Speaker 1: then a three game series against the Padres. But first
Speaker 1: things first, Justin Robleski on the mound, called up from
Speaker 1: TRIPLEA Oklahoma, City. He'll get the start. First pitch from
Speaker 1: Rainy Bush Stadium in Saint Louis is coming up at
Speaker 1: five point fifteen. Coming up over the next hour here

Speaker 1: in just a few minutes we will check in with
Speaker 1: Tim Neffertt and Rick Monday out the Galpin Motors Broadcast
Speaker 1: you booth Well. Yesterday at Dodgers Stadium, Landon Knack got
Speaker 1: the start for the Dodgers. He went into the fourth
Speaker 1: inning three to third officially four runs, four hits, three
Speaker 1: home runs, walked five. Pete Alonso got the fun started
Speaker 1: in this second with the solo home run, and then
Speaker 1: the Mets with a pair of home runs and a
Speaker 1: sack fly and the third jumped out to a four
Speaker 1: to nothing lead over the Dodgers. The Dodgers offense, meanwhile,
Speaker 1: got back into it in the third Mookie Bets and
Speaker 1: RBI double that got the Dodgers on the board down
Speaker 1: four to one. Will Smith, with an RBI single made
Speaker 1: it forward to two, and then ta Oscar Hernandez a
Speaker 1: fielder's choice scoring Mookie Betts that got the Dodgers within one,
Speaker 1: down four to three. It remained that way all the
Speaker 1: way till the eighth inning. Jose Arena on in relief
Speaker 1: Pete Alonzo, who was a Dodger killer over the four games,
Speaker 1: in RBI single He had nine RBI in the four
Speaker 1: game series against the Dodgers. As the Mets were up
Speaker 1: five to three in the bottom of the eighth inning,
Speaker 1: though the Dodgers got a little magic going as Mookie
Speaker 1: Betts had a leadoff walk. Will Smith then an RBI
Speaker 1: double made it a five to four game. Will Smith
Speaker 1: won out later at third base, ninety feet away from
Speaker 1: tying up the game. With Andy put at the plates.
Speaker 7: Oh two pitch s one unrolled third, Will's gonna come
Speaker 7: to the plate on contact.
Speaker 5: Now he's gonna get a rundown.
Speaker 8: Though the ball Well Smith played will change directional scores.
Speaker 3: It's a tie game. What a weird play. Smith came home.
Speaker 4: He stopped the throw was in the dirt to the catcher,
Speaker 4: hit the ground, pop fIF in the air. Garrett, the pitcher,
Speaker 4: was right behind the catcher, but when Garrett caught the ball,
Speaker 4: he was blocked could not get to the plate to
Speaker 4: tag out Smith's.
Speaker 1: What a wild play? Will Smith slides in safely. Brett
Speaker 1: beaties throw a one hot to the catcher Francisco Alvarez,
Speaker 1: who couldn't pick it and make the play clean. Reed Garrett,
Speaker 1: who was backing him up, caught the ball, but Alvarez
Speaker 1: was standing in front of Garrett, blocking the plate, allowing
Speaker 1: Will Smith to slide in safely, something you don't see
Speaker 1: very often in baseball. Dodgers will take it all tied
Speaker 1: up in five, they two outs up came Michael Conforto, who,
Speaker 1: going into it had not had a base it with
Speaker 1: a runner in scoring position since March thirty firsts until yesterday.
Speaker 7: Well, Conforida looking out and Garrett out of the stretch,
Speaker 7: He'll deliver to him and it's.
Speaker 8: A base hit till left failed hat has is gonna
Speaker 8: turn third.
Speaker 3: He will score.
Speaker 8: Rounding second on his way to thirdest freedom Michael Conforto
Speaker 8: for his first hit with a runner in scoring position
Speaker 8: since the month of March puts the Dodgers in the
Speaker 8: lead six to five.
Speaker 4: So Confordo had been one for two and that was
Speaker 4: a double and the other times that he has faced
Speaker 4: Garrett didn't waste any time. Well, Michael Confordo saying turn
Speaker 4: the page, he was zero for thirty with runners in
Speaker 4: scoring position.
Speaker 1: Michael Confordo delivers though with a single to left Dodgers
Speaker 1: with three runs in the eighth inning take a six
Speaker 1: to five lead. Tanner Scotts, who started this series with
Speaker 1: the blown save, picked up his save on Tuesday night
Speaker 1: and then yesterday strikes out a pair ballgame over. Tanner
Speaker 1: Scott closes it out. Dodgers come back and beat the
Speaker 1: Mets six to five. Alex Vesia the win. Tanner scott
Speaker 1: Is eleven save of the season, Dodgers their twenty first
Speaker 1: come from behind win of the year. They split the
Speaker 1: foury game series with the Mets. They go four and
Speaker 1: three on the homestand and oh yeah, the Giants yesterday
Speaker 1: helped them out with the winner with the Padres. So
Speaker 1: the Dodgers going into play today a two game lead
Speaker 1: in the NL West at thirty eight and twenty five,
Speaker 1: and now they hit the road in rainy Saint Louis
Speaker 1: to start a three game series against the Cardinals. It's
Speaker 1: Justin Robleski on the mound, first pitch from bush Dandium
Speaker 1: at five point fifteen and with more we head out
Speaker 1: to the Galloping Motors broadcast booth and welcome in Tim
Speaker 1: Nevert and Rick Monday.
Speaker 5: Guys, Tim, thanks very much.
Speaker 7: Some showers in the area, but we should be okay
Speaker 7: for the ball game tonight as the Dodgers and Cardinals
Speaker 7: get set for game one of this three game weekend set.
Speaker 7: Dodgers thirty eight and twenty five, two games on top
Speaker 7: of the padres, three ahead of the Giants and the
Speaker 7: West standings. Cardinals thirty four and twenty eight, still five
Speaker 7: games behind the Chicago Cubs. Will just keep rolling along
Speaker 7: in the Central. Cardinals right now a half game out
Speaker 7: of the wild card. Believe it or not, we're starting
Speaker 7: to look at the wild card standings at this point
Speaker 7: in the season. Justin Robleski called up from TRIPAA, Oklahoma City.
Speaker 7: The left he will make the start today. He's won
Speaker 7: in one of the big league level. Veteran Sonny Gray,
Speaker 7: the right hander is six and one, three sixty five.
Speaker 7: His earned run average, he'll go against the Dodgers and
Speaker 7: Mo Tonight, the Dodgers get Dalton rushing behind the plate
Speaker 7: in the first game of this series. With a day
Speaker 7: game tomorrow, Will Smith expected to start, and Dalton talking
Speaker 7: to me today about how he is still adjusting and
Speaker 7: being pitched a little differently and he's still trying to
Speaker 7: figure all that stuff out.
Speaker 4: Yeah. The other part, too, is when you begin to
Speaker 4: figure it out, then you go to a different team
Speaker 4: has a different style of pitching staff. By that I'm
Speaker 4: talking about one staff may be more fastball, maybe sliders,
Speaker 4: the other stuff maybe off speed. So you're constantly analyzing
Speaker 4: how teams are pitching to you, not only overall, but
Speaker 4: in certain situations of ball games. I understand too. You
Speaker 4: know there's scouts in the stands, and I'm certain that
Speaker 4: the Saint Louis Cardinals got a full report, as did
Speaker 4: the Dodgers on the Cardinals itself, so he spared to
Speaker 4: look at tendencies, which leads me to the other thing.
Speaker 4: If you're going to pitch the show, Hey, O Toani,
Speaker 4: how do you pitch to him? Because the last thirty
Speaker 4: one games, hitting a three twelve, nineteen home runs, twenty
Speaker 4: nine RBIs and in the same conversation, how do you
Speaker 4: pitch to Freddy Freeman in this ballpark? Because career in
Speaker 4: thirty nine games here at Bush Stadium in Saint Louis,
Speaker 4: Freddy Freeman has hit three ninety two and they've had
Speaker 4: difficulty even trying to get him out occasionally.
Speaker 7: Right, And Freddy's back in the lineup again tonight, obviously,
Speaker 7: but yeah, he has hit exceptionally well here. Tommy Edman
Speaker 7: is back in Saint Louis. He was a cardinal and
Speaker 7: a good woman. He was very busy earlier today he
Speaker 7: had to have a press conference for the Saint Louis
Speaker 7: media and he's just been shaking hands and kissing babies
Speaker 7: since he's been back.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and when you arrive here from the visiting team
Speaker 4: on the bus, you go through a security gate. Then
Speaker 4: you've had a long walk.
Speaker 3: You get to the.
Speaker 4: Cardinals clubhouse locker room first, then you have to continue
Speaker 4: the walk, he says, first time he'd even been that
Speaker 4: far down the hallway. And now he's in a different
Speaker 4: locker room, a different dugout. And I'm certain that he
Speaker 4: will be fan friendly and appreciate it when he comes
Speaker 4: to home play tonight.
Speaker 7: Interesting thought about the number of times the Cardinals and
Speaker 7: the Dodgers have played. You realize that these two franchises
Speaker 7: go all the way back to competing in eighteen ninety two,
Speaker 7: So from eighteen ninety two to twenty twenty four, only
Speaker 7: nine games separate them. In other words, the Dodgers have
Speaker 7: won one thousand and forty nine while the Cardinals have
Speaker 7: won one thousand and forty. If you've been playing since
Speaker 7: the late eighteen nineties in you're only nine games apart.
Speaker 7: That's pretty remarkable.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 4: There's also a lot of ties that you look at
Speaker 4: between the Cardinals and the Dodgers organization wise, you're a
Speaker 4: back to nineteen twenty the Cardinals were moving into a
Speaker 4: different Baultpark at the time. Who was the head as
Speaker 4: far as the general manager of the Cardinals at the time,
Speaker 4: branch Ricky, and he had the idea of establishing farm
Speaker 4: system and starting with affiliation of minor league teams in
Speaker 4: Houston initially. So yeah, you talk about, well, great franchises him,
Speaker 4: There's been different people that have had a footprint, if
Speaker 4: not a fingerprint, in both of.
Speaker 7: Them, and connections between the Cardinals in Southern California start
Speaker 7: with Nolan Ronado. You look at Lars newtpar Newpark out
Speaker 7: of USC and lives in El Segundo. Still, but there's
Speaker 7: a lot of Southern California connections between these two teams.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the other part two very quickly. You just
Speaker 4: talking about the Cardinals and the Dodgers. I think, first
Speaker 4: of all, two iconic uniforms, but more importantly, from an
Speaker 4: organizational standpoint, these two organizations, over decades and decades and decades,
Speaker 4: they always been looked at as fundamentally sound organizations. How
Speaker 4: they teach at the minor league level, how carries over
Speaker 4: to the major league level, and for both of these affiliations,
Speaker 4: they don't want to beat themselves with the glove or
Speaker 4: with base running.
Speaker 7: Dodgers and Cardinals, Game one of a three game weekend
Speaker 7: set here in Saint Louis. Sonny Gray the right hander

Speaker 1: agents standing by to take your donation. That's cars with
Speaker 1: the K to donate your car today Dodgers in Saint Louis.
Speaker 1: It's a homecoming for.
Speaker 9: It really is. And if you think about last year,
Speaker 9: just when he was traded to the Dodgers, he was
Speaker 9: on the il, so we didn't even really get to
Speaker 9: have like that proper goodbye of the organization. Of course,
Speaker 9: it was just you find out you're getting traded, You
Speaker 9: pack your bags. Next thing you know, you go on
Speaker 9: a flight to San Diego because that's where the Dodgers
Speaker 9: were playing at the time. And then of course just
Speaker 9: to continue coming back from injury. So it definitely happened
Speaker 9: all of a sudden. He wasn't astily expecting the trade
Speaker 9: things like that.
Speaker 1: But obviously he's so grateful for it.
Speaker 9: Of course we know what happened, winning the World Series
Speaker 9: and winning the NLCS MVP, then an extension with its organization,
Speaker 9: so all of that excitement was to come for him.
Speaker 9: But to be back here, he said, you know, it
Speaker 9: comes with a lot of really positive memories. This is
Speaker 9: where he started his career, his big League call up,
Speaker 9: the huge moments, things like that, so you know, for
Speaker 9: him to have had such an incredible time with the
Speaker 9: Cardinals wearing red. He's incredibly grateful for it. He did
Speaker 9: admit that it was his first time, of course, being
Speaker 9: in the visiting clubhouse today. It was kind of like
Speaker 9: where are the bad in cages? Was in the training
Speaker 9: room and things like that. Felt a little confused coming ins.
Speaker 9: He's so used to going to the home side, but
Speaker 9: a special return. A lot of really good memories here,
Speaker 9: but even better ones, I think it's fair to say
Speaker 9: with his new organization and hopefully more to come moving forward.
Speaker 1: Tonight, Justin Robleski on the mound called up from Triple
Speaker 1: A Oklahoma City. We saw land and Neck yesterday. I
Speaker 1: talked about it on Dodger Talk after the game yesterday. Curious,
Speaker 1: did these young arms because of injuries have been given opportunities,
Speaker 1: Bobby Miller, Justin Robleski, land and Neck. These guys got
Speaker 1: to start making the most of these opportunities. They really do.
Speaker 9: They have to kind of seize the this time because look,
Speaker 9: as we know, in this league, it's not guaranteed, and
Speaker 9: when you have the runway, you gotta take it. And
Speaker 9: right now we saw what land and Neck. They've kind
Speaker 9: of runway that he was provided. Unfortunately, yesterday the Mets
Speaker 9: were able to get to him in some big moments.
Speaker 9: As much as he had a sharp first ending, he
Speaker 9: just wasn't commanding the stuff where he needed to be.
Speaker 9: And even he said afterwards like he was just like,
Speaker 9: it's time for me to get out of my head
Speaker 9: and just start pitching. And hopefully, when you look to
Speaker 9: today's game with Justin Robleski, another young pitcher, hopefully he
Speaker 9: can do just that. When you look at what his
Speaker 9: outings have looked like at the big league level, he's
Speaker 9: only had two and the first one was not great.
Speaker 9: There's no a fan butts about it, and he kind
Speaker 9: of had to wear it to be honest. And then
Speaker 9: the second one he was really good against the A's.
Speaker 9: And so if he can just continue with that, Dave
Speaker 9: said that adds of late they've seen some positive strides
Speaker 9: at him. They know he has the stuff to be effective.
Speaker 9: Of course, it just starts with that fastball command. So
Speaker 9: if he can do that, he should be in a
Speaker 9: good spot. Yeah, we're gonna see what happens, but hopefully
Speaker 9: with Justin Robleski he can kind of just set the
Speaker 9: tone in this one whenever that might be.
Speaker 1: We will see Justin Robleski again. One of these young
Speaker 1: arms of Dodgers need a little length out, especially going
Speaker 1: into this six game roach Im Kirston. We appreciate it.
Speaker 1: We'll check o with you after the game. Still to
Speaker 1: come here on Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck. Who will
Speaker 1: preview this bitching matchup? David Van Stag goes one on
Speaker 1: one with Max Muncie. But up next we get you
Speaker 1: at injury report an we'll hear from Dodger manager Dave Roberts.
Speaker 1: It's the Dodgers and Cardinals. First pitch from Saint Louis
Speaker 1: is coming up at five pint fifteen. I'm Tim Kasees,
Speaker 1: the world champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.

Speaker 1: a Grand Slam for good times. Justin Robleski and Sonny
Speaker 1: Gray the pitching matchup first pitch set for five point fifteen.
Speaker 6: This is the LA Dodgers injury report.
Speaker 1: Where's any by UCLA healthy? Official medical partner of the
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Dodgers. Kirby Yates is soon coming back, as
Speaker 1: is Michael Kopak. Both on the injured list, Tyler Glass
Speaker 1: now Blake Snell probably in that next wave behind them.
Speaker 1: As far as injuries to pitchers are concerned. Luis Garcia
Speaker 1: on the il the right ad doctor injury she and
Speaker 1: keep talking about him. He's in TRIPLEA Oklahoma City, working
Speaker 1: his way back, building himself back up after Tommy John surgery.
Speaker 1: He could be that next starter also to help out
Speaker 1: this Dodgers team. As far as one of the young
Speaker 1: guys is concerned, Rookie Sasaki is still out with that
Speaker 1: right shoulder impingement. All right, we head back out the
Speaker 1: Bush Stadium in checking with the Dodger skipper.
Speaker 3: Questions for Dave Dave, can you just describe Dave?
Speaker 5: Can you talk about the pressure in.
Speaker 3: The dugouts with Dave Roberts.
Speaker 11: I think good. I think that the stuff is good.
Speaker 11: As far as fastball, the secondary mix, I think for
Speaker 11: him is just kind of like any pitcher as highest
Speaker 11: sequence and how you command the baseball. But he's coming
Speaker 11: off a couple of good ones in the minors, So
Speaker 11: I feel good about tonight.
Speaker 12: Do you think that's when it.
Speaker 1: Comes to how the protection from the bullpen?
Speaker 9: And I know we've talked about Kirby Yate's Michael Copek
Speaker 9: potentially returning this weekend.
Speaker 12: That's still a potential, if not hurt tend for today
Speaker 12: for this weekend.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I think as far as coverage where we're at,
Speaker 11: we feel good where we're at. Obviously, it's contingent upon
Speaker 11: today's tonight's starter. Kirby and Copek, they will be back
Speaker 11: at some point. I'm sure one will be activated this
Speaker 11: weekend and one, if not.
Speaker 1: Both, but oh yeah, we'll find out this weekend which
Speaker 1: one comes back? Is it Kirby Yates first? Is it
Speaker 1: Michael Kopek? Both expected to come off the engine list
Speaker 1: at some point on this roadchip, which again continues in
Speaker 1: San Diego Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, but starts tonight in

Speaker 1: Robleski gets the call. He gets called up from Triple A.
Speaker 1: First pitch coming up at five point.
Speaker 6: Fifteen, joining Tim Kats on Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 5: I accept everybody for who they are.
Speaker 3: This is Dodger insider David Basse.
Speaker 1: All right, DV, we understand the tarpa is on the infield.
Speaker 1: What's the latest as far as first pitch is concerned.
Speaker 5: Yeah, tarp is still on the field. Rain is still
Speaker 5: falling here at Bush Stadium, and we just got word
Speaker 5: from the Dodgers in Major League Baseball that this game
Speaker 5: will not start on time. They will give us an
Speaker 5: update on when this game will start on time, but
Speaker 5: hopefully it passes through in the next thirty to forty minutes.
Speaker 5: That's what they're expecting, and that's why they don't want
Speaker 5: to start this game and be interrupted like the Dodgers
Speaker 5: and Mets were on the last road trip. But rain
Speaker 5: has certainly followed the Dodgers the last couple of times
Speaker 5: away from Los Angeles. Even in La there was rain,
Speaker 5: so they can't get away from it. And this is
Speaker 5: really more about the Cardinals. They got their ace on
Speaker 5: the mountain night and sunny gray. They don't want to
Speaker 5: waste him. So this is starting in a delay, but
Speaker 5: shouldn't be too long of a wait until first pitch
Speaker 5: is thrown, all.
Speaker 1: Right, So we got a little bit of time here
Speaker 1: to talk of baseball DV yesterday. How big was that
Speaker 1: hit for Michael Conforto in the eighth inning?
Speaker 5: Every player I talked to you said it was huge
Speaker 5: for his psyche, his confidence. We all know the struggles
Speaker 5: he's had. That base hit in the eighth inning was
Speaker 5: his first hit with a runner in scoring position since March.
Speaker 5: Here's what Confordo had to say after the game yesterday
Speaker 5: about the struggles and what that hit may mean for him.
Speaker 18: It's frustrating. I mean, it's it's part of the game's
Speaker 18: part of baseball. But you know, there comes a time
Speaker 18: when you know you got to start performing, you got
Speaker 18: to start, you know, doing something for your team, and
Speaker 18: you know sometimes that makes it a little bit harder
Speaker 18: to stomach the bat at bats but you just got
Speaker 18: to keep moving forward and keep working. And you know,
Speaker 18: that's that's what I've been trying to keep my mind
Speaker 18: focused on.
Speaker 5: Confordo has that type of personality tim where it's very steady,
Speaker 5: but you could see there was a difference in his
Speaker 5: demeanor even today when he came out for batting practice.
Speaker 5: By the way, way, Dodger batting practice was cut short
Speaker 5: because the rain was starting to fall, So only one
Speaker 5: group of Dodger hitters were able to take batting practice
Speaker 5: today before the rain started to fall about an hour ago.
Speaker 1: David has driven by Ford it. There's one thing we like,
Speaker 1: of course's choices. Find yours at the four f one
Speaker 1: fifty gas hybrid all electric tough. This mark can only
Speaker 1: be called the f one fifty. With the Dodgers in
Speaker 1: Saint Louis, that means the return to Busch Stadium for
Speaker 1: Tommy Edmund.
Speaker 5: David, Yeah, And there was so much demand for Tommy
Speaker 5: Edmund before the game that the Dodgers had to set
Speaker 5: up a pseudo press conference for him and the Dodger
Speaker 5: dugout before the game. I was there, and here's what
Speaker 5: Tommy had to tell us about his return to Busch
Speaker 5: Stadium for the first time since being traded to the
Speaker 5: Dodgers at last year's deadline.
Speaker 12: I don't really know how to answer that question.
Speaker 19: I think maybe once I start playing, Potentially it is
Speaker 19: a little different because walking into the end of the stadium,
Speaker 19: we coming through the same entrance in the parking lot,
Speaker 19: but we're going through a different doors.
Speaker 12: Okay, this is different.
Speaker 19: And then see the visiting clubhouse, which I actually had
Speaker 19: never even been inside before, and I'd been in this
Speaker 19: stadium for, you know, five years, and I had to
Speaker 19: ask where the visiting batting cage was in training room
Speaker 19: and all that stuff. So yeah, it is I think,
Speaker 19: just experiencing that, experiencing this stadium from a different point
Speaker 19: of view, I think, so yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah. I asked Tommy Edmond about whether or not he
Speaker 5: believes this will give him some certain sense of closure
Speaker 5: because he came up through the Cardinals organization. He was
Speaker 5: hurt when he got traded, so he wasn't really even
Speaker 5: around his team, and I guess talking to the Saint
Speaker 5: Louis media around here and Mike Claiborn from the Cardinals
Speaker 5: radio network, there is great anticipation that when Edmund comes
Speaker 5: to the plate for the first time, tonight he will
Speaker 5: get a standing ovation a lah Freddie Freeman in Atlanta.
Speaker 5: I remember Chase Suttley in Philadelphia, David Freese when the
Speaker 5: Dodgers came back here. So Edmund should get that type
Speaker 5: of reception when he steps to the plate for the
Speaker 5: first time tonight.
Speaker 1: Injury wise, DV, how's that ankle for Tommy yet man?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know Dodger fans don't really care about his
Speaker 5: coming home party here in Saint Louis. They care about
Speaker 5: his right ankle. And it's good news that he played
Speaker 5: yesterday and he's in the starting lineup today at second base.
Speaker 5: And here's what he said about the right ankle and
Speaker 5: whether or not it's going to be something that he
Speaker 5: has to keep an eye on the rest of the year.
Speaker 19: I just do it a lot of you know, ankle
Speaker 19: rehabs stuff, a lot of stability, a lot of kind
Speaker 19: of foot intrinsic muscle type stuff, just to stabilize everything
Speaker 19: around there so that it doesn't, uh doesn't get into
Speaker 19: bad positions basically, and you know, just staying on top
Speaker 19: of all the soft tissue stuff as well.
Speaker 12: No, I don't think it's the sliding.
Speaker 19: I think it's more of like if I got to
Speaker 19: make a quick like kind of change of direction. But
Speaker 19: that's most of the time that that doesn't It's it's
Speaker 19: more just like kind of abrupt situations. So for the
Speaker 19: most part, nothing really bothers it. Sliding does bother at all.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I asked Tommy whether or not he wants to
Speaker 5: go head first from now on, so he gave us
Speaker 5: a pretty detailed explanation on what aggravates that right ankle.
Speaker 1: All right, Dave time now to pick the horses out
Speaker 1: in Santa Anita, and we're looking at tomorrow's first race
Speaker 1: at Santa Anita. Of course, a full day of racing tomorrow.

Speaker 1: rain delay as the Dodgers and Cardinals will wait for
Speaker 1: this weather system to pass through. The tarf is on
Speaker 1: the field. The game will get played tonight, no doubt
Speaker 1: about it.
Speaker 3: But first and now.
Speaker 6: Joined by David Mass saying, here's La Dodgers broadcaster and
Speaker 6: World Series champion Dodger Rick Monday.
Speaker 5: Rick Monday, I don't know about you, but I have
Speaker 5: mixed feelings coming back to Saint Louis. Growing up a
Speaker 5: Dodger fan. Why is it?
Speaker 18: Well?
Speaker 5: Number one, I think about Ozzie Smith's home run in
Speaker 5: Game five of the eighty five NLCS. I think back to.
Speaker 4: The take it off the phone with Tom Neon If
Speaker 4: you're what.
Speaker 5: No, I mean you ruined that for me too, because.
Speaker 4: Tom is a matter of fact, there's going to be
Speaker 4: in Los Angeles. I believe next to comstwn Well, you
Speaker 4: ruined that whole front of mine and a former teammate
Speaker 4: of mine.
Speaker 5: I know you introduced me and Tom needen Feur is
Speaker 5: one of the nicest guys I've ever.
Speaker 4: Met, exactly. That's the reason I brought it up, because
Speaker 4: he is. He's a wonder guy. In fact, okay, he
Speaker 4: gave up the home run to Ozzie Smith, he also
Speaker 4: gave up home run to Jack Clark. I do know
Speaker 4: that Tom has been here in Saint Louis recently and
Speaker 4: did an appearance with Jack Clark. I mean, yeah, and
Speaker 4: their friends they understand it. Here's the other part too,
Speaker 4: is yeah, it hurts, there's no question about it. But
Speaker 4: it's in competition and stuff happens. I mean, who would
Speaker 4: have thought that would have happen? Is great drama you're
Speaker 4: competing as best you can at that particular moment, and
Speaker 4: one's going to succeed in the end.
Speaker 5: Was not yes, but that was heartbreaking in.
Speaker 4: Nineteen that was absolutely well. Imagine what it was like
Speaker 4: for Tom.
Speaker 5: Yeah, how did he handle it?
Speaker 10: Right?
Speaker 4: Well, I think that a lot of people surrounded him
Speaker 4: by saying, hey, look the reason you're here. For example,
Speaker 4: in a fantasy camp a number of years ago, there
Speaker 4: were some teammates of mine from nineteen eighty one. Well,
Speaker 4: Tom Needenfeer was up briefly in nineteen eighty one towards
Speaker 4: the end of the season, and Tom did not come
Speaker 4: up when I called up some of my other guys
Speaker 4: and I asked all of them to come up. They
Speaker 4: were part of the one team, and I asked him
Speaker 4: publicly right then on the PA system, Tom, why aren't
Speaker 4: you coming up? He goes, I didn't have that much
Speaker 4: to do. I said, no, your family forever. And that's
Speaker 4: where you start to rally around one another. It's painful
Speaker 4: down there. These guys don't show it, but trust me,
Speaker 4: they take it home with them.
Speaker 5: No doubt about it. And certainly the Dodgers and Cardinals
Speaker 5: have such a rivalry that the win loss record regular
Speaker 5: season wise, Rick, forget about the postseason, and those battles
Speaker 5: are a difference of one or two games.
Speaker 4: And I think if you look at these teams, we'll
Speaker 4: go another way. Has nothing to do with the competition.
Speaker 4: I think two of the iconic uniforms in Major League Baseball,
Speaker 4: no doubt, I mean, no question about it.
Speaker 5: Did you ever see Stan Musual play Rick? Since we're
Speaker 5: talking Cardinals Dodgers.
Speaker 4: Don't recall if I did or not. To be honest
Speaker 4: with you, I saw him on television plenty of times.
Speaker 4: I don't recall seeing him in person with that pekaboo
Speaker 4: stance that he had. It's like he was trying to
Speaker 4: peek around the corner of a building to see what
Speaker 4: was happening in the next street. But boy, he could play.
Speaker 5: I know Rick needs a lot of security when he
Speaker 5: comes into the stadium here at Busch Stadium, But have
Speaker 5: you seen the statue outside of Bush Stadium of that
Speaker 5: batting stance you're describing its stay unusual.
Speaker 4: Well, we come in a different way, but I have
Speaker 4: seen it in the past, and yeah, it's kind of
Speaker 4: a peekaboo stands you go. Well, first of all, he's
Speaker 4: coiled up, and he was able to generate a lot
Speaker 4: of energy in the swing itself. But I think you're
Speaker 4: looking at it too very storied franchises. If you're looking
Speaker 4: at the Cardinals and the Dodgers over the years, when you.
Speaker 5: Came here for Old Bush Stadium as a broadcaster, where
Speaker 5: the conditions a little less comfortable than what they are
Speaker 5: right now.
Speaker 4: Oh, they were very much different than they are right now,
Speaker 4: including air conditioning, including the fact even as a player.
Speaker 4: I mean, keep in mind, this place gets rather hot
Speaker 4: during the summer, does it not, Yes, And there was
Speaker 4: artificial surface it would burn your feet. In fact, it
Speaker 4: just jogged my memory. I looked over in the right
Speaker 4: field once when I was with the Chicago cubsse Cardinal
Speaker 4: was playing in right field. He had asked them of
Speaker 4: his Cardinal friends, quote unquote, hey, what can I do?
Speaker 4: Because it was going to be like over one hundred
Speaker 4: degrees The field temperature was like one hundred and thirty.
Speaker 4: They put thermometers on it, and it was amazing. Somebody
Speaker 4: in the local television Friday and egg on the surface.
Speaker 4: I mean, it was that type of a just sweltering hot.
Speaker 4: And I looked over to Jose and it was like
Speaker 4: he was doing the Mexican hat dance. His feet were burning.
Speaker 4: The reason they were burning, they played a trick on him.
Speaker 4: They told him to put aluminum foil in the lining
Speaker 4: of his shoes. And he'd been out there for three
Speaker 4: or four innings, his feet were baking. He ran into
Speaker 4: the dugout and put his foot in the five gallon
Speaker 4: buckets of ammonia water that we put the towels in
Speaker 4: to try and stay fresh. But it was also so
Speaker 4: hot here. You would have to change uniforms maybe twice,
Speaker 4: maybe three times during a game. And as a broadcaster,
Speaker 4: I remember Vin and Ross Porter too, we would bring
Speaker 4: a change of clothes if we were leaving from Saint
Speaker 4: Louis and flying somewhere else because you would be absolutely soaked,
Speaker 4: even in the broadcast booth.
Speaker 5: That's amazing. That's some of the stuff that as a
Speaker 5: player and a broadcaster you have that unique up or
Speaker 5: so you.
Speaker 4: Have it great. Now we're in the in the broadcast booth,
Speaker 4: and this thing called air conditioning, because the old the
Speaker 4: old broadcast booth Cincinnati was the same way it was.
Speaker 4: It was all concrete. Philadelphia was that way, all concrete,
Speaker 4: and it retained the heat.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it really does. And as far as this goes,
Speaker 5: it's a really nice ballpark. I would say, despite us
Speaker 5: being in Saint Louis, this is a great ballpark.
Speaker 4: Have you been to the museum?
Speaker 5: I have, and I held Stan Musual's bat once and
Speaker 5: I held lou Brock's actual bat once.
Speaker 4: Really.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's amazing they allow fans to do that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, did you drop something.
Speaker 5: Well, I'm just letting you know. I had that experience
Speaker 5: of holding Legends bats and.
Speaker 4: I'm glad you brought that up because that's exactly what
Speaker 4: it used to be used to have the Bowl Hall
Speaker 4: of Fame right outside the door of the old stadium, which.
Speaker 5: Was heck, I gotta take Mookie bets there.
Speaker 4: Stone through.
Speaker 5: Thanks Rick, We'll check back in with you and Tim
Speaker 5: Never a little bit later. We'll leave it right there.
Speaker 1: Tim Kates, all right, thank you guys. That's the Dodgers
Speaker 1: game plan. Dodger fans, you need a game plan to
Speaker 1: start your future at a California community college. Financial aids
Speaker 1: available to help you with tuition, books, and sometimes even
Speaker 1: the rent. It's time to take that next big step.
Speaker 1: Classes they can fill up quickly, so enrolled today. At
Speaker 1: I can go to college dot Com. Still they come
Speaker 1: here on Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, We'll dive deeper
Speaker 1: into this pitch he matchup. We'll also go high and
Speaker 1: tight when we come back with Max Muncy Dodgers in St.
Speaker 1: Louis to take on the Cardinals. First pitch will be
Speaker 1: delayed because of rain in the Saint Louis area. Scheduled
Speaker 1: to blow through. This game will get underway, but not
Speaker 1: on time. As we lead you up to that, I'm
Speaker 1: Tim Kase's the world champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 6: As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino Dodgers on
Speaker 6: tack on the official home of LA Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 1: Dodgers and Cardinals weather in Saint Louis. This game will
Speaker 1: not start on time, but we don't expect a long
Speaker 1: delay it which stadium more than that coming up, Justin
Speaker 1: Robleski and Sonny Gray was off to a six and
Speaker 1: one start for the Cardinals. That is the pitching matchup.
Speaker 1: Dodgers Baseball is brought to you by Zench Sushi. Enjoyants
Speaker 1: with the game. It's quick and affordable. The whole family
Speaker 1: can enjoy it. Zench sushi is made fresh on site
Speaker 1: daily by professionally trained sushi chefs with precision, passion, and
Speaker 1: a tradition. You can taste it. They got the spicy
Speaker 1: tuna rolls, the tempura shrimp rolls, the salmon rolls, my
Speaker 1: personal favorite, the mango crunchy dragon roll. They also got
Speaker 1: the poke bowls. They got platters you can get as well.
Speaker 1: It said the Zen she counter near the deli counter
Speaker 1: ed Ralph Zen. She handcrafted, Sue. She always fast, fresh
Speaker 1: and easy.
Speaker 6: David, and now what will likely be vast fielding insults
Speaker 6: from a Dodger player.
Speaker 1: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 3: This is high and tight.
Speaker 5: The Dodgers are in Saint Louis and I'm joined right
Speaker 5: now by my guy Dodger third baseman, Max Munsey, who
Speaker 5: has a great event coming up on June twelfth. It's
Speaker 5: Uncork for a Cause. It's going to benefit the wildfire
Speaker 5: recovery and youth programs for the La Dodger Foundation and
Speaker 5: the YMCA. If you want to attend for a great
Speaker 5: cause and meet Max Munsey, maybe get a signed wine bottle.
Speaker 5: Go to Uncork for a Cause. Dot Com Monsey thanks
Speaker 5: a lot for the time and can't wait to see
Speaker 5: you out there.
Speaker 12: Thanks for having me. It's gonna be a fun event.
Speaker 12: I'm really looking forward to it.
Speaker 5: Are you a big wine drinker?
Speaker 12: I wouldn't say I'm a huge wine drinker, but you
Speaker 12: know I enjoy glass every now and then, and especially
Speaker 12: if Freddy's picking the bottle, he always gets some good stuff.
Speaker 5: Now, an event like this would intimidate people like me.
Speaker 5: Can you put everybody's minds at ease that you can
Speaker 5: get in you could support a cause and not feel
Speaker 5: intimidated by a fancy charity?
Speaker 12: Yeah? Absolutely, you know, it's kind of everybody, and it's
Speaker 12: it's one of those things where there's gonna be tons
Speaker 12: of items that are available for auction, you know, and
Speaker 12: some will be cheaper, some will be a little more expensive.
Speaker 12: But the only thing to know is that all of
Speaker 12: the proceeds from that one hundred percent of it are
Speaker 12: going to help the wildlife relief efforts or the wildfire
Speaker 12: relief efforts. And you know, to me, that was the
Speaker 12: most important thing. Uncork for a Cause reached out to
Speaker 12: us about, you know, hey, we'd like to do doing
Speaker 12: a you know, an event with you guys. Is there
Speaker 12: a charity you'd like to support, and you know, Kelly
Speaker 12: immediately kind of looked at me and was like, hey,
Speaker 12: we could do something to help out, you know, the
Speaker 12: fire relief stuff. And you know, for us sitting at home,
Speaker 12: you know, during the off season, watching just the pure
Speaker 12: devastation happen really hit us hard. You know, for us
Speaker 12: being an as long as we've been, and you know,
Speaker 12: seeing how we've become a part of the community. We've
Speaker 12: built our home there, our kids have grown up there.
Speaker 12: You know, LA is as much at home to us
Speaker 12: as anywhere else now at this point, and so to
Speaker 12: see that kind of devastation was truly heartbreaking to us,
Speaker 12: and you know, we wanted to find a way to
Speaker 12: reach out and help. And when on Cork for cause,
Speaker 12: you know, came at us to say, hey we can
Speaker 12: throw an event. Is there a charity like I said,
Speaker 12: Kelly immediately was like, hey, this is a good opportunity.
Speaker 12: We should do this, and so we kind of jumped
Speaker 12: on it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the month sees certainly have been a big part
Speaker 5: of the La fabric playing for the Dodgers since twenty eighteen,
Speaker 5: and so many of us want to do so much more,
Speaker 5: but things like this that present themselves certainly can make
Speaker 5: a difference.
Speaker 12: Yes, it really can. And for those that aren't able
Speaker 12: to attend, there's still a way you can. You know,
Speaker 12: you can sign up on the website and the items
Speaker 12: that aren't bought at the event can still be you know,
Speaker 12: you can still have a chance to you know, get
Speaker 12: in there even if you're not attending the event. So
Speaker 12: that way we're you know, we're hoping everything goes and
Speaker 12: like I said, one hundred scent of the proceeds are going
Speaker 12: to go help out people. And you know, we got
Speaker 12: some really cool items. We got some wine bottles, we
Speaker 12: got some bats, some balls with some jerseys and you
Speaker 12: know they're all signed by the players, and it's just
Speaker 12: it's it's gonna be really fun event, and you know,
Speaker 12: it's just it'll be a nice night for one to
Speaker 12: kind of get away from baseball and you know, just
Speaker 12: enjoy each other's company and you know, do do something
Speaker 12: good for the community.
Speaker 5: On corkfor Cause dot com is where you can bid
Speaker 5: on those items and also buy your event tickets for
Speaker 5: June twelfth. It's right around the corner. Max Munsey is
Speaker 5: our guest, all right, getting away from a great cause
Speaker 5: and into baseball month. See, you certainly have turned your
Speaker 5: season around since the beginning of May. Everybody's looking at
Speaker 5: those eyeglasses sunglasses, but there's gotta be more than just that.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean it is hard to deny that I
Speaker 12: started playing better as soon as I started wearing them.
Speaker 12: But you know, for me, it was just find refinding
Speaker 12: the confidence of myself. You know, you get off to
Speaker 12: that kind of start, and it's tough to deal with,
Speaker 12: especially at the beginning of the season. You know, threat
Speaker 12: throughout the course of seven eight months, everyone's going to
Speaker 12: go through a slump at some point. Unfortunately, I just
Speaker 12: happened to have one right out of the gate, and
Speaker 12: that makes it look worse than what it actually is.
Speaker 12: And you know, I was hitting the ball hard, it
Speaker 12: just wasn't getting any results for it. And you know,
Speaker 12: I obviously wasn't having any power numbers. And for a
Speaker 12: guy like me, that's kind of tough when you know
Speaker 12: that's what everyone looks for when it comes to me.
Speaker 12: And you know, finally getting some success with that has
Speaker 12: you know, really given me, you know, just newfound confidence
Speaker 12: back in myself. And you know, any positivity you can
Speaker 12: get in this game goes a long way.
Speaker 5: Everybody talked about the Soto shuffle when you were playing
Speaker 5: the Mets, but when you were hitting those home runs
Speaker 5: against the Yankees and Mets, I know when you got
Speaker 5: your confidence back by the way you just flip your
Speaker 5: bat and just your demeanor when you get a hold
Speaker 5: of one. Am I seeing it correctly? The confidence is back?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean a couple of those were you know,
Speaker 12: a little emotional.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 12: I talked about that the second one the other day
Speaker 12: after the mistake I made. And you know, people always
Speaker 12: ask me where the bat flips come from, and that's
Speaker 12: usually it's just the emotion coming out of me at
Speaker 12: the time. It's never planned. It's just, you know, that's
Speaker 12: just what comes out. And you know, I'm glad that
Speaker 12: everyone has fun with it and they enjoy it. And
Speaker 12: you know, for me, it was always just a thing
Speaker 12: that you know, we're celebrating a home run. It was
Speaker 12: never about any you know, anyone on the other side.
Speaker 12: It's never ever been about that. It's just been about
Speaker 12: me and the team and the teammates, and you know,
Speaker 12: I try to keep it that way.
Speaker 5: Uncork for Acus dot Com is the website for the
Speaker 5: great event that the month Sees are hosting on June twelfth.
Speaker 5: Max Munsey is our guest. Speaking of another teammate. You've
Speaker 5: been talking about him, other guys have been supporting him,
Speaker 5: Michael Conforto. How big of a hit was that for
Speaker 5: him yesterday? And a big win for you guys?
Speaker 12: Oh, it was huge. You know, we were all so
Speaker 12: pumped in the dugout one. It gave us a lead
Speaker 12: in too. Just for Mikey to get that hit. You know,
Speaker 12: that's something that can change your season around right there.
Speaker 12: You get a big hit in that situation and you know,
Speaker 12: as I was just talking about, you get a little positivity,
Speaker 12: a little confident backing yourself. That can be all the
Speaker 12: difference you need in the world. You can tinker with
Speaker 12: mechanics and you know, approaches and anything you want, but
Speaker 12: if you don't have any confidence in yourself, it's tough.
Speaker 12: And you know, I don't I'm not speaking for Mikey
Speaker 12: on that. I don't know what he's been going through,
Speaker 12: but for me personally, if you're in that moment and
Speaker 12: you get that big hit, sometimes that changes things for me.
Speaker 12: When we were in Arizona, I got, you know, the
Speaker 12: big hitoff Ginkle to kind of tie the game up
Speaker 12: or get us wonder and closer, And for me, that
Speaker 12: was kind of what started changing things around for me.
Speaker 12: And so you know, you get a big hit in
Speaker 12: that moment that can change your season.
Speaker 5: It seemed like for Tanner Scott that tenth inning to
Speaker 5: set up your heroics, the team's heroics, striking out Soto
Speaker 5: and Alonso to get you guys to the bottom of
Speaker 5: the tenth inning. And then yesterday, same thing for a closer.
Speaker 12: I would imagine it's for everybody. It doesn't matter what
Speaker 12: your position is. You know, closing is one of the
Speaker 12: hardest things to do in this game. You have to
Speaker 12: have a different mindset to be able to do that.
Speaker 12: And you know, for for Tanner those two innings, he
Speaker 12: looked like the Tanner Scott that we've seen in the past.
Speaker 12: And you know, as I said postgame one of those days,
Speaker 12: the stuff just from the side just felt like I
Speaker 12: had a little bit more jump on. It felt a
Speaker 12: little bit crisper. And you know, the vela can always
Speaker 12: say whatever the villa wants, but you can notice things
Speaker 12: from the side in the batter's box, the ball just
Speaker 12: feels different sometimes. And you know, for me, it just looked.
Speaker 12: It looked different coming out of his hand. It looked good.
Speaker 5: Before I let you go, you talked about the defense.
Speaker 5: I saw Mookie Betts working with you the other day.
Speaker 5: How much has MOOKI clicked with you as far as
Speaker 5: the left side of the infield and just what he
Speaker 5: was showing you.
Speaker 12: Oh, he's been huge. You know, he's been helping me
Speaker 12: out a bunch. He's just trying to, you know, help
Speaker 12: me understand things. And we we we bounce ideas, you know,
Speaker 12: back and forth off of each other. And you know,
Speaker 12: for Mookie, he had to gain a wealth of knowledge,
Speaker 12: you know, transferring from the outfield back to shortstop. And
Speaker 12: you know, for him, he feels like getting that wealth
Speaker 12: of knowledge, he can help spread that to me. And
Speaker 12: you know, he talks about a lot of stuff that
Speaker 12: I've never even thought about on defense before. And so
Speaker 12: it's it's he's been you know, I'm believably helpful. And
Speaker 12: again he's been trying to help me get my confidence
Speaker 12: back over there. And you know, it's one of those
Speaker 12: things where we're out there every single day and we're
Speaker 12: we're talking, we're communicating, and it's been been amazing having
Speaker 12: him over there.
Speaker 5: It's amazing to have Max Mounsey back for another year.
Speaker 5: Two time World Series champion. Him and his wife Kelly
Speaker 5: obviously have their hearts for all those affected by the wildfires,
Speaker 5: and the event Uncork for a Cause is on June
Speaker 5: twelfth to benefit all those and you can get tickets

Speaker 6: for LA Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 1: Dodgers in Saint Louis. There's a take on the Cardinals
Speaker 1: start of a three game set. First pitch will be
Speaker 1: delayed because of rain in the area. Let's dive deeper
Speaker 1: though into this pitching matchup, and.
Speaker 6: Now before the Dodgers hit the die, we look at
Speaker 6: the pitching matchups cos.
Speaker 1: In about your Southern California. Toyota dealers work hard, in
Speaker 1: play hard in a New Tacoma with an I Force
Speaker 1: Turbo Charts engine. It's a truck built for the bulls hee.
Speaker 1: Youre Toyota dealers today. They make it easy. Sonny Gray
Speaker 1: will be on the mound for the Saint Louis Cardinals
Speaker 1: six and one with a three sixty five RORA. He
Speaker 1: is having himself a great season. The thirty five year
Speaker 1: old right hander, former first round pick of the A's
Speaker 1: back in twenty eleven out of Vanderbilt, He's been with
Speaker 1: the A's, the Yankees, the Reds, the Twins, and the Cardinals.
Speaker 1: Now in his second season. He's a three time All Star,
Speaker 1: making his thirteenth start this season, top three in wins,
Speaker 1: top three in war last time out, seven shutout innings,
Speaker 1: four hits, ten punchouts in a win over the Rangers
Speaker 1: in the month of May. He was really good in
Speaker 1: the six starts, three and one with a three seventy
Speaker 1: one ERRAY. Making his eight start against the Dodgers in
Speaker 1: his career, his first this season, he is one in
Speaker 1: four of the three, thirty four rray and forty nine strikehoufs. Now,
Speaker 1: Sonny Gray shut out the Dodgers two nothing in his
Speaker 1: first career appearance back in twenty fifteen against them. Over
Speaker 1: his next six starts, Sonny Gray has been zero to
Speaker 1: four with a four to thirty one ERRA, but has
Speaker 1: held the Dodgers to three earned runs or less and
Speaker 1: two quality starts, including an eleven strikeout game. When he
Speaker 1: was with the Reds back in twenty twenty one. Sonny
Speaker 1: Gray will oppose Justin Robleski. Yes, robo is back one
Speaker 1: and one with an eight RORA twenty four year old
Speaker 1: left hander, an eleventh round pick of the Dodgers back
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one out of Oklahoma State. He missed
Speaker 1: his season at Oklahoma State because of Tommy John surgery,
Speaker 1: so he fell in the draft. He wouldn't have fallen
Speaker 1: so far if not for that arm injury. Dodgers drafted him,
Speaker 1: signed him. He missed his first year in the Pro
Speaker 1: balls in the minor league, but has risen up through
Speaker 1: the minor league system pretty quickly. Made his major league
Speaker 1: debut last September, making his second start third appearance here
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five at the big league level. He's
Speaker 1: been up and down from TRIPAA to the big leagues.
Speaker 1: Last time he pitched for the Dodgers May fifteenth, four
Speaker 1: shutout innings of relief, one hit, four strikeouts in a
Speaker 1: win against the A's. He faced the Cardinals once already
Speaker 1: in his young career. Last year. He allowed four hits,
Speaker 1: four runs, two walks, and three home runs while striking
Speaker 1: out three, but he got the win in his first
Speaker 1: Major League win ever. Justin Robleski, Sonny Gray, the pitchy
Speaker 1: matchup Dodgers and Cardinals will come back and we'll get
Speaker 1: you ready for what should be a delayed start from St. Louis.

Speaker 1: Beautiful sunny afternoon here in southern California. Not so in
Speaker 1: Saint Louis, Missouri, where the Dodgers are starting a three
Speaker 1: game weekend set against the Saint Louis Cardinals. Raining right
Speaker 1: now in St. Louis, but starting to let up a
Speaker 1: little bit. It was really coming down about thirty minutes
Speaker 1: to go. They expect this weather system to blow through.
Speaker 1: More from Tim Neverde and Rick Monday coming up in
Speaker 1: just a couple of minutes. But it looks like the
Speaker 1: crowds starting to file into Bush Stadium. The tarp is
Speaker 1: still on the field. Pitching matchup is a good one,
Speaker 1: Dodgers recalling Justin Robleski from TRIPAA, Oklahoma City. Sonny Gray,
Speaker 1: thirty five year old Veterans, six to one on the season,
Speaker 1: having an all Star first half of the year. He
Speaker 1: will go for the Saint Louis Cardinals and is David
Speaker 1: If I mentioned, we're going to be in a rain delay
Speaker 1: to start this game because the Cardinals don't want to
Speaker 1: burn their ace. Sonny Gray has become the ace of
Speaker 1: this Cardinals rotation, so don't want to burn his start
Speaker 1: tonight on this Friday night, especially against the Dodgers in
Speaker 1: a packed crowd at Bush Stadium expected for the opener
Speaker 1: of this three game set as the Dodgers go into
Speaker 1: play tonight first place atop the Western Division of the
Speaker 1: National League at thirty eight and twenty five. Dodgers two
Speaker 1: games up on the Padres Padres and Milwaukee to take
Speaker 1: on the Brewers, and the Dodgers three games up on
Speaker 1: the San Francisco Giants. The Giants are home tonight to
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Braves. Arizona Diamondbacks, winners of four in a row,
Speaker 1: six and a half games back in the division. The
Speaker 1: big news off the field today in the NL West
Speaker 1: Corbyn burns the Arizona Dinebackers their ace, well, the Diamonbacks
Speaker 1: ace is gonna have Tommy John surgery, ending his first
Speaker 1: season in Arizona. Remember he signed a six year, two
Speaker 1: ten million dollar contract this passed offseason. It ends early
Speaker 1: with Tommy John surgery. So the Dodgers not the only
Speaker 1: team getting bit by the injury bug here in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty five. But good news is some relief in the bullpen.
Speaker 1: It's gonna come back on this road trip. When we
Speaker 1: come back, we'll get you out to Saint Louis. It's
