Speaker 3: You hope you're enjoying your Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 2: Your Los Angeles Dodgers ninety two and sixty three on
Speaker 2: this season, first place, the top the NL West. The
Speaker 2: magic number to clinch the division still remains at five
Speaker 2: after a win over the Rockies in this series opener.
Speaker 2: The Dodgers dropped the second game of this series last night,
Speaker 2: but they look to get the series win today with well,
Speaker 2: what is supposed to be a really good pitching matchup
Speaker 2: for the Dodgers as Yoshinobu Yamamoto goes to the mound
Speaker 2: for the blue first pitch coming up at one ten.
Speaker 2: Between then and now, we got a lot to get
Speaker 2: to here on Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, You're gonna
Speaker 2: hear from David Vasse, our Dodger insidner. He'll go one
Speaker 2: on one with Jackson Ferris, the Dodgers' top minor league
Speaker 2: pitching prospect who was honored just a couple of days ago.
Speaker 2: We'll hear from Dodger manager Dave Roberts will dive deeper
Speaker 2: into this pitching matchup. We got your Dodgers magical moment
Speaker 2: coming up in about thirty minutes. Shortly, we'll hear from
Speaker 2: Kirsten Watson from Sports Net LA. In a just a
Speaker 2: few minutes, we'll check in with Tim Nevertt and Rick
Speaker 2: Monday out at the Galpin Motors Broadcast booth. Well, last night,
Speaker 2: the Dodgers let one get away as Bueller's not quite
Speaker 2: back yet, but he's getting there. Walker Buehler got the start,
Speaker 2: the right hander trying to show he's good for the postseason.
Speaker 2: Win five and a third innings, allowed four runs on
Speaker 2: five hits, but he's struck out nine along the way.
Speaker 2: He gave up a run in the first, two more
Speaker 2: in the second as the Dodgers found themselves down three
Speaker 2: to nothing. In the third, though the Dodgers' offense able
Speaker 2: to get a few backs show Hey O Tani a
Speaker 2: two out walk. Next batter Mookie Betts with a breadth
Speaker 2: the fresh air moment of the game.
Speaker 4: Hitch the Mookie swings hits a drive tat to left.
Speaker 4: This ball heading back at Mookie Bets his ain't take
Speaker 4: for the season. Mookie makes it a three to two
Speaker 4: games Marcus.
Speaker 5: When Betts heads around.
Speaker 6: The bases, he'll touch home, getting old Tanaim Harbi.
Speaker 4: Seventy one and seventy two for.
Speaker 2: Mookie Bets two run home run for Mookie.
Speaker 3: Dodgers down three to two.
Speaker 2: The breath of fresh air moment of the game brought
Speaker 2: to by a Tar Mechanical looking for reliable heating and
Speaker 2: air conditioning services here in southern California. A Tar Mechanicals,
Speaker 2: your trusted partner, Omar Brittany, the founder's great people.
Speaker 3: Their service is more than just a solution.
Speaker 2: It's the breath of fresh air from the moment you
Speaker 2: call to the completion of your project. A Tar Mechanical
Speaker 2: delivers friendly, honest service at a fair price. Dodgers down
Speaker 2: three to two, and the fourth when again a little
Speaker 2: two hour magic, this time from Hunter Fordusia an RBI single,
Speaker 2: scoring Max Munsey and the game was tied at three,
Speaker 2: but not for long. Walker Bueler on the mound went
Speaker 2: back out to pitch the fifth inning when the Rockies
Speaker 2: retook the lead.
Speaker 7: Third baseman Ryan McMahon is oh for two East swings.
Speaker 7: It's a high fly ball to left in deep pay
Speaker 7: Oscar back to the wall. It is gone an opposite
Speaker 7: field home run and the Rockies have retaken the lead
Speaker 7: on a two out round tripper by Ryan McMahon. It
Speaker 7: is four to three of Colorado.
Speaker 2: Solo home run from the Ford to modern day product says,
Speaker 2: the Rockies took a four to three lead. That is
Speaker 2: the top tier player the game sponsored by Arco Quality
Speaker 2: top tier gass for less. Dodgers trailed four to three
Speaker 2: until the ninth Daniel Hudson on a relief trying to
Speaker 2: keep it a one run game. When Daniel Hudson gave
Speaker 2: up a two run home run, Rockies take a six
Speaker 2: to three lead. The Dodgers, though would load the bases
Speaker 2: in the bottom of the ninth, would come up empty.
Speaker 2: Rockies go on and win it. Dodgers had their opportunities.
Speaker 2: They stranded the bases loaded twice. They were one for
Speaker 2: eight with runners in scoring position. Dodgers pitchers need to
Speaker 2: do a better job at finishing off batters. For of
Speaker 2: the Rocky six runs came on a two out, two
Speaker 2: strike hit, including Charlie Blackman's two run home run in
Speaker 2: the ninth inning off Daniel Hudson. With the loss, the
Speaker 2: Dodgers now ninety two and sixty three. The magic number
Speaker 2: remains at five and today the rubber game of this
Speaker 2: three game series. Yoshinobundamamoto on the mound, first pitcher, one
Speaker 2: ten and with more we head out to the Gallpin
Speaker 2: Motors broadcast booth as we welcome and say good afternoon
Speaker 2: to Tim Nevern and Rick Monday.
Speaker 7: Guys, Tim, thanks very much getting ready for this Sunday
Speaker 7: matinee at Dodgers Stadium, final home Sunday game of the
Speaker 7: regular season, as the Dodgers take on the Colorado Rockies.
Speaker 7: It's the rubber game of this three game set. Dodgers
Speaker 7: dropping the game to the Rockies last night six to three,
Speaker 7: and enter today's game three games up on the San
Speaker 7: Diego Padres with an overall record of ninety two and
Speaker 7: sixty three.
Speaker 4: Anytime the Rockies at sixty.
Speaker 7: And ninety five or thirty two games behind the Dodgers
Speaker 7: and in last place in the National League Western Division.
Speaker 7: Pitching matchup features Antonio Senzateela no decisions in an era
Speaker 7: of six. Eshinobo Yellamoto will pitch for the Dodgers. He
Speaker 7: is six and two two sixty three. This figure is
Speaker 7: to be the penultimate start for Yamamotos regular season as
Speaker 7: he prepares for the playoffs. And last night, Rick, we
Speaker 7: take a look at the ballgame. The Dodgers just really
Speaker 7: didn't get much going offensively. They had a a home
Speaker 7: run from Moki Bets in the third ending, looked like
Speaker 7: they were getting something going, but went flat the rest
Speaker 7: of the way.
Speaker 8: Yeah, and I think opportunities really kind of dictate. Dodgers
Speaker 8: just one for eight when they had runners in scoring position,
Speaker 8: Rockets had thirteen advance in that same situation. I'm really
Speaker 8: reminded to think about this this morning. I'm reminded of
Speaker 8: Dave Roberts postgame comments Thursday night in Miami after the
Speaker 8: Dodgers clenched another postseason birth and his message to his
Speaker 8: book club as they proposed that toast. He says, look,
Speaker 8: don't lose sight of the fact we have games to play.
Speaker 8: Here's the exact quote. Stay hungry and have a sense
Speaker 8: of urgency, and we're not seeing right now the last
Speaker 8: couple of games that sense of urgency, and the clock
Speaker 8: is ticking and the Dodgers need to close things out
Speaker 8: or the magic number is really nice, that's down to five.
Speaker 8: But in order to win their twelfth the nationallygue Western
Speaker 8: Division title in the last thirteen games. There has to
Speaker 8: be more sense of urgency on the field and of
Speaker 8: getting that done. But the job is still out there.
Speaker 7: Last couple of years, they've had it wrapped up the
Speaker 7: division much earlier than this, but this is looking like
Speaker 7: it's coming down to the wire again. The magic number
Speaker 7: five with seven games to play, and they're playing a
Speaker 7: team in the Rockies in which they have won sixty
Speaker 7: three of the last eighty nine meetings and have three
Speaker 7: more with them next weekend in Colorado.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think a couple of things too, talking about
Speaker 8: the sense of urgency. For what I'm seeing from an
Speaker 8: offensive standpoint, Dodgers are not being as selective as hitters as.
Speaker 5: We normally see.
Speaker 8: They really near the top of the list as far
Speaker 8: as pitch selection to swing it and according to counts
Speaker 8: and what the scoreboard shows. The other part, too, is
Speaker 8: the defense has been at times somewhat ragtag, and it
Speaker 8: has allowed a lot of opportunities for opposing teams.
Speaker 7: Shohotani didn't hit a home run last night.
Speaker 5: That was news.
Speaker 7: He's been unbelievable lately, but he did factor in when
Speaker 7: he walked in the third inning. And scored a run,
Speaker 7: and he singled and stole his fifty third base of
Speaker 7: the season in the ninth innix. Yeah, still contributing. But
Speaker 7: I was surprised.
Speaker 8: I think everyone was surprised that he did attempt to
Speaker 8: steal in the ninth inning, because had it been a
Speaker 8: better throw, he would have been out. And this is
Speaker 8: not about stolen bases at this point. This is about
Speaker 8: trying to come back, and the Dodgers missed a chance
Speaker 8: to have their thirty ninth come from behind victory and
Speaker 8: last night's game. But again, a couple of things from
Speaker 8: an offensive standpoint, defensive standpoint, and then two, what we
Speaker 8: will see from yam Momoto in this afternoons ballgame because
Speaker 8: he is averaged right at I mean, barely above five
Speaker 8: innings so far this season, and now he's coming off
Speaker 8: another start, coming off the injured list.
Speaker 7: So all the Rockies and the Dodgers, Game three of
Speaker 7: this three game set, the rubber game. Dodgers come in
Speaker 7: ninety two, sixty three and the Rockies are sixty and
Speaker 7: ninety five.
Speaker 5: First pitch right around the corner, tim all right.
Speaker 3: As we cut you down to first pitch.

Speaker 3: That's it, O e n dot Com.
Speaker 9: This is Kirston's corner with Kirston Watson.
Speaker 2: Hey, Kirston now joins us from the stadium before the
Speaker 2: finale of this three game series against the Rockies, and
Speaker 2: a little bit of a lineup change Kirston before first.
Speaker 10: Pitch, Yeah, so Max months. He was originally in there
Speaker 10: playing a third base, but if you recall yesterday, he
Speaker 10: was attempting a defensive play at third dived for it,
Speaker 10: and so that dive has left him pretty sore today.
Speaker 10: So Dave Roberts said that they're gonna take him out,
Speaker 10: that he's been scratched. So Keikey Hernandez is playing at
Speaker 10: third base today. They are they feel like this is
Speaker 10: nothing too serious, just give him the day today, and
Speaker 10: they believe that he should be back in the lineup
Speaker 10: on Tuesday to start the Padres series. So just a
Speaker 10: little bit of soreness from.
Speaker 3: Yesterday, that is certainly good news.
Speaker 2: And for this Dodgers team, five games still is the
Speaker 2: magic number he got the Padres Loomy with the three
Speaker 2: game series beginning on Tuesday, kind of feels like there's
Speaker 2: still a sense of urgency, Kirsten.
Speaker 10: I think there's an extreme sense of urgency. It feels like,
Speaker 10: you know, I know, on the pregame show for the
Speaker 10: TV side, Jarry Harrison Junior is always like, you know.
Speaker 9: Must win.
Speaker 10: It genuinely feels like these games moving forward are a
Speaker 10: must win for them to have the buye for not
Speaker 10: having to play in the wild card and even just
Speaker 10: to win the division. I mean, look, like you mentioned
Speaker 10: the Padres win last night, the Dodgers lost to the Rockies.
Speaker 10: So now the Padres are only three games back. If
Speaker 10: the Padres win out moving forward, they will take over
Speaker 10: the division because also they have the tiebreaker over the Dodgers.
Speaker 10: They're a team that has whether when we were in
Speaker 10: San Diego, when they played here, they have found a
Speaker 10: way to show up against this Dodgers team and they
Speaker 10: honestly kind of like take over. So the series coming
Speaker 10: up with them, it's gonna be a big one, but
Speaker 10: it really starts today. And so you know, even Dave
Speaker 10: Roberts kind of said before the scrum with him even started,
Speaker 10: he was like, you know, there's a feeling of payback
Speaker 10: because that lost tonight, that one hurt. You could feel
Speaker 10: it in the clubhouse afterwards. As much as yes, it's
Speaker 10: just the Rockies, Yes it's September. You know, you would
Speaker 10: think it's kind of a whatever, let's just get through,
Speaker 10: but no, these these game, this game and specific is
Speaker 10: incredibly important. It's also important for Yoshinobu to you know,
Speaker 10: continue with his build up, to plan for him is
Speaker 10: five or six innings to get up to ninety pitches
Speaker 10: because it's time for you know, these guys need to
Speaker 10: get ready for October and hopefully that means a fi
Speaker 10: week before the DS but if not, if things don't
Speaker 10: go as planned, they will be in the wild cards.
Speaker 10: So it just tells you how much more important this
Speaker 10: game is and the games moving forward are for this team.
Speaker 5: Yeah, no doubt.
Speaker 2: This is the Dodgers team the last couple of years
Speaker 2: hasn't been in this situation here in late September, Houston.
Speaker 3: We appreciate it. We'll check in with you after the game.

Speaker 9: This is the LA Dodgers Injury.
Speaker 2: Report, presented by UCLA Healthy, official medical partner of the

Speaker 2: Dave Roberts says he's got side soreness from diving for
Speaker 2: a ball last night.
Speaker 3: Should be good to go for the Padres series. We'll
Speaker 3: keep an eye on that.
Speaker 2: Austin Barnes on the iel with the tow fracture Tyler
Speaker 2: glass now done.
Speaker 3: For the season.
Speaker 2: Ryan Elbow ten to night is Clayton Kershaw working his
Speaker 2: way back, hopefully off the iel with the left big
Speaker 2: toe injury. Gavin Stone still trying to figure out that
Speaker 2: elbow inflammation is going.
Speaker 3: To die down. He can get back about this Dodgers team.
Speaker 2: Anthony Bonda, he is rehabbing that fractured left Pinky hopes
Speaker 2: to be okay for the postseason. He is working out
Speaker 2: to try to come back. All right, let's head back
Speaker 2: out to Dodger Stadium and check in with the Dodgers.
Speaker 5: Any answered, Dave?
Speaker 4: Do you think questions for Dave?
Speaker 5: Dave? Can you just describe Dave? Can you talk about
Speaker 5: the pressure in.
Speaker 9: The dugouts with Dave Roberts.
Speaker 11: Certainly this is not a postseason game, but given you
Speaker 11: have four starts in this case Yoshinobu to prepare for
Speaker 11: the postseason, it's that same mindset. And so I know
Speaker 11: he feels that way. Our guys feel that way. So
Speaker 11: it's a good kind of it's a good exercise. It's
Speaker 11: a big game.
Speaker 4: I'm considered.
Speaker 10: Do you feel like a build up for him though,
Speaker 10: has been really good? He said. The plan for him
Speaker 10: is kind of that five and six innings, hopefully getting
Speaker 10: around ninety pitches you feel good about just kind of
Speaker 10: what his build up has looked like since coming.
Speaker 9: Off the io.
Speaker 11: Absolutely, absolutely, And I think that you know, like I said,
Speaker 11: he's pitching big ball games, but for him to get
Speaker 11: into the sixth inning, potentially get through it, get the
Speaker 11: pitch count up to ninety with another start after that,
Speaker 11: I think that there's more stress in the postseason, so
Speaker 11: you've got it kind of really get that foundation to
Speaker 11: prepare for the stress of every postseason pitch.
Speaker 12: Would you like to see your guys come out today
Speaker 12: with the urgency of a postseason game, obviously without close
Speaker 12: the races and what's in front of you here?
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 5: I mean we have what.
Speaker 11: Seven games left, and so I do think that we've
Speaker 11: had that since Atlanta, since this third game in Atlanta,
Speaker 11: I think we've played with more edge, more intent. So yeah,
Speaker 11: I just want that continued.
Speaker 5: Yes, that's it.
Speaker 1: Ask the obvious question, but like, is this texture important
Speaker 1: this year that you guys close up the division to get.
Speaker 6: That by just with where kind of pitching staff is
Speaker 6: that habit set you up in Brocktobert.
Speaker 4: It's the goal, it's the goal.
Speaker 11: Certainly where we're at, it would be helpful, and like
Speaker 11: we just talked about, is it's in our own hands,
Speaker 11: So that would be a certain welcome and it's something
Speaker 11: that we still got to earn. We've still got some
Speaker 11: work to do.
Speaker 9: You know what the pitching it's gonna look.
Speaker 5: Like for this weekend.
Speaker 11: I think we're just gonna stay on schedule. Yeah, so
Speaker 11: just kind of how the guys have been, that's what
Speaker 11: we're gonna do.
Speaker 2: All right, there's Dave Roberts down the dugout, brought to
Speaker 2: you by Service Titan. Dave Roberts is a Titan in
Speaker 2: his own right. He's got a plan before his team

Speaker 2: more at Service Titan dot com. Let me continue here
Speaker 2: on Dodgers on Debt, We'll check in with David Vase
Speaker 2: get you all the latest, including update on maximunci lead
Speaker 2: you up to first pitch on this Sunday Dodgers and Rockies.
Speaker 2: I'm Tim Kates's Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.
Speaker 9: This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on.
Speaker 1: Deck on your home for the blue All season law.
Speaker 3: It's Dodgers and Rockies.
Speaker 2: Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Antonio Cincintela, the pitching mancha first pitch coming
Speaker 2: up at one ten.
Speaker 3: The umpiring crew for today's game.
Speaker 2: Brought to you by Fred Loya Insurance celebrating fifty years
Speaker 2: providing reliable and affordable car insurance for you and your family.
Speaker 9: Joining Tim Cakes on Dodgers on Deck.
Speaker 4: I accept everybody for who they are.
Speaker 9: This is Dodger insider David Bassi.
Speaker 2: All right, David, we find out a little bit ago
Speaker 2: Max Munsey scratched from the lineup. Should we be worried
Speaker 2: about this for here the final week of the season.
Speaker 4: I'm not sure about that, Tim.
Speaker 12: Honestly, I know things can get you know, the information
Speaker 12: we get sometimes is not completely transparent. But Dave Roberts
Speaker 12: said he just made a diving play and he heard
Speaker 12: his side going down on his right side, and that
Speaker 12: was the same side that kept him out for quite
Speaker 12: some time.
Speaker 4: I will say this. I spoke to Max.
Speaker 12: Munsey earlier this morning after his on field drills. He
Speaker 12: never mentioned that he was hurt or there was something
Speaker 12: to be concerned about. He has been very forthcoming with
Speaker 12: me when it comes to different bumps and bruises, including
Speaker 12: getting hit by a pitch on his right elbow in
Speaker 12: Miami by that position player. So right now, I would
Speaker 12: say it's just being cautious and the Dodgers have a
Speaker 12: day off tomorrow and they want him as ready as
Speaker 12: possible to go for that Padre series.
Speaker 2: David has driven by Ford it there's one thing we like.
Speaker 2: Its choice is fine yours with the Ford F one
Speaker 2: to fifty gas hybrid all electric tough.
Speaker 3: This mark can only be called F one fifty.
Speaker 2: Daniel Hudson last nine DV gives up a home run
Speaker 2: late that made it a three run deficit.
Speaker 3: What's the deal with Daniel Hudson?
Speaker 2: What is his role maybe going to be moving forward
Speaker 2: here the rest of the season.
Speaker 4: Well, here's the deal with Daniel Hudson.
Speaker 12: Sixty one innings pitched this year in sixty three appearances.
Speaker 12: That's the most in both categories since twenty nineteen, when he.
Speaker 4: Helped the Nationals win the World Series.
Speaker 12: So for a thirty seven year old reliever who has
Speaker 12: been counted upon since day one, that's a heavy workload
Speaker 12: and the numbers reflect that. In the second half, twenty
Speaker 12: four appearances with an era close to six with five
Speaker 12: home runs last night to Charlie Blackman, and Daniel Hudson
Speaker 12: is one of the toughest guys you'll find in Major
Speaker 12: League Baseball, as was evident when he pitched through basically
Speaker 12: a broken knee last year before he had to have
Speaker 12: surgery on it. So you know, right now, it just
Speaker 12: feels like the workload may have added up on Daniel Hudson.
Speaker 12: And when we talk about the Dodgers need to win
Speaker 12: this division to get five days off, you can include
Speaker 12: Daniel Hudson needing those five days off.
Speaker 4: But the Dodgers have.
Speaker 12: Done as much as they can to manage his workload
Speaker 12: in the second half. They gave him three different opportunities
Speaker 12: of extended days off six days, nine days, and five.
Speaker 4: Days, so they're trying to do as much as they can.
Speaker 12: But the reality is he's thirty seven years old and
Speaker 12: has pitched more innings and games than he has since
Speaker 12: twenty nineteen.
Speaker 2: It's September twenty second, David today, Tommy Lesora's birthday.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the Dodgers have done a great thing.
Speaker 12: They started a Tommy Losorda Lead Blue Award, and the
Speaker 12: previous two winners were rosz Wyman and also John Schumaker.
Speaker 4: This year, it's longtime Dodger Catcher.
Speaker 12: World Series MVP Steve Jaeger, and we'll hear from Steve
Speaker 12: on Dodger Talk a little bit later Rick Monday.
Speaker 4: We'll have some stories to share about it.
Speaker 12: But it's a great way for the Dodgers to honor
Speaker 12: the memory of the great Hall of Fame manager Tommy Lasorda,
Speaker 12: who was really him and Vin Scully to me in
Speaker 12: Los Angeles, are the two greatest ambassadors for this Dodger
Speaker 12: franchise and really helped to get to the popularity.
Speaker 3: It's that right now, no doubt about that, David, great stuff.
Speaker 2: I'll check back you with you in just a couple
Speaker 2: of minutes. Have you signed up to win Dave Roberts

Speaker 9: presented by Hawfey Hot Tails.
Speaker 2: We go back four years ago today, September twenty second,
Speaker 2: twenty twenty Dodgers taking on the Oakland A's in front
Speaker 2: of one hundreds of cardboard cutouts and attendance through the
Speaker 2: COVID shutdown to watch the Dodgers clinch their eighth straight
Speaker 2: Divisional title.
Speaker 6: McGhee about to throw his eighteenth pitch, one ball, two strikes,
Speaker 6: Murphy strikes out swinging and the Dodgers make it eight
Speaker 6: straight Western Division titles. Next goal to remove the weight
Speaker 6: of and the weight since nineteen eighty eight. The Dodgers
Speaker 6: are the National League Western Division champions.
Speaker 4: Again.
Speaker 6: It may have been a shortened season, but from beginning
Speaker 6: to end, the Dodgers were the class in the National League.
Speaker 4: They had the best record pretty much from day one.

Speaker 1: of LA Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 2: This Dodgers and Rockies on This Sunday afternoon, Yoshinobu Yamamoto
Speaker 2: and Antonio Cincintella. The pitching matchup of this series finale,
Speaker 2: first pitch coming up at one ten. Dodgers Baseball is

Speaker 2: Boss will dive deeper to this pitchy matchup.
Speaker 1: But first and now joined by David Basseying, Here's La
Speaker 1: Dodgers broadcaster and World Series champion Dodger Rick Monday.
Speaker 5: Rick.
Speaker 12: It's a beautiful they at the ballpark, and today the
Speaker 12: Dodgers are remembering their Hall of Fame manager Tommy Lasorda
Speaker 12: because he was born on this day in nineteen twenty
Speaker 12: seven in Norristown, Pennsylvania.
Speaker 4: And I know Tommy meant a lot to you.
Speaker 8: Well he did, because I first ran into Tommy. He
Speaker 8: was a scout at the time out of Santa Monica
Speaker 8: High School and he was scouting me as both a
Speaker 8: pitcher and as an outfielder. And I've told the story before,
Speaker 8: is it Tommy. You know, he was also the coach
Speaker 8: of what they called the Dodger Rookie team, where they
Speaker 8: sent out letters they being the Dodgers, to young high
Speaker 8: school guys are ready to graduate. I was seventeen, just graduating,
Speaker 8: and it was really sent out to guys that they
Speaker 8: were attempting to sign to a contract with the Dodgers.
Speaker 8: And there was a series of three different weekends of
Speaker 8: trying out, and Tommy Lasorda was the coach of that
Speaker 8: Dodger rookie team, and he eventually had my mother and
Speaker 8: I had dinner one night, offered a contract. My mom
Speaker 8: put down the pen the first time, at second time,
Speaker 8: she put it down. The third time she was ready
Speaker 8: to sign, and she finally put it down says, no,
Speaker 8: my son needs to go to college to begin with,
Speaker 8: he gaets hurt, or we can't make it as something
Speaker 8: to fall back upon. So that was my exposure to
Speaker 8: Tommy Lasorda. And then who would have thought later on
Speaker 8: in Tommy's first full year as a manager, that's the
Speaker 8: first year that I was traded from the Cubs to
Speaker 8: the Dodgers, and here's this guy that tried to sign
Speaker 8: me so many years ago. So I knew a lot
Speaker 8: about Tommy, and most of the guys on that team
Speaker 8: had played for Tommy at the Triple A level, so
Speaker 8: everybody was in pretty much synchronized to understand that Tommy
Speaker 8: knew how to push the buttons to motivate us, to
Speaker 8: challenge us, and maybe at times to irritate us.
Speaker 5: And he did it very very well.
Speaker 8: He knew the buttons to push for David Vasse, what
Speaker 8: would motivate you to do this?
Speaker 5: Or that.
Speaker 8: He understood the buttons he had to push for Dwayne
Speaker 8: McDonnell or with me, and he was marvelous of doing that,
Speaker 8: and especially with younger players. So this now carries on
Speaker 8: a tradition of those players and people within the organization
Speaker 8: that had meant a lot to the history of the
Speaker 8: Dodgers over the years.
Speaker 12: In nineteen seventy seven was the year you became teammates
Speaker 12: with today's Tomulus sorta award winner, Bleeve Blue Award, that
Speaker 12: is the one and only Steve Yeager.
Speaker 8: The Boomer, the Boomer, and we were roommates in spring
Speaker 8: training and I wrote Steve, actually, and we'll get insign.
Speaker 5: And personal here.
Speaker 8: About five years ago I wrote Steve a nice letter
Speaker 8: electronically and basically just told him is that you know,
Speaker 8: we've gone through a lot together. You know, we've laughed together,
Speaker 8: we've cried together, we've grown up together. And he was
Speaker 8: really the brother that I never had, you know, growing
Speaker 8: up as an only child, and we just hit it
Speaker 8: off for different reasons and that friendship continues and it's
Speaker 8: one of the nice things. Of course, if you think
Speaker 8: about the ball clubs that we were privileged enough to
Speaker 8: be a part of, not only were they winning teams,
Speaker 8: they were winning people. And by that I'm talking about
Speaker 8: good people. And that's the important thing, because that's not
Speaker 8: always the story. When we go to our workplace, whatever
Speaker 8: it is. You know, sometimes you get along. Oh there
Speaker 8: was a bickering here and there, but you know, we're
Speaker 8: together for eight months out of the year, a day
Speaker 8: in and day out of competing and sometimes, you know,
Speaker 8: the nerve endings get a little bit afraid, but overall,
Speaker 8: very privileged to be a part of good teams with
Speaker 8: good people.
Speaker 4: What made Steve Jeger so special as a player and
Speaker 4: a teammate.
Speaker 8: I think because he never wanted to give up. I
Speaker 8: think this is because a lot of people maybe coming
Speaker 8: up had doubts, you know, saying are you good enough?
Speaker 8: You're not good enough? Will you be able to make it?
Speaker 8: You don't hit well enough? Well, I defy anyone to
Speaker 8: say that anybody was better than him catching wise. And
Speaker 8: the first knee jerk reaction, well what about Johnny Bench? Okay,
Speaker 8: what about Johnny Bench? Look at Jeger. I saw him
Speaker 8: in a day out. Nothing against Johnny Bench, Hall of fame,
Speaker 8: a catcher and hit her two is what he did.
Speaker 8: But even little things like for Steve Jaeger in spring training.
Speaker 5: I told you the story before.
Speaker 8: There were pitchers in Dodgertown in having bullpen sessions in
Speaker 8: what they referred to as the string area, and there
Speaker 8: were about four different mounds side by side by side,
Speaker 8: and the pitchers would attempt and bet who could get
Speaker 8: a ball passed Steve Yager and make a pitch, And
Speaker 8: many of the pittures were disappointed because they could not
Speaker 8: get the ball passed. Steve took it personally if a
Speaker 8: ball got by him and he had to go to
Speaker 8: the backstop or anywhere around home plate to get the baseball.
Speaker 8: Quick story when lou Brock, the Great lou Brock would
Speaker 8: get on base and I remember one instance, in particular
Speaker 8: in Saint Louis is it Rock Before the game, he goes, Steve,
Speaker 8: I'm gonna steal some bases on you. I'm gonna go,
Speaker 8: and Jag just looked at him and goes, let me
Speaker 8: tell you something. You don't want to embarrass yourself. And
Speaker 8: then Steve would look at the Brock when he did
Speaker 8: get on base and Brockwood yell in from first base.
Speaker 8: I'm going, Yig, I'm gonna go, and Yeg, we just
Speaker 8: look at him and laugh. He goes, I've told you, Luke,
Speaker 8: don't embarrass yourself. I'll gun you down at second base.
Speaker 12: Hey, that was the competitor that is Steve Jeger, and
Speaker 12: that's part of the reason why he is today's Timulus
Speaker 12: sort of.
Speaker 8: Well, here's the other part, and here's why we were long,
Speaker 8: long lasting friends. Isn't on the exterior very tough guy.
Speaker 8: I got to see that teddy bear inside.
Speaker 4: I bet you did.
Speaker 12: He's a great guy and we all love Steve Yeger,
Speaker 12: a big part of Dodger history.
Speaker 5: Don't try and run on him. I won't hilly him embarrass.
Speaker 12: You, all right, Rick, Well, hear from Steve on Dodger
Speaker 12: Talk tonight. You've tipped me off to a few different questions.
Speaker 8: A couple of little yeah, a couple of little questions,
Speaker 8: and I look forward to listening to it on the
Speaker 8: postgame Dodger Talk.
Speaker 4: Thanks.
Speaker 12: Ray, we'll check in with you a yeah, right, thanks buddy. Yeah,

Speaker 2: Dodgers Rockies first pitch coming up at one ten. I'm
Speaker 2: Tim Kats's Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network book.
Speaker 1: This is Morongo Casino Dodgers Hunters on your home for
Speaker 1: La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 2: Dodgers and Rocky has closed out this three game series.
Speaker 2: Dodgers looking for the series win after winning the opener
Speaker 2: on Friday night, dropping the game last night. Yoshinobu Yamamoto
Speaker 2: on the mound, first pitch coming up at one ten
Speaker 2: Dodgers Baseball to buy our friends at Children's Hospital Los Angeles.

Speaker 1: And now what will likely be vast a fielding insults
Speaker 1: from a Dodger player.
Speaker 3: It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 9: This is high and tight.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 12: The Dodgers announced their minor league player and pictures of
Speaker 12: the year on Friday, and we're joined right now by
Speaker 12: the picture of the year, a man that was traded
Speaker 12: during the off season by the Cubs to the Dodgers.
Speaker 4: And what a steal it was for the Dodgers.
Speaker 12: I was told by a Mason McGuire and Mark McGuire
Speaker 12: somewhere in Irvine.
Speaker 4: Jackson Ferris joins us.
Speaker 13: Thanks for having me man, glad to be here.
Speaker 12: You got a lot of presents about yourself. You and
Speaker 12: Dalton Rushing feels like you guys are knocking on the
Speaker 12: door and ready to go.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 14: I mean, I'm just trying to have a good year
Speaker 14: and just hope to get on that I get a
Speaker 14: call eventually.
Speaker 12: So what can you take away from your season and
Speaker 12: being in this organization for the first time?
Speaker 14: I would just say that being a starting pitcher just
Speaker 14: is like going deep into games and longevity throughout a year.
Speaker 14: Like how healthy can you be getting laid into this year?
Speaker 14: So like you get into this time like everybody wants
Speaker 14: to play postseason baseball, and the Dodgers are going to
Speaker 14: give us a great opportunity to do that, and you
Speaker 14: just got to be healthy and answer the call whenever
Speaker 14: you get a shot. So that's one thing, probably the
Speaker 14: biggest thing I learned throughout this year.
Speaker 12: We've heard so much about the Dodgers development of pictures,
Speaker 12: So what have you learned the most about the way
Speaker 12: they do things?
Speaker 14: I just feel like the Dodgers aren't really scared to
Speaker 14: kind of screw up almost, so like they trust themselves
Speaker 14: and they trust what they do. And I have all
Speaker 14: my trust in all the coaches in the minor leagues,
Speaker 14: and so whatever they tell me, I'm going to take
Speaker 14: out with an open hand and then just hopefully it
Speaker 14: works out.
Speaker 12: So in this stage of your career, do you have
Speaker 12: to have a certain leap of faith to make changes?
Speaker 14: I would say a little little bit yeah, because like
Speaker 14: it's your career, but you also have to trust these
Speaker 14: people who know what they're doing and know what they're saying.
Speaker 14: And it's like you almost are hesitant, but you just
Speaker 14: have to open up to all these people and get
Speaker 14: to know which coaches are really there for you and
Speaker 14: all that. And that's kind of the one thing that
Speaker 14: you just got to learn throughout a year, like which
Speaker 14: coaches are really going to be there for you through
Speaker 14: rough times and good times, and then just kind of
Speaker 14: go to those guys whenever you need them.
Speaker 4: Jackson Ferris is our guest. You know that name.
Speaker 12: He was treated to the Dodgers during the off season,
Speaker 12: but you are going to get to know him a
Speaker 12: lot more in the coming years. You actually threw a
Speaker 12: combined no hitter or almost a no hitter at Great Lakes,
Speaker 12: eight no hit innings before you were taken out. We
Speaker 12: hear about this so called zone. Were you in that
Speaker 12: zone that night?
Speaker 13: Yeah? For sure.
Speaker 14: That was just one of those nights where everything was clicking.
Speaker 14: It didn't matter like if I was getting a hard
Speaker 14: hit ball, because you go deep into a game like
Speaker 14: that and you don't give up a hit, you're gonna
Speaker 14: give up hard contact. So defense was always just placed
Speaker 14: in the right position. Defense helped me out behind me.
Speaker 14: Coaches told me in between innings how we need to
Speaker 14: attack the guys coming up, And just felt like everything
Speaker 14: was clicking that night.
Speaker 12: What clicks for you the most? Is it the slider?
Speaker 12: Is it the fastball? Is it the curveball? Can you
Speaker 12: tell us a little bit more in LA about Jackson Ferris?
Speaker 14: I feel like it's always going to be a fastball,
Speaker 14: like especially this year, I really ticked up in Vlo
Speaker 14: compared to the last couple of years. So it's always
Speaker 14: going to be my fastball. And then outside of that,
Speaker 14: it was kind of my slider was really my go
Speaker 14: to whenever I got into a jam, Like what pitch.
Speaker 13: Did I use to get a strikeout? It was fastball
Speaker 13: slider always.
Speaker 4: Do you got that, Uncle Charlie though?
Speaker 13: Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 14: Once I got moved up to double A. They were
Speaker 14: really really adamant on me throwing my curveball as often
Speaker 14: as ponsible because that is what my second best option
Speaker 14: was out of high school.
Speaker 13: So now I throw that a lot. Again.
Speaker 12: I was looking at the size of your hands, because
Speaker 12: the legend ghosts that Sandy Kofax had extremely large hands
Speaker 12: and fingers to be able to wrap his hand around
Speaker 12: the baseball, which gave him that great curveball.
Speaker 4: It seems like.
Speaker 12: You you were blessed with decent hands to throw that curveball.
Speaker 13: Oh yeah, that's my opinion. Coach back home.
Speaker 14: We started throwing like a double tate ball and a
Speaker 14: softball for a month before I could even throw a
Speaker 14: curveball with a baseball, And so that my pinion, coach
Speaker 14: back home is really the one who kind of pushed
Speaker 14: me towards an old twelve six curveball that I throw.
Speaker 12: Now, well, you know there's a lefty right now on
Speaker 12: the Dodgers that is known for his fastball, his slider,
Speaker 12: and his curveball. How much have you heard the comparisons
Speaker 12: to Kershaw?
Speaker 14: So growing up, that was really the guy who I
Speaker 14: looked up to the most in baseball. It was always him,
Speaker 14: just not necessarily motion or mechanics wise, but just stuff wise,
Speaker 14: like big fastball coming out. Kind of always got told
Speaker 14: he had control problems, which out of high school, that's
Speaker 14: what I was told I had, so just trying to
Speaker 14: fine tune those and then always having the twelve six
Speaker 14: curveball to throw and then developing a slider later on,
Speaker 14: which I've got.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 12: Keep grinding down there and awesome to meet you. I've
Speaker 12: heard great things about Jackson Ferris.
Speaker 13: Thank you. Great meeting you. Glad to be here.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no doubt. Get on that mount Jackson.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I wisht that's the goal.
Speaker 4: Eventually, we'll send it back to you.

Speaker 12: Dalton rushing, we'll send it back to you, all right.

Speaker 7: in some work before the regular season.
Speaker 8: Yeah, And I think with Yamamoto, I don't think this
Speaker 8: is a question. And Dave Ro I'm just going to
Speaker 8: be asked to this before the ball game. How many
Speaker 8: pitches are you going to go? I'm not concerned with
Speaker 8: the number of pitches. I'm concerned with the competition that
Speaker 8: he has. I mean, this is a tune up. This
Speaker 8: is just, hey, go out and pitch for X number
Speaker 8: of pitches. This is to go out and compete. And
Speaker 8: I think that's at the top of the versus how
Speaker 8: long he's going to be in the game.
Speaker 7: For Yamamoto just his third start after that three month
Speaker 7: stint on the injured list, but he's looked pretty good
Speaker 7: since coming back. He's allowed just one earn run over
