Happy School Day, and welcome to Morongo Casino. Dodgers on
deck on this Tuesday, August the fourth, as you're back
to back World Series champion Dodgers are in Chicago to
take on the Cubbies. Dodgers sixty nine and forty four
on this season, first place atop the NL West, but

Trek Scooble on the mound for the first time wearing
Dodger blue. We got your Dodgers magical moment. Charlie Stanner
will stop by Shortley. Kirsten Watson will visit with the
sports and at LA Reporter. In just a few minutes,
we will check in with Tim Neverett and Rick Monday
out at the gallopin Ford Broadcast Booth. Well, last night,
(01:43):
the Dodgers got into a game of home run derby
with the Cubs and came up shorts. Justin Robleski got
the starts and the Dodgers, well, they give him some
instant offense. The first two batters of the game against
Matthew Boyd would reach that brought up Tommy Edmund two.
Speaker 6 (01:59):
On and no out.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Dodgers trying to strike early against the coachs and Edmund
does hits it deep till I failed way back and
gone first ball swinging Tommy Edmund his third hole none
of the season. A three run shot and the Dodgers
jump ball over boy.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
And it's three nothing Tommy Edmund, how about that? A
three run shot Dodgers a three to nothing lead. Three
batters into the game. You felt like the Dodgers were
going to be cruising the rest of the way.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
Up with three to nothing lead.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
However, Justin Robleski, two batters into the bottom of the
first gave up a two run home run to Suzuki.
Speaker 5 (02:39):
Just like that, it was three to two.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Then a two run home running the second, the Cubbies
took a four to three lead. Then a two run
home run in the third as the Cubbies extended their
lead up to six to three. The Dodgers would answer
back with an RBI single from Alfonso in the fourth.
They made it a six to four game. They were
starting to chip away until Michael Bush, former DoD homer
to left center field in the fifth as the Cubbies
(03:03):
took a seven to four lead. Four home runs given
up by Jess Robleski, who went four and a third
gave up seven runs, seven hits, walked three, gave up
the four home runs through ninety one pitches put the
Dodgers in a hole seven to four going to the
sixth anyone, ta Oscar Hernandez made a little dent into
that lead.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Then to the show, Tony get thrown out trying to
tag from first to second. Now Tioscar swings hits a
high drive dupay fit.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
It is over the bleachers and.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
On the Waveland Avenue, a home run for Taoscar Hernandez,
his eleventh of the season. It is now a seven
to five game as tay Oscar hit that ball four
hundred and forty.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
Three feet over everything.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Tai Oscar Hernandez with an absolute bomb to lof center field,
Dodgers cut the lead. It was set seven five Cubbies
when the wheels fell off in the bottom of the
six They walk with the bases loaded on an overturn
strike three call made it eight to five, and then
Michael Bush a single to right an air two runs scored.
It was a ten to five Cubs lead. They go
(04:14):
on to win by that thame final score. Matthew Boyd
gets to win. Justin Robleski tagged with the loss, he
falls to eleven and three. On this season, the two
teams combined for six home runs, four hit by the Cubbies,
two hit by the Dodgers. Unfortunately, the Dodgers on the
wrong end of it. They fall to sixty nine and
forty four. Don't look now, but the Dodgers have dropped
(04:35):
four in a row and they've given up thirty runs
during that stretch. Tonight they look to get back on
track with Terrek Scooble on the mound and his Dodgers
debut First bitchm Ridleyfield is coming up in five oh
five and with more, Let's head out to the galpin
Ford broadcast with as we welcome in Timp Neffett and
Rick Monday.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Guys, Tim, thank you very much, bright blue skies, over Lake,
Michigan and the North side of Chicago. Here in the
Friendly Confines once again Wrigley Field, as the Dodgers take
on the Chicago Cubs in Game two of this three
game series. The Dodgers start that night nine games up
on the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Diamondbacks have trimmed the lead
with the help of the Dodgers. The Dodgers since July
(05:15):
third are eleven and thirteen. Coincidentally, that was the last
time Otani pitched in a ballgame. But the Dodgers sixty
nine and forty four, have lost a season high time
four straight, looking to snap that skid tonight against the Cubs,
who are sixty four and forty nine, and the man
they'll be relying on tonight, making his Dodger debut and
(05:36):
his Wrigley Field debuts. Never pitched here, Trek scouble his
numbers in the American League with Detroit seven and five
in a two seven nine ERA. He will go against
right hander Javier assad who is six and one with
an earned run average of three point seven five Scooble.
The big story here tonight and the other story The
(05:56):
Dodgers have exchanged catchers k Robinson, dfaid Eliezer Alfonso sent
back to Triple A and on the active roster tonight
Ben Rodvett and Hunter Fidusia, with rot Vett getting the start.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
Yeah, not wasting any time at all. The Doctors need
some better catching receiving the ball, and it wouldn't help
a great deal to not be able to carry some
lumber back to the dugout on that end. Up it's
gonna be signing, no question about it with scooball but
it comes down to the brass tacks. As you mentioned,
the lead now just nine games, first time since June
has been single digit lead in the Western Division of
(06:33):
the National League. And a strange game last night because
three batters into the game the Dodgers had a three
to zhing lead, only to lose it by a score
at ten to five. And speaking of scores, the Dodgers
now they have given up too many runs, losing four
in a row. They've been outscored thirty runs to fifteen.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
And you look at the Dodger pitching and the numbers
are good overall. However, you mentioned thirty runs in the
last four games, including ten last night. Something's got to
change there.
Speaker 7 (07:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
And another thing that has to change too is that
the balls ran out of the ballpark last night, two
of them by the Cubs, two of them also by
the Dodgers. But if you look at this Dodger ball club,
interesting numbers have stumbled across and not then long ago.
You have the last sixteen games since the All Star break,
the Dodgers have allowed twenty nine home runs. My goodness.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
For last night as a result of Justin Robluski's pitching,
and that's two starts in a row. First time in
Dodger history Los Angeles or Brooklyn that a pitcher has
allowed four home runs in a game twice in a season,
and for Roblusky it's happened back to back. So we
expect some different things tonight with Trek Scouoble making his
(07:44):
Dodger debut. New in the lineup for the Cubs Tyron Taylor,
the former Met. He is now in the lineup for
the Cubs after the trading deadline, and he'll make his
Cub debut in this ball game tonight. A couple of
quick thanks. Tyler Glasnow pitched today in a We Have
game with Ontario, went two scoreless innings through another inning
in the bullpen. Blake Snell is pitching in Triple A
(08:06):
tonight against Salt Lake, the Angels top team. You say,
Kakuchi is his mom opponent in that one. He's also rehabbing,
So it's two pitchers tonight that are rehabbing, and we
may see Blake Snell back as soon as next week.
Dodgers and Cubs game two Dodgers looking to get back
in the win.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
To two pitch from Boyd and O'tani. It lifts it

can't get it. It drops in for a hit, a
well placed single by Otani, and here is two for two.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Show hey Otani, couple of base knocks last night. He
goes two for four now heading two ninety four on
this season. A three ninety eight on beast percentage in

dot org. That's cars with a.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
K Happy schoobl Day. Kirston as he makes his Dodger
debut can you believe it? It's funny. I was laughing.
Speaker 8 (10:25):
This is the day we have all been waiting for.
I mean since Saturday when it became a real possibility.
But honestly, I think kind of like coming into this season,
we knew he was going to be a free agent
and potential. What happened with the Tigers this year if
he didn't sign an extension, there was conversation that there
was going to be a chance that he could be dealt,
And now we are living the reality. Trek Spoobill is
(10:46):
a Dodger. He's putting on his uniform as we speak.
He's going to be taking that mound here shortly. And
it's kind of funny. I was talking to some of
the coaches earlier and Connor McGinnis, one of the pitching
assistants and pitching coaches, he was telling me, you did
you realize Cresh And yesterday Tarek he came out onto
the field. He was doing his warm up and kind
of getting a workout in, and he happened to come
(11:08):
out with his sleeves cut off. He's a lefty, a
similar routine to someone we know very well in Clayton
Kershaw and so Connor was like, it's almost like we
were seeing the passing of the baton in real time.
So obviously that's a very special comparison. And for Terrek,
he said that this is going to be his first
time pitching here at Riley Field and he's just looking
(11:30):
forward to, you know, kind of getting this one out
the way.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
He came here to this organization.
Speaker 8 (11:35):
He is a winner very much. So he's a competitor
at the highest of levels, and so he wants to
be a part of what this team has in mind
and going for a three peete and so it starts
today for him, just in his journey in Dodger Blue,
and so everyone's.
Speaker 6 (11:48):
Very excited about it.
Speaker 8 (11:49):
I have to say there's an energy here.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
No doubt, and behind the plate's gonna be a familiar face,
but a new face of this twenty twenty six Dodger team.
Speaker 8 (11:57):
It's funny we've got Ben work fed back. We've got
Ben as well as Hunter Fidusha, and these are two
guys that are very familiar when it comes to the organization.
For Hunter was with the organization for a long time,
about seven years before he was dealt the trade deadline
last year. Ironically, enough for Ben Rohtvett who came over
and stepped in and in a position where it's very
similar to this year he came over. There was an
(12:19):
injury to Will Smith dealing with that minor hand fraction
slash like deep bone bruise, and then you had Dalton
Rushing who took the foul ball off of his leg
and ended up being on crutches and had to go
on to the IL for a sort stent. So this
is a situation in which now Ben Wrtvett has stepped
back in. And if you remember the first game that
(12:40):
he caught when he was with the Dodgers, it was
nearly that no hitter in Baltimore. That was an unfortunate ending.
Speaker 5 (12:45):
You don't have to go back to that one.
Speaker 8 (12:47):
But for Yoshinobu, he was excellent, and so Dave Roberts
was saying to decide to pair him with Trek Skuble
in this one. He just know he felt very confident
with what he saw Ben, how he stepped in last
year for this team and just the experience that he's had.
He yes, maybe this year didn't spend time in the
big leagues, but he is a big league catcher. So
he has the utmost confidence. So a lot of today
(13:09):
was obviously a lot of smiles and seeing a lot
of familiar faces, but also seeing everyone, especially on the
pitching side, and just that battery truly being locked in
and getting ready for this game tonight.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Can I wait getting closer to first pitch, Kirsten. We
appreciate it. We'll check out with you after the game.
Still to come. Here on Marongo Casino Dodgers on Deck
will dive deeper into this great pitching matchup. David Vasa
will go one on one with the manager, Dave Roberts.
But up next an injury report and we'll hear from
Eric Lauer Who's gonna be with this Dodgers team the
remainder of the season. It's the Dodgers and the Cubs
from Wrigley Field in Chicago. Tim Kates is the back

Speaker 1 (14:26):
Well.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Eric Lauer in their absence, has been fantastic since coming
over in a trade from the Toronto Blue Jays. Eight starts,
nine appearances, five and zero with the two ninety six,
and the Dodgers didn't trade him at the trade deadline.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
All right. I gave Alex Call the opportunity to roast
me earlier today for you know, getting a little too
emotional close to trade deadline. And here you are. Eric
Lawer is still in a Dodger uniform. So I'm handing
the mic to you. Do your work. If you want
to roast me, you have the mic.
Speaker 1 (14:52):

I mean, I can't be too mad at you for
it because it was out there. It was kind of
like everybody saw it.
Speaker 12 (15:37):
Everybody knew it.
Speaker 9 (15:38):
It was kind of a real thing. So I mean,
I can't be too I can't roast you too bad
for it. You were just going off what you saw,
and that's what everybody does.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
So I'm sorry.
Speaker 9 (15:49):
I don't have I don't have much to roast you on.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
DV here about forty minutes away from first pitch. Tarrek
Scooble MA it his Dodger debut.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
What's he like on a game day?
Speaker 6 (17:04):
Well, here in Chicago at the Wrigley Field visiting clubhouse.
They did do renovations. It is a little bit more
spacious than what the original clubhouse was, but still not
a lot of room in there. So when I walked
into the clubhouse when the media was allowed in, Trek
Scoobel was doing his stretching, warming up his back and
(17:25):
doing some arm exercises as well for his shoulder, and
I asked Max Munsei something that I was really curious about,
is Schoolball as intense as Kershaw was on start day?
Because obviously he's at the top of his game back
to backside Young Award winner. Munsey told me emphatically, not
(17:46):
even close. You can talk to school Ball. You can
look him in the eye. You don't have to tiptoe around.
A lot more relaxed of a start day routine for
school Bowl than it was for Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
David is brought to you by a Ford summer sales event.
Don't wait hurrying now for the best offers of the year.
Go to buy Ford now dot com or you're Southern
California Ford Dealer for more information. Ford Official vehicle of
Major League Baseball. All Right, the Dodgers have a couple
of new catchers, well, new catchers, but really old Dodger catchers,
and they're back.
Speaker 5 (18:19):
We'rening Dodger blue.
Speaker 6 (18:21):
Yeah, ben Wartfitt is still doing the grounding. And when
he put his shoes and socks back on and was
done with the yoga, we had a big embrace. You
know when they talk about hug watch. There was some
hug watch going on when those two catchers came out,
and Ben Wartfitt was excited to be back. But you know,
the one thing he said to me, it's so weird,
(18:42):
so weird to be back. And also he said, can
you believe that me and Hunter Fiducca were treated for
each other? I said, yeah, Ben, I'm really aware of that.
You know, I'm aware that you were traded for each
other and now you're actually teammates. And that's the same
thing Hunter Fiducia said to me when we saw each other.
He said, yeah, you know, we were traded for each other.
(19:03):
We're kind of linked with each other, but we've never
met each other before today. So they are the two catchers.
Alisira Alfonso and Chuckie Robinson no longer on the active rosters,
so rourtfit catches today. Hunter Fiducia earlier this afternoon went
out to catch Roki Sasaki's bullpen session. So you would
(19:24):
have to imagine that Fiduca may be in line to
catch Roki on Friday in Arizona.
Speaker 5 (19:28):
Dave, real quick. People still buzzing about that ta Oscar
home run.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
Yeah, including Taoscar himself. I was trying to bait him
to get him upset. I said, hey, I think the
wind was blown out. He's like, no, okay, yeah, sure
it was. And Tanner Scott asked him how far did
that home run go? On to Waveland Avenue last night
and the sixth inning Taoscar Hernandez without hesitation, four hundred
(19:53):
and forty three feet. He knew the exact distance of
his home run last night.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
It was a pretty impressive home run. Out about it
all right, David. We'll check back you with you just
a little bit.
Speaker 7 (20:02):
Dan.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
It's gonna go one on one with the manager, Dave

Turner in the postseason with the Dodgers is twelve for
seventeen during the regular season, three walk off hits Turner

home run for Justin Turner. The Dodgers are up two
games to none and they are going crazy.

Speaker 12 (23:14):
All right, Tim, is game one hundred and fourteen. These
are forty nine games left. The Dodgers now with the
second best record in the National League, half a game
behind Milwaukee and only a game and a half in
front of Atlanta. Having said that, the Dodgers, at sixty
nine and forty four, have a nine game lead on
(23:34):
Arizona and eleven over San Diego. The Cubs come in
in second place in the National League Central, five and
a half behind the Brewers at sixty four up and
forty nine down. But the story coming into today's game
as the Dodgers look to avoid a five game losing streak,
is the first appearance for Tarrek Scoobel on the Hill
(23:55):
or the Dodgers and boys they ever need him.
Speaker 10 (23:57):
Today.
Speaker 4 (23:58):
Well, it's a big story and there's no infan and
butts about it. And for a schoobl he brings in
I think a lot of anticipation of what is going
to happen. But regardless of how well he pitches, the
Dodgers have to hit the ball better. They have to
run the bases better. And for Dave Roberts after that
loss last night, where they have now lost four in
a row, as you mentioned, they've been outscored at that
(24:19):
time thirty runs to fifteen, and Roberts said, and I quote,
we just can't find a way to limit damage, end
of quote. And hopefully that's going to be end of
the struggles. In no better time than tonight to start
that new trend.
Speaker 12 (24:33):
School Ball has given up eight earned runs in his
last six starts combined, the record of four and one
in the area of one ninety five.
Speaker 5 (24:42):
Another interesting note about schoobl.
Speaker 12 (24:44):
There's two forty six er since the beginning of twenty
twenty three among the best with pitchers with fifty or
more starts false games at two point fifty one, then
Blake Snell at six, then shohey Otani had two sixty five,
and Yoshinova Yamamoto two seventy. So three of the five
(25:08):
best ers in the National League are Dodgers. Now they've
got to get up their job done. As you mentioned,
they're gonna start hitting and fielding too.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
Yeah, and what's the story with the Justin Robleski, who
was you know four and a third last night gave
up another four home run game. That's back to back games.
That's eight home runs in the last two outings. And
for Rubleski, I mean the last ten and a third innings,
given up twelve runs, fourteen hits, and eight of those
fourteen have been hit out of the ballpark. And last
(25:39):
night the problem was he kept throwing the bone in
the middle part of the plate and it kept getting whacked.
Speaker 12 (25:44):
Actually, you go two full starts where they weren't very full.
In his last two starts in ERF ten forty five
batting average against three eighteen and in ten at a
third he has walked three, he struck out eleven. As
you mentioned, he eat home runs his last two starts.
But apparently he is going to start again on Sunday
(26:05):
and then who knows what.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
Yeah, and we'll find out. You look at Blake Snell,
he's not far from rejoining the ball club. The other part, too,
is that I got a phone call that Tyler Glasnell
pitched a couple of innings a very early game, ten
am game in rancho today and got through that one
pretty well. So that's another step up. But meanwhile, the
Doctor Charlie is we've been watching and talking about they
(26:30):
had to play better baseball. I mean, they were outplayed
in the series against the Boston Red Sox before coming
on this road trip, and they were certainly out played
last night. And if you're looking at the Cubs, what
gets overlooked from the Cubs. They're one of the truly
outstanding defensive teams and they were flashing the gloves last
night with good leather.
Speaker 12 (26:48):
And they made a bevy of moves before the deadline,
picking up Clay Holmes, Tyrone Taylor, Ryan, Zephyr John and
Brax and Garrett. Not to mention, of course, Kevin Gosman,
who is their new ace, and he's supposed to pitch
this weekend, probably on Sunday for the Cubbies. And so
that's a team on the rise and the Dodgers still looking.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
To regain their sea legs.
Speaker 12 (27:12):
So it's going to be Tarrek Schooble making this Dodger
debut seven and five on the year two seventy five
era when he was in Detroit. Avier Asada is going
for the Cubbies lineups in the first pitch coming up
in just a bit, Tim, all.
Speaker 5 (27:26):
Right, thank you, Charlie.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
Dodgers Baseball is brought to by Uniclo Field, the Dodgers Stadium.
Visit unicloded dot Com. Slash us still to come here
on Dodgers on Deck. Before first pitch, We'll get you
a previous pitching matchup. I'll also get to the keys
of the game. But up next the manager Dave Roberts.
It's the Dodgers and Cobs. Happy school day, everybody. I'm
Tim Kason's the back to back World Series champion Dodgers
Audio Network.
Speaker 7 (27:47):
As we were saying, this is Marongo Casino, Dodgers on
tap on, the official home of La Dodgers Baseball.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
It's the Dodgers in Cubbies Trek Scouebel. It is Dodger's
debut Baseball brought to by Shaky's Pizza Parlor, the official
pizza partner the Dodgers Audio broadcast.
Speaker 5 (28:06):
When is Game nine? It's group Night, Shaky's dot Com.
Speaker 7 (28:10):
And now what will likely be vast a fielding insults
from a Dodger player.
Speaker 5 (28:15):
It's an engagement of endearment.
Speaker 6 (28:16):
This is high and tight It's Schooble Day in Chicago.
Trek Scooble getting set to make his Dodger debut, and
we're in the manager's office for the manager's meeting presented
by Downy hun Day with Dave Roberts. Dave, thanks a
lot for the time, and how excited are you for today?
Speaker 15 (28:33):
I am. I'm excited like all Dodger fans, and obviously
coming off losing four in a row, you know, to
have a guy like Terrek take the mound and be
our stopper, that's what we're looking for. And you know,
this is what I just learned is this is his
first time pitching at Wrigley Field, So I think it's
gonna be something special for him, not only just to
don the Dodger uniform, but to also pitch on Wrigley Field.
Speaker 10 (28:55):
So it's gonna be an exciting one.
Speaker 6 (28:57):
On Sunday Night Baseball, it was not a game. You
had just removed Emma sheehan from the game, but when
you got back to the dugout, he was waiting for you.
What's been the interactions like so far with Dave Roberts
and Trek Skouoble.
Speaker 10 (29:10):
Yeah, that was quite the juxtaposition.
Speaker 15 (29:12):
You know, you're giving up homers and you're not feeling
good about the game, but then you turn around then
you see Trek Scooble, So that certainly put a smile
on my face, and you know, we were starting to
build slowly. I think that him getting into town early
to do his Day three lift, to meet the guys
in the dugout, spent a couple of days with them,
and then get on the player plane, I think was
(29:34):
great for his kind of assimilation with the guys, and
I think for me just little chats here there and
obviously gearing up for today, so you sort of leave
him alone. But he is a lot more talkative and
present than you know other starting pitchers. Not name Clayton Kershall,
named Clayton Kershall, but no, he's great, excited to be here.
(29:57):
But I think for me, he just wants to get
this first one out of the way.
Speaker 6 (30:01):
Yeah, it's funny. I just asked Max Munsey if Scooble
is Krushaw like on start day. He said he couldn't
be from the further of Kershaw.
Speaker 10 (30:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 15 (30:09):
And that's the funny thing is that even Clayton admitted
that he's like and you guys are gonna love him. Doc,
You're gonna love him. And he's more normal on his
start days than I was.
Speaker 6 (30:18):
Yeah, I was worried to look at Kershaw on the eye.
So I've been traumatized. I don't look at anybody in
the eye on start day.
Speaker 10 (30:24):
No, I hear. You never know.
Speaker 15 (30:26):
And these starters it's once every five six days, and
so they get this adrenaline, this emotion, this focus and
get pretty irritable. And you know, Clayton was one of
those guys that I remember playing with Kevin Brown when
I played with the Dodge, and he was that way
where you just you know, you want to get that
(30:46):
kind of five foot radius and stand clear.
Speaker 6 (30:48):
It's interesting how certain guys get ready for start days
that are really good pictures, like Yamamoto, like a Schoobal.
You've seen so many. Like you said, is there at
a certain point in time. I'm a switch that flips
before the game begins.
Speaker 15 (31:04):
It does, But I think that some guys it starts,
you know, right when they get into the parking lot,
you know, at the ballpark, and it's that intensity, and
some guys it's a slower burn as you lead up
to the game. When they get their stretch, they start
playing catch. And I think the thing is, though, is
that it's just got to be natural and organic, because
(31:25):
what happens is that if you try to manufacture that focus,
that intensity too early, that expends energy. And that's something
that I have seen with young pitchers that you got
to be who you are.
Speaker 10 (31:36):
You can't have it too contrived.
Speaker 15 (31:39):
There's certainly got to be a level of focus, but
I think that you got to be mindful of expending
too much energy.
Speaker 6 (31:44):
Dave can't wait for first pitch Trek Scouoble taking the
Mount tonight at Wrigley Field. Thanks as always for the time.
Speaker 10 (31:51):
Thanks Dave Love it can't wait till next week.

Speaker 3 (32:48):
Javier Asad on the match six and one with the
three seventy five e twenty nine year old right hender
in his fifth season on the big leagues, making his
tenth start, nineteenth appearance. He's pitched out of the bullpen,
but up and down from triple A last time out
four and the thirds, one run, six hits, six strikeouts
and a no decision against the Cardinals. He's got a
one to fifty ero ray over his last five appearances.
That's three earned runs over eighteen innings. He has made
(33:09):
two career appearances one start against the Dodgers, a thirteen
to fifty era. He faced the Dodgers in relief on
April twenty fifth this season at Dodgers Stadium. Allowed six
runs on two hits with two strikeouts, and his lone
career start in twenty twenty three at Wrigley Field, he
recorded in no decision. It's Trek scooble Day makes his Dodgers' debut.
The twenty nine year old left hander, acquired Sunday at
the trade deadline, makes his major Dodger debut after making
(33:32):
his major league debut in twenty twenty back to back
Cy Young Award winner twenty twenty four to twenty twenty five.
His first start with the Dodgers, twentieth overall this year.
Last start with the Tigers game last Wednesday in Detroit,
six and two third innings, three runs, four hits, six
strikeouts and a no decision. He's making his first career
start at Wrigley Feel. He's owns a one to one
record against the Cubes with a four to twelve rray.
(33:54):
Trek Schouble makes his Dodger debut. Dodgers and Cubs were

Speaker 3 (34:34):
Back out to the booth one final time, Tim Neverettrick Monday, Guys.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
Tim, thanks very much. We're counting you down to the
first pitch tonight at Wrigley Field. The Dodgers and the
Cubs and all eyes on Trek's Schooble. And you know
it's a big day when the dugout is completely full.
During the manager's presser yesterday, Trek scoopbel met the press
that room was full. They had to get a special
room to accommodate everybody. It's a big deal tonight, not
(34:59):
only is on local television, but it's being picked up
on national television.
Speaker 10 (35:02):
Two.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
What do you think of Trek Skuble on the mound
for the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (35:07):
Well, you're looking at a two time signing Young Award
winner in the American League. I would just tell Trek
Scooble hein just be yourself. I mean, he's never pitched
here at Wrigley Field. Doesn't matter. You make good pitches,
it's gonna work. But the last six starts he's allowed
just eight runs eight earn runs totaled, and that's over
thirty seven innings. I mentioned earlier the Dodgers the last
sixteen games had allowed twenty nine home runs. Well for
(35:30):
scoobl he has not allowed a home run over his
last four starts.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
Scooble has a two point four to six ERA since
the start of twenty three, which is the best among
pitchers with fifty or more starts in that span. Paul
Schemes with the Pirates second at two fifty one, but
the rest of the top five Blake Snell, Shohei Otani,
and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. So the Dodgers have four of the
(35:56):
top five ERA guys since twenty twenty.
Speaker 4 (35:59):
Three, Javier Assad on the mountain for Chicago. The Dodgers
need to figure out how to jump on that fast ball.
Throws it a lot, and since well, really the month
of July five games, three of those starts, Ason has
an ERA in just one point five and giving up
just two home runs over those five games.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Dodgers and Cubs coming up from Wrigleyfield.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
Tim all right, we'll keep an eye on what happens
over in the desert tonight as the Diamondbacks play hosts
of the San Diego Padres. Don't look now, but Arizona
is only nine games back in the division they've won
six of their last ten. Padres only eleven games back
in the Western Division of the National League, as they
have won eight of their last ten. So the Dodgers
need to get back on the winning track.
Speaker 5 (36:41):
Snap this four game losey streak.
Speaker 3 (36:43):
No better guy to have on the mound than Trek
Scoogle making his Dodgers' debut. Dodgers Cubbies, this has been
Morogo Casino. Dodgers on deck on your back to back
