Speaker 2: the City of Angels as the Los Angeles Dodgers defeats
Speaker 2: the New York Yankees by a final of seventy six
Speaker 2: in a thrilling game in the Bronx tonight, the Yankees
Speaker 2: jumping all over Jack Flarity, who couldn't get out of
Speaker 2: the second inning. Things did not look good for the
Speaker 2: boys in Blue down five nothing after three innings, and
Speaker 2: then the Yankees helped the Dodgers in a tremendous way.
Speaker 2: Two airs and a miscue in the fifth inning by
Speaker 2: the Yankees defense opened the door for the Dodgers to
Speaker 2: score five runs in the top half of the fifth inning.
Speaker 2: They tied the score at five. Yankees reed took the
Speaker 2: lead at the bottom of the sixth, but the Dodgers
Speaker 2: in the top half of the eighth inning, manufacturing runs.
Speaker 2: Gavin lux Is sackfly scoring Key k Hernandez, and then
Speaker 2: Mookie Betts a great piece of hitting a sack five
Speaker 2: to right center field, scoring Tommy Edmond. The Dodgers took
Speaker 2: a seven to six lead the bottom of the eighth
Speaker 2: Blake Trinon went back out and pitched for Dave Roberts,
Speaker 2: who pieced together a bullpen performance of the ages tonight.
Speaker 2: After Jack Flaherty couldn't get out of the second inning,
Speaker 2: Blake Trining comes back in the bottom half of the
Speaker 2: eighth inning, Aaron Judge with a one out double down
Speaker 2: the left field line. Jazz Chisholm walked, they got the
Speaker 2: time base at second the tie run at second base,
Speaker 2: and that's when gen Carlos Stanton swings at the first
Speaker 2: pitch and pops out to right field for the second
Speaker 2: out of the eighth inning. And then in a great
Speaker 2: at bat and pitching from Blake trying to strike out
Speaker 2: Anthony Rizzo on four pitches, a sweeper that had Anthony
Speaker 2: Rizzo on skates in the box for the final out
Speaker 2: of the eighth inning. The Dodgers come back in the
Speaker 2: bottom half of the ninth inning, still with a one
Speaker 2: run lead, and walker bleep and Bueler comes out of
Speaker 2: the bullpen and finishes off the ninth inning with a
Speaker 2: one two three inning, including the strikeout of Alex Verdugo,
Speaker 2: the former Dodger, to end the game, and then poses
Speaker 2: on the grass in the Bronx to celebrate as the
Speaker 2: Dodgers ran downto the field and celebrate the eighth franchises
Speaker 2: title as World Series Champions. Unbelievable tonight at Yankee Stadium.
Speaker 2: A great game, an emotional rollercoaster in an up and
Speaker 2: down Dodger offense, a Dodger bullpen that came in and
Speaker 2: saved Jack Flaherty after he goes in inning in the third,
Speaker 2: Anthony Bonda, Ryan Brasier, Michael Kopek, Alex Vesia, Bruce, darc Graderal,
Speaker 2: who walked three, gets picked up by Blake Trinon, who
Speaker 2: was huge tonight. Blake Trinon goes two and a third innings,
Speaker 2: did not allow a run, just the one hit, struck
Speaker 2: out three through forty two pitches. He was rested after
Speaker 2: not pitching since Game two, and he was ready to
Speaker 2: go for Dave Roberts Tonight, who then had nobody else
Speaker 2: to go to, had nobody else he could call upon
Speaker 2: because the four other Dodger relievers all pitched last night
Speaker 2: and weren't available tonight in Game five. So Walker Buehler
Speaker 2: goes down to the Dodgers' bullpen in the sixth inning,
Speaker 2: says he wants in gets into the ninth inning, and
Speaker 2: what it would have been in a Game seven starter,
Speaker 2: No need for that, have him pitch the ninth close
Speaker 2: out this game and the Dodgers are World Series champions

Speaker 2: Eight six six nine eighty seven two five seventy is
Speaker 2: our number. Want you to be a part of this show.
Speaker 2: Tonight eight six six nine eighty seven two five seventy,
Speaker 2: we're celebrating a Dodgers World Series championship, and we're talking
Speaker 2: about what a great season it is, what a great
Speaker 2: postseason run it was, and what a Game five of
Speaker 2: this World Series in New York tonight, the Dodgers down
Speaker 2: five to nothing. They come all the way back to
Speaker 2: tie it with a five run fifth inning. They fall
Speaker 2: behind against six to five, only to score two runs
Speaker 2: to the top half of the eighth inning. As the
Speaker 2: Dodgers get the win, Walker Bleepin Bueller comes in and
Speaker 2: closes it out for the same Blake try and picks
Speaker 2: up the win, his second of the postseason. As the
Speaker 2: Dodgers are your World Series champions. Here in twenty twenty four,
Speaker 2: Rome in Covena, Rome, what's going on in Covina to night?
Speaker 2: Everybody celebrate responsibly?
Speaker 3: Oh, we're good, We're all good.
Speaker 6: You know what, Dave, Dave freaking Roberts started coaching his
Speaker 6: ass off from Game four against the Padres, and you
Speaker 6: know what, people were talking about this he's done. You
Speaker 6: know what, Dave freaking Roberts coached his ass off.
Speaker 2: Yes he did, Yes he did. Rome, I appreciated Dave Roberts,
Speaker 2: all all the praise to him. I think Freddie Freeman
Speaker 2: said it best on the post game. It's time to
Speaker 2: give Dave Roberts his flowers for what he's done and
Speaker 2: the way he orchestrated this Dodgers pitching staff this postseason.
Speaker 2: Let's remember everybody, okay as we celebrate and have a
Speaker 2: good time. This was a Dodgers rotation that was absolutely
Speaker 2: depleted by injuries. Think about the guys who weren't a
Speaker 2: part of this postseason run. Walker Bueller was, Clayton Kershaw
Speaker 2: was not Gavin Stone, was not Tyler glass Now was
Speaker 2: not River Ryan not here. This was a Dodger pitching
Speaker 2: staff decimated by injuries. Kyle Hurt was a part of
Speaker 2: this team. Emmit Shean, going back to the beginning of
Speaker 2: the season, a part of this team. Tony Gonslin never
Speaker 2: saw the mound in twenty twenty four recovering from Tommy
Speaker 2: John surgery. Dustin May we never saw this season. And
Speaker 2: despite all that, they go in a postseason run, and
Speaker 2: when they get to the World Series they need bullpen games.
Speaker 2: And then tonight Jack Felerity, one of the three starters
Speaker 2: they actually have in the World Series, can't get out
Speaker 2: of the second inning, so it becomes another bullpen game.
Speaker 2: Freddie Freeman's the MVP of the World Series. But you
Speaker 2: know who else is an MVP the bullpen. Every one
Speaker 2: of those dogs down in the bullpen deserve praise, all
Speaker 2: of them, from Honeywell to Kopek, to Vesia, Gradol, Knack, Trynan, Brasier, Bonda, Hudson,
Speaker 2: all those dudes down there, Casparius. All of them contributed
Speaker 2: in this World Series, most of them multiple times. And
Speaker 2: tonight one, two, three, four, five, six, seven different relievers
Speaker 2: coming out of the bullpen, including Walker, Bleep and Bueller
Speaker 2: to close it out in the ninth inning. Those guys
Speaker 2: are dogs down to the bullpen. They took the challenge,
Speaker 2: they accepted the challenge, and they helped this Dodgers team
Speaker 2: to a World Series championship. I'm telling you, the bullpen
Speaker 2: is a big, big part of why the Dodgers right
Speaker 2: now are celebrating and coming home with the World Series
Speaker 2: Championship trophy. The bullpen. The bullpen was nails all postseason long.
Speaker 2: Manuel Guardina, my man, Manuel, what's going on?
Speaker 15: Buddy?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 16: Kim Man Well, first off, Doc Roberts.
Speaker 13: Andrew Friedanan Gomes Man the best in the business. You know,
Speaker 13: we're lucky to have those guys. You know, we knew
Speaker 13: for a while now. I think that when those guys
Speaker 13: were getting on days and they had that in house meeting,
Speaker 13: the players meeting, That's when I knew this team had
Speaker 13: the heart to make the destiny happen. And tonight we
Speaker 13: saw that man Walker, Bueller, Blake trying bro. Man, that
Speaker 13: guy's such an unsung hero.
Speaker 16: And another guy that never gets the credit, Anthony Bonda.
Speaker 16: How many times did we turn to that guy? My
Speaker 16: boy Nick called him out like months ago. He was like, watch,
Speaker 16: Anthony Bonda is going to be a major player in
Speaker 16: our team's victory of the championship. Because we knew it, man,
Speaker 16: this was our year. We've seen it for years. The
Speaker 16: only difference was that this team just had heart of
Speaker 16: a champion, heart of a lion. I mean so much
Speaker 16: hard it can't even be contained in a chest.
Speaker 17: I'll say it.
Speaker 16: Like that, man, Thank you to you to call in
Speaker 16: to that guy behind the boards McDonald that I never
Speaker 16: give credit to Dwayne McDonald.
Speaker 12: I think you guys. You guys are awesome.
Speaker 18: Man.
Speaker 16: You guys are the pipeline to Dodger Nation, and LA
Speaker 16: is lucky to have AM five seventy because you guys
Speaker 16: are what a station is supposed to be for a
Speaker 16: championship club and a team that is the Yankees of
Speaker 16: the West, the Dodgers. We're taking over this biyitch all.

Speaker 23: Yeah, congratulations to our our team, and hass off to
Speaker 23: Dave Roberts, our manager, and well done, well done to him.
Speaker 23: And despite all the injuries and all that. And I
Speaker 23: don't know if I'm gonna go on Friday because I'm
Speaker 23: getting I'm staging with them getting my hair done, but
Speaker 23: I'll watch it on TV. But I don't have a
Speaker 23: car right now. But I've loved but I'm so happy
Speaker 23: that they're getting the parade because back in twenty twenty,
Speaker 23: of course they won during COVID, but this is the
Speaker 23: best team I've ever seen in witnessed and I'm so happy,
Speaker 23: happy for everybody, and So what's whatever happened to James
Speaker 23: Altman Is he's seen no longer around?
Speaker 2: It's a great question. James Albam a great part of
Speaker 2: this Dodgers team the last two years, finished off the
Speaker 2: year in TRIPLEA Oklahoma City. So yeah, James Allmen another
Speaker 2: guy who at one point this season contributed to the
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four Dodgers. And yeah, there's a huge, a
Speaker 2: huge group of players who may not have been on
Speaker 2: this World Series roster around the team certainly, and guys
Speaker 2: who are a part of this team that may not
Speaker 2: be with them but contributed during the regular season in
Speaker 2: some port. As Dave Roberts says, when they gather together
Speaker 2: at the clubhouse at Camelback Ranch to start spring training,
Speaker 2: he says it, Tommy the Storta said it. You look
Speaker 2: around the clubhouse. So when you got all those guys
Speaker 2: in there that are non roster on Vite's the forty
Speaker 2: man roster guys, it's a pat clubhouse. And Dave Roberts
Speaker 2: told all of them, all of you will be a
Speaker 2: part of this team at some point in some fashion.
Speaker 2: And that's true, whether it's a couple starts, a couple,
Speaker 2: AB's a couple of games, sticking with the club, going
Speaker 2: back and forth to Triple A and back being a
Speaker 2: starter every day, being a part of the rotation, getting hurt,
Speaker 2: still being around the team. A lot of guys contribute
Speaker 2: to this. I mean, how many different starting pitchers did
Speaker 2: they have? How many different lines did they throw out there?
Speaker 2: Think of the guys like Kevin Bigio who were here
Speaker 2: for a month and contributed this Dodger team. Wasn't here
Speaker 2: with them late, wasn't a part of the postseason run,
Speaker 2: but they needed him when they had injuries and Max
Speaker 2: Munsey missed time and certainly during the time in which
Speaker 2: six weeks Mookie Betts dealt with the broken hand. So yeah,
Speaker 2: it doesn't just take twenty six guys and that's it.
Speaker 2: It doesn't just take nine starters and that's it. It
Speaker 2: takes a group of guys, and it takes every man
Speaker 2: on the forty man roster and then some to help
Speaker 2: win a championship. And that's what happened with this Dodgers team.
Speaker 2: And you saw it tonight with all those different arms
Speaker 2: that came out of the bullpen. Eight six, six, nine,
Speaker 2: eight seven two five seventy eight sixty six nine to
Speaker 2: eighty seven, two five seventy. Let's go out to the
Speaker 2: dojo in Wittier, the one and only Victor Brigg Jacobs.
Speaker 2: On this Wednesday night in Southern California, we reflect on
Speaker 2: what a great season it was. From Kevelback Ranch in
Speaker 2: late February to Soeul, South Korea to start the season,
Speaker 2: to the battles in the NL West, the race against
Speaker 2: the Giants, Padres, time it Backs and Rockies for the
Speaker 2: division to ultimately hold off the Padres, to square off
Speaker 2: against the Padres and the Ds and win in five games,
Speaker 2: and the National League Championship Series to take care of
Speaker 2: business against the New York Mets, and then tonight to
Speaker 2: finish off the Yankees. In the Bronx were this man
Speaker 2: not in that borough, but a different Burrough lost his
Speaker 2: teeth in the sewer, grew up. He is Victor Brigg
Speaker 2: Jacobs VTB.
Speaker 24: In Kate does with fans.
Speaker 3: Take a moment. I'm fairly you, Jimmy, You're exactly right.
Speaker 25: The great path has no path from South Korea to
Speaker 25: the Bronx. It's been an incredible, incredible odyssey for the
Speaker 25: twenty sixth Summari of Love, and this team kept saying
Speaker 25: we love one another, we believe in one another, and
Speaker 25: they win one for Fernando Valezuela. As al Toro used
Speaker 25: to say, beating the Yankees, it feels great.
Speaker 17: And I feel good, and you knew that we would.
Speaker 3: As my bride.
Speaker 25: You go set after game four, enjoy it, Yankees, it's
Speaker 25: your last win. Message to the Bronx, Mookie, this Dodgers
Speaker 25: man to come out down five, as you chronicled so well,
Speaker 25: tim and breaking down. You know this this game which
Speaker 25: was a roller coaster to be down five in the Bronx.
Speaker 25: When the Yankees were gonna do a die situation, they
Speaker 25: wanted to go on the plane, you know, back to
Speaker 25: the Sea of dot They wanted to come back to
Speaker 25: Los Angeles for a game six, and they had a
Speaker 25: five run league with their best git your d cole
Speaker 25: on the mount mowing down the Dodgers.
Speaker 3: But you're right, the.
Speaker 25: Dodgers pounced on the mistakes of the Bronx bombers. Judge
Speaker 25: blows a pop up and center field you gotta.
Speaker 19: Be kidding me.
Speaker 25: Vote Volpai blows a throw to third base opens the floodgates.
Speaker 25: Mookie with the no community occasion between Rizzo and d

Speaker 2: is packing up and get ready to head back to
Speaker 2: Los Angeles Jose, congratulations to you on a great season English, Spanish,
Speaker 2: the broadcast and certainly I know a lot of heavy
Speaker 2: hearts right now in that broadcast boot tonight, as you
Speaker 2: guys called the celebration.
Speaker 27: Yep, there are you know what, more than anything, so
Speaker 27: happy for the Dodger fans. Well deserved every ounce every
Speaker 27: energy we felt in the broadcast booth as you mentioned
Speaker 27: in both languages, and also want to congratulate your team
Speaker 27: and the w you guys have done for welcome me,
Speaker 27: welcoming me into your family. It was so emotional because
Speaker 27: there's so many people attached to this whole thing, and
Speaker 27: you know, the fans are sowing the money, You're on
Speaker 27: the money, Rocker Bueler, I mean, come on, there's we
Speaker 27: all know there's always going to be dogging him, but
Speaker 27: who would have thought Dave Roberts For those that doubt it,
Speaker 27: why he took somebody out early while he was punning
Speaker 27: ahead and maybe sacrificing somebody in some particular games, there's
Speaker 27: always a reason. And more than anything, the players, Man,
Speaker 27: these players just went out there from day one with
Speaker 27: a tough schedule, studying early in spring training, facing the
Speaker 27: Potters in Korea, a couple of distractions here and there,
Speaker 27: but man, they stuck right with it. And also players
Speaker 27: development the scouts, because it seems like every time the
Speaker 27: Valuers lost, the picture was like what do they do now?
Speaker 27: And then it was like next guy step up. And
Speaker 27: then at the same time, those dogs in that bullpen,
Speaker 27: oh my goodness, you cannot do it without them. Freddy
Speaker 27: Freeman Nolle thinks he's gone through the mole. Also Showyl
Speaker 27: Towny eight hundred and seventy five games career, never played
Speaker 27: in October, and here we are, first year with the
Speaker 27: Dodgers and he's got a rank. So Dodger fans to
Speaker 27: you rash elations, well, loser for any of the doubt
Speaker 27: at twenty twenty. Well here it is obably one sixty two.
Speaker 27: And to do it against the Yankees Yankee Stadium, Yes,
Speaker 27: it feels pretty good.
Speaker 2: The bullpen did their job, The Dodgers bass did their
Speaker 2: job lay coming back and winning this game tonight. But
Speaker 2: the job of the dogs, the guys in the bullpens
Speaker 2: accepting their roles, all of them coming together in this postseason.
Speaker 2: I know Freddy Freeman won the MVP because of the
Speaker 2: World Series. He had but the postseason MVP overall, I'm
Speaker 2: giving to the bullpen because they did a tremendous job.
Speaker 27: There's no doubt these guys knew what their role was.
Speaker 27: Dave Roberts knew exactly how to maneuver and go and
Speaker 27: carve out through the lineups which matchups were more favorable.
Speaker 27: Those Dodgers and everybody talked about didn't have enough pitching.
Speaker 27: Guess what, you do have enough pitching. Maybe not enough
Speaker 27: star think pitching, but enough to go out there and
Speaker 27: get it done. And that's why I applauded the most
Speaker 27: and Dave Roberts to consider this and the coaching staff,
Speaker 27: which I want to congratulate, those meaningful games they played
Speaker 27: in late September. Carrow it into October, and the reason
Speaker 27: it is look at the Dodgers and the way they
Speaker 27: played in October, which was not one dimensional baseball on
Speaker 27: the offensive side, any opportunity presented by the opponent they exploited,
Speaker 27: especially tonight. It was a clear evidence that this team
Speaker 27: was always in a game with one swing, one play,
Speaker 27: one smart move, and the players dedicated themselves to having
Speaker 27: more team at bats than ever, concentrating on just why
Speaker 27: is the task at hand? And where are we in
Speaker 27: this in this game. I can't say enough about what
Speaker 27: this means for us as Dodgers fans grew up. You
Speaker 27: know this organization from my father Manny who every game
Speaker 27: there's the comments. We talk pretty much every single day
Speaker 27: homework road about what happened in that game. But also
Speaker 27: Fernando Valley as well.
Speaker 23: I'm in my.
Speaker 27: Broadcast partner Beepe Him was with us a him for
Speaker 27: all of the congressions. But more than anything, you know, Fernando,
Speaker 27: we at that jersey, not only at Dodger standing, we
Speaker 27: have that jersey here in Yankee Stadium in a meant
Speaker 27: a lot to see fans that come up and look
Speaker 27: at number thirty fourth there looking at us into his
Speaker 27: whole family. Our regards, but see you guys, congratulations and
Speaker 27: this is being exciting to be able to win a
Speaker 27: ring with the Angels and the only World Service appearance
Speaker 27: and not have one where everything started for us as
Speaker 27: a Mortar family, with our family, the Blue family, with
Speaker 27: the Dodgers. Man, thanks no.
Speaker 2: Doubt about it, Jose. It's been a fun year. It's
Speaker 2: been a special year ends with a World Series championship.

Speaker 2: the season. You hear him on all the games on

Speaker 2: Oscar. You know they had a plan. You knew they
Speaker 2: were gonna just wait out. Garrett Cole and they were
Speaker 2: gonna come back with five runs and get help from
Speaker 2: the y. He's gifted those five runs at that inning.
Speaker 2: You know how many airs Aaron Judge had during the
Speaker 2: regular season, zero zero airs, and he he muffed the
Speaker 2: ball in center field to open up the door for
Speaker 2: the Dodgers. That's Fernando looking down above. That's that's from above.
Speaker 2: That is a sign. That's all the Dodgers up in
Speaker 2: Blue Heaven looking down on the Dodgers opening the door
Speaker 2: for them to score five runs to get back into
Speaker 2: this game.
Speaker 8: Vealonzuela Losorda. Slowly, all the Dodger blue family up there
Speaker 8: was looking down, and you know what they did, the
Speaker 8: same thing they did. They had to get the cold.
Speaker 8: They were gonna get them out, get their relievers, get
Speaker 8: some runs, and we worked.
Speaker 2: It out, no doubt about it. Appreciated, Oscar, thanks for
Speaker 2: checking in tonight. Eight sixty six nine eighty seven two
Speaker 2: five seventy eight sixty six nine eighty seven two five seventy.
Speaker 2: Alex in East La. I know it's popping off at
Speaker 2: East LA right now. I'm watching the TV. Alex.
Speaker 28: Oh my god, you should have seen the troll traffic
Speaker 28: just to get out of each other. A man, it's
Speaker 28: this crazy big care spopping and everything is just a celebration,
Speaker 28: no doubt.
Speaker 2: How happy about this win? Alex? Tell us where you
Speaker 2: were when the Dodgers cleansed. Who were you with tonight
Speaker 2: celebrating with I.
Speaker 28: Was with my cowork in Montabello watching the game.
Speaker 7: I had just left work.
Speaker 28: You know, I was disappointed them losing five and Oero
Speaker 28: and my new coworker is a Yankee fan, so you know,
Speaker 28: that's not a good start way to start. And you know,
Speaker 28: my co workers like, let's just watch the game. You know,
Speaker 28: there's nothing around to watch it.
Speaker 7: And it was.
Speaker 28: For them to come back five runs and tie it
Speaker 28: up and then just lead up to Walker Year singing
Speaker 28: the game. Man, that was that was incredible, man. And
Speaker 28: you know it's like I was lucky. I'm not, you know,
Speaker 28: old enough to remember eighty eight, my father and me
Speaker 28: witnessed the twenty twenty two meters of championship. But obviously
Speaker 28: everyone's all salty about it. And then unfortunately, you know,
Speaker 28: during the World christ and everything, I can't celebrate with
Speaker 28: my father this World championship. But because of him, I
Speaker 28: became a baseball fan of Dodger fans, and you know,
Speaker 28: all of us are celebrating no matter what.
Speaker 2: That about it. Alex appreciate the phone call. What a
Speaker 2: great night for Dodger fans across so I THN California.
Speaker 2: A World Series championship over the New York Yankees, a
Speaker 2: seven to sixth victory. Let's go back out to New York.
Speaker 2: Dave Roberts at the podium talking to the media. It's
Speaker 2: here with the Dodger skipper now, a two time World
Speaker 2: Series champion manager has to say.
Speaker 29: Dave, how can you describe what that game was like
Speaker 29: to go through and how you felt at the end.
Speaker 30: Yeah, I definitely didn't plan it out this way. Certainly
Speaker 30: a lot of emotions from the way it started to
Speaker 30: certainly the way it finished. And I'm just so grateful
Speaker 30: to be in this chair. And you know what our
Speaker 30: guys did, the resilience, the fight that they had. Certainly
Speaker 30: all the momentum was on the side of the Yankees,
Speaker 30: and Garrett was throwing the heck out of the baseball
Speaker 30: and for us to you know, just keep scratching and clawing,
Speaker 30: and you know, we were just kind of to the
Speaker 30: last guy available, and so to see what Walker did
Speaker 30: what Blake did, all those guys and then the big
Speaker 30: at bats to get us back in the game was
Speaker 30: just huge.
Speaker 29: Well, what was that fifth ending like to go through
Speaker 29: when they started making miss stakes, Like, could your guys
Speaker 29: kind of just sense like that was the opportunity to
Speaker 29: make something happen.
Speaker 30: Yeah, we did, we did, you know, And obviously you
Speaker 30: know the right the inning before Aaron makes a great
Speaker 30: playoff of Freddy's bad and just you know, just didn't
Speaker 30: make a play right there, and we just got a
Speaker 30: break on the covering first base, and so we got
Speaker 30: a couple extra outs, and you know, it was just good.
Speaker 30: You know, when you get a good give a good
Speaker 30: team extra outs, and it was just great for us
Speaker 30: to take advantage of it.
Speaker 31: The last rower left Chelsea.
Speaker 2: How long was Walker going to be able to go?
Speaker 2: Was there a situation where he was it.
Speaker 31: Just an inning with the side day thing.
Speaker 30: It was one inning, and so that's why, you know,
Speaker 30: it was huge that Blake could get Stanton and then
Speaker 30: punch out Rizzo right there.
Speaker 12: You know.
Speaker 30: So that was just our last bullet in the sense.
Speaker 32: Of with the lead up from your right when you
Speaker 32: were game planning, did Walker come up at any point
Speaker 32: or did that happen within the game?
Speaker 2: That happened within the.
Speaker 18: Game seventh inning.
Speaker 30: He just said that he's going to be available, and
Speaker 30: you know, I didn't see him see that even coming
Speaker 30: into play, but obviously as a game went out, had
Speaker 30: it played on, we had to keep the game close,
Speaker 30: and our guys were fighting, and so I just felt that,
Speaker 30: you know, at that point in time, I was going
Speaker 30: to be all in.
Speaker 32: Seem someone was self explanatory, But what about him makes
Speaker 32: you confident in handing him the ball in a spot
Speaker 32: like that when he's.
Speaker 30: I just think that the experience, the pedigree, we were
Speaker 30: all in at that point in time, and he wanted
Speaker 30: the baseball, and I just felt that he wasn't going
Speaker 30: to run from the moment, and I just felt he
Speaker 30: was the best.
Speaker 31: Option third row on your left.
Speaker 33: If so pitching was what was your plan? If the
Speaker 33: game had gone to extra innings.
Speaker 30: I would have probably had Hudson pitched the tenth and
Speaker 30: then Kispirius, who threw two innings fifty something pitches though
Speaker 30: the eleventh.
Speaker 34: Yeah, good Clinton right in front of you, Hey, Doug,
Speaker 34: Mookie had such a workman like day to day in
Speaker 34: terms of beating, beating the ball out of her space,
Speaker 34: getting to go ahead run on the sack fly. Can
Speaker 34: you tell me a little bit about his playoff performance,
Speaker 34: not just tonight but in general as he's done everything
Speaker 34: he's done.
Speaker 30: No, it's great. You know, he's one of the guys
Speaker 30: I'm really for because, you know, going into the postseason,
Speaker 30: that's all people were talking about is how he didn't perform,
Speaker 30: and you know, to be able to kind of block
Speaker 30: out all that noise and still focus on helping us
Speaker 30: win baseball games. There's not a guy that cares more.
Speaker 30: And he's a very talented player, and hopefully we can
Speaker 30: keep this narrative quiet for a little bit because he
Speaker 30: did everything and played both sides of the baseball. You know,
Speaker 30: he made some big plays defensively and offensively. He came
Speaker 30: up big.
Speaker 18: Russ.
Speaker 35: They've this season started off what you call rocky, with
Speaker 35: your situation in Korea, Mookie bricks hand, the starting pitching,
Speaker 35: Freddy's ankle. Is there a point throughout the year where
Speaker 35: you wonder if it's all too much and you guys
Speaker 35: can get through it? And what point did you realize
Speaker 35: that this group could get to this point?
Speaker 30: Well, you know what, we did go through a lot
Speaker 30: russ but I'll still say that we still had the
Speaker 30: best record all of baseball this year, and so it
Speaker 30: wasn't easy, but our guys fought and played every day
Speaker 30: the right way, played to win. There's a lot of
Speaker 30: you know, backfilling on talent because of you know, injury,
Speaker 30: a lot of young players cut their teeth, which is
Speaker 30: which is good. But you know, one thing is that
Speaker 30: we just kept going. And so even in the postseason,
Speaker 30: you know, I don't think anyone had us picked. You know,
Speaker 30: I don't think that has picked to get out of
Speaker 30: the first series. So you know, for us to go
Speaker 30: out there and fight and scratching claw and win eleven
Speaker 30: games in October, that's a credit to our guys.
Speaker 2: All right, there's Jill Robertson talking to the media. I
Speaker 2: have to imagine they used that whole narrative of the
Speaker 2: Padres were the better team going into that NLDS and
Speaker 2: the Dodgers. We're gonna have a tough time against that
Speaker 2: team and the lack of starting pitching. I have to
Speaker 2: believe they use that as maybe a rallying cry as
Speaker 2: a group collectively, even falling behind in that series. The
Speaker 2: way they did, and to come back and win it
Speaker 2: because nobody projected the Dodgers to win that series. You know,
Speaker 2: eight out of ten different analysts out there projected the
Speaker 2: Padres to advance to the NLCS, not the Dodgers, So
Speaker 2: they weren't even the favorites by a lot of people's
Speaker 2: minds going into that series. Yet they won that series
Speaker 2: in five. They beat the Mets and the NLCS, and
Speaker 2: now they defeat the New York Yankees, the best team
Speaker 2: in the American League in twenty twenty four. The Dodgers
Speaker 2: the best team in baseball in twenty twenty four. With
Speaker 2: a Game five win in the World Series tonight, a
Speaker 2: seven to sixth victory over the New York Yankees. We're
Speaker 2: gonna hear from Shoeyotani. Coming up, we'll hear from the MVP,
Speaker 2: Freddie Freeman, who tonight drove in a couple of runs,
Speaker 2: a huge part of this Dodgers five run inning. Again,
Speaker 2: the door was opened by the bad defense for the
Speaker 2: New York Yankees. Aaron Judge does not make errors. Tonight,
Speaker 2: he boxed the ball on a line drive to center field,
Speaker 2: a play he makes ninety nine times out of one
Speaker 2: hundred and the one time he doesn't, it opens the
Speaker 2: door for the Dodgers. There in the fifth inning, a
Speaker 2: ground ball to shortstop and it's completely boxed and thrown
Speaker 2: away by Anthony Vulpi, opening up the door again for
Speaker 2: the inning to continue. In the fifth, three batters later,
Speaker 2: with two outs, Mookie Betts an infield single scores a run.
Speaker 2: Freddie Freeman a single scores two. Tay Oscar Hernandez doubles
Speaker 2: off the wall in center field to score two and
Speaker 2: tie the game at five. Two out nightmares are what
Speaker 2: the Dodgers are all about. When they put the head
Speaker 2: down at night baseball fans and there's two outs, the
Speaker 2: Dodgers are your nightmare. And they aren't nightmares for pitching
Speaker 2: stats with two outs the way they produce and score
Speaker 2: and don't give up with two outs. And tonight they
Speaker 2: scored five runs on four hits, helped up by two
Speaker 2: airs and miss q by Garrett Cole and Anthony Rizzo
Speaker 2: to get the Dodgers that first run on the infield
Speaker 2: single for Mookie Betts. So thank you New York Yankees.
Speaker 2: But a great job by the Dodgers to get the
Speaker 2: momentum back in the game. It's a tied up at
Speaker 2: five and to go on and win at seven to six.
Speaker 2: The bullpen cannot say enough about what they did tonight, collectively,
Speaker 2: what they did this series, collectively, what they did in
Speaker 2: the NLCS, collectively, what the bullpen did in that bullpen
Speaker 2: game in Game four against the Padres in San Diego.
Speaker 2: The dogs down the bullpen were barking all October, and
Speaker 2: now they're barking a championship as the Dodgers are your
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four World Series champions. Just let that sit
Speaker 2: in for a minute. How good does that sound? Twenty
Speaker 2: twenty four World Series champion, Los Angeles Dodgers. Sounds pretty cool?
Speaker 2: Matt in North Carolina. Wow, it's late in North Carolina,
Speaker 2: but you're celebrating the Dodgers' victory long distance. How you
Speaker 2: do it?
Speaker 10: Met?
Speaker 3: Hey? Tim? How's it going?
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's very late here in North I think it's
Speaker 7: like two am or something, but I mean it's it's unbelievable. Man,
Speaker 7: watch the game with my son, and I'll tell you.
Speaker 7: I had flights to La leaving Friday for Game six,
Speaker 7: and I had my mind right when it was down.
Speaker 17: Five to nothing. I thought, man, we're going and then
Speaker 17: this team's It just keeps on fighting, keeps on fighting.
Speaker 17: And I'm glad to be celebrating this right now in
Speaker 17: North Carolina and not going to LA but I will
Speaker 17: be there for the ring ceremony in March when we
Speaker 17: play the Tigers.
Speaker 2: That's gonna be a fun night or fun day, whatever

Speaker 2: Here on this World Series edition of Postgame Dodger Talking,
Speaker 2: we're celebrating the eighth World Series championship in franchise history.
Speaker 2: Let's go to Craig and Long Beach. Craig, Welcome to
Speaker 2: Dodger Talk on your home of the twenty twenty four
Speaker 2: World Series champions How you.
Speaker 15: Doing, brother? I have got wo when I am cold,
Speaker 15: I have got warm when I'm hot. But Yankee fan,
Speaker 15: this is the one thing that you chumse just think
Speaker 15: got It feels so good to be World champions once again,
Speaker 15: my friend, is it not?
Speaker 2: It is a great day, my friend, Craig, it is
Speaker 2: a fat day.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what, dude.
Speaker 15: I have been listening to you guys since first day
Speaker 15: of the first exhibition game of the season, and that's
Speaker 15: how I do my Dodgor baseball. I'll watch the ball
Speaker 15: game once in a while, it's on every night, but
Speaker 15: I prefer listening to the radio and I have ever
Speaker 15: since the great Vince Scully, you know, has been such
Speaker 15: a huge part of my life. And was such a
Speaker 15: huge part of my life. And Vinnie, I know you're
Speaker 15: looking down and hopefully this pleases you, as it does
Speaker 15: please me to know that.
Speaker 10: You are pleased.
Speaker 3: So it's just a great night.
Speaker 15: Man. I'm so excited. I'm so happy for everybody, especially
Speaker 15: Dave Roberts. Man. This guy just gets endless garbage about
Speaker 15: every move he makes. It's just ridiculous the nitpicking that
Speaker 15: goes on from Dodger fans, a lot of whom don't
Speaker 15: even know what the heck they're talking about most of
Speaker 15: the time, and they're just spouting off bs and it's
Speaker 15: it's ridiculous. David roberts has proved himself to be a
Speaker 15: genius mind on the baseball field. I don't care who
Speaker 15: you are, I don't care what you say. He is
Speaker 15: a great manager and I'm so happy that we got him,
Speaker 15: and I am so happy that he's still here and uh,
Speaker 15: you know, pulling the strings for a world championship now. Man,
Speaker 15: no doubt about its Manager of the Year one hundred, don't.
Speaker 2: I don't know if he wins the award in the
Speaker 2: National League. We'll see when that all comes out here
Speaker 2: in the next couple of weeks. As those individual awards,
Speaker 2: Manager of the Year, Rookie of the Year, saw young
Speaker 2: award winner in MVP all get announced now that the
Speaker 2: World Series is complete and the Dodgers are your World
Speaker 2: Series champs by the way, uh, but we'll see if
Speaker 2: he wins Manager of the Year. Certainly this takes Dave
Speaker 2: Roberts to a different level as far as great managers
Speaker 2: all time in baseball. Two time now World Series champion
Speaker 2: Tomylesorda won two World Series championships as manager of the Dodgers.
Speaker 2: To go to the postseason now nine times as manager,
Speaker 2: to go to now what four World Series in nine
Speaker 2: years and winning two of those, that's pretty impressive. I mean,
Speaker 2: Bobby Cox gets heralded for what he did at Atlanta
Speaker 2: over a fifteen year stretch and the divisional titles they won.
Speaker 2: He won one World Series down in Atlanta. Dave Roberts
Speaker 2: has now won two World Series Championships as a manager,
Speaker 2: three as a player. And what he's done doing it
Speaker 2: with different groups of guys, doing it during COVID, going
Speaker 2: to World Series appearances in seventeen and eighteen, having won
Speaker 2: stolen by the Houston Astros who cheated to a twenty
Speaker 2: seventeen World Series victory. It's very impressive to see what
Speaker 2: Dave Roberts has done. I know he takes a lot
Speaker 2: of incoming from fans after losses and defeats and into
Speaker 2: seasons like two years ago and last year, but it
Speaker 2: is hard to argue with what he has done, and
Speaker 2: especially this year and especially this postseason, to navigate the
Speaker 2: way he did with no starting pitching outside of Yamamoto,
Speaker 2: Buehler and Flaherty. And let's be honest with you, it's
Speaker 2: just us talking, right, how many of you thought Walker
Speaker 2: Buehler was going to be a part of this rotation?
Speaker 2: Even he said it with David Vassay, Colin, can we
Speaker 2: find that real quick Walker Buehler? If you missed it
Speaker 2: in the Clubhouse show, it was short, it was sweet.
Speaker 2: It was David Vassay with Walker Buehler. And remember Walker
Speaker 2: Buehler coming back from Tommy John surgery. Walker Buehler had
Speaker 2: to figure out his timing again, his mechanics again. He
Speaker 2: had the hip issue. He was away from the team
Speaker 2: trying to figure out where he fits in to this rotation.
Speaker 2: Where does he fit into this pitching staff? What does
Speaker 2: Walker Buehler look like? Moving forward with this Dodgers team
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four, we didn't know. And then when
Speaker 2: he did come back, he was one in six in
Speaker 2: the regular season, and we get to October and injuries
Speaker 2: to just absolutely decimate the Dodger starting rotation. And because
Speaker 2: of that, they need arms, They need guys who have
Speaker 2: battled before as starters, and they need Walker Buehler. And
Speaker 2: Walker Buehler is a postseason pitcher, and we've seen it
Speaker 2: on display in the years past, and we saw it
Speaker 2: again this year in the NLDS, even though he got
Speaker 2: rocked up a little bit by the San Diego Padres,
Speaker 2: battle back with three shutout innings afterwards. What he did
Speaker 2: in the NLCS, and certainly what he did in Game
Speaker 2: three for the Dodgers in a victory, and then seeing
Speaker 2: Number twenty one Walker freaking Bueller come out of the
Speaker 2: bullpen tonight in the ninth inning to close out this
Speaker 2: World Series was pretty darn impressive. To see him come
Speaker 2: out and take that role of like what Clayton Kershaw
Speaker 2: did that in the twenty eighteen NLDS, a starter on
Speaker 2: short rest, coming out and closing out a game like
Speaker 2: you did against the Washington Nationals in Washington, DC. Walker
Speaker 2: Buehler wanted the ball. You heard him, you're Dave Roberts.
Speaker 2: This wasn't the plan. Walker Buehler is the Game seven starter,
Speaker 2: but the Dodgers found themselves in a situation where they
Speaker 2: took the lead. Was it was tied at the time,
Speaker 2: and he said, if you need me, I'm going down
Speaker 2: the bullpen. Call on me if you will, and the
Speaker 2: Dodgers took the lead. Blake tried and got the eighth
Speaker 2: and the ninth inning. Dave Roberts went to Walker Bueller
Speaker 2: and he got the save in Game five of the
Speaker 2: World Series. All that I just mentioned, you have that
Speaker 2: as the background. Didn't even know if he was gonna
Speaker 2: be around the postseason roster. He is because of injuries.
Speaker 2: Here's Walker Bueler postgame with David Walker.
Speaker 33: Freak game Buehler, this is what legends are made of.
Speaker 2: Walker. When did you know you were going to the bullpen?
Speaker 28: I went in the sixth I think I told Doc,
Speaker 28: if you need nobody out.
Speaker 33: There, what does it mean to you to come through
Speaker 33: when the team needed you the most?
Speaker 2: And everything?
Speaker 29: Man, I thought I was gonna get released off this.
Speaker 11: I don't think you're gonna get released now.
Speaker 2: No, well, we'll see.
Speaker 3: I'm trying to enjoy this.
Speaker 2: See you later, short and sweet. Walker Bueller celebrating enjoying
Speaker 2: the World Series championship in as he said, he didn't
Speaker 2: know if he was gonna get released if they'd give
Speaker 2: him an opportunity in October after one win during the
Speaker 2: regular season, and the Dodgers believed in him. Credit again
Speaker 2: to Dave Roberts, Andrew Freeman, Brandon Gomes, Mark Pryor, Connor McGinnis,
Speaker 2: the entire coaching staff for believing constantly, and Walker Bueller. Hey,
Speaker 2: he's gonna figure it out. He's gonna get right. We
Speaker 2: believe in him, and he was absolutely awesome. In October
Speaker 2: eight six, six ninety seven, two five seventy, Rick and
Speaker 2: San Diego checks in here on postgame Dodger Talk, your
Speaker 2: World Series edition of Dodger Talk.
Speaker 19: Hey, what's going on?
Speaker 36: I mean, I love you know, I got I got
Speaker 36: to uh near stsu the bar over there, watching the
Speaker 36: game from first pace to last. You know, it's kind
Speaker 36: of disappointing seeing the Padres fans, you know, rooting for
Speaker 36: the Yankees, you know, but seeing the Dodgers battle back,
Speaker 36: you know exactly what we all expected them to do.
Speaker 36: You know, they played even down here in San Diego.
Speaker 36: I watched every single game because on my MLB app
Speaker 36: that's how much I love the Dodgers and my bar
Speaker 36: that I normally go to every time the Dodgers win,
Speaker 36: Randy Newman comes up on the jukebox.
Speaker 10: You know, so.
Speaker 36: Everyone knows, oh man, the Dodgers must have won today.
Speaker 36: I make sure everybody knows about that. And then this
Speaker 36: team in general, from you know, the beginning of the
Speaker 36: year to the end of the year.
Speaker 10: You know, the folks that played in the.
Speaker 36: Postseason, but not even that, you know, seeing just time
Speaker 36: out of time, battling back, going back to Colorado when
Speaker 36: Kaoskar had the home run, Jason Hayward having the home run.
Speaker 22: This team had the.
Speaker 36: Grit and they totally deserve this so great World Series win.
Speaker 36: Love seeing it down in San Diego. And you know,
Speaker 36: I told my Padre fans friends, you know, hey, at least.
Speaker 22: Y'all lost to the champs.
Speaker 36: And he can't be that, he can't be disappointed in
Speaker 36: that so great win Dodgers, and I can't wait till
Speaker 36: next year.
Speaker 2: No doubt about it. Rick appreciate the phone call. Appreciate
Speaker 2: the phone call. Love that you're celebrating all the time

Speaker 35: Mentally, what was this year like for you and how
Speaker 35: are you able to to get to this point?
Speaker 38: We were able to get through the regular season, I
Speaker 38: think because of the strength of this team, this organization
Speaker 38: and the success of the postseason is very similar to
Speaker 38: how we were able to, you know, pull it off

Speaker 2: on this World series edition of Dodger Talk on a
Speaker 2: FI seventy LA Sports. Hi, Andrew, wells up, guys.
Speaker 19: We're having so much fun out here. Just left back,
Speaker 19: go Park. I just want to give a shout out
Speaker 19: to my dad down Orange County with some of the
Speaker 19: Dodgers games we've been back in the day. Now you
Speaker 19: guys were so happy. Got to give a shout out
Speaker 19: to the boys who didn't get the roster for the
Speaker 19: world side but still got it. Miguel Vargas probably the
Speaker 19: only World Cities champion to be on the worst team
Speaker 19: in baseball for so long, and Manny Machado didn't get
Speaker 19: a ring, but Ryan Yarbrough did and they're here. But
Speaker 19: I want to give a shout out to my boys,
Speaker 19: Jack and Alex. We did it tonight. I've been waiting
Speaker 19: for a Yankees Dodgers World Series my whole life, ten
Speaker 19: years in New York and finally we did it. Get
Speaker 19: to celebrate.
Speaker 2: Now, let's keep it rolling, all right, Andrew appreciate it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Guys like Ryan Yarborough huge pieces of this Dodgers team
Speaker 2: during the regular season, helping soak up innings as a
Speaker 2: middle reliever, bulke innings guy at opener. Uh, certainly, he
Speaker 2: was a major factor in this team over the course
Speaker 2: of one sixty two. It really takes everybody, to think
Speaker 2: it just takes twenty six guys who are on this
Speaker 2: World Series roster and that's it. Those are the only
Speaker 2: guys that contributed. You're crazy. It's taken everybody. Little plays,
Speaker 2: small plays, big roles, small roles, big appearance to small appearances.
Speaker 2: What at bat minia bats. It's been a huge, huge
Speaker 2: group of players that have contributed to this Dodgers team
Speaker 2: and a World Series championship team. Let's go back out
Speaker 2: to New York. The MVP of the World Series, Freddie Freeman,
Speaker 2: talking to the media.
Speaker 40: I don't think that was on the script of how
Speaker 40: we started off this year, but I think sometimes when
Speaker 40: those things are going to happen, it just rallies a
Speaker 40: group of guys together. When you start supporting a teammate
Speaker 40: in his first year like we did, for him to
Speaker 40: go out there and have the greatest season I think
Speaker 40: of all time, pretty special. Seems like we hit every
Speaker 40: speed month possible over the course of this year, and
Speaker 40: to overcome what we did as a group of guys,
Speaker 40: it's special. And this is what we start out to
Speaker 40: do every single spring training is to win a championship.
Speaker 40: And I think it's the hardest thing to do in
Speaker 40: sports is because you just never know what's going to happen.
Speaker 40: I mean, we were down two wide in the NLDS
Speaker 40: and it easily could have gotten away from us. And
Speaker 40: to come back and win those two games and then
Speaker 40: keep it going like we did, it's just a special
Speaker 40: group of guys.
Speaker 34: Stay there with Clinton, Freddy, you personally have also had
Speaker 34: quite the year. What have you learned about yourself this season?
Speaker 40: Yeah, I mean, I would say a lot in so
Speaker 40: many different ways. I wish I'd never had to go
Speaker 40: through what we did as a family. But ultimately, Maximus
Speaker 40: is doing really really well right now. He's a special boy.
Speaker 40: But it has been a grind for three months, it
Speaker 40: really has. It's been a lot, and then obviously with
Speaker 40: the injuries at the end, it makes it all worth
Speaker 40: it kind of in the end. I mean, I'll never
Speaker 40: compare Maximus into to baseball.
Speaker 24: I won't.
Speaker 40: It's just two separate things. But with him doing really
Speaker 40: well now, it does mean a little bit extra love.
Speaker 31: Questions for Freddy. We'll go to third row on our
Speaker 31: left here right here, Hey.
Speaker 33: Freddy, excuse me, when you're on a run like the
Speaker 33: one you're on during the World Series, just can you
Speaker 33: best describe just like what that feeling is like when
Speaker 33: you're at the plate and you're as locked in as
Speaker 33: you were for the last week.
Speaker 40: Yeah, I mean, and asked this question a couple of times.
Speaker 40: It's you don't really think about it when you're up there,
Speaker 40: things seem to be slowing down. That's kind of what
Speaker 40: you're just trying to do. And I think obviously experience
Speaker 40: definitely helps in this situation.
Speaker 22: But when you.
Speaker 40: I did a lot of work in between the NLCS
Speaker 40: and the World Series, and thankfully my ankle got into
Speaker 40: a good spot where I could work on my swing,
Speaker 40: work on and I found a queue that really worked
Speaker 40: for me, and I was able to slow things down.
Speaker 40: I mean, all you're trying to do is swing up strikes,
Speaker 40: take balls, and hit the mistakes, and thankfully I was
Speaker 40: able to do.
Speaker 18: That for five games.

Speaker 40: and be in certain situations because of the group of guys,
Speaker 40: the organization just from top to bottom. To be put
Speaker 40: into a situation, I mean, I got asked about the
Speaker 40: rb RBIs are because there's guys on base, you know,
