Let's not play 4 00:00:10.199 --> 00:00:11.599 one on Tom. Let's win this. 5 00:00:11.919 --> 00:00:13.679 I love writing me these guys after the show. 6 00:00:13.839 --> 00:00:14.439 So just thank you. 7 00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:17.480 Give me are your attention, your fire and not a pisson. 8 00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:21.440 This is world champion, Dodgers, world champion thing. 9 00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:22.719 It put a small soft time. 10 00:00:22.760 --> 00:00:24.039 They get up people what they want to. 11 00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:26.600 Die too in a row two is special.

David Vase 22 00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:07.799 with you until midnight tonight, taking your phone calls at 23 00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:11.319 eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy. We 24 00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:14.439 have a full line of calls that we're gonna get 25 00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:18.000 to and just be patient because I know this was 26 00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:20.640 one of those games that everybody wants to share their 27 00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:25.640 opinions and emotions on, and certainly emotions spilled over from 28 00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:29.599 the Padres side of things, as they always seem to do. 29 00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:34.239 Let's be quite honest, how many times over the course 30 00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:38.480 of the last five years, has it been the Dodgers 31 00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:43.280 that have started something between them and the Padres. Whether 32 00:01:43.319 --> 00:01:46.799 it's Andy Green being the manager of the Padres, whether 33 00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:51.640 it's Fernando Tattis Junior, or Manny Machado or now Mike 34 00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:56.959 shild it always seems to spill over from that dugout. 35 00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:00.359 You don't really see anybody spill over and let the 36 00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:02.079 emotions run high from the. 37 00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:03.280 Dodgers side of things. 38 00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:09.680 That's a complex the Padres have, similar to the Sacramento Kings. 39 00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:13.520 That was their complex against the Lakers from two thousand 40 00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:16.879 to two thousand and five because they wanted to beat 41 00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:21.680 Big Brothers so bad, but they always came up short. 42 00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:27.240 And that's been the reality. That's been the reality for 43 00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:31.199 the Padres. No matter how much they want to bow up, 44 00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:35.240 they always come up short against the Dodgers. Whether it 45 00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:38.879 was twenty twenty in the bubble, whether it's twenty twenty 46 00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:41.800 in the regular season. You know, the only time the 47 00:02:41.879 --> 00:02:47.599 Padres really were able to land a jab was during 48 00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:52.000 the twenty twenty two NLDS when they beat the Dodgers 49 00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:55.879 in that series. And I've gone through my side of things, 50 00:02:56.199 --> 00:03:01.039 I never thought the Dodgers really took that series as 51 00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:04.000 seriously as they should have. But nonetheless, the Padres did 52 00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:07.960 beat them, and that gave them confidence to believe that 53 00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:10.639 they belong on the same field with the Dodgers. And 54 00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:14.520 they almost beat him again last year, but the emotions 55 00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:17.280 got the best of them. Manny Machado throwing the ball 56 00:03:17.319 --> 00:03:22.240 at Dave Roberts in the dugout, the Padres realizing where 57 00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:25.039 they were, and all of a sudden their offense went 58 00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:30.639 extremely cold. Mike shilt Aj Preller wanting to have Dylan 59 00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:35.240 c start, you know, instead of Martine Perez last year. 60 00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:38.280 So there were a lot of different. 61 00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:41.120 Things, and emotions always seemed to get the best of 62 00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:44.560 the Padres, and they did again tonight, and it may 63 00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:48.479 even cost them their closer for a few games, because 64 00:03:48.520 --> 00:03:51.919 their closer hit the face of Major League Baseball tonight 65 00:03:52.039 --> 00:03:56.400 in retaliation and not only did a right handed reliever 66 00:03:56.680 --> 00:04:00.319 like Robert Suarez hit shoe a Otani, he went above 67 00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:05.400 the shoulders between the one and the seven to hit Otani. 68 00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:10.840 That was extremely too close to the head. You don't 69 00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:15.319 do that. That's an unwritten rule. You do what Randy 70 00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:18.560 Vasquez did. You go below the waist, You hit him 71 00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:20.839 in the thigh, you hit him in the hamstring like 72 00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:23.439 he did the second game of the series. 73 00:04:23.480 --> 00:04:27.879 But if we're keeping score here, Mike Shilt, if. 74 00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:30.680 You're driving back to San Diego right now and you're 75 00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:35.000 keeping score, because you obviously are, and yes, the Dodgers 76 00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:40.519 did hit Fernando Tattis Junior unintentionally three times in seven games, 77 00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:45.680 so you're keeping score. So let's keep this score. You 78 00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:52.240 and your pitchers intentionally hit the best player in Major 79 00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:55.879 League Baseball twice, and in fact, you did it in 80 00:04:55.920 --> 00:05:01.040 a sloppy way. Randy Vasquez had two shots at O'tani 81 00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:04.160 on Tuesday night, another unwritten rule. 82 00:05:04.279 --> 00:05:07.560 You get one shot. He missed it. He went again. 83 00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:11.639 And then tonight Robert Suarez a three to zero with 84 00:05:11.720 --> 00:05:15.600 two outs and Miguel Rojas on deck instead of Mookie Betts, 85 00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:19.319 and he goes above the waist and above the shoulder 86 00:05:19.439 --> 00:05:20.439 area right there. 87 00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:22.600 Come on, if we're. 88 00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:26.800 Keeping score and we're baseball men here, you should know 89 00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:30.680 that was over the line. Now, I will say this 90 00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:34.360 in defense of the Padres. And like I mentioned during 91 00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:38.600 the Clubhouse Show, I was furious at the Dodgers' pitching 92 00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:43.879 staff for not protecting their hitters against the Cardinals during 93 00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:48.600 the twenty thirteen season and the twenty fourteen season. We 94 00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:52.399 all remember Joe Kelly, everybody's favorite son now in La 95 00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:56.920 Mariachi Joe. Yeah, it was Joe Kelly that broke Hanley 96 00:05:57.000 --> 00:06:01.079 Ramirez's ribs and changed the complexion of that NLCS in 97 00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:06.680 twenty thirteen because that entire twenty thirteen season, the Cardinals 98 00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:10.240 were doing what the Dodgers were doing in these seven games, 99 00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:14.680 pitching inside aggressively, and if they hit tattoos, they hit tattoos. Sorry, 100 00:06:14.759 --> 00:06:20.519 Luke Trevino, Sorry, you know little here, but if you 101 00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:24.639 can't command the pitches inside, don't go in there. And 102 00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:29.120 I was furious at the Dodgers for not retaliating a 103 00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:32.000 few different times during the regular season, and I was 104 00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:35.000 upset during the NLCS they did not, you know, hit 105 00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:41.120 another Cardinals batter during that NLCS. It took the Cardinals 106 00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:45.040 hitting whoever during the twenty fourteen season. I can't remember 107 00:06:45.079 --> 00:06:48.560 even who it was for Clayton Kershaw to hit Matt Holiday. 108 00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:51.639 That was the first and only time. So I don't 109 00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:55.000 have a problem with protecting your superstar, but do it 110 00:06:55.000 --> 00:06:58.040 the right way. Eight six six nine eight seven two 111 00:06:58.079 --> 00:07:00.959 five seventy is the phone number. Let's go out to 112 00:07:01.040 --> 00:07:03.759 Ben and see me Valley. You're on Dodger Talk with 113 00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:04.920 David vasse Hi. 114 00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:08.639 Ben Hi, David, Yeah, thanks for taking my call. 115 00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:08.920 Man. 116 00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:12.959 Listen. I love when dust up like this happened. As 117 00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:15.399 a fan, I feel like this was a long time coming. 118 00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:18.639 Like I can't wait to hear all the other callers 119 00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:22.839 reactions tonight. I can't wait for, you know, John Boyd 120 00:07:22.839 --> 00:07:25.079 to make one of those lip reading videos so I 121 00:07:25.079 --> 00:07:27.680 can watch it. You know, I've been on hold for 122 00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:30.439 a half hour writing down all my thoughts like a 123 00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:34.519 like a madman, you know, just waiting to talk to you. 124 00:07:34.600 --> 00:07:38.000 But just look at the differences between these two teams. 125 00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:42.959 I think, for example, look at Otani's reaction to being 126 00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:48.199 themed twice, which was clearly intentional, like no question about it, 127 00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:54.720 and then watched Katis Junior and Mike schilt overreacts like divas, 128 00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:59.680 like I can't imagine that, And you know, I think 129 00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:02.560 it was very telling how even when Tatis was hit tonight, 130 00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:06.439 Shilt ran out and just started pointing the finger at 131 00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:10.079 Dave Roberts instead of even checking on his guys, Like, 132 00:08:10.120 --> 00:08:12.399 has this guy just been so tired of coming in 133 00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:16.160 second place for a couple of years now that he's 134 00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:21.319 just resorting to these bush league tactics trying to galvanize 135 00:08:21.360 --> 00:08:25.040 his sorry team or something. That's that's the impression that 136 00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:25.600 I'm getting. 137 00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:27.519 Yeah, I agree with you. 138 00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:31.160 And look, Mike Shilt crossed the line as well, the 139 00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:34.240 way he went after Dave Roberts and even some of 140 00:08:34.279 --> 00:08:39.120 his postgame comments saying enough is enough. I mean, you 141 00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:42.279 don't go after show Aotani the way they did. You 142 00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:45.200 have to recognize what's going on in the game. Do 143 00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:49.519 they really believe that Jack Little, making his major league 144 00:08:49.559 --> 00:08:54.320 debut was hitting Tatis Junior on purpose? I mean, it's 145 00:08:54.360 --> 00:08:56.679 one thing to be upset and rightfully so that he 146 00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:00.879 got hit again, But you're gonna go after Dave Roberts 147 00:09:00.919 --> 00:09:04.159 as if he ordered that. I mean, come on, and 148 00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:07.639 here's another part of this equation. And I'm also mentioned 149 00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:10.639 this during the Clubhouse Show when Mark McGuire was the 150 00:09:10.679 --> 00:09:13.879 Dodgers hitting coach. He talked to me about how guys 151 00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:18.000 get hit in the hands because they have not been 152 00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:19.840 taught the proper. 153 00:09:19.519 --> 00:09:22.320 Way on how to get out of the way of pitches. 154 00:09:23.000 --> 00:09:27.480 If Tatish Junior just turns his back the way Otani did, 155 00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:32.879 his hands don't get hit. They were compromised. It's simple 156 00:09:32.919 --> 00:09:35.279 as that. It was a fastball. I don't know why 157 00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:37.879 he's trying to dive into the pitch now. I'm not 158 00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:40.159 happy about him getting hit on the hands, and I'm 159 00:09:40.159 --> 00:09:43.240 not saying he deserved getting hit on the hands, but 160 00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:45.840 the fact is he didn't try to get out of 161 00:09:45.879 --> 00:09:50.919 the way the right way. O'tani was textbook in that matter, 162 00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:53.039 just like he is in a lot of different ways. 163 00:09:53.440 --> 00:09:57.039 And I love the way Otani was basically taunting the 164 00:09:57.080 --> 00:10:00.919 padres and laughing at him in some way, you know, 165 00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:04.600 playing his mind games instead of giving them what they wanted. 166 00:10:04.919 --> 00:10:10.480 And that was the outrageous emotional reaction. 167 00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:11.080 That they had. 168 00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:16.240 I mean, the way Otani kept his team in check 169 00:10:16.919 --> 00:10:20.240 was pretty masterful. And here's what Mike Schild had to 170 00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:25.720 say after the game tonight, as he basically spelled out that, 171 00:10:25.960 --> 00:10:29.600 you know, Robert Suarez go ahead and hit Otani again. 172 00:10:29.879 --> 00:10:33.159 Did you did you think the pitch was intentional to 173 00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:34.960 hit Tatista tonight in that spot. 174 00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:39.759 I'd like to think not, but I can't say that. 175 00:10:40.480 --> 00:10:43.519 Only a couple of people know that. And whether it 176 00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:47.679 was or it wasn't, enough is enough. You know, we 177 00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:49.759 got a guy who's getting X rays right now. It's 178 00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:52.200 one of the best players in the game, of course, 179 00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:57.000 on our team. And this guy's get has taken shots, okay, 180 00:10:57.519 --> 00:11:01.480 and before the series, you know we had and I 181 00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:04.759 can back this up with complete evidence. You know, track 182 00:11:04.759 --> 00:11:07.799 records speak for themselves. The teams that I'm managed don't 183 00:11:07.799 --> 00:11:10.159 get into alter casey this because teams I'm managed don't 184 00:11:10.200 --> 00:11:13.879 throw at people. But also teams I've managed don't take anything. 185 00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:15.960 And after a while, I'm not going to take it, 186 00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:17.679 and I'm not going to take it on behalf of Toddy. 187 00:11:17.679 --> 00:11:19.080 I'm not going to take it on behalf of our team. 188 00:11:19.120 --> 00:11:22.480 Intentional aren't intentional, truly, That's simple. That's how this game's play. 189 00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:24.360 And you want to call that old school, then yeah, 190 00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:25.159 we'll play old school. 191 00:11:25.200 --> 00:11:25.559 Baseball. 192 00:11:27.080 --> 00:11:30.519 Yeah, well, Mike Schild, what about old school baseball where 193 00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:33.039 you only get one shot to hit a player and 194 00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:36.399 you don't go close to the shoulder head area when 195 00:11:36.440 --> 00:11:39.960 you try to hit somebody intentionally or unintentionally. 196 00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:43.759 Is he serious? He doesn't even know what he's saying. 197 00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:47.720 He's saying on one hand, he isn't sure whether or 198 00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:51.799 not Jack Little hit Tattoos Junior on purpose, which he didn't. 199 00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:52.639 Are you kidding me? 200 00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:55.799 Do you think Jack Little's coming into the game and 201 00:11:55.960 --> 00:12:00.279 being told to hit Fernando Tattoos Junior. If you look 202 00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:03.240 at the track record of Dave Roberts and the Dodgers 203 00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:07.120 since Andrew Freeman and him took over, they actually go 204 00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:11.360 the complete opposite and discourage that type of stuff from happening. 205 00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:14.919 Dave doesn't want to be ejected. He actually gets mad 206 00:12:14.960 --> 00:12:17.879 at me when I tell him you should be ejected sometimes, 207 00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:21.559 and he doesn't want to do that. But when the 208 00:12:21.600 --> 00:12:25.519 opposing manager is like going nuts and losing his mind, 209 00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:28.960 what's he supposed to do? Just sit there? No, He's 210 00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:32.399 gonna defend himself and defend his team. I mean, come on, 211 00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:35.519 it was clear the Dodgers and I don't want to 212 00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:38.360 use the word punt because they weren't punting on the game, 213 00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:42.600 but they clearly saw that the Padres were in hand 214 00:12:42.639 --> 00:12:45.559 of this game five to nothing going into the ninth inning, 215 00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:50.039 or he wouldn't have pinch hit you know, Rojas and 216 00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:53.399 rushing and keyk a Hernandez. I mean, does Mike Shildt 217 00:12:53.559 --> 00:12:56.240 understand what was going on in this game? We're gonna 218 00:12:56.279 --> 00:12:59.240 empty our guys, but uh, you know we're gonna let 219 00:12:59.360 --> 00:13:02.639 Jack Little, making his major league debut hit your guy 220 00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:06.600 on purpose. Hey, I'm a big believer if you can't 221 00:13:06.639 --> 00:13:10.480 command pitching inside, you shouldn't do it. But for Mike 222 00:13:10.600 --> 00:13:13.840 Shildt to say what he said, enough is enough? 223 00:13:14.159 --> 00:13:16.799 I mean, what is enough? I mean, come on. 224 00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:20.720 I talked to Luke Trevino too the day after all 225 00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:23.559 that stuff happened on Tuesday night, and he said, look, 226 00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:27.039 I understand the optics, it doesn't look good, but I'm 227 00:13:27.039 --> 00:13:30.799 not trying to hit Tattoos Junior on purpose. I mean, 228 00:13:30.879 --> 00:13:35.960 Mike shilt again, overly emotional, and it always comes from 229 00:13:35.960 --> 00:13:40.679 that Padres dugout. They got that Rick Adelman, Mike Bibby 230 00:13:40.879 --> 00:13:46.440 inferiority complex. They got it, Chris Weber, all those guys. 231 00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:50.240 That's who the Padres are. And you know what, the 232 00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:54.320 Sacramento Kings never won a World or NBA championship, and 233 00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:57.399 the Padres are further from it than they were even 234 00:13:57.440 --> 00:13:59.960 a year ago. You want to talk about old sc 235 00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:04.039 well baseball, Mike Schilt, you're contradicting yourself. Eight six six 236 00:14:04.600 --> 00:14:07.759 seven two five seventy is the phone number. Let's go 237 00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:10.960 out to Sheldon who was at Dodgers Stadium tonight. Sheldon, 238 00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:13.480 where were your seats in the ninth inning? 239 00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:17.200 I was sitting one twenty load, so I had a 240 00:14:17.200 --> 00:14:21.360 great view of Mike Schilt crying every time at ball 241 00:14:21.799 --> 00:14:24.799 buzz by Tattos. I saw it when Travino was pitching. 242 00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:28.720 I saw it obviously when the poor little was pitching. 243 00:14:29.960 --> 00:14:32.639 I just think it's Bushley, because let's not forget they 244 00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:37.919 also hit powheads right behind the numbers two once, you know, 245 00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:40.919 two days ago, and then again yesterday, and you didn't 246 00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:42.399 see anyone handled it perfectly. 247 00:14:42.440 --> 00:14:43.799 And he didn't, he didn't. 248 00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:46.039 Get over emotional. He handled it perfectly. 249 00:14:47.159 --> 00:14:49.720 Yeah, the Padres are just so focused on the Dodgers 250 00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:52.440 that you saw that Shilt looking for a way to 251 00:14:52.519 --> 00:14:53.080 go attack. 252 00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:55.679 And that's a great way to put it. That's a 253 00:14:55.679 --> 00:14:56.600 great way to put it. 254 00:14:56.639 --> 00:15:00.360 The Dodgers are living rent free in Mike Shields head 255 00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:04.960 since last year's NLDS living rent free. 256 00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:08.399 You just cannot hit Atani three and oh wait until 257 00:15:08.440 --> 00:15:10.279 the next series, you cannot hit him three and oh 258 00:15:10.360 --> 00:15:11.159 that's just Bushley. 259 00:15:12.679 --> 00:15:14.759 Suarez should be suspended ten games. 260 00:15:15.120 --> 00:15:17.759 Mike Shildt after what I just heard right there, and 261 00:15:17.840 --> 00:15:21.639 I know major League Baseball listens to all these postgame quotes, 262 00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:26.519 Mike Shilt should be suspended for basically admitting that he 263 00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:30.480 may have ordered Roberts Suarez to hit O'tani and Randy 264 00:15:30.559 --> 00:15:33.200 Vasquez to hit Otani. I mean, I don't know what 265 00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:38.240 other evidence you need. They he should be suspended for 266 00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:43.480 ordering that. And you know, Dave Roberts, by the way, 267 00:15:44.120 --> 00:15:46.759 didn't bump an umpire. If you bump an umpire, it's 268 00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:51.200 an automatic suspension. He bumped Mike Shilt. He may have 269 00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:54.200 tripped on the grass. I don't even know. But just 270 00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:57.919 because you bumped barely doesn't mean you should be suspended. 271 00:15:57.919 --> 00:16:01.559 And Dave Roberts did not order anybody to be hit. Hey, 272 00:16:01.559 --> 00:16:04.600 thanks for the phone call, Sheldon appreciated. Eight six six 273 00:16:05.120 --> 00:16:07.840 seven two five seventy is the phone number. We got 274 00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:10.440 a lot, a lot of calls coming in. Colin will 275 00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:13.519 get to you in a second, so be patient. Let's 276 00:16:13.519 --> 00:16:16.559 go out to Eugene. Jeff, you're on Dodger Talk with 277 00:16:16.720 --> 00:16:17.639 David vasse Hi. 278 00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:22.120 Jeff, Hey, David, how are you hey? 279 00:16:22.720 --> 00:16:24.000 Fired up tonight? Jeff? 280 00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:28.159 I just wanted to talk to you about Dalton rushing 281 00:16:28.360 --> 00:16:30.039 his at bat in the ninth inning. 282 00:16:30.039 --> 00:16:32.879 I mean, he got five pitches and somehow ended up 283 00:16:32.919 --> 00:16:34.519 with three two count I mean, how do you. 284 00:16:34.519 --> 00:16:36.919 Feel about that? Well? 285 00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:40.240 I thought Marvin Hudson called a strike on a pitch 286 00:16:40.320 --> 00:16:43.799 that was outside and it kind of, I wouldn't say 287 00:16:43.840 --> 00:16:47.639 it kind of frustrated him, but certainly he knew it 288 00:16:47.759 --> 00:16:49.240 was a ball and. 289 00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:50.480 That kind of changed the at bat. 290 00:16:50.840 --> 00:16:52.799 But you know, I'll say this, it would have been 291 00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:55.600 nice to have Mookie Betts and Will Smith in that spot. 292 00:16:55.639 --> 00:16:58.679 Albeit Rojas was able to draw a two out walk, 293 00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:01.360 but it would have been nice to have Will Smith there. 294 00:17:01.440 --> 00:17:04.000 And you know, I understand Dave Roberts wanting to give 295 00:17:04.039 --> 00:17:07.279 guys rest, but what's the difference if you're taking them 296 00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:10.160 out in the eighth inning with this offense? 297 00:17:10.960 --> 00:17:12.480 You can't concede anything. 298 00:17:12.680 --> 00:17:15.680 This offense is so good and they get to so 299 00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:19.039 many relievers, even in the ninth inning, down to your 300 00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:22.200 last six outs. I mean, that's how good they are. 301 00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:24.839 And I understand not wanting to use any of your 302 00:17:24.880 --> 00:17:28.640 high leverage relievers. I'm perfectly fine with that, but I 303 00:17:29.119 --> 00:17:32.079 would have left Freddie and Mookie and Will Smith in 304 00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:35.279 there for the rest of the game. And look, the 305 00:17:35.319 --> 00:17:38.480 Dodgers take three out of four from the Padres, and 306 00:17:39.079 --> 00:17:42.519 they split the final two games of the series without 307 00:17:42.599 --> 00:17:48.920 using Kirbyates, without using Tanner Scott, without using Alex Vesia. 308 00:17:49.160 --> 00:17:53.279 They came out ahead in this series, winning three out 309 00:17:53.319 --> 00:17:56.279 of four and not using any of their high leverage 310 00:17:56.319 --> 00:17:59.519 relievers the final two games of this series. So that 311 00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:02.720 was a big win for the Dodgers in more ways 312 00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:06.839 than one. And tonight that tough twenty nine game stretch 313 00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:10.599 comes to an end after the Dodgers take three out 314 00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:13.839 of four from the Padres. This tough twenty nine game 315 00:18:13.920 --> 00:18:17.759 stretch against teams above five hundred that are playoff teams 316 00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:22.480 started when the Dodgers played the Arizona Diamondbacks here at 317 00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:26.839 Dodgers Stadium beginning on May nineteenth, the Dodgers played the 318 00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:31.519 Diamondbacks three times, they played the Mets seven times, they 319 00:18:31.519 --> 00:18:35.079 played the Yankees, they played the Cardinals in Saint Louis, 320 00:18:35.200 --> 00:18:38.119 they had the Padres seven times, and they saw the 321 00:18:38.200 --> 00:18:42.559 Giants for the first time. So all that stuff, you know, 322 00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:45.960 I would say the Dodgers did really well, considering they're 323 00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:49.200 not even at full strength with their pitching staff. Seventeen 324 00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:52.519 and twelve during this twenty nine game stretch eight six 325 00:18:52.599 --> 00:18:55.559 six nine, eight, seven, two five seventy is the phone number. 326 00:18:55.720 --> 00:18:58.119 Let's go out to Eileen. You're on Dodger Talk with 327 00:18:58.240 --> 00:18:59.160 David vasse Hi. 328 00:18:59.240 --> 00:19:04.000 Eileen, Hi, thanks for accepting my call. We're huge fans 329 00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:07.799 of yours and of course the Dodgers. I just wanted 330 00:19:07.839 --> 00:19:13.119 to get your thoughts on Jack Little's performance today. I 331 00:19:13.200 --> 00:19:21.599 know he's a rookie and he's coming up, so yeah. 332 00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:22.559 Well, I thought, you know, the nerves were there and 333 00:19:22.599 --> 00:19:26.680 that was obvious. But he's pitched really well at Triple 334 00:19:26.799 --> 00:19:29.240 A and he's a guy that the Dodgers can use 335 00:19:29.279 --> 00:19:30.720 to eat innings. 336 00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:33.119 And do you think we'll see him again? 337 00:19:35.000 --> 00:19:36.880 Yeah, I think there's a very good chance we'll see 338 00:19:36.920 --> 00:19:37.359 him again. 339 00:19:38.599 --> 00:19:41.400 And I just want to give props to the Dodgers 340 00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:44.920 because I was there at the game and I thought 341 00:19:44.960 --> 00:19:48.799 that they handled everything pretty classy. And I was actually 342 00:19:48.839 --> 00:19:54.039 surprised that the Padres didn't go after pa Has again. 343 00:19:55.279 --> 00:19:57.960 I mean they went after Otani again. I mean, what 344 00:19:58.039 --> 00:19:59.640 else do you want? I would say they got the 345 00:19:59.640 --> 00:20:02.480 big right there, and I don't. I don't love it 346 00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:05.079 all right, Eileen, Thanks for the phone call.

In the ninth 352 00:20:20.200 --> 00:20:24.039 inning after a three run rally comes up short, Padres 353 00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:27.759 avoid their first four game sweep at the hands of 354 00:20:27.799 --> 00:20:31.519 the Dodgers since two thousand and nine. That happened here 355 00:20:31.559 --> 00:20:34.400 at Dodgers Stadium. So they avoid that with a five 356 00:20:34.440 --> 00:20:37.400 to three win right here on five seventy LA Sports. 357 00:20:42.200 --> 00:20:45.400 Dodger Talk is available on AM five seventy LA sports 358 00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:49.440 dot com, hand on the iHeartRadio app. Back to more 359 00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:53.119 Dodger Talk with Dodger insider David Bassei. 360 00:20:53.960 --> 00:20:57.319 Tatisa is still on the ground.

Dave Roberts out of 364 00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:03.960 the dugout. 365 00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:06.400 The managers are gonna come face to face. Standing in 366 00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:09.559 between him is the crouchie, Marvin Hudson and talk. Just 367 00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:14.559 put Mike Schilt. The dugout's clear. Mike Shilt has been 368 00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:18.440 barking all day and then he yelled at Dave Roberts. 369 00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:22.599 In the Padres and Dodger bullpens now empty, they gather 370 00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:25.359 on the warning track next to the Dodger dugout. This 371 00:21:25.480 --> 00:21:27.319 has been brewing all season long. 372 00:21:30.920 --> 00:21:35.079 Temper's boiled over as the Padres got so frustrated by 373 00:21:35.119 --> 00:21:38.240 the Dodgers beating them so many times within a week, 374 00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:41.400 two out of three in San Diego and winning the 375 00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:45.039 first three games of this series at Dodgers Stadium. I 376 00:21:45.079 --> 00:21:48.960 can understand why Mike Shilt was so frustrated. Welcome back 377 00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:51.599 to Dodger Talk. David vasse with you until the top 378 00:21:51.640 --> 00:21:55.119 of the hour. Both managers ejected tonight, and so is 379 00:21:55.240 --> 00:21:58.920 Robert Suarez. Robert Suarez should be suspended for at least 380 00:21:58.960 --> 00:22:02.680 ten games, and Mike Shilt should be suspended as well 381 00:22:02.759 --> 00:22:05.960 for a basically admitting post game that he was good 382 00:22:06.039 --> 00:22:10.119 with his pictures hitting showe Aotani twice in this series. 383 00:22:10.519 --> 00:22:13.359 Daniels Jewelers presents the home run forecast to go to 384 00:22:13.400 --> 00:22:16.720 AM five seventy LA sports dot Com.

Daniels Jewelers Own the Dream. We'll 388 00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:29.319 check in with Jose Mota in a minute, but first 389 00:22:29.400 --> 00:22:32.519 let's hear from Dodger manager Dave Roberts and his side 390 00:22:32.519 --> 00:22:36.119 of things. And he was very calm, very calm, unlike 391 00:22:36.160 --> 00:22:38.319 the emotional Mike Shilt, you know. 392 00:22:38.359 --> 00:22:40.720 The way I see it. The way I saw it 393 00:22:40.799 --> 00:22:45.319 was Jack Little was making his major league debut, and 394 00:22:46.119 --> 00:22:49.440 he's trying to get through the outing and we're trying 395 00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:52.680 to get him to finish the game. And obviously the 396 00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:57.200 armside miss to Iglesias walk some walks in a run 397 00:22:57.880 --> 00:23:02.119 and then he hits Tatis with an armside fastball. Obviously, 398 00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:05.480 I think anyone knows there was no intent, and so 399 00:23:06.240 --> 00:23:08.799 and I think even you know, Mike speaking the other 400 00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:12.400 day talking about intent versus no intent, and so I 401 00:23:12.400 --> 00:23:14.680
