8
00:00:26.839 --> 00:00:31.519
<v Speaker 2>Over San Diego, three over the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Dodgers,

9
00:00:31.719 --> 00:00:34.640
<v Speaker 2>after splitting four in Milwaukee to start this road trip,

10
00:00:34.840 --> 00:00:37.320
<v Speaker 2>have now split the first two games in Saint Louis

11
00:00:37.320 --> 00:00:40.200

00:00:42.759 --> 00:00:45.799
<v Speaker 2>Clayton Kershaw on the Mount. First pitch from Bush Stadium

14
00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:48.520
<v Speaker 2>is coming up at eleven fifteen. Coming up over the

15
00:00:48.560 --> 00:00:51.600
<v Speaker 2>next hour here on Maronggo Casino Dodgers on Deck, you're

16
00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:54.600
<v Speaker 2>gonna hear from the Dodger manager Dave Roberts. We'll dive

17
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:58.159
<v Speaker 2>deeper into today's pitching matchup with Clayton Kershaw on the Mount.

18
00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:00.439
<v Speaker 3>David Vase will join us throughout the show with the

19
00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:01.119
<v Speaker 3>very latest.

20
00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:03.719
<v Speaker 2>He'll go one on one with Gavin Stone the first

21
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:06.519
<v Speaker 2>Dodger pitcher to ten wins this season. He'll be on

22
00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:09.239
<v Speaker 2>the Mount tomorrow night for the opener of the homestand

23
00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:10.680
<v Speaker 2>in just a few minutes we'll head out to the

24
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:13.799
<v Speaker 2>Gallpit Motors Broadcast booth and check in with Rick Monday

25
00:01:14.079 --> 00:01:16.599
<v Speaker 2>and Tim Neverwell. Last night in Saint Louis, it was

26
00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:20.200
<v Speaker 2>definitely not Miller time. As the Cardinals down the Dodgers,

27
00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:23.359
<v Speaker 2>Bobby Miller got the start, his first since getting recalled

28
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:25.920
<v Speaker 2>from TRIPLEA. He'd go four and two thirty eight and

29
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:28.280
<v Speaker 2>to give up four runs on eight hits while striking

30
00:01:28.319 --> 00:01:31.280
<v Speaker 2>out just one batter. The Dodgers did give him the

31
00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:34.640
<v Speaker 2>early lead. Top of the first Freddy Freeman, oh.

32
00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:39.040
<v Speaker 4>Two to Freeman and Polante set in the stretch. Now

33
00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:41.400
<v Speaker 4>he deals home and Freddy hits the ground ball up

34
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:44.519
<v Speaker 4>the middle of base hit one nothing Dodgers as o'tany

35
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:45.959
<v Speaker 4>comes underscore.

36
00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:50.200
<v Speaker 2>RBI number seventy two for Freddy Dodgers. I've won to nothing. However,

37
00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:53.120
<v Speaker 2>that lead didn't last long. The Cardinals got back that run.

38
00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:55.719
<v Speaker 2>In the bottom of the first. Wilson catres the RBI

39
00:01:55.920 --> 00:01:57.920
<v Speaker 2>single and the game was tied and won. And the

40
00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:00.719
<v Speaker 2>third Alec Burlson a two run home run to write

41
00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:03.480
<v Speaker 2>off Bobby Miller Cardinals with a three to one lead

42
00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:06.000
<v Speaker 2>in the top of the fifth. The Dodgers would ship

43
00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:09.719
<v Speaker 2>away at that deficit. Show Hey Otania blasts on.

44
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:14.800
<v Speaker 4>Pitch from Polonte to Otani. These swings hits a drive

45
00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:16.960
<v Speaker 4>to write and deep. This ball's back and it is

46
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:21.120
<v Speaker 4>gone into the bullpen. A line drive home run for

47
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:25.319
<v Speaker 4>show Hey o' tony, It's three to two. Home run

48
00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:28.439
<v Speaker 4>number thirty eight for Otani.

49
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:31.919
<v Speaker 2>Show Hey goes Deep, number thirty eight that leads the

50
00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:35.400
<v Speaker 2>National League Dodgers down three to two. The Cardinals, however,

51
00:02:35.439 --> 00:02:37.520
<v Speaker 2>got that run back in the bottom of the inning.

52
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:40.639
<v Speaker 2>Mason went a solo home run again off Bobby Miller

53
00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:43.120
<v Speaker 2>that extended the Cardinals lead as they were up for

54
00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:45.919
<v Speaker 2>to two. Bobby Miller pitched into the fifth inning, gave

55
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:48.240
<v Speaker 2>up the four runs, a couple of home runs eight hits.

56
00:02:48.479 --> 00:02:50.800
<v Speaker 2>Ryan Brazier came in win an inning into third. He

57
00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:54.039
<v Speaker 2>pitched a couple of shutout innings after that. Brent Honeywell

58
00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:57.560
<v Speaker 2>got the seventh and eighth. He wouldn't close it out clean, though,

59
00:02:57.599 --> 00:03:00.240
<v Speaker 2>giving up a solo home run to Nolan Aaron nightto

60
00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:03.240
<v Speaker 2>Cardinals go on and beat the Dodgers last night, five

61
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:07.199
<v Speaker 2>to two. Andrew Polonte wins seven innings along just two

62
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:09.960
<v Speaker 2>runs on four hits. He gets the win, Bobby Miller

63
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:13.039
<v Speaker 2>gets the loss. He falls to one in three. Dodgers

64
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:17.479
<v Speaker 2>also lose Freddie Freeman. Jammed Finger left the game last night.

65
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:20.759
<v Speaker 2>X rays were negative, but he's not feeling good today.

66
00:03:20.840 --> 00:03:23.280
<v Speaker 2>It's even worse and he's not in the lineup today

67
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:26.479
<v Speaker 2>for the Dodgers. Instead, Keiky Hernandez gets the start at

68
00:03:26.479 --> 00:03:28.599
<v Speaker 2>first base. More on that coming up throughout the show.

69
00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:31.960
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers now seventy two and fifty two, they're lead down

70
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:34.199
<v Speaker 2>to two in the division and they give the ball

71
00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:37.479
<v Speaker 2>to Clayton Kershaw today First Bitch and Bush Stadium. This

72
00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:39.199
<v Speaker 2>is coming up at eleven to fifteen and with more.

73
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:41.719
<v Speaker 2>Let's head out to the gapin Motors Broadcast booth as

74
00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:45.520
<v Speaker 2>we say good morning to Rick Monday and Tim Never guys.

75
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:46.240
<v Speaker 5>Tim, thanks very much.

76
00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:50.000
<v Speaker 4>Gorgeous Sunday afternoon here, temperatures in the upper seventies, bright

77
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:53.400
<v Speaker 4>blue skies, white puffy clouds off for the distance, and

78
00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:56.080
<v Speaker 4>the Dodgers and Cardinals getting set to play the rubber

79
00:03:56.120 --> 00:03:58.919
<v Speaker 4>game of this three game set at Bush Stadium. Dodgers

80
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.439
<v Speaker 4>have won four of six against Saint Louis this season.

81
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:05.960
<v Speaker 4>Dodgers start the day seventy two and fifty two, twenty

82
00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:09.280
<v Speaker 4>games above five hundred, two games up on the Padres

83
00:04:09.319 --> 00:04:11.960
<v Speaker 4>in the National League West, three games up on Arizona.

84
00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:15.800
<v Speaker 4>In the meantime, the Cardinals sixty one and sixty two,

85
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:18.879
<v Speaker 4>a game under five hundred and ten back of the

86
00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:23.879
<v Speaker 4>Central Division leading Milwaukee Breweries. Clayton Kershaw one in two

87
00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:26.240
<v Speaker 4>and a three to five o Era makes his fifth

88
00:04:26.279 --> 00:04:28.920
<v Speaker 4>start of the season today. He'll go against veteran right

89
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:32.360
<v Speaker 4>handers Sonny Gray, who makes his third start. Ray in

90
00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:35.279
<v Speaker 4>the first year of a three year contract with the

91
00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:39.519
<v Speaker 4>Cardinals and last night Paul a little disappointing for the Dodgers.

92
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:43.360
<v Speaker 4>They couldn't manage more than two runs. Andre Polante pitched

93
00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:46.319
<v Speaker 4>one of the best games he's had as a Major leaguer,

94
00:04:46.879 --> 00:04:49.639
<v Speaker 4>and Ryan Helsley came out to close his major league

95
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:51.920
<v Speaker 4>leading thirty eighth game and it was all said and done,

96
00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:55.160
<v Speaker 4>The Dodgers only managed four hits in the ball game.

97
00:04:55.439 --> 00:04:57.839
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, it was kind of weird because we talked before

98
00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:00.199
<v Speaker 6>the ball game the Dodgers when they score first, as

99
00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:02.319
<v Speaker 6>they did last night. They put a run on the

100
00:05:02.360 --> 00:05:05.560
<v Speaker 6>board with the Freddie Freeman RBI single in that very

101
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:08.000
<v Speaker 6>first inning. The Dodgers entered the game fifty three and

102
00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:10.800
<v Speaker 6>thirteen for the season when they scored first. Not to

103
00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:14.360
<v Speaker 6>be in last night's contest. Freddy Freeman also is not

104
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:17.639
<v Speaker 6>in the lineup. Took a hard smash in the sixth

105
00:05:17.720 --> 00:05:20.199
<v Speaker 6>inning in last night's ballgame. We start to look at

106
00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:23.240
<v Speaker 6>this road trip has been somewhat disappointing. The Dodgers field

107
00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:24.759
<v Speaker 6>that they gave away to each of the last two

108
00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:27.319
<v Speaker 6>games in Milwaukee. Last night they were just flat out

109
00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:31.160
<v Speaker 6>beaten a very good pitching matchup, as you were talking about.

110
00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:33.879
<v Speaker 6>But on this road trip, now, this is a six

111
00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:36.079
<v Speaker 6>games into this road trip. This will complete it with

112
00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:39.319
<v Speaker 6>the seventh game. But the bullpen has worked twenty two

113
00:05:39.399 --> 00:05:42.120
<v Speaker 6>and the third innings already on this road trip. The

114
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:45.319
<v Speaker 6>bullpen is tired and they needed a reinforcement.

115
00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:47.680
<v Speaker 4>And Casparius is here to be that reinforcement. He will

116
00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:51.120
<v Speaker 4>be a long reliever. He's been a starter, a converted

117
00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:55.079
<v Speaker 4>position player out of the University of Connecticut. But Casparius,

118
00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:57.800
<v Speaker 4>who has pitched both a double A and TRIPLEA this season,

119
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:01.399
<v Speaker 4>somewhat of a strikeout artist, and more than likely we'll

120
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:04.079
<v Speaker 4>see him in the ball game today, but he will

121
00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:06.279
<v Speaker 4>make his major league debut when he does come in.

122
00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:09.600
<v Speaker 4>As far as first base goes today, key Key Hernandez

123
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:12.160
<v Speaker 4>moves across the diamond, Rojas will have.

124
00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:14.240
<v Speaker 6>To play third Okay, he's going to play third base,

125
00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:17.519
<v Speaker 6>and Nick Ahmed will be at shortstop position. Gavin Lux,

126
00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:19.680
<v Speaker 6>who's really been hitting well, in fact, he's moved the

127
00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:22.040
<v Speaker 6>average almost to two point fifty right now, as well

128
00:06:22.040 --> 00:06:24.959
<v Speaker 6>below that at the All Star break, but Lux will

129
00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:28.199
<v Speaker 6>bat in the number three position, the Oscar Hernanez will

130
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:30.279
<v Speaker 6>bat in the number four spots, and the Dodgers have

131
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:32.519
<v Speaker 6>to figure out how to get to Sunny Gray. They

132
00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:34.839
<v Speaker 6>have seen him in the past, They've seen him a lot.

133
00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:37.160
<v Speaker 6>A couple of guys have had some very good success

134
00:06:37.199 --> 00:06:40.519
<v Speaker 6>against him. And for Sunny Gray, we'll see how he

135
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:42.920
<v Speaker 6>is going to pitch this Dodger ball club. And for

136
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:46.079
<v Speaker 6>the Cardinals, if they snapped that five game losing streak

137
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:48.240
<v Speaker 6>last night and they were like nothing better than to

138
00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:50.240
<v Speaker 6>win the series against the Dodgers, and.

139
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:53.040
<v Speaker 4>For sure, hey Otani, he's getting closer to a pretty

140
00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:55.439
<v Speaker 4>big milestone. He needs two more home runs and three

141
00:06:55.439 --> 00:06:59.639
<v Speaker 4>more stolen bases to become the dodgers first ever forty

142
00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:03.639
<v Speaker 4>four man is fifty to fifty within reach. You need

143
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:06.120
<v Speaker 4>twelve home runs and thirteen stolen bases for that.

144
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:07.199
<v Speaker 5>So stay tuned.

145
00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:10.079
<v Speaker 4>You never know with shoe Heey Otani, who's due to

146
00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:13.240
<v Speaker 4>really heat up at some point in time, maybe starting

147
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:16.199
<v Speaker 4>today Clayton Kershaw at one and two, we'll take on

148
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:21.560
<v Speaker 4>a Sonny Gray of the Cardinals. As Gray comes in

149
00:07:22.519 --> 00:07:26.279
<v Speaker 4>with a record of eleven and seven and an era

150
00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:29.000
<v Speaker 4>just under four, we're counting it out of the first

151
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:30.160
<v Speaker 4>pitch in Saint Louis.

177
00:08:55.240 --> 00:08:57.679

<v Speaker 3>That's I T O e N dot com.

189
00:09:32.080 --> 00:09:34.799
<v Speaker 2>Well, last night, the Dodgers gave the ball to Bobby Miller,

190
00:09:34.840 --> 00:09:37.639
<v Speaker 2>hoping he would have something different than he had the

191
00:09:37.720 --> 00:09:39.879
<v Speaker 2>first time around before getting sit down to Triple A

192
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:42.320
<v Speaker 2>Oklahoma City. He pitched into the fifth inning, four and

193
00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:45.440
<v Speaker 2>two thirds innings, four runs, eight hits, a couple of

194
00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:47.679
<v Speaker 2>home runs. He gets tagged with the loss as the

195
00:09:47.679 --> 00:09:49.720
<v Speaker 2>Cardinals went at five to two, and afterwards spoke to

196
00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:50.279
<v Speaker 2>David Masse.

197
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:53.159
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, you know, I've obviously been working on a lot,

198
00:09:53.399 --> 00:09:57.200
<v Speaker 8>but I mean the biggest thing was marking on delivery

199
00:09:57.360 --> 00:09:59.159
<v Speaker 8>and stuff like that, like mechanics.

200
00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:01.480
<v Speaker 9>Trying to get theveloscity back.

201
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:03.440
<v Speaker 8>Might have been chasing that a little bit too much

202
00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:06.960
<v Speaker 8>instead of just if you're pitching. You know, I can

203
00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:10.559
<v Speaker 8>build off off of tonight as well. You know, really

204
00:10:10.600 --> 00:10:12.840
<v Speaker 8>just tonight it was just falling behind a couple of

205
00:10:12.879 --> 00:10:15.600
<v Speaker 8>guys like two oho, two to one.

206
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:17.039
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, one of the homers.

207
00:10:17.039 --> 00:10:18.960
<v Speaker 8>I thought I got very inside, but you know it's

208
00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:20.679
<v Speaker 8>two h count there's no excuse for that.

209
00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:23.440
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, just falling behind.

210
00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:25.000
<v Speaker 8>You know, I feel like I probably got ahead of

211
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:27.480
<v Speaker 8>a lot more betters today. Strike one, get oh one

212
00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:31.840
<v Speaker 8>would have been a completely different ball game. But yeah,

213
00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:34.200
<v Speaker 8>delivery fell lot better, you know, walks her down, but

214
00:10:34.320 --> 00:10:36.320
<v Speaker 8>still falling behind the counts.

215
00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:38.919
<v Speaker 9>So have a losts like ninety nine ish and the

216
00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:40.440
<v Speaker 9>first game kind of dipped up from there?

217
00:10:40.519 --> 00:10:42.240
<v Speaker 5>Is that just sort of thing out of your delivery

218
00:10:42.559 --> 00:10:42.799
<v Speaker 5>sort of?

219
00:10:45.159 --> 00:10:47.000
<v Speaker 8>I think, you know, I've just had a lot of

220
00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:51.600
<v Speaker 8>time in between these last few audings, silly building endurance

221
00:10:51.639 --> 00:10:54.360
<v Speaker 8>back up right now. My arm felt great the whole

222
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:57.720
<v Speaker 8>time throughout, so you know, could have just been like

223
00:10:57.799 --> 00:11:00.440
<v Speaker 8>first game back jitters a little bit, had a little

224
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:03.559
<v Speaker 8>bit today, but you know I felt good. Just fell

225
00:11:03.559 --> 00:11:06.639
<v Speaker 8>behind some hitters and thanks time out there. You know,

226
00:11:06.799 --> 00:11:08.679
<v Speaker 8>just folcus on getting to strike one and it'll be a

227
00:11:08.759 --> 00:11:09.559
<v Speaker 8>different ball games.

228
00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:11.360
<v Speaker 9>Have you guys been able to like decay for like,

229
00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:14.039
<v Speaker 9>why me don't speak a man who hasn't lacked the there.

230
00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:17.080
<v Speaker 8>That for you this year really just pulling off towards

231
00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:18.639
<v Speaker 8>the first day side a little bit, you know on

232
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:22.720
<v Speaker 8>the slider. Those pulled sliders really just came from like

233
00:11:22.840 --> 00:11:25.039
<v Speaker 8>pulling off, you know, trying to focus too much down

234
00:11:25.080 --> 00:11:27.120
<v Speaker 8>in the way instead of think keeping the line middle

235
00:11:27.159 --> 00:11:30.559
<v Speaker 8>and making it look more like a strike the whole time. Now,

236
00:11:30.639 --> 00:11:33.000
<v Speaker 8>my last outing the slider was uh a lot better.

237
00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:37.200
<v Speaker 8>I wasn't really yanking at that much. Yeah, definitely could

238
00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:39.000
<v Speaker 8>have thrown the change up a little more tonight as well.

239
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:40.480
<v Speaker 8>It wasn't there in the beginning of the game, but

240
00:11:40.519 --> 00:11:42.919
<v Speaker 8>towards the end it felt really good. Kind of some

241
00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:45.320
<v Speaker 8>swing and misses on it, but they also had some

242
00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:47.399
<v Speaker 8>really good takes on some change ups as well, So

243
00:11:47.440 --> 00:11:49.399
<v Speaker 8>you got a tip the cap on that. When we

244
00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:53.600
<v Speaker 8>had the factors team able to commere the secondary stuff

245
00:11:53.720 --> 00:12:00.840
<v Speaker 8>been this year leading to some of these trouble you know,

246
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:03.240
<v Speaker 8>towards the end of the game, I thought it was

247
00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:06.000
<v Speaker 8>a little bit better. Really only really had the curve

248
00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:07.360
<v Speaker 8>ball at the end of the game and the change up.

249
00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:09.159
<v Speaker 8>But if I had that change up in the.

250
00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:10.000
<v Speaker 9>Beginning of the game.

251
00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:12.080
<v Speaker 8>I think it would have been a different story as well,

252
00:12:12.720 --> 00:12:15.600
<v Speaker 8>showing different speeds and stuff instead of just selling a

253
00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:16.879
<v Speaker 8>lot of high glossy fastballs.

254
00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:19.679
<v Speaker 3>That's pretty much it, all right, there's Bobby Miller last night.

<v Speaker 2>homestand after having right hip discomfort.

289
00:13:51.879 --> 00:13:52.799
<v Speaker 3>All right, let's get the.

290
00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:55.759
<v Speaker 2>Final word in here from the manager, Dave Roberts.

291
00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:57.840
<v Speaker 5>Dave, do you think questions for Dave.

292
00:13:57.919 --> 00:14:01.960
<v Speaker 6>Dave, can you just describe can you talk about the pressure.

293
00:14:02.360 --> 00:14:05.120
<v Speaker 7>In the dugouts with Dave Roberts?

294
00:14:05.120 --> 00:14:06.120
<v Speaker 9>What's Freddy stuff?

295
00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:14.799
<v Speaker 10>Freddie's status is day to day. We had an X

296
00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:19.320
<v Speaker 10>ray take in last night and nothing was there. It

297
00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:21.759
<v Speaker 10>was negative, but we are going to get a CT

298
00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:26.559
<v Speaker 10>skin just to kind of get some more information. It

299
00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:30.960
<v Speaker 10>feels worse today than it did yesterday, which is certainly telling.

300
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:35.159
<v Speaker 10>So I think obviously today it doesn't look good for

301
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:37.919
<v Speaker 10>him to play, and tomorrow it's it's more day to

302
00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:42.480
<v Speaker 10>day and we'll see. It'll be back in La does worse,

303
00:14:42.919 --> 00:14:46.080
<v Speaker 10>it does, it does the swelling, it just sort of

304
00:14:46.120 --> 00:14:48.639
<v Speaker 10>blew up, and then there's some throbbing, which which also

305
00:14:49.159 --> 00:14:52.159
<v Speaker 10>is part of that whole process. I guess try about

306
00:14:52.320 --> 00:14:56.360
<v Speaker 10>ny he did last night, but today, you know, even

307
00:14:56.440 --> 00:15:00.759
<v Speaker 10>just the regular things of getting to get getting the

308
00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:08.000
<v Speaker 10>day started, we're we're a little bit difficult for him.

309
00:15:08.200 --> 00:15:09.679
<v Speaker 9>What's the concern level.

310
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:14.240
<v Speaker 10>With that concern level at this point in time, not

311
00:15:14.399 --> 00:15:19.120
<v Speaker 10>too concerning. I think at some point it is going

312
00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:22.600
<v Speaker 10>to be a per tolerant situation. But right now you

313
00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:25.759
<v Speaker 10>can can't really grip a bat, so it's pretty mood

314
00:15:25.840 --> 00:15:27.919
<v Speaker 10>right now. But I don't think overall it's that big

315
00:15:27.960 --> 00:15:29.159
<v Speaker 10>of a concern at this point.

316
00:15:29.440 --> 00:15:32.360
<v Speaker 11>And would that change the plans when to activate Mondsey

317
00:15:32.879 --> 00:15:34.759
<v Speaker 11>to tomorrow instead of Tuesday.

318
00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:40.759
<v Speaker 10>It's a it's a thought. So we are having Max

319
00:15:40.799 --> 00:15:43.879
<v Speaker 10>take some ground balls today over there and okay, see

320
00:15:44.840 --> 00:15:50.360
<v Speaker 10>we will get them to Los Angeles tonight, so with

321
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:52.600
<v Speaker 10>the possibility of activation on Monday.

322
00:15:52.679 --> 00:15:55.000
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, but you say ground ball on the first phase.

323
00:15:55.519 --> 00:15:57.879
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, if if we need him to play first, we

324
00:15:57.879 --> 00:16:02.720
<v Speaker 10>can do that too. Mme just to just to cover us.

325
00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:06.000
<v Speaker 10>If Freddy's thing is a little bit longer than needed,

326
00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:06.639
<v Speaker 10>you know, then.

327
00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:09.639
<v Speaker 9>It's record and Tommy ms also for tomorrow.

328
00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:14.480
<v Speaker 10>Tommy will be tomorrow for sure, and so and having him,

329
00:16:14.679 --> 00:16:16.960
<v Speaker 10>you know, play anywhere on the diamond is certainly hopeful.

330
00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:23.039
<v Speaker 12>What to say went into the decision with Honeywell and Testa.

331
00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:24.279
<v Speaker 9>And what do you know about those days?

332
00:16:24.600 --> 00:16:28.519
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, I don't know much about Casparius Honeywell. That was

333
00:16:28.519 --> 00:16:31.519
<v Speaker 10>a tough one. He came here and he pitched some

334
00:16:31.600 --> 00:16:35.200
<v Speaker 10>huge innings for us. It's just one of those things

335
00:16:35.200 --> 00:16:37.759
<v Speaker 10>where you don't have any he doesn't have options, so

336
00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:40.240
<v Speaker 10>you have to make a move. There's whether it's the

337
00:16:40.279 --> 00:16:44.320
<v Speaker 10>twenty six man, the forty man, and then today where

338
00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:48.799
<v Speaker 10>we're at. We just needed the length and leverage were covered.

339
00:16:50.080 --> 00:16:52.519
<v Speaker 10>But in a game, in a big plus or a

340
00:16:52.559 --> 00:16:55.759
<v Speaker 10>minus game to be able to come out of it

341
00:16:55.840 --> 00:16:59.919
<v Speaker 10>feeling like you are equipped for Seattle. It was import

342
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:02.840
<v Speaker 10>or that everyone isn't use if they don't need to be.

343
00:17:03.320 --> 00:17:07.319
<v Speaker 5>Is Caspirius just coverage for today? Where is their possibility

344
00:17:07.319 --> 00:17:08.519
<v Speaker 5>of him starting.

345
00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:09.519
<v Speaker 9>This upcoming week?

346
00:17:10.799 --> 00:17:16.119
<v Speaker 10>It's covered for today and beyond. You know we're gonna

347
00:17:16.160 --> 00:17:20.119
<v Speaker 10>go with our regular starters, so't it's not about a

348
00:17:20.200 --> 00:17:21.440
<v Speaker 10>start now?

349
00:17:21.920 --> 00:17:22.240
<v Speaker 5>All right?

350
00:17:22.279 --> 00:17:25.400

365
00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:10.920
<v Speaker 2>Season Law Law Dodgers and Cardinals on this Sunday morning,

366
00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:13.319
<v Speaker 2>final game of this three game series, Final game of

367
00:18:13.359 --> 00:18:17.079
<v Speaker 2>this seven game road trip. Clayton Kershaw on the mound.

368
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:19.039
<v Speaker 2>The umpiring crew for today's game brought to you my

369

<v Speaker 2>Fred Loyer Insurance, celebrating fifty years of providing reliable and

372
00:18:30.960 --> 00:18:33.400
<v Speaker 7>Joining Tim kats on Dodgers on deck.

373
00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:35.240
<v Speaker 5>I accept everybody for who they are.

374
00:18:35.359 --> 00:18:38.880
<v Speaker 7>This is Dodger insider David Basse.

375
00:18:38.880 --> 00:18:39.559
<v Speaker 9>All right, DV.

376
00:18:39.720 --> 00:18:42.079
<v Speaker 2>Final game of this road trip, Layton Kershaw on the

377
00:18:42.119 --> 00:18:44.680
<v Speaker 2>mount and for Kersh, I imagine the Dodgers would love

378
00:18:44.759 --> 00:18:46.920
<v Speaker 2>to see him build on what he did last time

379
00:18:46.960 --> 00:18:47.680
<v Speaker 2>out right.

380
00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:48.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, no doubt.

381
00:18:49.160 --> 00:18:53.400
<v Speaker 11>It feels like ever since his poor start in San Diego,

382
00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:55.039
<v Speaker 11>he has gotten back on track.

383
00:18:55.599 --> 00:18:58.640
<v Speaker 5>Today I saw him. He's ready to go as usual.

384
00:18:58.759 --> 00:19:03.519
<v Speaker 11>Kershaw Day stocking the clubhouse yesterday and the previous days

385
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:04.519
<v Speaker 11>leading up to today.

386
00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:07.440
<v Speaker 5>Tim he's been in great spirits, so he's.

387
00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:10.640
<v Speaker 11>Going to fight through whatever little aches and pains. But

388
00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:13.759
<v Speaker 11>the one thing that he has continued to say, no

389
00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:16.359
<v Speaker 11>matter if the start hasn't been up to his standards

390
00:19:16.480 --> 00:19:17.519
<v Speaker 11>or not, is.

391
00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:20.200
<v Speaker 5>That his shoulder feels great. That's not an issue.

392
00:19:20.240 --> 00:19:22.799
<v Speaker 11>It's not an issue as far as pitch count goes either,

393
00:19:23.240 --> 00:19:26.519
<v Speaker 11>So that's up to Dave Roberts and his discretion on

394
00:19:26.599 --> 00:19:29.559
<v Speaker 11>the flow of the game. But today is very hot

395
00:19:29.599 --> 00:19:32.839
<v Speaker 11>and steamy here at Bush Stadium. It's going to be

396
00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:36.599
<v Speaker 11>very hot on the field, so that's something else to

397
00:19:36.720 --> 00:19:37.319
<v Speaker 11>keep in mind.

398
00:19:37.559 --> 00:19:38.160
<v Speaker 5>It's funny.

399
00:19:38.559 --> 00:19:42.759
<v Speaker 11>After Kershaw's win first of the season in Milwaukee, we

400
00:19:42.759 --> 00:19:45.559
<v Speaker 11>were talking and he said, yeah, I got the day

401
00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:47.160
<v Speaker 11>game in Saint Louis on Sunday.

402
00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:47.839
<v Speaker 5>I'll be ready.

403
00:19:48.559 --> 00:19:51.039
<v Speaker 2>He'll be ready, and no doubt the Dodgers looking for

404
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:52.720
<v Speaker 2>him to do something like he did last time out.

405
00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:54.680
<v Speaker 2>David was driven by Ford. If there's one thing we

406
00:19:54.839 --> 00:19:56.920
<v Speaker 2>like his choice, this fine yours with the Ford F

407
00:19:56.960 --> 00:19:59.599
<v Speaker 2>one to fifty gas hybrid all electric, tough. This mark

408
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:02.799
<v Speaker 2>I only be called F one point fifty the Dodgers

409
00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:04.079
<v Speaker 2>starting to get players back.

410
00:20:04.160 --> 00:20:05.920
<v Speaker 3>David, We've been knewing this was coming, and.

411
00:20:05.920 --> 00:20:08.000
<v Speaker 2>Tomorrow the Dodgers are gonna have to make some more

412
00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:09.839
<v Speaker 2>roster moves and they're gonna have to make some room

413
00:20:10.160 --> 00:20:12.640
<v Speaker 2>on this twenty six man roster, and.

414
00:20:12.640 --> 00:20:15.559
<v Speaker 11>It feels like that's the reason why they're not activating

415
00:20:15.680 --> 00:20:19.680
<v Speaker 11>Tommy Edmund and Max Munsey tomorrow. The plan is for

416
00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:24.079
<v Speaker 11>Tommy Edmund to be active for tomorrow's game and start

417
00:20:24.200 --> 00:20:26.119
<v Speaker 11>in center field for the Dodgers.

418
00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:29.480
<v Speaker 5>On Tuesday, Max Mounsey returns.

419
00:20:29.079 --> 00:20:32.480
<v Speaker 11>As well, and Dave Roberts actually mentioned this a few

420
00:20:32.559 --> 00:20:36.640
<v Speaker 11>days ago. The Dodgers do not foresee themselves facing many

421
00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:40.480
<v Speaker 11>left handed pitchers, so that means Max Mounsey is going

422
00:20:40.519 --> 00:20:43.000
<v Speaker 11>to get a long runway here at third base. Now

423
00:20:43.279 --> 00:20:46.799
<v Speaker 11>here's the not only the roster decisions. We can get

424
00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:49.440
<v Speaker 11>to that in a second, but also when Max Monsey

425
00:20:49.559 --> 00:20:52.839
<v Speaker 11>comes back on Tuesday, Key k Hernandez has been playing

426
00:20:52.960 --> 00:20:56.799
<v Speaker 11>elite defense at third base and the bat has caught

427
00:20:56.880 --> 00:20:57.960
<v Speaker 11>up now ever since he.

428
00:20:57.920 --> 00:21:01.200
<v Speaker 5>Got his eyes fixed, So that's some interesting as well.

429
00:21:01.440 --> 00:21:04.039
<v Speaker 11>But as far as the roster crunch goes, you know

430
00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:06.519
<v Speaker 11>you're looking at a guy like Nick Ahmed or Andy

431
00:21:06.599 --> 00:21:11.039
<v Speaker 11>Piez on the position group side that may that may

432
00:21:11.079 --> 00:21:14.240
<v Speaker 11>be sent out. There's a good chance Nick Ahmed is

433
00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:18.240
<v Speaker 11>designated for assignment because Tommy Edmund not only plays great

434
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:21.599
<v Speaker 11>defense in center field, he plays great defense at shortstop.

435
00:21:21.839 --> 00:21:23.799
<v Speaker 5>So you have Miguel Rojas.

436
00:21:23.440 --> 00:21:27.200
<v Speaker 11>Tommy Edmund, and if you really need another shortstop, you

437
00:21:27.359 --> 00:21:28.920
<v Speaker 11>have keik A Hernandez.

438
00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:31.279
<v Speaker 5>So that makes Nick Ahmed a.

439
00:21:31.279 --> 00:21:34.440
<v Speaker 11>Guy that is all glove and really not much bat

440
00:21:34.880 --> 00:21:38.319
<v Speaker 11>the odd man out as you just kind of handicap

441
00:21:38.759 --> 00:21:42.680
<v Speaker 11>their roster. Now, when Max Munsey comes back, that's a

442
00:21:42.839 --> 00:21:47.720
<v Speaker 11>greater question. Does Andy Paiz, who has options, be sent

443
00:21:47.799 --> 00:21:51.160
<v Speaker 11>down to Oklahoma City for the remainder of August until

444
00:21:51.759 --> 00:21:55.960
<v Speaker 11>September rosters expand by two or do the Dodgers feel

445
00:21:56.000 --> 00:21:58.119
<v Speaker 11>like Jason Hayward's back is acting up.

446
00:21:58.400 --> 00:21:59.400
<v Speaker 5>He hasn't looked.

447
00:21:59.200 --> 00:22:02.200
<v Speaker 11>Like himself or close to himself from what we saw

448
00:22:02.319 --> 00:22:05.400
<v Speaker 11>a year ago, and he's been battling back issues all

449
00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:08.279
<v Speaker 11>season long. So I feel like those are the three

450
00:22:08.319 --> 00:22:11.480
<v Speaker 11>position players on the bubble. I would be shocked if

451
00:22:11.559 --> 00:22:14.079
<v Speaker 11>Kevin Kiermeyer is the odd man out. How could you

452
00:22:14.279 --> 00:22:17.720
<v Speaker 11>justify sending Kevin Kiermeyer back to the waiver wire with

453
00:22:17.759 --> 00:22:20.960
<v Speaker 11>the way he's not only played defense but also his

454
00:22:21.119 --> 00:22:22.240
<v Speaker 11>back to ball skills.

455
00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:25.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, just don't see that move being a possibility. All right, Dave,

456
00:22:25.359 --> 00:22:26.319
<v Speaker 3>how about this rotation?

457
00:22:26.839 --> 00:22:29.720
<v Speaker 2>River Ryan's out, Tyler Glass now is on the il.

458
00:22:29.799 --> 00:22:32.839
<v Speaker 2>Now what does this rotation look like starting with this

459
00:22:32.920 --> 00:22:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Mariners series tomorrow night.

460
00:22:35.200 --> 00:22:38.759
<v Speaker 11>Well, it starts with our pregame guest today, Gavin Stone,

461
00:22:38.759 --> 00:22:43.039
<v Speaker 11>who is the only ten game winner in this Dodger rotation.

462
00:22:43.559 --> 00:22:44.279
<v Speaker 5>Think about that.

463
00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:48.319
<v Speaker 11>Tyler Glass now got the big money, Yoshiyamamoto got the

464
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:51.160
<v Speaker 11>big money and has barely pitched, and it's young Gavin

465
00:22:51.240 --> 00:22:54.759
<v Speaker 11>Stone that leads the Dodgers with ten wins. So he

466
00:22:54.839 --> 00:22:58.599
<v Speaker 11>will pitch tomorrow against the Mariners, followed by Walker Bueller

467
00:22:58.720 --> 00:23:01.960
<v Speaker 11>and Jack Flaherty. Luckily for the Dodgers, they have a

468
00:23:02.039 --> 00:23:05.680
<v Speaker 11>day off on Thursday and that will provide that day

469
00:23:05.799 --> 00:23:08.039
<v Speaker 11>extra day of rest for the rest of their rotation.

526
00:26:13.519 --> 00:26:17.160
<v Speaker 1>and World Series champion Dodger Rick Monday.

527
00:26:17.839 --> 00:26:19.119
<v Speaker 5>Rickets Kershaw day.

528
00:26:19.240 --> 00:26:21.839
<v Speaker 11>They got the right guy again on the mound to

529
00:26:21.880 --> 00:26:24.640
<v Speaker 11>try to win a series. I guess it always seems

530
00:26:24.640 --> 00:26:27.960
<v Speaker 11>to be no matter how good you think certain guys are,

531
00:26:28.400 --> 00:26:31.839
<v Speaker 11>the Dodgers always come back needing a great performance from Kershaw.

532
00:26:31.960 --> 00:26:33.839
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, and they can use it, you know you and

533
00:26:33.880 --> 00:26:36.799
<v Speaker 6>I have been keeping track of usage also by the

534
00:26:36.839 --> 00:26:41.279
<v Speaker 6>bullpen and a very disappointing outing last night by Bobby Miller,

535
00:26:41.680 --> 00:26:45.559
<v Speaker 6>who was inconsistent, fell behind a lot of hitters, had

536
00:26:45.599 --> 00:26:48.720
<v Speaker 6>four wild pitches that really led to runs. And if

537
00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:51.960
<v Speaker 6>we look at this pitching staff. Now, the bullpen on

538
00:26:52.039 --> 00:26:54.240
<v Speaker 6>this road trip for the Dodgers have played six games,

539
00:26:54.440 --> 00:26:57.359
<v Speaker 6>they've split, they're three and three. The bullpen has had

540
00:26:57.400 --> 00:27:01.079
<v Speaker 6>to work twenty two and a third inning and that's

541
00:27:01.079 --> 00:27:04.519
<v Speaker 6>a very heavy workload because last night, entering the ball game,

542
00:27:04.640 --> 00:27:06.440
<v Speaker 6>it was already a very heavy workload.

543
00:27:06.599 --> 00:27:09.559
<v Speaker 11>And you talk about the trickle down effect, right Rick yesterday,

544
00:27:09.599 --> 00:27:12.240
<v Speaker 11>Tyler Glass now cannot make the start. They have to

545
00:27:12.240 --> 00:27:15.000
<v Speaker 11>call out Bobby Miller, who has had his struggles. They

546
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:18.200
<v Speaker 11>have to use Brent Honeywell, and now the Dodgers need

547
00:27:18.240 --> 00:27:20.599
<v Speaker 11>a fresh arm. And Brent Honeywell, who is so good,

548
00:27:21.440 --> 00:27:24.039
<v Speaker 11>unfortunately gets crunched by the roster.

549
00:27:23.839 --> 00:27:26.759
<v Speaker 6>And it's a numbers game, and yeah, he got caught

550
00:27:26.799 --> 00:27:29.759
<v Speaker 6>in the crunch. There's going to be roster changes each

551
00:27:29.759 --> 00:27:32.000
<v Speaker 6>of the next two days on Monday and Tuesday, because

552
00:27:32.640 --> 00:27:37.319
<v Speaker 6>you've got Edna's going to come back and then Munsey

553
00:27:37.480 --> 00:27:39.240
<v Speaker 6>is going to come back. Those are two back to

554
00:27:39.279 --> 00:27:43.799
<v Speaker 6>back days. Looking forward to that tomorrow and again on Tuesday,

555
00:27:44.240 --> 00:27:47.519
<v Speaker 6>that's going to necessitate each of those days at least

556
00:27:47.519 --> 00:27:49.279
<v Speaker 6>one roster change. Don't know if there's going to be

557
00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:51.640
<v Speaker 6>other ones, and there are other guys on the horizon.

558
00:27:51.759 --> 00:27:53.880
<v Speaker 6>I mean, you look at Walker Buehler, he pitched the

559
00:27:53.960 --> 00:27:57.000
<v Speaker 6>other night in Las Vegas. He's getting closer and closer

560
00:27:57.039 --> 00:27:59.240
<v Speaker 6>to maybe coming back on top of it. So there's

561
00:27:59.240 --> 00:28:01.400
<v Speaker 6>a lot of different things. Chris Taylor started the other

562
00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:05.640
<v Speaker 6>night also, he's getting closer and closer. So yeah, there's

563
00:28:05.680 --> 00:28:07.640
<v Speaker 6>going to be some changes as we look over the

564
00:28:07.680 --> 00:28:10.400
<v Speaker 6>next week to ten days possibly.

565
00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:12.920
<v Speaker 11>I guess we're looking a little bit ahead to Tuesday

566
00:28:12.920 --> 00:28:16.000
<v Speaker 11>when Mondsey is activated. The Dodgers have missed what he

567
00:28:16.160 --> 00:28:18.799
<v Speaker 11>does so well, seeing a lot of pitches. But with

568
00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:21.880
<v Speaker 11>the way Key k Hernandez is playing at third base,

569
00:28:22.519 --> 00:28:26.240
<v Speaker 11>do you feel like maybe it is a platoon situation now.

570
00:28:26.079 --> 00:28:27.960
<v Speaker 6>Well, I would think at least at the get go,

571
00:28:28.039 --> 00:28:30.160
<v Speaker 6>it's going to be that way. Kk Hernandez has really

572
00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:33.599
<v Speaker 6>kind of earned and look see on that end of it,

573
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:37.720
<v Speaker 6>from what he has done from the defensive standpoint, he's

574
00:28:37.720 --> 00:28:40.039
<v Speaker 6>in there today, not at third base. He's at first

575
00:28:40.039 --> 00:28:43.880
<v Speaker 6>base because yesterday in the sixth ending a sharply hit

576
00:28:43.920 --> 00:28:47.839
<v Speaker 6>ball down to first base damaged the finger of Freddie Freeman.

577
00:28:48.039 --> 00:28:50.200
<v Speaker 6>We understand it's going to be on just a day

578
00:28:50.240 --> 00:28:53.519
<v Speaker 6>to day basis. It had a brief, brief chat with

579
00:28:54.079 --> 00:28:55.759
<v Speaker 6>Freeman on the bus on the way to the ballpark.

580
00:28:55.839 --> 00:28:58.039
<v Speaker 6>Nothing to be that concerned about. It's not taped up,

581
00:28:58.039 --> 00:29:01.000
<v Speaker 6>it's not bandage, and it's not in a but it

582
00:29:01.079 --> 00:29:03.559
<v Speaker 6>is something that the doctors want to be able to

583
00:29:03.559 --> 00:29:05.039
<v Speaker 6>maintain and keep an eye on.

584
00:29:05.440 --> 00:29:06.559
<v Speaker 5>How was his demeanor?

585
00:29:06.599 --> 00:29:08.839
<v Speaker 11>Did he seem optimistic that he would be able to

586
00:29:08.839 --> 00:29:09.720
<v Speaker 11>play tomorrow night?

587
00:29:09.839 --> 00:29:14.240
<v Speaker 6>Freddie on the bus to the ballpark is normally with

588
00:29:14.559 --> 00:29:18.920
<v Speaker 6>the headphone on and listening to something, and that's his

589
00:29:19.000 --> 00:29:24.640
<v Speaker 6>normal routine. So he's not the most loquacious on the bus.

590
00:29:25.079 --> 00:29:26.920
<v Speaker 6>He and when he gets on the bus, he's already

591
00:29:26.920 --> 00:29:28.359
<v Speaker 6>in in game mode.

592
00:29:28.640 --> 00:29:31.359
<v Speaker 11>When we talked to Dave Roberts see, you know, obviously

593
00:29:31.400 --> 00:29:35.440
<v Speaker 11>there's that gamesmanship between the two dugouts. Do you believe

594
00:29:35.559 --> 00:29:39.960
<v Speaker 11>with the injury to Freddie Freeman's right middle finger, even

595
00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:42.359
<v Speaker 11>if he can't throw, do you believe he could grip

596
00:29:42.440 --> 00:29:44.559
<v Speaker 11>a bat and maybe swing a bat today for a

597
00:29:44.599 --> 00:29:45.440
<v Speaker 11>pin shit appearance?

598
00:29:45.559 --> 00:29:45.759
<v Speaker 9>Yes?

599
00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:49.920
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I say that only because I don't know the

600
00:29:50.000 --> 00:29:53.640
<v Speaker 6>extent of the injury, how painful it is. If he's

601
00:29:53.680 --> 00:29:57.200
<v Speaker 6>even able to bend that finger. Looking at it on

602
00:29:57.240 --> 00:30:00.000
<v Speaker 6>the bus, I did not see him able to really

603
00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:04.079
<v Speaker 6>manipulate the hand of full range of motion. It's something

604
00:30:04.079 --> 00:30:07.240
<v Speaker 6>that in dire situation I would imagine, yes, he could

605
00:30:07.279 --> 00:30:09.839
<v Speaker 6>bat would be uncomfortable most likely.

606
00:30:10.200 --> 00:30:12.880
<v Speaker 11>You know, it's interesting, Rick, everybody was showing me what

607
00:30:13.000 --> 00:30:15.160
<v Speaker 11>their middle finger looked like today in the clubhouse.

608
00:30:15.200 --> 00:30:17.480
<v Speaker 6>Well you're number one, David, You've always been that way,

609
00:30:17.640 --> 00:30:20.720
<v Speaker 6>and quite frankly, even here in the booth, you've earned

610
00:30:20.759 --> 00:30:21.480
<v Speaker 6>that recognition.

611
00:30:21.599 --> 00:30:23.920
<v Speaker 5>Hey, thank you, Rick. You can hold off on showing

612
00:30:23.920 --> 00:30:25.079
<v Speaker 5>me yours right now.

613
00:30:25.160 --> 00:30:27.839
<v Speaker 6>Well normally when you get you see it in stereo.

614
00:30:28.200 --> 00:30:31.119
<v Speaker 11>Before I'm back out of here. Dodgers win this game.

615
00:30:31.119 --> 00:30:34.480
<v Speaker 11>They have a winning road trip, disappointing split in Milwaukee,

616
00:30:34.480 --> 00:30:36.400
<v Speaker 11>but if they can get away with a win today,

617
00:30:36.759 --> 00:30:38.759
<v Speaker 11>I would say they got to feel good going back home.

618
00:30:38.839 --> 00:30:40.799
<v Speaker 6>I think he's the last two games in Milwaukee that

619
00:30:40.920 --> 00:30:43.440
<v Speaker 6>let games get away from them. They just lost the

620
00:30:43.480 --> 00:30:46.680
<v Speaker 6>game last night, That's what it was. And not the

621
00:30:46.720 --> 00:30:49.240
<v Speaker 6>greatest of pitching, and the Dodgers did not have a

622
00:30:49.480 --> 00:30:50.559
<v Speaker 6>very timely hitting either.

623
00:30:50.839 --> 00:30:54.839
<v Speaker 11>You know, Kershaw understands the situation. He understands the bullpen.

624
00:30:55.200 --> 00:30:59.279
<v Speaker 11>Ben Casparius officially activated here to be coverage for him.

625
00:30:59.279 --> 00:31:01.640
<v Speaker 11>But I have to believe Kershaw is going to give

626
00:31:01.680 --> 00:31:03.240
<v Speaker 11>the Dodgers at least one thing.

627
00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:04.559
<v Speaker 6>That you and I have talked about a lot. When

628
00:31:04.599 --> 00:31:07.240
<v Speaker 6>Kershaw takes them mount, it brings up the level of

629
00:31:07.319 --> 00:31:10.759
<v Speaker 6>expectations with all of his teammates and everybody that watches

630
00:31:10.799 --> 00:31:13.519
<v Speaker 6>Dodger baseball. On top of it, he's that good and

631
00:31:13.559 --> 00:31:14.720
<v Speaker 6>it just raises the bar.

632
00:31:15.079 --> 00:31:18.680
<v Speaker 11>Hopefully the Dodgers can score some runs with no Will Smith,

633
00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:22.039
<v Speaker 11>no Freddie Freeman, no Miguel Rojas and today's getaway day.

634
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:23.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but Austin Barnes is playing.

635
00:31:24.160 --> 00:31:27.119
<v Speaker 6>Hey, he's hitting the ball. Yeah, ker Meyer has been

636
00:31:27.160 --> 00:31:29.920
<v Speaker 6>hitting the ball exceptionally well. Yavin Lux is going to

637
00:31:29.960 --> 00:31:32.640
<v Speaker 6>be elevated the number three spot in the lineup today. Also,

638
00:31:33.000 --> 00:31:35.240
<v Speaker 6>he's knocking the ball, the cover off the ball.

639
00:31:35.279 --> 00:31:37.880
<v Speaker 5>Hey, there's it takes nine, It takes twenty five.

640
00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:40.920
<v Speaker 6>Right, Rick, Yeah, well it will twenty six, twenty seventy

641
00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:43.160
<v Speaker 6>six total. That's really They know that you're in their

642
00:31:43.160 --> 00:31:43.839
<v Speaker 6>corner as well.

643
00:31:43.799 --> 00:31:46.519
<v Speaker 11>David, thanks a lot, Rick, I appreciate the salute yet

644
00:31:46.559 --> 00:31:46.839

00:32:08.680 --> 00:32:11.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm next, so we go high and time with Gavin Stone.

<v Speaker 2>So Dodgers only ten game winners so far this year. Yeah,

657
00:32:16.000 --> 00:32:19.160
<v Speaker 2>we'll talk to Stony next. Dodgers Cardinals first pitch at

658
00:32:19.160 --> 00:32:22.440
<v Speaker 2>eleven fifteen. I'm Sim Kates's Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network.

659

<v Speaker 3>Dodgers and Cardinals.

662
00:32:36.440 --> 00:32:39.400
<v Speaker 2>No Freddie Freeman in the lineup today, still bothered by

663
00:32:39.440 --> 00:32:42.960
<v Speaker 2>a swollen right middle finger that got jammed last night

664
00:32:43.000 --> 00:32:44.880
<v Speaker 2>forced him to come out of the game, not able

665
00:32:44.920 --> 00:32:47.799
<v Speaker 2>to grip a bat. He's dayed today, Dave Roberts saying earlier.

666
00:32:47.799 --> 00:32:50.880
<v Speaker 2>They'll reevaluate him once the team gets back to La.

667
00:32:51.079 --> 00:32:53.759
<v Speaker 2>Clayton Kershaw on the mound today, first pitch coming up

674
00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:11.319
<v Speaker 1>a Dodger player.

675
00:33:11.400 --> 00:33:12.680

<v Speaker 9>Appreciate it anytime, Dave.

682
00:33:26.759 --> 00:33:29.240
<v Speaker 11>Oh yeah, back in Saint louis a team that you

683
00:33:29.279 --> 00:33:31.759
<v Speaker 11>grew up rooting for. What's it been like being at

684
00:33:31.799 --> 00:33:33.960
<v Speaker 11>Bush Stadium as a major league player.

685
00:33:34.200 --> 00:33:35.559
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, it's a lot different feel.

686
00:33:36.079 --> 00:33:39.559
<v Speaker 12>As a kid, it just seemed just so surreal and

687
00:33:39.839 --> 00:33:42.480
<v Speaker 12>like so magical. I mean it still does, but like

688
00:33:42.880 --> 00:33:45.079
<v Speaker 12>it just seems so much bigger. But being down here

689
00:33:45.119 --> 00:33:47.960
<v Speaker 12>and stuff like, it's cool. It's a lot cooler from

690
00:33:48.000 --> 00:33:51.480
<v Speaker 12>down here. It's a shows a lot of years of.

691
00:33:51.400 --> 00:33:54.400
<v Speaker 9>Experience and hard work. How many Cardinals games. Did you

692
00:33:54.480 --> 00:33:56.680
<v Speaker 9>get to I probably.

693
00:33:56.480 --> 00:34:01.920
<v Speaker 12>Went to about four or five growing up. That's probably

694
00:34:01.960 --> 00:34:05.079
<v Speaker 12>like seven the first time I came. But yeah, last

695
00:34:05.079 --> 00:34:07.440
<v Speaker 12>time I was here was twenty seventeen.

696
00:34:08.119 --> 00:34:10.400
<v Speaker 11>So you got a better seat these days than when

697
00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:12.079
<v Speaker 11>you were a kid. Where would you sit here at

698
00:34:12.079 --> 00:34:12.840
<v Speaker 11>Bush Stadium?

699
00:34:13.880 --> 00:34:15.960
<v Speaker 12>I think the first time I actually sat at the

700
00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:17.679
<v Speaker 12>top in left field.

701
00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:18.199
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

702
00:34:18.920 --> 00:34:23.320
<v Speaker 12>Once I sat behind home plate, like second deck. Once

703
00:34:23.440 --> 00:34:27.880
<v Speaker 12>I sat up here in the second deck, just behind

704
00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:28.519
<v Speaker 12>third base.

705
00:34:30.480 --> 00:34:31.559
<v Speaker 9>But yeah, it was awesome.

706
00:34:32.280 --> 00:34:35.159
<v Speaker 12>We actually had a U trip World Series here and

707
00:34:35.199 --> 00:34:37.360
<v Speaker 12>we got to walk around the field and stuff like

708
00:34:37.360 --> 00:34:40.079
<v Speaker 12>they usually like to do sometimes, and so yeah, I

709
00:34:40.079 --> 00:34:40.559
<v Speaker 12>remember that.

710
00:34:41.880 --> 00:34:43.920
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, it was awesome, and it's awesome being back here.

711
00:34:44.280 --> 00:34:46.480
<v Speaker 11>Since you're not pitching in this series, have you been

712
00:34:46.519 --> 00:34:48.400
<v Speaker 11>able to take it in more than you would have.

713
00:34:48.960 --> 00:34:51.719
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, it's been it's been nice not having to, you know,

714
00:34:51.800 --> 00:34:54.880
<v Speaker 12>worry about pitching here and then just getting to focus

715
00:34:54.880 --> 00:34:56.599
<v Speaker 12>on seeing family and friends stuff.

716
00:34:56.599 --> 00:34:57.280
<v Speaker 9>It's been nice.

717
00:34:57.360 --> 00:35:00.000
<v Speaker 5>Oh yeah, how many family and friends did come to visit?

718
00:35:00.519 --> 00:35:02.320
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, there was a lot, a lot of my buddies came,

719
00:35:02.840 --> 00:35:05.800
<v Speaker 12>a lot of friends and family from around the area.

720
00:35:05.920 --> 00:35:06.920
<v Speaker 9>So yeah, it's been cool.

721
00:35:07.199 --> 00:35:08.199
<v Speaker 5>So it's out there now.

722
00:35:08.239 --> 00:35:11.760
<v Speaker 11>Your favorite player growing up was David Eckstein, but I

723
00:35:11.800 --> 00:35:15.440
<v Speaker 11>was surprised to hear when you started to gravitate towards pitching,

724
00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:19.119
<v Speaker 11>Joe Kelly was your favorite player. What's it like being

725
00:35:19.159 --> 00:35:21.360
<v Speaker 11>teammates with Joe? Is he everything that you thought he

726
00:35:21.400 --> 00:35:21.719
<v Speaker 11>would be?

727
00:35:22.239 --> 00:35:25.480
<v Speaker 9>Oh? Yeah, Joe's my favorite pitcher ever?

728
00:35:25.599 --> 00:35:28.719
<v Speaker 12>And yeah, he's He's more than what I thought he'd be.

729
00:35:28.800 --> 00:35:31.039
<v Speaker 12>He's even crazier and so I actually get to like

730
00:35:31.079 --> 00:35:34.199
<v Speaker 12>play with him and see what he's like. He's one

731
00:35:34.199 --> 00:35:37.079
<v Speaker 12>of a con for sure, and so it's been it's

732
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:38.760
<v Speaker 12>been an honor, you know, to get to be on

733
00:35:38.840 --> 00:35:39.719
<v Speaker 12>the same team as him.

734
00:35:39.880 --> 00:35:42.039
<v Speaker 11>I don't know about you, but it feels like whenever

735
00:35:42.400 --> 00:35:45.360
<v Speaker 11>I'm least expecting it, he sneaks up on you and

736
00:35:45.440 --> 00:35:46.559
<v Speaker 11>completely rattles you.

737
00:35:46.760 --> 00:35:49.000
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, he does, he does. He's a good yeah though,

738
00:35:49.000 --> 00:35:50.679
<v Speaker 9>he's a great guy. Yeah.

739
00:35:50.719 --> 00:35:53.519
<v Speaker 5>What's the one thing that you love that Joe Kelly did?

740
00:35:53.599 --> 00:35:56.079
<v Speaker 11>Was it the way he had mound presence and was

741
00:35:56.119 --> 00:35:59.320
<v Speaker 11>aggressive in the strike zone? What what made you gravitate

742
00:35:59.360 --> 00:35:59.920
<v Speaker 11>towards Joe?

743
00:36:00.119 --> 00:36:02.559
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, all of that, like just his mentality in general,

744
00:36:02.599 --> 00:36:05.639
<v Speaker 12>in the way that he you know, I guess really

745
00:36:05.760 --> 00:36:08.199
<v Speaker 12>was just throwing slow as a starter or slower as

746
00:36:08.199 --> 00:36:10.679
<v Speaker 12>a starter and then just kindle all that vlo you know,

747
00:36:10.840 --> 00:36:12.800
<v Speaker 12>so quick and so to see that just really gave

748
00:36:12.840 --> 00:36:15.599
<v Speaker 12>me confidence of you know, like I have a chance,

749
00:36:15.679 --> 00:36:18.760
<v Speaker 12>like I can work to throw hard like that too,

750
00:36:19.480 --> 00:36:22.920
<v Speaker 12>And like I said, just to be on team with him.

751
00:36:22.800 --> 00:36:23.920
<v Speaker 9>Is pretty cool.

752
00:36:24.239 --> 00:36:27.440
<v Speaker 11>Yeavin, You're the dodgers only ten game winner. What does

753
00:36:27.480 --> 00:36:29.800
<v Speaker 11>that mean for you as far as being the most

754
00:36:29.840 --> 00:36:33.199
<v Speaker 11>reliable starter as well? Because Kershaw always talks about the

755
00:36:33.239 --> 00:36:35.960
<v Speaker 11>wins are a product of him being out there. You've

756
00:36:36.000 --> 00:36:39.239
<v Speaker 11>made twenty two starts, twenty three tomorrow. It's turned into

757
00:36:39.280 --> 00:36:40.039
<v Speaker 11>a really good year.

758
00:36:40.559 --> 00:36:40.800
<v Speaker 9>Yeah.

759
00:36:40.840 --> 00:36:42.480
<v Speaker 12>I mean every time I get the ball, I'm just

760
00:36:42.480 --> 00:36:43.920
<v Speaker 12>trying to go out there and get a win for us.

761
00:36:44.960 --> 00:36:46.880
<v Speaker 12>You know, we need them really bad right now. So

762
00:36:47.159 --> 00:36:50.760
<v Speaker 12>any chance I can get that's my goal. But it's

763
00:36:50.760 --> 00:36:52.360
<v Speaker 12>all about just having fun. It's a lot of fun

764
00:36:52.400 --> 00:36:54.920
<v Speaker 12>out there, and so when you have a defense as

765
00:36:54.920 --> 00:36:56.960
<v Speaker 12>good as ours, it makes it a lot easier to

766
00:36:56.960 --> 00:36:59.599
<v Speaker 12>get those wins in an offense when you got you know,

767
00:36:59.679 --> 00:37:02.760
<v Speaker 12>Mookie Freddy's show, Hey at the top, So they make

768
00:37:02.800 --> 00:37:03.800
<v Speaker 12>it a lot easier.

769
00:37:03.519 --> 00:37:05.679
<v Speaker 9>Definitely, But yeah, it's been. It's been pretty.

770
00:37:05.400 --> 00:37:08.280
<v Speaker 11>Fun being a rookie with those type of veterans that

771
00:37:08.320 --> 00:37:09.880
<v Speaker 11>you describe playing behind you.

772
00:37:10.440 --> 00:37:11.119
<v Speaker 9>What's it like.

773
00:37:11.159 --> 00:37:13.159
<v Speaker 11>Do you feel like you have more confidence because you

774
00:37:13.280 --> 00:37:14.679
<v Speaker 11>know you have guys behind you?

775
00:37:15.039 --> 00:37:15.280
<v Speaker 7>Yeah?

776
00:37:15.360 --> 00:37:19.840
<v Speaker 12>Absolutely, I mean our lineup is unbelievable and so it

777
00:37:19.880 --> 00:37:21.599
<v Speaker 12>makes it a lot easier to kind of just work

778
00:37:21.639 --> 00:37:22.480
<v Speaker 12>in and out of the zone.

779
00:37:22.679 --> 00:37:22.840
<v Speaker 9>Uh.

780
00:37:24.639 --> 00:37:26.840
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, it's it's really cool, you know, to look back

781
00:37:26.880 --> 00:37:28.320
<v Speaker 12>and see those guys behind me.

782
00:37:28.679 --> 00:37:30.599
<v Speaker 11>We know that Gavin Stone put in a lot of

783
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:33.239
<v Speaker 11>work during the off season. You came to spring training

784
00:37:33.239 --> 00:37:35.960
<v Speaker 11>a more refined pitcher. Can you take us through the

785
00:37:36.000 --> 00:37:39.079
<v Speaker 11>evolution of this season? How have you gotten better as

786
00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:40.679
<v Speaker 11>the season has gone forward?

787
00:37:41.119 --> 00:37:42.679
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, I mean I think it's just been trying to

788
00:37:42.880 --> 00:37:44.360
<v Speaker 12>stay consistent as possible.

789
00:37:45.880 --> 00:37:48.000
<v Speaker 9>You know last year it just wasn't as consistent.

790
00:37:48.079 --> 00:37:51.039
<v Speaker 12>So that was really the main focus, you know, throughout

791
00:37:51.039 --> 00:37:54.400
<v Speaker 12>the long process of the season, and Connor Mark, you know,

792
00:37:54.480 --> 00:37:57.079
<v Speaker 12>we have great guys to kind of just help and

793
00:37:57.199 --> 00:38:01.559
<v Speaker 12>keep everything the same, and so yeah, that's that's really

794
00:38:01.639 --> 00:38:02.000
<v Speaker 12>just been it.

795
00:38:02.079 --> 00:38:05.760
<v Speaker 9>He's trying to stay consistent and just trusting.

796
00:38:05.840 --> 00:38:09.039
<v Speaker 11>My routine today is cruse Shaw day. I've seen you

797
00:38:09.079 --> 00:38:12.639
<v Speaker 11>out there watching his bullpen sessions. What's it like to

798
00:38:12.679 --> 00:38:15.480
<v Speaker 11>see one of the greatest pictures? Do the behind the

799
00:38:15.519 --> 00:38:17.440
<v Speaker 11>scenes work for days like today?

800
00:38:17.719 --> 00:38:19.840
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, that's how you learn, Honestly, That's how I like

801
00:38:19.840 --> 00:38:22.079
<v Speaker 12>to learn, is just to watch these guys and and

802
00:38:22.360 --> 00:38:24.800
<v Speaker 12>see how they go about their you know, daily work

803
00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:26.960
<v Speaker 12>throughout the year, at different parts of the year, at

804
00:38:26.960 --> 00:38:30.800
<v Speaker 12>different times during the day. And so, yeah, just to

805
00:38:31.480 --> 00:38:33.599
<v Speaker 12>get to be you know, like same with the same

806
00:38:33.599 --> 00:38:35.360
<v Speaker 12>over with Joe, Like he's Hall of Famer and so

807
00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:37.280
<v Speaker 12>to get to be on the same staff as him

808
00:38:37.559 --> 00:38:38.119
<v Speaker 12>is really cooling.

809
00:38:38.159 --> 00:38:40.719
<v Speaker 9>To get to learn from him. You know, I'm trying

810
00:38:40.719 --> 00:38:41.880
<v Speaker 9>to pick up as much as I can.

811
00:38:42.159 --> 00:38:45.360
<v Speaker 11>What have you learned about how he approaches his work

812
00:38:45.440 --> 00:38:47.840
<v Speaker 11>in between starts as far as cruise shot goes.

813
00:38:48.360 --> 00:38:50.199
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, I mean he doesn't take any days off, and

814
00:38:50.360 --> 00:38:51.519
<v Speaker 12>I think that's really the key.

815
00:38:52.039 --> 00:38:54.400
<v Speaker 9>Uh. He's always one of the first people here.

816
00:38:54.440 --> 00:38:56.880
<v Speaker 12>He's always I mean, he's always you can tell he

817
00:38:56.920 --> 00:38:59.440
<v Speaker 12>loves the game. He's always you know, doing something out

818
00:38:59.480 --> 00:39:01.079
<v Speaker 12>here on the field. And so to see that and

819
00:39:01.760 --> 00:39:03.360
<v Speaker 12>admire that, it's pretty cool.

820
00:39:03.719 --> 00:39:06.400
<v Speaker 11>Earlier on this road trip, like you said, he's watching

821
00:39:06.440 --> 00:39:08.599
<v Speaker 11>the game. He came up with a big assist when

822
00:39:08.679 --> 00:39:12.440
<v Speaker 11>Juli Ortizmith's second base was that sutter a wake up

823
00:39:12.480 --> 00:39:15.559
<v Speaker 11>call for everybody to pay attention to what's going on

824
00:39:15.639 --> 00:39:17.599
<v Speaker 11>in the game, even though you may not be playing.

825
00:39:17.960 --> 00:39:20.239
<v Speaker 9>Oh yeah, absolutely, and Chris is the best at it.

826
00:39:20.599 --> 00:39:22.400
<v Speaker 12>He's locked in every game and yeah, and you can

827
00:39:22.440 --> 00:39:25.079
<v Speaker 12>tell he's out here watching, observing and stuff like that.

828
00:39:25.119 --> 00:39:27.639
<v Speaker 12>And so he's probably the only one that picked up

829
00:39:27.679 --> 00:39:29.840
<v Speaker 12>on that, because I don't even think I mean, dog

830
00:39:29.920 --> 00:39:30.679
<v Speaker 12>might not even.

831
00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:32.880
<v Speaker 9>Picked up on it. But yeah, Chris comes from sprinting

832
00:39:32.920 --> 00:39:33.199
<v Speaker 9>down the.

833
00:39:33.199 --> 00:39:35.639
<v Speaker 5>Dugout that was a big victory.

834
00:39:35.760 --> 00:39:38.559
<v Speaker 12>Oh that was huge. Yeah that was huge. But yeah,

835
00:39:38.559 --> 00:39:39.760
<v Speaker 12>that's just the kind of guy he is.

836
00:39:40.320 --> 00:39:43.440
<v Speaker 11>He always talks about change up envy. Going back five

837
00:39:43.519 --> 00:39:46.239
<v Speaker 11>or six years, has he talked to you about your changeup?

838
00:39:47.280 --> 00:39:47.760
<v Speaker 7>Not a lot.

839
00:39:47.880 --> 00:39:49.679
<v Speaker 12>I mean I ask him like every now and then

840
00:39:49.679 --> 00:39:52.480
<v Speaker 12>how it feels and stuff, and like what his grip is.

841
00:39:53.880 --> 00:39:55.639
<v Speaker 12>But I think he just knows that it's more of

842
00:39:55.639 --> 00:39:59.039
<v Speaker 12>a secondary patient, so he's not trying to make it nasty.

843
00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:01.119
<v Speaker 9>But it's still a great bitch.

844
00:40:01.119 --> 00:40:03.159
<v Speaker 12>I think he's I think you'll I think it'll be

845
00:40:03.159 --> 00:40:04.960
<v Speaker 12>good at the end of the year too, So we'll.

846
00:40:04.800 --> 00:40:07.320
<v Speaker 11>See you feel like he's not giving it enough due.

847
00:40:07.440 --> 00:40:10.079
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, I mean he's used it in good counts past

848
00:40:10.079 --> 00:40:11.800
<v Speaker 12>two games and it's worked.

849
00:40:11.559 --> 00:40:12.639
<v Speaker 4>So love it.

850
00:40:12.719 --> 00:40:14.880
<v Speaker 11>Can't wait to see the change up with Gavin Stone

<v Speaker 2>Dodgers in Saint Louis is a rap of this three

911
00:43:07.800 --> 00:43:10.800
<v Speaker 2>game set with the Cardinals. Clayton Kershaw on the Mount,

912
00:43:10.800 --> 00:43:13.360
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers looking for the series win. After a four game

913
00:43:13.920 --> 00:43:16.559
<v Speaker 2>split in Milwaukee, Dodgers will head home for a nine

914
00:43:16.559 --> 00:43:19.719
<v Speaker 2>game homestand beginning tomorrow, first up three games against the Mariners.

920
00:43:35.719 --> 00:43:36.440
<v Speaker 5>Thank you very much.

921
00:43:36.480 --> 00:43:38.719
<v Speaker 4>Tim. Getting ready for this one in Saint Louis.

922
00:43:38.760 --> 00:43:39.920
<v Speaker 5>Beautiful day for it.

923
00:43:40.079 --> 00:43:43.079
<v Speaker 4>Dodgers will wrap up this road trip today, looking to

924
00:43:43.440 --> 00:43:46.079
<v Speaker 4>get a winning road trip with a win here, and

925
00:43:46.199 --> 00:43:48.440
<v Speaker 4>they have won four of six against the Cardinals so

926
00:43:48.480 --> 00:43:51.960
<v Speaker 4>far this season. Clayton Kershaw one and two, eleven and

927
00:43:52.039 --> 00:43:56.039
<v Speaker 4>seven for Sonny Gray for Gray is twenty third start,

928
00:43:56.559 --> 00:43:59.559
<v Speaker 4>one thing about the Dodgers today offensively, they need to

929
00:43:59.559 --> 00:44:01.960
<v Speaker 4>find a way to lift and separate, meaning hit the

930
00:44:01.960 --> 00:44:04.480
<v Speaker 4>ball out of the ballpark, as Gray has given up

931
00:44:04.519 --> 00:44:07.719
<v Speaker 4>more than double the number of home runs this year

932
00:44:07.800 --> 00:44:10.679
<v Speaker 4>with the Cardinals than he did last year with the

933
00:44:10.719 --> 00:44:11.400
<v Speaker 4>Minnesota Twin.

934
00:44:11.519 --> 00:44:13.599
<v Speaker 6>And the other part too, is Sonny Gray was seventeen

935
00:44:13.639 --> 00:44:16.599
<v Speaker 6>home runs, but nine of those have come since the

936
00:44:16.719 --> 00:44:19.400
<v Speaker 6>All Star Break has taken place, and he's won in

937
00:44:19.480 --> 00:44:22.880
<v Speaker 6>three six starts career against the Dodgers. We said before

938
00:44:22.960 --> 00:44:27.159
<v Speaker 6>Clayton Kershaw's last outing that was on Monday and Milwaukee,

939
00:44:27.519 --> 00:44:29.920
<v Speaker 6>he had made a comment the night before and here's

940
00:44:29.960 --> 00:44:33.199
<v Speaker 6>the quote, I've got to figure out how to maintain

941
00:44:33.320 --> 00:44:35.079
<v Speaker 6>my pitch count. Well that's what he did in the

942
00:44:35.159 --> 00:44:38.159
<v Speaker 6>last out. He went five and two thirds, very good baseball,

943
00:44:38.239 --> 00:44:41.920
<v Speaker 6>one run, only three hits. And for Clayton Kershaw here

944
00:44:42.079 --> 00:44:44.559
<v Speaker 6>this afternoon is going to make career start number four

945
00:44:44.639 --> 00:44:47.239
<v Speaker 6>hundred and twenty seven and try and pick up his

946
00:44:47.400 --> 00:44:49.480
<v Speaker 6>two hundred and twelfth victory.

947
00:44:49.719 --> 00:44:52.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, for Kershaw against the Cardinals. This will be his

948
00:44:52.960 --> 00:44:56.440
<v Speaker 4>twenty second career start, ten and six with an ERA

949
00:44:56.559 --> 00:44:59.920
<v Speaker 4>of an even three. He's only allowed five home runs.

950
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:03.199
<v Speaker 4>He's in one hundred and thirty five innings pitched against

951
00:45:03.199 --> 00:45:05.239
<v Speaker 4>this ball club over the course of his career.

952
00:45:05.280 --> 00:45:07.440
<v Speaker 6>We're going to find out about that curveball with Kershaw

953
00:45:07.519 --> 00:45:10.719
<v Speaker 6>also because the last downing the curveball was there. He

954
00:45:10.840 --> 00:45:13.639
<v Speaker 6>set up with the slider and he surprised a few

955
00:45:13.719 --> 00:45:17.679
<v Speaker 6>people with that fastball. Really good location on top of it,

956
00:45:17.719 --> 00:45:20.679
<v Speaker 6>so he was able to maintain the pitch County and

957
00:45:20.679 --> 00:45:23.559
<v Speaker 6>hopefully that carries over today. I know one group that's

958
00:45:23.559 --> 00:45:25.519
<v Speaker 6>hoping that happens. That's the bullpen.

959
00:45:26.079 --> 00:45:29.480
<v Speaker 4>And in the bullpen, Ben Casparius today called up from

960
00:45:29.519 --> 00:45:34.079
<v Speaker 4>TRIPAA Oklahoma City. Brent Honeywell has been designated for assignment,

961
00:45:34.480 --> 00:45:36.920
<v Speaker 4>and if Casparius gets in, it'll be his major league

962
00:45:36.960 --> 00:45:40.320
<v Speaker 4>debut and he is available as a long reliever today

963
00:45:40.920 --> 00:45:44.039
<v Speaker 4>Cardinals and Dodgers. Rubber game of this three game sent

964
00:45:44.119 --> 00:45:44.800
<v Speaker 4>coming up to him.

965
00:45:45.199 --> 00:45:47.880
<v Speaker 2>All right, first pitch, all week, come back, don't forget

966
00:45:47.960 --> 00:45:50.679
<v Speaker 2>afterwards all of all the postgame festivities. We'll keep an

967
00:45:50.679 --> 00:45:53.960
<v Speaker 2>eye on what's happening in Denver with the Rockies taking

968
00:45:54.079 --> 00:45:57.800
<v Speaker 2>on the Padres, and of course Arizona on the road

969
00:45:57.800 --> 00:46:00.599
<v Speaker 2>in Tampa taken on the Rays. Dodgers games up on

970
00:46:00.639 --> 00:46:03.920
<v Speaker 2>the Padres, three games up on the Snakes in the Division.

971
00:46:04.079 --> 00:46:07.559
<v Speaker 2>First Pitches next, Dodgers in Saint Louis, wrapping up this

972
00:46:07.639 --> 00:46:10.960
<v Speaker 2>series against the Cardinals. I'm Tim Kates has been wrong
