It's 2 00:00:04.120 --> 00:00:05.280 Tim kays. 3 00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:10.320 Hi everybody, and welcome in too, Molrongo Casino and Dodgers 4 00:00:10.320 --> 00:00:14.400 on deck. Hope you're well on this beautiful Sunday afternoon. 5 00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:17.879 Your Dodgers eleven and five to start this season. After 6 00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:20.359 a shutout win over the Cubs on Friday night, the 7 00:00:20.399 --> 00:00:25.480 Dodgers suffer their worst shutout loss in franchise history yesterday. 8 00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:28.239 Now they gotta put that behind them and bounce back 9 00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:31.079 in the rubber game of this three game series against Chicago. 10 00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:34.880 It's Sunday Night Baseball from the Ravine, Tyler Glass. 11 00:00:34.920 --> 00:00:35.439 Now on the mount. 12 00:00:35.479 --> 00:00:38.159 First pitch coming up at four to ten, coming up 13 00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:41.479 over the next hour here on Morongo Casino, Dodgers on deck. 14 00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:43.159 We got a lot to get to and not a 15 00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:45.640 lot of time. You're gonna hear from the manager, Dave Roberts. 16 00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:48.920 We're gonna preview this pitching matchup. David Vatsay is gonna 17 00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:52.159 go one on one with Yoshinobu Yamamoto. That is coming 18 00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:55.320 up in forty five minutes. We got your Dodgers magical 19 00:00:55.439 --> 00:00:58.520 moment of the game, your price picks double play of 20 00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:00.200 the day in just a few minutes, we'll say it 21 00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:02.719 out to the Gallpin Motors broadcast booth, and here from 22 00:01:02.759 --> 00:01:06.519 Stephen Nelson and Rick Monday. Well, last night Sazaki battled 23 00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:09.799 through five innings, but then the wheels fell off and 24 00:01:09.879 --> 00:01:13.159 a lopsided loss. Rookie Sazaki got the start. The young 25 00:01:13.239 --> 00:01:16.439 Japanese right hander would go the furthest he's gone all season. 26 00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:18.799 Five innings, he allowed one run on four hits while 27 00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:21.200 striking out three along the way. He got some help 28 00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:24.439 on defense. In the third, bases loaded two outs. Former 29 00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:27.640 Dodger Michael Bush sat went deep the center. 30 00:01:28.319 --> 00:01:30.719 Trying to keep the depth sit at one. The two 31 00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:35.120 in one pitch, Bush swinging a high drive center field. 32 00:01:35.120 --> 00:01:37.640 Pie has on the run, he's at the wall, he 33 00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:39.840 leaves he made the catch. 34 00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:43.799 Handy Paez, Did you took one. 35 00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:47.879 Away from Michael Bush had helped Sasaki leave him loaded 36 00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:48.640 in the third. 37 00:01:49.959 --> 00:01:51.519 Put a star on that one. 38 00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:52.640 Rick Monday. 39 00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:58.439 Put three stars on it for Paez, who had trouble 40 00:01:58.519 --> 00:02:03.480 going back on the ball, and Philadelphia eight tracted perfectly 41 00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:07.640 made the lead hit defense and held on to it. 42 00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:11.439 What a play, Andy bas What a great leaping catch 43 00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:13.879 in center field. Robbie Bush of a Grand Slam. That 44 00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:15.319 is the top tier play of the game, brought to 45 00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:18.199 by Arco quality, top tier gas for less, that was 46 00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:20.280 the only highlight of the night for the Dodgers. Though 47 00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:23.199 the offense had six hits, that was it, only a 48 00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:26.080 few opportunities with runners in scoring position. Meanwhile, the Cubs 49 00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:28.240 offense went to work with a two to nothing lead 50 00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:31.319 in the seventh, The Cubs scored five runs in the inning, 51 00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:33.400 four more in the eighth, five more in the ninth. 52 00:02:33.639 --> 00:02:34.599 The Cubs got. 53 00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:37.800 Fourteen runs on fifteen hits in the final three innings. 54 00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:40.680 Gasparius Garcia got roughed up. Then the game was out 55 00:02:40.719 --> 00:02:43.719 of reach, so Miguel Rojas actually pitched the last two innings. 56 00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:46.879 Hads a fun out there, mimicking Clayton Kershaw's delivery other 57 00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:51.400 Dodger pitchers, but nothing funny about the Dodgers losing sixteen 58 00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:55.800 to nothing. It is the worst shutout home loss in 59 00:02:56.039 --> 00:03:01.080 Dodger franchise history. Michael Bush had four hits, including a 60 00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:04.080 home run, in two doubles. The Cubs the top offensive 61 00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:06.680 baseball so far through three weeks, scoring one hundred and 62 00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:09.360 twelve runs. The Dodgers they need to put that game 63 00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:12.319 last night behind him quickly and get ready for today 64 00:03:12.520 --> 00:03:14.400 a chance to take two or three from the Cubbies 65 00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:17.960 to win the series. It's Sunday Night Baseball from Dodgers Stadium. 66 00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:21.120 Beautiful weather here in Los Angeles, as Tyler Glass now 67 00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:22.879 is on the mountain with more, head out to the 68 00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:26.240 Gallpin Motors Broadcast booth and welcome in Steven Nelson and 69 00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:27.560 Rick Monday. 70 00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:29.039 Guys, Thank you Tim. 71 00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:32.360 It is a Sunday afternoon, getting ready for Sunday Night 72 00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:35.319 baseball and the rubber match of this three game series 73 00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:38.840 for the Dodgers against the Chicago Cubs. And mope, we 74 00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:41.199 don't need to spend a ton of time dissecting what 75 00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:43.120 happened last night with the Dodgers. 76 00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:44.159 I thank goodness. 77 00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:45.719 Obviously it was brutal. 78 00:03:45.800 --> 00:03:49.520 It was the worst home shutout loss in franchise history. 79 00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.719 I and we've heard both sides like, look, we tried 80 00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:56.159 to sort of lighten the mood, laugh through the pain 81 00:03:56.319 --> 00:03:58.280 last night, but there was a lot of frustration. He 82 00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:01.000 sens it on the postgame show with our good buddy 83 00:04:01.080 --> 00:04:04.080 David Basse and some fans who are driving home as well. 84 00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:07.599 I'm curious from the player's mindset in the clubhouse when 85 00:04:07.639 --> 00:04:11.360 you cause that. Ultimately, whether whatever side of the spectrum 86 00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:13.199 you're on, whether you didn't care and you laughed off 87 00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:15.800 last night or you did care and you hated last night, 88 00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:19.160 the only thing that does matter is how the players 89 00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:20.519 got through that game last night. 90 00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:23.040 Yes, there may have been some smiles last night, but 91 00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:25.639 it was not on an entertainment type of a smile. 92 00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:28.720 Those actually hurt. They don't hurt as bad as far 93 00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:31.839 as gut wrenching, say losing a game in the tenth 94 00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:35.000 inning by one run on a weird play, But those 95 00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:38.160 are embarrassing. These are professionals. They don't like to happen. 96 00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:41.839 And you know what got lost in the transition was 97 00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:45.439 the outing by Roki Suzaki, who went five innings, allowed 98 00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:48.720 just one run on four hints, and threw eighty one 99 00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:50.639 pitches on that end of it. So he had a 100 00:04:50.759 --> 00:04:53.839 much better outing that really got lost in an overall 101 00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:56.519 in the translation in looking at that game last night. 102 00:04:56.439 --> 00:04:59.639 Yeah, I think that's spun on mo because what we've 103 00:04:59.639 --> 00:05:03.680 seen Ki the last couple outings, especially the most hostile 104 00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:06.279 place you can go to on the road, which is Philadelphia, 105 00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:09.279 he took a big step forward and last night against 106 00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:11.040 the best offense in baseball. 107 00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:12.439 He took another step forward. 108 00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:15.399 Yes, Andy paj has made a great play, but that's 109 00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:18.079 what your defense is there for. And you know, pitchers 110 00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:21.360 pick up teams. Sometimes pitchers need picking up two and 111 00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:23.560 that's what Andy did last night. But whatever the case, 112 00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:24.759 it was a big step forward. 113 00:05:24.519 --> 00:05:26.240 For that and I'm glad he brought up the catch 114 00:05:26.279 --> 00:05:28.000 by Paz and I would I don't know what the 115 00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:30.600 fact too. He made another good catch to sliding catch 116 00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:32.879 the second batter in the ball game, Yes, sliding in 117 00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:35.600 center field, and that was the takeaway a base hit 118 00:05:35.639 --> 00:05:38.199 bid by Kyle Tucker. So that's a big turnaround because 119 00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:41.759 Pa Haz had difficulty in Philadelphia in judging a couple 120 00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:44.959 of balls, so that's a strong point for him. I 121 00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:47.879 think in games like that last night, which is in 122 00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:50.480 total disarray if you start to analyze it after the 123 00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:53.040 fifth inning, but if you look at those games, you'd 124 00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:56.199 try and draw those positive ends of it. And that's 125 00:05:56.199 --> 00:05:57.800 one of the things that Dave Roberts was talking about, 126 00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:01.439 because he addressed both Pajes and Suzaki in the postgame show. 127 00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:01.759 YEP. 128 00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:03.600 The last thing, Tim is to get it back to 129 00:06:04.439 --> 00:06:07.600 I think you know, seeing Rojas. That was it went 130 00:06:07.639 --> 00:06:10.120 on and ending longer than anybody wants to. When you 131 00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:12.040 have a position player on the mountain, things have obviously 132 00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:16.079 gone terribly wrong. But if something like that, the skit 133 00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:19.439 like that can help the boys' top step or in 134 00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:22.759 the clubhouse kind of laugh off one of one hundred 135 00:06:22.800 --> 00:06:25.839 and sixty two can help bomb them in some way 136 00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:30.759 through again the massive disappointment of being blown out like that, 137 00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:34.319 then maybe maybe that could be a positive. Ultimately, they 138 00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:36.079 got one of their races on the mount today. Tyler 139 00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:38.759 glassnow against Colin Ray. Will dive into that pitching matchup 140 00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:39.600 a little bit later. 141 00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:41.360 All right, thank you, Nelly, So count you down to 142 00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:43.920 first pitch.

Two pitches high to 166 00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:05.839 throw from second is gonna skip away from days by Swanson. 167 00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:08.920 A stolen base for show, Hey old Tani.

Just wanted to make sure 235 00:11:47.559 --> 00:11:52.320 that he feels confident going into his next one, which 236 00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:56.799 he does. I just really appreciated his comments after the 237 00:11:56.840 --> 00:11:59.720 outing where he didn't make any excuses and owned it. 238 00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:02.799 And he's a guy that we're gonna count on and 239 00:12:02.840 --> 00:12:06.159 we need him today. It's a beautiful day out, we 240 00:12:06.200 --> 00:12:07.879 have a chance to win a series. I expect him 241 00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:08.679 a pitch well tonight. 242 00:12:08.879 --> 00:12:11.519 When you look at your offense, what do you believe 243 00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:13.000 is kind of the missing factor? 244 00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:13.559 So far? 245 00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:16.679 Otani only has three at bats with runners in scoring 246 00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:19.320 positions so far this season. That seemed to be a 247 00:12:19.360 --> 00:12:21.919 big thing for you last year. As far as turning 248 00:12:21.960 --> 00:12:22.799 that lineup. 249 00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:28.879 Over, yeah, I think I didn't appreciate that stat. I 250 00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:31.799 think it's I think it's a collective. As I've said 251 00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:35.440 it this past week. I just think that offensively, we're 252 00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:40.919 just not taking as many team good team at bats. Obviously, 253 00:12:40.960 --> 00:12:43.360 the guys at the bottom have struggled getting on base, 254 00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:47.039 and so hopefully you know, Kei k and Mickey Road 255 00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:50.039 today can get on base for shohe and turn that 256 00:12:50.120 --> 00:12:53.559 lineup over. I just think right now we just haven't 257 00:12:53.559 --> 00:12:56.480 been synced up, but I think it'll be short lived. 258 00:12:56.679 --> 00:12:59.840 How long into the season do you go before, especially 259 00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:02.440 some of the bottom half struggles become more of a 260 00:13:02.480 --> 00:13:05.639 concern outside it just like a small early season sample. 261 00:13:07.159 --> 00:13:12.159 Yeah, I think for Andy's situation, I think I've used 262 00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:16.360 that one hundred and fifty played the peer appearance kind 263 00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:20.720 of benchmark. I think Key k figures some things out 264 00:13:21.639 --> 00:13:25.240 offensively last couple of days in his work that we're 265 00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:27.799 gonna start team some better at bats. It was good 266 00:13:27.840 --> 00:13:30.919 to see Mickey thought a couple of hits, but I think, 267 00:13:32.480 --> 00:13:36.799 you know, these are our guys right now, so I'm 268 00:13:36.840 --> 00:13:39.080 gonna just continue to run him out there and sort 269 00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:42.240 of mix and match and and obviously I got to 270 00:13:42.279 --> 00:13:45.240 find a way to, you know, include Chris Taylor as 271 00:13:45.279 --> 00:13:48.000 well to kind of get him get him some at 272 00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:48.480 bats too. 273 00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:50.679 Was this a planned off day for Freddy or is 274 00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:52.759 he just based off how he felt coming out of 275 00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:53.440 these first. 276 00:13:53.240 --> 00:13:54.879 Days he planned off day. 277 00:13:55.200 --> 00:13:59.200 He was either gonna take today or tomorrow off given 278 00:13:59.240 --> 00:14:02.000 that we have six and a row. I wasn't gonna 279 00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:04.360 play six in a row. So we just felt that 280 00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:07.360 today would be the best day and then we'll run 281 00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:09.039 them for three against the Rockies. 282 00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:12.399 All right, there's Dave Roberts his pregame thoughts as we 283 00:14:12.519 --> 00:14:14.879 lead you up to first pitch on this Sunday Dodgers 284 00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:17.320 and Cubs. When we continue here on Wrongo Casino Dodgers 285 00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:19.759 on Deck, we will check in with David Vasse from 286 00:14:19.799 --> 00:14:21.759 leading up to first pitch. Don't go anywhere. I'm Tim 287 00:14:21.799 --> 00:14:27.159 Casey is the world champion Los Angeles Dodgers Audio Network. 288 00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:33.440 This is Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck on your home 289 00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:35.559 for the Blue all season. 290 00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:40.039 Law Dodgers in Cubs Sunday Night Baseball from Dodger Stadium. 291 00:14:40.039 --> 00:14:42.879 Tyler Glass now calling ray the pitching matchup. First pitch 292 00:14:42.919 --> 00:14:44.360 coming up at four. 293 00:14:44.200 --> 00:14:48.799 Ten, Joining Tim Cates on Dodgers on Deck. 294 00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:52.000 I accept everybody for who they are. This is Dodger 295 00:14:52.080 --> 00:14:53.919 insider David Basse. 296 00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:54.919 All right, DV. 297 00:14:55.080 --> 00:14:57.240 Last time we saw Tyler glasnaw on the mountain for 298 00:14:57.279 --> 00:15:00.360 the Dodgers, the weather wasn't too good and he wasn't 299 00:15:00.399 --> 00:15:02.919 too good. What do we expect today on this glorious 300 00:15:02.919 --> 00:15:03.799 Sunday afternoon. 301 00:15:04.639 --> 00:15:07.679 Yeah, I would imagine suns out, guns out. As far 302 00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:11.080 as Tyler Glass now is concerned, it's a beautiful day 303 00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:15.519 at Dodgers Stadium as Sunday Night Baseball will not only 304 00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:18.759 commence here at four to ten, but also not only 305 00:15:18.759 --> 00:15:23.120 the weather being beautiful Southern California weather compared to Philadelphia, 306 00:15:23.200 --> 00:15:26.200 but also as the game moves on in the first hour, 307 00:15:26.279 --> 00:15:29.240 first few winnings of the game, the shadows are going 308 00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:31.279 to be in play tim so that's only going to 309 00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:35.360 benefit glass Now as well. So Dave Roberts gave credit 310 00:15:35.399 --> 00:15:38.080 to glass Now, who after the game in Philadelphia did 311 00:15:38.080 --> 00:15:41.120 not shy away from the fact that he let the 312 00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:44.440 elements affect the way he pitched. And that's not I 313 00:15:44.480 --> 00:15:47.200 guess you can applaud him for that, but he's got 314 00:15:47.240 --> 00:15:49.720 to be better in those type of situations. But today 315 00:15:49.720 --> 00:15:50.600 he should be fine. 316 00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:51.919 David has driven by four. 317 00:15:51.960 --> 00:15:54.120 If there's one thing we like, it's choices find yours 318 00:15:54.120 --> 00:15:56.039 with the four F one to fifty gas hybrid all 319 00:15:56.039 --> 00:15:58.480 electric tough. This mark can only be called the F 320 00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:01.559 one fifty. And we heard from him just a little 321 00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:04.399 while ago, David. Last night, one of the bright spots 322 00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:06.960 for the Dodgers at a sixty to nothing loss was that 323 00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:07.960 catching the third inning. 324 00:16:09.039 --> 00:16:11.639 Yeah, and that's the product of him coming out early. 325 00:16:11.679 --> 00:16:14.600 To work with Dino Eboll, who's now the outfield coach. 326 00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:20.240 Hot Hes has been working every day virtually with Dino 327 00:16:20.399 --> 00:16:23.519 to get better and get better jumps off the baseball, 328 00:16:23.600 --> 00:16:27.320 not only working with the fungal bat where Dino hits 329 00:16:27.399 --> 00:16:31.440 him simulated fly balls, but to be out here during 330 00:16:31.480 --> 00:16:35.080 batting practice to track the baseball off the bat off 331 00:16:35.080 --> 00:16:38.840 of major league hitters during batting practice has been beneficial. 332 00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:42.440 And also he's been working out during batting practice by 333 00:16:42.519 --> 00:16:46.639 running the bases and simulating situations on the basis. So 334 00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:49.240 he's putting in the work and I think we're starting 335 00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:51.840 to see some of that work pay off for him. 336 00:16:52.320 --> 00:16:55.559 What's the latest on Evan Phillips David The Dodgers' bullpen's 337 00:16:55.559 --> 00:16:57.360 been really good, but it certainly he's one of their 338 00:16:57.440 --> 00:17:00.000 high leverage relievers. Been so important to this Dodger team 339 00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:01.320 the last few seasons. 340 00:17:01.519 --> 00:17:02.559 What's the status with Evan? 341 00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:07.640 Yeah, right now, health wise, he feels good and that's 342 00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:11.359 a good sign. He's going to throw another outing on Tuesday, 343 00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:14.920 and Dave Roberts said he's ready to go, but the 344 00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:18.599 Dodgers haven't decided when they are going to activate him, 345 00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:21.079 possibly on the next road trip. There are a lot 346 00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:23.920 of off days as well, not to mention the fact 347 00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:27.759 the Dodger bullpen has thrown more innings than the starters have. 348 00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:30.359 At some point you want to get a fresh arm, 349 00:17:30.359 --> 00:17:33.920 and it's not just another arm, it's the super reliever's arm, 350 00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:37.440 and Evan Phillips that certainly could help the Dodgers shorten 351 00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:40.720 games when they have a lead. So he's ready to go. 352 00:17:40.839 --> 00:17:42.839 It's just a matter of when the Dodgers want to 353 00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:44.119 activate him. 354 00:17:44.200 --> 00:17:46.279 Maybe sometimes fans get caught in the moment. 355 00:17:46.359 --> 00:17:49.440 Last night sixteen, nothing lost since, like, oh no, what's wrong? 356 00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:51.400 But it's one of one's sixty two. 357 00:17:51.720 --> 00:17:53.880 Now that you're around this team this afternoon, less than 358 00:17:53.920 --> 00:17:57.440 twenty four hours later, any fallout from last nine or 359 00:17:57.480 --> 00:17:58.799 is that already behind them? 360 00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:02.599 Yeah, Dave Roberts said, you know, he heard the fans 361 00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:04.960 getting on the team, and rightfully so, with the way 362 00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:09.000 they played and taking their worst shutout loss in franchise 363 00:18:09.160 --> 00:18:12.680 history at Dodgers Stadium. But it just seems like that 364 00:18:12.759 --> 00:18:16.039 may be forgotten with a win today. The Dodgers are 365 00:18:16.079 --> 00:18:19.599 trying to avoid losing their third straight series, so there's 366 00:18:19.640 --> 00:18:22.160 more at stake than just winning this series. The Dodgers 367 00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:24.799 need to start winning some series. The Giants. By the way, 368 00:18:24.920 --> 00:18:28.400 Tim came back again in the Bronx to beat the Yankees. 369 00:18:28.480 --> 00:18:31.759 So it's a competitive nl wes no matter whether or 370 00:18:31.799 --> 00:18:34.720 not you buy or sell the Giants, it's tough right now. 371 00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:37.039 David, you mentioned this when he came back off the 372 00:18:37.160 --> 00:18:39.599 end of the list with Freddie Freeman. He's gonna want 373 00:18:39.599 --> 00:18:41.400 to play every day, but he's not going to play 374 00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:43.839 every day. And we heard Dave Roberts touch on it today. 375 00:18:43.839 --> 00:18:45.440 It's just one of those days they want to get 376 00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:45.960 him off his. 377 00:18:45.880 --> 00:18:48.119 Feet, right, Yeah. 378 00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:50.920 I mean this is something that the Dodgers explained to 379 00:18:50.920 --> 00:18:53.839 Freddie when he came back off the IL. He's not 380 00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:57.160 going to play six straight games. So that's the reason 381 00:18:57.160 --> 00:18:58.680 why he has today off. 382 00:18:58.759 --> 00:19:00.119 And also Dave. 383 00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:03.039 Roberts brought up a great point. Freddie Freeman is going 384 00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:06.839 to have to deal with this right ankle issue all 385 00:19:06.920 --> 00:19:09.920 year long. It's going to have to be a new 386 00:19:09.960 --> 00:19:12.200 normal for him and he's going to have to get 387 00:19:12.200 --> 00:19:15.839 comfortable hitting in this new normal. So that's gonna take 388 00:19:15.880 --> 00:19:19.440 time and repetitions. And you know, after today's day off, 389 00:19:19.480 --> 00:19:21.680 you would hope that there's no looking back as far 390 00:19:21.720 --> 00:19:25.279 as giving Freddy off days, because the Dodgers have plenty 391 00:19:25.279 --> 00:19:28.240 coming up on this road trip before the end of 392 00:19:28.279 --> 00:19:30.880 this month. They got a day off as they travel 393 00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:33.519 to Texas, and then they have an off day in Chicago, 394 00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:35.839 and then they have an off day before the next 395 00:19:35.839 --> 00:19:39.200 homestand begins. So Freddy's gonna have a lot of days 396 00:19:39.200 --> 00:19:39.880 off his feet. 397 00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:40.680 Sounds good. 398 00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:42.720 DV appreciate it.
