WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:03.799
<v Speaker 1>Now your host walking you up to first pitch. It's

2
00:00:03.960 --> 00:00:04.839
<v Speaker 1>David Basse.

3
00:00:06.360 --> 00:00:08.919
<v Speaker 2>The Dodgers are back in ten and we've got a

4
00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:12.359
<v Speaker 2>great pitching matchup tonight. As the Dodgers and Pirates get

5
00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:15.679
<v Speaker 2>ready for Game one of this three game weekend series,

6
00:00:15.720 --> 00:00:18.440
<v Speaker 2>we got the whole family in the booth. Rick Monday's

7
00:00:18.519 --> 00:00:22.640
<v Speaker 2>kissing babies making dreams come true on the anniversary of

8
00:00:22.719 --> 00:00:25.679
<v Speaker 2>him making the great play in American history saving the

9
00:00:25.719 --> 00:00:26.760
<v Speaker 2>American flag.

10
00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:29.519
<v Speaker 3>We will hear from Rick and Steven in just a moment.

11
00:00:29.839 --> 00:00:33.560
<v Speaker 2>But your world champion Los Angeles Dodgers are now sixteen

12
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.840
<v Speaker 2>and nine and no, the sky is not falling. Even

13
00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:39.159
<v Speaker 2>though they did not have a great road trip, which

14
00:00:39.240 --> 00:00:42.039
<v Speaker 2>saw them win just two of the five, they're one

15
00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:44.960
<v Speaker 2>game back of the Padres in the NLS and a

16
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.640
<v Speaker 2>half game back of the Giants, who are in second place. Tonight,

17
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:52.320
<v Speaker 2>like I mentioned, the Dodgers and Pirates are squaring off

18
00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:55.640
<v Speaker 2>for the first of three games. It is Paul's Schemes

19
00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:59.600
<v Speaker 2>for the Pirates and Yoshi Yamamoto for the Dodgers.

20
00:00:59.640 --> 00:00:59.960
<v Speaker 3>Two of the.

21
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:04.640
<v Speaker 2>Best baseball has to offer coming up over the next

22
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:08.040
<v Speaker 2>hour on Morongo Casino. Dodgers on Deck we'll hear from

23
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:12.040
<v Speaker 2>Dodger manager Dave Roberts. Plus we'll preview this great pitching matchup.

24
00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:15.400
<v Speaker 2>I'll go one on one with Sunday starter Tyler Glass

25
00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:17.680
<v Speaker 2>now for the first time this season. So a lot

26
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:21.239
<v Speaker 2>to get to as we continue on this hour journey

27
00:01:21.280 --> 00:01:24.799
<v Speaker 2>to first pitch between the Dodgers and Pirates. All the

28
00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:28.280
<v Speaker 2>way back Wednesday in Chicago, it was a bullpen game

29
00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:31.680
<v Speaker 2>for the Dodgers. It did not go as scripted. Ben

30
00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:34.959
<v Speaker 2>Caspirius got the start. The young right hander was really

31
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:37.799
<v Speaker 2>good for two and two thirds shutout innings, and he

32
00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:40.000
<v Speaker 2>allowed US one hit while striking out four.

33
00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:43.799
<v Speaker 3>The Dodger offense gave Caspiraus a lead to work with.

34
00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:47.760
<v Speaker 2>In the third inning, ta Oscar Hernandez delivered again with

35
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:48.560
<v Speaker 2>two outs.

36
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:53.959
<v Speaker 4>Ta Oscar with five homers, with five doubles, eighteen RBIs

37
00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:57.200
<v Speaker 4>so far this season. He's trying to produce the first

38
00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:02.599
<v Speaker 4>RBI the game. No scoring with two balls, two strikes.

39
00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:06.040
<v Speaker 4>Here's the pitch and Tascar early, so nobody's hit to

40
00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:09.840
<v Speaker 4>the field. Conferdo scores Barnes hustling home.

41
00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:11.520
<v Speaker 3>The throw home is late.

42
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:15.919
<v Speaker 5>Ta Oscar Hernandez starts the party with a two run single.

43
00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:21.599
<v Speaker 2>Ta Oscar Hernandez has been tremendous over the last year

44
00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:24.599
<v Speaker 2>with runners in scoring position for the Dodgers, and he

45
00:02:24.719 --> 00:02:28.080
<v Speaker 2>delivered again a two out, two run single put the

46
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:31.639
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers up two nothing. That lead did not last long

47
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:34.960
<v Speaker 2>because in the fourth inning, Harvard Westlake's own and now

48
00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:38.680
<v Speaker 2>becoming a very big thorn in the Dodgers' side. Pete

49
00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:41.719
<v Speaker 2>Crow Armstrong hit a three run home run and the

50
00:02:41.759 --> 00:02:44.240
<v Speaker 2>Cubs took a three to two lead. In the top

51
00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:46.639
<v Speaker 2>of the fifth, the Dodgers tied it up Mookie Betts

52
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:50.000
<v Speaker 2>with an RBI double and then the next batter, who

53
00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:53.120
<v Speaker 2>was it? You guessed it, ta Oscar Hernandez, giving the

54
00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:53.719
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers the.

55
00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:57.240
<v Speaker 4>Lead, two out, two strike, two run single. In the

56
00:02:57.240 --> 00:02:59.439
<v Speaker 4>third inning, he gave the Dodgers a two to nothing lead.

57
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:03.840
<v Speaker 4>It's now tied at three. Here's the pitch. Swinging a

58
00:03:03.919 --> 00:03:07.120
<v Speaker 4>fly ball left field, hit well back toward the wall.

59
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:08.680
<v Speaker 3>It has gone.

60
00:03:10.039 --> 00:03:13.800
<v Speaker 5>Title tays off and the Dodgers jumped back in front.

61
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:19.800
<v Speaker 5>Six to the season for Tioscar Hernandez, a two run shot.

62
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.919
<v Speaker 5>He has driven in four of the Dodger runs today.

63
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:30.840
<v Speaker 2>Two run homer for Tioscar Hernandez a four RBI game,

64
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:33.560
<v Speaker 2>and that was our top tier play of the game,

65
00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:37.000
<v Speaker 2>brought to you by Arco Quality, top tier gas for less.

66
00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:40.039
<v Speaker 3>The Dodgers had a five to three lead at that point,

67
00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:41.199
<v Speaker 3>but it was short lived.

68
00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:44.039
<v Speaker 2>The bottom of the fifth inning, the Cubs took advantage

69
00:03:44.039 --> 00:03:46.879
<v Speaker 2>of a wild Jack Dryer, who walked the bases loaded

70
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:49.360
<v Speaker 2>with one out, then gave up a two run single

71
00:03:49.719 --> 00:03:53.000
<v Speaker 2>and a sacrifice fly. It was a learning lesson for

72
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:55.719
<v Speaker 2>young Jack, and the Cubs scored four runs in that

73
00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:58.719
<v Speaker 2>fifth inning and took a seven to five lead. The

74
00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:01.919
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers got it close, it came up short seven to six,

75
00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:04.960
<v Speaker 2>and that's as close as they would get. The Dodgers

76
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:08.000
<v Speaker 2>lose two out of five on the road trip, or

77
00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:10.159
<v Speaker 2>three out of five on the road trip. They get

78
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:13.360
<v Speaker 2>swept in a two game series in Chicago, but they

79
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:16.079
<v Speaker 2>are home against the Pirates of Marlins a homestand to

80
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:20.040
<v Speaker 2>get healthy and for more on tonight's marquee matchup, Let's

81
00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:22.839
<v Speaker 2>check in with Rick Monday and Steven Nelson for the

82
00:04:22.879 --> 00:04:23.480
<v Speaker 2>first time.

83
00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:26.480
<v Speaker 4>Guys, Thanks TV long toss from you to us down

84
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:28.800
<v Speaker 4>here in the front row of this booth, Rick Monday.

85
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:32.160
<v Speaker 4>But the Dodgers back home and gosh, I mean they

86
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:33.800
<v Speaker 4>have to be happy at least that's the way that

87
00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:36.920
<v Speaker 4>the baseball has been reflected this year. The Dodgers ten

88
00:04:36.959 --> 00:04:39.399
<v Speaker 4>and two here at Dodgers Stadium, and they're going off

89
00:04:39.439 --> 00:04:43.079
<v Speaker 4>another losing road trip. There's six and seven away from

90
00:04:43.160 --> 00:04:43.839
<v Speaker 4>LA this year.

91
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:46.199
<v Speaker 6>You know, I started to think about the road trip,

92
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:48.959
<v Speaker 6>just reflecting upon a little bit earlier today. They got

93
00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:52.040
<v Speaker 6>some guys that did not have particularly good trips, and

94
00:04:52.040 --> 00:04:54.240
<v Speaker 6>really over the last seven games, if you're looking at it,

95
00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:57.240
<v Speaker 6>a lot of guys are down in the average. It

96
00:04:57.360 --> 00:04:59.839
<v Speaker 6>is good to get home when you've had success, but

97
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:03.399
<v Speaker 6>you get that success by playing better baseball than what

98
00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:05.439
<v Speaker 6>they played on the just completed road trip. And if

99
00:05:05.439 --> 00:05:08.000
<v Speaker 6>we look at it, it's been expanded even before they

100
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:10.800
<v Speaker 6>went on that trip. I'm talking about cutoffs and relays.

101
00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:15.839
<v Speaker 6>We didn't see that base running obviously, timely hits their opportunities. Yes,

102
00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:19.360
<v Speaker 6>the Dodgers have had some injuries in their bullpen and

103
00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:22.360
<v Speaker 6>also in the starting rotation, but this is a ball

104
00:05:22.399 --> 00:05:26.040
<v Speaker 6>club that can play better, will play better, and no

105
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:28.240
<v Speaker 6>better time to do it tonight, because I tell you what,

106
00:05:28.439 --> 00:05:31.639
<v Speaker 6>from both sides of the field, runs should be at

107
00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:33.680
<v Speaker 6>a premium with this pitching matchup.

108
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:36.360
<v Speaker 4>Which you led me perfectly into my next point mode,

109
00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:39.480
<v Speaker 4>This is the one that is being circled all around

110
00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:41.920
<v Speaker 4>the major leagues. You know, m WIB network scrambling to

111
00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:44.680
<v Speaker 4>add this to their showcase schedule as a national game

112
00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:47.360
<v Speaker 4>outside of course the LA and Pittsburgh markets. That is

113
00:05:47.439 --> 00:05:49.800
<v Speaker 4>because of what we have on the Mountain night, Yoshinobu

114
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:54.839
<v Speaker 4>Yamamoto against Paul Skeins. Yamamoto has continued his ascent into

115
00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:57.519
<v Speaker 4>a status in the major leagues, and Paul Skeins is

116
00:05:57.560 --> 00:06:00.399
<v Speaker 4>simply a phenomenon. I mean, it wasn't that long ago

117
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:03.040
<v Speaker 4>he was pitching LSU to a College World Series championship,

118
00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:06.399
<v Speaker 4>and now many around the game are anointing him as

119
00:06:06.399 --> 00:06:10.279
<v Speaker 4>the best pitcher in baseball already despite his inexperience. So

120
00:06:10.279 --> 00:06:11.480
<v Speaker 4>that's what we get to watch tonight.

121
00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:13.759
<v Speaker 6>Well, we'll talk about him a whole lot, but there's

122
00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:15.639
<v Speaker 6>a lot to talk about too. In the same way

123
00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:17.800
<v Speaker 6>with the Yama Moto, don't get lost in the shuffle.

124
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:20.279
<v Speaker 6>I mean, and for Yama Moto in particular against left

125
00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:23.720
<v Speaker 6>handed batters, just a one thirty seven average. But again

126
00:06:23.759 --> 00:06:25.519
<v Speaker 6>I go back to what the Dodgers are looking at.

127
00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:28.439
<v Speaker 6>They need to get it in gear with again, get

128
00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:31.959
<v Speaker 6>back to better approaches, and you need that tonight against

129
00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:35.360
<v Speaker 6>the power pitcher that also can throw the slider. That

130
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:39.199
<v Speaker 6>slider can be devastating. So the Dodgers have some adjustments

131
00:06:39.199 --> 00:06:42.160
<v Speaker 6>to make, including the way that they played defense or

132
00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:44.879
<v Speaker 6>lack thereof on the recently completed road trip.

133
00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:47.199
<v Speaker 4>Skeens is an Orange County kid. He actually grew up

134
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:49.560
<v Speaker 4>an Angel fan and grew up a fan of Shohey

135
00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:53.160
<v Speaker 4>Otani is called Otani an inspiration in many ways. They

136
00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:56.360
<v Speaker 4>went at it last year. Otani struck out the first

137
00:06:56.399 --> 00:07:00.759
<v Speaker 4>time and then took Skeen's dead Central in Pittsburgh Park.

138
00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:03.399
<v Speaker 4>So we'll get another square face off of phenoms tonight

139
00:07:03.639 --> 00:07:06.079
<v Speaker 4>here at Dodgers Stadium'm gonna dive more into show Hey

140
00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:09.639
<v Speaker 4>Otani's recent struggles DV next time we chat with you.

141
00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:11.560
<v Speaker 3>All right, Thanks, guys.

142

152
00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:42.519
<v Speaker 2>how it goes tonight here against Paul s Keenes and

00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:45.639
<v Speaker 2>the Pirates. First pitch coming up at seven to ten

154
00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:49.040
<v Speaker 2>from Dodgers Stadium. I'm David Vasse, and this is the

157
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:01.000
<v Speaker 3>Y'all on the isial home of.

158
00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:03.199
<v Speaker 1>La Dodgers Baseball.

159
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:10.480
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers and Pirates, Yamamoto versus Schemes. We're getting set for

160
00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:13.519
<v Speaker 2>first pitch at Dodgers Stadium at sevent ten.

161
00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:17.079
<v Speaker 1>This is the Otani.

162
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:19.800
<v Speaker 3>Three wide.

163
00:08:21.279 --> 00:08:21.639
<v Speaker 7>All right.

164
00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:24.040
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's been a struggle of late for Otani, who

165
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:26.879
<v Speaker 2>has just won for his last eleven since coming off

166
00:08:26.920 --> 00:08:27.959
<v Speaker 2>the paternity list.

167
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:29.120
<v Speaker 3>On Wednesday.

168
00:08:29.279 --> 00:08:31.639
<v Speaker 2>He only had a single in the third inning. He

169
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:34.840
<v Speaker 2>had a golden opportunity with two runners on, but popped

170
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:37.799
<v Speaker 2>up in the infield, like I mentioned, one for eleven

171
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:41.679
<v Speaker 2>with five strikeouts. Dave Roberts has said, Otani just seems

172
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:44.480
<v Speaker 2>over anxious. We'll see how I ferris against one of

173
00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:47.840
<v Speaker 2>the best in baseball and Paul schemes. But Otani is

174
00:08:47.879 --> 00:08:49.960
<v Speaker 2>one of the best as well. You gotta respect that.

175
00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:55.080
<v Speaker 1>This is Kirston's corner with Kirston Watson.

176

181
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:15.840
<v Speaker 2>The Dodgers are back in LA and what an exciting

182
00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:19.440
<v Speaker 2>day here at Dodgers Stadium. Paul Skeins against Yama Moto.

183
00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:21.480
<v Speaker 2>You got to be excited too, you got a front

184
00:09:21.559 --> 00:09:22.039
<v Speaker 2>row seat.

185
00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:25.039
<v Speaker 8>I am honestly thrilled. I think first, Yoshinovo has been

186
00:09:25.080 --> 00:09:27.639
<v Speaker 8>having the best season thus far, and so to be

187
00:09:27.679 --> 00:09:30.399
<v Speaker 8>able to see him go toe to toe with Paul Skeins,

188
00:09:30.399 --> 00:09:32.639
<v Speaker 8>who's also been off to a fantastic start coming off

189
00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:34.679
<v Speaker 8>of winning Rookie of the Year for the National League.

190
00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:37.200
<v Speaker 8>So for these two guys to be going against each

191
00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:39.799
<v Speaker 8>other for the conversation of the cy Young for the

192
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:42.840
<v Speaker 8>National League. What are we in April still? But just

193
00:09:42.840 --> 00:09:45.759
<v Speaker 8>that we're having this conversation right now and seeing this matchup,

194
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:47.960
<v Speaker 8>I think it's gonna be awesome. Get your popcorn ready

195
00:09:47.960 --> 00:09:48.759
<v Speaker 8>and see what happens.

196
00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:51.639
<v Speaker 3>I like that. I like that you're back in LA.

197
00:09:51.720 --> 00:09:53.120
<v Speaker 3>How did you enjoy the road trip?

198
00:09:53.799 --> 00:09:56.320
<v Speaker 8>Well, I think I had enjoined Texas more than Chicago.

199
00:09:56.440 --> 00:09:58.519
<v Speaker 8>But I also feel like we brought Chicago weather with

200
00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:00.759
<v Speaker 8>us back to LA. It's a bit cloudy here. It

201
00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:03.440
<v Speaker 8>might be a little bit, might be a little rainy tomorrow.

202
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:07.360
<v Speaker 8>But anytime we're back here at Dodger Stadium, you can

203
00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:10.320
<v Speaker 8>just feel the energy here. Tonight should be interesting. It's

204
00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:13.000
<v Speaker 8>date night here at Dodger Stadium. Yes, I hope you

205
00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:14.759
<v Speaker 8>told your wife to come because it's date night.

206
00:10:14.960 --> 00:10:16.200
<v Speaker 3>He actually is coming tonight.

207
00:10:16.320 --> 00:10:19.600
<v Speaker 8>Just look at that you're on it. Then, Wanderado, who

208
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:21.679
<v Speaker 8>is on the PR side for the Dodgers, tried to

209
00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:24.600
<v Speaker 8>convince me though it's for singles for people to meet

210
00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:25.200
<v Speaker 8>as if.

211
00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:25.919
<v Speaker 3>I guess, I don't know.

212
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:28.559
<v Speaker 8>Maybe Dodger Stadium dating show, which maybe we could pitch,

213
00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:31.919
<v Speaker 8>could be awesome, but it's actually not. It is just

214
00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:34.240
<v Speaker 8>couples will be here. We'll see what happens, but it

215
00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:35.559
<v Speaker 8>should be a fun one for the dates.

216
00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:38.159
<v Speaker 3>What are the Dodgers given away for that date night?

217
00:10:38.240 --> 00:10:38.440
<v Speaker 9>Do you?

218
00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:40.080
<v Speaker 3>What would you give away? Well?

219
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:42.600
<v Speaker 8>I think it's a blanket, which is actually perfect for tonight.

220
00:10:42.720 --> 00:10:44.679
<v Speaker 8>What would I give away for date night?

221
00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:47.879
<v Speaker 3>A Blanket's nice? That's nice touch.

222
00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:51.639
<v Speaker 8>I think that's like perfect. To be honest, I don't know.

223
00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:53.799
<v Speaker 8>I we'll have to think about that. Maybe a drink coupon.

224
00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:55.679
<v Speaker 8>That's what I think I would give away.

225
00:10:55.840 --> 00:10:56.360
<v Speaker 3>I like that.

226
00:10:56.519 --> 00:10:56.960
<v Speaker 7>I like that.

227
00:10:57.000 --> 00:10:59.799
<v Speaker 3>Would you ever host a date night at Dodger Stadium?

228
00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:02.639
<v Speaker 8>Absolutely, but I think I should host singles and then

229
00:11:02.639 --> 00:11:05.279
<v Speaker 8>they can meet each other like a mixer, a Dodger

230
00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:06.279
<v Speaker 8>Stadium mixer.

231
00:11:06.919 --> 00:11:09.039
<v Speaker 3>I should host that centerfield plaza.

232
00:11:09.399 --> 00:11:13.360
<v Speaker 8>Absolutely yes. It'll be like the Bachelor style, and then

233
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:14.919
<v Speaker 8>it would have even cooler if we had some of

234
00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:17.039
<v Speaker 8>the guys like they get to like vote on like

235
00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:19.000
<v Speaker 8>the relationship, I'd be like, no, we don't know if

236
00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:20.879
<v Speaker 8>we like him, yeah, he can stay like that would

237
00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:22.840
<v Speaker 8>be I think this would be a great show. We

238
00:11:22.840 --> 00:11:23.879
<v Speaker 8>should probably pitch this.

239
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:26.759
<v Speaker 3>I think it sounds better than the hat Shuffle.

240
00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:29.679
<v Speaker 8>I think it does you'll see me go all of

241
00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:31.320
<v Speaker 8>a sudden for an ending. I'll just go up there

242
00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:34.080
<v Speaker 8>and we can have like I don't know, I had

243
00:11:34.120 --> 00:11:36.720
<v Speaker 8>to think about the vision more. But I'm seeing singles

244
00:11:36.759 --> 00:11:38.960
<v Speaker 8>and bringing people together at Dodger Stadium.

245
00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:39.559
<v Speaker 7>Love it.

246
00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:42.559
<v Speaker 3>We just brought people together right now here there it is.

247
00:11:43.480 --> 00:11:45.799
<v Speaker 3>Thanks Kirsten. We'll see on Sports in La tonight.

248
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:46.440
<v Speaker 8>Thank you.

249
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:50.879
<v Speaker 2>As always should be fun. Dodgers pirates, Paul Skens and

250
00:11:51.039 --> 00:11:55.039
<v Speaker 2>Yamamoto and Austin Barnes loves that idea. Maybe he'll bring

251
00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:56.399
<v Speaker 2>his wife to date night.

252
00:11:56.720 --> 00:11:57.440

<v Speaker 2>This Dodger Report presented by UCLA Healthy, official medical partner

269
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:02.279
<v Speaker 2>of the Los Angeles dodg Well. Will Smith's back in

270
00:13:02.360 --> 00:13:05.799
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers starting lineup after kind of twisting his left

271
00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:10.320
<v Speaker 2>wrist awkwardly in the sixth inning of Tuesday night's game.

272
00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:12.679
<v Speaker 3>On a play at the play tagging out ian Halp.

273
00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:16.200
<v Speaker 2>Will told me yesterday was the day that he knew

274
00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:18.919
<v Speaker 2>he could be in the lineup today. The Dodgers played

275
00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:22.000
<v Speaker 2>it smart, giving him Wednesday off with the off day yesterday.

276
00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:24.799
<v Speaker 2>It worked out well, and he said, actually, the thing

277
00:13:24.840 --> 00:13:25.639
<v Speaker 2>that hurt him the.

278
00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:28.639
<v Speaker 3>Most was just trying to wash his right arm.

279
00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:31.879
<v Speaker 2>Nothing else really hurt, but that was the one movement

280
00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:34.879
<v Speaker 2>that affected him. Also had a chance to talk to

281
00:13:34.919 --> 00:13:37.679
<v Speaker 2>Blake Snell. We'll get into it more, but the Dodgers

282
00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:40.240
<v Speaker 2>are shutting down his throwing program and are going to

283
00:13:40.279 --> 00:13:43.519
<v Speaker 2>give him a quarter zone injection hoping to free up

284
00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:46.519
<v Speaker 2>that left shoulder. I got also good news about Tony

285
00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:47.600
<v Speaker 2>Gonsolin coming up.

286
00:13:47.559 --> 00:13:48.399
<v Speaker 3>Later as well.

287
00:13:48.679 --> 00:13:53.840
<v Speaker 2>But now let's check in with the Dodger manager, Dave Roberts.

288
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:57.480
<v Speaker 7>Questions for day, Dave, can you just describe Dave? Can

289
00:13:57.519 --> 00:13:59.120
<v Speaker 7>you talk about the pressure.

290
00:13:59.559 --> 00:14:05.200
<v Speaker 10>In the dugouts with Dave Robberts, Well, I think what

291
00:14:05.320 --> 00:14:09.960
<v Speaker 10>excites me is there are two of the better pitchers

292
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:14.960
<v Speaker 10>in the big leagues, so that matchup alone is exciting.

293
00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:20.080
<v Speaker 10>I think with Yoshinobu, it's something where he's mindful of

294
00:14:20.120 --> 00:14:24.679
<v Speaker 10>getting better each time out, but there's different gears that

295
00:14:24.799 --> 00:14:29.279
<v Speaker 10>he's shown to kind of turn to or go to

296
00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:33.879
<v Speaker 10>on a specific outing, and so it'll be interesting to see,

297
00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:36.919
<v Speaker 10>you know, what he has in store for us tonight.

298
00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:41.320
<v Speaker 2>I actually talked to a hero, Yamamoto's right hand man,

299
00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:44.759
<v Speaker 2>his interpreter, and he told me that Yamamoto's not even

300
00:14:44.799 --> 00:14:46.159
<v Speaker 2>thinking about Paul Skeins.

301
00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:47.960
<v Speaker 3>He just has that much confidence.

302
00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:52.080
<v Speaker 2>When we continue a Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, we'll

303
00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:55.120
<v Speaker 2>get to our Dodger Insiders segment, leading you up to

304

319
00:15:51.679 --> 00:15:52.039
<v Speaker 2>all right.

320
00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:54.480
<v Speaker 3>Dave Roberts talk to the media about blake Snell.

321
00:15:54.919 --> 00:15:59.159
<v Speaker 2>He said, officially, they're going to shut Snail's throwing program.

322
00:15:58.799 --> 00:15:59.519
<v Speaker 3>Down for now.

323
00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:02.879
<v Speaker 2>But I had a chance to talk to Blakesnell earlier today.

324
00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:06.159
<v Speaker 2>He is not concerned about this. He had an MRI

325
00:16:06.399 --> 00:16:10.759
<v Speaker 2>taken yesterday. It showed no more structural damage, if anything,

326
00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:13.440
<v Speaker 2>than it showed the first time when he went on

327
00:16:13.480 --> 00:16:17.639
<v Speaker 2>the injured list. So the MRI came back clean. He

328
00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:20.440
<v Speaker 2>just has tightness in his shoulder and pitched with it

329
00:16:20.480 --> 00:16:22.519
<v Speaker 2>for the first couple of weeks of spring training and

330
00:16:22.600 --> 00:16:26.279
<v Speaker 2>into the first two starts of the regular season. A

331
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:30.320
<v Speaker 2>quarter zone injection is probably going to free that shoulder up,

332
00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:33.039
<v Speaker 2>get rid of the inflammation, and then he'll be off

333
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:35.559
<v Speaker 2>and running with The Dodgers don't want to happen with

334
00:16:35.639 --> 00:16:38.440
<v Speaker 2>blake Snell is for him to come back and then

335
00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:41.279
<v Speaker 2>have to return on the il because they rushed it

336
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:43.000
<v Speaker 2>or he's trying to force it.

337
00:16:43.320 --> 00:16:44.879
<v Speaker 3>That's not what's happening here.

338
00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:49.679
<v Speaker 2>The Giants forced Blakesnell last year because of necessity. This year,

339
00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:52.559
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers have the luxury and understand the big picture

340
00:16:53.000 --> 00:16:53.879
<v Speaker 2>of October.

341
00:16:54.159 --> 00:16:55.639
<v Speaker 3>So Blake'snell going to.

342
00:16:55.559 --> 00:16:58.559
<v Speaker 2>Get a quarter zone injection in that left shoulder when

343
00:16:58.600 --> 00:17:01.879
<v Speaker 2>he returns. There will be no looking back for the

<v Speaker 1>Bitch Magical presented by Hawvey Hot Dogs.

365
00:18:17.759 --> 00:18:19.960
<v Speaker 3>Well, the man standing right behind me right now.

366
00:18:20.119 --> 00:18:25.400
<v Speaker 2>April twenty fifth, nineteen seventy six, Dodgers hosting the Chicago

367
00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:28.319
<v Speaker 2>Cubs and number seven was playing center field.

368
00:18:28.599 --> 00:18:29.799
<v Speaker 3>His name was Rick Monday.

369
00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:33.720
<v Speaker 2>During the game, two protesters ran onto the field and

370
00:18:33.839 --> 00:18:38.200
<v Speaker 2>attempted to set flyer to the American flag. Rick Monday,

371
00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:41.640
<v Speaker 2>then playing for the Cubs, ran over from his position

372
00:18:41.720 --> 00:18:44.720
<v Speaker 2>in center field and snatched the flag before it could

373
00:18:44.720 --> 00:18:46.000
<v Speaker 2>be lit on fire.

374
00:18:48.440 --> 00:18:51.559
<v Speaker 9>I'm not sure what he's doing out there. It looks

375
00:18:51.599 --> 00:18:53.240
<v Speaker 9>like he's gonna burn a flag.

376
00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:55.119
<v Speaker 11>And Rick Monday runs.

377
00:18:54.839 --> 00:18:58.640
<v Speaker 9>Then takes it away from him. And on Monday, I

378
00:18:58.720 --> 00:19:01.480
<v Speaker 9>think a guy was gonna set fire to the American flague.

379
00:19:01.480 --> 00:19:02.519
<v Speaker 9>Can you imagine that?

380
00:19:03.559 --> 00:19:05.880
<v Speaker 11>Well, they got to lose him in Ahri and.

381
00:19:05.920 --> 00:19:09.359
<v Speaker 9>Monday when he realized what he was gonna do, Ray

382
00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:14.319
<v Speaker 9>schober And took the flag away from him. For this guy,

383
00:19:14.359 --> 00:19:17.279
<v Speaker 9>I was gonna try and perform the indignity of shutting

384
00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:20.640
<v Speaker 9>fire to the American flag. And Rick, we'll get an

385
00:19:20.640 --> 00:19:22.519
<v Speaker 9>ovation and properly show.

386
00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:26.160

425
00:21:34.359 --> 00:21:38.000
<v Speaker 1>and World Series champion Dodger Rick Monday.

426
00:21:38.799 --> 00:21:42.559
<v Speaker 2>Forty nine years ago, our very own Rick Monday made

427
00:21:42.680 --> 00:21:46.319
<v Speaker 2>a great play in center field saving the American flag

428
00:21:46.359 --> 00:21:49.920
<v Speaker 2>while play for the Chicago Cubs. And I think you

429
00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:52.599
<v Speaker 2>already knew it was the anniversary, but people don't have

430
00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:53.359
<v Speaker 2>to remind you.

431
00:21:54.160 --> 00:21:59.640
<v Speaker 6>Well, it's something I reflect upon. Yeah, people reminded me

432
00:21:59.680 --> 00:22:01.960
<v Speaker 6>of it to morning, especially those on the East coast

433
00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:04.839
<v Speaker 6>realizing that hey, it's three hours earlier on the West coast.

434
00:22:05.279 --> 00:22:07.559
<v Speaker 6>But it's something, David, that it is right there. Someone

435
00:22:07.599 --> 00:22:09.759
<v Speaker 6>asked me a long time ago. He said, you know,

436
00:22:09.759 --> 00:22:11.680
<v Speaker 6>you were fortunate to play nineteen years at the Big

437
00:22:11.759 --> 00:22:14.559
<v Speaker 6>league level and playing World Series in a World Championship

438
00:22:14.599 --> 00:22:18.279
<v Speaker 6>in eighty one, and they asked me and said, well,

439
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:20.759
<v Speaker 6>does it bother you that maybe you're going to be

440
00:22:20.759 --> 00:22:24.440
<v Speaker 6>better known for taking the flag away from two guys?

441
00:22:24.440 --> 00:22:26.880
<v Speaker 7>And I said, well, if that's the case, it's not bad.

442
00:22:27.240 --> 00:22:29.799
<v Speaker 6>I've never been one about wondering how people are going

443
00:22:29.880 --> 00:22:32.559
<v Speaker 6>to remember me. I hope it's in a nice way

444
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:35.759
<v Speaker 6>that he was a nice guy, But yeah, it's been

445
00:22:35.799 --> 00:22:37.880
<v Speaker 6>associated with the flag against it and very proud of

446
00:22:37.880 --> 00:22:39.759
<v Speaker 6>the fact that I was close enough to do something

447
00:22:39.799 --> 00:22:42.440
<v Speaker 6>about it, and having been in the military while I

448
00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:46.440
<v Speaker 6>was playing in Major League Baseball with the Marine Corps Reserves.

449
00:22:46.920 --> 00:22:49.319
<v Speaker 7>It meant maybe a little bit more to me at.

450
00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:53.480
<v Speaker 6>That particular moment, and especially in the scene set nineteen

451
00:22:53.559 --> 00:22:56.799
<v Speaker 6>seventy six. You know, things have changed a lot around

452
00:22:56.799 --> 00:22:59.880
<v Speaker 6>the world since that particular time, But you know, that flag.

453
00:23:00.000 --> 00:23:02.920
<v Speaker 6>I've said this before and I'll say it again. That

454
00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:06.960
<v Speaker 6>flag is pieces of cloth, but it represents the rights

455
00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:10.119
<v Speaker 6>and freedoms that all of us have, at least the

456
00:23:10.200 --> 00:23:13.519
<v Speaker 6>opportunity to extend those rights and freedom. Now, what we

457
00:23:13.640 --> 00:23:16.519
<v Speaker 6>do with those rights and freedoms is us is up

458
00:23:16.559 --> 00:23:20.039
<v Speaker 6>to us individually. And collectively, but it represents a lot

459
00:23:20.039 --> 00:23:22.640
<v Speaker 6>of people that have given life and limb to make

460
00:23:22.680 --> 00:23:24.240
<v Speaker 6>sure that we can live in a free world.

461
00:23:24.480 --> 00:23:27.079
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad you brought that up because many may not

462
00:23:27.160 --> 00:23:29.839
<v Speaker 2>be aware of the fact that you didn't just frame

463
00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:32.799
<v Speaker 2>that American flag. You've used it to help our veterans.

464
00:23:32.920 --> 00:23:35.160
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, my wife, BARBARIAI and I have been able to

465
00:23:35.200 --> 00:23:38.400
<v Speaker 6>take that. In fact, she took it across country with

466
00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:42.519
<v Speaker 6>the Patriotard Writers was the organization that she came out

467
00:23:42.519 --> 00:23:45.359
<v Speaker 6>with from our home of Duro Beach, Florida, and brought

468
00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:48.279
<v Speaker 6>it to Dodger Stadium many many years ago when fourteen states,

469
00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:52.279
<v Speaker 6>fourteen days, stopped off at every military installation that they could,

470
00:23:52.640 --> 00:23:56.759
<v Speaker 6>military hospitals on top of it, and were escorted and

471
00:23:56.839 --> 00:23:59.960
<v Speaker 6>at every state line that they had a handoff ceremony

472
00:24:00.160 --> 00:24:03.680
<v Speaker 6>to the next group of Patriot Guard Writers that would

473
00:24:03.720 --> 00:24:07.200
<v Speaker 6>then transfer it to Barbarleywood with them, she wrote on motorcycles.

474
00:24:07.559 --> 00:24:10.160
<v Speaker 6>You know our daughter went as well. It was a

475
00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:14.920
<v Speaker 6>great experience and it's something. Then again, the lifespan of

476
00:24:14.960 --> 00:24:17.599
<v Speaker 6>that flag, we still are able to use it here

477
00:24:17.599 --> 00:24:21.079
<v Speaker 6>and there to they raise some money for some wonderful

478
00:24:21.160 --> 00:24:22.319
<v Speaker 6>charities From time to time.

479
00:24:22.599 --> 00:24:25.559
<v Speaker 2>We know what your life's been like, you know, since

480
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:28.519
<v Speaker 2>the nineties, But what was it like in the immediate

481
00:24:28.599 --> 00:24:32.200
<v Speaker 2>aftermath after saving the flag in nineteen seventy six and

482
00:24:32.279 --> 00:24:34.480
<v Speaker 2>when you came to the Dodgers in seventy seven.

483
00:24:34.680 --> 00:24:37.720
<v Speaker 6>I'll reflect back to that Sunday afternoon when it took

484
00:24:37.799 --> 00:24:40.680
<v Speaker 6>place in the fourth ending of a game here at

485
00:24:40.680 --> 00:24:45.480
<v Speaker 6>Dodger Study, and there were people in the visiting locker room.

486
00:24:45.559 --> 00:24:49.039
<v Speaker 6>After the game. Obviously, they confiscated the flag, took that

487
00:24:49.160 --> 00:24:49.759
<v Speaker 6>for evidence.

488
00:24:50.200 --> 00:24:52.359
<v Speaker 7>The two people went through the court.

489
00:24:52.400 --> 00:24:55.240
<v Speaker 6>They were fined eighty dollars a piece on trespass and

490
00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:57.759
<v Speaker 6>they were put on two year probation. And then a

491
00:24:57.759 --> 00:25:00.920
<v Speaker 6>few months later, Ol Campaigns the Dog came into Chicago

492
00:25:01.119 --> 00:25:03.240
<v Speaker 6>presented me of that flag. I'd asked for it that day,

493
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:06.680
<v Speaker 6>but after the game, I thought, well, it was another event.

494
00:25:06.920 --> 00:25:07.400
<v Speaker 7>There was an.

495
00:25:07.319 --> 00:25:11.039
<v Speaker 6>Interruption in the game, and I reacted with something that

496
00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:13.640
<v Speaker 6>I thought was the right thing to do. I thought

497
00:25:13.640 --> 00:25:16.000
<v Speaker 6>it was the right thing in nineteen seventy six. Here

498
00:25:16.039 --> 00:25:18.279
<v Speaker 6>we are in twenty twenty five. I still think it

499
00:25:18.359 --> 00:25:20.319
<v Speaker 6>was the right thing to do. I was angered by

500
00:25:20.359 --> 00:25:23.279
<v Speaker 6>it also because they came on the field disrupted the game.

501
00:25:23.519 --> 00:25:26.200
<v Speaker 6>But that was kind of a minor incident. But yet

502
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:30.200
<v Speaker 6>different time, different plays. Had no idea that this focus

503
00:25:30.319 --> 00:25:31.839
<v Speaker 6>was going to blow up on me, and at times

504
00:25:31.880 --> 00:25:36.039
<v Speaker 6>has been unsettling to me because I didn't do anything

505
00:25:36.559 --> 00:25:38.480
<v Speaker 6>that my friends would not have done had they been

506
00:25:38.480 --> 00:25:40.599
<v Speaker 6>in the same geographical location as I was.

507
00:25:40.960 --> 00:25:44.279
<v Speaker 2>What's the like meeting presidents over the years, because I'm

508
00:25:44.319 --> 00:25:46.680
<v Speaker 2>sure they want to shake your hand for what you did.

509
00:25:46.799 --> 00:25:50.279
<v Speaker 6>You know what it is when we received an invitation,

510
00:25:51.039 --> 00:25:55.759
<v Speaker 6>In fact, I called Parbarly from this booth a number

511
00:25:55.799 --> 00:25:59.079
<v Speaker 6>of years ago and I said, hey, maybe all star break,

512
00:25:59.480 --> 00:26:02.160
<v Speaker 6>let's go and have dinner. Let's fly out of town,

513
00:26:02.200 --> 00:26:03.680
<v Speaker 6>go somewhere. And says, yeah, where do you want to go?

514
00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:05.319
<v Speaker 6>I said, why don't we go to our nation's capital.

515
00:26:05.359 --> 00:26:08.480
<v Speaker 6>I said, We've actually been invited to have dinner with

516
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:11.960
<v Speaker 6>the president. She's the president of what I said, our country.

517
00:26:12.200 --> 00:26:16.240
<v Speaker 6>So and when President Bush, it was Junior that did

518
00:26:16.279 --> 00:26:19.240
<v Speaker 6>ask will you bring the flag with you on top

519
00:26:19.319 --> 00:26:22.279
<v Speaker 6>of it? When the President asked for that, you have

520
00:26:22.359 --> 00:26:23.359
<v Speaker 6>no idea how many.

521
00:26:23.240 --> 00:26:24.279
<v Speaker 7>People it touches.

522
00:26:24.759 --> 00:26:28.200
<v Speaker 6>And from time to time, I mean there have been

523
00:26:28.240 --> 00:26:33.000
<v Speaker 6>instances when we have visited military hospitals and people would

524
00:26:33.000 --> 00:26:34.640
<v Speaker 6>ask do you have the flag with you?

525
00:26:34.759 --> 00:26:37.839
<v Speaker 7>Yes? Can we have a picture taken with it? Yes?

526
00:26:38.440 --> 00:26:40.240
<v Speaker 7>And one gentleman, very very quickly.

527
00:26:41.359 --> 00:26:44.319
<v Speaker 6>There was a young lieutenant at Walter Reed Army Medical

528
00:26:44.359 --> 00:26:48.440
<v Speaker 6>Center years ago that had just arrived at Walter Reed

529
00:26:48.920 --> 00:26:51.480
<v Speaker 6>maybe two days before we got there when biz wounds.

530
00:26:51.880 --> 00:26:54.440
<v Speaker 6>He asked about the flag. His wife was there and

531
00:26:54.480 --> 00:26:56.240
<v Speaker 6>asked if he could have a picture with us, and

532
00:26:56.599 --> 00:26:59.240
<v Speaker 6>we took the photo with the flag, and he said,

533
00:26:59.240 --> 00:27:01.559
<v Speaker 6>all of a sudden to the doctors, says please take

534
00:27:01.599 --> 00:27:04.920
<v Speaker 6>the flag. And he was beginning to bleed at the time.

535
00:27:05.440 --> 00:27:08.400
<v Speaker 6>And I said, Lieutenant's okay. He says, no, I will

536
00:27:08.440 --> 00:27:11.519
<v Speaker 6>not bleed on the flag, but I will die representing

537
00:27:11.519 --> 00:27:14.440
<v Speaker 6>the rights and freedoms that we have as a result.

538
00:27:14.599 --> 00:27:17.160
<v Speaker 2>That's powerful stuff, Rick, thanks a lot for sharing that,

539
00:27:17.279 --> 00:27:18.519
<v Speaker 2>and happy anniversary.

540
00:27:18.880 --> 00:27:19.880
<v Speaker 3>You made a great play.

541
00:27:20.440 --> 00:27:24.640
<v Speaker 6>Well, we've got a great country right here, and we've

542
00:27:24.680 --> 00:27:26.799
<v Speaker 6>got to take charge of it and make sure it

543
00:27:26.839 --> 00:27:28.559
<v Speaker 6>continues on it and gets even better.

544
00:27:29.039 --> 00:27:32.640
<v Speaker 2>No doubt the Dodgers will replay that play of the game.

545
00:27:32.759 --> 00:27:36.440
<v Speaker 2>April twenty fifth, nineteen seventy six during tonight's ballgame.

546
00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:37.839
<v Speaker 3>What's your game plan?

547
00:27:37.960 --> 00:27:41.680
<v Speaker 2>How about starting your future at a California community college.

548
00:27:41.720 --> 00:27:44.920
<v Speaker 2>Financial aid is available to help with tuition, books, and

549
00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:47.920
<v Speaker 2>sometimes even the rent. It's time to take the next

550
00:27:47.920 --> 00:27:50.799
<v Speaker 2>big step. Classes can fail quickly, so en roll today

551
00:27:50.839 --> 00:27:52.880
<v Speaker 2>and I can go to college dot com.

552

<v Speaker 2>Tyler Glass now will take the mound. Thanks a lot

<v Speaker 2>for the time, appreciate it.

584
00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:34.279
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, thanks for having me, dude.

585
00:29:34.400 --> 00:29:36.319
<v Speaker 3>I know you're a big baseball fan.

586
00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:39.519
<v Speaker 2>So on a night like tonight Skiens and Yamamoto, what's

587
00:29:39.559 --> 00:29:42.119
<v Speaker 2>it like for you and for guys that really love

588
00:29:42.160 --> 00:29:42.519
<v Speaker 2>the game.

589
00:29:43.160 --> 00:29:45.400
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, it's awesome. I'm sure everyone will be watching today.

590
00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:47.319
<v Speaker 11>I think if you're a fan of your good baseball,

591
00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:51.119
<v Speaker 11>good pitching, especially tonight is the night you tune in

592
00:29:51.160 --> 00:29:51.559
<v Speaker 11>and watch.

593
00:29:51.880 --> 00:29:53.759
<v Speaker 2>I feel like guys get ask this all the time,

594
00:29:53.799 --> 00:29:56.079
<v Speaker 2>but it's so cliche. What does it mean to go

595
00:29:56.119 --> 00:29:58.599
<v Speaker 2>against the other guy? But it seems like you guys

596
00:29:58.599 --> 00:30:00.000
<v Speaker 2>don't even view it that way.

597
00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:02.319
<v Speaker 11>Yeah. I think a lot of times pitching is such

598
00:30:02.359 --> 00:30:04.319
<v Speaker 11>an individual, like you got to care or like we're

599
00:30:04.400 --> 00:30:06.519
<v Speaker 11>kind of worry about what you're doing on the mound

600
00:30:06.559 --> 00:30:08.039
<v Speaker 11>or like how to execute pitches and game plan and

601
00:30:08.079 --> 00:30:10.240
<v Speaker 11>everything like that. Like you're not really, at least for

602
00:30:10.279 --> 00:30:12.119
<v Speaker 11>me anyway, I'm not really concerned with what like the

603
00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:14.680
<v Speaker 11>other starter is doing. You know, you kind of like

604
00:30:14.799 --> 00:30:16.599
<v Speaker 11>take care of business, do what you gotta do, and

605
00:30:16.640 --> 00:30:18.279
<v Speaker 11>then when you go out there and put up some zeros,

606
00:30:18.279 --> 00:30:20.359
<v Speaker 11>hopefull your team, your team wins.

607
00:30:20.720 --> 00:30:23.079
<v Speaker 2>Is it different now because you spend most of your

608
00:30:23.119 --> 00:30:25.559
<v Speaker 2>career in the American League, but when pitchers could hit

609
00:30:25.599 --> 00:30:28.240
<v Speaker 2>in the National League you don't even see each other.

610
00:30:29.240 --> 00:30:31.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah exactly. Yeah, I mean, like, yeah, you really don't.

611
00:30:31.720 --> 00:30:32.880
<v Speaker 11>I think it's a good point. Maybe it was a

612
00:30:32.880 --> 00:30:34.640
<v Speaker 11>little bit more of a thing in the I now,

613
00:30:34.720 --> 00:30:37.119
<v Speaker 11>like always facing pitchers and kind of having that like

614
00:30:37.319 --> 00:30:39.079
<v Speaker 11>not really a free out, but sort of a free

615
00:30:39.079 --> 00:30:41.599
<v Speaker 11>out type of thing. So that was always kind of

616
00:30:41.599 --> 00:30:44.119
<v Speaker 11>a weird situation. Hitting was always fun too, But yeah,

617
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:45.400
<v Speaker 11>maybe that's that's the difference.

618
00:30:45.599 --> 00:30:47.799
<v Speaker 3>I know, we hear about Paul Schemes a lot. You

619
00:30:47.880 --> 00:30:49.759
<v Speaker 3>got to worry about your own business. How much have

620
00:30:49.839 --> 00:30:51.359
<v Speaker 3>you seen him pitch? I haven't.

621
00:30:51.359 --> 00:30:53.279
<v Speaker 11>I haven't seen him pitch it all this year, so

622
00:30:53.440 --> 00:30:55.039
<v Speaker 11>to not it'll be cool just to watch him pitch,

623
00:30:55.079 --> 00:30:58.119
<v Speaker 11>And yeah, I didn't. I haven't really kept up or

624
00:30:58.119 --> 00:30:58.759
<v Speaker 11>anything like that.

625
00:30:58.920 --> 00:31:01.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, what about Yamamoto, There just seems to be a

626
00:31:01.920 --> 00:31:04.680
<v Speaker 2>different swagger confidence about him.

627
00:31:04.720 --> 00:31:05.559
<v Speaker 3>Have you noticed that?

628
00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:08.680
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, I mean, he's definitely still the same dude. But

629
00:31:08.720 --> 00:31:10.319
<v Speaker 11>I think it's tough for anyone to come into the league,

630
00:31:10.359 --> 00:31:13.240
<v Speaker 11>especially being so young, Like the first year you're kind

631
00:31:13.240 --> 00:31:15.400
<v Speaker 11>of getting a footing and kind of understanding what the

632
00:31:15.440 --> 00:31:16.119
<v Speaker 11>league's all about.

633
00:31:16.119 --> 00:31:17.200
<v Speaker 3>And I think he just kind.

634
00:31:17.039 --> 00:31:18.839
<v Speaker 11>Of got that footing last year and then came in

635
00:31:18.920 --> 00:31:21.039
<v Speaker 11>with the confidence knowing how good he is and he's

636
00:31:21.119 --> 00:31:22.640
<v Speaker 11>doing what everyone thought he would do.

637
00:31:22.680 --> 00:31:25.279
<v Speaker 2>Now, do you really believe the Japanese pitchers have a

638
00:31:25.319 --> 00:31:28.039
<v Speaker 2>bigger adjustment because of the baseball, because of the mound?

639
00:31:28.160 --> 00:31:29.039
<v Speaker 3>Is that a real thing?

640
00:31:29.480 --> 00:31:31.400
<v Speaker 11>Probably takes some time, I think so, for sure.

641
00:31:31.400 --> 00:31:31.880
<v Speaker 3>I think too.

642
00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:33.799
<v Speaker 11>Probably if you have like Humong his hands, it's probably

643
00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:36.680
<v Speaker 11>a bit easier, But like for Yamamoto's he's got like

644
00:31:36.799 --> 00:31:39.640
<v Speaker 11>relatively small hands. Yeah, I think the grip is probably

645
00:31:39.640 --> 00:31:42.200
<v Speaker 11>a lot different, just the ball being bigger and learning

646
00:31:42.240 --> 00:31:44.640
<v Speaker 11>how to leverage. It seems differently, and I'm sure there

647
00:31:44.680 --> 00:31:46.640
<v Speaker 11>definitely is some adjustment there.

648
00:31:46.640 --> 00:31:47.000
<v Speaker 7>For sure.

649
00:31:47.319 --> 00:31:50.759
<v Speaker 2>Tyler lastnow's got some meat hooks. What's the challenge of

650
00:31:50.839 --> 00:31:55.200
<v Speaker 2>having larger hands and does it feel like sometimes it's hard.

651
00:31:55.079 --> 00:31:55.720
<v Speaker 3>To get a feel?

652
00:31:55.799 --> 00:31:58.880
<v Speaker 2>I know, longer levers as well all of that. What's

653
00:31:58.920 --> 00:32:01.240
<v Speaker 2>it like to be to control the baseball?

654
00:32:01.359 --> 00:32:03.160
<v Speaker 11>I think it's probably harder to just staying connected. I

655
00:32:03.160 --> 00:32:05.039
<v Speaker 11>think when everything lines up, it's a lot better just

656
00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:08.200
<v Speaker 11>because you have like more leverage and like longer limbs

657
00:32:08.200 --> 00:32:10.039
<v Speaker 11>and all that stuff. But I think on the flip side,

658
00:32:10.359 --> 00:32:12.759
<v Speaker 11>when things are disconnected, it happens.

659
00:32:12.880 --> 00:32:14.200
<v Speaker 3>Maybe it's harder.

660
00:32:13.880 --> 00:32:15.920
<v Speaker 11>To line up for a tall guy than it is

661
00:32:15.960 --> 00:32:18.440
<v Speaker 11>for like a short guy. I guess that's what they

662
00:32:18.440 --> 00:32:19.759
<v Speaker 11>tell me anyway. And I think it's just the more

663
00:32:19.799 --> 00:32:22.400
<v Speaker 11>you do, like anyone, the more you learn your body

664
00:32:22.400 --> 00:32:24.440
<v Speaker 11>and the more you pitch, the easier just to make adjustments.

665
00:32:24.440 --> 00:32:25.920
<v Speaker 11>But I mean it's easier now for me than it

666
00:32:26.039 --> 00:32:28.359
<v Speaker 11>was five years ago, and hopefully five years from now

667
00:32:28.400 --> 00:32:29.519
<v Speaker 11>it'll be easier than this today.

668
00:32:29.640 --> 00:32:32.799
<v Speaker 2>So connected means not only just being connected to the ground,

669
00:32:32.839 --> 00:32:35.720
<v Speaker 2>but all of these long body parts being connected.

670
00:32:35.799 --> 00:32:36.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, right, that's what I mean.

671
00:32:36.880 --> 00:32:38.400
<v Speaker 11>Kind of like when your foot hits the ground, where

672
00:32:38.400 --> 00:32:40.359
<v Speaker 11>your arm is in space, like where everything is, where

673
00:32:40.359 --> 00:32:42.400
<v Speaker 11>your glove arm is, And I think it's really a

674
00:32:42.440 --> 00:32:44.799
<v Speaker 11>game of inches, And I think like any small little

675
00:32:44.839 --> 00:32:46.960
<v Speaker 11>adjustment you make out front, it really has a huge

676
00:32:47.000 --> 00:32:48.920
<v Speaker 11>effect on where the ball ends up. So it's just

677
00:32:49.119 --> 00:32:51.960
<v Speaker 11>for any good picture, it's about repeating mechanics.

678
00:32:51.720 --> 00:32:54.359
<v Speaker 2>And being consistent with where your front foot lands. Is

679
00:32:54.359 --> 00:32:57.359
<v Speaker 2>that like the key to timing where everything is coming

680
00:32:57.359 --> 00:32:59.279
<v Speaker 2>together when your front foot lands not.

681
00:32:59.519 --> 00:33:01.839
<v Speaker 11>I mean, for I think that's when you can like

682
00:33:01.880 --> 00:33:03.519
<v Speaker 11>kind of look at video and decipher that way. But

683
00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:05.759
<v Speaker 11>I think for everyone it's different, Like if you're landing

684
00:33:05.759 --> 00:33:08.400
<v Speaker 11>in the same spot, it doesn't necessarily mean that your

685
00:33:08.440 --> 00:33:10.519
<v Speaker 11>hands in a good spot, or like there's certain things

686
00:33:10.559 --> 00:33:11.519
<v Speaker 11>that you have to line.

687
00:33:11.319 --> 00:33:11.720
<v Speaker 7>Up, but.

688
00:33:13.160 --> 00:33:15.880
<v Speaker 11>It could be like a ton of reasons. People's adjustments

689
00:33:15.880 --> 00:33:17.960
<v Speaker 11>are all different. Like if mine might be at my

690
00:33:17.960 --> 00:33:20.279
<v Speaker 11>foot strike someone else's might be their balance plat. Like,

691
00:33:20.279 --> 00:33:22.000
<v Speaker 11>there's a ton of different things you can kind of

692
00:33:22.039 --> 00:33:22.359
<v Speaker 11>look at.

693
00:33:22.680 --> 00:33:25.960
<v Speaker 2>Sunday's your next start day. Obviously you got the cramps

694
00:33:26.039 --> 00:33:28.640
<v Speaker 2>in the last start. How you feeling leading up to it?

695
00:33:28.839 --> 00:33:29.079
<v Speaker 3>Good?

696
00:33:29.119 --> 00:33:31.599
<v Speaker 11>Everything feels good. I'm just gonna do a bunch of

697
00:33:31.680 --> 00:33:33.960
<v Speaker 11>hydration stuff and figure all that out and then hopefully

698
00:33:33.960 --> 00:33:38.039
<v Speaker 11>all can get out there and pitch hundred pitches or so.

699
00:33:38.400 --> 00:33:39.680
<v Speaker 3>Hey, whatever you do, it's work.

700
00:33:39.799 --> 00:33:41.880
<v Speaker 2>So you were an All Star last year for a reason,

701
00:33:42.279 --> 00:33:43.319
<v Speaker 2>and certainly it will get on.

702
00:33:43.279 --> 00:33:44.720
<v Speaker 3>Track for you. So thank you for the time.

703
00:33:44.799 --> 00:33:45.759
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, thank you, appreciate it.

704
00:33:45.839 --> 00:33:47.319

732
00:35:13.960 --> 00:35:14.280
<v Speaker 3>All right.

733
00:35:14.360 --> 00:35:17.480
<v Speaker 2>The Pirates are coming back from playing all the way

734
00:35:17.679 --> 00:35:21.559
<v Speaker 2>in Anaheim, where Paul Skeens grew up being an Angels

735
00:35:21.639 --> 00:35:25.159
<v Speaker 2>fan going to El Toro High School. The twenty two

736
00:35:25.239 --> 00:35:28.880
<v Speaker 2>year old Rookie of the Year certainly has a reputation

737
00:35:29.320 --> 00:35:32.199
<v Speaker 2>and has been a winner in fact, with the struggling

738
00:35:32.280 --> 00:35:36.360
<v Speaker 2>Pirates where they're at. Last year, the Pirates were fifteen

739
00:35:36.440 --> 00:35:40.199
<v Speaker 2>and eight and skiing starts. When Skeens was not starting games,

740
00:35:40.239 --> 00:35:43.760
<v Speaker 2>they were just sixty one and seventy eight. That's seventeen

741
00:35:43.920 --> 00:35:48.000
<v Speaker 2>games below five hundred. Skeens has been good, better than

742
00:35:48.079 --> 00:35:50.800
<v Speaker 2>a two and two record, but the facts are the

743
00:35:50.800 --> 00:35:53.280
<v Speaker 2>Pirates have not surrounded him and the rest of the

744
00:35:53.320 --> 00:35:56.639
<v Speaker 2>team with talent to score runs. The last time he pitched,

745
00:35:56.679 --> 00:35:59.599
<v Speaker 2>he went seven innings, allowed just two runs, but the

746
00:35:59.639 --> 00:36:03.159
<v Speaker 2>Pirates were shut out three nothing by the Guardians. For

747
00:36:03.239 --> 00:36:06.639
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers, they have their National League Say Young candidate

748
00:36:06.719 --> 00:36:10.400
<v Speaker 2>going tonight and Yoshi Yamamoto, who is three and one

749
00:36:10.440 --> 00:36:15.559
<v Speaker 2>with an ERA of zero ninety three, including last time

750
00:36:15.599 --> 00:36:19.519
<v Speaker 2>out going seven shutout innings, having ten strikeouts, no walks,

751
00:36:19.760 --> 00:36:21.599
<v Speaker 2>and outdueling.

752
00:36:20.960 --> 00:36:21.880
<v Speaker 3>Jacob de Grom.

753
00:36:22.280 --> 00:36:26.239
<v Speaker 2>In case you didn't realize this, Yamamoto has not given

754
00:36:26.320 --> 00:36:29.079
<v Speaker 2>up and earned run in the last twenty one innings

755
00:36:29.360 --> 00:36:31.639
<v Speaker 2>and has not given up a run period in the

756
00:36:31.719 --> 00:36:35.480
<v Speaker 2>last eighteen innings. From what I've been told from his teammates,

757
00:36:35.760 --> 00:36:39.400
<v Speaker 2>he's not even firing on all cylinders because he understands

758
00:36:39.559 --> 00:36:44.199
<v Speaker 2>better the one sixty two season, understands October means a lot,

759
00:36:44.519 --> 00:36:47.199
<v Speaker 2>and he's pitching with a lot of confidence. We're just

760
00:36:47.280 --> 00:36:51.320
<v Speaker 2>fifteen minutes away from this marquee pitching matchup. Keys to

761
00:36:51.400 --> 00:36:54.360
<v Speaker 2>the game are next with Rick Monday and Steven Nelson.

762
00:36:54.679 --> 00:36:58.559
<v Speaker 2>As we continue live from Dodgers Stadium, I'm Rongo Casino

763
00:36:58.679 --> 00:37:02.159
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers on Deck. This is the world champion Los Angeles

764
00:37:02.199 --> 00:37:03.599
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers Audio Network.

765
00:37:05.239 --> 00:37:10.000
<v Speaker 1>As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino Dodgers on

766
00:37:10.159 --> 00:37:15.199
<v Speaker 1>Deck on the official home of La Dodgers, Baseballs.

767
00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:20.239
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers and Pirates, We're getting set for a highly anticipated

768
00:37:20.320 --> 00:37:24.679
<v Speaker 2>pitching matchup between Yamamoto and Paul Skeins. When the Boys

769
00:37:24.719 --> 00:37:27.400
<v Speaker 2>in Blue play a home game, it's important that they

770
00:37:27.440 --> 00:37:30.039
<v Speaker 2>have the right plan to protect their house. The same

771
00:37:30.119 --> 00:37:33.599
<v Speaker 2>applies to your home. Always have a plan and follow

772
00:37:34.000 --> 00:37:38.559
<v Speaker 2>fire safety tips. For example, use or install ignition resistant

773
00:37:38.559 --> 00:37:42.920
<v Speaker 2>materials around your home. Use fire resistant materials when building

774
00:37:42.960 --> 00:37:46.519
<v Speaker 2>a deck. Replace vents with ember and flame resistant vents.

775
00:37:46.960 --> 00:37:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Use noncombustible fencing materials for the portion that connects to

776
00:37:51.000 --> 00:37:54.679
<v Speaker 2>the house. For more tips, go to fire dot CA

777
00:37:55.199 --> 00:37:58.480
<v Speaker 2>dot gov. All right, before first pitch, let's check in

778
00:37:58.559 --> 00:38:01.159
<v Speaker 2>once more with Rick Monday and Steven Nelson.

779
00:38:01.320 --> 00:38:03.840
<v Speaker 3>Guys, appreciate you, dv look Mo.

780
00:38:04.440 --> 00:38:07.119
<v Speaker 4>This segment is always about keys to the game, right,

781
00:38:07.159 --> 00:38:08.960
<v Speaker 4>and one of the keys for the Dodgers in terms

782
00:38:09.039 --> 00:38:11.440
<v Speaker 4>of getting to play better baseball is getting more out

783
00:38:11.440 --> 00:38:14.400
<v Speaker 4>of their big names, their MVPs at the top, both

784
00:38:14.480 --> 00:38:16.880
<v Speaker 4>of whom have cooled off. Muki had had his first

785
00:38:16.920 --> 00:38:20.119
<v Speaker 4>three hit game in a minute the finale in Chicago.

786
00:38:20.159 --> 00:38:23.559
<v Speaker 4>But show, hey, Otani, Mo has not looked himself. And

787
00:38:23.599 --> 00:38:26.079
<v Speaker 4>look before I'm gonna preface my question by saying this,

788
00:38:27.000 --> 00:38:29.360
<v Speaker 4>he just welcomed his first child to the world, and

789
00:38:29.480 --> 00:38:33.320
<v Speaker 4>Annie and every parent out there, they feel empathy and

790
00:38:33.320 --> 00:38:35.800
<v Speaker 4>they're giving Otani grace in that because they know it

791
00:38:35.920 --> 00:38:40.320
<v Speaker 4>is such a stressful, exhausting and emotionally draining thing. You're

792
00:38:40.360 --> 00:38:43.159
<v Speaker 4>not worried about one hundred miles prior or a devastating slider.

793
00:38:43.239 --> 00:38:46.000
<v Speaker 4>You're making sure that your baby's healthy and your partners. Okay, yeah,

794
00:38:46.079 --> 00:38:49.159
<v Speaker 4>so I think that is part of the calculus here.

795
00:38:49.199 --> 00:38:51.599
<v Speaker 4>But the fact is he does not look right the

796
00:38:51.679 --> 00:38:54.800
<v Speaker 4>at bats, the swings, the swing decisions, they've all been off.

797
00:38:54.920 --> 00:38:59.199
<v Speaker 6>No, And you wonder about the focus, and understandably, the

798
00:38:59.239 --> 00:39:01.880
<v Speaker 6>only thing about bringing first child or second child or

799
00:39:01.880 --> 00:39:05.079
<v Speaker 6>third child, end of the world is normal. There is

800
00:39:05.119 --> 00:39:07.559
<v Speaker 6>no normal. And then if we look at Otani the

801
00:39:07.639 --> 00:39:10.599
<v Speaker 6>last seven games, just a one ninety four batting average

802
00:39:10.599 --> 00:39:14.960
<v Speaker 6>against In fact, I started a little deeper diving, you know,

803
00:39:15.039 --> 00:39:18.639
<v Speaker 6>against relievers, He's done exceptionally well this year three forty

804
00:39:18.639 --> 00:39:21.760
<v Speaker 6>three against the starters two eleven average. Mookie Betts the

805
00:39:21.840 --> 00:39:25.079
<v Speaker 6>last seven games is hitting at one forty eight. If

806
00:39:25.119 --> 00:39:27.320
<v Speaker 6>we look at Michael Conford of the last seven games,

807
00:39:27.400 --> 00:39:30.679
<v Speaker 6>hitting at one fifty. Andy Pan has starting today starting

808
00:39:30.679 --> 00:39:32.199
<v Speaker 6>this swing the bat a little bit better the last

809
00:39:32.199 --> 00:39:35.079
<v Speaker 6>seven games two fifty. Hopefully that continues up on the upswing,

810
00:39:35.199 --> 00:39:39.599
<v Speaker 6>including with Max Munci who is starting to swing the

811
00:39:39.760 --> 00:39:42.320
<v Speaker 6>bat a little bit better. Watched him closely in batting

812
00:39:42.360 --> 00:39:45.599
<v Speaker 6>practice and just watching him at VP much better session.

813
00:39:45.840 --> 00:39:48.360
<v Speaker 4>You are right, I think you know the obviously the

814
00:39:48.400 --> 00:39:51.039
<v Speaker 4>stars draw all the attention, all the concern Right now,

815
00:39:51.079 --> 00:39:53.639
<v Speaker 4>what's wrong with Otani, what's wrong with Bets? But I

816
00:39:53.679 --> 00:39:56.639
<v Speaker 4>think this team proved last year at the end of

817
00:39:56.679 --> 00:40:01.760
<v Speaker 4>the year, the ups and downs of one sixty two, Otani, Bets, Freeman, Tasker, Hernandez,

818
00:40:02.159 --> 00:40:05.239
<v Speaker 4>those four you're not really stressed about. It's the other five,

819
00:40:05.840 --> 00:40:08.079
<v Speaker 4>and right now they're not getting enough from them either,

820
00:40:08.119 --> 00:40:10.760
<v Speaker 4>So hopefully they can pick that up in this homestand

821
00:40:11.920 --> 00:40:15.320
<v Speaker 4>way easier said than done, David Vasse for the Dodgers

822
00:40:15.400 --> 00:40:17.519
<v Speaker 4>or any hitter when you're facing Paul Skeens. But the

823
00:40:17.559 --> 00:40:19.039
<v Speaker 4>Dodgers got a great one on the mound as well,

824
00:40:19.159 --> 00:40:22.840
<v Speaker 4>Yoshinobu Yamoto. We cannot wait for this battle of the

825
00:40:22.880 --> 00:40:24.760
<v Speaker 4>aces here tonight at Dodgers Stadium.

826
00:40:24.840 --> 00:40:28.159
<v Speaker 2>All right, guys, can't wait for Paul Skansa Yama Moto.

827
00:40:28.320 --> 00:40:29.519
<v Speaker 3>Right around the corner.

828
00:40:29.960 --> 00:40:33.280
<v Speaker 2>After the game is over, we'll have postgame and Dodger

829
