see the ring. They just want that surprise moment when 199 00:09:21.600 --> 00:09:24.159 they open up the box. The ones who have seen 200 00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:28.440 the ring, it is ling, bling bling. A lot of diamonds, 201 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:30.120 is what I'm hearing. I'm sure there's gonna be a 202 00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:35.200 lot of sapphires. Everyone loves diamonds. These boys really really 203 00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:37.399 love some diamonds, so I think it's going to be 204 00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:40.440 a special one. Everyone's been talking about what is the 205 00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:43.279 inscription going to be on the ring? There are obviously 206 00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:46.799 some little keywords and slogans from last year, whether it 207 00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:48.960 was something that Keika Mayhem said in a walk off 208 00:09:49.000 --> 00:09:52.559 interview or whether it was not like us obviously, you 209 00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:54.879 know that's been a theme for the team. I'm so 210 00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:56.799 interested to see just kind of how they're going to 211 00:09:56.840 --> 00:10:00.639 commemorate what this ring is, because it's true, is just 212 00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:03.919 that it's a it's representation of the twenty twenty four season. 213 00:10:04.360 --> 00:10:05.639 So everyone's really excited. 214 00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:09.039 We're hearing that maybe it's gonna open up may well, 215 00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:12.159 I don't know, we shall see, but guys are really 216 00:10:12.159 --> 00:10:14.000 excited and they're really excited that they get to just 217 00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:16.320 kind of have this moment to share it with each other, 218 00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:19.279 to close the chapter on twenty twenty four, to commemorate 219 00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:21.919 it with this beautiful ring. And then Dave what I love. 220 00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:24.000 What he said was for the guys who are with 221 00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:26.240 the organization who weren't a part of that twenty twenty 222 00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:29.679 four run, for them, it's a preview of what could be. 223 00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:31.679 So I think it's going to be a special day. 224 00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:34.759 Hey, keyth ca Hernandez is feeling good enough to be 225 00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:35.639 there and get his ring. 226 00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:37.840 He's gonna be here to get his ring. Yes, So 227 00:10:38.600 --> 00:10:41.039 Dave Roberts said, they'll see how he's feeling. Obviously not 228 00:10:41.159 --> 00:10:44.039 in the lineup, they'll see if he's available off the bench. 229 00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:46.440 But he just was very adamant that he did not 230 00:10:46.559 --> 00:10:48.639 want to miss the ring ceremony, and I think that 231 00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:50.480 is completely understandable. 232 00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:51.919 So for him to be a part of it. 233 00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:54.840 Obviously, there are guys who are not with the organization anymore, 234 00:10:54.879 --> 00:10:57.519 so they'll have different ring ceremonies as the year goes on. 235 00:10:57.600 --> 00:11:00.360 Someone like Gavin Lux with the Reds. I'm sure he'll 236 00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:03.600 receive it when the Reds come in town. Jack Flaherty's 237 00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:06.559 actually on the Mounta tonight for the Detroit Tigers. He's 238 00:11:06.559 --> 00:11:09.600 gonna have his ceremony tomorrow, just because obviously with him 239 00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:11.480 pitching today, it would be a little bit tricky to 240 00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:13.879 get him his ring, maybe in the bullpen, but so 241 00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:15.879 it'll be really nice for him to be able to 242 00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:18.919 just kind of bask in that moment for himself and 243 00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:21.519 celebrate the this is us he had with this organization 244 00:11:21.639 --> 00:11:22.120 last year. 245 00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:25.120 It's an exciting night with the ring ceremony about to happen. 246 00:11:25.200 --> 00:11:27.799 Kirsten, we appreciate it.

Injury update dv Evan Phillips, Tony Gonsolan two 356 00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:54.200 guys on the mend here. 357 00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:57.720 Yeah, they were out here earlier today pitching in the 358 00:16:57.759 --> 00:17:03.200 same simulated game, and they're on different timetables here. Tony Gonsolyn, 359 00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:06.279 a starting pitcher that injured his back in the weight 360 00:17:06.400 --> 00:17:08.880 room during spring training, is going to take a little 361 00:17:08.880 --> 00:17:11.400 bit longer, and he would have been the fifth starter 362 00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:15.160 for the Dodgers if not for that injury. Unfortunately he's 363 00:17:15.160 --> 00:17:16.079 in this situation. 364 00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:19.319 Yeah, I was in a really good spot. I felt 365 00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:22.680 like my body was feeling great, the throw felt really good, 366 00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:26.920 it felt really clean executing pitches, and then to have 367 00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:31.799 something like that, not baseball related, it really sucked. Honestly, 368 00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:33.720 I don't really have any other words for it, but 369 00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:37.200 again it's a minor setback, and try to take this 370 00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:39.319 time to build back up and get into an even 371 00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:40.000 better position. 372 00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:41.440 All right. 373 00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:44.319 That was Tony Gonsolin and Evan Phillips, who is a 374 00:17:44.400 --> 00:17:46.799 little bit closer. Remember he was not part of the 375 00:17:46.839 --> 00:17:50.720 Dodgers World Series roster last year with a rotator cuff 376 00:17:50.839 --> 00:17:54.480 muscle torn. Well, he had an MRI in December and 377 00:17:54.519 --> 00:17:56.799 it looks a lot better. And he was out here 378 00:17:57.200 --> 00:18:00.680 throwing a simulated game as well, and told me what 379 00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:01.920 the next steps were. 380 00:18:02.079 --> 00:18:04.200 With these things at all, just one at a time. 381 00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:07.480 I think, as I go through that progression, you know, 382 00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:10.400 one knock out a couple, start working on back to backs, 383 00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:12.880 start working on two out of three's, and you know 384 00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:17.039 one plus things like that, And as I crossed those thresholds, 385 00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:18.960 and we'll have a better idea of when I'll return it. 386 00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:21.640 Evan told me it was tough for him last year 387 00:18:21.680 --> 00:18:24.599 tim to a not be able to go out for 388 00:18:24.640 --> 00:18:26.960 a second inning when Dave Roberts asked him in Game 389 00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:29.759 six of the NLCS, but even harder to sit out 390 00:18:29.759 --> 00:18:32.400 the World Series. But if he would have pushed it, 391 00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:35.839 this injury would have compromised his twenty twenty five season. 392 00:18:36.319 --> 00:18:39.279 And as we're looking out to the field right now, 393 00:18:39.720 --> 00:18:44.160 one of the Hollywood stars, Anthony Anderson, who was kind 394 00:18:44.160 --> 00:18:47.759 of the mantra of they not like Us pregame hype 395 00:18:47.839 --> 00:18:51.400 videos during the postseason last year, is the MC of 396 00:18:51.519 --> 00:18:55.240 tonight's ring ceremony, and he will be the one hyping 397 00:18:55.319 --> 00:18:58.799 up the crowd and presenting the players with their rings. 398 00:18:58.920 --> 00:18:59.960 All right, Taya David. 399 00:19:00.119 --> 00:19:01.920 Time now for the Dodger Derby brought to by Santa 400 00:19:01.920 --> 00:19:04.400 Anita Park. We select a race in Santa Anita to 401 00:19:04.480 --> 00:19:06.319
