00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:20.000
<v Speaker 2>you start, tell you finish. For the Dodgers, they finish

6
00:00:20.120 --> 00:00:23.559
<v Speaker 2>off this road trip on a winning note. Hi everybody,

00:00:31.280 --> 00:00:34.640
<v Speaker 2>Thanks for being with us on this hot Sunday afternoon

10
00:00:34.679 --> 00:00:36.119
<v Speaker 2>here in southern California.

00:00:36.159 --> 00:00:37.320
<v Speaker 3>Hopefully you're staying.

12
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:40.240
<v Speaker 2>Cool, either by the pool, by the ocean, inside with

13
00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:42.719
<v Speaker 2>the airon, and maybe just driving around with the air

14
00:00:42.759 --> 00:00:45.640
<v Speaker 2>on wherever you may be. We appreciate you listening here

15
00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:48.560
<v Speaker 2>on Dodger Talk. As the Dodgers get the win three

16
00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:51.079
<v Speaker 2>to two over the Oakland A's, a much needed win

17
00:00:51.119 --> 00:00:53.359
<v Speaker 2>for the Dodgers, who last night snapped a three game

18
00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:56.759
<v Speaker 2>losing streak thanks to Jack flairting the Dodgers erupting for

19
00:00:56.799 --> 00:00:58.759
<v Speaker 2>six runs in the ninth inning and a ten to

20
00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:01.880
<v Speaker 2>nothing shutout win the A's. They come back today. They

21
00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:04.239
<v Speaker 2>get the scoring going right away in the first inning

22
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:07.359
<v Speaker 2>key k Hernandez a two run double. River Ryan gave

23
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:08.799
<v Speaker 2>it up a two run home run in the bottom

24
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:10.760
<v Speaker 2>of the first. The Dodgers would take the lead in

25
00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:14.079
<v Speaker 2>the third on the cabin Vgo RBI single, and then

26
00:01:14.120 --> 00:01:16.079
<v Speaker 2>it was the bullpen the rest of the way after

27
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:19.040
<v Speaker 2>River Ryan left the game with two outs in the

28
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:23.079
<v Speaker 2>fifth inning. An impressive performance from the Dodgers' bullpen today.

29
00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:23.879
<v Speaker 3>It's been up and.

30
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:25.879
<v Speaker 2>Down in the month of July certainly was not very

31
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:29.519
<v Speaker 2>good for the collective group, but the Dodgers bullpen today.

32
00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:33.200
<v Speaker 2>After River Ryan left with the bases loaded, two out,

33
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:36.120
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers clinging to a three to two lead, they go

34
00:01:36.159 --> 00:01:40.040
<v Speaker 2>with Evan Phillips and Evan Phillips, the back end closer

35
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:42.079
<v Speaker 2>at one point of this Dodgers team certainly one of

36
00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:45.079
<v Speaker 2>the high leverage relievers. Out of that Dodgers' bullpen was

37
00:01:45.120 --> 00:01:47.719
<v Speaker 2>called upon to get the final out and get out

38
00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:50.640
<v Speaker 2>of it bases loaded jam against one of the hot

39
00:01:50.799 --> 00:01:53.159
<v Speaker 2>big hitters for the Oakland A's and Brenton Rooker, who

40
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:55.280
<v Speaker 2>already hit a two run home run and has kind

41
00:01:55.280 --> 00:01:58.280
<v Speaker 2>of had his way with the Dodgers this weekend. He

42
00:01:58.319 --> 00:02:00.840
<v Speaker 2>came up with the bases loaded, Evan Phillip strikes him

43
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:02.920
<v Speaker 2>out on four pitches and gets them looking on a

44
00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:07.200
<v Speaker 2>sweeper on the inside corner for strike three, gets out

45
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:10.120
<v Speaker 2>of the bases loaded, jam keeps the Dodgers up three

46
00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:12.919
<v Speaker 2>to two, and then the Dodgers rest of the bullpen

47
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:18.120
<v Speaker 2>puts up zeros. After that, Blake Trinan, Alex Vessia, Daniel Hudson,

48
00:02:18.520 --> 00:02:23.840
<v Speaker 2>Anthony Bonda. The Dodgers' bullpen five relievers combined for four

49
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:28.560
<v Speaker 2>to third shutout innings and six strikeouts. That is exactly

50
00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:31.879
<v Speaker 2>what the Dodgers needed today in a game in which

51
00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:34.919
<v Speaker 2>going into it I mentioned with Jose I looked at

52
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:37.319
<v Speaker 2>the lineup the day Roberts filled out on the scorecard

53
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:40.280
<v Speaker 2>and I thought to myself, Wow, this is gonna be

54
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:43.159
<v Speaker 2>a struggle, I think for this Dodgers to find offense.

55
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:45.840
<v Speaker 2>I know they erupted for ten runs last night, but

56
00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:49.960
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers today had, you know, Keith a Hernandez batting fifth,

57
00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:52.400
<v Speaker 2>Jason Hayward was batting clean up, Gavin lux was in

58
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:55.719
<v Speaker 2>that third spot again, Tay Oscar was batting second behind

59
00:02:55.759 --> 00:02:58.280
<v Speaker 2>the show Hey, he had a line that had Kevin Bigio,

60
00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Amano Rosario, Nick med was in there as well. Afterwards

61
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:07.719
<v Speaker 2>he had Kevin Kiermyer, Austin Barnes. It wasn't murderers row

62
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:11.719
<v Speaker 2>in that, you know, six through nine spot for the Dodgers,

63
00:03:11.759 --> 00:03:17.439
<v Speaker 2>but those guys delivered. Cavin Biegho had a big hit

64
00:03:17.919 --> 00:03:19.840
<v Speaker 2>in the third inning and an RBI single. He had

65
00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:23.319
<v Speaker 2>a sacrifice butt in this game. Some good at bats

66
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:27.199
<v Speaker 2>of a Medeazario. Kevin Kiermyer on base with the walk today,

67
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:29.360
<v Speaker 2>eve though he went over three. Austin Barnes got on

68
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:31.439
<v Speaker 2>base with the walk today even though he was zero

69
00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:35.840
<v Speaker 2>for three. And again it's just keeping the line moving.

70
00:03:35.879 --> 00:03:38.280
<v Speaker 2>The Dodgers did a good job of that early in

71
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:40.759
<v Speaker 2>this game. And then in that third inning with two outs,

72
00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:45.560
<v Speaker 2>Calvin Biegio two strikes, two count, delivers with the single

73
00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:48.599
<v Speaker 2>the middle of scoring Jason Hayward and the Dodgers retake

74
00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:50.680
<v Speaker 2>the lead and they would never give it back, going

75
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:52.319
<v Speaker 2>on and winning by a final of three to two.

76
00:03:52.439 --> 00:03:54.400
<v Speaker 2>Today is one of those days you just kind of

77
00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:57.199
<v Speaker 2>clap your hands and say, that's a great win. Dodgers

78
00:03:57.280 --> 00:03:59.840
<v Speaker 2>bullpen picked them up when they needed him just enough,

79
00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:05.000
<v Speaker 2>and a really good start for River Ryan. Any other situation,

80
00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:07.560
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers. In my opinion, if the Dodgers are up

81
00:04:07.599 --> 00:04:09.120
<v Speaker 2>eight and a half in the Division, nine and a

82
00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:11.400
<v Speaker 2>half of the Division, if this were three weeks ago,

83
00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:16.279
<v Speaker 2>I think Dave Roberts leaves River Ryan out there with

84
00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:18.199
<v Speaker 2>the bases loaded in a three to two game.

85
00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:20.680
<v Speaker 3>Let him figure it out. Let's see what happens.

86
00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:24.160
<v Speaker 2>If damage is done by Brent Rooker, then you're hoping, Okay,

87
00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:26.240
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers offense will get you back in the game.

88
00:04:26.279 --> 00:04:28.319
<v Speaker 2>If you're down, you know, what is it four to

89
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:31.040
<v Speaker 2>two or four to three at that point, or five three,

90
00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:33.480
<v Speaker 2>whatever happens, or it's tied up three to three. Worst

91
00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:37.120
<v Speaker 2>case it's it's that then you're all right because you

92
00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:39.879
<v Speaker 2>let River Ryan go out there and battle through some adversity.

93
00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:42.360
<v Speaker 2>But I think with the way the Dodgers have been

94
00:04:42.360 --> 00:04:45.639
<v Speaker 2>playing on this road trip, especially and getting to that

95
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:48.439
<v Speaker 2>Marcus seventy five pitches and looking at the Rooker what

96
00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:51.839
<v Speaker 2>he's done the first couple of bats against River Ryan,

97
00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:54.199
<v Speaker 2>I think it was the perfect move at the time.

98
00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:58.439
<v Speaker 2>Seventy five pitches, bases loaded, get a fresh sharp there

99
00:04:58.600 --> 00:05:01.720
<v Speaker 2>out there, different r slot with Evan Phillips, a new

100
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:05.160
<v Speaker 2>luck with the sweeper and it worked four pitches to

101
00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:08.439
<v Speaker 2>get Rooker looking on a strike three sweeper and get

102
00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:10.480
<v Speaker 2>out of the jam. But again, I think if this

103
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:13.319
<v Speaker 2>is different situation, the Dodgers weren't up four and a

104
00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:16.519
<v Speaker 2>half games in the division and playing the way they

105
00:05:16.519 --> 00:05:18.560
<v Speaker 2>have been on this road trip, striking out as many

106
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:20.959
<v Speaker 2>times as they have and you know, at times looking

107
00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:23.639
<v Speaker 2>anemick offensively, and the bullpen having the month of July

108
00:05:23.720 --> 00:05:24.240
<v Speaker 2>that they did.

109
00:05:25.160 --> 00:05:28.079
<v Speaker 3>If that wasn't the case, I truly believe River Ryan.

110
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:30.240
<v Speaker 2>Would have gone back out there and got or at

111
00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:33.160
<v Speaker 2>least stayed out there with two outs, bases loaded, to

112
00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:36.360
<v Speaker 2>see what he could do against a Brent Rooker. As

113
00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:38.439
<v Speaker 2>it is, it goes to Evan Phillips. He delivers in

114
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:40.959
<v Speaker 2>the bullpen. After that puts up Zeros as well. Eight

115
00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:43.000
<v Speaker 2>six sixth ninet eighty seven two five to seventy fivet

116
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:45.160
<v Speaker 2>let's hear from Evan Phillips what a job he did.

117
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:49.600
<v Speaker 2>He's taking his criticism that sweeper is a nasty pitch

118
00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:52.360
<v Speaker 2>when it's working and when it's not, and that sliders

119
00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:55.480
<v Speaker 2>flat as well. He gets hit around and he had

120
00:05:55.519 --> 00:05:57.959
<v Speaker 2>a rough July, as did the Dodgers collectively. As a

121
00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:01.279
<v Speaker 2>bullpen but today Evan Phillip was nail strikes out Brent

122
00:06:01.399 --> 00:06:03.079
<v Speaker 2>Rooker with two outs in the bases. Load of jam

123
00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:05.439
<v Speaker 2>to go back up to Oakland's here from Evan Phillips

124
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:07.000
<v Speaker 2>after his great job in the fifth.

125
00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:10.040
<v Speaker 4>I mean, when you look at just your last two outing,

126
00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:11.959
<v Speaker 4>especially here in Oakland, do you feel like you've kind

127
00:06:11.959 --> 00:06:13.560
<v Speaker 4>of turned the page, gotten back to where you want

128
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:14.199
<v Speaker 4>to be on the mound?

129
00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:14.879
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

130
00:06:14.959 --> 00:06:16.879
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I think it's still, you know, generally a work

131
00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:19.600
<v Speaker 6>in progress. I think my objective coming to the field

132
00:06:19.639 --> 00:06:21.800
<v Speaker 6>every days, you know, been the same Mick. I think

133
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:24.560
<v Speaker 6>we've kind of ironed out like a clear plan moving forward.

134
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:27.720
<v Speaker 6>You know, we clarified that if maybe a week ten

135
00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:30.480
<v Speaker 6>days ago, and yeah, she's gonna continue to build on that.

136
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:32.000
<v Speaker 3>But definitely feel like I'm in a better spot.

137
00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:35.040
<v Speaker 4>You find that it's been more mechanical stuff or more

138
00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:37.199
<v Speaker 4>kind of I don't know about game plan, but just

139
00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:38.120
<v Speaker 4>kind of decision making.

140
00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:40.560
<v Speaker 6>It's been a little bit of everything, and I think that's, uh,

141
00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:42.759
<v Speaker 6>you know, that was one of the most frustrating parts

142
00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:45.600
<v Speaker 6>through my hard times that I think if it wasn't

143
00:06:45.600 --> 00:06:48.519
<v Speaker 6>one thing, it was another, and piecing it back together

144
00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:50.639
<v Speaker 6>just took you know, some diligent work and you had

145
00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:53.160
<v Speaker 6>kind of getting under the hood and dissecting things a

146
00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:55.639
<v Speaker 6>bit more closely. And yeah, it's been a bit of

147
00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:59.079
<v Speaker 6>combo of you know, physical mental, But I think once

148
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:01.759
<v Speaker 6>we got the mental side right and then put a

149
00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:04.319
<v Speaker 6>plan in for the physical side, it's coming together pretty

150
00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:09.160
<v Speaker 6>quickly that what is a plan like that entailed when.

151
00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:10.120
<v Speaker 7>You guys are putting it together.

152
00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:12.879
<v Speaker 6>You know, from the mechanical side, it's just kind of

153
00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:14.800
<v Speaker 6>breaking down some video and you know, getting back to

154
00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:17.319
<v Speaker 6>you know, certain feels that I had in my delivery

155
00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:20.759
<v Speaker 6>that were working for me. Uh, ironing those things out

156
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:22.720
<v Speaker 6>in cash play and getting practice work on the mound

157
00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:23.959
<v Speaker 6>before the game, things like that.

158
00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:26.399
<v Speaker 3>And then the mental side, it's really just a you.

159
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:28.720
<v Speaker 6>Know, honest conversation with myself about what I'm trying to

160
00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:31.240
<v Speaker 6>do out there and you know, finding my identity again

161
00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:31.759
<v Speaker 6>as a pitcher.

162
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:34.120
<v Speaker 2>All Right, there's Evan Phillips says he feels like he's

163
00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:38.000
<v Speaker 2>in a good spot mentally and physically mechanically. They've been

164
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:39.839
<v Speaker 2>working on some things the last ten days, and yeah,

165
00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:43.920
<v Speaker 2>the last two outings in Oakland really well. Today exceptionally well,

166
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:47.279
<v Speaker 2>striking out Brent Rooker on four pitches a sweeper off

167
00:07:47.319 --> 00:07:49.560
<v Speaker 2>for a called strike three gets out of a basis

168
00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:52.199
<v Speaker 2>loaded jam. That was huge with this Dodgers team just

169
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:54.839
<v Speaker 2>enough offense with three runs in the first three innings

170
00:07:55.079 --> 00:07:56.439
<v Speaker 2>that carried them the rest of the ways.

171
00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:57.959
<v Speaker 3>They go on to get the victory three to two.

172
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:00.199
<v Speaker 2>Is there now sixty five and forty seven with the

173
00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:02.839
<v Speaker 2>teams behind them in the division also winning today, the

174
00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:05.399
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers maintained their four and a half game lead real quick.

175
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:08.160
<v Speaker 2>Before we get to the phones. Rick and Tim mentioned

176
00:08:08.199 --> 00:08:11.759
<v Speaker 2>it during the game. Just fantastic news Chelsea Freeman and

177
00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Freddie Freeman today announcing on their social media pages just

178
00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:18.360
<v Speaker 2>about two hours ago during the game that after eight

179
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:21.920
<v Speaker 2>long days in the pediatric ICU, the family's going home.

180
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:24.920
<v Speaker 2>That is awesome news. Young Maximus has a long road

181
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:26.920
<v Speaker 2>ahead of him to regain his strength and we learn

182
00:08:26.920 --> 00:08:29.040
<v Speaker 2>how to walk, but they say they are grateful to

183
00:08:29.079 --> 00:08:31.279
<v Speaker 2>have their family back together. Thank God for this miracle.

184
00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:31.680
<v Speaker 3>Amen.

185
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:34.000
<v Speaker 2>Also thank you for their incredible team of doctors and

186
00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:36.440
<v Speaker 2>angel nurses for taking such good care of their boy,

187
00:08:36.759 --> 00:08:39.159
<v Speaker 2>and to their village for helping so much with Charlie

188
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:43.240
<v Speaker 2>and Brandon, their other two kids. Hashtag max strong, So

189
00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:47.080
<v Speaker 2>that is certainly great news and continued prayers for their

190
00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:50.159
<v Speaker 2>family in the rehab now for young Maximus and the

191
00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:53.120
<v Speaker 2>whole entire family as they are now on the road

192
00:08:53.120 --> 00:08:57.039
<v Speaker 2>to recovery after eight scary days in the ICU here

193
00:08:57.039 --> 00:09:01.480
<v Speaker 2>in a southern California hospital. Prayers have been answered, thank God,

194
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:04.360
<v Speaker 2>and they are going home for recovery now. And as

195
00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:07.399
<v Speaker 2>far as Freddy Freeman is concerned, do expect him back

196
00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:10.360
<v Speaker 2>to rejoin this Dodger's team. Dave Roberts eluded pregame that

197
00:09:10.840 --> 00:09:13.120
<v Speaker 2>could be for this Phillies opener tomorrow night.

198
00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:14.679
<v Speaker 3>We'll see you know, hey, when the time is right.

199
00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:17.200
<v Speaker 2>Freddy Freeman will be right family first, and then he'll

200
00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:18.879
<v Speaker 2>come back and help out this Dodgers team during the

201
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:21.679
<v Speaker 2>stretch run. Could see him in Dodger uniform tomorrow, could

202
00:09:21.679 --> 00:09:24.159
<v Speaker 2>see him tuesday. We'll find out certainly a little bit

203
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:26.919
<v Speaker 2>more in the next twenty four hours, but certainly great

204
00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:29.679
<v Speaker 2>news for the Freeman family as they are all going

205
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:33.120
<v Speaker 2>home together, including young Maximus after eight days in the hospital.

206
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:34.440
<v Speaker 2>Let's go out to the phones at eight six, six,

207
00:09:34.519 --> 00:09:36.639
<v Speaker 2>nine eighty seven, two five seventy. Let's go to Eric

208
00:09:36.639 --> 00:09:38.600
<v Speaker 2>in Hollywood it's going to start things off here on

209
00:09:38.639 --> 00:09:39.519
<v Speaker 2>this Sunday afternoon.

210
00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:39.840
<v Speaker 3>What's up?

211
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:42.000
<v Speaker 7>Eric Dodger day.

212
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:45.559
<v Speaker 8>Should whoo Tam. I love it when we win, man,

213
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.000
<v Speaker 8>it's a great feeling. But it has been a very

214
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:50.600
<v Speaker 8>tough road trip. I want to start off by say

215
00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:53.919
<v Speaker 8>Freddy Freeman, that's great news, but you're right having to

216
00:09:53.919 --> 00:09:56.759
<v Speaker 8>take all the time in the world. Family, dust come first,

217
00:09:57.039 --> 00:10:00.600
<v Speaker 8>baseball will be here and we'll go from there. We

218
00:10:00.759 --> 00:10:02.679
<v Speaker 8>just need to get a couple of our ducks in order. Man,

219
00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:04.879
<v Speaker 8>these guys need to step up. They have an opportunity

220
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:07.879
<v Speaker 8>to get at bats, to get to play, and these

221
00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:10.720
<v Speaker 8>guys are starting to kind of feel it a little bit,

222
00:10:10.759 --> 00:10:13.039
<v Speaker 8>you know what. I'm gonna get a chance. Next man up,

223
00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:14.919
<v Speaker 8>next man up, next man up. These are the things

224
00:10:14.919 --> 00:10:17.440
<v Speaker 8>that we need for a playoff series when when somebody

225
00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:19.519
<v Speaker 8>gets hurt, somebody gets can't play a game, that these

226
00:10:19.519 --> 00:10:23.159
<v Speaker 8>guys step in and kick butt. But man, I was

227
00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:25.879
<v Speaker 8>at the precipice, man, but we weren't mosting Matt. But

228
00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:28.679
<v Speaker 8>it's good to see him win thirty thirty four Otadi.

229
00:10:29.200 --> 00:10:30.679
<v Speaker 7>Wow, Man, that's awesome.

230
00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:30.919
<v Speaker 9>Man.

231
00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:33.960
<v Speaker 8>I'm feeling good over here. Tied can't wait for the

232
00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:34.879
<v Speaker 8>next team to come up.

233
00:10:34.960 --> 00:10:37.399
<v Speaker 2>All right, Eric, appreciate it. I feel your excitement. It's

234
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:39.240
<v Speaker 2>good to get a win. The way they did it

235
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:42.080
<v Speaker 2>today was a different way with the bullpen putting Zero's

236
00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:44.919
<v Speaker 2>up for four and third innings. Just enough offense from

237
00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:48.080
<v Speaker 2>his Dodgers lineup today, three runs in the first three innings.

238
00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:50.320
<v Speaker 2>It's all they needed as the Dodgers get the three

239
00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:52.960
<v Speaker 2>to two win. Eight sixty six nine seven two five seventy.

240
00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:55.919
<v Speaker 2>Andy and Lake Elsnor's next up on Dodge Talk. Welcome, Andy,

241
00:10:55.960 --> 00:10:56.399
<v Speaker 2>How you doing?

242
00:10:57.440 --> 00:10:58.399
<v Speaker 10>Hey Tim? How you doing?

243
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:00.720
<v Speaker 7>I just wanted to talk a little bit about it.

244
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:05.159
<v Speaker 7>Pick us on the pitch off Flerty and rollback. They're great.

245
00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:09.159
<v Speaker 7>Pick us once again, Andy Friedman, just awesome. I mean

246
00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:11.159
<v Speaker 7>that's going to help out a lot. I just I

247
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:14.039
<v Speaker 7>see the results yesterday and then today because the bullpen

248
00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:19.399
<v Speaker 7>was fresh what's his name, Phillips and Hudson and that's yeah,

249
00:11:19.399 --> 00:11:22.320
<v Speaker 7>they were all able to just throwzzeros up. But it's

250
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:24.080
<v Speaker 7>going to take that the rest of the way. So

251
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:26.639
<v Speaker 7>I'm excited and I can't wait to see what happens

252
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:27.360
<v Speaker 7>the rest of the year.

253
00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:28.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no doubt about it.

254
00:11:28.440 --> 00:11:32.200
<v Speaker 2>I appreciated Andy Dodgers take two at three in Oakland

255
00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:34.759
<v Speaker 2>as they get the series win with the three to

256
00:11:34.799 --> 00:11:36.639
<v Speaker 2>two win today they get attend to nothing to win

257
00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:39.720
<v Speaker 2>last night. A good job by this Dodgers team, the

258
00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:42.399
<v Speaker 2>group that's there right now, certainly a lot of injuries,

259
00:11:42.440 --> 00:11:44.759
<v Speaker 2>some new faces that have joined this Dodgers team, especially

260
00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:48.159
<v Speaker 2>for this series. You get Michael Kopek joined this Dodgers team.

261
00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:51.240
<v Speaker 2>You saw what Jack Flaherty did. I Meta Rosario join

262
00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:54.799
<v Speaker 2>this Dodgers team this weekend in Oakland. New faces, a

263
00:11:54.879 --> 00:11:58.360
<v Speaker 2>different lineup, especially today with no Will Smith in the lineup.

264
00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:01.679
<v Speaker 2>And this guy's just persevered through this road trip and

265
00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:03.480
<v Speaker 2>fought to win two to three in Oakland. And I

266
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:05.600
<v Speaker 2>say that because this is an A's team that sure

267
00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:08.720
<v Speaker 2>doesn't have the payroll, doesn't have the superstars. Is a

268
00:12:08.799 --> 00:12:12.600
<v Speaker 2>team that's in turmoil, leaving to go to Sacramento, without

269
00:12:12.600 --> 00:12:15.200
<v Speaker 2>a stadium, without a home in Vegas yet and they're

270
00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:16.919
<v Speaker 2>still out there grinding. And they were the one of

271
00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:19.519
<v Speaker 2>the best teams in baseball in the month of July. Well,

272
00:12:19.559 --> 00:12:21.679
<v Speaker 2>on the flip side, the Dodgers were sub five hundred

273
00:12:21.679 --> 00:12:24.120
<v Speaker 2>in the month of July. The bullpen wasn't very good.

274
00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:26.440
<v Speaker 2>And the bullpen had just as many innings as the

275
00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:28.440
<v Speaker 2>starters did in the month of July.

276
00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:30.159
<v Speaker 3>So you caught a red.

277
00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:32.240
<v Speaker 2>Hot Oakland A's team and you take two to three

278
00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:34.600
<v Speaker 2>from them, and now you build that momentum as the

279
00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:37.279
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers now return home for his six game homestand and

280
00:12:37.399 --> 00:12:40.360
<v Speaker 2>three games against the Phillies. I remember when the Dodgers

281
00:12:40.399 --> 00:12:43.159
<v Speaker 2>went to Philadelphia on a road trip before the All

282
00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:45.720
<v Speaker 2>Star Break, And how big was that three game series

283
00:12:45.759 --> 00:12:48.559
<v Speaker 2>in Philadelphia in which the Dodgers kicked it off before

284
00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:50.200
<v Speaker 2>they went to the break and went to Detroit for

285
00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:54.000
<v Speaker 2>three and they lost all three games in Philadelphia, and

286
00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:55.960
<v Speaker 2>it was the end of the world. And it's like, oh, no,

287
00:12:56.000 --> 00:12:58.559
<v Speaker 2>the Phillies are the best team in the National League,

288
00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:01.480
<v Speaker 2>and the Dodgers can't get past the Phillies and just

289
00:13:01.519 --> 00:13:03.279
<v Speaker 2>go ahead and put the Phillies in going to the

290
00:13:03.279 --> 00:13:07.120
<v Speaker 2>World Series. No, the Phillies have lost eight of ten. Folks,

291
00:13:07.519 --> 00:13:10.559
<v Speaker 2>the Phillies are sixty six and forty five. The Dodgers

292
00:13:10.600 --> 00:13:13.120
<v Speaker 2>are sixty five and forty seven. They're virtually neck and

293
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:16.960
<v Speaker 2>neck in wins and losses. And a Dodgers team that's

294
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:19.799
<v Speaker 2>banged up, a Dodgers team that's lost six of ten,

295
00:13:20.120 --> 00:13:22.480
<v Speaker 2>and the Phillies team that's banged up has lost eight

296
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:22.879
<v Speaker 2>of ten.

297
00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:25.120
<v Speaker 3>You're gonna see two teams.

298
00:13:24.759 --> 00:13:26.720
<v Speaker 2>Wanting to get back on track, and this little momentum

299
00:13:26.759 --> 00:13:29.639
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers have for winning these two games against Oakland

300
00:13:29.840 --> 00:13:31.600
<v Speaker 2>will hopefully be something they can carry him into this

301
00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:34.440

<v Speaker 2>eight six sixth ninet eighty seven, two five seventy. Let's

303
00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:40.360

304
00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:41.720
<v Speaker 2>how are you doing on the Sunday afternoon?

305
00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:43.519
<v Speaker 11>Thank you for taking my call.

306
00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:43.759
<v Speaker 1>Hi.

307
00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:46.639
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, I was fortunate enough to be at the World

308
00:13:46.759 --> 00:13:50.240
<v Speaker 11>Series in nineteen seventy four the first time around against

309
00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:52.960
<v Speaker 11>the Athletics, and it was by the Blue and Don

310
00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:55.879
<v Speaker 11>Sutton in that game, and the Dodgers won their only

311
00:13:55.919 --> 00:13:58.039
<v Speaker 11>game of the series that day, three to two.

312
00:13:59.159 --> 00:14:01.480
<v Speaker 2>That was a that was that was not a fun

313
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:03.960
<v Speaker 2>series for the Dodgers, but certainly a memorable one.

314
00:14:04.039 --> 00:14:06.200
<v Speaker 3>One of two World Series played up there at the Coliseum.

315
00:14:07.159 --> 00:14:09.399
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, they thought they got swept, but at least that's

316
00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:10.759
<v Speaker 10>a good that's at least they got.

317
00:14:10.639 --> 00:14:11.240
<v Speaker 11>One game, you know.

318
00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:12.399

<v Speaker 2>You were there, Brad, what about this team? A little

320
00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:16.879
<v Speaker 2>momentum they got now with this group of guys, I.

321
00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:19.799
<v Speaker 10>Like the momentum going into the did they still strike

322
00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:21.960

323

370
00:16:31.600 --> 00:16:36.279
<v Speaker 2>Daniels Jewelers own the dream. The Dodgers bullpen today well,

371
00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:39.200
<v Speaker 2>they claimed ownership of this one four to third combined

372
00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:44.320
<v Speaker 2>innings of just one hit baseball six strikeouts.

373
00:16:43.720 --> 00:16:44.399
<v Speaker 3>Along the way.

374
00:16:44.480 --> 00:16:47.200
<v Speaker 2>The only hit they gave up was a Sun aided

375
00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:50.080
<v Speaker 2>double that Kevin Kiermeyer lost in the Sun and center

376
00:16:50.120 --> 00:16:52.559
<v Speaker 2>field in the sixth inning off Blake Trine, and that

377
00:16:52.759 --> 00:16:55.679
<v Speaker 2>was it. The Dodgers put up zeros the entire time

378
00:16:55.720 --> 00:16:57.519
<v Speaker 2>they were asked to go out there and help out

379
00:16:57.559 --> 00:16:59.360
<v Speaker 2>River Ryan, who went four into two thirty eight to

380
00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:02.240
<v Speaker 2>give a two run on five hits quickly, let's give

381
00:17:02.279 --> 00:17:03.679
<v Speaker 2>you an update on what's happened. It was from as

382
00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:05.440
<v Speaker 2>far as some of the Dodgers that are hurt, we

383
00:17:05.519 --> 00:17:07.720
<v Speaker 2>mentioned Freddie Freeman expected to be back with the Dodgers

384
00:17:07.720 --> 00:17:11.000
<v Speaker 2>in this series against the Phillies. Mookie Betts he has

385
00:17:11.039 --> 00:17:14.000
<v Speaker 2>set a well a tentative date of return of August

386
00:17:14.039 --> 00:17:16.519
<v Speaker 2>twelfth or August thirteenth, that is either the first day

387
00:17:16.599 --> 00:17:19.920
<v Speaker 2>or second game of the next Dodger road trip. So

388
00:17:20.039 --> 00:17:22.759
<v Speaker 2>that is good news to see. Mookie Betts is just

389
00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:26.799
<v Speaker 2>about what a week eight nine days away from returning

390
00:17:26.839 --> 00:17:29.559
<v Speaker 2>to this Dodgers team from the broken hand. Tommy Eman,

391
00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:32.359
<v Speaker 2>who the Dodgers acquired at the deadline from the Cardinals,

392
00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:34.359
<v Speaker 2>is going to go through a SIM game this week

393
00:17:34.400 --> 00:17:36.880
<v Speaker 2>as he works his way back. Walker Bueller he's in

394
00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:40.319
<v Speaker 2>Triple A, Oklahoma City on a rehab assignment. He pitched

395
00:17:40.359 --> 00:17:42.640
<v Speaker 2>on Friday night. He is scheduled to pitch at least

396
00:17:42.680 --> 00:17:45.400
<v Speaker 2>one more time in Triple A, Oklahoma City before the

397
00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:47.240
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers got to make a decision on what to do

398
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:50.359
<v Speaker 2>with Walker Bueller and bringing him back to the rotation,

399
00:17:50.559 --> 00:17:52.319
<v Speaker 2>maybe make him out of the bullpen, whatever they need.

400
00:17:52.359 --> 00:17:54.519
<v Speaker 2>To do, give him more rehab assignments. They got to

401
00:17:54.519 --> 00:17:57.680
<v Speaker 2>figure something out with Walker after his next rehab appearance.

402
00:17:57.799 --> 00:18:01.400
<v Speaker 2>Ryan Brazier, Michael Grove, and Bruce dark All in the

403
00:18:01.400 --> 00:18:04.200
<v Speaker 2>minor leagues at Oka see pitching multiple days, pitching out

404
00:18:04.240 --> 00:18:06.359
<v Speaker 2>of the bullpen and working their way back to help

405
00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:09.519
<v Speaker 2>out this Dodgers' bullpen, and sounds like Michael Grove out

406
00:18:09.559 --> 00:18:12.960
<v Speaker 2>of the three relievers, Michael Grove is probably first up

407
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:15.720
<v Speaker 2>in returning and from I understand it could be this

408
00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:18.680
<v Speaker 2>week on this homestand that we see Michael Grove returning

409
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:21.400
<v Speaker 2>to the Dodgers' bullpen. So yes, the Dodgers added some

410
00:18:21.440 --> 00:18:23.759
<v Speaker 2>pieces at the bullpen. The Dodgers hoping to get a

411
00:18:23.799 --> 00:18:26.599
<v Speaker 2>lot of these pieces back now after injuries the second

412
00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:28.640
<v Speaker 2>half of the season. So we'll start to see some

413
00:18:28.680 --> 00:18:32.759
<v Speaker 2>of some familiar faces out there in the Dodgers lineup

414
00:18:32.799 --> 00:18:36.000
<v Speaker 2>with Freddie Freeman coming back and Max Munsey hopefully on

415
00:18:36.039 --> 00:18:38.200
<v Speaker 2>the horizon, and Mookie Betts coming back.

416
00:18:38.440 --> 00:18:40.480
<v Speaker 3>On the next road trip, Let's go out to Don

417
00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:42.039
<v Speaker 3>in the City of Industry. Welcome Don.

418
00:18:42.039 --> 00:18:46.039
<v Speaker 5>How you doing, Jim Kates, Mister Kates goes to Oakland,

419
00:18:46.359 --> 00:18:49.000
<v Speaker 5>Oh Man, you gotta love it. I'm so happy, you know,

420
00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:52.279
<v Speaker 5>we pull this one out and h first man just

421
00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:54.759
<v Speaker 5>shouts out to Freddie Freeman and his family. God bless

422
00:18:54.839 --> 00:18:57.160
<v Speaker 5>little Max. He's a fighter like his dad. Good for

423
00:18:57.279 --> 00:18:59.960
<v Speaker 5>him and hopefully all doing well.

424
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:00.599
<v Speaker 10>Man.

425
00:19:00.680 --> 00:19:03.880
<v Speaker 5>What about Otani Otani sound the big fish? It's you

426
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:08.400
<v Speaker 5>bonds skillful, thirty and thirty and counting. Yikes, Who knows

427
00:19:08.400 --> 00:19:11.480
<v Speaker 5>where he could get by the end of the season. Tim,

428
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:13.440
<v Speaker 5>I'm feeling good. I'm feeling good. I had a touch

429
00:19:13.480 --> 00:19:14.920
<v Speaker 5>base with my man, Tim Kates.

430
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:17.279
<v Speaker 2>All right, don great to hear your voice as always.

431
00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:21.079
<v Speaker 2>Thirty thirty for Shoho Tani, I honestly think he gets

432
00:19:21.079 --> 00:19:22.640
<v Speaker 2>to forty forty. It's not like I'm going out on

433
00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:24.039
<v Speaker 2>a limon saying that. I just look at how much

434
00:19:24.039 --> 00:19:27.640
<v Speaker 2>times left in the season. It's August fourth. We've virtually got,

435
00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:31.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, two months left in play here in August

436
00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:34.759
<v Speaker 2>and all of September. For Shoeo Tani to get to

437
00:19:34.839 --> 00:19:38.400
<v Speaker 2>forty forty, that is something I believe, barring an injury,

438
00:19:38.680 --> 00:19:41.000
<v Speaker 2>let's hope that doesn't happen, he's going to get to

439
00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:43.839
<v Speaker 2>I think get to very easily. He's sitting on thirty

440
00:19:43.839 --> 00:19:47.119
<v Speaker 2>three home runs he's sitting on thirty one stolen bases.

441
00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:50.599
<v Speaker 2>He can hit seven home runs and get nine more

442
00:19:50.640 --> 00:19:54.240
<v Speaker 2>stolen bases. That's something I truly believe he can do

443
00:19:54.759 --> 00:19:57.359
<v Speaker 2>over the next two months. And to get to forty forty,

444
00:19:57.920 --> 00:20:02.079
<v Speaker 2>that is rare in Major League Baseball. I mean, thirty

445
00:20:02.200 --> 00:20:05.039
<v Speaker 2>thirty is pretty impressive, and the Dodgers have only had

446
00:20:05.079 --> 00:20:10.119
<v Speaker 2>two players do that in their history, ral Mondessey and

447
00:20:10.200 --> 00:20:14.319
<v Speaker 2>Matt Kemp. Ral Mondessey did it twice. Now Shoheo Tani

448
00:20:14.400 --> 00:20:17.400
<v Speaker 2>is the third member of the Dodger organization to do that.

449
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:20.240
<v Speaker 2>But keep in mind the forty to forty club in

450
00:20:20.319 --> 00:20:24.440
<v Speaker 2>Major League Baseball, the history of the game, forty home runs,

451
00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:29.759
<v Speaker 2>forty stolen bases, the history of baseball, one hundred thirty

452
00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:34.920
<v Speaker 2>years of baseball, and you've got five players who have

453
00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:42.839
<v Speaker 2>done it Jose Canseco, Barry Bonds, Alex Rodriguez, Alfonso Soriano,

454
00:20:43.519 --> 00:20:47.799
<v Speaker 2>and last year Ronald Lacuna Junior. Five players in the

455
00:20:47.839 --> 00:20:51.079
<v Speaker 2>history of baseball have done forty forty and it's about

456
00:20:51.119 --> 00:20:54.319
<v Speaker 2>to be six this year with Shohio Tani getting to

457
00:20:54.400 --> 00:20:58.440
<v Speaker 2>forty forty. I believe some point this year, eight sixty

458
00:20:58.440 --> 00:21:00.599
<v Speaker 2>six nine eighty seven to two five. It's going to

459
00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:04.000
<v Speaker 2>Jonathan and Pomona's next up here on Dodger Talking.

460
00:21:04.039 --> 00:21:08.119
<v Speaker 3>Welcome Jonathan, how are you hi? What's going on again?

461
00:21:09.519 --> 00:21:09.720
<v Speaker 12>Good?

462
00:21:09.799 --> 00:21:13.720
<v Speaker 13>I want to talk to you about Will Smith, him

463
00:21:13.759 --> 00:21:16.880
<v Speaker 13>betting too, and him playing behind the plate. I feel

464
00:21:16.920 --> 00:21:19.160
<v Speaker 13>like two is a little two down there with him

465
00:21:19.160 --> 00:21:22.240
<v Speaker 13>playing behind the plate because he takes he takes him

466
00:21:22.240 --> 00:21:24.440
<v Speaker 13>lot of catches. He works hard behind the play and

467
00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:26.920
<v Speaker 13>all the gear, and it's it's been hot and he

468
00:21:27.000 --> 00:21:29.240
<v Speaker 13>finally got a day off today. So that's just what

469
00:21:29.359 --> 00:21:32.519
<v Speaker 13>I want to talk to you about, and also about

470
00:21:32.599 --> 00:21:35.960
<v Speaker 13>do you know when Mookie's coming back or any updates

471
00:21:36.039 --> 00:21:36.440
<v Speaker 13>on him.

472
00:21:36.519 --> 00:21:38.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Mookie's gonna come back on the next road trip

473
00:21:39.119 --> 00:21:42.000
<v Speaker 2>either Monday or Tuesday next week when the Dodgers hit

474
00:21:42.039 --> 00:21:45.000
<v Speaker 2>the road. That's his timetable that he has set. So

475
00:21:45.039 --> 00:21:47.000
<v Speaker 2>we'll see if he's able to stay on that same

476
00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:49.960
<v Speaker 2>timetable and returned. It sounds like it's pretty much on

477
00:21:50.079 --> 00:21:53.039
<v Speaker 2>schedule as to where he was projected to come back

478
00:21:53.119 --> 00:21:55.880
<v Speaker 2>after this broken hand. But you're right on, Jonathan. I

479
00:21:55.880 --> 00:21:57.640
<v Speaker 2>appreciate the phone call. I think you're kind of spot

480
00:21:57.680 --> 00:21:59.799
<v Speaker 2>on there about Will Smith. Being's so high in the

481
00:21:59.839 --> 00:22:03.960
<v Speaker 2>line Wheneverody everybody comes back and the normal slots are

482
00:22:03.960 --> 00:22:07.720
<v Speaker 2>filled with Mookie, you know, Tony and Freddie Freeman, will

483
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:10.279
<v Speaker 2>Smith's going to drop back to either cleanup or five spot.

484
00:22:10.319 --> 00:22:12.920
<v Speaker 2>You might even see tay Oscar back cleanup and Will

485
00:22:12.920 --> 00:22:15.519
<v Speaker 2>Smith dropped to the five spot. If Max Mountz comes back,

486
00:22:15.640 --> 00:22:17.359
<v Speaker 2>you want to add another left handed bat out there,

487
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:19.599
<v Speaker 2>maybe Will Smith can drop to the sixth spot. That's

488
00:22:19.640 --> 00:22:21.880
<v Speaker 2>a pretty potent lineup. If you've got Will Smith went

489
00:22:22.000 --> 00:22:24.720
<v Speaker 2>healthy that in sixth, that's a lot of damage that's

490
00:22:24.759 --> 00:22:26.640
<v Speaker 2>going to get done. And I think you're spot on, Jonathan,

491
00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:29.079
<v Speaker 2>you know your baseball young man. That Yeah, that's a

492
00:22:29.119 --> 00:22:31.279
<v Speaker 2>lot of wear and tear on Will Smith and it

493
00:22:31.279 --> 00:22:34.240
<v Speaker 2>gets him more at bats certainly. But if dropping him

494
00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:36.000
<v Speaker 2>in the lineup would ease a little bit of that

495
00:22:36.000 --> 00:22:38.200
<v Speaker 2>burning on him playing two out of a three games

496
00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:41.079
<v Speaker 2>in a series, then by all means that's something they

497
00:22:41.119 --> 00:22:41.480
<v Speaker 2>need to do.

498
00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:43.039
<v Speaker 3>But I think that they can't do that at this

499
00:22:43.200 --> 00:22:44.119
<v Speaker 3>point just.

500
00:22:44.079 --> 00:22:46.240
<v Speaker 2>Based on where they need his bat in the lineup,

501
00:22:46.440 --> 00:22:50.440
<v Speaker 2>without Freddie Freeman, without Max Mounty, without course Mookie Betts.

502
00:22:50.519 --> 00:22:52.759
<v Speaker 2>But that's going to change when those guys come back

503
00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:54.400
<v Speaker 2>and The first is going to be Freddie Freeman on

504
00:22:54.440 --> 00:22:57.759
<v Speaker 2>this series against the Phillies coming up here beginning tomorrow,

505
00:22:57.799 --> 00:23:00.319
<v Speaker 2>and then Mookie Bets on the next road trip eight

506
00:23:00.839 --> 00:23:02.160
<v Speaker 2>ninety seven seventy.

507
00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:04.680
<v Speaker 3>It's got a Javier in la Is next up. Javier,

508
00:23:04.799 --> 00:23:05.640
<v Speaker 3>Welcome to Dodge Talk.

509
00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:09.400
<v Speaker 14>Hey Tam, hope you having a good day. I do

510
00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:12.640
<v Speaker 14>want to ask you one quick question once everyone comes back.

511
00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:14.880
<v Speaker 14>I would say, like, what, like the end of August,

512
00:23:15.200 --> 00:23:17.799
<v Speaker 14>how do you suggest that outfield that's gonna look like?

513
00:23:18.319 --> 00:23:21.559
<v Speaker 14>Would you keep Ahmed at shorter? Would you keep Mookie

514
00:23:21.559 --> 00:23:22.240
<v Speaker 14>at short.

515
00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:23.160
<v Speaker 3>It's a great question.

516
00:23:23.440 --> 00:23:26.039
<v Speaker 2>I think that's a first world problem to have if

517
00:23:26.039 --> 00:23:28.200
<v Speaker 2>you're the Dodgers, is what to do with all these

518
00:23:28.240 --> 00:23:32.119
<v Speaker 2>healthy bodies once they are all back, and once they

519
00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:35.400
<v Speaker 2>are all back, even including Miguel Rojas. You mentioned nick

520
00:23:35.400 --> 00:23:38.480
<v Speaker 2>on met At playing shortstop. He could be a player

521
00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:41.319
<v Speaker 2>off the bench. You're only gonna have twenty six spots,

522
00:23:41.359 --> 00:23:43.799
<v Speaker 2>so the guys you're seeing right now, there's not gonna

523
00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:45.400
<v Speaker 2>be a lot of room. Nick on met was signed

524
00:23:45.400 --> 00:23:48.160
<v Speaker 2>because they needed desperately somebody to play short stop every day.

525
00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:51.319
<v Speaker 2>When they get Miguel Rojas back, when Mookie Betts comes back.

526
00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:53.759
<v Speaker 2>Is there a role in a spot for nick on

527
00:23:53.839 --> 00:23:56.359
<v Speaker 2>met on this team? We'll find out. What about Calvin

528
00:23:56.400 --> 00:23:58.759
<v Speaker 2>b Show, he's starting to get things going. Where does

529
00:23:58.759 --> 00:24:01.160
<v Speaker 2>he fit? I mean he can play BOLTI positions. He's

530
00:24:01.160 --> 00:24:03.920
<v Speaker 2>sort of her Chris Taylor. But if Chris Taylor's back healthy,

531
00:24:04.519 --> 00:24:07.720
<v Speaker 2>where does he fit? And Cavin Bigio and Keiki a Hernandez,

532
00:24:07.759 --> 00:24:10.920
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna have only twenty six spots in reality, only

533
00:24:10.960 --> 00:24:13.240
<v Speaker 2>a few bench spots with your everyday starters.

534
00:24:13.559 --> 00:24:15.039
<v Speaker 3>You got more bodies than you need.

535
00:24:15.160 --> 00:24:17.160
<v Speaker 2>So it's gonna be a situation where we're gonna see

536
00:24:17.160 --> 00:24:19.000
<v Speaker 2>some of these guys playing right now and starting every

537
00:24:19.079 --> 00:24:22.039
<v Speaker 2>day right now may not be with this team because

538
00:24:22.079 --> 00:24:24.839
<v Speaker 2>when the regular guys get back, they just won't have

539
00:24:24.880 --> 00:24:26.960
<v Speaker 2>any room on the roster for them. But as far

540
00:24:27.039 --> 00:24:28.680
<v Speaker 2>as the outfield is concerned.

541
00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:30.960
<v Speaker 3>I wouldn't mind. I wouldn't hate it.

542
00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:33.240
<v Speaker 2>If Wilkie Betts was playing the outfield again. If Gavin

543
00:24:33.279 --> 00:24:35.119
<v Speaker 2>Lux can stay at second base, and you can keep

544
00:24:35.119 --> 00:24:38.000
<v Speaker 2>a Miguel Rojas at shortstop. I mean Mickey Row when

545
00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:40.640
<v Speaker 2>he was playing short plays a good defensive spot for

546
00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:43.599
<v Speaker 2>you and offensively can get it done. He's seen him

547
00:24:43.640 --> 00:24:45.440
<v Speaker 2>hit the home run. He can put the ball in play.

548
00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:48.119
<v Speaker 2>He can certainly manufacturing runs for you. I don't think

549
00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:50.079
<v Speaker 2>that's a bad guy to have a shortstop playing every

550
00:24:50.119 --> 00:24:52.960
<v Speaker 2>day in September and going into October, no doubt about it.

551
00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:56.119
<v Speaker 2>But again, first world problems if you're the Dodgers to

552
00:24:56.160 --> 00:24:59.519
<v Speaker 2>have an abundance of players and only a certain amount

553
00:24:59.519 --> 00:25:04.400
<v Speaker 2>of rosters going into a healthy roster in September and

554
00:25:04.519 --> 00:25:06.880
<v Speaker 2>to October. Dodgers get the win today three to two

555
00:25:06.920 --> 00:25:08.839
<v Speaker 2>over the Oakland a Is Cavin Beeshield, one of those

556
00:25:08.880 --> 00:25:11.119
<v Speaker 2>guys we're talking about. An RBI single with an O

557
00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:13.519
<v Speaker 2>two count and two outs in the third inning, delivers

558
00:25:13.559 --> 00:25:16.079
<v Speaker 2>gives the Dodgers a three to two lead, scoring Jason Hayward,

559
00:25:16.119 --> 00:25:17.799
<v Speaker 2>who I know has been struggling at the plate, but

560
00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:20.240
<v Speaker 2>he scores on a hustle play to give the Dodgers

561
00:25:20.279 --> 00:25:23.240
<v Speaker 2>the three to two lead, and the Dodgers bullpen proves

562
00:25:23.279 --> 00:25:26.079
<v Speaker 2>to be the difference, putting up zeros after having Phillips

563
00:25:26.119 --> 00:25:29.119
<v Speaker 2>Blake trying, Alex Vesia, Daniel Hudson, an Anthi Bonda come

564
00:25:29.160 --> 00:25:31.000
<v Speaker 2>in for the Dodgers. Can we real quick here from

565
00:25:31.039 --> 00:25:32.559
<v Speaker 2>River Ryan Colin, what do you think we have time

566
00:25:32.559 --> 00:25:35.240
<v Speaker 2>to do that. River Ryan made his third start today

567
00:25:35.240 --> 00:25:37.440
<v Speaker 2>for the Dodgers, give up a two run home run

568
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:39.640
<v Speaker 2>the first inning, with four and two third innings, two runs,

569
00:25:39.640 --> 00:25:41.880
<v Speaker 2>five hits, four strikeouts, got bailed out of a jam

570
00:25:41.920 --> 00:25:43.960
<v Speaker 2>by Evan Phillips with the bases loaded in two outs

571
00:25:43.960 --> 00:25:46.400
<v Speaker 2>by Phillips striking out Brent Rooker. Let's head back up

572
00:25:46.440 --> 00:25:49.319
<v Speaker 2>to Oakland. Let's hear from River Ryan after his performance today.

573
00:25:49.720 --> 00:25:51.599
<v Speaker 4>Hi, River, just when you look at this outing today

574
00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:52.799
<v Speaker 4>and kind of how'd you feel out there? And just

575
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:54.079
<v Speaker 4>how would you assess how it went?

576
00:25:55.640 --> 00:25:58.920
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, going into the game, warming up in the bullpen,

577
00:25:59.079 --> 00:26:00.680
<v Speaker 12>I kind of knew I wasn't gonna my best stuff today.

578
00:26:00.720 --> 00:26:02.880
<v Speaker 12>I felt a little tired, but I just went out

579
00:26:02.880 --> 00:26:04.400
<v Speaker 12>there and tried to execute the best my ability and

580
00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:05.400
<v Speaker 12>give our team a chance to win.

581
00:26:05.599 --> 00:26:06.759
<v Speaker 1>What do you think led to just?

582
00:26:06.880 --> 00:26:07.480
<v Speaker 11>What was it?

583
00:26:07.559 --> 00:26:08.440
<v Speaker 4>Body tiredness?

584
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:09.799
<v Speaker 3>I guess what do you think maybe led to that?

585
00:26:09.920 --> 00:26:10.519
<v Speaker 1>Going into it?

586
00:26:11.119 --> 00:26:12.920
<v Speaker 12>I really don't know, just kind of one of those

587
00:26:12.960 --> 00:26:14.839
<v Speaker 12>days I had to fight through it, but was able

588
00:26:14.880 --> 00:26:15.880
<v Speaker 12>to do that and we got.

589
00:26:15.720 --> 00:26:18.160
<v Speaker 2>The w So of those things that Dave States kind of

590
00:26:18.160 --> 00:26:20.720
<v Speaker 2>pushed you further than you've pitched with the while Is

591
00:26:20.720 --> 00:26:21.359
<v Speaker 2>that sort of like.

592
00:26:21.440 --> 00:26:23.680
<v Speaker 3>Something me bouncing back from that feeling that a little bit?

593
00:26:23.839 --> 00:26:25.440
<v Speaker 12>I mean, there's a chance, but I mean it's just

594
00:26:25.519 --> 00:26:27.079
<v Speaker 12>it was at the end of the day, You're gonna

595
00:26:27.079 --> 00:26:29.039
<v Speaker 12>have good days and have bad days. Some days you're

596
00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:30.880
<v Speaker 12>not gonna have your best stuff, and today was one

597
00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:32.839
<v Speaker 12>of those days. But I knew going out there all

598
00:26:32.839 --> 00:26:34.559
<v Speaker 12>I had to do was try to execute and give

599
00:26:34.599 --> 00:26:35.920
<v Speaker 12>our team best chance to win the game.

600
00:26:35.920 --> 00:26:36.759
<v Speaker 3>And I feel like I did that.

601
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:39.319
<v Speaker 4>Is it encouraging just knowing when you don't feel like

602
00:26:39.319 --> 00:26:41.720
<v Speaker 4>you have your best stuff only in giving up two runs,

603
00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:43.039
<v Speaker 4>Is that's it?

604
00:26:43.359 --> 00:26:43.599
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

605
00:26:43.680 --> 00:26:45.000
<v Speaker 3>No, that's It's definitely nice.

606
00:26:46.279 --> 00:26:48.160
<v Speaker 12>Like I said a minute ago, you just got to

607
00:26:48.200 --> 00:26:49.559
<v Speaker 12>go out there when you're not feeling your best and

608
00:26:49.599 --> 00:26:52.400
<v Speaker 12>just try to execute and kind of let them get

609
00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:55.160
<v Speaker 12>themselves out. But yeah, it's really nice knowing I didn't

610
00:26:55.160 --> 00:26:56.279
<v Speaker 12>have my best stuff and was able to get through

611
00:26:56.279 --> 00:26:57.319
<v Speaker 12>it today with just two runs.

612
00:26:57.400 --> 00:26:59.920
<v Speaker 2>All Right, there's river Ryan didn't have his best stuff, tie,

613
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:02.000
<v Speaker 2>but goes out there and gives the Dodgers four and

614
00:27:02.039 --> 00:27:04.920
<v Speaker 2>two third innings, two runs, five hits, four strikeouts, and

615
00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:06.880
<v Speaker 2>he gets a no decision. But the Dodgers get the

616
00:27:06.920 --> 00:27:08.960
<v Speaker 2>victory over the Oakland A's. Let's wrap things up with

617
00:27:09.200 --> 00:27:12.759
<v Speaker 2>isy Isy the Dodgers get the win too, straight over

618
00:27:12.799 --> 00:27:16.119
<v Speaker 2>the A's. You gotta be feeling good, huge, huge series

619
00:27:16.160 --> 00:27:17.319
<v Speaker 2>against the Phillies coming up.

620
00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:20.480
<v Speaker 15>Yeah, well, you know what, I can't hope they at

621
00:27:20.559 --> 00:27:22.880
<v Speaker 15>least win two hours three but my kids and she

622

<v Speaker 15>lives in Philly and she's a Philly thing now anyways,

623
00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:30.119
<v Speaker 15>but yeah, anyway, yeah, I gotta deal with that with

624
00:27:30.319 --> 00:27:34.079
<v Speaker 15>her during the holiday. But anyway, Yeah, it's fine. So

<v Speaker 15>I'm still done. I've been done Puss in Detroit now,

626
00:27:38.079 --> 00:27:41.839
<v Speaker 15>so anyway, but yeah, hey, I'm happy. I you know,

627
00:27:42.279 --> 00:27:45.319
<v Speaker 15>I know they've been too injury and what they need

628
00:27:45.599 --> 00:27:48.559
<v Speaker 15>is I'm glad there. I'm fledging three minutes and it's

629
00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:49.599
<v Speaker 15>I'm back home.

630
00:27:49.960 --> 00:27:52.400
<v Speaker 10>That's the most important thing.

631
00:27:52.519 --> 00:27:56.119
<v Speaker 15>So we'll move to get back and the dog. He'll

632
00:27:56.200 --> 00:27:58.759
<v Speaker 15>be back. They'll be fine. But I'm still done, Tim,

633
00:27:58.880 --> 00:28:02.480
<v Speaker 15>so heyway all right, Yeah, we'll find.

634
00:28:02.279 --> 00:28:03.960
<v Speaker 3>Out how this series goes. Let's hope they can win

635
00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:04.440
<v Speaker 3>it for you.

636
00:28:05.160 --> 00:28:07.720
<v Speaker 2>So you have a control over your cousin there, who's

637
00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:11.559
<v Speaker 2>a big, big bragging rights over her from Philadelphia. So

638
00:28:11.559 --> 00:28:13.240
<v Speaker 2>if that's one reason for the Dodgers to win. It's

639
00:28:13.240 --> 00:28:15.480
<v Speaker 2>for Izzy Tad bragging rights over her cousin.

640
00:28:15.559 --> 00:28:16.839
<v Speaker 3>So I don't know.

641
00:28:16.759 --> 00:28:18.839
<v Speaker 2>Why she's done Colin. I don't know why she says

642
00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:21.480
<v Speaker 2>she's done with the Dodgers. I get the frustration before

643
00:28:21.480 --> 00:28:23.759
<v Speaker 2>the All Star break, but they went one, six to

644
00:28:23.799 --> 00:28:27.039
<v Speaker 2>seven to start at home that the opening series. Certainly,

645
00:28:27.079 --> 00:28:28.599
<v Speaker 2>a three and five road trip is a tough thing

646
00:28:28.599 --> 00:28:30.160
<v Speaker 2>for the Dodgers. But you in on a winning note

647
00:28:30.160 --> 00:28:31.799
<v Speaker 2>and you win too, straight over the Oakland A's and

648
00:28:31.799 --> 00:28:33.519
<v Speaker 2>now you come back to Dodger Stadium. You're going to

649
00:28:33.599 --> 00:28:36.079
<v Speaker 2>get back Freddie Freeman next road trip. Mookie Betts is

650
00:28:36.079 --> 00:28:37.960
<v Speaker 2>on the horizon schedule to come back. You're gonna start

651
00:28:37.960 --> 00:28:40.480
<v Speaker 2>seeing more of these Dodger bullpen arms like Michael Grove

652
00:28:40.519 --> 00:28:43.680
<v Speaker 2>and Bruce dark Grattarol and Ryan Brasier made their return

653
00:28:43.720 --> 00:28:47.720
<v Speaker 2>as well. So time to be positive and big things

654
00:28:47.720 --> 00:28:49.640
<v Speaker 2>on the horizon for the Dodgers is they get healthy

655
00:28:49.680 --> 00:28:52.279
<v Speaker 2>here in August and the down the final stretch. That's
