Rooth did Barbot storming tours back then and in Japan,
(03:06):
and it was so big then that you're talking in
the thirties. So yeah, yeah, it's huge now too.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
It is unbelievable. What the stage is going to be
tonight for this Game one of the World Series. How
about we giveaway Chef Mariito taco party right now eight
sixty six nine eighty seven two five seventy eight sixty
six ninety seven two five seventy one lucky Dodger fan
is going to have a taco party. Carne a sada,
tacos and na chosen those Dodger helmets. You can't get
(03:34):
to a game, but you can celebrate at home thanks
to Chef Manito Seasoning, the official partner of the Dodgers.
In the seasoning, It's World Series time, bring out the
chef in you. Eight six six nine eighty seven two
five seventy Lucky Caller number five right now is getting
a taco party at home during this World Series eight
(03:56):
six six ninety eighty seven two five seven Uh. This
Game one Tonight's got the three Stars for the Dodgers,
the three Stars for the New York Yankees, Soto Judge,
Stanton Otani, Betts Freeman for the Dodgers. On paper? Is
it even Lee match?
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Saxy?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Is it is it? Starv's Star? Is there an advantage?
Either way you think, uh.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Hey, it's pretty close.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
And listen if this really says something about the Yankees,
because if you can pretty much match up against Otani
and Betts and Freeman, wow, I mean that is amazing.
But that shows you, you know, the star quality over there.
When John Carlos Stanton is on, they probably win. When
John Carlos Stanton and Judge are on, definitely gonna win.
(04:46):
When Stanton, Judge and Soto are on. Good luck, that's
that is tough to beat. So you've got to thwart
the ability of two of those guys. Judge really hasn't
gotten off the mark yet. And let's just keep it
right there. Somebody's gonna pay, but let's have it happen
in spring training.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
So there it is. It's close. I mean, it's almost
a flip, that's how good they are.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Do you nibble around those big three hitters for the
Yankees with Anthony Rizzo probably gonna be in between Judge
and Stanton.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
Some probably Yeah, I mean, you know, Rizzo, he's a
you know, this guy's a this guy's a really good player,
really good baseball player. However, he's got two broken fingers
on his right hand. Yeah, and it's that's gonna be
a matter of time before that thing heals up. I
think you, I think you bury him inside as much
as you possibly can and kind of neutralize his power.
(05:35):
He becomes then just kind of like a singles maybe
a double hitter, but he can't he can't pull the
bat through with that right hand. I saw him in
you know, in his last games. Unless something happens with
his rehab that shoots him forward. But what I saw
was he he was a guy that can just flare
it the other way right now, and you know, he's
right on top of the plate, gets hit a lot,
so he challenges the ball inside. Tough for him to
do with two broken fingers.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Let's go out to our Dodger insider, the one and
only David vasse joins now and we appreciate them being
with us today. It's gonna be a long one game
one coming up at five oh eight. He's got pre
he's got post. He'll be at the stadium all day long.
He's the best insider out there. He was out a
media day yesterday Saxy. He had an hour long Dodger
Talk last night talking to Brian Cashman, Jean Carlos, Stanton,
(06:17):
Chris Taylor, Alex Vesia. It was a who's who on
Dodger Talk last night for David vest.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
That's what David does. Yes, he's one guy that can
do that.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I mean, the rest of the media's racing to get
to Otani. David walks calm and cool as can be
to get to the media day because the players come
to him. He is David veasse, what's up, David?
Speaker 3 (06:35):
How you doing?
Speaker 6 (06:37):
Damn? I am taking you guys everywhere with me. You
just make that announcement as I walk into the clubhouse.
I'll get any interview I need.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
We'll do it for you, and we'll get the Rocky
theme going for you. David and all Saxy gave us
the greatest story of all time, David real quick.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
He said it.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
During the playoffs in nineteen eighty eight, Kenny G was
performing the national anthem and it was so bad David
that he got a baseball. John Shelby not only did
he booje on Kenny G, he threw the baseball at
Kenny G and hit him with the baseball after he
performed Yes in the ankle.
Speaker 6 (07:10):
Hey, Steve, that doesn't surprise me because John Shelby when
he was a coach with the Dodgers, he was very
judgmental of the anthem singer. He did not like the
anthem singer. He would he would shout brutal, brutal.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
Absolutely, thank you John for carrying on the tradition. Absolutely,
there you go.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah, here's the best.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I love it.
Speaker 6 (07:30):
Yeah, I love Key Bow. What a great guy.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Yep, David.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
David were a few hours away from the roster coming out,
and usually don't get too excited about the World Series
roster getting announced, but there could be some big moves
for the Dodgers affecting their bullpen, getting some arms back.
This is gonna be a big announcement a couple hours.
Speaker 6 (07:48):
Yeah. And I thought yesterday at Media Day talking to
Alex Vescia, it gave the Dodgers a big boost of
confidence that after him throwing the hitters two days ago,
he felt goot eight coming out of it. And the
reason why I point out Alexsia is because he is
the weapon to get Juan Soto out. Juan Soto in
(08:11):
four at bats against Alex Vesia in his career does
not have a hit. We saw with Alex Vesia and
how he was deployed against Sodo in the Bronx during
the summer. He is vital to the Dodgers game plan
to get these big boys out and he is the
guy to get Soto out. So it is huge to
(08:32):
have Alex Vesia healthy and ready to go in this
World Series because if they did not have Alexsia, it
has a ripple effect on a couple of different fronts.
Number One, they did have to piece it together without
him in a bullpen game during the NLCS twice. That
made it tough for Dave Roberts to navigate twenty seven outs.
(08:54):
Number Two, in the World.
Speaker 7 (08:56):
Series, like I said, Vesia is the guy to face
one Soto and whoever's hitting behind him because he's able
to get righty's and lefties out.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Yeah, you're the best. You're right, David.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
Good to be with you this morning, David, speaking of
all the pitching, I mean, just to wrap the whole
thing up. You starters against you know, LA starters against
the New York starters. Is it that the Dodgers need
to push, stretch whatever they can do. They need thirty
to thirty two innings out of those starters. And then
my second part of my question is how do the
bullpens match up with Weaver and Hill and those guys
(09:31):
on the other side against the Dodgers' bullpen.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
Well, number one, I saw Tommy Kinley's act a lot
with the Dodgers, and I wasn't impressed in the Alcs.
Only did was throw his change up, and the Dodgers
created that monster. They were the ones that told him fastball,
change up, and they obviously know what's coming from Tommy
Kinley and how to identify that change up. As far
(09:57):
as the starting pitching goes, Steve, that's odd.
Speaker 8 (10:00):
Obviously.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
If you're doing a tale of the tape, that's where
the Yankees have the advantage, right That's where they're at.
And from my understanding, talking to some players that have
watched the video, talking to people that have covered the
Yankees during the course of October, they actually told me
they believe right now Carlos Rodin has better stuff than
(10:23):
Garrett Cole. A lot of people are very nervous on
the Yankee side about what they're going to get from
Garrett Cole with the way he's pitched recently. So that's
just a little heads up on you know, the here
and now. It's one thing to look at the body
of work, but that doesn't mean a lot in the
here and now, And for what I understand the here
and now, rodn is pitching better than Garrett Cole.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
David vesa our Dodger insider with us as we are
live in local all day long leading up to first
pitch at five oh eight from the Galpum Motors broadcast
with Dodgers and Yankees David. Jack Flaherty looked calm and
cool speaking to the media yesterday. What's the vibe you
got from him in the last couple of days leading
up to this game?
Speaker 3 (11:04):
One start?
Speaker 2 (11:05):
I know he's excited. It's what he's always dreamed of.
The last time out, still got that kind of sour
taste in his mouth from Game five of the NLCS.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
Yeah. One thing about Jack Clarty, nobody knows what he's thinking.
He's a guy that keeps it very close to the vest.
I even was talking to some of his teammates and
they said, we don't even know. We don't really know
how he's feeling day to day. He doesn't really say
a lot. But my understanding is is Jack's a guy
that if the first inning goes well, he's going to
(11:35):
have a good start. If it doesn't go well, it's
going to be a rough day. So you're hoping tonight
that the first inning goes well for him. Obviously it's
not going to be easy. He's one of the tougher
first innings you're going to have to see with Juan
Soto up there and possibly Aaron Judge. So the first
inning is going to be a great tell sign. And look,
(11:57):
here's another subplot. The Yankees almost the trigger on a
trade for Jack Flaherty, but at the eleventh hour pulled
out over concerns with his back, and that's been something
that has gotten out there publicly and ever since then.
Whenever the fastball velocity is down, there's a lot of
questions about whether or not Jack is feeling great physically.
(12:19):
He hasn't said anything. Obviously, he has a lot of
money at stake. He's a free agent at the end
of the year, so he's not really going to reveal
too much on that front. But you just hope, you know,
I don't have any concerns about him. In LA the
back is easier and your body as a whole is
easier to loosen up than it is in forty degree.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Weather back East, Yeah, David.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
As far as the time off used to be a big,
big thing to talk about, you know, the rust factor
and all that. Dodgers kind of put that to bed
when they had that time off and came up and
beat which what I think is probably the second best
team in all the playoffs, the San Diego Padres took
care of them. Now you have another layoff, any tall
talk about you know, guys are rust or what's the
(13:02):
workout in preparation been like? Were they able to mimic
what they did in getting ready for the Padres?
Speaker 6 (13:09):
Actually steve to a man. All the Dodgers say the
time off was beneficial because of how banged up they
are as a team, right Freddie Freeman, and also the bullpen.
The bullpen could need it these days off to reset
for the World Series after pitching two bullpen games and
being used quite a bit. So this is a welcomed
(13:31):
five days off and it was used to get guys
right physically.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
David, we appreciate you jumping on this morning. It's going
to be a great day out of Dodgers Stadium. I
know you'll be out there in a couple of hours.
He'll hear you on Petchrol, some money, Marongo Casino, Dodgers
on deck, and of course all the postgame festivities as well.
It's a big one at city. Is a buzz for
Game one of this world series.
Speaker 6 (13:53):
Thanks TV, you to man, David Hey, thanks guys, and
John Shelby will love the national anthem today, Paisley, you'll
going to deliver better than Kenny g and eighty eight.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
I got that right, Thanks David Hey, you guys all right?
Speaker 2 (14:08):
There he goes the great David Vesse, who was at
Dodger Stadium until eight o'clock last night doing Dodger talk
and just killing it as far as his coverage is concerns.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Isn't that cool what he said? Though? I mean, you
guys even looked it up. Mike Marshall, this is arace
to America.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I love it. I love that it was it was.
I wish there's video of it. We're seeing videos of
uh Plasito what's the guy's name? Yes, yes, singing it
in the NLD NLCS as well at at Dodger Citi Voice.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
You didn't boo him, did you? They'll know? Okay, they'll know.

LA Sports. Andre.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
Good morning to Tim with Steve is doing it?
Speaker 3 (18:33):
What's up doing?
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Fantastic Dodgers Yankees biggest stage the World Series. I know
you were in New York for the NLCS a week
or so ago. Now he got Dodgers and Yankees on
the biggest stage. How big is this for baseball? On
the Dodgers, I.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
Should just say it doesn't get any bigger than it is.
And I think you keep seeing it and you hear it,
and you know, it's really big because the amount of
hate that's coming from the other side saying that it
is a you know, doesn't mean really mean that much
because these teams are supposed to be here. But you know,
with that being said, yeah, it's a big series. You got,
you know, arguably two of the bigger sluggers, you know,
(19:12):
the biggest sluggers in the game, if not three or
four of you know, sluggers in the game that a
would be squaring off iconic franchises. Everyone knows what an
n Why Yankee hat looks like. Everyone knows what our
LA Dodgers hat looks like, you know, and it's it's
it's I just can't believe that, you know. You say,
(19:34):
it's still going to be the twelfth meeting, and it's
going to be the first time and what is it
forty three years that they've met up, and it's the
matchup of a lifetime. It really is. I'm forty two
and I've never got to see this myself and I
get to finally get a chance to see a Yankees
Dodgers world series.
Speaker 5 (19:52):
Yeah, Andre, good to be with you this morning. And
obviously this is going to be an epic battle. Looking
at this Yankee lineup with its it out a bit
with the Soto probably gonna hit second Judge, third John
Carlo down in the fits lot.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
He's probably the hottest guy on the planet.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
How do you which guy do you aim to kind
of nail, which guy you want to pitch around, or
what's kind of the weak spot that you can attack
in this Yankee lineup? It's pretty stacked.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Cool.
Speaker 4 (20:18):
Yeah, I think they've done a good job of what
they're and then you know, they added back Rizzo and
it gets even longer when that happens, and I think
you just got to, you know, pick and choose. I
think I think they they pose the same risk that
we see on the dogger side, right like we have
the keyk's, you know, the admins that you start going
(20:39):
and and hey, I'm not gonna let this guy hurt
me at the top lineup, and you start letting those
guys in the Pottle lineup have those bats that are
the high pressure and they come through. And I think
that's the same thing the Yankees have done really well
of and just have a great overall offensive balance. And yeah,
their star had that big hit in the game, that
put him over the top to you know, clinch that
(20:59):
person series. But there was a lot of offense added
from those guys who you you don't expect. I guess,
I guess it wouldn't be saying you don't expect. It's
just you know that Judge, you know that Stamp, you
know that Soto is going to get their, get their
you know, chances to make big impacts in the game.
And when they have guys at the other part of
(21:20):
the lineup stepping up, getting big hits, keeping things going,
that's when it makes it tough for you know, a
pitching staff, a team to keep going out there battling.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Andre Freddie Freeman just hasn't been the same since the
ankle injury and missed a couple of games in the
NLCS watching from the dugout because it's still bothering him
and it will continue to bother him until this postseason
is over. As a left handed hitter yourself, can you
kind of tell our listeners, you know, the right ankle sprain,
how much you need that in hitting at the plate
(21:48):
as a left handed hitter and why, you know, for
a lot of Dodger fans wondering what it's an ankle sprain.
How much does it really bothering a guy who plays
first base and is a left handed hitter. How much
you really need that right ankle in the box?
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Yeah, you know, for one, that right ankle, that's that
slide leg out on front. And you know, if you
have certain mechanics, you want to stay square to home
plate rather than you know, kind of rotated. And you know,
if everyone can kind of imagine that, you know, you
got your rectangle batter's box and you're trying to keep
yourself as square as possible towards the plate, you know,
not towards the field. And if you have to kind
(22:21):
of start opening up your front side of your foot
and the front side and rotating that front foot more
towards the playing field, more towards the pitching. You know,
the picture out there, you're starting to start losing some
of your mechanics, you start losing some of the things
that make you a great successful hitter. And by all means,
Freddy could probably go up there and hit any way possible.
He could probably go up there and hit in multiple
(22:41):
different stands with you know, the you know, hand eye
coordination to bat to the ball, that he's able to provide,
but it's not going to be the same Freddy that
everyone's used to and see, and I think that's kind
of the frustrating part for him for fans what we're seeing.
But you know, I think it's a two to three
to four week but digression of you know, his injury,
(23:01):
and I think we're right there at that four week
spot where you know, hopefully it's going to be so
it's going to be painful for him, but it's going
to be hopefully toggled enough where he can start and
get back into that comfortable stance, that comfortable position, and
start taking as soon as he wants. And then obviously
at first base, you know, it's just that side to
side that's probably what's the worst. Going going straight with
(23:23):
any acile Indy right, Steve, you know, you know that
like going straight back and forth, it's fine, but as
soon as you have to cut, as soon as you
have to turn over, so you have to get any angle,
any you know, any type of turn, especially running the bases,
get that angle where you're running. It's it's actually kind
of nice I'm thinking about now to have a right
angle spring because you're not getting over the top because
we're always turning left in baseball, right, we're always turning
(23:45):
left when we run on the basis, So he's only
have to get over the top of his left ankle.
But if he was having to get over the top
of his right angle right ankle and step over himself
to run the bases of the opposite direction, that's when
he gets painful. And you could kind of see that
when he has to go to the ball the whole
to the right side. You have to get over that ankle,
and it's probably becoming a little subtle, a little, a little,
(24:06):
you know, I guess changing the mechanic's body gets sore,
all that stuff, and you know it's kind of just
chasing that that uh, you know, that little source spot
around his body.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
Now, yeah, you know, andre I wanted to talk to
you speaking about running the bases this.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
These teams are both built, both built for slug However,
the Dodgers really have the advantage, I believe as far
as a team speed. We saw Otani go from first
to home the other day without breaking a sweat, look
like he was just having a good time dancing around
the dancing around the bases. But is this something that
could be a difference maker the overall team speed for
the Dodger. You were a gold glove outfielder, you know
(24:43):
the difference in what speed means to peek up a
little bit early when you think those guys might be
going an extra base. How about the the the advantage
of team speed and the the the pressure that it
puts on the defense.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Well, I think we can just wipe off this conversation
because he's a whole He's a whole thing of his
own right, Like I don't even know. I still can't
grasp my head around the fifty stolen bases and fifty
home runs. I mean fifty home runs. I can see
fifty sole voices is mind body? And I think Aaron, uh,
you know, Judge said it the best, Like, I mean,
(25:20):
he's the best. Let's just keep it there. It's all impressive.
But yes, uh, Dodgers their team speed, you know they
can base running speed puts a lot of pressure on defense,
and it does it in many ways. It doesn't ball
hits it infielder guy has great speed. He can beat
it out, rush Russians to field in the ball, rush
them to throw it. A lot of things can happen.
(25:41):
Same thing with you know, guys on base. Pitchers have
to change up their their wind ups, their cadences on
the mound. Maybe they're going to hang a slider now,
make a bad pitch bound something because they're focused. You know,
they're focus on the base runners a little bit more
than the hitter. We get a cookie as a hitter boom,
you know, speed does it. Same thing. All field just
makes make mistakes. It's it's across the board. Managers will
(26:03):
start pressing, uh, you know, to have a just pick
play here. Third base coach now has to be a
little bit better on you know, how you're sending guys
all this stuff. If your team isn't going well, he
doesn't run a basis, well do I take a chance
and take a risk? So I think if the Dodgers
just keep you know, doing what they do, running the
(26:23):
bases they can and the way they can, the way
we have seen them throughout this playoffs, Yeah, I think
it's definitely advantage for the Dodgers of the of the
way they've run the basis. And you know, we got
a guy who's at the top of the lineup on
base a lot who's gonna put a lot of pressure
on them.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Andre.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Final thing, who do you like in this World Series?
The two best teams in baseball finally meeting off in
the World Series Dodgers Yankees Game one tonight. Which way
you leaning?
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Well, I don't think that's even a question, Come on that.
You know, you know the way I lean, I always lean.
I always lean our way to the to the left
coast to l a.
Speaker 6 (26:58):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
You know, I have a lot of love, uh, you know,
for this team, a lot of love to organization. And
you know, I'm just happy, you know that they're back
in the World Series, you know where they belong playing
against on a big stage like this. You know, I
I believe our our boys in Blue are going to
pull out, uh, you know, a great World Series for
(27:19):
us and and like this team saying get us, get
us this parade in LA that's been long, long wanted, uh,
you know, for this uh city, for these fans and
deserving of you know where they've where they built this
organization back up to. And you know, I'm hoping we
get another uh a couple of year span like the
(27:39):
Yankees Dodgers had back in the late seventies and early eighties.
There we get a repeat of uh, you know, a
few had to have matchups in the World Series again,
repeating themselves for the next four or five years and
get a chance to you know, see that you know
type of baseball and build up this rivalry again. They're
just so great. But dodgering all day. World Series champs.

Heck, yeah, that's awesome.
Speaker 3 (31:42):

Speaker 2 (31:44):
Yeah, Aaron, I thought you'd be a little bit more
excited about going to Game two of the World Series.
Speaker 6 (31:49):
Right.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Are you at work right now?
Speaker 4 (31:52):
I'm getting ready for work.
Speaker 2 (31:54):
Getting ready for work, So you're at the home right now.

in a lot of ways, He's right. It is a
We are scammed, but this is no scam.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
This is no scam. Aaron. You're going to Game two
of the World Series. It's the hottest ticket in sports.
It's the biggest thing happening globally right now in the
world of sports, showing Otani, Aaron Judge, Dodgers, Yankees, and
five seventy LA sports. We're sending you to Game two
and all you had to do was sign up at
Bjay's restaurant in brew House yesterday with Rogan and Rodney,
(32:23):
and now you're a winner. How about that.
Speaker 4 (32:26):
That's awesome, man, I'm super stoked. That's so cool.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
Who are you gonna take? Do you know yet?
Speaker 7 (32:33):
I'm not sure.
Speaker 4 (32:33):
I think I might ask my dad, but I'm not
sure if he wants to try to deal with the
whole getting unto Odger Stadium on traffic.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
But I think it will be worth it.
Speaker 3 (32:41):
Aron.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
My guess is he's gonna say yes, that it's gonna
be worth going with you to Game two of the
World Series. Congratulations. We're gonna put you on a hold.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
That fact.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
We got your information, Aaron, so we will reach out
to you and get you those Game two World Series tickets.
I know a lot of disappointed Dodger fans did not
win those Game two tickets, so we appreciate you. Hanging
out yesterday with Rogan and Rodney out of Bjay's Restaurant
in brew House. Congratulations to Aaron from the nine toh
nine h he's going to Game two. I thought we
(33:11):
get a little bit more excitement at Aaron. You know, well,
I think he was. I think he was a little
bit shocked, and I think he was trying to figure
the whole thing out. But once he found out, I
think that he.
Speaker 3 (33:21):
Was all in. I mean, you heard it coming out.
They're a little bit towards the end, so he's going
to be ecstatic.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
Man.
Speaker 5 (33:27):
As far as the other people goes, they got to
have some good food and some good time, so it
wasn't a total loss.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Yeah, it'll be an exciting series if you can go great.
We were sending two listeners to game one and game two.
The hardest ticket in town. We've got CosIng tickets coming
up for a Game two of vi IIan Party. We
gave away some great chef meurto Taco party to Victor
in Pasadena. He and nineteen of his closest friends and
(33:53):
family are going to have nachos and taco's courtesy of
our friends at Chef Meurto. So it's been a fun
weekly up to this world series. Thanks for being with
us the entire week. We'll be back next week as well,
and hopefully we're talking about a two to zero Dodgers
series league going back to the Bronx with Game three
on Monday, they're gonna be by the time we get
back on the air on Monday, Saxy games one and
(34:15):
two will be in the books. Yeah, we're gonna be
hours away from games three as they play Games three, four,
and five Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday right out at New
York at the Yankee Stadium there.
Speaker 5 (34:25):
Yeah, that's gonna be great. And yeah, by the time
we talk next week, two games are in the book.
It'd be nice to get two of those. But you know,
the Yankees are coming in here and they're looking for
a split, that's all looking then, they're looking for at
least two two out of three back at Yankee Stadium.
I think the Dodgers can thwart that effort and win
them both in Yankee win Dodger Stadium. But you gotta
win number one first.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
We're gonna get your keys in just a couple of
minutes here Dodger, Bob and Malibu has been waiting way
too long. We appreciate that, Bob. Good morning, Sacks.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
Okay, it's good to talk to you guys this morning.
What an exciting day for US Angelinos here man in
US Dodgers fans.
Speaker 3 (34:59):
Yeah, no doubt about which.
Speaker 4 (35:01):
Gott Thank you guys for taking the call.
Speaker 8 (35:03):
Quick question for you guys, Steve, Yes, if you go
on the internet in the wake of the tragic news
of losing Fernando, they do not list Fernando as an
eighty eight World Series winner.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
Do you know the reason why he is not credited
for that? Steve?
Speaker 8 (35:17):
I know he was injured in the postseason, but he
did play obviously on the regular season roster.
Speaker 3 (35:21):
Is there a reason, you mean, like he wasn't part
of the team.
Speaker 8 (35:25):
That's what the Internet does not acknowledge Fernando as being
credited with the eighty eight ring.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
Yeah, and so I know he was injured that year,
so he I think he was on the roster. If
he wasn't on the roster, that's probably why they say that. However,
he was a World Series You know, he was part
of the World Series. He's go get he got a
ring for sure because he contributed to the ball club
during the season. So I'm not sure if he was
on the roster and heard at that time or not.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
He pitched in twenty three games in nineteen eighty eight.
He was five and eight. Yeah, the four twenty four
e So if you played during the regular season, I
thought you were credited with getting a ring if the
team goes on to win.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Oh, you know, he got a ring, there's no question.
Speaker 5 (36:05):
Thank you do, Dodger Bob. Yeah, he got a ring,
no doubt about it. He was part of the team.
Whether he was on I don't remember. I don't think
he was on the roster because he was hurt at
the time. Yeah, however he did get a ring for sure. Yeah,
he's he's a World Series champ, whether Wikipedia says it
or not.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
Yeah, he's a World Series champ. He was part of
our team absolutely.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Daniel and Santa Ana, welcome to Saxon Kate's and am
how you doing?
Speaker 9 (36:28):
Daniel, Hey, good morning, guys. Stayed on King will Tail
because I know what the youth speaks Spanish. But I
want to talk about Fernando real quick. How especially mister
Sax helped out because he speaks Fanish. I didn't know
that until yesterday.
Speaker 8 (36:42):
Because I didn't know until a couple of days ago.
Speaker 9 (36:44):
That mister Sax used to play in Venezuela. Yes, and
but others I want to mention on that team, where
like guys like my social Steve Garvey, both of who
played with Yeah, I think it is that we say
in Dominican Republic, Dusty Baker who played with Yaquis going
in the Mexican Pacific League, and a few others, you know,
so they wouldn't be Fernando Mania without them. I think you,
(37:05):
mister Sax, along with the other players that I mentioned,
helped them succeed in Los Angeles.
Speaker 4 (37:10):
Thanks, have a good day, Go Dodgers, buddy.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
Appreciate that. Very nice you've talked about that Saxy. Mike
Sosha mentioned it. I heard Oral Hersheiser mention it that, Yeah,
you guys were there to also kind of protect Fernando
as well at the major league level because of a
guy that starred him the language barrier. You know, you
guys looked out for him a lot in those early years. Yeah,
and of course, and he was he was so special.
(37:34):
But I want to just give a shout out there too.
At the times I played not only in Venezuela, but
I played in Mexico as well at the Siria del
caive Uh. And I just absolutely love the Mexican nation.
I love the Mexican people. They're so passionate, they know baseball,
and they're really great hearted people and they're just the best.
And so we really love Fernando and we wanted to
(37:57):
do that for him.
Speaker 3 (37:58):
All right.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
Steve's Keys to a Game, Game one World Series win,
first pitch at five. Oh wait, Garrett Cole goes for
the Yankees. Jack Flaherty goes for the Dodgers. Game one tonight,
the keys for the Dodgers to pull out of victory.
Speaker 5 (38:12):
Steve, Okay, So I'm laying in bed today this morning
at three eight am, and I'm thinking about this and
actually that's when your senses. I didn't know this, but
your senses are at their peak at about three o'clock
in the morning. And maybe that's why it came to me.
And for some reason, I'm thinking about this game, and
I'm thinking Garrett Cole, Heret Cole, and for some reason,
(38:35):
I'm not peaking that Garrett, that Garrett Cole is going
to be a factor. I mean, I think they can
get to Garrett Cole. And isn't it odd that the
caller called earlier and said that, you know, Garrett Cole's
not the bomb right now, it's it's a Carlos Rodin
And so I thought, you know, that would kind of
kind of wrap it up for me. I think the
Dodgers going to get to Garrett Cole's That's not going
(38:57):
to be the issue for me. We might have a
nine to eight game todaying on Flarity. So I think
in my in my estimation, the key is going to
be how well can Flarity keep those guys in check?
Can we get five or six innings of shove with
charity with Flarity? And if we can, we're gonna win
because I think the Dodgers will score on Garrett Cole.
(39:17):
It's the question is will the Yankees score on Flarity?
And I think if Jack can hold him a check,
that the Dodgers are going to have a nice victory tonight.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Absolutely, I don't worry about the Dodgers offense at all.
It's Jack Flarity. I think he'll get you. Yes, Yeah,
that's gonna be it, very simple, very plain on what's
going to be the reason why?
Speaker 3 (39:35):
And I think that's it.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
It's is a game one n LCS shut out innings
Jack Flarity against the Mets, or is it Game five
at City Field? Struggle to give up eight runs in
three innings? Jack Flarity? I know he was sick in
Game five, certainly dish of different stadium, different outcome, But
which one are we going to get? And down the stretch.
Even in his last couple starts with the Dodgers in
(39:57):
the regular season, it was sort of that Jeckel and Hide,
it was that which good guy we're gonna get? Which
Jack flaherity are we not going to get? In his starts?
One hundred percent. This is all on and I hate
to put the pressure on him, well fair or not,
but this is all on Jack Flarity.
Speaker 5 (40:10):
That's okay. Pressure Sometimes pressure is good. And as you said,
the last three games, he had an ERA in the sixes.
But are we gonna see something different? Are we gonna
see that Sandwich game in the playoffs where he went
seven innings and against the Mets as that Game one.
It just absolutely shoved. That's the guy that we got
to see and you know what the pressure comes with it.
You know, he applied for the job and that's part
(40:31):
of the deal. Now, am I here to hear this?
Speaker 3 (40:33):
Correct?
Speaker 2 (40:34):
I might be looking face to face as Steve Sacks
on Monday morning.
Speaker 3 (40:38):
Guess what we've got next Monday and Tuesday. We've got scam.
Speaker 2 (40:42):

five seventy Lucky Caller number five right now is getting
a taco party at home during this World Series eight
(03:56):
six six ninety eighty seven two five seven Uh. This
Game one Tonight's got the three Stars for the Dodgers,
the three Stars for the New York Yankees, Soto Judge,
Stanton Otani, Betts Freeman for the Dodgers. On paper? Is
it even Lee match?
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Saxy?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Is it is it? Starv's Star? Is there an advantage?
Either way you think, uh.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Hey, it's pretty close.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
And listen if this really says something about the Yankees,
because if you can pretty much match up against Otani
and Betts and Freeman, wow, I mean that is amazing.
But that shows you, you know, the star quality over there.
When John Carlos Stanton is on, they probably win. When
John Carlos Stanton and Judge are on, definitely gonna win.
(04:46):
When Stanton, Judge and Soto are on. Good luck, that's
that is tough to beat. So you've got to thwart
the ability of two of those guys. Judge really hasn't
gotten off the mark yet. And let's just keep it
right there. Somebody's gonna pay, but let's have it happen
in spring training.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
So there it is. It's close. I mean, it's almost
a flip, that's how good they are.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Do you nibble around those big three hitters for the
Yankees with Anthony Rizzo probably gonna be in between Judge
and Stanton.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
Some probably Yeah, I mean, you know, Rizzo, he's a
you know, this guy's a this guy's a really good player,
really good baseball player. However, he's got two broken fingers
on his right hand. Yeah, and it's that's gonna be
a matter of time before that thing heals up. I
think you, I think you bury him inside as much
as you possibly can and kind of neutralize his power.
(05:35):
He becomes then just kind of like a singles maybe
a double hitter, but he can't he can't pull the
bat through with that right hand. I saw him in
you know, in his last games. Unless something happens with
his rehab that shoots him forward. But what I saw
was he he was a guy that can just flare
it the other way right now, and you know, he's
right on top of the plate, gets hit a lot,
so he challenges the ball inside. Tough for him to
do with two broken fingers.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Let's go out to our Dodger insider, the one and
only David vasse joins now and we appreciate them being
with us today. It's gonna be a long one game
one coming up at five oh eight. He's got pre
he's got post. He'll be at the stadium all day long.
He's the best insider out there. He was out a
media day yesterday Saxy. He had an hour long Dodger
Talk last night talking to Brian Cashman, Jean Carlos, Stanton,
(06:17):
Chris Taylor, Alex Vesia. It was a who's who on
Dodger Talk last night for David vest.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
That's what David does. Yes, he's one guy that can
do that.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I mean, the rest of the media's racing to get
to Otani. David walks calm and cool as can be
to get to the media day because the players come
to him. He is David veasse, what's up, David?
Speaker 3 (06:35):
How you doing?
Speaker 6 (06:37):
Damn? I am taking you guys everywhere with me. You
just make that announcement as I walk into the clubhouse.
I'll get any interview I need.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
We'll do it for you, and we'll get the Rocky
theme going for you. David and all Saxy gave us
the greatest story of all time, David real quick.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
He said it.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
During the playoffs in nineteen eighty eight, Kenny G was
performing the national anthem and it was so bad David
that he got a baseball. John Shelby not only did
he booje on Kenny G, he threw the baseball at
Kenny G and hit him with the baseball after he
performed Yes in the ankle.
Speaker 6 (07:10):
Hey, Steve, that doesn't surprise me because John Shelby when
he was a coach with the Dodgers, he was very
judgmental of the anthem singer. He did not like the
anthem singer. He would he would shout brutal, brutal.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
Absolutely, thank you John for carrying on the tradition. Absolutely,
there you go.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah, here's the best.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I love it.
Speaker 6 (07:30):
Yeah, I love Key Bow. What a great guy.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Yep, David.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
David were a few hours away from the roster coming out,
and usually don't get too excited about the World Series
roster getting announced, but there could be some big moves
for the Dodgers affecting their bullpen, getting some arms back.
This is gonna be a big announcement a couple hours.
Speaker 6 (07:48):
Yeah. And I thought yesterday at Media Day talking to
Alex Vescia, it gave the Dodgers a big boost of
confidence that after him throwing the hitters two days ago,
he felt goot eight coming out of it. And the
reason why I point out Alexsia is because he is
the weapon to get Juan Soto out. Juan Soto in
(08:11):
four at bats against Alex Vesia in his career does
not have a hit. We saw with Alex Vesia and
how he was deployed against Sodo in the Bronx during
the summer. He is vital to the Dodgers game plan
to get these big boys out and he is the
guy to get Soto out. So it is huge to
(08:32):
have Alex Vesia healthy and ready to go in this
World Series because if they did not have Alexsia, it
has a ripple effect on a couple of different fronts.
Number One, they did have to piece it together without
him in a bullpen game during the NLCS twice. That
made it tough for Dave Roberts to navigate twenty seven outs.
(08:54):
Number Two, in the World.
Speaker 7 (08:56):
Series, like I said, Vesia is the guy to face
one Soto and whoever's hitting behind him because he's able
to get righty's and lefties out.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Yeah, you're the best. You're right, David.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
Good to be with you this morning, David, speaking of
all the pitching, I mean, just to wrap the whole
thing up. You starters against you know, LA starters against
the New York starters. Is it that the Dodgers need
to push, stretch whatever they can do. They need thirty
to thirty two innings out of those starters. And then
my second part of my question is how do the
bullpens match up with Weaver and Hill and those guys
(09:31):
on the other side against the Dodgers' bullpen.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
Well, number one, I saw Tommy Kinley's act a lot
with the Dodgers, and I wasn't impressed in the Alcs.
Only did was throw his change up, and the Dodgers
created that monster. They were the ones that told him fastball,
change up, and they obviously know what's coming from Tommy
Kinley and how to identify that change up. As far
(09:57):
as the starting pitching goes, Steve, that's odd.
Speaker 8 (10:00):
Obviously.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
If you're doing a tale of the tape, that's where
the Yankees have the advantage, right That's where they're at.
And from my understanding, talking to some players that have
watched the video, talking to people that have covered the
Yankees during the course of October, they actually told me
they believe right now Carlos Rodin has better stuff than
(10:23):
Garrett Cole. A lot of people are very nervous on
the Yankee side about what they're going to get from
Garrett Cole with the way he's pitched recently. So that's
just a little heads up on you know, the here
and now. It's one thing to look at the body
of work, but that doesn't mean a lot in the
here and now, And for what I understand the here
and now, rodn is pitching better than Garrett Cole.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
David vesa our Dodger insider with us as we are
live in local all day long leading up to first
pitch at five oh eight from the Galpum Motors broadcast
with Dodgers and Yankees David. Jack Flaherty looked calm and
cool speaking to the media yesterday. What's the vibe you
got from him in the last couple of days leading
up to this game?
Speaker 3 (11:04):
One start?
Speaker 2 (11:05):
I know he's excited. It's what he's always dreamed of.
The last time out, still got that kind of sour
taste in his mouth from Game five of the NLCS.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
Yeah. One thing about Jack Clarty, nobody knows what he's thinking.
He's a guy that keeps it very close to the vest.
I even was talking to some of his teammates and
they said, we don't even know. We don't really know
how he's feeling day to day. He doesn't really say
a lot. But my understanding is is Jack's a guy
that if the first inning goes well, he's going to
(11:35):
have a good start. If it doesn't go well, it's
going to be a rough day. So you're hoping tonight
that the first inning goes well for him. Obviously it's
not going to be easy. He's one of the tougher
first innings you're going to have to see with Juan
Soto up there and possibly Aaron Judge. So the first
inning is going to be a great tell sign. And look,
(11:57):
here's another subplot. The Yankees almost the trigger on a
trade for Jack Flaherty, but at the eleventh hour pulled
out over concerns with his back, and that's been something
that has gotten out there publicly and ever since then.
Whenever the fastball velocity is down, there's a lot of
questions about whether or not Jack is feeling great physically.
(12:19):
He hasn't said anything. Obviously, he has a lot of
money at stake. He's a free agent at the end
of the year, so he's not really going to reveal
too much on that front. But you just hope, you know,
I don't have any concerns about him. In LA the
back is easier and your body as a whole is
easier to loosen up than it is in forty degree.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Weather back East, Yeah, David.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
As far as the time off used to be a big,
big thing to talk about, you know, the rust factor
and all that. Dodgers kind of put that to bed
when they had that time off and came up and
beat which what I think is probably the second best
team in all the playoffs, the San Diego Padres took
care of them. Now you have another layoff, any tall
talk about you know, guys are rust or what's the
(13:02):
workout in preparation been like? Were they able to mimic
what they did in getting ready for the Padres?
Speaker 6 (13:09):
Actually steve to a man. All the Dodgers say the
time off was beneficial because of how banged up they
are as a team, right Freddie Freeman, and also the bullpen.
The bullpen could need it these days off to reset
for the World Series after pitching two bullpen games and
being used quite a bit. So this is a welcomed
(13:31):
five days off and it was used to get guys
right physically.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
David, we appreciate you jumping on this morning. It's going
to be a great day out of Dodgers Stadium. I
know you'll be out there in a couple of hours.
He'll hear you on Petchrol, some money, Marongo Casino, Dodgers
on deck, and of course all the postgame festivities as well.
It's a big one at city. Is a buzz for
Game one of this world series.
Speaker 6 (13:53):
Thanks TV, you to man, David Hey, thanks guys, and
John Shelby will love the national anthem today, Paisley, you'll
going to deliver better than Kenny g and eighty eight.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
I got that right, Thanks David Hey, you guys all right?
Speaker 2 (14:08):
There he goes the great David Vesse, who was at
Dodger Stadium until eight o'clock last night doing Dodger talk
and just killing it as far as his coverage is concerns.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Isn't that cool what he said? Though? I mean, you
guys even looked it up. Mike Marshall, this is arace
to America.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I love it. I love that it was it was.
I wish there's video of it. We're seeing videos of
uh Plasito what's the guy's name? Yes, yes, singing it
in the NLD NLCS as well at at Dodger Citi Voice.

LA Sports. Andre.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
Good morning to Tim with Steve is doing it?
Speaker 3 (18:33):
What's up doing?
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Fantastic Dodgers Yankees biggest stage the World Series. I know
you were in New York for the NLCS a week
or so ago. Now he got Dodgers and Yankees on
the biggest stage. How big is this for baseball? On
the Dodgers, I.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
Should just say it doesn't get any bigger than it is.
And I think you keep seeing it and you hear it,
and you know, it's really big because the amount of
hate that's coming from the other side saying that it
is a you know, doesn't mean really mean that much
because these teams are supposed to be here. But you know,
with that being said, yeah, it's a big series. You got,
you know, arguably two of the bigger sluggers, you know,
(19:12):
the biggest sluggers in the game, if not three or
four of you know, sluggers in the game that a
would be squaring off iconic franchises. Everyone knows what an
n Why Yankee hat looks like. Everyone knows what our
LA Dodgers hat looks like, you know, and it's it's
it's I just can't believe that, you know. You say,
(19:34):
it's still going to be the twelfth meeting, and it's
going to be the first time and what is it
forty three years that they've met up, and it's the
matchup of a lifetime. It really is. I'm forty two
and I've never got to see this myself and I
get to finally get a chance to see a Yankees
Dodgers world series.
Speaker 5 (19:52):
Yeah, Andre, good to be with you this morning. And
obviously this is going to be an epic battle. Looking
at this Yankee lineup with its it out a bit
with the Soto probably gonna hit second Judge, third John
Carlo down in the fits lot.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
He's probably the hottest guy on the planet.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
How do you which guy do you aim to kind
of nail, which guy you want to pitch around, or
what's kind of the weak spot that you can attack
in this Yankee lineup? It's pretty stacked.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Cool.
Speaker 4 (20:18):
Yeah, I think they've done a good job of what
they're and then you know, they added back Rizzo and
it gets even longer when that happens, and I think
you just got to, you know, pick and choose. I
think I think they they pose the same risk that
we see on the dogger side, right like we have
the keyk's, you know, the admins that you start going
(20:39):
and and hey, I'm not gonna let this guy hurt
me at the top lineup, and you start letting those
guys in the Pottle lineup have those bats that are
the high pressure and they come through. And I think
that's the same thing the Yankees have done really well
of and just have a great overall offensive balance. And yeah,
their star had that big hit in the game, that
put him over the top to you know, clinch that
(20:59):
person series. But there was a lot of offense added
from those guys who you you don't expect. I guess,
I guess it wouldn't be saying you don't expect. It's
just you know that Judge, you know that Stamp, you
know that Soto is going to get their, get their
you know, chances to make big impacts in the game.
And when they have guys at the other part of
(21:20):
the lineup stepping up, getting big hits, keeping things going,
that's when it makes it tough for you know, a
pitching staff, a team to keep going out there battling.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Andre Freddie Freeman just hasn't been the same since the
ankle injury and missed a couple of games in the
NLCS watching from the dugout because it's still bothering him
and it will continue to bother him until this postseason
is over. As a left handed hitter yourself, can you
kind of tell our listeners, you know, the right ankle sprain,
how much you need that in hitting at the plate
(21:48):
as a left handed hitter and why, you know, for
a lot of Dodger fans wondering what it's an ankle sprain.
How much does it really bothering a guy who plays
first base and is a left handed hitter. How much
you really need that right ankle in the box?
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Yeah, you know, for one, that right ankle, that's that
slide leg out on front. And you know, if you
have certain mechanics, you want to stay square to home
plate rather than you know, kind of rotated. And you know,
if everyone can kind of imagine that, you know, you
got your rectangle batter's box and you're trying to keep
yourself as square as possible towards the plate, you know,
not towards the field. And if you have to kind
(22:21):
of start opening up your front side of your foot
and the front side and rotating that front foot more
towards the playing field, more towards the pitching. You know,
the picture out there, you're starting to start losing some
of your mechanics, you start losing some of the things
that make you a great successful hitter. And by all means,
Freddy could probably go up there and hit any way possible.
He could probably go up there and hit in multiple
(22:41):
different stands with you know, the you know, hand eye
coordination to bat to the ball, that he's able to provide,
but it's not going to be the same Freddy that
everyone's used to and see, and I think that's kind
of the frustrating part for him for fans what we're seeing.
But you know, I think it's a two to three
to four week but digression of you know, his injury,
(23:01):
and I think we're right there at that four week
spot where you know, hopefully it's going to be so
it's going to be painful for him, but it's going
to be hopefully toggled enough where he can start and
get back into that comfortable stance, that comfortable position, and
start taking as soon as he wants. And then obviously
at first base, you know, it's just that side to
side that's probably what's the worst. Going going straight with
(23:23):
any acile Indy right, Steve, you know, you know that
like going straight back and forth, it's fine, but as
soon as you have to cut, as soon as you
have to turn over, so you have to get any angle,
any you know, any type of turn, especially running the bases,
get that angle where you're running. It's it's actually kind
of nice I'm thinking about now to have a right
angle spring because you're not getting over the top because
we're always turning left in baseball, right, we're always turning
(23:45):
left when we run on the basis, So he's only
have to get over the top of his left ankle.
But if he was having to get over the top
of his right angle right ankle and step over himself
to run the bases of the opposite direction, that's when
he gets painful. And you could kind of see that
when he has to go to the ball the whole
to the right side. You have to get over that ankle,
and it's probably becoming a little subtle, a little, a little,
(24:06):
you know, I guess changing the mechanic's body gets sore,
all that stuff, and you know it's kind of just
chasing that that uh, you know, that little source spot
around his body.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
Now, yeah, you know, andre I wanted to talk to
you speaking about running the bases this.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
These teams are both built, both built for slug However,
the Dodgers really have the advantage, I believe as far
as a team speed. We saw Otani go from first
to home the other day without breaking a sweat, look
like he was just having a good time dancing around
the dancing around the bases. But is this something that
could be a difference maker the overall team speed for
the Dodger. You were a gold glove outfielder, you know
(24:43):
the difference in what speed means to peek up a
little bit early when you think those guys might be
going an extra base. How about the the the advantage
of team speed and the the the pressure that it
puts on the defense.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Well, I think we can just wipe off this conversation
because he's a whole He's a whole thing of his
own right, Like I don't even know. I still can't
grasp my head around the fifty stolen bases and fifty
home runs. I mean fifty home runs. I can see
fifty sole voices is mind body? And I think Aaron, uh,
you know, Judge said it the best, Like, I mean,
(25:20):
he's the best. Let's just keep it there. It's all impressive.
But yes, uh, Dodgers their team speed, you know they
can base running speed puts a lot of pressure on defense,
and it does it in many ways. It doesn't ball
hits it infielder guy has great speed. He can beat
it out, rush Russians to field in the ball, rush
them to throw it. A lot of things can happen.
(25:41):
Same thing with you know, guys on base. Pitchers have
to change up their their wind ups, their cadences on
the mound. Maybe they're going to hang a slider now,
make a bad pitch bound something because they're focused. You know,
they're focus on the base runners a little bit more
than the hitter. We get a cookie as a hitter boom,
you know, speed does it. Same thing. All field just
makes make mistakes. It's it's across the board. Managers will
(26:03):
start pressing, uh, you know, to have a just pick
play here. Third base coach now has to be a
little bit better on you know, how you're sending guys
all this stuff. If your team isn't going well, he
doesn't run a basis, well do I take a chance
and take a risk? So I think if the Dodgers
just keep you know, doing what they do, running the
(26:23):
bases they can and the way they can, the way
we have seen them throughout this playoffs, Yeah, I think
it's definitely advantage for the Dodgers of the of the
way they've run the basis. And you know, we got
a guy who's at the top of the lineup on
base a lot who's gonna put a lot of pressure
on them.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Andre.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Final thing, who do you like in this World Series?
The two best teams in baseball finally meeting off in

excited about going to Game two of the World Series.
Speaker 6 (31:49):
Right.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Are you at work right now?
Speaker 4 (31:52):
I'm getting ready for work.
Speaker 2 (31:54):
Getting ready for work, So you're at the home right now.
Speaker 5 (31:56):
He's kind of wondering if this is a scam, and
in a lot of ways, He's right. It is a
We are scammed, but this is no scam.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
This is no scam. Aaron. You're going to Game two
of the World Series. It's the hottest ticket in sports.
It's the biggest thing happening globally right now in the
world of sports, showing Otani, Aaron Judge, Dodgers, Yankees, and
five seventy LA sports. We're sending you to Game two
and all you had to do was sign up at
Bjay's restaurant in brew House yesterday with Rogan and Rodney,
(32:23):
and now you're a winner. How about that.
Speaker 4 (32:26):
That's awesome, man, I'm super stoked. That's so cool.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
Who are you gonna take? Do you know yet?
Speaker 7 (32:33):
I'm not sure.
Speaker 4 (32:33):
I think I might ask my dad, but I'm not
sure if he wants to try to deal with the
whole getting unto Odger Stadium on traffic.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
But I think it will be worth it.
Speaker 3 (32:41):
Aron.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
My guess is he's gonna say yes, that it's gonna
be worth going with you to Game two of the
World Series. Congratulations. We're gonna put you on a hold.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
That fact.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
We got your information, Aaron, so we will reach out
to you and get you those Game two World Series tickets.
I know a lot of disappointed Dodger fans did not
win those Game two tickets, so we appreciate you. Hanging
out yesterday with Rogan and Rodney out of Bjay's Restaurant
in brew House. Congratulations to Aaron from the nine toh
nine h he's going to Game two. I thought we
(33:11):
get a little bit more excitement at Aaron. You know, well,
I think he was. I think he was a little
bit shocked, and I think he was trying to figure
the whole thing out. But once he found out, I
think that he.
Speaker 3 (33:21):
Was all in. I mean, you heard it coming out.
They're a little bit towards the end, so he's going
to be ecstatic.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
Man.
Speaker 5 (33:27):
As far as the other people goes, they got to
have some good food and some good time, so it
wasn't a total loss.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Yeah, it'll be an exciting series if you can go great.
We were sending two listeners to game one and game two.
The hardest ticket in town. We've got CosIng tickets coming
up for a Game two of vi IIan Party. We
gave away some great chef meurto Taco party to Victor
in Pasadena. He and nineteen of his closest friends and
(33:53):
family are going to have nachos and taco's courtesy of
our friends at Chef Meurto. So it's been a fun
weekly up to this world series. Thanks for being with
us the entire week. We'll be back next week as well,
and hopefully we're talking about a two to zero Dodgers
series league going back to the Bronx with Game three
on Monday, they're gonna be by the time we get
back on the air on Monday, Saxy games one and
(34:15):
two will be in the books. Yeah, we're gonna be
hours away from games three as they play Games three, four,
and five Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday right out at New
York at the Yankee Stadium there.
Speaker 5 (34:25):
Yeah, that's gonna be great. And yeah, by the time
we talk next week, two games are in the book.
It'd be nice to get two of those. But you know,
the Yankees are coming in here and they're looking for
a split, that's all looking then, they're looking for at
least two two out of three back at Yankee Stadium.
I think the Dodgers can thwart that effort and win
them both in Yankee win Dodger Stadium. But you gotta
win number one first.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
We're gonna get your keys in just a couple of
minutes here Dodger, Bob and Malibu has been waiting way
too long. We appreciate that, Bob. Good morning, Sacks.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
Okay, it's good to talk to you guys this morning.
What an exciting day for US Angelinos here man in
US Dodgers fans.
Speaker 3 (34:59):
Yeah, no doubt about which.
Speaker 4 (35:01):
Gott Thank you guys for taking the call.
Speaker 8 (35:03):
Quick question for you guys, Steve, Yes, if you go
on the internet in the wake of the tragic news
of losing Fernando, they do not list Fernando as an
eighty eight World Series winner.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
Do you know the reason why he is not credited
for that? Steve?
Speaker 8 (35:17):
I know he was injured in the postseason, but he
did play obviously on the regular season roster.
Speaker 3 (35:21):
Is there a reason, you mean, like he wasn't part
of the team.
Speaker 8 (35:25):
That's what the Internet does not acknowledge Fernando as being
credited with the eighty eight ring.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
Yeah, and so I know he was injured that year,
so he I think he was on the roster. If
he wasn't on the roster, that's probably why they say that. However,
he was a World Series You know, he was part
of the World Series. He's go get he got a
ring for sure because he contributed to the ball club
during the season. So I'm not sure if he was
on the roster and heard at that time or not.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
He pitched in twenty three games in nineteen eighty eight.
He was five and eight. Yeah, the four twenty four
e So if you played during the regular season, I
thought you were credited with getting a ring if the
team goes on to win.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Oh, you know, he got a ring, there's no question.
Speaker 5 (36:05):
Thank you do, Dodger Bob. Yeah, he got a ring,
no doubt about it. He was part of the team.
Whether he was on I don't remember. I don't think
he was on the roster because he was hurt at
the time. Yeah, however he did get a ring for sure. Yeah,
he's he's a World Series champ, whether Wikipedia says it
or not.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
Yeah, he's a World Series champ. He was part of
our team absolutely.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Daniel and Santa Ana, welcome to Saxon Kate's and am
how you doing?
Speaker 9 (36:28):
Daniel, Hey, good morning, guys. Stayed on King will Tail
because I know what the youth speaks Spanish. But I
want to talk about Fernando real quick. How especially mister
Sax helped out because he speaks Fanish. I didn't know
that until yesterday.
Speaker 8 (36:42):
Because I didn't know until a couple of days ago.
Speaker 9 (36:44):
That mister Sax used to play in Venezuela. Yes, and
but others I want to mention on that team, where
like guys like my social Steve Garvey, both of who
played with Yeah, I think it is that we say
in Dominican Republic, Dusty Baker who played with Yaquis going
in the Mexican Pacific League, and a few others, you know,
so they wouldn't be Fernando Mania without them. I think you,
(37:05):
mister Sax, along with the other players that I mentioned,
helped them succeed in Los Angeles.
Speaker 4 (37:10):
Thanks, have a good day, Go Dodgers, buddy.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
Appreciate that. Very nice you've talked about that Saxy. Mike
Sosha mentioned it. I heard Oral Hersheiser mention it that, Yeah,
you guys were there to also kind of protect Fernando
as well at the major league level because of a
guy that starred him the language barrier. You know, you
guys looked out for him a lot in those early years. Yeah,
and of course, and he was he was so special.
(37:34):
But I want to just give a shout out there too.
At the times I played not only in Venezuela, but
I played in Mexico as well at the Siria del
caive Uh. And I just absolutely love the Mexican nation.
I love the Mexican people. They're so passionate, they know baseball,
and they're really great hearted people and they're just the best.
And so we really love Fernando and we wanted to
(37:57):
do that for him.
Speaker 3 (37:58):
All right.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
Steve's Keys to a Game, Game one World Series win,
first pitch at five. Oh wait, Garrett Cole goes for
the Yankees. Jack Flaherty goes for the Dodgers. Game one tonight,
the keys for the Dodgers to pull out of victory.
Speaker 5 (38:12):
Steve, Okay, So I'm laying in bed today this morning
at three eight am, and I'm thinking about this and
actually that's when your senses. I didn't know this, but
your senses are at their peak at about three o'clock
in the morning. And maybe that's why it came to me.
And for some reason, I'm thinking about this game, and
I'm thinking Garrett Cole, Heret Cole, and for some reason,
(38:35):
I'm not peaking that Garrett, that Garrett Cole is going
to be a factor. I mean, I think they can
get to Garrett Cole. And isn't it odd that the
caller called earlier and said that, you know, Garrett Cole's
not the bomb right now, it's it's a Carlos Rodin
And so I thought, you know, that would kind of
kind of wrap it up for me. I think the
Dodgers going to get to Garrett Cole's That's not going
(38:57):
to be the issue for me. We might have a
nine to eight game todaying on Flarity. So I think
in my in my estimation, the key is going to
be how well can Flarity keep those guys in check?
Can we get five or six innings of shove with
charity with Flarity? And if we can, we're gonna win
because I think the Dodgers will score on Garrett Cole.
(39:17):
It's the question is will the Yankees score on Flarity?
And I think if Jack can hold him a check,
that the Dodgers are going to have a nice victory tonight.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Absolutely, I don't worry about the Dodgers offense at all.
It's Jack Flarity. I think he'll get you. Yes, Yeah,
that's gonna be it, very simple, very plain on what's
going to be the reason why?
Speaker 3 (39:35):
And I think that's it.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
It's is a game one n LCS shut out innings
Jack Flarity against the Mets, or is it Game five
at City Field? Struggle to give up eight runs in
three innings? Jack Flarity? I know he was sick in
Game five, certainly dish of different stadium, different outcome, But
which one are we going to get? And down the stretch.
Even in his last couple starts with the Dodgers in
(39:57):
the regular season, it was sort of that Jeckel and Hide,
it was that which good guy we're gonna get? Which
Jack flaherity are we not going to get? In his starts?
One hundred percent. This is all on and I hate
to put the pressure on him, well fair or not,
but this is all on Jack Flarity.
Speaker 5 (40:10):
That's okay. Pressure Sometimes pressure is good. And as you said,
the last three games, he had an ERA in the sixes.
But are we gonna see something different? Are we gonna
see that Sandwich game in the playoffs where he went
seven innings and against the Mets as that Game one.
It just absolutely shoved. That's the guy that we got
to see and you know what the pressure comes with it.
You know, he applied for the job and that's part
(40:31):
of the deal. Now, am I here to hear this?
Speaker 3 (40:33):
Correct?
Speaker 2 (40:34):
I might be looking face to face as Steve Sacks
on Monday morning.
Speaker 3 (40:38):
Guess what we've got next Monday and Tuesday. We've got scam.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
Yes in studio live and in studio together again. And
it feels so good. We're gonna be scamming in the studio.
Love it cannot wait. Monday morning, six am. We'll be
back together in studio here on a f I seventy
