Speaker 1: Now your host walking you up to first pitch. It's
Speaker 1: Tim kayse.
Speaker 2: Hi everybody, and we'll welcome in to Morongo Casino. Dodgers
Speaker 2: on Deck. I hope you're having a great Sunday morning.
Speaker 2: You're a world champion in Los Angeles. Dodgers in Philadelphia
Speaker 2: for a three game set against the Fight and Pills.
Speaker 2: Dodgers nine to one on the season after their first
Speaker 2: loss of the year on Friday night.
Speaker 3: The Dodgers bounce back.
Speaker 2: Yesterday they get the w in today they go for
Speaker 2: this series win with Tyler Glass now on the mound.
Speaker 2: First pitch coming up at ten thirty five. Coming up
Speaker 2: over the next sixty minutes here on Marago Casino, Dodgers
Speaker 2: on Deck, you'll hear from the manager himself, Dave Roberts'
Speaker 2: pregame thoughts will dive deeper into this pitching matchup. David
Speaker 2: Vasse goes one on one with Tommy Edmund. We got
Speaker 2: your Dodgers magical moment, your prize picks, double play of
Speaker 2: the day. Shortly, we'll visit with Kirsten Watson. In a
Speaker 2: couple of minutes, we'll send it out to the Gallpin
Speaker 2: Motors broadcast booth with Tim Neverett and Rick Monday.
Speaker 3: Well yesterday Broke.
Speaker 2: Sasaki got the start, his third in a Dodger uniform,
Speaker 2: looking to get better after his first two starts had
Speaker 2: some control issues. The Dodgers, though well, they fell behind
Speaker 2: one to nothing after Sazaki gave up back to back singles.
Speaker 2: In the first struck out Bryce Harper, but then an
Speaker 2: RBI ground out from Alec Baum gave the Phillies a
Speaker 2: one nothing lead. But not to panic, the Dodgers offense
Speaker 2: would help out Sazaki in the second.
Speaker 3: Kik with the bomb.
Speaker 4: P k Hernandez struck out three times in the game
Speaker 4: last night. At the time, run in scoring position here,
Speaker 4: two out, he'll sway and he'll drive one down the
Speaker 4: left field side.
Speaker 5: This ball is deep, this ball is gone. That's a
Speaker 5: home run.
Speaker 4: Key k Hernandez has given the Dodgers a two to
Speaker 4: one lead with a home run just inside the left
Speaker 4: field foul pool.
Speaker 2: Two run home run for a KYK number two on
Speaker 2: the season. Make that number three for Kyk. As the
Speaker 2: Dodgers jumped out to a two to one lead. Rokies
Speaker 2: Zaki would settle in four innings, one run, three hits,
Speaker 2: struck out for only two walks, sixty eight pitches, forty
Speaker 2: one for strikes. A much better outing for Rokie Susaki,
Speaker 2: who turned it over to the Dodgers' bullpen, and they
Speaker 2: did what they've been doing this year, put up zeros
Speaker 2: on this scoreboard. The Dodgers offense tacked on an insurance
Speaker 2: run in this six as Conforto went deep.
Speaker 4: Really enjoyed watching him when he was in a Dodger uniform.
Speaker 4: Still one of the best smooth shortstops in the game
Speaker 4: with everything he does. Michael Conforto swings hits a drive
Speaker 4: to right. This ball heading back to the wall, and
Speaker 4: this ball's gone. It's a home run for Conforto. Michael
Speaker 4: Confordo with a second Dodger home run and the Dodgers
Speaker 4: now lead hit three to one. Well, he jumped all
Speaker 4: over the cutter that was left right down the middle
Speaker 4: by Nola, and Confordo hammered it and all the right
Speaker 4: fielder Castianos could do was fade back and.
Speaker 2: Watch Michael Conforto with the solo home run of the
Speaker 2: six is second if the season, his fifth RBI Dodgers
Speaker 2: of three to one. We mentioned Salzaki's the four innings
Speaker 2: one run, three hits Anthony Bonda scoreless inning, Ben Casparius
Speaker 2: two shutout innings, Alex Vesia struck out three in the
Speaker 2: eighth inning, and then Tanner Scott came in and pitched
Speaker 2: the ninth as the Dodgers beat the Phillies three to one.
Speaker 2: Anthony Bonda gets the winning relieve, Tanner Scott gets his
Speaker 2: third save of the season. Aaron Nola gets tagged with
Speaker 2: the loss. He falls to zero to two. Dodgers now
Speaker 2: nine to one on the season, and today they go
Speaker 2: for the series win in Philadelphia. Tyler Glass now on
Speaker 2: the mountain and with more we head out to the
Speaker 2: Gallopin Motors Broadcast booth and say hello to Tim Nevert
Speaker 2: and Rick Monday.
Speaker 3: Guys.
Speaker 4: Thanks to have another overcast day here in Philadelphia. Temperature
Speaker 4: is cool in the low fifties right now, win blowing
Speaker 4: in from center field. But things actually have improved since
Speaker 4: earlier this morning. The tarp is off the field, the
Speaker 4: players have had an opportunity to warm up and get
Speaker 4: ready for this one, and we are on time for
Speaker 4: baseball between the Dodgers and the Phillies, the rubber game
Speaker 4: of this three game set. Christopher Sanchez, an All Star
Speaker 4: last year, left hander pitching against the Dodgers. Tyler Glasnow,
Speaker 4: who had an outstanding outing for his first start on
Speaker 4: the thirty first of March against the Braves, a winner
Speaker 4: last night three to one. The Dodgers got it done
Speaker 4: Keyke Hernandez home run that ultimately provided the winning margin
Speaker 4: and Michael Confordo a little insurance later on. But the
Speaker 4: lineup today doesn't look all that different except for Tommy
Speaker 4: Eben moving into the three spot and Tiascar Hernandez moving
Speaker 4: down to four and Will Smith back in there.
Speaker 6: You know, Timmy samp just seemed to look at the
Speaker 6: Dodgers and how they've really reached the nine and one
Speaker 6: level to open up the season. Seven of the nine
Speaker 6: victories have been come from behind, including yesterday, So it's
Speaker 6: kind of a late any ball club. They need to
Speaker 6: put some runs on the board a little bit sooner
Speaker 6: than that. But still, all in all, they come in
Speaker 6: leading the Western Division. What is a little surprising look
Speaker 6: at the standings and see the San Francisco Giants now
Speaker 6: are just a game behind the Dodgers. Even the Dodgers
Speaker 6: nine and one off to a very good start San
Speaker 6: Diego game and a half back Arizona who's hitting the
Speaker 6: ball very well, putting runs on the board three and
Speaker 6: a half. And for the Rockies they can't wait till
Speaker 6: next year. It's going to be a long season for them.
Speaker 6: So in this series now Dodgers have a chance to
Speaker 6: win it, something they had not done with regularity in
Speaker 6: this ballpark, in particular against the Phillies. And the Phillies
Speaker 6: by the way leading the Eastern Division the National League.
Speaker 4: Well, it's been the home run that's been the big
Speaker 4: thing for the Dodgers. Sixty four percent of their runs
Speaker 4: have come by way of the long ball. Thirty two
Speaker 4: of the fifty runs they've scored so far this year
Speaker 4: have come as a result of the home run. And
Speaker 4: when you look at keyk Hernandez for example, he's three
Speaker 4: for twenty six on the season, all three hits home runs.
Speaker 6: Yeah, he's blasted the ball. The Dodgers' second highest as
Speaker 6: far as the number of home runs New York Yankees
Speaker 6: had twenty five on that end of it. What is
Speaker 6: little surprising is the Dodgers are not even right smack
Speaker 6: down in the middle of the pack for team averages.
Speaker 6: As you're relating to kick a Hernanez with the low
Speaker 6: percentage of base hits versus the number of bets. The
Speaker 6: Dodgers are eighteenth in team average. You look at the Phillies,
Speaker 6: they are fourth in the Nation League in being able
Speaker 6: to do that, actually fourth in Major League Baseball. But
Speaker 6: then you start to look at the era of the Dodgers,
Speaker 6: the best in baseball. It's under two runs every nine innings.
Speaker 4: So game number eleven today the Dodgers' best record in
Speaker 4: their franchise all time history through eleven games. Nineteen fifty
Speaker 4: five ten and one, nineteen forty ten and one, and
Speaker 4: the nineteen nineteen Brooklyn Robbins nine one and one. There
Speaker 4: won't be a tie here today, so they're trying to
Speaker 4: tie the nineteen forty and nineteen fifty five Brooklyn Dodgers.
Speaker 6: Well, the Dodgers get through your legs loose, because as
Speaker 6: you mentioned right at the onset, yes, it's chilly here
Speaker 6: and it's not going to be any warmer at all
Speaker 6: in DC, at least for the next couple of days,
Speaker 6: and is going to be continuing on that weather. I
Speaker 6: gave you the official terms yesterday. What is gonna be
Speaker 6: like today? It'll be the same way tomorrow, Yucky.
Speaker 4: Tyler glads Now one and all against Christopher Sanchez, the
Speaker 4: left hander no decisions his second start of the season
Speaker 4: as well. Dodgers nine and one, Phillies six and two.
Speaker 4: First pitch coming up.

Speaker 2: game set in Philadelphia. Then it's off to our nation's capital.
Speaker 2: Tyler Glass now Christopher Sanchez. A pitching matchup. First pitch
Speaker 2: coming up, but ten thirty five.
Speaker 3: This is the.
Speaker 5: Otani rewhy Oh.
Speaker 3: It's a quiet day for show.
Speaker 2: Hey Otani Yesterday in the lead spot, the Dodgers designated
Speaker 2: hitter Oh for three, dig get on base via a walk.
Speaker 2: No stolen bases or stolen base attempts.
Speaker 3: Dodgers Zoh.
Speaker 2: Despite an over day from shoe Heyo Tani got a
Speaker 2: couple of base hits from Mookie Betts. Max Munsey goes
Speaker 2: three for four, Keiky Hernandez goes deep, Michael Conforto goes deep.
Speaker 2: The rest of the lineup picks up the Dodgers in
Speaker 2: a three to one win over the Phillies.
Speaker 1: This is Kirston's Corner with Kirston, Watson.
Speaker 2: And Kirson now joins us from Philadelphia. Brought to you
Speaker 2: by Cars for Kids. Ready to donate your old car?
Speaker 2: Call eight seven seven Cars for Kids right now, friendly
Speaker 2: agents standing boy to take your donation. That's Cars with
Speaker 2: the K to donate your car. Yesterday Roki Susaki his
Speaker 2: third start in the Big LEAs Kirsten, and his best
Speaker 2: so far.
Speaker 7: Yeah, definitely his best so far and really a huge
Speaker 7: confidence booster. I mean even with talking to the guys,
Speaker 7: I loved what Max Munths he said after the game
Speaker 7: that after that first inning, and we know how it
Speaker 7: started with those two hits putting some traffic on the basis,
Speaker 7: but for him to get out of that then to
Speaker 7: have a clean inning after inning after that, I mean
Speaker 7: Max was saying that after that first inning he could
Speaker 7: just see his demeanor change on the mound and those
Speaker 7: are the little things. Look, it's going to take time
Speaker 7: for him to have more success in this league, to
Speaker 7: continue to build his confidence. But to see how he
Speaker 7: handled playing in a state m like Citizen Banks Park,
Speaker 7: where there is a lot of energy and there is
Speaker 7: a lot of I think trash talk is an appropriate
Speaker 7: thing to say. This atmosphere is tough to play in.
Speaker 7: But to see not only how he handled that, but
Speaker 7: having his stuff in a good spot. He had felt
Speaker 7: that in his last bullpen few days ago. Coming into
Speaker 7: this start, he focused a little bit more on a
Speaker 7: few things with his lower half and he felt like
Speaker 7: mechanically he was in a really good spot. So just
Speaker 7: to see how the stuff played against a very very
Speaker 7: talented Phillies lineup, it was huge for Roki and it
Speaker 7: was huge for this team as well.
Speaker 2: We love things that are trending in social media. We
Speaker 2: could go with Torpedo bats Karist and now it's the
Speaker 2: new Dodger celebration.
Speaker 7: Yes it, I mean I feel like it's really show Hey.
Speaker 7: Otani's like skincare line that is now trending, but it's
Speaker 7: from that. Celebration is from a It's from a commercial
Speaker 7: that he's done, and he has done so many of them,
Speaker 7: and this specifically is a skincare commercial that he was
Speaker 7: taking part of. But what my hair part about this
Speaker 7: is if you ask the guys in the clubhouse, like
Speaker 7: half of them don't even know why they're doing the celebration.
Speaker 7: They're kind of just like, I don't know, like I
Speaker 7: think Shohey did something?
Speaker 5: Wait what?
Speaker 7: And actually show Hay started this. He did it on
Speaker 7: the home run and it wasn't like another player brought
Speaker 7: this upon him. You show Hey did it. He thought
Speaker 7: it was funny and so now everyone is doing it.
Speaker 8: But I told the guys.
Speaker 7: I was like, you all are missing the wink, and
Speaker 7: that's kind of like an important piece. At the end
Speaker 7: of the commercial, he winks at the camera and they're like,
Speaker 7: no one's gonna see the wink. I said, ooh, don't
Speaker 7: test us. Listen, these cameras we have today, they can
Speaker 7: get real close. So you wink, we're gonna see it.
Speaker 7: So maybe we'll see that today. But it's definitely been
Speaker 7: a fun one to see all of them just kind
Speaker 7: of playing on show.
Speaker 8: Hayes.
Speaker 7: I guess commercials and money that he has, all of
Speaker 7: the success he has.
Speaker 2: I love a New Year, New celebration. Hopefully they're doing
Speaker 2: it a lot this year, Curius that we appreciate it. Well,
Speaker 2: check out with you after the game. Still they come here,
Speaker 2: I'm Wrongo Casino Dodgers on deck, will dive deeper into
Speaker 2: this pitching matchup.
Speaker 3: David Vassi is gonna sit.
Speaker 2: Down with Tommy Edmund up next, so we'll get you
Speaker 2: an injury report and we'll hear from the manager himself,
Speaker 2: Dave Roberts. We're leading you up to Dodgers and Billies
Speaker 2: on this Sunday morning. I'm seeing Kases, the world champion
Speaker 2: Los Angeles Dodgers Audio, Nework.
Speaker 1: This is Wrongo Cassino on your home for LA Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 2: Marongo Casino. Dodgers on Deck continues on this Sunday morning
Speaker 2: as we lead you up to first pitch from Citizens
Speaker 2: Bank Park in Philadelphia, Dodgers and Phillies Marongo Casino Resort
Speaker 2: and SPA Grand Slam for good times. Tyler Glass. Now
Speaker 2: Christopher Sanchez. The pitching matchup, first pitch set for ten
Speaker 2: thirty five.
Speaker 1: He's the LA Dodgers injury report.
Speaker 2: Or is it of my UCLA healthy official medical partner
Speaker 2: of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Eleven pitchers on the IL,
Speaker 2: some of them working their way back quicker than others,
Speaker 2: including Evan Phillips and Tony Gonsolin on minor league rehab assignments.
Speaker 2: Freddy Freeman on the IL with the bad right ankle.
Speaker 2: It's head back out to Philly and check in with
Speaker 2: the Dodgers.
Speaker 3: Gedbird.
Speaker 4: Any questions for Dave Dave?
Speaker 1: Can you just describe Dave?
Speaker 3: Can you talk about the pressure.
Speaker 1: In the dugouts with Dave Roberts, Dave Tayler Just obviously
Speaker 1: he's coming off of the very first start of the season.
Speaker 7: What do you kind of just notice from him and
Speaker 7: kind of how he's been putting into play, all the
Speaker 7: work he put in this offseason.
Speaker 9: I think he's just kind of hitting his stride on
Speaker 9: sort of who he wants to be as a pitcher.
Speaker 9: I think that there's a lot more clarity freedom, and
Speaker 9: so I think that we're seeing that with his execution
Speaker 9: with all of his pitches, and so he's really freed up.
Speaker 9: And so even coming into the ballpark today with them,
Speaker 9: there's a focus, but a relaxation about him. So I
Speaker 9: think he's energized, and I think he's going to build
Speaker 9: off that last start.
Speaker 7: With how the rotation is set up, how much value
Speaker 7: does it bring having him on the back end of
Speaker 7: the rotation, especially when you have like a younger player
Speaker 7: like Roki in the middle of just kind of how
Speaker 7: it just sets not only the bullpen, but.
Speaker 10: The rotation took and spots.
Speaker 9: I think we've done a really good job of kind
Speaker 9: of staggering or forming our rotation order with the left right.
Speaker 9: Having people certainly, you know, even today on a getaway day,
Speaker 9: to have to face Tyler in a day game is
Speaker 9: not too enjoyable for hitters, So expect him to, you know,
Speaker 9: pitch well, go deep. And our bullpen's in a really
Speaker 9: good spot right now. And certainly the start last night
Speaker 9: or yesterday was very helpful for that from Roki as well.
Speaker 9: But yeah, with the rotation pitching, we're in a good spot.
Speaker 3: All right.
Speaker 2: There's Dave Robbers down the dug out. When we continue here,
Speaker 2: I'm Wrongo Casino Dodgers on deck. We'll check out with

Speaker 2: All right, DV Hunter Finducia gets called up because of
Speaker 2: the injury to Freddie Freeman.
Speaker 3: It is a roster spot that's available.
Speaker 2: And when he got to Philadelphia, I'd say he got
Speaker 2: a little surprise from the Dodgers, but a big surprise.
Speaker 5: It was a big surprise that he was not expecting.
Speaker 11: He was here the first day in Philadelphia, and usually
Speaker 11: when a player gets called up, he checks in with
Speaker 11: Dave Roberts. So there was a meeting in the manager's office.
Speaker 11: But it wasn't about his role or expectations. It was
Speaker 11: to hand him his twenty twenty four World Championship ring,
Speaker 11: something he wasn't expecting when he got to the ballpark.
Speaker 12: You know, I got called in the office and then
Speaker 12: he pulled it out behind the desk, and you know,
Speaker 12: I was kind of surprised that I was here. So
Speaker 12: now it was awesome. Barnes came in and he presented
Speaker 12: the ring to me, and yeah, it was a special
Speaker 12: moment for sure. You know, I didn't know what to expect.
Speaker 12: You know, opened the box is a whole display with
Speaker 12: the screen and video and uh, it was just you know,
Speaker 12: above and beyond and the ring itself was just amazing,
Speaker 12: you know, So definitely a special moment.
Speaker 11: So did Barnes jump out from behind the desk or
Speaker 11: was he in the room. How did that all work out?
Speaker 12: No, he kind of just he creeped in there and
Speaker 12: with his little, uh, his little grin on his face.
Speaker 12: But no, it was it was cool, you know, it
Speaker 12: was everyone was in there, you know. Just I saw
Speaker 12: pictures of the ring like on Instagram and stuff, but
Speaker 12: seeing it in person was a lot different. So I
Speaker 12: got to see all the little details on it, and
Speaker 12: seeing my name on it was just didn't seem real.
Speaker 8: So it was. It was cool.
Speaker 11: Yeah, And Hunter Fiducca still has that championship ring in
Speaker 11: the box it came in and in his locker.
Speaker 5: He's gonna keep that rink close to him.
Speaker 11: He was thinking about how he could get it back
Speaker 11: home to Austin, Texas, but he said, I'm holding onto it.
Speaker 11: I'm not mailing it or trying to fed exit anywhere.

Speaker 1: Joined by David bas saying, here's La Dodgers broadcaster and
Speaker 1: World Series champion Dodger Rick Monday.
Speaker 11: Rick, the panic in the streets are over because the
Speaker 11: Dodgers came back with their ninth win of the year.
Speaker 5: Yesterday in the street. Yeah, after one loss.
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah. For those that thought that the Dodgers were
Speaker 6: going to go one hundred and sixty two and zero
Speaker 6: wishful thinking. And normally when you have that fought, the
Speaker 6: next thing you hear is the alarm clock or mom
Speaker 6: coming in and waking up is a hey, kiddo, it's
Speaker 6: time to go to school.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 11: And one thing about being nine to one. Their offense
Speaker 11: is great, they're starting pitching. Their pitching is great. But
Speaker 11: Dave Roberts said he wants better base running. He believes
Speaker 11: that's where a point of emphasis should be.
Speaker 6: The base running. Let's be honest, the base running has
Speaker 6: not been up to the level of a team that
Speaker 6: is coming off of a World Championships that's just the case.
Speaker 6: And I go back to what Dave Roberts was saying
Speaker 6: after the final game of the home stand, even the
Speaker 6: Dodgers won it again, it was the walk off hall
Speaker 6: run by show. Heyo Tonic when asked about that series
Speaker 6: in particular and the way the Dodgers played, and again
Speaker 6: particular on how they ran the basis, he said he
Speaker 6: was dumbfounded, and he sent that message and they have
Speaker 6: to tighten the screws a little bit more on that
Speaker 6: end of it. You know, you mentioned the pitching. You
Speaker 6: start to look at the thirty Major League teams, it's
Speaker 6: the Dodgers that had the lowest ERA of any team
Speaker 6: in baseball at one point nine. You start to look
Speaker 6: around and see what happens. The Mets are second, and
Speaker 6: then the San Diego Pandres. They're not going to go away.
Speaker 6: They are third, lowest ERA. How about the fact that
Speaker 6: the San Francisco Giants had moved into second place in
Speaker 6: the West, just a game behind the Dodgers.
Speaker 11: The NL West is shaping up to be one of
Speaker 11: the most competitive divisions in baseball.
Speaker 6: And you know who I had conversation with yesterday about
Speaker 6: that very same thing, Larry Bowach, former third base coach
Speaker 6: for the Dodgers. Obvious so an all star shortstop and
Speaker 6: just a brilliant career he had here in Philadelphia and
Speaker 6: Charlie Manuel, the former Philly manager, and we were talking
Speaker 6: about that very fact, and they said, yeah, you start
Speaker 6: to look at his ball club. He said, the Dodgers
Speaker 6: in their estimation, by and far the better team in
Speaker 6: the Western Division, but the Western Division competitively, and talking
Speaker 6: again with Larry, this is the most competitive that they
Speaker 6: can see in the nationally.
Speaker 5: With the Dodgers' bullpen.
Speaker 11: We all know they came up with their identity of
Speaker 11: being the dogs during the playoffs last year. How about
Speaker 11: Ben Casparius who started one of those games in the
Speaker 11: World Series.
Speaker 5: He has picked up where he left off.
Speaker 6: You remember what you and I were talking about along
Speaker 6: with Tim Neverett in Dwayne McDonald last night after the
Speaker 6: ball game, just before you went on with Dodger Talk.
Speaker 6: He comes out, he doesn't pitch, He attacks the strike zone,
Speaker 6: He attacks the hitters. He has a plan. It's not
Speaker 6: just throw the ball like your hair's on fire. He
Speaker 6: has a plan. But there's nothing that you can look
Speaker 6: at and say in the least bit he does not
Speaker 6: appear to be intimidated, and he goes right after that
Speaker 6: strength zone. He has been a breath of fresh air.
Speaker 11: How much do you believe the Dodger bullpen needs to
Speaker 11: pace itself. I mean, obviously it's early in the year.
Speaker 11: Starters are only going four innings five innings. Can this
Speaker 11: sustain itself?
Speaker 6: It's going to have to. It's going to have to.
Speaker 6: And quite frankly, the starting pitching staff is going to
Speaker 6: need to stretch things out. You see Glass now he's
Speaker 6: pitching today. He was very good in his first outing,
Speaker 6: went five innings. Okay, you cover five innings. You need
Speaker 6: the starters now. And I think now that you're in
Speaker 6: the second and third and now the fourth edification of
Speaker 6: having a start, you need to stretch it out to
Speaker 6: go six and then at the seven to lower the
Speaker 6: burden on the bullpen.
Speaker 11: And speaking of that, Rick Davi Roberts just said moments
Speaker 11: ago that Wednesday is either going to be a spot
Speaker 11: starter or a bullpen day. And I did see Matt
Speaker 11: Sweden sour here at the ballpark. He is being taxied
Speaker 11: with the Dodgers. He threw a bullpen session today.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, that taxi arrived yesterday to be able to
Speaker 6: see what happened. So we'll find out what's going to
Speaker 6: take place in the meantime. Stay warmed a little bit
Speaker 6: on the chilli side, a little damp early this morning,
Speaker 6: but you know, the cherry blossoms around in full bloom.
Speaker 6: And you don't have allergies obviously because you're not sneezing.
Speaker 11: And now I do. But I kept my distance. I'm
Speaker 11: looking forward to the train ride with you.
Speaker 6: Oh good, Yeah, keep your distance there too, Pal.
Speaker 5: I'll be in the caboose. We'll send it back here
Speaker 5: in the studio.
Speaker 2: Tim, all right, thanks a lot of TV, Thanks a
Speaker 2: lot Rick. Well, there's a reason why Matt Sower is
Speaker 2: there at Citizens Bank Park. The Dodgers just literally a
Speaker 2: minute ago announced that Matt Soer has been called up.
Speaker 2: The right handed pitcher is going to be activated to
Speaker 2: the twenty six man roster, taking the place of Blake's.
Speaker 2: Blake Snell has been placed on the injured list just
Speaker 2: now with left shoulder inflammation, retroactive until Thursday, April third,
Speaker 2: So Blake Snell goes on the injured list with left
Speaker 2: shoulder inflammation. Right hander Matt Sower gets called up from
Speaker 2: the minor leagues, Dodger fans. Start your future to California
Speaker 2: Community College Financial. He's available to help you tuition books,
Speaker 2: sometimes even the rent. Take that next big step, go
Speaker 2: to I can go to college dot com. Still to
Speaker 2: come here on Dodgers on Deck, we'll dive deeper into
Speaker 2: this pitching matchup. Rick and Tim will have those keys
Speaker 2: to the game. But up next, go high and tight
Speaker 2: with Tommy Eddens, who lead you up to Dodgers and Phillies.
Speaker 3: First pitch of ten thirty five.
Speaker 2: I'm Tim Kass, World Champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 1: This is Morongo Casino Dodgers hunting on your home for
Speaker 1: La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 2: It's the Dodgers in Phillies, final game of this three
Speaker 2: game series in Philadelphia. Tyler Glassnew on the Mount. Dodgers
Speaker 2: Baseball brought to by Zen. She handcrafted sush. She enjoyed
Speaker 2: the game with a quick, affordable meal. The whole family
Speaker 2: can enjoy Zen. She handcrafted sush, she made fresh on
Speaker 2: site daily by professionally trained sushi chefs with precision, passion,
Speaker 2: and her tradition.
Speaker 3: You can taste.
Speaker 2: They got tuna rolls, salmon rolls, temper shrimp rolls, my
Speaker 2: personal favorite, the mango crunchy dragon rolls. Even got poke bowls.
Speaker 2: Find Zen sheet near the deli counter at Ralph's Zen.
Speaker 2: She hand crafted sushi, always fast, fresh and easy.
Speaker 1: And now what will likely be vast fielding insults from
Speaker 1: a Dodger player.
Speaker 3: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 1: This this high end tight.
Speaker 11: The Dodgers are wrapping up the first road series in
Speaker 11: North America, and we're joined right now by Dodger second
Speaker 11: Basement for the most part this year, Tommy Edmond, Tommy,
Speaker 11: thanks a lot for the time.
Speaker 8: Yeah, of course, no problem, Glad to be here.
Speaker 11: Does it feel like you guys are settling into the
Speaker 11: season now? Obviously the first home stand of the year,
Speaker 11: a lot of celebration for last year. But being here
Speaker 11: in Philly and embarking on this road trip, does it
Speaker 11: feel like you're settling in on a on a normal
Speaker 11: regular season.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I think so, you know, first road trip, kind
Speaker 13: of getting into the swing of things, getting our routines down,
Speaker 13: you know, and just kind of figuring out what we
Speaker 13: got as a team. Obviously, we had a great homestand
Speaker 13: and you know a little bit of a rough one
Speaker 13: yesterday but you know, we've overall still been playing well, so,
Speaker 13: you know, just kind of trying to figure out what
Speaker 13: the season is gonna be.
Speaker 11: Like Tommy, in spring training we talked about how you
Speaker 11: made the adjustment of standing taller from the left side.
Speaker 5: Have you seen the results you were looking for?
Speaker 13: It just allows me to you know, attack more pitches
Speaker 13: and you know, get them off the ground. So I
Speaker 13: don't know, I think that the you know, constantly working
Speaker 13: on on that during the cage, and you know, my
Speaker 13: mechanical work has paid off a little bit.
Speaker 8: Obviously this is you know a little bit.
Speaker 13: Unexpected, but but you know, hopefully, hopefully I can continue
Speaker 13: to get more and more consistent with my my swing
Speaker 13: and my swing path and hopefully makes me a better hitter.
Speaker 11: What's the balance of trying to get better but not
Speaker 11: affecting your swing too often?
Speaker 13: On a daily you have a couple of fundamental things
Speaker 13: and then there's a bunch of cues that kind of
Speaker 13: help to reinforce those And I think you just don't
Speaker 13: want to lose sight of those few fundamental things, Like
Speaker 13: you don't want to go for a.
Speaker 8: Queue just because it might feel good that day.
Speaker 13: If it doesn't reinforce one of those fundamental things, then
Speaker 13: it might kind.
Speaker 8: Of lead you astray.
Speaker 13: So I think just making sure I'm always coming back
Speaker 13: to those those main things.
Speaker 11: Tommy Edman is our guest. The glue of the Dodgers
Speaker 11: is what I like to call them, especially on that infield.
Speaker 11: What's it been like with you and Mooky MOOKI continuing
Speaker 11: to learn shortstop and you obviously being a gold glover
Speaker 11: at second base. Is there a chemistry that is being
Speaker 11: built and is it necessary to have that double play
Speaker 11: chemistry up the middle?
Speaker 8: Yeah, for sure. You know, it's been fun.
Speaker 13: We got a kind of constant communication just going through
Speaker 13: plays and you know, situations that might happen, just to
Speaker 13: make sure we're prepared and know what the other person's
Speaker 13: going to do. So you know, we'll just kind of
Speaker 13: gradually learn about each other and hopefully be able to
Speaker 13: comp them and each other, and you know, we can
Speaker 13: kind of bounce ideas off each other too, and so
Speaker 13: it's good to have somebody that you know, I can
Speaker 13: I can talk to on a day by day basis
Speaker 13: about specific defensive things.
Speaker 11: And when you say talk, is there communication during the game.
Speaker 13: Yeah, definitely, just want to be aware of the other ware,
Speaker 13: of the other guy's playing, you know what we're prepared
Speaker 13: to do on things like cuts and relays, and so yeah,
Speaker 13: we're always talking throughout the game.
Speaker 11: Tommy Edmond is our guest. Before I let you go,
Speaker 11: rewinding back to the homestand what was it like for
Speaker 11: you to be on that third baseline, to be celebrated,
Speaker 11: to get your World Series ring? And do you think
Speaker 11: you'll ever wear it?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 13: It was incredible, you know, it's it's just a very
Speaker 13: special moment to be able to reflect on all that
Speaker 13: we accomplished last year and you know.
Speaker 8: Just years and years of hard work. So it was
Speaker 8: it was very rewarding. For sure.
Speaker 13: I haven't put it on since that day. I think
Speaker 13: I'll be scared to wear something that nice most of
Speaker 13: the time, so it probably be very rare occasions, but
Speaker 13: hopefully I'll have a few opportunities to wear it.
Speaker 11: So now when you hit home runs, everybody's calling you
Speaker 11: Tommy Tanks?
Speaker 5: Does Tommy Edmund like that nickname? Am I allowed to
Speaker 5: call you Tommy Tanks?
Speaker 6: Now?
Speaker 13: I think it kind of started last year, but you know,
Speaker 13: if it catches on and people like it, then sure
Speaker 13: they can say whatever they want only.
Speaker 5: If Tommy Edmund likes it. I have never uttered that nickname.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's all good if you want to say you can.
Speaker 11: If you eat five cheese steaks before we leave Philly,
Speaker 11: maybe that will garner that type of a nickname.
Speaker 13: I don't know if I have that kind of appetite,
Speaker 13: but yeah, we'll see, we'll see how many I can down.
Speaker 11: Okay, Tommy, thanks a lot for the time. Always great
Speaker 11: catching up with you.
Speaker 8: Yeah, thank you, appreciate it.
Speaker 5: There he goes.
