Speaker 3: to ten.
Speaker 4: Coming up.
Speaker 2: Over the next hour here on Morogo Casino Dodgers on Deck,
Speaker 2: we're gonna hear from the manager, Dave Roberts.
Speaker 3: We'll dive deeper into this pit chain matchup.
Speaker 2: David Vats joins us throughout the hour, of course, and
Speaker 2: he'll go one on one with Justin Turner, who had
Speaker 2: a great pregame ceremony last night before the series opener.
Speaker 2: David's gonna go one on one with JT. We'll get
Speaker 2: you your Dodgers magical moment. Shortly, we'll go down to
Speaker 2: the field with Kirsten Watson. In just a few minutes,
Speaker 2: we're gonna head out to the Gallpin Motors broadcast booth
Speaker 2: and check in with Rick Monday and Charlie Steiner, who's
Speaker 2: on the call to start the game tonight. Well, last
Speaker 2: night at the Ravine, Stone pitched the gym as the
Speaker 2: Dodgers lineup was finally at full strength. Gavin Stone the
Speaker 2: Dodgers leader and wins. He went out and was really
Speaker 2: good again last night. Seven shutout innings. He allowed just
Speaker 2: two hits along the way while striking out a career
Speaker 2: high ten. The Dodgers offense, finally with everybody healthy, topped
Speaker 2: the bottom. This lineup looking like what we thought it
Speaker 2: was gonna look like when the season started. Guys got hurt,
Speaker 2: Guys are coming off the end of the list. Max
Speaker 2: Munty's back, Tommy Edmund activated made his Dodger debut. The
Speaker 2: Dodgers' bats finally came alive in the seventh inning with
Speaker 2: one out, Gavin Loucks too too.
Speaker 5: Gavin swings hits a drying, wet center field. It's deep,
Speaker 5: heading back to the wall.
Speaker 6: It is done.
Speaker 1: It's a home run turk.
Speaker 5: Gavin looks ama Dodgers leading one.
Speaker 7: Nothing much looks with home running up Umber nine on
Speaker 7: the season.
Speaker 2: Gavin lux goes deep. Dodgers up one to nothing. Luxey
Speaker 2: now batting three sixty six with ten doubles, six home
Speaker 2: runs and twenty rbi in the second half of the
Speaker 2: season alone. The Dodgers weren't done. The very next batter,
Speaker 2: Will Smith gets hit by a pitch that brought up
Speaker 2: Max Munsey.
Speaker 5: Chasing the starter Brian Woo out of the game after
Speaker 5: six and a thirty only allowed the one run on
Speaker 5: two hits, walk to and struck out five responsible for
Speaker 5: Smith at first and Monsey Hammer's line. This one's deep,
Speaker 5: this one's gone.
Speaker 4: Maxwell is back and.
Speaker 3: He's slimer a sober hammer.
Speaker 5: That is three nothing Dodgers.
Speaker 1: Home run number ten for Monthsey.
Speaker 2: Two run home run for Max Monsey, his first since
Speaker 2: May seventh.
Speaker 3: Dodgers up three to nothing. That's the top tier player
Speaker 3: of the game.
Speaker 2: Sponsored by Arco Quality, top tier gas for less. Gavin.
Speaker 2: He was fantastic last night. So was a Max Moncie.
Speaker 2: But how about Gavin Stone on the mound the seven
Speaker 2: shutout innings, Joe Kelly pitched the scoreless eighth. Evan Phillips
Speaker 2: came in a scoreless ninth Inny to close it out.
Speaker 2: Dodgers go on and shut out the Mariners three to nothing.
Speaker 2: Gavin Stone is eleventh win of the season the Dodgers'
Speaker 2: pitching staff. They allowed only two hits in the game,
Speaker 2: which is the fewest number of hits the Dodgers have
Speaker 2: allowed in a game this season. With the win, the
Speaker 2: Dodgers now seventy four and fifty two, first place in
Speaker 2: the division, ahead of the Padres and the Diamondbacks. Tonight,
Speaker 2: game two of this three game series. It's a big
Speaker 2: one for Walker Buehler, who's back on the mound, first
Speaker 2: pitch coming up at seven to ten, and with more
Speaker 2: let's head out to the Galloping Motors broadcast. But as
Speaker 2: we say hello and welcome in Rick Monday, Charlie Steiner, guys.
Speaker 4: All right, Tim, It's game two of the three game series.
Speaker 7: The Dodgers had the Mariners last night behind Gavin Stone,
Speaker 7: a three nothing win. The Dodgers now at seventy four
Speaker 7: and fifty two, have the second best wreck in the
Speaker 7: National League, and they have a three game lead on
Speaker 7: San Diego four on Arizona. The Mariners at sixty four
Speaker 7: and sixty two second place in the American League West,
Speaker 7: five behind the Houston Astros.
Speaker 4: Last night, Gavin Stone was really the story.
Speaker 8: He was really the story. By the way, nice to
Speaker 8: have you back. We need to do this more often.
Speaker 8: And my friend, if we go back to last night's
Speaker 8: ball game, a couple of things just really kind of
Speaker 8: struck me. First of all, if you look at Gavin
Speaker 8: Stone won a breath of fresh air, he has been
Speaker 8: I mean, he came in, he went seven innings, no
Speaker 8: runs on the two hits. He had twelve consecutive first
Speaker 8: strikes thrown to begin the ballgame. That is a pretty
Speaker 8: good league up On top of it, Dodgers had some
Speaker 8: timely hitting a couple of home runs coming to seventh inning.
Speaker 8: But the other big deal to the Dodgers made some
Speaker 8: very good defensive plays, and I think throughout the season
Speaker 8: the Dodgers defense has maybe been overlooked a little bit
Speaker 8: too much because they rose the occasion last night.
Speaker 7: And that shutout last night, the eleventh recorded by Dodger Pitch.
Speaker 8: It was also a weird too, Charlie, from a standpoint,
Speaker 8: is it not too often do you have this happened
Speaker 8: with two teams in one game. Ah, it was a
Speaker 8: three to nothing shutout, but both teams were zero for
Speaker 8: one with throwners in scoring position, so hitting and timely
Speaker 8: hitting was obviously right at the top of the chalkboard.
Speaker 7: And down the stretch we come. There are thirty six
Speaker 7: games left in the regular season, Dodgers twenty at home,
Speaker 7: sixteen on the road.
Speaker 4: This is the second game of the three game series with.
Speaker 7: The Mariners, and we'll detail the pitching matchups coming up
Speaker 7: a little bit later on.
Speaker 4: It's gonna be Walker Buehler tonight.
Speaker 7: He as much to prove against Brightce Miller lineups in
Speaker 7: first pitch coming up later, Tim, all.
Speaker 2: Right, thank you, Charlie. Great to tear your voice as
Speaker 2: we cunt you down to first pitch. Dodger fans, get

Speaker 2: We're gonna hear from the manager, Dave Roberts. We will
Speaker 2: check in with the David say he'll go one on
Speaker 2: what Justin Turner will dive deeper to this pitching matchup.
Speaker 3: It's a big one for Walker Buehler. But up next
Speaker 3: to your Otani.
Speaker 2: Rewind and we'll head down to the field and visit
Speaker 2: with Kirsten Watson from Sports Net LA. We're leading you

Speaker 2: dot com at it t O e N dot com.
Speaker 1: This is Kirston's Corner with Kirston Watson.
Speaker 2: Hey Kirson now joins us from the field the Dodgers stadium.
Speaker 2: A Walker Buehler gets to start tonight, Kirston, And we've
Speaker 2: seen some really good starts in the Dodgers as of racing,
Speaker 2: and Walker Buehler would be nice if he can come
Speaker 2: out and go long for the Dodgers tonight.
Speaker 9: And give him some length exactly, especially you know, he's
Speaker 9: coming off of a shortened doubting and the pitch count
Speaker 9: got up. He had a handful of walks and that's
Speaker 9: what really kind of got to meet is pitching behind
Speaker 9: me count. So the hope is for today you said,
Speaker 9: for him to go deeper into the game, that would
Speaker 9: be the first thing, but also just to have you know,
Speaker 9: a quality start for himself. Dave Roberts was saying today
Speaker 9: that he's just felt that you know, there have been
Speaker 9: parts which like kicking me in hasn't really been there,
Speaker 9: and it's about getting that first pitch strike. If he
Speaker 9: can just do that, get ahead in the accounts, because
Speaker 9: like that will put him up in and a good
Speaker 9: position to be successful. So hopefully, I mean, and that's
Speaker 9: that's the start of it. That he did say there's
Speaker 9: a few little delivery things he wants to see from him,
Speaker 9: but he does. You know, with Walker, he's healthy, and
Speaker 9: so the hope is that it can just be a
Speaker 9: start that can put him in the right direction to
Speaker 9: get him back on track. As to what we have
Speaker 9: been seeing from Walker pre injury and even have parts
Speaker 9: this year as well.
Speaker 2: It'd be nice to see Walker go out there and
Speaker 2: do his thing tonight, get back on track here for
Speaker 2: the final six weeks of the season. As far as
Speaker 2: the injury updates, Garrison yesterday, the Dodger, you get Tommy
Speaker 2: Edmunds backs, get Max Mounsey back.
Speaker 3: What's the latest with Yoshi Amamoto.
Speaker 9: Yeah, So for Yoshiovo, he actually he throw like a
Speaker 9: shortened bullpen today and he is going to throw a
Speaker 9: sin meme tomorrow that they have for that. Daviad is
Speaker 9: going to go two innings tomorrow, then he will next
Speaker 9: week throw three innings in the same game and then
Speaker 9: he's actually gonna go out on his rehab assignment. So
Speaker 9: he's progressing. So what you know, realistically, if each week
Speaker 9: you're building up, once he probably gets that five innings mark,
Speaker 9: he could be in a good spot to return as
Speaker 9: long as he continues to be healthy and he feels
Speaker 9: like he's in a really good spot. He's been very
Speaker 9: optimistic and very confident that, you know, he feels good,
Speaker 9: that soreness in his shoulder has dissipated. So as long
Speaker 9: as everything keeps moving in the right direction, we'll be
Speaker 9: seeing him back. What an a handful of weeks. Now,
Speaker 9: it's kind of crazy.
Speaker 2: To think what about Chris Taylor because the Dodgers could
Speaker 2: be getting him back sooner rather than later. If they do,
Speaker 2: it's another roster spot they gotta.
Speaker 9: Find, Yeah, and you know that's another tough decision that's
Speaker 9: going to have to be had. So for Chris, he's
Speaker 9: actually out on his rehab assignment now, he's with Rancho.
Speaker 9: So Dave Roberts is saying there was some conversation that
Speaker 9: he could potend to return this weekend. They've said today
Speaker 9: that you know, they'll see it. That could be the case.
Speaker 9: But what he really wants to see from Chris is
Speaker 9: ultimately his role is going to be a bat off
Speaker 9: the bench, and he wants to make sure that his
Speaker 9: swing isn't a really good spot. Chris has shared with
Speaker 9: the media that he's been working on a lot of
Speaker 9: stuff regard to the swing and it feels who it's
Speaker 9: comfortable with it now. So once he can through those
Speaker 9: results and he can know that he is a really
Speaker 9: viable option, a bat that can be consistent with the
Speaker 9: limited opportunity that he's likely going to have coming off
Speaker 9: the bench, they're going into, you know, the postseason student
Speaker 9: so that's what's got to be the focus. So once
Speaker 9: he can show that he's good with that, and yeah,
Speaker 9: he'll be returning, could be sooner than later, but that
Speaker 9: is that does mean there is going to be a
Speaker 9: very tough conversation's going to have to be had us
Speaker 9: to who is going to be taken out for him
Speaker 9: to have that roster shot.
Speaker 3: No, that's going to be a tough decision. Christen. We
Speaker 3: appreciate what check out with you after the game.

Speaker 2: Coming up first pitch of sevent.
Speaker 1: Ten, it's the LA Dodgers Injury.
Speaker 2: Report, presented by UCLA Healthy official medical partner the Los
Speaker 2: Angeles Dodgers. Freddie Freeman's playing through the pain of the
Speaker 2: hairline fracture in his right middle finger. Austin Barnes fractured toe.
Speaker 2: He's on the IL. Tyler Glass now on the IL
Speaker 2: with right elbow. Ten to nine is Bruce Ark Gratterol
Speaker 2: on the iel the right hamstring strain. Chris Taylor, as

Speaker 2: He's progressing. Yoshinoba Yamamoto, you heard the update as well.
Speaker 2: All right, let's head back out to Dodger Stadium as
Speaker 2: we check out the Dodgers, giver.
Speaker 10: Any questions for Dave Dave?
Speaker 1: Can you just describe Dave?
Speaker 3: Can you talk about the pressure.
Speaker 11: In the dugouts with Dave Roberts Well, what is telling
Speaker 11: me he's progressing. I think the conversations that we've had,
Speaker 11: you know, talking to Mark Pryor so that's one part
Speaker 11: of it. I think that what I'm looking for tonight
Speaker 11: is strike one. You know, a snow secret that when
Speaker 11: a pitcher gets ahead in the count, he has a
Speaker 11: lot more success. You know that last start in Milwaukee,
Speaker 11: I think he was somewhere in the thirties or high
Speaker 11: third percent of first pitch strike So you know, if
Speaker 11: we can get it somewhere around sixty percent, he's gonna
Speaker 11: have a lot more success and it's going to be
Speaker 11: an easier path for him. So I think that, you know,
Speaker 11: sitting here right now, I'd like to look back and say, hey,
Speaker 11: he filled up the strike zone and got strike one
Speaker 11: tonight with the offense.
Speaker 9: When we saw last I know you talked about just
Speaker 9: not only a the a complete win for this team,
Speaker 9: but just how you've seen everyone come back together and
Speaker 9: being healthy.
Speaker 1: Just how valuable has that been.
Speaker 11: It's been great. I think that now we can start,
Speaker 11: you know, if it stays kind of how it's been
Speaker 11: and guys can sort of get comfortable in their individual
Speaker 11: roles and it's starting to kind of play out as
Speaker 11: we envisioned it. I thought last night we ran out
Speaker 11: a very competitive lineup and sort of waited out Wu
Speaker 11: who threw a heck of a ball game. We've got
Speaker 11: a tough task to night and Miller who's really good
Speaker 11: as well. And I like the guys running out there,
Speaker 11: giving Migi a day off, but to still have Tommy
Speaker 11: at short and to run Caerma out there and center.
Speaker 11: I think we can prevent runs and so yeah, I
Speaker 11: think the length is there, the left right, and you
Speaker 11: know we just got to get you know, certain guys
Speaker 11: to go out there and pitch.
Speaker 2: Well, all right, there's Dave Roberts. Yeah, talking about the lineup.
Speaker 2: It is balanced topped to bottom. Dave Roberts down the dugout,
Speaker 2: brought to you by Service Titan. Dave Roberts say, Titan
Speaker 2: in his own right down there in the dugout, He's
Speaker 2: got a plan before his team hits the field. You

Speaker 1: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Tap on your home

Speaker 3: First pitch coming up at seven.
Speaker 1: Times, joining Tim Kats on Dodgers on Dead.
Speaker 6: I accept everybody for who they are.
Speaker 1: This is Dodger insider David Basse.
Speaker 4: All right, d V.
Speaker 2: It's been a long season, but finally kind of feels
Speaker 2: like the Dodgers lineup is where we thought it would be.
Speaker 3: This deep one through nine, it's pretty good.
Speaker 6: And even better than what we thought at the beginning
Speaker 6: of the season because Gavin Lux all of a sudden,
Speaker 6: has become a real problem for opposing pitchers since the
Speaker 6: All Star Break, since he went to go visit his
Speaker 6: uncle Aggy Schmidt in Wisconsin. He got back on track
Speaker 6: and better than ever. We haven't seen Gavin Lux, even
Speaker 6: when he was healthy two or three years ago, really
Speaker 6: command the batter's the way he is right now, hitting
Speaker 6: three sixty six six home runs since the All Star Break,
Speaker 6: and it seems like he has slowed.
Speaker 4: Down the game quite a bit.
Speaker 6: And then you add in Max Munsey's return, plus the
Speaker 6: acquisition of Tommy Edmond, who is starting at shortstop tonight
Speaker 6: one through nine. There's no other team out there that
Speaker 6: can say they have this type of lineup, and it
Speaker 6: reminds me of, you know, the twenty one Dodgers, the
Speaker 6: twenty seventeen Dodgers, where there is no place to exhale
Speaker 6: in this starting lineup.
Speaker 3: David is driven by Ford.
Speaker 2: If there's one thing we like, it's choices, find yours
Speaker 2: with the four f one fifty gas hybrid all electric
Speaker 2: tough this march, it can only be called the f
Speaker 2: one fifty. Walker Revueler gets to start David one in
Speaker 2: four five point fifty eight ero last time out, couldn't
Speaker 2: get out of the fourth ning. Four runs, four hits,
Speaker 2: four walks. Feels like there's a lot of questions now
Speaker 2: still surrounding Walker Vieler and what they're gonna do with
Speaker 2: it moving forward.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and just tonight, the biggest question is can he
Speaker 6: get strike one?
Speaker 4: He hasn't been able to do that.
Speaker 6: He was only throwing thirty percent of first pitch strikes
Speaker 6: in his last couple of starts. Dave Roberts said he's
Speaker 6: hoping that after the game he could talk about the
Speaker 6: fact that Walker Buehler was able to get sixty percent
Speaker 6: strike once against the Mariners tonight. And let's face it,
Speaker 6: the Mariners are one of the worst hitting teams in baseball,
Speaker 6: lois batting average in baseball, the most strikeouts as an
Speaker 6: offense in baseball. You saw what Gavin Stone did to
Speaker 6: them last night. If Walker Bueller can't get back on
Speaker 6: track against this team, which team can.
Speaker 4: He get back on track on?
Speaker 6: And the question is what are the alternatives for the
Speaker 6: Dodgers If it isn't Walker Buehler, Is it Landon Nack,
Speaker 6: Is it Justin Robleski, Bobby Miller struggling? Where do the
Speaker 6: Dodgers turn if Walker Buehler can't turn his season around.
Speaker 2: David Who's Dodger closer? Or is it closer by committee?
Speaker 4: Right now?
Speaker 6: Dave Roberts' game very annoyed with a certain sports writer
Speaker 6: that continues to ask for the fourth straight day if
Speaker 6: Michael Kopek is the closer or after last night, is
Speaker 6: Evan Phillips the closer. Dave Roberts has maintained that it's
Speaker 6: closer by committee. He is going to use whoever's available
Speaker 6: and whoever is the best as far as those groupings
Speaker 6: of hitters. And right now Evan Phillips has got his
Speaker 6: season back on track because he's playing off his ninety
Speaker 6: six to ninety eight fastball instead of just using his sweeper.
Speaker 6: So if Michael Kopek is not available, Evan Phillips or
Speaker 6: Daniel Hudson's going to close games. If Michael Kopek is available,
Speaker 6: there's a good chance you're going to see Kopek face
Speaker 6: the best hitters if they're coming up in the ninth inning.
Speaker 6: So nothing has changed, no matter how many days in
Speaker 6: a row. Dave Roberts is going to be asked.
Speaker 3: About it, foul thing DV.
Speaker 2: Tommy Edmund last night was in the outfield. Tonight, he's
Speaker 2: in the lineup and at shortstop. Is this something we're
Speaker 2: gonna see moving forward? Or they're gonna try to lock
Speaker 2: him into one position?
Speaker 6: Now, this is what you're going to see moving forward.
Speaker 6: Tommy Edmond is going to play the majority of his
Speaker 6: games in center field, and on the nights the Dodgers
Speaker 6: give Miguel Rojas off, you're going to see Tommy Edmund
Speaker 6: slide to shortstop. And I really love to see Kevin
Speaker 6: Kiermeier playing center field the rest of the season when
Speaker 6: Tommy Edmund is that shortstop that seems to be the
Speaker 6: logical lineup, so we'll see how it looks moving forward.
Speaker 3: He's the best in the business.
Speaker 2: Our Dodger insider David I say, thanks, TV. We'll check
Speaker 2: back you with you in just a little bit. Coming
Speaker 2: up here on Dodgers on Deck, we're gonna hear from
Speaker 2: Justin Turner that's coming up in fifteen minutes. We'll dive

Speaker 8: of the Pittsburgh Pirates that inspired this painting of Northern Rockwell?
Speaker 8: And it actually took place at Abbott's Field in Brooklyn.
Speaker 6: All right, we're gonna talk about art some more today,
Speaker 6: but the art of bunting.
Speaker 8: Bunting, Okay.
Speaker 6: We were watching Kevin Kiirmeyer earlier today practice bunting, and
Speaker 6: you picked up on a few things.
Speaker 8: Picked up on a couple of things, and I think, overall,
Speaker 8: you have to do it. And Dave Roberts came out
Speaker 8: and I was a little a little surprised at there
Speaker 8: and watching his technique. Evidently no one along the line
Speaker 8: has really kind of worked with him bunting. First of all,
Speaker 8: you're receiving the ball with the bat. And I say
Speaker 8: that because that's the image that we have to acquire
Speaker 8: to begin with. So we're not bunting the ball to
Speaker 8: where you're swinging and hitting it right, you're receiving it.
Speaker 8: You're receiving the ball with the bat. Now, there was
Speaker 8: a great line that was told to me and the
Speaker 8: way back when it is better to lay down good
Speaker 8: bunt and run it out then to lay down a
Speaker 8: bad bunt and you have got no chance to run
Speaker 8: it out. And this was related to me by Pete Reeser,
Speaker 8: who made a very good career with the Dodgers and
Speaker 8: bunting the ball on top of it.
Speaker 4: So that was the theory.
Speaker 8: So we're going to receive the ball with the bat
Speaker 8: to begin to it. Now, we were talking about left
Speaker 8: handed hitters because that's what Kirmyer is and not faulting
Speaker 8: anything that he was doing. He's working on it, and
Speaker 8: I think that could really be a big boost, especially
Speaker 8: lefty against the left. So we have this thought, we're
Speaker 8: going to receive the ball with the bat, and especially
Speaker 8: if I, as a left handed bat, are going to
Speaker 8: bunt the ball to the third day side, I want
Speaker 8: to receive the ball with the bat and I want
Speaker 8: to use the last six inches of the bat. Here's why.
Speaker 8: If you bunt the ball out there and you're receiving it.
Speaker 8: It absorbs the energy of the ball. The bat does
Speaker 8: because it's on the end of the bath. And I
Speaker 8: learned that from Pete Reeser and understanding how to do that.
Speaker 8: If you're bunting the ball to first base, you want
Speaker 8: to do really bunt the ball. Their Bermuda triangle and
Speaker 8: the Bermuted triangle if you're trying to drag bunt as
Speaker 8: a left handed batner is to have the first basement,
Speaker 8: the second basement, and the pitcher all think that they
Speaker 8: have not only a chance to make the play, but
Speaker 8: they have to make the play in order to get
Speaker 8: you out. So that's the Bermuda triangle where you're trying
Speaker 8: to bunt the ball. If you're pulling the ball for
Speaker 8: a base hit, but down the third baseline receiving the ball,
Speaker 8: receive it with the last six inches of the bat.
Speaker 8: That absorbs the bat. The energy in the ball comes
Speaker 8: off dead.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 6: In Dodger history, there's two really good bunters, More Wells
Speaker 6: and Brett Butler. Rick Monday was not known as a
Speaker 6: bunt taipe hitter.
Speaker 4: How do you know so much about it?
Speaker 8: I did, but Pete Reeser, I actually went after I
Speaker 8: had five years in the major leagues. I actually went
Speaker 8: to instructional league to learn how to bunt, and I
Speaker 8: stayed in an instructional league, I think for either three
Speaker 8: and a half or four weeks, and Pete Reeser worked
Speaker 8: with me, and I had to bunt the ball at
Speaker 8: least once every game that I played in in order
Speaker 8: to get the rhythm, in order to get thee and
Speaker 8: the concept. And again it's the concept is you're receiving
Speaker 8: the ball with the bats.
Speaker 6: Why has the art of bunting fell to the waistside
Speaker 6: in Major league baseball?
Speaker 8: Uh, chicks dig long ball, Yeah, And that's how the
Speaker 8: baseball came out with that without advertising, right, So that's
Speaker 8: that's kind of the story. I also believe that if
Speaker 8: we're looking at them, there's nothing concrete that I've seen
Speaker 8: presented to me. But if we hear conversations back and forth,
Speaker 8: I think majority of organizations now believe that bunting, in
Speaker 8: particular bunting a runner over to the next base is
Speaker 8: giving away an out. Well, there are some guys that
Speaker 8: they're going to give away an out if they're swinging
Speaker 8: the batto.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 8: And if you can run a lick and you can
Speaker 8: maybe overcome an over four or an over five, and
Speaker 8: especially if you're going to be near the bottom of
Speaker 8: the order. We saw this last road trip opportunities the
Speaker 8: bunt a runner over at the bottom of the lineup,
Speaker 8: knowing who's coming up next. You got to Tony, Betsy
Speaker 8: just returned behind Bets, You've got Freeman. That's a pretty
Speaker 8: good trio to say, hey, look, if I get the
Speaker 8: runner over in the scoring position, there's a real good
Speaker 8: chance that one of the next three guys coming up
Speaker 8: is going to knock them in.
Speaker 6: And in the postseason, that's how you manufacture runs because
Speaker 6: you're facing really good pitchers.
Speaker 8: And I thought last night was just one tremendous ball
Speaker 8: game on pitching, and not just by Gavin Stone for
Speaker 8: the Dodgers, which he went seven innings, no runs, and
Speaker 8: only two vents. I also thought that Brian wu pisched
Speaker 8: a very good game himself for the Santelamernis. Don't take
Speaker 8: the Mariners lightly. I mentioned this last night. It's worth
Speaker 8: mitching again. They have the lowest team ERA in Najor
Speaker 8: League Baseball. They also have the lowest batting average of
Speaker 8: any team in baseball. It's like two different teams wrapped
Speaker 8: up in the one offense. Forget about pitching. Hey, they're
Speaker 8: right at the top.
Speaker 4: Of the ladder.
Speaker 6: Sounds like a recipe for another Dodger wins.
Speaker 8: Remember and next time you're bunting in your kids t ball,
Speaker 8: receive the ball at the back.
Speaker 6: Okay, thanks Rick, Thanks for taking us to school again.
Speaker 6: We'll send it back to you in the studio.

Speaker 2: Justin came two in this three game set with Justin

Speaker 2: I'm Tim Kasi's Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Morongo Casino Dodgers Undue game on your home

Speaker 2: Dodgers and Mariners on this Tuesday night taskar her Nandez

Speaker 1: And now what will likely be vast a fielding insults
Speaker 1: from a Dodger player.
Speaker 3: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 1: This this high and tight.
Speaker 6: The one and only Justin Turner joining us here in
Speaker 6: the Mariners. Dugout Man, what a beautiful night last night
Speaker 6: at Dodgers Stadium.
Speaker 10: JT. Yeah, it was. It was something. It was pretty special,
Speaker 10: and uh, you know, I want to thank the whole
Speaker 10: Dodgers organization for putting so much thought and time into
Speaker 10: that and making it a night that myself in court
Speaker 10: and one day, boll we'll always remember. So.
Speaker 6: I know you had some idea that Dodgers were going
Speaker 6: to honor your first turned back here. But did it
Speaker 6: exceed your expectations?
Speaker 10: Yeah, I knew, I knew someone was going on. They
Speaker 10: told me that they were gonna do a presentation after
Speaker 10: the anthem and then didn't know what. Obviously go out
Speaker 10: there and the tribute video was was amazing. Had me,
Speaker 10: you know, in all my feels and running back all
Speaker 10: the memories, all the great memories we've had here. The
Speaker 10: check presentation to the Foundation, I think was certainly spectacular.
Speaker 10: I think everyone here knows how much the foundation means,
Speaker 10: the court and I how much work, especially Courtney puts
Speaker 10: into the foundation. So that was definitely a nice, nice touch.
Speaker 10: But the thing that got me the most, and you know,
Speaker 10: thinking back and I actually wrote text to a bunch
Speaker 10: of the guys this morning, but you know, I've been
Speaker 10: a part of that on the other side. You know,
Speaker 10: when guys make their return to down your stadium, and
Speaker 10: usually it's one or two guys come out and give
Speaker 10: a gift or a jersey or a picture or something.
Speaker 10: When I around and saw ten guys coming out of dugout, uh,
Speaker 10: you know that that kind of got me a little bit.
Speaker 10: And uh, I don't know if that was planned. I
Speaker 10: don't know if that's how it was supposed to go,
Speaker 10: but you know, I wrote all those guys this morning
Speaker 10: and that that meant the world to me, and uh
Speaker 10: that was at that point I started getting a little
Speaker 10: little mode. I was doing great until I saw all
Speaker 10: those guys walking out. I'm like, oh man, this is
Speaker 10: this is cool.
Speaker 6: Honestly, a lot of players put on the Dodger uniform,
Speaker 6: but they never even have one signature moment. What makes
Speaker 6: Justin Turner's nine years special is your signature moments were great,
Speaker 6: you accomplished it, you did it, but it was in
Speaker 6: the process of winning. Not many guys get that.
Speaker 10: Yeah, like I said, it was. It was a special
Speaker 10: nine years and a lot of a lot of big moments,
Speaker 10: you know, not just for me. A lot of guys
Speaker 10: had big swings, big plays, big pitches. That was so
Speaker 10: cool to be a part of it. And I think
Speaker 10: obviously one of the biggest ones out of all of
Speaker 10: them was I guess my last act as a Dodger,
Speaker 10: and I was winning the Clemente Award in twenty two.
Speaker 10: So at the time I had no idea that that
Speaker 10: was going to be the last accolade I achieved. As
Speaker 10: a Dodger. But looking back on it, if I'm going
Speaker 10: to go out and not put the uniform on again,
Speaker 10: accepting that award on behalf of court and I and
Speaker 10: the foundation is something that is probably the greatest accomplishment
Speaker 10: I had in a doubt uniform.
Speaker 6: Well, that's the reason why fifty one thousand plus at
Speaker 6: Dodger Stadium and the whole city loves you, is because
Speaker 6: not only did you perform on the field, but you
Speaker 6: cared about people off the field, especially during the pandemic,
Speaker 6: spending your own money to be able to feed people
Speaker 6: and keep people employed. I think everybody realizes that and
Speaker 6: doesn't forget and it resonates with.
Speaker 10: All of us. Yeah, man, I think you know, just
Speaker 10: in twenty fourteen, getting the opportunity to come back home
Speaker 10: being from southern California, putting on the Dodger uniform with
Speaker 10: something special, and then coming here every night leading the
Speaker 10: league in attendance, having the people of this great city
Speaker 10: of la come out every single night supporting us. And
Speaker 10: you know, I'm one of the few guys that live here,
Speaker 10: lived here year round, and and got the opportunity to
Speaker 10: see the fans, whether it's in a mall at a
Speaker 10: movie theater down by the beach, whatever it is, and
Speaker 10: to see the love. I can't say it enough. To
Speaker 10: see how much love this city has for the Dodgers
Speaker 10: is special. So being able to give back, being able
Speaker 10: to start our foundation, being able to impact people's lives
Speaker 10: who are in need or who are going through the
Speaker 10: unthinkable with something that you know, Court and I don't
Speaker 10: take lightly, and something we're going to continue to do,
Speaker 10: and something that we're very very proud of.
Speaker 6: Well, even though he's only a couple of months old,
Speaker 6: baby bo, when he gets older, he's going to realize
Speaker 6: how much this city loves Justin Turner because not of
Speaker 6: what he did on the field, but who he is
Speaker 6: as a person.
Speaker 10: So thank you for the time.
Speaker 6: And I don't believe it's going to be a one
Speaker 6: day contract situation. I'm holding out hope Justin Turner's final
Speaker 6: act is wearing a Dodger uniform in his final season
Speaker 6: whenever that is. So I'm not thinking about some ceremonial thing.
Speaker 6: I'm thinking about really playing You're the next David Freezer
Speaker 6: Chase Utley one day?
Speaker 10: All right, the door's always open, man, We'll see what happens.
Speaker 10: It's a crazy game, a lot of moving pieces, crazy business,
Speaker 10: but that would certainly be the cherry on top of
Speaker 10: hopefully a really long career, no doubt. Great to have
Speaker 10: you back here.
Speaker 6: It was special seeing you in Boston, but extra special
Speaker 6: being here with you and seeing the way the fans
Speaker 6: received you last night.
Speaker 10: So thanks a lot for the time. Yeah, I was
Speaker 10: so great to be home. Fans, Love you guys. That
Speaker 10: was awesome. My Felter energy, FELTERR love and yeah, I
Speaker 10: miss you guys.
Speaker 6: Turned down for what there he is Red turn too.
Speaker 6: Justin Turner will send it back to you in the studio.
Speaker 2: Tim, all right, thanks a lot of DV not one

Speaker 2: mentioned he's been pretty good. Last time out, seven shutout innings,
Speaker 2: too HiT's nine strikeouts in a no decision, no run
Speaker 2: support against the Detroit Tigers, making his second career start
Speaker 2: against the Dodgers. In that lone start, five and a

Speaker 2: with a five fifty eight ERA. Thirty year old right
Speaker 2: hander eighth season down in the Big league's been battling injuries.
Speaker 2: Missed most of twenty twenty two and all of twenty

Speaker 2: can keep sending them back out there. As again the
Speaker 2: Dodgers in the midst of a pennant race in the

Speaker 2: dot Org. All right, let's head back out to the
Speaker 2: booth rick Monday, Charlie Steiner, Guys.
Speaker 7: All right, Tim, It's game two of the three game
Speaker 7: series the Dodgers and the Mariners. Dodgers coming off their
Speaker 7: eleventh shutout victory of the year last night against a
Speaker 7: fine pitching team in the Mariners. Bryce Miller's going for them.
Speaker 7: Walker Bueller one in four and a five point fifty
Speaker 7: eight ra still looking to find.
Speaker 8: His way, still looking to find his way, and just
Speaker 8: listening to the manager Dave Roberts earlier today says Roberts
Speaker 8: is going to be looking for strikes, strikes early in
Speaker 8: the count. That was not the case in his last
Speaker 8: outing where he threw over eighty pitches in three and
Speaker 8: the third innings. The other part two is Roberts was saying,
Speaker 8: and this is a quote. Bueller had plenty of time
Speaker 8: during the rehab sections to be able to get himself right.
Speaker 8: So it's the fact of getting ahead of pitchers in
Speaker 8: trying to do it early in counts.
Speaker 4: What do you know about Bryce Miller?
Speaker 8: Well, first of all, as you mentioned earlier, the Mariners,
Speaker 8: they may be struggling. They're now five games out of
Speaker 8: first place, not because of the pitching in particular starting pitching.
Speaker 8: Miller is one of those guys. The last six starts
Speaker 8: he's three and ozero. But how about this a one
Speaker 8: to seventy two er, And in those six starts he's
Speaker 8: allowed just one home run to be hit out of
Speaker 8: the ballpark.
Speaker 7: And offensively, the Dodgers have a whole new look. Tommy
Speaker 7: Edmund's going to start at shortstop tonight. Monsey with the
Speaker 7: home run last night. Kier Meyer is going to be
Speaker 7: in center field. And you've got Otani and Bets something
Speaker 7: I want to talk to you about as the game
Speaker 7: goes on. Otani one, bets two, Bets one, Otani two
Speaker 7: in the lineup.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it depends on which way it's going to go.
Speaker 8: We'll talk about during the game a little bit more.
Speaker 8: And watching Mookie Betz very closely today in batting practice,
Speaker 8: he worked on going the opposite field a great deal.
Speaker 8: Now that's part of his routine to get loose. But
Speaker 8: is he going to apply it a little bit more tonight?
Speaker 8: Knowing that Bryce Miller has a very good split finger,
Speaker 8: fastball hitters want to stay back behind the ball.
Speaker 7: Talking about the right fielder Mookie Betts and Tommy Edmund's
Speaker 7: going to make his first start at shortstop for the Dodgers,
Speaker 7: batting eighth tonight. Lineup's the first pitch coming up?
Speaker 2: All right, first pitch is next. David Vatsay's got all
Speaker 2: the post game when this one is over.
Speaker 3: Enjoyed it.
